RESOLUTIONS passed at meeting held
at Gold Bar, of the citizens of Missouri
Bar, Banjo Bar, Louisa Flat, Willow
Bar, Cmcinatti Bar, and vicinity, July
l3, 1859.
Whereas, we believe the recent fresh
cts in the South Yuba River have been
caused by criminal carelessness in the
manner the owners of the Lakes at the
head of the South Yuba build their dams,
therefore,
Resolred. That having suffered no
less than three several times the almost
total destruction of property in our
claims by this carelessness, and that, as
we, as individuals, have no means of re-
dress without incurring the immense cost
of litigation in courts, we deem it most
expedient to form ourselves in body to
repell the wanton waste of life and
property by these daming companies.
Resolred, That we do resist by every
means in our power the rebuilding of
the broken dams, unless ample security
be guaranteed that the safety of life and
property be hereafter properl regarded.
Resol0ed, That committee of three
be appointed to lay our grievances be-
fore the proprietors of the Lake dams,
inform them of the amount of property
destroyed and to demand redress.
Resolued, That we form ourselves in
a body to secure our property, and if we
receive no redress in reasonable time
from the daming company, we will
adopt such measures as will effectually
secure us from a repetition of inju-
ries by the same causes.
Rcsolped, That we, whose names are
affixed, pledge ourselves and our prop
erty, to use every just and honorable
means to carry out any measures that
may be adopted by the majority of the
signers of these resolutions at this or
any adjourned meeting.
Resolved, That we do heartily invite
the cooperation of the miners of JEFF
ferson, Brady Flat, Washington and all
others whose property has been affected
by the freshets caused by the breaking
of the aforesaid dams.
Resolred, That we disbelieve in the
story that is in circulation, that the
dams were blown up by criminals. and
for whose apprehension Gcticious re-
ward is offered.
Resolced, That we adjourn to meet at
this place on the 18th inst, to receive
and hear the report of the committee
above provided.
Resolred, That the above resolutions
be published in the Ncrada Journal,
printed at Nevada, and furthermore, that
a copy of these resolutions be presented
to the owners of the aforesaid dams.

Another Food on the Yuba.-The
miners along the South Yuba had again
the labors of weeks destroyed on Mon
day last, by flood caused by the
breaking of one of the Eureka Lake
company's dams. The water rose we
are informed, fifteen feet in depth at
Gold Bar. sweeping away dams, sluices,
fumes &c, and filling up claims opened
at great expense with tailings. Seve-
raj miners came near losing their lives.
The flood must have done heavy DANA
ges in its course. The miners have 70
encouragement and fear to proceed to
their labors again this season in the bed
ofthe stream. They have no assurance
that another food may not destroy their
laoors before they get fairly at work.
besides the best portion of the mining
season will be gone before the GOLD can
ba reached. In view of their discour-
agemen,s the miners upon the South
Yuba held meeting on Tuesday an5
resolved to protect themselves in every
emergency. They are determined t,
obtain redress by some means and tba,
efectuaily' so they tell us. The reso.
iutlons passed by them in meeting as,
semoied may be found in an authoritive
form IN another column.

The New GoLD DlsCovERY.-We
gave report of discovery of very rich
deposits of gold and silver on the other
side of the Sierras, in our issue two
weeks since. The report created cons
siderable excitement in this city. Grass
Valley, and other parts of the county,
and some fifty or sixty men went over
the mountains to examine into the
merits of the reputed discovery, and to
secure for themselves a slice.
Some of the prospecters have return
ed and made their report. As near as
we can arrive at it, there has been a
very rich lead of quartz discovered be-
tween Truckee Meadows and Carson
Valley. How extensive it may be will
have to be determined by a great deal
of hard labor This far there appear to
be no more indications of extensive
quartz or other diggings at the locality
than are discoverable in any of our
quartz districts nearer home. The rock
is decomposed at the surface and is
doubtless exceedingly rich. Blu. it is to
be borne in mind that the lead lies along
the declivity of a high ridge, is distant
from water not less than seven miles and
wood about the same distance. A report
that quite extensive placer diggings ex-
isted below the lead, is contradicted by
those who have examined the country
latest. They tell us the decomposed
rock, by the action of the elements and
the force of gravitation has been deposi-
ted in places a few inches i'll thickness
and would pay largely if water in any
reasonable quantity could be procured.
But that there are any extensive depos-
its that would last any respectable num-
ber of miners even few months, is said
to be out of the question. The country
gives no indication of any large wash
deposits of any kind.
Notwithstanding the discouraging na-
ture of the reports few of our citizens
are still making trips over the mountains
to see the new d'ggings and recruit their
health. To those who are not confined
by business, or who desire little recrea>
ton and can afford it, and to those who
have nothing to do, we would say, Go
over the mountains and see for yourselves
but take along gun and fishing tackle
and make all you can of pleasure and
profit by the trip.

The administration papers Of the State
are in woful plighs with the letter of
Gen. Cass ON the subject of protection
before them. They attempt to recon-
cile the position assumed by the Secre-
tary Estate with that taken by Cover
nor Marcy in the Kozta case, but 1t is
plain to see they are lily satisfied with
their efforts.
1t has heretofore been held by our
Government that naturaliz'.d citizen
was entitled to all the lights and immu-
mites of the native born that after he
has sworn allegiance to our Government
his duties and rights as cit lzen of another
county wholly and absolu tely ceased and
that wherever he might be he was at
home or abroad entitled as an American
citizen to the protection II of the American
flag.
This doctrine has been reversed in the
authoritative letter of Mr.. Cass to Mr..
LIE Clerc. Mr., Cass informs his inter.
:ogator tina naturalization in this country
will not exempt him from the claim Of
his native country upon him for military
services should he voluntarily return
thither. We append the document:
"DEPARTMENT OF STATE.)

ITO Mr.. FelirLc Clerc. Memphis, Msss:
"SIR: your letter of the 18th inst. has
been received. In reply would state
that it is understood that the French
government claims military service from
all natives of France who may be found
within its jurisdiction. Your naturali-
zation in this country will not exempt
you from that claim if you should voIun-
tariy repair thither. am, Sir, your
oh edient servant.
LEWIS CAss.
The administration papers tempt to
construe the letter as applying only to
case where an adopted Citizen had
quilted our shores to reside permanently
in the country of his birth. The case
they try to make out is on of abandon,
ment ofresident citizenship. The range
of Ger. Cass' letter is much wider.
Under it Senator Soule, if travelling in
France for plea sure like other tourists,
would be liza BILE to military duty. The
glst OF the position of Mr.. Cass is. that

Primary Election Of the Lccomptoms.-
Last Saturday was the day fixed upon
by the Lecomptons for selecting dele
gates to the county convention. In
this city brisk contest resulted in the
election of delegates supposed to be ia
vorable to the nomination of }. B. Van
Hagan for Sheriff. The opposing tick
ct was represented By the friends of
John S. Lambert for county clerk, and
was beaten by about 60 votes. The
whole number of votes cast was $50
which represents fully the strength of
the party in this place.
BROTHER AVERY, who, by the way,
is capital judge, thus speaks of the
grafton of James Churchman, Esq, de-
livered at North San Juan on the 4th.
His address was wholly extempora-
neous, and marked by more force, origi-
nality and suggestiveness than are COM
mon to Fourth of July orations. In the
course of it he drew a striking picture of
the progress our country has made in
eighty-three years-from thirteen in
FAINT States with three millions or SO of
people and aGovernment without credit,
to a powerful confederacy of thirty
three sovereignties. with thirty millions
of people and domain stretching from
ocean to ocean. He also gave a COM
prehensive history of the parent races
from which our own race sprang and
drew its unconquerable love of freedom
and will to be free; and made an elo-
quent appeal for the cultivation of a
brotherly, union feeling, asserting that
we need more devotion to the whole
country and less to lo:al interests and
party creeds. He was heartily applaud
ed throughout. and a closing a|lusion to
the women of California elected three
unanimous cheers.
