damage va. done. The on , damage done
in this city, was the unroodng OF the new
building belonging to j. 7. BALDWIN. The
building was no, completed-the wind had
fall access TO the windows and doors-the
consequence Of which was the raising OF the
roof from the building, and deposiilng 1t
upon the ground several rods from where
the workmen had left it the day before
The brick work was somewhat injured
portion of the front wall, on the second
story, was displaced, and fell TO the ground
However, the damage done was not very
serious, and can be repaired in fe" days

Gen. Walker.

Byles, of the New York Tribune, has
seen flhbuster Walker, and thus describes
him: II must say of him as Quinn did of
Macklin, that 'God wrote legible hand,
meanness are to be read there in capital
letters, and logged obstinacy, but with no
admixture of any intellectual quality, not
even cunning, the lowest of all. 'His COM
plexion is perfect gallows.' Any intelli-
gent jury would hang him on the evidence
Of his face alone, were he on trial for any
of his murders. A more villainous counte-
nance Inever encountered in my experience,
and trust may never see such another,
especially in lonely place, toward night
fall.

q The New York Courier and Enquirer
Publishes its usual monthly statement Of ma
rine losses, which, for the past month, shows
an aggregate of twenty-slx vessels, of which
two were steamships, three were ships, eight
were banks, three briggs and ten schooners.-
The total value of the property lost was
eight hundred and nineteen thousand and
FIVE hundred dollars. This is tho value of
the property totally lost, exclusive of DANA
ges to vessels not amo uniting to total loss,
and partial losses of cargo. This is the first
monthly statement this year which exhibits
total Of less than million of dollars. The
milder season, and the extraordinary num-
Der Of vessels out of employ combine to pro-
duce this result.

one Of the finest lots of lumber ever brought

with the o-aheadativensss of our citizens,
and the number Of bui!dingsin contemp!a-

STEAMER SAM SoULE.-The California
Navigation Company's steamer ''Sam Soule''
arrived at our landing yesterday. By ref
erence to our advertising columns, it will be
seen that this steamer will hereafter ply as
a regular packet between this place and
Marysville. This is indeed an era in the
history of Oroville, and the enterprise
should receive the united support of our citi-
zens. for upon its success depends the future
prosperity and Importance of the town. By
this arrangement, the goods of our mer-
chants are but 8 hours from Marysville, and
need be but about sixteen from Sacramento
The passage can be made from Oroville to
Sacramento by the river in ten hours, if the
nee essary connection be made al Marysville.
Business men will at once see the advanta-
ges afforded by receiving their goods per
steamer, as they are not only delivered "a
hours soonrs from Marysville, but barge
freighted at Sacramento, will arrive in Orc
vile in 16 hours time, thus saving handling
carriage and storage on the way. Our bust
ness men should remember to order their
goods shipped by the Navigation Co.
