wears on without an event to break the
monotony.
There is much anxiety manifested in
the community, lest Moore should es-
cape, or that another delay for years, as
in the case of Hall, convicted of killing
a Chinaman, should occur, to the haz
ard and expense of the good citizens of
the county. We hope these things will
be taken into consideration by the Su-
preme Court, and dispose of the case
quickly. Discomfort will be universal
in this county, if dispatch is not had
Already it breaks out decidedly and
plainly.
STAGING EXTRAORDINARY.-6 MILE
HEAT.-On Monday last, while the re-
turn stage from Alpha, A. S. Olin's line,
was watering at jenkins, Mr.. S. L.
Bridge, the driver being dismcunted, the
horses were started by commands given
another. horse hitched in front of the
house, and left at full speed. Two pas
sengers were inside at the time, one of
whom threw himself ozt with no injury.
The other, a cripple, was obliged to
take his chances in the vehicle. The
horses, four in number, swept along the
road, turning all its angles, winding
along its sinuosities, avoiding trees and
rocks, and crossing bridges, with the ut
most precision and finally brought up
in front of the American Exchange, af-
ter 1un of six miles over a crooked,
rough and dangerous road, with nothing
but whifletree broken! and the Grip
pie still inside, badly scared, but not
otherwise injured The horses appa-
rently were not frightened, nor had
they probably, the least idea of running
away, and they only manifested the us
ual symptoms of animals after hard
drive
This is specimen of what our stages
can do without driver :
THEATRE.-The Metropolitan troupe
of which Miss Louisa Sweet, La Petite
Lolita, and Miss Arabella are the princi-
pal attractions, performed at Frisbie's
on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.
The houses were slim Miss Louisa
did not come up to expectations. La
Petite Lolita, however, made up the de-
ficiency. Indeed she has &C nsiderable
talent or art, whatever it may be called,
in her line. She is pretty danscusc
for one so young, and sings well for a
child. Miss Arabella pleased the au-
dience much The company labored
under great disadvantages, in coming
after Stark and other successful theatre
Gals. We wish them better success
another time.

DuTcH FLAT ITEMs.-A correspon-

ter from which we extract the following
items:
The Americans are in good heart.
and swear they will vote for none but
Americans whatever course may be pur-
sued by the party in other parts of the
State.
Water is about being brought into the
place in large quantities. The miners
nave already subscribed four thousand
days work at 50 per day, for the com
pletion of the Placer County Canal, to
be paid in water at twenty-five cents an
inch when the water is in, which will
take place by the first of November.
The diggings pay remarkably wei
when water can beobtained.
