SUDDEN DEArH-Died, in this city, on Fri
day morning at about o'clock, Donachy
Dhu na Dhou,ai, from injuries received by
being run over by stage, two wheels hav-
ing passed over his body.
Who is, or rather was, Donachy Dhu ma
Dhunai? will be the interrogatory of many.
Well, reader it was poor little dog, who
had nothing in the world to recommend him
but his bright and active little brain and his
aifcctonate little heart overrunning with all
kindly feelings He filled no important po-
sition in life being of no earthly use to any
one; but the rag Of his tail, tie rag of his
toil-there was great deal in that He
had but one foolish habit, and that was the
practice of running ahead of ofvehicles, merely
for the fun of the thing, and barking at the
horses This habit was the cause of his
death. On Thursday evening as one of the
mountain stages came into town, Don, as was
his custom, ran before the horses, barking
and playing in perfect exuberance of JOY,
when, wo to tell, his foot slipped and he fell,
the horses passing over without inuring him,
but the right wheels of the coach crossing
his innocent little body, just above the hips,
and crushing him internally. Kind hands of
those he knew and loved, picked him up,
bore him into the house and nursed him. He
licked those hands in gratitude, but moaned
and suffered, till the hour of in the morn.
ing, when he buried his head in the couch
that had been prepared for him, and died
Tears were shed over little Don-yes, tears
over a dog, but they were honorable tears, for
never pulsated between the ribs of living
thing a warmer, nobler heart than his We
named him Donachy Dhu ma Dhunai be-
cause it was Scotch name, and little Don's
ancestors were Of Scotland.
But enough of this-although we are far
from being ashamed of noticing the death of
one of those truest and best of the natural
friends of man, faithful, generous,hearted
dog.

DRyING THE CHINESE FROM THE MINES
The people of Diamond Springs Ell Dorado
county, on Christmas day, met and passed
resolutions says the Placer Courier, by a
unanimous vote of all present requiring the
Chinese to depart from that district within
ten days from the time that notice is served
upon them; and, further, express determin-
alton to force their resolves by an appeal to
arms, if necessary. That the Chinese are
great trouble in the mines, there can be no
dispute; but their expulsion from the homes
they have chosen for themselves in this coun-
try, under our laws, by mob Of reckless
desperadoes, in defiance of existing laws,
should not be submitted to by the w.abiding
people Of the State.
The Chinese hsve been invited here by our
laws, and the liberality of our Institutions
and they should be treated with considera
tons of kindness and humanity, so long as
the liberal sentiments which have character
lied our government and statesmen, continue;
and no harsh measures for their expulsion
should be permitted by the officers of the
law.

SAD AccIDENT.--We have received infor-
nation from Oakland in regard to a most dis
tressing casualty, in which Mr. and Mrs.
Brissac were dangerously. if not fatally, in.
jured. We learn that Mr. Brissac and lady
were out riding, on the afternoon of yestei
day, when the horses attached to the carriage
became affrighted and ran away, dashing the
vehicle in pieces and severely mangling the
inmates. Mr. Brissac had his back broken.
and his lady was most dreadfuly mangled ;
both her legs We're broken above the knees,
and one of her breasts torn off Further infor-
nation will be looked for with great anxiety
by their numerous friends. When this news
reached the city last night, DR.. Pigne Du-
puytren crossed the bay in a Whitehall boat
as it was too late to take the ferry boat, in
order to give the victims of this accident all
the assistance Possible.-S f. Telegram,

cB- GOV. Weller denounces lobbying in
his message, and it is to be hoped that legisla-
tors will profit 10y the same. The enormous
debt of three millions now burdening the
people, is nearly all the result of this lobby
ing and, unless the cause is reached and
eradcated, the effect will continue and swell
into effect and effect, until the debt never
will be paid, and the State becomes bankrupt;
with all her millions of wealth, native to her
bosom, golden, agricultural, commercial
miserable bankrupt Her people groaning
under taxes, and her politicians, her lobby
ing theying, swindling politicians, emptying

of England with 5000 Americans, killing

Primary Elections.

The recommendations of the Governor in
relation to primary elections are wise and
good, though somewhat indefinite, and we
hope the spirit of them will be acted upon by
the Legislature. Elections are now, as a gen
eral thing, determined long before the candi
dates are in the field because the party simply
ratities what has been done in the conven-
tions, and the character Of the conventions is
directed by the primary elections, where del
egates pledged TO certain men are almost in
variably elected. A great many frauds are
practiced in these primary elections, and the
voice of the majority frequently disregarded,
receive them are not under oath, and there
are otherwise no legal guards and securities
around the act of voting which ensure a full
and fair expression of opinion. The primary
elections of parties should be conducted with
the same scrupulous exactness that is required
at the final deposit of the freeman's vote at
the ballotb box, for the same reason that, il
you want the fountain pure, you must cleanse
it at the fountain-head. Who is really the
choice Of majority of the party as a candi-
date for any given office? This is the i'm
portant point to decide But, in a great
many instances candidate is put forth who
is not the choice of the party, but of mere
wire-workers, and yet the party feel bonnd
to support him, and do it, because he is the
party nominee. 1t is time that this evil were
remedied, and we hope to see the same rules,
precisely, applied to the conducting of pri.
mary elections as are now applied to the
final voting which decides the fate of the
respective candidates.

a REAL CASE OF CHARITY In the Alta Of
Monday, the circumstances of the accidental
death of boy named j. w Ladd, about ID
years OF age, were mentioned which our read
ers will recollect occurred on New Years
day, and was occasioned by the accidental
discharge of IA fowling piece, in the hands of
another child of about the same age. Coming
TO the knowledge of several citizens, that
the deceased boy was the main support of
his mother, and five younger brothers and
sisters, their sympathies were aroused, and
an effort made to obtain something substan-
tial to assist the parent in her trouble and
affection. Mr.. Orrick johnson, of the Eagle
Livery Stable, called on us yesterday, for our
mite, and informed us that he had collected
about 5000 in cash, and had the promise of
various other sums and also that he had re.
ceived from j. Ward Eaton, over 5000 more.
which he had collected for the support of
the family We would say to the charitably
disposed, that any sums left at Mr.. Johnson's
office. on kearney street, between California
and Pine, will be transmitted by him to the
bereaved parent.-AHa.

Indian Reservations.

Gov. Weller, in his message, alludeS to the
Indian Reservations, and, though mainly in
strumental, himself, in obtaining, while in the
Senate of the United States, their establish
ment in California, seems to admit that they
are failure that they were designed as
self-supporting system, but have only involved
the Government in a vast amount of expense,
without materially beneftting the Indians.
This admission by the Governor is we think,
rather too broad and unqualified. We be-
lieve he was right in his original advocacy
Of this system and that no other Will be of
any avail The reason that the system has
SO far failed is because of the ignorance or
faithlessness Of the agents or their employees
on the Reservations or the other or
both-and for the want of sufficient watch
fulness over their conduct by the General
Government We know not whether it be
true or not, but we have heard it charged
that white men on the Reservations are in
the habit of living with the squaws as wives
or mistI esses, or promiscuously debauching
them at every opportunity. If SO, they are
a beautiful set of individuals to teach the
poor barbarians virtue and morality We
have heard furthermore that many Of the In
dians have left the Reservations on that &C
count and that these straggers have com
planned that they receive no benefits from
their labors on the farms, because the white
fol oil hot tIot. all - ID,
this as it may-admit these charges to be
false, and we certainly do not know them to
be true-we are well satisfied that, if the
cause of the failure of these Reservations to
support themselves has not been the faith.
lessness of the agents or employees, it assur-
edly has been their gross ignorance and in

ly be taught to work. and there is no earthly

RtcH QUARTZ DIsCovERY.-A correspondent
at Iowa Hill, gives us the following account
of quartz lode recently struck at Prospect
Hill, which, if true, will produce quite a
turore among the miners in this part Of the
mountains. We have not doubt of the cor
rectness of the statement of our correspondent
so far as his knowledge extends, but he SAYS
the pieces he has seen are "only specimens,
and they may be much richer than the gen.
erality of the rock in the VEIN The follow.
ing is our correspondents account in his own
words
"The Lebanon Company, situated at Pros
pect Hill, struck rich quartz lode last week
the richest, it is thought ever before dis
covered Some think, from the specimens
exhibited, that as high as 100000 could be
obtained from one ton of this quartz. But
these are only specimens The lode is said
to be 10 feet thick, and all the rock obtained,
as yet, as rich as that exhibited There is
great excitement just now in regard to quartz;
W. at will become of it, quien Sabe 2"
Since the above was in type we have got
further news of the great discovery The
vein is stated by our informant to be eight
inches think, and literally studded with gold
pieces of the pure metal having been
taken from the rock in digging, which weigh
from one-half ounce to $l2.
The lode was struck while running a tun-
mel, and it is impossible to form correct idea
of its extent or value.--Courier Yanke Jim's
