Matters At VALLEJo.-A correspondent of
the Contra Costa Gazette, writing on the 9th
Of October, from the old State capital, Val
lejo, says:
Vallejo, at the present time, contains about
400 buildings and its population is about
I,2OO. Ii presents lively and healthy APP
pearance-
The Government is about commencing to
build steamship, at the Navy Yard, of 450
or 500 tuns burthen, which will give labor
to some 100 to l50 more men than are now
at work on the Isand-the number now at
work being between 800 and 400. 1t is ex-
pected, however, that many of those now on
the Island will be discharged, on account of
the appropriation under which they are now
working being about used up.
Vallejo, to day, was unfortunately dis
graced by the arrival in town of celebrated
woman whipper (Coopey) from San Francis
co. Soon after his arrival, he entered a
saloon kept by lady, and commenced mis-
using and insulting her, and would probably
have added injury to insult, if it had not
been for the propelling movement, caused
bya bystanders boot, which sent him sprawl

CULTURE OF THE GRAPE IN BUTTE COUNTY.
Mr.. Charles Schermer of Morris Ravine,
three miles from Oroville, has a small vine
yard, four years from the seed, grown on
volcanic soil on the slope of the Table Noun
tain, that has produced fine revenue this
season. Surplus grapes from this vineyard
have been converted into a very superior
article of white wine. An Interesting
fact connected with this vineyard, is, that it
has been grown from the seed taken from the
Los Angeles black grape, and the product is
beautiful white grape-sweet and delicate
The wine from it is free from the acid and
roughness so peculiar in California wine
when new. We regard this an interesting
and triumphant discovery to vine-growers.-
Butte Record, Saturday.
The above is certainly a very noticeable
fact, and Important to grape-growers.

WANDERED ORA young man who has
formerly resided in Sonora, 10y name of Ba.

having become deranged by long continued
sickness. His friends becoming troubled
owing to his long absence, went in search,
but returned finding no trace of him. Still
pursuing their search, says the Herald, they
caught sight of him in the bushes, but he
avoided them and escaped. Since he has
been out on the hills he has subsisted on
green corn and watermelons, taken from the
gardens of the ranches in the vicinity where

A CASE OF POISONING IN AMADoR.-The
following particulars Of poisoning case in
Amador county, are given in the Jackson
Sentinel:
Last Sunday a man by the name of John
Simons poisoned another man by the name of
Bully McFadden, near Forest Home, in this
county, under the following circumstances
The two men were out hunting about noon
they came to where the road forked, and ST
mons proposed that they here separate which
was agreed to by McFadden. Before they
did 50, however, S:mons took some pieces of
bread and butter from his pocket, and said
he had brought them in case they might feel
like eating before returning home, and asked
McFadden if he would not take piece; the
latter took the piece and they separated
McFadden had gone but few steps when he
commenced eating the bread; when he had
taken two bites of it he began to feel badly
about the throat, breast and stomach. The
idea Immediately struck him that he was
poisoned He kept the bread in his hand
and hurried to the nearest house, which was
the Forest Home he then became very sick,
with symptums of spasms. He explained
what had taken place, when the persons
present Immediately set themselves to work
to save his life. Oil and lard were given to
him in large quantities, which he drank down
with avidity until he vomited freely, which
relieved him. A piece of the bread was Civ
en- to dog at the house, which killed him in
five minutes after eating. Another small
piece was given to a chicken, which killed it
almost Immediately In the meantime, ST.
mons had succeeded in making his escape
Pursuit was Immediately made, and on Tues
day he was arrested by A. 5. Richardson,
constable at Drytown, in Diamond Springs,
county aad is now confined in Jail
ut this place We have heard it stated, as
reason for the poisoning, that McFadden
kept very good looking squaw whom ST
mons loved and wished to procure, and could
not do it under any other circumstance
However, we do not vouch for the truth of
this report. Simons and McFadden were
partners.
