toxicated that he had to be assisted to the

toxicated that he had to be assisted to the
prison.
Thus, one after another, we have given to
the public the gist of what is called ''serious
charges" by grave and Gignified statesman (9)
and by an intelligent, unprGudiced press.
We are not disposed to indorse improper
conduct in any one, or to lessen an offence
because it has been perpetrated by one who
is or has been our friend, but we ask the
candid reader who has followed these charges
through from beginning to end, if there is
in any one, except the sixth, any issue of a
nature to interest the public, or substantially
to effect the management of the prison? 1t
was not necessary to the interest of the get
tersup their aiders and abettors, that they
should contain accusations of substantial
nature.
You may slander as readily with wink
shrug of the shoulder or a sneer, as by tel
ling the most direct falsehood- perhaps the
impression thus left is more certain to remain,
and is much harder to disodge by proof,
because it is indefinite and leaves the mind
to conjecture anything that may occur to an
active imagination. In this manner you
may uuUelil illlHo tho icPuto1ioh vi viz oooV
man or woman living. 1t is by similar
course men have sought to raise a storm
against Gov. Wakup, for it will be seen
that though the Board of Directors are
sometimes mentioned, all the venom is cast
upon him. He was immediately Y in charge
of the prison, He, according to Graham
and McCauley) volunteered to take this re-
sponsibiity, and then has failed to do those
things which should have been done, and
done those things he ought not to have done,
and there is no good in him.
But there are some facts which never
should be forgotten by the people. In the
first place, the actual expense of feeding
these prisoners, (and there have been more
of them,) has been much less under Wal
kup's administration of the prison than ever
before for a like period, since 1858; they
have been more secure Y guarded, better fed
and clad than at any time previous.
These are facts that no one intends to dis
pute and they form a record for Walkup
that will last long after these vile defamers
and their yet more vile abettors and pimps,
have sunk back to their original nothing
ness, and are covered as in grave, with the
loathng and contempt of good and true

Es- AS the time of year for nominating
Conventions is approaching, candidates for
nomination on the county Legislative tickets
begin to appear. In the Broderick, or as
they love to style it, the Anti-Lecomptou
party, (play upon the compound word Of
gul-trap) we hear mentioned for the office
of Senator Philip Stoner, Of Auburn, I. S
Todd's Valley, Thos. Moreland, of Damascus,
J. w. Scobey, Of Ophir, L. B. Arnold, Of
Iowa Hill, and J. G. Ball, of Placer county
This list comprises all the good stump-speak-
ers of that party in the county. The chan
ces for nomination are considered best for
Ftzsimmons. AS yet we have not heard
any names mentioned for the Assembly
ticket.

FATAL MINING ACCIDENT-The Placer

FATAL MINING ACcIDENT.-The Placer
Courier learns from Dutch Flat that Henry
Schilling and F. Buehrman, Germans, were
killed by cave in the Grey Eagle claim, on
Friday, May 9th. The two pipe-men in the
claim made their escape, and gave the alarm
in time to the unfortunate men, bu: fatal
curiosity to see the caving, prompted them
to stay near the sliding ground, until escape
was too late-they were buried beneath the
mass.

MORE LUMPs.-A friend writing us from
Oregon Bar, on the Middle Fork of the
American, says, a company working claim
in the hill at that place, in which there are
some quartz veins, lately took out five beau
tiful specimens of gold, slightly intermixed
with quartz-the largest piece weighed l9
ozs. The estimated value is not given us
All the pieces were obtained within foul
days. From the prospects taken from one
of the quartz veins in the claim, it is esti-
mated that six feet of it will yield $6,oOo
and as far as known the balance will pay
good wages. Gilbert & Co., are the owners
of the claim, and are considered to have
struck "big pay"
