N0TE.-Most of the above balances due Over
seers were audited by the previous Boards of Su-
pervsors, but no provision made for their payment,
with the exception in a few cases Of ordering the
Overseers of Road Districts to pay the same out of
the first moneys received after retaining sufficient
to keep the roads in proper repair. Now, the
present Board taking in view the law of the State
in regard to Roads and Highways, giving all tax
payers the privilege of working out their tax at
their option; and the fact that the roads Of most
districts need all the tax collected yearly to keep
them in proper repair, the Board. feel 1t their du
ty to make other provision for the payment of
these balances due 0verseers-and especially have
they been brought to this conclusion from the fact
that suits threatened to be brought against the
county to recover the same. The Board therefore
have levied property tax Of five cents on each
$l00 for road purposes, and ordered that the same
be paid into the Treasury as a special fund, desig-
mated the "road fund.- and will order the Auditor
to draw warrants said fund to all persons hav-
ing audited demands against the county for money
expended on roads prior to January l, 1858.

CALICO PARTY FOR THE BENEFIT OF A
BLIND Boy.-On the 4th Of March next, at
Pine Grove House, Calico Party will be
given for the benefit Of James Walker, an
unfortunate youth who has lost his sight. -
Some time si1ce, he was under treatment at
San Francisco and was recovering; but for
the want of means he was compelled to re-
turn, and is rapidly growing worse Unless
he is enabled by the assistance of Others, at
an early date, to again place himself under
treatment. his cye-sight will be gone totally
and for life With treatment, the blessed
boon will be restored to him Here is an
opportunity for true, genuine charity; that
charity which causes Heaven to smile upon
the bestower, and lifts mountain of weight
from the afflicted one We very much mis-
take the character of California generosity,
or it will be exempifed by an almost univer.
sal attendance from Pine Grove and vicinity
at this party. Those who ercr attend dances
will surely attend this; and it viii not be too
much to expect that ladies and gentlemen
from even the most distant towns in the
county will be present. Let the poor blind
boy be restored to his sightl The tickets
arc only five dollars, and you will feel an in
ward consciousness of having performed an
act of true charity that will repay you a
thousand fold. Who win hesitate? Good
music, supper &c, will be provided-the lat
ter by Mr.. Thomas Cline the new proprietor
of the Pine Grove House.

inducement that is now held out to them in
Amador county. The extension of the
Amodor Canal was completed to the Mo
kelumne river some time since, and is now
supplying an immense quantity Of water,
which will not be diminished even in the dry
est season, there being at all times an abun-
dance in the stream The water is conveyed
on the highest ridges, and is distributed from
the main canal and by means of lateral ditch
es through all the gulch. hillside and ra-
vine diggings in the region between the Vol
cano valley and the Mokelumne. This en-
braces tract Of country as rich in aurifer-
ous wealth as any in California; and because
Of the want of water, until recently, it has
been worked but comparatively little. The
claims are of every character, so that every
man, with or without capital, can be accom-
modated The opportunity offered for by
draulc power is unsurpassed; and for those
who may desire to engage in crushing the
rich gold bearing quartz with which the re-
gion abounds, any number of mill sites may
be found, and the mills driven at compara-
lively small cost. In short, for any descrlp
ton of mining, there has never been more
inviting opportunity presented. There is
room enough for vast number OF miners
plenty of good claims to be found by merely
looking for them-and the population OF that
part of our county ought to be doubled in
three or four months.
Under the judicious and energetic supcrin-
tendence of Mr.. Myers, the company are
steadily and rapidly increasing their works, SO
as to furnish water without interruption to
every point within their reach. For this pur-
pose they are pushing forward system OF
