AuBUrS STEAM MILLs.-Wagner IL Co.,
the propretors Of tie Auburn Steam Flour
ING Mill, have lately made extensive improve
ments to their MISUNDERSTANDING re-
placed the engine first used by one of great
er power, to enable them to meet the de.
mands Of their trade. They are now manu-
featuring an extra superfne article of flour for
bakers and family use. They are ready to
purchase wheat by the quantity, and invite
the attention of farmers as will be seen by
their advertisement in another column.
BALL AT THE JUNCTION HousE.-Mr G.
W. Galley, formerly proprietor of the Griz-
Fly Bear House, having returned from the
Atlantic States and :aken the Junction
House, intends given Dedication Ball on
Tuesday evening; September 2Stb. A fine
party is anticipated by all.
New TRIAL. = The Supreme Court has
granted Francisco Acosta new trial, who,
as orr readers will recolect, was tried and
convicted in this county of murder in the
second degree, and sentenced to the States
Prison for ten years, for the killing of Philip
Geary, on Stewart Flat, in the summer of
1857. The case will be re-tried at the Oc-
tober term of the District Court
To BE ExEcUTED.-The Supreme Court
has refused new trial to Rodriguez who is
now in our county Jail under sentence Of
death, for the murder of a Swede, near Blue
Canon, last winter. The time of his execu-
tian we believe is not yet designated.
OFFICIAL vorE.-We give to-day the Off
cial vote of the county. 1t will be seen
that the victory of the National Democracy
has been of the most decided character-our
candidates being elected by maj ajorities
ranging from $50 to 1000, saving the
Collector, whom the X. Ms. succeeding
in securing to themselves.
E1s" As Messrs. Broderick and McKbben
have been utterly repudiated by the Democ-
racy of California, the Only course left them
is to resign. Will they do it! if not, it is
the duty of the next Legislature to request
them to do so.
INCREASED VorE.-The aggregate vote of
Placer county at the general election in 1857
was ,2l9 votes; at the late election it was

IHE BLooMER.-The "Annual National
Dress Reform Convention" was held at Cort-
landville, N. Y, on the oath and 25th ult.
There were 1875 women at the meeting in the
reform dress. which means Bloomers, Prof,
Brockett, of the New York Central College
we know not whether this person is gem
tleman or lady-spoke very forcibly in fa-
vor Of shortening the skirt an inch every
year, till there is no skirt at all!
The Placer herald., 1858-09-11

GF- The last Press endeavored to march
Mark Kimbal, the new Collector straight
into the Broderick ranks 1t was the most
ill-concealed bait for recruit we recollect
to have seen. Does the Press speak author
itiyey when it ntmates that Mark will train
under their flag?
The Placer herald., 1858-09-11

The Next SpEAKER.-Already, in political
circles, have the names of several Democrats
elected to the next Assembly, been brought
forward as candidates for the Speakership
Mr. Street, Of Shasta, and Phil. Moore, of
Nevada, are prominently named. Mr. STRAIT
ton, of Placer is also named for the position
and from the peculiarly indicative warfare
that has been made against him, since his
introduction in the Legislature of last win
ter, of the resolutions sustaining the Kansas
policy of the President, and the triumphant
vindication he has received from his constit-
uents, he may be considered as tie strongest
candidate yet named. Mr.. Stratton has the
decision Of character, and a familiarity with
parliamentary usage, to make an excellent
Speaker.
The Placer herald., 1858-09-11

The virtuous Placer Press seems to have
done driving business in printing bogus
tickets. In addition to the tickets we spoke
of last week as having been printed there,
we are informed by resident of Poverty
Bar precinct that, on election day, Mr.. J. c.
Ball, the bogus candidate for Senator, was
at that precinct and distributed National
Democratic tickets with his own name print
ed upon instead of the regular candidate
James Andersen, Esq The fraud was not
discovered by Democrats until many of the
tickets were voted. Mr.. Ball did not re-
main long on the bar after the discovery.
The gentleman deserves a leather medal
for his fairness. The people Of Placer coun-
ty will bear this trick in remembrance.

River Mining-Rich Claim

River mining is just now being prosecuted
vigorously, and miners are beginning to real
ize the kind Of luck that is in store for them
The first news we have received is from Mr.
A. D. Mcdonald, Of Rattlesnake, whose
claim is about mile above that place. He
has tlumed this season 600 feet of the North
Fork of the American, st considerable
outlay of money and labor. lie commenced
work upon pay dirt about two weeks since,
since which time all the machinery las op
Grated well, and the work progressed rapidly.
The first day he took out 81 ozs, and every
day since the claim has paid at the same rate.
In ten days more Mr.. Mcdonald expects to
be repaid for the whole Of the previous out
lay of the summer, aud a good long season
ahead for profit.
Many will reccollect Mr. McD's interesting
letters respecting the Fraser river country,
that were published several months since in
the San Francisco papers He considers
Frazer river in no wise to be compared to
the North Fork as mining stream, and as
offering no such inducements to the indus
trious miner. Mr. Me successfully worlod
last season the claim that now promises so
handsomely this year.
