THE CALAMITY IN SANTA CRuz.-The San Francisco
Buiietn in giving an account of the burning OF Mrs.
0den and four children and Miss Burns, says: Mr..
Oden had left two days before for the -Four Creek
country, in search Of cattle. It was supposed there
had been some foul play, as nobody could imagine
that six persons could be consumed in small one
story frame building unless they had been absolutely
confined in it, or murdered previously. Suspicion was
directed to spaniard who had been lately engaged
on the premises but who had been ordered off the
ranch by Mr. Oden before he left for the -Four Creek
district. Armed parties were formed among the peo-
pie of San Juan to scour the county in search of him.

Highly rmportan, peo,s,on.

The Supreme Court on the 18th delivered a decision
in the great mining case Of Boggs vs. the Merced Min
ing Company Of which the following is an abstract,
from a Sacramento paper
The circumstances of the original grant to John C.
Fremont Of the Mariposas, by Juan b. Alvarado, and
its confirmation by the Supreme Court of the United
States, with the issue Of patent are familiar to our
readers. The plaintiff became lessee of Fremont,
April 22 1851 of part OF the tract for seven years.
at monthly rent Of $1,000. In May, 1851, defendant
entered upon and took possession of the premises and
retained II to the present time extracting the gold
and has expended in machinery upwards of $500 900.
This action brought by plaintiff to recover possess
sion Of the property and damages for its detention
since the date of the lease. The plaintiff had judg.
ment in the Court below, and the defendant appealed
The Court here consider two questions only first,
whether the title to the mineral passed to Col Ere
mont and, second, whether, conceding that it did
not, the defendant has the right to extract the gold
while the title in fee simple of the land in the lessor
Of the plaintiff The Court enters into an elaborate
discussion of the merits of the case as bearing upon
these two points On the first branch of the subject
the Court say thath title to the gold in the premises
reserved by Mexico, and passed by treaty to the
United States, and has not passed from them TO the
lessor of the plaintiff. On the second branch, the
Court decide, that the owner of a mining claim has
until his title dvested by the exercise of the higher
right of the superior proprietor The judgment is
yersed and cause remanded, and the Court below di-
rected to enter judgment for the defendants Judge

DRY TMEs.-A gentleman who was last
week on visit to the San Joaquin river, in
forms us that for many miles up, from Hilps
ferry at the mouth of the Merced river-witf
the exception of a narrow strip on either side
the grass is entirely parched up In districts
where last year considerable hay was cut
no grass can now be found. Nearly all the
small sloughs which are supplied with water
from the river, are dry, and the cattle owners
are about driving their cattle to the vicinity o
the river, to remain during the summer. Our
informant also states that the crops are nearly
all ruined for want of rain-havng sprouted

SuIcIDE.--The body Of a man was found
Friday last, in a drift about quarter of a mile
above Murray's bridge, on the Merced river.
When found, he was lying on his back, his
head supported by small, low bench or stool,
and his hand graspcd the pistol with which il
is supposed he shot himself The ball had en-
tered the skull about an inch above the right
eye. He was apparently in destitute condi-
ton, which probably caused him to commit the
rash act He wore a brown coarse WOO
overcoat which is at the store of Adam Yates,
Merced Falls, for recognition. No papers oi
any description, or money, were found about
the body, by which it could be identified. Just.
ice Webster Of Smelling, summoned jury and
held an inquest on the body, and verdict
was rendered in accordance with the facts, as
stated above.

THE SENATE AND KANSAS.

The State Senate have adopted the resou-
tions-bya vote Of twenty to fifteen-which
last week passed the Assembly, in favor of the
immediate admission Of Kansas under the Le-
compton Constitution, and have thus thrown
the weight of the California Legislature in sup
port Of the Administration. To judge by the
opposition shown by the journals throughout
the State, the Legislature have not expressed
Whether this is the case or not, the fiat of the
assembled wisdom of California has gone FORTH
another block has been placed under the le-
yer which is destined to raise Territory to
the dignity Of sovereign State in this con-
federacy, That it may not prove weight that
may break the lever and shatter the fabric of
which it is made part, is the wish Of every
true American. The admission of Kansas at
the present session of Congress is an event that
may be looked upon as certain however un-
paatable it may be to us to acknowledge the
fact From the present aspect of the political
horizon, where we see dark and lowering
clouds menacing the bright MONDAY of our
national prosperity with three Southern States
pledged to secede on the non-admission of
Kansas under the Lecompton Constitution !;
and with the entire South strongly supporting
the Administration, the conclusion must be,
by every man who is not ultra and prejudiced,
that the admission of Kansas now would not
be productive of any actual trouble to the
Union, compared to what would ensue were
it not admitted.

DEMOCRATIC MEETING IN MARYsvILLE.-A
meeting of the Democracy of Marysville, for
the purpose of discussing the subject of ad-
mitting Kansas into the Union under the Le-
compton Constitution, was held on the evening
of the 18th inst. Among the speakers present
were J. W. McCorkle, Judge Bryant, Mr..
Wheeler and 2. Montgomery. The first three
opposed the admission of Kansas under the
Lecompton Constitution, and the latter favored
it The resolutions offered were also of the
anti-Lecompton character, but the result Of
the vote taken is doubtful.

TULARE CAsAL.-0n the 9th inst, says the San
Francisco Herald, the Senate refused to reconsider
the vote repeating the bill granting certain rights to
the Tulare Canal Company passed on the sth. Mr..
Merritt introduced the repeating act some three weeks
snce but which was laid on the table for further in
formation. Judge Stakes, under the belief that it
would not be called up again in the Senate to make
sure Of the matter introduced similar bill in the As
semby last week. It is indeed creditabe to both that
they have thus acted in time to prevent wholesale
fraud on the State from being further carried out.

To Our Delinquent Subscribers.

On Thursday next, April 1st, the first volume
that those of our subscribers who have read
our paper from the commencement up to the
present number-some forty-seven weeks
without paying for it, will condescend to for
ward the amounts they are indebted We have
not dunned our delinquent subscribers through
our columns continually, as appears to be the
custom, and we do it at this time only that
they may have a fair notice of their indebted
ness We do not like to proceed to extreme
measures, but should our notification remain
unheeded, as private ones have been, hereto
fore, the bills will be given to attorneys for COL
lection; for we would rather give the amounts
as fees for their collection, than quietly let
them be used by those so mean as to cheat the
printer.
The amount due from each delinquent is so
small, and the extent of country to be trav-
eled over to collect them is so great, that we
cannot, without too great an expense visit all
the delinquents, and can only take this method
of soliciting the payment Of the amounts due
Our books show large Indebtedness, indeed
when it is considered that it is for subscrip
tons alone, and our tolerance and good ma
ture in thus ndulging subscribers to the end
of the volume should meet with a more gen.
erous appreciation than some Of them have
shown, who have continued to read the paper
week after week, seeming to care not if the
printer became bankrupt through their neg
ect, and are thereby actually ipjuring the pa
per which their fellow-citzens are endeavor
ng to support.
Those of our delinquent subscribers who
wish to settle for their subscriptions, can do so
by mail or express, at our risk.
