THE FIRE OF MoNDAY-We have endea-
vored to trace the origin of the fire as given
by US on Tuesday, to a reliable source, and
have been unable to do so. Mr.. Woodward
from whom We received the information on
Monday evening, must have been entirely
decei we'd in the matter. Neither of the boys
represented in the report were near the
theatre when the fire broke out. The per-
son who had charge of the theatre was in
the Office, and cannot tell how it origina-
ted Under the circumstances, we are
forced to the conclusion that it was the work
of an incendiary. This is also the opinion
of Messrs. Bird & Morris, proprietors of the
theatre. who lost all their valuable papers.
1t was commenced trife too early if it was
fired for the purpose of plunderiDg the town,
as it was efiectually subdued before sunset,
and strong force of the citizens police,
was effectual in preventing further depreda-
tons

MURDER AND RoBBERY-The Coroner
on Wednesday evening was called upon to
hold an inquest on the body of Chinaman
found lying a short distance from the road
in the upper part of Columbus. None OF
the Cinnamon in that vicinity could recog-
nize him, and verdict was rendered that
he came to his death by blows inflicted with
blunt instrument, by some person or per-
sons unknown to the jury. After the in
quest. the Coroner was informed by Chi
naman named Sien Yet, that the deceased
had recently arrived in Oroville, and went
over to Columbus on Tuesday, with two
hundred dollars for the purpose of purchas
ing a mining claim. We are under obliga-
tions to Mr.. Harlow, county Coroner for the
above facts.

ASSAULT AND BATTERY Yesterday
morning, before daylight, man of the name
of Murter, who was somewhat intoxicated,
on Montgomery street, and in CONSEQUENCE e
of some severe language got into quarrel
with Patrick Bradley and John McElwain.
Murter struck Bradley, and Bradley pro-
ceeded to give Murter a wholesome drub-
bing Murter, however, was dissat isfed,
and entered complaint before Justice Eli
oft. The case was examined yesterday, and
il appearing to the satisfaction Of the just
ice and DistrictAttorney that Murter was
the assailant, the defendants, Messrs Brad
ley and McElwain, were honorably dis
charged.

desperate Encounter With a Gr,uuly.

We learn from Mr. Jones, who returned
ON yesterday from the vicinity of Pine
Greek, the following particulars of desper-
ate encounter with large Grizzly Bear,
which occurred near that place on Tuesday
last A man named Fields was engaged in
trapping Grizzlies, and had succeeded in
securing one of magnificent proportions,
whose muscular power. we understand, will
soon be displayed in Jones Amphitheatre.
Mr. F. was engaged in the vicinity, hunting
for deer with which to regale his impris-
oned majesty, when he scared up Bruins
wife and two cubs. The first intimaton he
had of their unwelcome presence, was
snort from the enraged old widow, which
would have done credit to the hoarse steam
whistle of the Sam Soule, gracefully rid
ing the navigable waters of the magnif-
cent and broad bosomed Feather River at
Oroville, as she emerged from the chapparal
within fifteen feet of him. He Immediately
fired upon her, and turned to run; but she
succeeded in tanglipg his legs, and bringing
him to the ground, when fearful struggle
eusued. The bear was evidently injured in
The neck or head by the shot, or Mr. Fields
could never have escaped. He punched her
off with his gun. until that was thrown from
him, when he jammed his feet and elbows
into her mouth, as opportunity offered to
prevent her from getting mouthful. and
they were lacerated in frightful manner.
He was also severely bitten in the back, the
wounds being inflicted in such manner as
leads to the belief that the Bears Jaw was
broken They rolled down bank some
three or four feet high, when one o. his dogs
came to the rescue, and making an uuex-
pected attack in the rear, gave Mr.. T. time
to reload his gun, and send a fatal shot into
the bear
Throwing away his gun, he managed to
reach camp, distant about four miles
His wounds were dressed as we'll as their
camp arrangements would permit. Mr..
Jones thinks his recovey somewhat doubt
full. The wounded man is of the opinion
that Dave Crockett never encountered a
genuine Grizzly.

HONEY LAKE RoUTE.-The Marysville
Express of Tuesday, reviewing the various
routes for wagon road into California,
closes a lengthy and able article as follows.
If Sacramento would consult the true inter-
ests of the State, she would speak out in the
same sensible manner, and wagon road to
the Humboldt can be completed for less than
ne-eighth the amount unconstitutionally
appropriated for the route through Ell Do
RADIO county.
ave will take occasion to express our firm
conviction, that this last named route is the
shortest, most direct, and cheapest route,
that has ever attracted the public attention,
and we are also assured that it no. only
goes direct to the point where the govern
ment road is to make, but in such manner
and over such country, as to ensure the
travel to this point. Should the matter cx-
cite any portion OF the public attention, we
shall agpin refer to it"

advance of general knowledge has complete

not shocked, to read the following, which

ry Goth:
Five years ago boy named Levi Phil
lips hung himselfin his fathers barn, in
Nassau, Rensselaer, county. The suicide
caused no excitement at the time. But a
while ago spirit medium had revelation.
He invoked the boys spirit, which related
how his mother, accidentally detected in a
criminal relation with him, had killed him
in his sleep-driven nail in his skill and
hung him up afterwards. The excitement
caused oy the revelation was so great that
the Coroner and Assistant District Attor-
ney Of Rensselaer,, attended by many hun
dreds of people, disinterred the coffin of the
hoy. But the skull was found perfect in
every part, and verdict was rendered, as
other testimony showed that he came to his
death by his own act. But what horrible
accusation, and what sad necessity on the
part Of the magistratel

ATTEMPT TO FIRE MUSICAL HALL.-Dep-
uty Sheriff Goodrich, and another person,
who we're ON watch Monday evening, de-
teeted a rascal in an attempt to fire Musical
Hall. He had placed ladder at one of the
rear windows, and was in the act OF ascend
inc when they discovered him. He succeed
ed in escaping them, by exhibiting race
horse speed into the suburbs OF the town.
As there was nothing in the room for him to
steal. it is supposed he contemplated firing
the building. He was fortunate in not be-
ing caught in the act.

officers. but their assailants had fled.

SDrveyinx Roads

Events have transpired in such rapid sue
cession during the week, that we have not
found time to refer to the imposition practis-
ed upou the county, and in opposition to the
interests of Oroville, particularly, in the
matter of road surveys between this point
and Jacks Ranch These surveys were
made under the direction of Judge Lewis. at
the time the County seat question was in
agitation, and were designed to convince the
voting public of Butte county that Bidwell
was the only accessible point in the county
and that it was impossible to make a road to
any other place. We have letter from
Judge Lewis, written at Sacramento, during
the session of 1856, while he was at the
State Capitol, lobbying bill through the
pervisors to pay him fifty thousand dollars
for his Bridge, urging these surveys and
pointing out the manner in which the routes
should be run. We may conclude to pub
fish it at some future time.
The road to the junction as surveyed IN
der the above mentioned direction, runs
south from Oroville to Lynchburg, thence
east to the Miners Ranch, and from thence
In northwesterly direction to the Junction.
This survey was introduced before the Board
of Supervisors, as evidence to show that
it was higher to Jacks Ranch, via Bdwell,
than by the Junction. to defeat the applica-
ton for ferry at the latter place. 1t was
defeated but whether it was done by the
powerful influence of the rams horn route,
or by the insufilciency of testimony on the
part of the application, we know not. We
do not suppose the Board of Supervisors
were bought, because we know that one Of
them respectfully declined Judge Lewis
offer to furnish him with money to make the
canvass
We have felt deep interest in this mat
ter. for the reason that road to the juno
ton would permit the immense trade of
Plumas to pass through 0roville. If we
continue to send that travel and trade
around by the Miners Ranch, we cannot
expect them to ship their goods here, for
that point is within twenty-four miles OF
Marysville, and with the means at the
command of that city, they can always Sc
cure this vast trade, whatever our facilities
for transportation may be. We desire tina;
this trade may pass through Oroville, and il
they coul d find it to their advantage to ship
their goods to this point, or to make their
purchases here, it would add materially to
our commercial Importance. If they COZ
pass to any point below by more direct
and better route than that now travelled
These are the motives that have actuated US
and we are still strong in the faith that the
ferry will be established, and that we shall
yet have the privilege of seeing the wagons
and pack trains of Plumas loading in our
streets. The course now pursued by our
county authorities upon this question, is
wrong, and will meet with a speedy con-
demnation. Their sacrifice of the public
interest to that of individuals, places the in
habitants of the valley portion of the county
in the position of Russian serfs, instead OF
that of American citizens.

NEARLY ANOTHER FIRE About nine
O'Clock last evening, our citizens were again
startled by the cry of fire, proceeding from
n house on the corner of Montgomery and
Downer streets, occupied as cigar store. by
a woman of equivocal reputation. 1t was
caused by the falling of camphene lamp,
which it appears had been suspended by
niece of string. Such gross carelessness de-
serves the reprobation of the community,
and we confess little sympathy with agriev-
ed parties at hearing sundry propositions to
Sc duck" them.

of brogans, when the enemy bore alongside,
captured and took him into the Jer -dicial
