From FRAzKR's RIvER.-The steamer
Douglas, from Victoria, brought down to
San Francisco $4,000 in Frazer river gold
dust The rush for the Upper Frazer con-
tinues. The river is very low, laying bare
some island bars OH the Upper Frazer that
have proved extremely rich. The general
desire, however, seems to be for rise in
the river. The Buka diggings, contrary to
the first impressions of last year, are proving
the most remunerative. A nugget Of gold,
has reached Victoria, from Fort Simpson,
weighing l44 ounces, and is valued by good
judges at $3.50, or about SIS the ounce. 1t
was obtained of the Queen Chrrlotte Indians,
who carefully concealed all information on
the subject

Ak IMPRESSIVE DHATH.-At Yarmouth
Nova Scotia, it 10 customary for some of the
worshippers, at the close of the sermon, on
Sundays, to offer-on the invitation of the
pastor-some remarks by way of exhorta-
ton. On a recent occasion, Capt. John
Hilton rose and addressed the congregation
in calm, impressive manner, closing with
the admonition, "Bo ye also ready, for in
such an hour as We think not the Son of Man
cometh," when he sat down, and instantly
fell from his seat a corpse. The deceased is
represented to have been a worthy and ex-
cellsnt man in all the relations of life He
passed from this world to better, as his
friends hope and believe, without struggle
or q sigh.

JENNY MAHER, whose death we reported
some days ago, has been gardener at the
White House, in Washington, since the days
Of Jackson, with whom he was favorite.
A few months ago il was reported to the
President that Jenny was getting irregular
in his habits and neglecting his duties. Mr..
Buchanan therefore considered it his duty to
admonish the gardener of the charges brought
against him. Jenny was summoned be-
fore the President, who said to him, "Ah
Jenny, hear serious charges against you.
hear you get drunk and neglect your du-
ties" To which the veteran, with his quick
Irish wit, replied, And may it please your
honor, hear much worse stories about you,
but sure do We think believe word OF
them ?" The President smiled and Jenny
retired with his head on his shoulders But
he has been summoned now to the presence
of higher than Presidents or Kings

A DARING BURGLARY.-Mr. Hamilton, q
farmer, living two miles west of Corners
vile, was robbed of S843, on Saturday
last, by two burglars, who forced an entrance
into the house about midnight, and seizing
him, one held him while the other rifed his
trunk and pockets. He had recently lost
his wife, and the only person staying with
him was young grand daughter, who was
at a neighbors on the night of the robbery.
The old gentleman had drawn 81 900 from
