e. We understand that the Postmas-

each other soundly with their fists, last
S'nday- The difficulty arose about let

come for him, but which the Postmaster
could not find when the owner called for il
The deputy insisted ths.t one had come
The Postmaster then said if it had that no
the deputy had taken it, as no one else
could. The charg, was hurlc back by
the deputy, and after some more word,
between them, pitched into each other
with an appetite. Will the Department
keep such men in office?

AT a meeting of the citizens of San Andreas,
convened at Garry's Saloon, on Saturday

measures to insure our safety against fire, it

act as chairman, and William Irvine act as
secretary.
On motion the following preamble and res
olutions were read and adopted:
WHEREAS, In view of the recent public ca
lamity and loss of property by fire, we, the

pany.

ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATHs.-Those who are
afflicted with rheumatism or liver-complaint
are referred to the advertisement of Mr.. Chas.
A. Clarke proprietor of the electro chemical
baths, at Mokelumne Hill. Six or eight months
ago Mr.. c. was, himself, an almost hopeless
invalid, from severe rheumatism and asthma
By the advice of friends, he repaired to San
Francisco and underwent thorough course
of treatment in these baths. The effect was
most astonishing: his cure was compiete-so
much so, that not symptom of his old all
ments remain. His constitution seems re-
newed and re-invigorated. With full faith in
the remedy that benefited him so much, he
has learned the secret of their preparation
and established baths at Mokelumne Hill,
where patients can be as successfully treated,
and with less expense than in San Francisco
Allinvalids who may be suffering with chronic
disorders, or from the effects of mercury,
should try this harmless and efficient remedy.

NOTICE TO THE LOSERS BY THE SAN ASpREAs
FIRE.-A petition has been shown ms. signed
oy some twenty-five sufferers in the late fire,
praying the Board of Equalization to reduce
tne assessments of their property, which were
returned by the Assessor just before the fire.
The petition is nothing but a just and reason
able paper; but the Board believing that all
the losers names are not signed to the petition
request the. publication of this, to notify such
as have not yet signed, in order that they may
have an opportunity to do so, before the Board
adjourns. The petition goes before the Board
on Monday; SO that to-day, and tomorrow
morning, will be the only chance for losers to
sign. The petition is in the hands of Mr.. w.
II. Denig.

WATER DIFFICULTY.-During the week some
feeling has been manifested about the differ
ence existing between the San Antonio Ditch
Company and the river miners ON the Calave-
ras and San Antonio streams. We are not
posted as to the merits of the grievances COM
planned of by either party, but suppose the
difficulty is not of so serious q nature but that
1T can be amicably settled by mutual arbitra-
tion. In view of an arrangement of that na-
ture-it being desired by the wisest heads rep
resenting each interest-we refrain, this week,
from making further comment, and also delay
the subject. 1t is our sincere wish that no
indiscreet person will take advantage. either
by word or deed, of the present feeling, from
interested motives, so as to get up an undue
excitement. Let the differences be settled by
the arbitrament of disinterested parties, and
"Blessed be the peacemakers." The writer of
the communication (who is an American miner
on the Calaveras,) notices the articles in the
Murphy's Ners, and pronounces them GEN.
rtirely the reverse of truth and justice" and
concludes -" Not wishing to impugn any gen.
tlemans motives, or malign his character,
only claim as great portion of respectability
for the mining community as other portions
are possessed of, even including the gentlemen
connected with the Murphys press. Hoping
'nat wise, Just and conciliatory councils may
govern the miners, as well as those represent
ing connictlng interests, together with the eff
forts OF disinterested public acting as umpire
in the matter, will bring the difficulty to a
speedy and permanent settlement Is tho earnest

The O'CoNNELL FUND IN THE OLD COUNTRY.

have been expected. The gross amount al
ready received scarcely reaches 9l,500 The

large addition to the fund may be counted
upon from the southern counties-Cork, Linn

RoBBER CAuGHr.-The man Ansony Roach,
who stole the money from Messrs. Robey &

near Sebastopol GA miles southeast of Sac
ramento,) on the 18th of July, by DR.. Charles
Bowman and Mr.. Myers, and the whole amount
of money stolen, 81, l,2l5, was recovered. The
thief made good his escape, before a warrant
was procured. The parties who arrested the
robber, although they allowed him to escape,
exacted the full reward offered for the arrest
of the thief and recovery Of the money.

RANCHO CoNFIRMED.-We learn from the San
Joaquin Republican, that in the matter of the
application for examination of the patent for
Thompson's Rancho, grant of eight leagues,
in the vicinity of Heath & Emory's Ferry, on
the Stanislaus river, the Court adjudged that
the patent for the grant was genuine. This
examination by the District Court of the To-
cality in which Mexican grant is situated
is required by an Act of the last Legislature.

POpuIa-~ Sovereignty Demo
cratic Convention.

WHEREAS. The late Convention held at
Murphy's, on the Goth inst, in Pursuance OF
the call of the Democratic County CeLi,ral
Committee, saw fit by its resolutions, to en-
dorse the arbitrary action of the Administra-
ton, in its attempt by bribe or intimidation, to
force upon an unwilling people, the iniquity
known as the Lecompton Constitution, and by
its action to prescribe those Democrats who
favor the doctrine of g Popular Sovereignty
as advocated by the Hon. Stephen A. Doug
las and his Democratic associates in Congress;
and
Whereas, Many of the Delegates elected to
said convention, believing that "all political
power is inherent in the People !" and that
all free governments derive their just powers
from the consent Of the governed and that
the sacrifice of the principle of Popular Sow
ereignty is an abandonment of the Cincinnati
Platform, upon which James Buchanan was
so triumphantly elected Chief Magistrate in
1856, felt themselves constrained to withdraw
from said Convention, and to resolve them
selves into another, where these principles
might be avowed and advocated instead of
sttied and, whereas, said Convention was ac-
cordingly held at Murphy's on the goth inst,
at which, among other resolutions, it was
unanimously resolved that a Convention of
Democrats representing the principle OF Pop
uar Sovereignty should be held at Angels,
on the 10th day of August next, and the un-
dersigned duly appointed Committee to call
the Primary Meetings and to regulate the
basis of representation of the same:
Now, therefore, by virtue of the power vested
in US by said Convention, we, the undersigned,
do request that the Primary Meetings for the
election of delegates to said Convention be
held in each of the following precincts on
Saturday, the 7h Of 4ugust and that the fol-
lowing is the apportionment of Delegates to

RETURNED FROM FRAZER RWER.-Messrs.
Aiken, Mckee, Torrens, Emerson, and several
other citizens of San Andreas and vicinity,
have returned by the Oregon, from Frazer
river. We learn from these gentlemen that
the prospects of miners in that delectable
country, are gloomy enough to satisfy their
worst enenies. The streets of Victoria and
Whatcom are crowded with multitudes of
anxious suppicants for work at any price they
can obtain. The river is still too high for
successful mining and there is no hope enter
tanned that it will be lower until the short
frosty days of late autumn obstructs the melt
ing of the mountain snews Even this hope
is not without serious drawback: for it is
well known that the annual rains of that lati-
tude commence at least six weeks earlier than
in California, so that the chances of successful
mining on the river bars, before early spring,
are vague indeed.
The trail SO much talked OF, from Whatcom
to the mouth of Thompsons river, has been
pronounced an impracticability, and all hopes
of pushing it through abandoned The new
discoveries of gold in dry diggings, that are
being heralded through the columns of the
San Francisco press, it is said are not re-
garded by the denizens of Victoria and What
com. We are very much pained to hear that
many of our old friends and acquaintance
wlfo were carried away in the flush of the fe-
yer, three months ago, are now destitute of the
means to return, and in state of indigence
and suffering. Some of them have been known
TO push their way, with characteristic intre-
pidity, far Dove Fort Hope, into the wilder
ness, where the chances are that starvation,
o. the haaas of the savage will soon seal their
snortai fate In this latter list, we learn, is an
old and highly respected citizen of this town
ship, his wife and child, who were among the
first TO leave this part of the State for the
new diggings.
The gentlemen above named all concur in
she opinion that California is not yet to be
thrown off for any prospect the North affords.

CHEAP.-The finest peaches are selling in
this market at 25 cents per pound. Mr. Gar
celon, of the celebrated Peach Orchard in
Salt Spring Valley, retailed wagon load on
last Thursday, at that price. We understand
that his crop is very large, and that he has
more peaches than he can possibly sell at
even that price. He is making arrangements
to dry and preserve what he fails to sell.
