TIMBUCToo, March 18th.
EDITOR NATIONAL DEMOCRAT .-Having
been reader of your valuable paper, and
seeing no notice in your columns of our flour
ishing little place, have taken the opportu-
nifty to furnish you with few items IN re-
gard to the mining interests of Timbuctoo.
There is probably no place in California
where gravel mining is carried on more sue.
cessfully than here. The gravel range is not
considered rich, but owing to the inventive
facilities of man whereby mining is reduced
to science. the claims are made to pay those
who invest their capital, from one to three
thousand dollars per year. This amount of
money is realized from the quantity of dirt
washed in short time, more than from the
richness conveyed through fumes from three
hundred to two thousand feet in length.
The Ball clai.l, Live Yankee, Michigan
and Antonio claims are considered as among
the most valuable claims in the country.
The quartz interest is gaining steadily. In
a short time steam quartz mills will be in
operation pounding out the precious ore,
which all are striving to obtain.
A little incident occurred last night, which
was not relished by some of the parties but
the participants in the affair were complete.
ly sold. 1t was rumored amongst the young
men Of the place that one of their number
was about to leave the single state of blessed
ness to enjoy the sweets of connubial felicity.
All were expecting the young man home
with his charming bride. A consultation
was held, and it was decided to give the
young couple hearty reception. The young
man came; bnt where was the bride passed
from mouth to mouth. They soon scertain.
ed he was married, and determined not to be
disappointed in their sport, about IL o'clock
we were aroused from our slumbers by the
most unearthly noises that ever greeted NOR.
tai ear About twenty persons had collected
for the purpose of giving the married couple
a charivari with tin pans and other instru
mcnts which produced the most discordant
sounds the mind can conceive Of We could
think of nothing..to compare it with but ten
thousand cats suspended over line by their
tails, trying to free themselves from each
others loving embrace The happy couple
not being in the place they expected to find
them, they took up line of march for a Ger.
tain private dwelling. After beating upon
the door and disfguring the house generally
trampling flowers beneath their feet, they re
treated up town without discovering the sup
posed married couple; but what is better
than all, our younr friend in whose pure
heart the idea of matrimony had never en-.
tered, after fatigueing ride all day, had re-
tired to rest, unconscious Of the high COM
pliment paid to him outside. The young
bloods have come to the conclusion never
more to rely upon circumstatial evidence, but
must behold the bride before serenading an.
other married couple. w.

A Medical EpistIe.

EDITOR DEMoCRAT:-There are persons ca
pable of transacting business requiring or
dinary capacity, but who, owing to their
acute sensitive organism, become subject to
alteration of intellect when placed in a diff
cult or dangerous condition. One of the
most profound arthmeticians that ever lived,
who could solve problems without any ap-
parent effort, yet in everything else was an
imbece.
Thisview is justified by high unquestionable
medical authority; "Moral insanity displays
itself in want of selEgovernment. Not
uEfrequently persons affected with this form
of disease become drunkards, and have
strong tendency to vicious habits" Who
fulfils this condition? "An individual after
having undergone an unusual degree of men
tai excitement, becomes confused in mind
he appears scarcely to know what he says
he indicates the troubled state of his mind
by singular gestures, by singular appearances
of countenance, and by actions which cannot
fail to strike in forcible manner every OBJ
server"
One has remarked that "there is a false
perception or imagination of things present
that are not; but this is not constant nor
even frequent attendant of the disease
wv have often seen a lunatic under this
form of disease walk up and down fire.

HALIFAX, Feb. oath.
The Cunard steamship Canada, Capt.
Laing, has jast arrived. She left Liverpool
on Saturday. Feb. 18th, and brings seven
days later news than was received by the
Prince Albert and Africa.
Liverpool advices state that the political
aspect of affairs on the Continent has under.
gone some change, and during the early part
of the more pacific rumors predominated, but
the latest advices are of more warlike char.
acter.
Notwithstanding the pacific sentiments
which have been uttered by the Emperor Ma.
poleon and his Minister, Count Morny, the
action of the French Government goes far to
weaken confidence in the Emperor's express
ion of desire for peace.
Warke preparations are still continued
on large scale in nearly every military and
naval department of France.
The Paris Bourse has fuctuated considera-
bly, during the week and continues sensitive

The proceedings of the English Parliament
comprise nothing Of general interest or i'm

The Sardinia Chamber of Deputies had
ratified the loan of so, 100000 francs. Count
Cavour explained that the loan was called
for by the critical position of Italian affairs,
and was designed to be used for the defense
of Sardinia against the threatening attack of
