LOCAL News OF SIsKIYoU.-The Yreka
Chronicle, of the 9th inst, remarks as fol-
lows:
Nothing of peculiar moment has occurred,
during the week. to disturb the equilibrium
of our citizens, either in point of calamity, or
of unusual pleasure. Business is about as it
was the previous week. Very little change
has been experienced in mining operations,
except in river channels, where labor has al.
most entirely ceased for the season,
An additional interest is discernible in the
quartz operations of Scott Valley. Several
new claims have been located, while two oil
thu ee ofthose worked are now giving indica-
tion of a rich yield among which are those
belonging to Esq. Shores of Mugginsville
who now has an excellent quartz mill, which
has recently been completed and prepared
for crushing.
Notwithstanding the vast fields of placer
diggings that still lie open to labor. the at
tention of many practical miners is turning to
the unexplored gravel hills that abound in
the vicinity of Yreka and which from their
nature and bearing with surface diggings
one would reasonably suppose to be rich
with gold We are informed that several
companies have already been organized with
view to the driving in of tunnels in the
hill above GreenhorD. Success to them.
An other interment was made in our city
burial ground, on Tuesday. Deceased wa:
resident of Humbug, and as notice will
show, was formerly resident of Doddsville
Wisconsin. Surely, "in life we are also il
the midst of death, and mourners 90 about
our streets" But we have no reason to com
plain, for we undoubtedly have as healthy a
climate as can anywhere else be found.
Upon the reception of the late Atlantic
news, there was rejoicing over the success o
Douglas in Illinois, which was more deeply
felt, than boisterously demonstrated. The
heart of the great majority is evidently with
him. A partially smothered discomfort il
manifest among portions of the Lecomptor
wing and ultra Republicans are, of course
disappointed in the defeat of Lincoln; botl
of these, however, are evidently in the mi
noritv.

TEnAMA COUNTY NEws.-We extract the
following items from the Tehama Gazette, Of
Saturday:
A NoveI method ofkilli,g Cro,Cs "A friend
of ours whose fields were so infested with
these pests that he found it difficult to pro-
cure more than halfa crop, conceived the
bright idea of giving the i'll omened birds a
dose that would last them some time. He
accordingly bought an ounce of strychnine,
and dissolving it in water, soaked quantity
of wheat in it and scattered it where the
crows would be likely to get it, AS might
be expected, they greedily devoured the
seed, and in less than two hours there were
enough dead crows to literally cover the
ground in the vicinity of the roost. Our
friend says that all that were not killed were
so scared that they staid no longer in that
place, and he was never again troubled by
them.
More Big Hunting.-Wils Knott, one of
the Nome Lackee Reservation hunters kill
ed, recently, during seven days, three of
which he was obliged to lay up, thirty
deer and one grizzly. He had an Indian in
company but allowing for what he might
slay, wills. is, nevertheless considered about

add, that of the matter of issuing the cita-
ton, they, as portion of the Supreme Court,
or as Associate Justices of this Court, have
nothing to do But rs the question was ar.
gued before them in open Court, and their
opinions requested, they thought proper to
give t4eir views upon the matter
RoBBERY-CoRRAtED At LAsr.-The case
OF Seymour Hatch and Charles Walker,
charged with robbing Thomas Heron. a dis
charged soldier, Of about Sl45 on the night
OF the 10th Nov last, was examined at one
o'clock P. NJ. yesterday, before Justice Barr.
Heron (who subsequently reenlisted and now
belongs to Company b, Sixth Infantry quar-.
tered ut Bcnicia testified that he came down
on the boat, landing here about midnight;
stopped at the What Cheer House and paid
for bed; that he was somewhat inebriated.

tys,) went out and entered the house; was
knocked down by one of the musicians whom
he might have touched; got up and went out
and on the sidewalk met two men who ac.
costed him. and to whom he related the cir
cumstances OF the knock down, adding that
he suppose they wanted to rob him; that one
OF the persons asked him if they got his mon
ey, and upon his assuring them that they had
not, said that the What Cheer House where
he had stopped was no place to stop, and
that they would take him to a good respec.
table house The party then took him bv
the arm and led him some distance till he be-
came tired and refuse to go further; one of
them, who had him by the arm, then threw
his arm across Herons throat and forced him
backwards across his iknee, and fat the same
time calling, Charley, I've got him :" the
call was repeated, when another party came
up and cutting his pocket. robbed him of the
amount specified, when the first threw him
torcibly upon the pavement or sidewalk and
both ran. Heron, recovering himself, imme.
dately followed them, as he thought, crying
that he had been robbed. Wm Chas Brock
away testified tl.at he saw the defendants,
Frank Barenkamp and Frank Drake, about
that time, defendants having drunken man
| (apparently) between them could not identi-
fy Heron as the party They proceeded
thence to COllicotts saloon, on Second street,
and after stopping there awhile, Drake and
Barenkamp engaged in Il game at cards, and
presently discovered that Hatch, Walker and
Heron had left soon afterwards Heron
came running up street aud informed him
that he had been robbed. Colicotts bar
keeper, W. II. Elliott, testified that the de
PENDANTS and Heron left in company. The
Court ordered that the defendants be held to
answer and fixed the bail at $4,000 each.
Walker was taken on board the Brig last

DIABoIIcAL Aor.-A most disgraceful out
rage was committed on the night of the 9th
ult, by some fiend in human shape, who en-
tered the house of woman at the dead hour
of night, and cutting off her entire head of
hair. While in the act, the female in ques,
tion in making an effort to prevent this un-
manly and abominable crime, grasped the
knife with which it was done, and severely
cut her hand. If this is not the climax of all
the concentrated essence of meanness that
was ever got together in one being, then l
must admit that am not good Judge of hui
man nature. forbear to give the name of
the person who is accused, although acquit-
ted when tried for this henious and blighting
offense, for the want of sufficient legal testi-
mony.-San Diego cor. Alta.

MoHAMMED.-Slightly above the middle
size, his figure though spare, was handsome
and commanding, the chest broad and open,
the bones and framework large, the joints
well knit together. His neck was long and
finely moulded. The head, unusually large,
gave space for broad and noble brow. The
hair thick, jet black. and slightly curling, fell
down over his ears. The eyebrows were
9orehed and joined; the countenance thin,
but ruddy His large eyes, intensely black
and piercing. received additional lustre from
their long eyelashes. The nose was high and
slightly acquiline, but fine, and at the end
sattenuated. The teeth were far apart. A
long, black, bushy beard reaching to the
breast, added manliness and presence. His
expression was pensive and contemplative
The face beamed with intelligence, though
something of thes sensuous might also be
there discerned. His broad back leaned
slightly forward as he walked, and his step
was hasty, yet sharp and decided, like that of
oneisharply descending asdeclivity. There
was something unsettled in his blood-shot
eye, which refused to rest upon its object
when he turned towards you it was never
partially, but with the whole body.-Auir's
