\ New ExcITENgST.-We are informed that
the Frazer river excitement has been thrown
into the back ground by new excitement
which broke out in Weaverville last week. It
appears that the miners were informed that
some of the ladies of Weaverville, who were
engaged in getting up the "Tableau Exhibition y
made some remarks disparaging of them as
class. They therefore held meeting and voted
not to attend the exhibiton-and they didn't
attend. We understand they will hold another
meeting next week. and take steps to nominate
mud sills for all the various Offices to be filled
at the approaching election. 1t is said that this
feeling of bitterness is spreading throughout

it is taken into politics it will sweep everything
