WANTED TO KNOW HOW IT FELT.-A very
peculiar suicide took place at Watertown,
Mass, few weeks since. A young man
named Weston Bird, was discovered suspen-
ded by the neck to his bedpost. perfectly
dead. The singular part of the affair is, that
there was no cause for the act-Bird being
in excellent health and spirits, successful IN
business, and surrounded by friends An
exchange, in speaking of the case, suggests
that curiosity was the cause, supposing
the young man to have a great desire to
know what the sensations produced by hang
ing really were. This may be so. but if it
is, Mr. Bird must have been tremendously
curious man.

ARREsr OF ACoUNTERFE1TER.--A young
man namel J, Chancey Farley, says the Sac

Sutter county, on Sunday, having in his pos
session counterfeit money and dies. Two Of
fcers started with him on the evening of that
day, to lodge him for safe keeping in the Ma
rysville Jail. About six miles from Marys-
Vile, near o'clock in the evening, the party
halted at public house to refresh and while
the officers were so engaged, Farley gave
them the slip, and made his way alone to
Marysyille, where he went on board the
steamer Gov Dana, about o'clock yester-
day morning, and came on to this city. On
the way down he attempted to palm off a
counterfeit coin on the keeper, and on
landing was arrested and conducted to the
station house by officers Gay and Bishop.

of the members of that body receiving their

A Steamboat TO OrOville.

Abiding to an article that appeared In
the Record few days since. the Sacramento
Union makes the following sensible remarks;
As Oroville is greatly more interested than
any other point, it strikes US that il would
be an excellen. idea for the citizens of that
fourishing town to have a complete survey
of the river made, and an estimate formed of
the probable cost Of removing snags and put
ting the river in boatable order. We're the
river cleared of snags, we suppose no very
great difficulties would be met in navigating
it for a portion of the winter, and while the
volume of water was increased by the rains
and melting snow.
If boats can be run to Oroville for four
months in the year. only, it would add in.
calculably to the growth, prosperity, and
trade of the town. With fair navigat ..on,
Orovile should, from its favorable location,
become one of the most important towns and
trading points in the interior. 1t is situated
to command a large portion of the trade OF
any population which may settle upon the
forks Of Feather River, and those forks, with
their tributaries, drain very extensive
mining and mountain agricultural section OF
the State.
But, to control the trade of that large sec
ton, it is necessary that 0rovile should
possess the advantages of steamboat or rail
road communication. The latter she will
doubtless have in few years, and probably
little extra exertion, and the expenditure
Of few thusand dollars, may give her a
steamboat communication with this city.
We're the river cleared out, the Steam Nav
igation Company, We are sure, would put a
line of boats upon it-provided the water
will justify it. They ran boats, last summer,
to Red Bluffs, on the Sacramento, when they
had only fifteen inches of water on the bars,
and among snags so thick that, to the eye Of
the passenger, it seemed impossible for the
steamer to find an opening sufficiently broad
infer that the Feather river would afford
more water on its bars above than below the
mouth of the Yuba. These are matters
however, which should be fully investigated
by tie business men and property holders
in 0roville. Let them show to the country
that the river upon which their rapidly
growing town is situated, can be navigated,
and then, if the Steam Navigation Company
neglect to put on boats let them build boat
and demonstrate the fact that the thing can
be done.

New YORK DRINKERs.-Judge Capron, at
the Union Temperance meeting held in the
Tabernacle in New York states as the result
of his own Investigations, that in New York
city there are fifteen thousand grog shops,
and four hundred thousand drunkards. At
the very least calculation, each of those
drink two gills of intoxicating liquors every
day being S00,O gallons or SOC barrels
per day 100000 barrels in a year. This
quantity would make reservoir 100 feet
long, 50 feet wide, and 81 feet deep; equal
to 3,744 cubic feet ,and could float four large
ships in full sail At $50 90 per barrel it
amounts to S0.000,00O 10000 children
never enter the school. During the last
year 60. coo arrests have been made, and
$4,000 convictions. AT the Court of Special
Sessions, during the last year, 5000 cases
were tried, of which there were 200 con-
victions Not more than "a of the subjects
of these trials were sober when arrested
not more than l94 who were habituallly So
Der persons. Paupers cost the city $2,00O,-
900 year.
