in producing the comfort anticipated. A
"cool place" has been in general demand,

whether it will be as long as o6 degs. in the

A Sluice Robber shot and severely Woun.
ded.

On Friday night the 10th inst, China
man was shot while robbing the sluice box.
es of a company Of Germans, on Red Ra.
vine, near Auburn. The sluice boxes of the
company had been robbed six times previous
ly, and on the night in question, one Of the
number being upon watch, discovered and
fred upon the Chinaman, with gun heavily
loaded with large shot, breaking his left arm
near the shoulder, and wounding him in the
back. The men brought the Chinaman to
town on the following morning, and the one
who had fred the shot delivered himself to
the officers, but upon an examination Of the
affair before Justice Grant, he was discharg
ed. The Chinaman, although severely
wounded, it is said will recover.
As stated above, the sluices of the claim
had been robbed six times before, and each
time on Friday night. Expecting the Gus
tomary visit, watch was kept, and the game
caught. There is no doubt that this rascally
Celestial was the depredator in each instance
and selected Friday night for his operations
in order to secure each time the weeks work
of the Company-a cunning trick, but as
the sequel has shown, very unsafe one.

'To fuse-tu defeat the National Democ-
racy," we regard conclusive evidence of
pure and enlarged patriotism. The editor
Of the Herald Is about as we'll qualified to
appreciate the exalted character Of such a
motive of action, as donkey would be to
solve a mathematical problem from Euclid.
Sac. Register.
The above is for the consideration of the
Placer Herald. The assuine comparison is
certainly sarcastic. The editor of the Regis
ter seems to have acquired fee simple inter-
est in the dialect Of the gin-shop, and we are
not disposed to dispute his title.
The "enlarged patriotism" strikes us as very
amusing. There never yet was traitor to
his party, or his country, that did not claim
to be purer than those he deserted.
