INFORMATION WANTED.-On Saturday morn
young man about twenty years of age, who had
been working at mining near Greasertown, for
Messrs E. E. Latimer & Co., drew his wages
amounting to one hundred and thirty dollars
and started for home, one mile and a half dis
tant. Nothing has been heard of him since
that time and as he was young man of steady
habits, it is supposed that he has fallen q vic
tim to the highwayman, or put out of the way
bv some influence that cannot be accounted for
Any information of said Perkins will be thank
fully received by his parents, residing at the
old Pelham ranch.

Big LOAD OF FREIGHT.-The largest load of
freight ever brought into San Andreas, arrived
on last Monday in Mr.. Leroy Smiths wagon
the freight was shipped by the Forwarding and
Freighting House of Mr.. Joseph D. Peters
1900 pounds of which were for Messrs. Ben
jamin Mcdonnell The types in our last is
sue made US say that Mr. Peters large wagon
had 10000 pounds of freight for Murphy's,
there to be transhipped to Carson Valley. We
had written the Rough and Ready carried that
amount in weight, of wheat, from ranch into
the city of Stockton Reynolds & Kettles
large wagon, the Pioneer, once carried $4,000
pounds of barley, hauled by eight mules from
their ranch to Stockton. Of course it is i'm
possible to haul such loads through the noun
tains, although fifteen to twenty thousand
pounds is frequently hauled on two wagons,
with six, eight and ten mules. We heartily
endorse Mr.. Peters enterprise, in opening the
Carson Valley trade, and by freighting on rea-
sonable terms, we believe he will do more to
secure that trade to this route and to Stockton,
than any other man.

TEHuANTEPEc RoUTE-The State Journal has
received some information from Hon. J. w
McCorkle, which is of much interest to Califor-
mans. That paper says:
awe are informed by Hon. j. w McCorkle,
that he had long conversation, the day before
he left New York, with G. X. Garrison, in the
presence of Mr.. Vanderbilt, when Mr.. Garrison
told him that all the difficulties between him.
self and Vanderbilt had been compromised, and
that they had commenced operations, and ex-
pected to have the route open for the transit of
passengers in about sixty days. 1t is contem-
plated to make the passage from New York to
San Francisco in nineteen days. Tile price of
passage will be about one-half less than the
rates now charged by the Pacific Mail Steam
ship Company Mr.. McCorkle says that the
line will be in successful operation as soon as
Mr.. Garrison expects. Several large steamers
have been built for this route and are now on
their way to California, while others are in rapid
course of construction. Steerage passengers
by this route, will be carried through for fifty
dollars and first class cabin passengers for one
hundred and fifty. vi Turner, Esq., formerly
of San Francisco, has been appointed the agent
at Tehuantepec. Before Mr.. McCorkles depart
ure, Col. Sloo and Mr.. Turner had left for the
Isthmus"

a decided preference for B. F. Marshall, of MUIR
phys, Eustace Parker, of Campo Seco, and
Thomas O'Brien, of Albany Flat. The Conven-
tion adjourned to eat drink and be merry, ana
to meet again next day at o'clock A. M. Many
delegates left for home, not being willing to take
up their permanent residence here on so short
notice. Votes by proxy were granted, and'a
hard task it was for the proxies to remember
all the names and learn to pronounce all the
different aliases by which they intended TO DE
called on the morrow. But still enough did not
leave for home to give each remaining one
bed, and quite number went to Sprawl's again.
The high Sheriff has been in town all the time
think from the fact that he would go right
into rery interesting crowd and have little
side conversation, that he must have been over
here to collect delinquent - but belive he dld
not have occasion to make a deposit OF any he
collected Again the heavens were darkened
by clouds and ilumined by flashes of lightning,
and while it stormed outside, peace and silence
did not rest like an incubus upon the town
Considerable trading was done during the even
ing and morning, for liquors at least, and some
who had been quite certain OF nomination in
side, began to think it was quite cloudy outside.
AT o'clock A. NJ, third day, the Convention
met pursuant to adjournment. Some of the
wire-pullers being absent (at home, who lived
within a few miles) they proceeded to the nom
ination of Assessor, Coroner, and Superinten-
dent of Common Schools, instead of commen-
ing where they left off, which resulted in the
choice of G. Johnson, of Reynolds Ferry, for
Assessor; Dr. P. Goodwin, of San Andreas, for
Coroner; and Judge Thompson, of Mokelumne
Hill, for Superintendent of Common Schools;
after which they again commenced balloting for
Representatives, which finally resulted in the
nomination of B. F. Marshall, Eustace Parker
and Thomas OBrien. The latter gentleman is
one of the oldest settlers of this place, and q
quartz miner. lHem.-Also, some ladies in the
county, got each one vote for the Assembly.
Mr.. James Finnegan, one of the delegates to
the State Convention, is most bitterly opposed
to the instructions that have been given the
delegates, to vote for Mr.. Weller. He said in
the Convention, that Mr.. Norman had Ia
Jeled them, all ready for shipping, Glass, right
side mp aciM cQre,' and that he, for one, would
not go to the State Convention to vote under
any such restrictions.
But, take it all together, they have made noni-
nations that as far as can judge, will be
cheerfully supported by the party, and many of
them are the choice of all parties.
WELL the 4th, our glorious independence Day
will soon be here, and will close this with the
sage remark: after a storm it is always calm.

New ARRIVAL OF CONCORD CoAcHEs-An in
voice of fine Concord coaches and wagons, pur-
chased from the manufacturers by Messrs. A.
\. Fisher Co., of this city, arrived at San
Francisco few days since on the clipper-ship
Rmgieader from Boston, and were landed upon
the Levee yesterday. The invoice comprises four
hrst-class coaches, and also four large wagons
for use in winter time all of which are destined
to run over the various stage routes from this
city. In addition to the coaches, Messrs Fisher
Co. have imported complete setts of harness
for one hundred and forty horses, contemplating
as we lcarn to establish as early as practicable,
a line of coaches to Carson Valley, over the Big
Tree route The future opens brilliant pros
pect for this new route of westward emigration,

ground with line of coaches, will most as

From Carson Valley.

Mr.. Joseph D. Peters and Mr. q. X. Bowen,
arrived in this place on Thursday evening, di-
rect from Carson Valley. They report every
thing at the Valley in prosperous, progress
siye condition. The teams, some seventeen in
number, were entering Genoa, Carson Valley,
all safe, on last Tuesday, the day Messrs Peters
and Bowen left. The teams would immediate
ly return for more goods. The people of Genoa
will rely entirely on Stockton or intervening
points for their future supply of goods Mer-
chandize can be safely and speedily delivered
at Genoa from Stockton, even with the roads
in their present unimproved condition. at u
cents per pound. The Mormon trade from Salt
Lake will, in future, take the Big Tree route,
and 1t is in contemplation by certain parties to
supply the Government troops (Gen. Harney's
command of two thousand regulars, with pro-
visions hauled over this route. Salt Lake is
much nearer, and more convenient to San Fran
CISCO than to Independence, Missouri. Messrs
Peters and Bowen drove, in light buggy, from
Murphy's to Genoa in two days, easy drive, over
a good road, and returned in the same time
and using the same horse to make the trip with
which they drove from Stockton. They report
the Improvements now being made by Mr.
Shearer, to be Of substantial nature, and such
as to reflect much credit on the Superintendent
Substantial and durable bridges have been built
in several places, and much grading in Carson
Canon made. Mr.. Shearer will continue the
work with redoubed vigor and increased force,

halfway house, is much needed at the Big

doubt he will do we'll in the enterprise. Messrs.
Alvin N. Fisher, stage proprietor, and Louis

EARTHQUAKES SOUTH AND NORTH OF Us-On
Sunday, June 2lst at about o'clock A. NJ.
says the Pacific Sentinel, many of the people of
Santa Cruz were aroused from their slumbers
by violent shock of an earthquake. It gave
two oscillations from the northwest to the south
east, and by those who were awake at the time
it was thought to be full as severe as any of
the shakes of last winter.
While this hurly-burly has been going on to
the south of US, we find something of the same
sort happening at the north. The editor ofth
Trinity Journal, (Weaverville) has bnen in
formed by gentleman from Humboldt Bay
that about ten days ago there was shock of
an earthquake at that place which threw the
bottles and other articles from the shelves in
the stores in Union City, Humboldt Bay, and
brought some of the inhabitants to their knees
they thinking the comet had come and no mis-
take.-Bulletin.

Fourth of July.

This day awakens feelings of thrilling Joy IN
the bosoms of Coumbias sons. 1t brings 1orth
memories of patriotic beroism. 1t IS freedom
birthday, and with exulting pride, freemen re-
we're it. When the signers of the glorious
Declaration of independence announced that
they pledged "their lives, their fortunes and
their sacred honor against tyrannic encroach-
ments, a new era dawnsd upon the civilized
world. Like rays of light its influence di-
verged and was felt throughout earths remotest
bounds. A great nation sprang forth-the ad-
miration of the world-and her destiny is to
bestow liberty to all lands. Is there man
who does not boast that he is an American cit
izen, who does not recount the glorious deeds
of the Heroes of the Revolution-deeds which,
"when granite moulders and when records
fail, will remain impressed upon the hearts of
all true patriots? The Union of these States
was cemented by the blood Of our forefathers.
split upon many hard fought field; when
scarcely ray of hope beamed forth they taltered
not, but were determined to do or die. Heaven
crowned their efforts with success-the bless
ings of that success we now enjoy. Impious is
he who would decry the union of the States
cursed be the heart that would create national
differences, and which would desire the Union
to be dissolved. The demoniac cry of fanatics
meets with no response from those who proper
ly appreciate liberty. Let all dissentions be-
tween our countrymen be healed let brotherly
love be the watchword let us stand by the
Union, and nail its colors to the mast of the
Constitution" On this, the glorious Fourth,
let every one join in saying that no act or word
of his shall ever tend to disloyalty to our coun-
try; on this, the great Sabbath of Liberty, let
us kneel at her shrine and fervently pray the
God Of nations to preserve US as united peo-
pie; to bestow harmony of feeling throughout
the land, and to guide us in promoting "peace,
prosperity and happiness"
This day should be celebrated by US all with
deep neutrality-suspicious. ourselves with the
reflection that we are citizens of I" the land of
the free and the home of the brave" All ami
mosities-personal and political-should be for
gotten, and as brothers we should greet one
another. IF the fires of patriotism have slum-
bered let them be rekindled in every breast,
and ever after kept alive and watched over
with vestal vigilance. Our prominent thought
should be, love of our land, and with great
patriot, ever exclaim, "Our Country our whole
Country, and nothing but our Country"
