Tom MARSHALL IN THE MEXICAN WAR;
CAPTAIN Thomss f. Marshall 1.-THE whilom tenn
perance lecturer) was in the habit Of coming
on parade in state quite subversive OF all dis
cipne and army rules. Captain Clay, though
the strictest of all the captains in obeying and
requiring obedience, determined to give Mar
shall a hint of his disapproval. So as soon as
he became officer Of the day, when his
command was highest, next to that OF the
Colonel, he donned his military dress, and,
riding up to the guard-house, he cried out with
loud voice, "Oficer of the Guard" When
the guardofficer appeared, he said -" / com
mand YOU to empty the guard house of all the
prisoners; so long as / have command in this
regiment, no soldier shall be punished while
CAPTAINS are allowed to violate the rules Of
war with impunity-" The guard-house
was empted, and expectation was on tiptoe
to see the issue of this fragrant breach of duty.
But no notice was taken of the affair by the
Colonel. AT the next encampment the famous
quarrel took place, in the presence Of the whole
regiment between Capts. Clay and Thomas
f. Marshal Clay proposed to fight Marshall
on the spot with broad swords, but Marshal
pleaded that it would embroil the regiment.
Thereupon Clay most bitterly replied that
"Marshall, at Lexington, did not fear to pro-
yoke by the most iniiammatory appeals, an
affray, when women and children were in dam
ger, and Clay himself overpowered by supe-
rior force, but here, when they met on equal
terms. where men wore swords and war was
the profession of all, he feared to embroil 9TH
ers Such plea was the refuge of poltro on
and an assassin p The next day Marshall
tried to drown himself in the San Juan River
Such was Cassius M. Clays revenge upon
the leader of the Lexington mob Of lS46.-N.

MARRYING AT RANDoM.-One of our JUS
uces OF the Peace was called yesterday after
noon to go to German house in the city and
marry couple. Putting on clean collar, and
placing marriage certificate in his pocket. he
started for the festive scene Arriving at the
mouse under the direction of blue-legged lit
te boy, who pointed out the place, he Knocked
aid went III. In the middle OF the floor stood
a stout German girl sorry and plump, her
blue eyes rolling out tears as large as butter
pats. "What's the matter 2" said the sympa
thetic Justice.
''Matter," said the girl, ''Dat GotIeib wend
off and wouldn't marry me, amt 1t :" The
Justice said he supposed it was, and intimated
that he had come to marry some one, and re-
quested the old lady to bring on the lambs to
the sacrifice. Old lady said 'dare vas no
Iambs-Goteib is run of, and will not marry
my Katarina" "Well," said the Justice,
"Gotleib isn't the only man there is-send for
some other man to marry her" At this Kata-
rina's face Frightened up, and she calculated.
"Yah dat is goot-send for Hans" Hans was
sent for, but he couldn't come. When her
messenger returned, Katarina, determined not
to give it up so, said, "Send mid Shoseph."
Shoseph was sent for, but he couldn't be
found.
Katarina's heart fell at this news, and the
Justice was growing impatient. Just then
Katalina looked out of the window, and saw
short and thick young German gong by,
when she rushed to the door, and halooed-
"Fritz Fritz p Fritz shortly made his APP
pearance at the door, when Katarina's mother
said, "Fritz, lofs my Katarina Z" Fritz ailow-
ed he did more as sauerkraut. "Then stand
up here" thundered the Justice and before
Fritz could realize his position, he was man
and wife and Katarinas arms were around his
neck, and her lips pressed to his, she crying
between the calesthenics, "mein husband
men Fritz" Our duty as a correct historian
compels us to say that Fritz Rugged back as
well as he knew how. The Justice, with head
erect, stepped smngly out, leaving the lovers
to themselves, and walked away meditatively,
holy calm stealing all over his massive pro-
portions, the consciousness Of having done his
duty cleaning in his eye, and honor, honesty,
and rectitude in his tootstep.-Bc6alo Repub-
lie.

PuTRID SORE THRoAT.-The Amador Ledger
says that this fearful disease is prevailing to con-
siderable extent among children in that section
four or FIVE deaths having occurred within few
days. Parents cannot be too careful OF their little
ones, and should, on the appearance Of the nr't
symptoms Of the disease take immediate steps to
arrest its progress. II taken hold Of at an early
stage, the disease is easily managed, but If permit
ted to take its course few days, tits almost certain
to prove fatal The first symptoms are slight fever
with soreness in the throat. When the child COM
plains Of this, examine the throat, and il found to
be infiamed and presents a cankerous appearance,
send for physician, and in most cases the life Of
the child will be saved.

The California papers still persist in calling our
rich mining region the Washoe Mines. They COM
init great error in so doing, and we know not who
bestowed shat n anne upon them. The Virginia Dig
gings are uistant about Is miles from Washoe Val
ley, across two OF three spurs Of mountains.
We clip the above from the Territorial Enter
prise, published at Carson City That paper
may not be aware that the term "washoe," as
used by the California papers, is intended to
designate the whole country on tho eastern
slope Of the Sierras, from Honey Lake to the
Mono Diggings. II the people Of Western Utah
would adopt an appropriate name for their pro-
posed Territory, /. would be adopted by the
California papers but papers will not use the
name "Nevada," for the reason that 1t is liable
to be confounded with the county and town Of
that name in California. The name "Washoe"
is, perhaps, as appropriate as any that can be
adopted for the proposed Territory and We hope
the California papers will continue to call the
country by that name.

The ISsuRRKCTroS-TRIAL OF "OLD BKOwS."
The trial of Brown, the leader of the insur-
rection at Harper's Ferry, was held at Charles
town, Va, and at the latest dates from the Eas',
the testimony had been taken, and the case was
to be argued by counsel and submitted to the
jury. Brown refused to allow the plea Of in
sanity to be entered in his behalf, and stated
that so far as he was able to judge he was per-
fectly sane. He was doubtless convicted, as
there could be no question Of his guilt In
fact, so far as the trial has been reported, no
defense was attempted. Two or three Other
parties engaged in the affair we're to have been
tried after Brown. A large number Of letters
and papers are said to have been found in pos
session Of the prisoners, duplicating prominent
men of the Northern States in the affair, but
the names of the parties implicated have not
been published. The first reports Of the insur-
rection stated that tho insurgents numbered
some Ave or six hundred men. But it appears
that only seventeen white men and five negroes
were engaged in the affair, all but four or Ave
of whom were killed. number of slaves cs-
esped during the excitement, but it is stated
that not one joined in the insurrection.

DENVER FOR PRxsrDrxr-Th. sh..,. Co0.;

DENVER FOR PREsIDESr.-The Shasta Courier
suggests the name of Gen. Denver as a compro-
mise candidate for President, and says.
at is known that Gen. Denver enioys the
confidence and warm friendship of both the
President and Mr.. Douglas. OF the latter Gen.
Denver has long been an ardent admirer.n
Gen. Denver's speech for the last campaign,
at least the way he delivered II in Nevada,
proved him to be any thing but an ,'ardent nd.
mirer' OF Douglas, for he denounced the I'LL.
nois Senator in as bitter language as be could
command, for his "factious" course on the Kan.
sas question, aud spoke approvingy of the ef
forts Of the President to elect Lincoln to the U
5. Senate over Douglas. Gen. Denver has been
pulled into notoriety by certain newspapers Of
this State, and every effort has been used e
manufacture him into great man; but Denve,
isn't the kind Of timber out of which rres
man can be whitfield.

SALT WATER LAKE.-The Alta is informed that
a Salt water lake or inland sea, not laid down on
any map, has recently been discovered in Lower
California. 1t is nearly one hundred miles long,
and varies from twenty to fifty feet in width. The
entrance to the lake, which is little north Of the
9th degree of north latitude, is between two low
sand banks not more than 1000 yards apart, and
the channel is crooked and shallow-the water at
full tide being about three fahoms deep, and at low
tide not more than two. Between December and
April, the lake abounds in COW whales, which go
there to calve, and whaling captain who first dis
covered it about two years ago, filed his barrels
twice, and in very short time, before the discovery
became known. This lake is little south Of Ce-
dros Island.

LATER FROM TIM NoETH.-The steamer North
erner arrived at San Francisco, on Sunday
morning, from Victoria, having on board Gen.
Scott and suit It is stated that Gen. Scott and
Gov. Douglas have come to an arrangement in
regard to the San Juan Island dispute. The
island is lef: in the military charge Of Capt.
Hunt, Of the U. S. army, with one company OF
troops, and the redoubt erected by the orders
of Gen. Harvey is to be dismantled. The civil
jurisdiction is under Mr.. Crosbie, an American
Justice Of the Peace. The residue of the forces
lately on the island have returned to their for
mer stations. The matter is thus TO remain un-
til the question in dispute is settled by negOta-
tiOn. Gen. Harney was at Fort Vancouver.
Gen. Scott is in nne health, and was to have
left for the East on the John L. Stephens, which
sailed on Monday.

SrHANER OvERDUr.-The steamer Cortez, with
the New York mail for October goth, is now
some ten days overdue, and fears are beginning
20 be entertained for the safety Of the vessel
The passengers by the Golden Age report that
that vessel encountered severe storms on the
way up. II is thought by some that the North
Star was detained on the other side, and that
the Cortes was waiting at Panama for the ar.
rival Of that steamer with the mails. II ap-
pears that the steamers Atlantic and North Star
left New York about the samo time, and were
In sight Of each other for three days, when the
North Star fell behind, and there was some
talk on the Atlantic that an accident may have
happened to the machinery Of the other steam
or. But this was mere conjecture, and ths
most painful anxiety Is felt for The safety Of th,
passengers Of the Cortex.

RAILROAD SURvEY.-Mr. Sherman Day, civil
engineer, is now engaged in making . survey
Of . railroad from Folsom to Auburn, and we
understand he offers to continue the survey and
give an estimate Of the cost Of the road 10 Ne.
vada for six hundred dollars. II parties inter-
essed In the prosperity Of this portion Of tho
county would take hold Of the matter, the mon
~ for the survey could be easily raised, and
che FIRST practical step towards the construction
of railroad to Nevada would then be taken.
With reliable survey Of this route, and the
cost ascertained, company could be formed,
and we believe . sufficient amount of stock
would be subscribed in this county TO insure
che completion Of the road. Property holders
10 Nevada, could we'll afford to invest half their
means in the stock, for the completion Of the
road would more than double the value Of town
property. Let such road be constructed, and
Nevada would soon become the most important
interior town Of the State.

BRUTAL AssAULT.-on Sunday, the 18th inst,
near Jenny Lind, in Calaveras countyya miner
named David Christy assaulted and brutally
beaten and mutilated by two men named Perry and
Dobson. 1t appears that Christy had sold cabin
for eight dollars and the others wanted him to di-
vide the money which Christy refused to do, aleg-
ing that he had only been paid one dollar. Upon
this they attacked and beat him numerically, and
cut off one Of his ears to make him divulge where
the money was. Christy finally escaped from his
tormentors who were afterwards arrested and COM
mitted on the charge Of mayhem. They are now
in the county jail in default Of bail-Perry in the
sum Of $5 900, and Dobson in 81 900.

SAT DOWN AND CRIED.-At an early day in the
history Of Columbia Hill, Nevada county, three Ger
mans began to sink a shaft in gravel bottom. The
earth and gravel cemented as hard as rock, and
the process Of cutting down was slow, painful and
expensive. The laborers cultivated garden around
their cabin and made enough from its easily raised
products to support them in the prosecution Of their
enterprise. They constructed machinery and raised
the dirt from their shaft by water power. Perseyer-
ingly they worked and at last struck bare granite.
There was no gold there to reward them! and as
they looked into the shaft and thought of their three
years task, now unproftably ended, their hearts
grew weak and they sat them down and cried. Who
shall smile at their despairi Perhaps in far off
iatherland fond hearts were expecting them, and
helpless ones looked to them for support. Upon
this enterprise the stout workers had counted for
the means Of happiness and now its faue bade them
abandon hope and widened the gulf of separation
between them and the dear ones whose image rose
up in their desolate bosoms. Thus often is the
miner foied after twice three years Of courageous
effort. He may not always sit down and CRY like
these poor Teutons, and perhaps does not even
abandon hope; but the drudgery Of another enter
prise is less bEhly endured, the home vision grows
dim, his countenance sad, and the resolution with
which ne abors on is not cheerful but stern He is
disappointed man.-Hydraulic Press.

AN EXPEDITION AGAINST GUAYMAs-The san
Francisco correspondent Of the Sacramento Bee
nrofesses TO have received information that an ex-
pedition has been organized in San Francisco
against Guaymas, in Sonora. He says that BODY
Of six hundred men have been enrolled, that three
hundred took passage on Wednesday evening last
on board sailing vessel, either the bark Gold Hun
ter or brig Glencoe, for Guaymas; that the Othel
three hundred have rendezvous three miles out
side the city, where they can go without exciting
any suspicion. They are to rendezvous down thu
coast, and the vessel is to lie on and off the LAND
until they arrive, wheE they are to be taken OF
board. Several .well known citizens OF San Fran
cisco are said to be among the flibusters. The Sar
Francisco Herald, aluding to the rumor, says there
is no foundation for It.
The Nevada Democrat., 1859-11-23

TRUcKEE TURSrKE C0MPANY.-We learn from
the San Juan Press, the preliminary orgauza-
tion Of a company under the above name has
been effected. for the purpose Of constructing o
wagon road 10 the eastern slope through the
Henncss Pass, and connecting with the present
road from Marysville to North San Juan. The
capital stock is fixed at $4,000, divided into
three hundred shares Of 500 each. Subscrip-
tion books were opened on the Nth inst, and
stock TO the amount of 500, 800 has already been
subscribed. Another meeting is to be held
next Saturday to effect a permanent organiza-
tion, and the construction Of the road 10 now
placed beyond doubt. The route through the
Henness Pass connects with the Eureka route
near Jackson's ranch, few miles this side Of
the summit. This route, however, Is too cir.
cuitous to be OF much benefit to Nevada, and
the distance is some twenty miles further than
that by Cooper's bridge and Eureka. From
North San Juan 10 Jackson's ranch. the dis
tAnne ia perhaps Ahont the same by either route;
though We believe, il the two roads were con-
structed, that the Eureka road would take most
of the travel from Marysville by way Of San
Juan.
