Arrival OF the Central Overland Mail.
PLACERvILLE, Nov. 81 P. NJ.

PLAoERvILLE, Nov. 81 p. NJ.
The Overland Mail coach, with U. S Mails
and one passenger from Salt Lake, B. F. Wal
lace, of Missouri, arrived here at ! ( o'clock
this morning
The ST. Joseph mail reached Salt Lake. Oc-
tober 10Th, and the California mail left there
on the 18th. Some snow had fallen on the
mountains east of Salt Lake, and the mer-
chants had sent out several hundred head of
oxen to assist the large trains along the
route
From certain movements of the Utah In
dians, after the Dragons killed their chief,
fears of an outbreak were entertained but
nothing of the kind had occurred when the
mails left.
As vet, the Mormons refrail from holding
public worship, and Brigham Young still
maintains dogged silence and strict incog-
nito
Cattle had advanced in value, and team
sters were getting good prices for their teams
Business of every kind was unusually brisk,
and the gamblers were having temporary
millennium.
Senator Broderick and Major Chorpenning
arrived at Salt Lake on the 18th of October
and the other members of that party got in
shortly afterwards Mr. B. was not seriously
indisposed, but looked haggard and wayworn
The other mail parties were met at different
points on the way; all well, and getting along
finely.
Mr.. Wallace says that the route is in fine
condition, but he complains bitterly of the
laziness and careessness of the men in charge
of some of the stations, especially of those at
Goose Creek
The Indians were very numerous along the
route, and at the Hayfeld, near Mosquito
Point, they were unfriendly, and had stolen
all the stage stock,
Hosmers train, from Stockton, had arrived
at Gravelly Ford They were all well. DR..
Forney has gone back to Salt Lake
DIR. Chorpenning was met in Carson Val
ley, and as he has gone out on regular
tour we shall probably hear less murmuring
in future about carelessness at the stations
Last Saturday was election day IN Carson
county, Nevada Territory The result is not
yet known, but the Law and Order party
have probably elected their whole ticket.
Captain Lowell, of the Sixth Infantry, to-
gether with his wife and three small chill
dren, have arrived in this place. The troops
will remain at Vosbergh's, six miles from
Placerville, for severals days, to recuperate.

SEQUEL TO THE RoBBERY OF TIE MoNTl
BANK-Yesterday morning, at about
o'clock, a Mexican, usually known as "His
! paniole," was seated at table in the Univer
sal Restaurant, on First street, taking coffee
with another Mexican named Alexander and
an American named Harris. Ilispaniole it
seems, was part owner of the monte-bank
which had been so effectually tapred by the
robbers in mask, the evening before. During
the coffee-drinking. Hispaniole accused Alex
ander and Harris of committing the robbery.
Harris got up and went out with what view
is not known, perhaps to get weapons, as he
and Alexander were unarmed. Shortly after
Harris left Hispaniole arose, drew a revol-
yer, and, reaccusing Alexander of the rob
berry, shot him directly through the right
breast, but rather high up. Alexander fell,
and Hispanole proceeded rapidly to the Sta
ton House and delivered himself up, where
he now is, as a prisoner. lie has caused both
the wounded man and Harris to be put un-
der arrest ona charge of robbery. Harris is
in the Station House, but Alexander is on a
cot at the Universal Restaurant, being too
unwell to be removed to the Station House
1t is supposed that he will recover. We went
to see him, yesterday, but he was not per.
mitted to speak. His eye was very bright,
but he seem to breath with some difficulty.
The ground that Hispanio!e claims to have
to suspect Harris and Alexander is that they
are very friendly together, and that one was
seen betting at a game, after the robbery,
with a gold piece which IIispaniole had
marked previously, and which was among
the lot of coin abstracted.
p. S. Alto o'clock last night, blood was
coming up into the mouth of Alexander, and
it was feared by his friends that he would
die from internal hemmorhage.

A MONSTER Tuna giant tub, says the
Bulletin, blocks up the half of Stockton
street, near Broadway, in front of the shoT
of the builder, a Frenchman named Florent
eek. This tub is intended to form portion
of the gasometer at the gas works at Mare
Island 1t is built of perfectly clear pine
lumber, and is 25 feet in diameter by IL feet
in depth, surrounded by iron hoops; having
capacity of $4,000 gallons. There are three
or four workmen engaged in building it and
the time required is fifteen days; the tub is

him their help, abandoning him at the first
opportunity, and endeavoring, while they
leave him naked to The tempest, to shelter
their own dishorored heads from the cor

justice is about to do its work upon him, and,
unless he can by some deed of uncommon
grandeur, wisdom and patriotism, atone for
his worse than blunders in the past, he will
leave his Presidential seat with crown of
fire upon his temples and a ranking thorn in

CORRUPTION OF YoUTH IN SrooKToN.-The
Argus has the following startling observa-
tlons, respecting the morals of portion of the
youth of that city:
The late daring breaking into a house in
broad day light for the purpose of robbing.
by boy of this city, has excited no little at.
tention towards the boys of Stockton. There
are many running our streets, some without
homes, and others beyond the control of pa.
rents, who are fast rushing towards a dis
graceful end if not checked in their progress
in petty sins. can ounce of preventative is
better than pound of cure.' With truth
may this be said regarding a large number of
the boys of Stockton. We have no doubt
that there are men, vile wretchesin our midst.
who are melting boys on to petty thefts On
the. corner of Main and Centre streets, in the
very heart of our city, there is rum-hole,
in little room of which may be found boys
from the age ofeight to eleven years, playing
poker. They are adopts in cards, and this
means is one probably used to incite them to
find the money that may furnish them with
funds to satisfy their desire to gamble. We
understand, also, that there is house kept
by negroes on FL Dorado street, not far from
Main, where white boys frequent, for no good
ends it may be assumed. This condition of

ALABAsrER IN CALWoRxIA.-A friend in
Monterey county, says the 5. f. Herald
writes us that alabaster, of very superior
quality and rivaling the finest of Italian, is
found, in large quantities, in the hills be-
tween the Missions of Soledad and San Anto.
nio, in the vicinity of the horse-trail between
tween the two places. 1t is also found in the
mountains of the Coast Range near the Chu-
Ian peak, eastward from the Soledad Mission.
The alabaster is clean, close-grained very
firm and translucent, and can be cut with a
knife; its color is a beautiful light cream
As this variety makes the best plaster for
ceilings and fine work, as well as in the orna.
mental arts, its discovery in California be-
comes an object of great interest to our build
ers and mechanics as many thousand dollars
worth of it is imported every year from the
Atlantic States.

from the cattle furnished 10y the United

Agents? The Indians want the hides, a,
they sometimes dress in skins; the agents, al

HoPINa AGAINST HoPE.-The Philadelphia
Press relates the following, in one of its ac-
counts of the loss of the steamer Austria;
A curious circumstance connected with the
unhappy losses which all so greatly feel and
deplore, is the "hoping against hope" which
some of the surviving relatives entertain.-
The wife of Mr. Theodore Gerok of Balti-
more, is now visiting her relatives in Phila-
delphia, and while they have no doubt of his
loss she alone has deep conviction that he
is not dead either he was not on board the
Austria (though he wrote to her that he had
actually paid for his passage) or, if he was,
that he must have been among the few who
were rescued. 1t may be within the know
ledge of many of our readers that clergy
man of this city was among those who left
for Europe, on the Inflated President, and
was never again heard of.
His wife, who remained in PHILADELPHIA.
and was deeply attached to him, never did,
because she never would, believe that he was
lost to her. Eighteen years have passed
away, and yet, that trusting lady-we cannot
speak of her as wite and she repudiates the
name of widow-continues to expect his re-
turn. Every day, a cover is placed for h l

consequence will be that those districts will

Two BURGLARS DISCOVERED BY STRATAGEM.
"A few nights ago the office attached to the
livery stable of Messrs. Kingsley d Son, No.
l05 Franklin street, was burglariously enter
ed by means of false keys, and three coats,
valued at $50, and so in counterfeit bills
stolen therefrom. The employees were close
ly questioned, but none of them knew any
thing about the affair. Suspicion finally fell
upon two fellows who had been lurking
about the stable and information thereof, to
gether with description Of their persons,
was given to the police. Officers Latta and
Slater, of the Lower Police Court, accompani
ed by officer Rollins, of the Fifth precinct,
visited low place corner of w est Broadway
and Worth street, and apprehended on sus
picion of burglary, two fellows, named David
Ryer and Stephen Anderson, whom they con
veyed to the station house, and locked up in
different cells AS there was some doubt as
to the identity of the prisoners, a very clever
stratagem was resorted to in order to gain the
desired evidence. Officer Rollins, disguised
in suit of old clothes, and with a seedy and
dilapidated white hat pulled over his eyes,
giving him the appearance of a dock loafer,
feigned drunkenness and was with much
racket tumbled down stairs and showed into
cell between the ones occupied by Ryer
and Anderson. Rollins carried out his part
to perfection, and hooted and yelled and
commenced singing verse from that song
which all drunken men, as a general thing
attempt to sing;
