DESTRUCTIVE FIRE-THREE LIVES LosT.-The
greater portion Of the town of Coultervle, in Mar
iposa county, was destroyed by fire on Thursday
last and lady and two children lost their lives.
dispatch from Sonora, dated Friday evening, says:
We can as yet get no full particulars of the fire at
Coultervile. Those persons who have come from
there were SO excited that we could get no partcu-
lars The fire is said to have originated in the fruit
store of David Cohen, supposed to be from the rats
getting in large box containing matches and ignit-
ing them. Among those who were burned, we hear
of Baruch Harris, David Cohn & Co., Davis Schoen-
field, who is said to have lost $4,000. Mrs. Haufi
who with her two children, boy and girl, was on
visit close to where the fire originated, in attempt
ing to leave She house, fell into cellar, and with
her two children was suffocated. Their bodies were
brought to Sonora thsmorning for interment. This
is as far as we can learn at this hour.

A MysTERY-The curiosity of the inmates OF the
mantle Hotel Of this city, has been greatly exeTcis-
hv mysterious affair occurring at that house, which
nav or NAV not mean anything as the reader choos-
o. ~ take L. Here are the facts: On Wednesday
evening. about six o'clock, well dressed lady and
gentleman. without baggage, walked into the Man
t;c Hotel and applied for room. he registered the
name. az. Jones and lady" They were shown to
an anartment. where the gentleman left the lady,
and soon after returned with trunks in carriage
The ady was closely veled but revealed to the SER
want yery handsome face. At six O'Clock on Sun
day morning carriage called for them and they de,
parted. On entering their room the servant found
an old hair trunk, carpet bag, shell basket, and
twelve daguerreotypes, bearing family resemblance
among which she recognized the portrait OF the lady
herself There were also on the floor number OF
envelopes with the Inscriptions carefully torn out
and the letters torn to minute fragments The por-
trait of the lady, as well two others of the lot,
were recognized, by persons in the hotel as familiar
San Francisco faces but they were unable to iden-
tify them Not long after, lady applied at the Nj
antic in relation to the couple and, after examining
the portraits took possession Of that of the mystic
rious fair one, and has not been seen since No di-
rections or note was left with the servant as to the
disposal of the pictures Here is the nucleus of a
Yaler Kiyer novel Of the Sylvanus Cobb style well
worthy the attention of sensation story writer's Up
to this writing no clue has been obtained by which
to unrayel the mystery.-AhG, Oct. I'D.

EcLIpsEs FOR lS6O-There viii be four eclipses
in 1860, as follows:
1. An anular eclipse of the sun, January I'd, in
visible in America. Visible at and about the South
Pole.
II. A partial eclipse of the moon, February 9th,
in the evening. Visible. Size 9,744 digits on the
northern limb.
III. A total eclipse Of the sun, July 18th, in the
morning. In the United States this will be only a
partial eclipse except at Astoria, and the northern
part of Washington Territory where if will be total.
The line of central and total eclipse begins in the
Pacific Ocean, southwest of the mouth ofthe Column
ba river, in lat. IS deg 55 min. from thence it
eastery and northerly through British America and
Hudson's Bay then bends southery across the At
lantic, runs through Spain and the Mediterranean
Sea, then into Africa, and ends by the side of the
Red Sea, in lat. Is deg 48 min sec. N, and Ion.
80 deg. AZ min. f. Of Greenwich. Its size in the
Northern States will be from six to seven digits and
in the South from 3 to 5 digits.
~. A partial eclipse of the moon, August lst, at
IL minutes past II (noon) Washington time hence
invisible in the United States, but visible to
tpodes.

The KANSAS CONSTITUTIONAL dispach to the
Sacramento Standard, giving the news by the
overland mail, says that the proposition for
forming State government in Kansas has been
defeated by 5000 majority" We judge this
refers to the proposition for State govern
ment at Pixies Peak-shc people of that region
having voted In favor of Territorial, and
against State government. The people OF
Kansas decided last spring in favor of State
government by large majority, and Consti-
tuition has been framed and submitted to avote
Of the people, for adoption or rejection. The
election, we believe, was to have been held Oc-
tober 4tb, which is one day later than the advi-
ces received from st. Louis. There was consid-
erable opposition in Kansas to the adoption OF
the Constitution, and 1t was thought the vote
on the question would bo very close.

AWKWARD NAMEs.-The Placervile Observer
calls attention to the awkward custom in
vogue in this country of naming new Terrific
rles, counties, towns, etc. II says:
Should wc speak of the Territory north OF
Oregon by simply saying Washington, it would
at once be confounded with Washington, d. G.
We regret that such name was ever adopted,
and hope that better taste will be shown in
future. Nevada, as name for the Territory
over the mountains, Is subject to the same OBJ
jections. We have large city and county of
that name. Some other name should bc select
ed and we hope will. Tho name of Jefferson
for tho Pixies Peak country is equally objec-
tionabe.
II Is earn estly to be hoped that the people of
the western part of Utah will adopt some other
name than Nevada" for their proposed new
Territory. Let them adopt the name of some
Digger Indian, or any name rather than that of
populous county, Immediately adjoining their
borders. If the residents themselves will not
agree to change the name, then the citizens Of
Nevada county should petition Congress to
adopt some other name for the new Territory
whenever Territorial government Is estab-
lished,

PnoPosrD NEW TERRITORIES. Applications

PROPOSED New TERRIToRIEs.-Applications
will be made at the next session of Congress for
the organization of governments for at least
four new Territories, viz Dakotah, Jefferson,
Nevada, and Arizona. The first Of these, Da-
kotah, contains population of perhaps 10000
or II, 900 souls, and in tho absence of govern
ment recognized by Congress, the people have
gone to work and practically illustrated the
doctrine of squatter sovereignty, by establish
ing code of laws and electing the necessary
judicial and executive officers to carry them out
The other three, Jefferson, Nevada, and Arizo.
mia, are nominally attached to the Territories
of ofKansas, Utah, and New Mexico, respectively;
but the people do not recognize the authorities
Of those Territories and urge many good rea.
sons for the organization of separate govern
ments. II is matter of much doubt whether
government will be organized for either Of
these proposed Territories during tho next ses
sion; the probability is that Congress will have
so much to do in taking care of the nggers
that no attention whatever will be given to the
interests of the white people.

EXECUTIVE APPoIsTMESTs.--Th Marysville
Express complains of Gov. Weller, because he
appointed gentleman Of that county to the Of
ficc of Notary Public, who does not belong to
the Lccompton party. This is the frat time we
have ever seen II suggested that these appoint
ments should be monopollzed exclusively by
the dominant party. In this county, men have
heretofore been appointed Notaries without re-
gard to their political opinions Gov. Bigcr
appointed Wings, Gov. johnson appointed DEM
ocrats, and Gov. Weller has appointed Know
Nothlngs and Republicans The Offices are of
no political consequence, and of no use to any
one except attorneys, conveyancers, ETC., and
there is just as much reason in excluding man
from practicing law or medicine, on account OF
his political opinions as in excluding him from
such an Office rs Notary Public.

STATE Prison Matters State convict,
named Thomas B. Hope, was taken before the
County Judge of Marin county, not long since,
on a writ of habeas corpus, and discharged on
account of defect in the commitment. The
affair produced great deal of excitement at
the Bay, and It was reported that technical OBJ
jectlons could be raised against the commit.
monts of majority of the convicts, and o whole
sale delivery was expected. The courts at San
Francisco have caused amended commitments
10 be made out for some fifty or sixty prisoners
convicted in that county, and the clerks Of The
interior courts are advised to follow the exam
pie of San Francisco. where there 10 reason to
fear that the original commitments are defec-
tive. The most common fault is in stating that
the prisoner Is convicted Of "felony" without
specifying the kind Of felony for which he Is
sentenced. In other cases the seals of the courts
arc not attached to the commitments.

PACIFIC RAILROAD ENvoY.--Mr. T. d. Judah,
civil engineer and protector of the first railroad
constructed in California has been appointed
by the Executive Committee of the late Pacific
Railroad Convention to carry to Washington
tho memorial of the Convention, with instruc-
tions to bring every possible legislative infu.
ence to bear to secure favorable action upon
the same by Congress. Mr.. Judah has resided
at Washington several winters, is familiar with
the details of legislation, and having an extern
svc acquaintance among members of Congress,
is peculiarly qualified to discharge the duties
which have been confded to him.

DIPLOMATIC DIsAGREEMENT.-Adyice from
Washington state that there has been an un-
pleasant disagreement between Secretary Cass
and Baron Stoeckel, the Russian Minister at
Washington, but the difficulty Is less serious
than at first represented. 1t grew out of at
tempts on the part of the local Russian officers
In the North Pacific to restrain American wha.
lers within the limits prescribed by the late
Emperor Nicholas, previous to the acquisition
of California; but It is believed that the present
government of Russia will offer no impedi-
ments to free trade on the part of American
vessels with the growing population on the
banks of the Amoor river.

AUToMAToN MEcHANIsM.-A beautiful piece Of
mechanism has just been completed, says the Sierra
Citizen, and will shortly be brought out for public
exhibition in the State. It was made at Chips
Flat, Sierra county, by four miners. The mechan-
ism represents the whole system Of mining opera
tions in tunnel and sluicing diggings quartz mining
etc., with the men at work at their different
tons, and the machinery is SO perfect that every
branch of mining is fully deineated A quartz mill
is connected with the affair worked by steam 1t is
wonderfully and beautifully gotten up, and will elicit
much praise from the public, to whom it will soon
be introduced.

rhe nr,nes East OF tl,e s,erras.

The moet exsravagant stories are 10 circula-
tion Just at the present time in regard to the
richness Of the gold aud silver mines recently
discovered on the Eastern slope Of the Sierra
Neyadas. We are told that one ton Of the ore
taken from the Bryant lead near Virginia City,
yielded 81, 400 in silver, 1,10O in gold. and
forty pounds Of copper. The ore from the
Ophir lead assayed at the rate of $2,s75 in sill
yer, $4,000 in gold to the ton, and the black
sand taken from the placer mines near the same
lead yielded at the rate Of $4,000 in silver and
$500 In gold to the ton. A one sixth interest
In the mine Of Walsh Il Co. recently sold for
$40, 600, and the ore in large quantities is being
hauled over the mountains for the purpose Of
extracting the mineral. Other statements equal
ly Incredible, and purporting to come from re-
liable sources, have found their way into the
papers These statements should be taken with
many degrees Of allowance, for If the half that
is told is true, the mines on the east Of the
mountains excel In richness any thing ever yet
discovered in California. 1t is not improbable
that ore has been found in some Of the mines
that yields as high as I've or six thousand dol
lars ton, but II is not at all likely that such
ore will be found in any great quantities
1t Is certain, however, that number Of val
liable veins, containing both silver and gold,
have been discovered, and are now being work
ed with profit to the owners; and that other
equally valuable mines will hereafter be found
is placed almost beyond doubt. The veins
are usually found In the barren and desolate
looking bills, and much difficulty is at present
experienced in working the ore In consequence
of o lack Of water. But this difficulty will be
remedied in time; water will be obtained In
some way, either by the construction of bitches
or sinking artesian wells, wherever the mines
are known to be rich enough TO justify the ex-
pense.
1t will, of course, require time to properly
develop these mines and ascertain their extent
and value; but there is now good reason to be-
lieve that the eastern slope of the Sierras will
soon be inhabited by large and fourishing
mining population. The richer and more ex-
tenslve the mines, the better it will be for Cali
fornia; for the miners must obtain their sup
plies of provisions and other necessaries from
this State, which will afford profitable market
for our surplus produce and open new field
for commercial enterprise.
