LOVES STRATEGEM.-A wedding took place
ly romantic circumstances "A fair maiden of
that place was promised in marriage by her
father, who is a publican to "a eountryman
whose abiding place is North San 5uan but
the damsel loved ano:her-a younger and a
better looking man, whom alone she declared
should be her welded lord. The ''cruel pa
rient' decided that his will must be obeyed
in the matter and on Monday locked his
daughter up in her room and started for this
place in quest of the man of his choice.
While he was gone the lover of the girl stole
her through the window-oh blind PARENT!
and the two started on keen run for the
nearest justice, whose office is about half
were stopped by an officions pursuer, where
upon the youthful and most brave" drew a
revolver presented 1T, and gallantly declared
that he would eight for woman quicker
than for his grub!" This settled the qucs-
tion of Intervention, and the fngacions lovers
were allowed to proceed. Reaching the abode
of the Justice. who was happily not away,
they were at once united in the holy bands
of wedlock, and returned to Cherokee in less
haste than they left it. When the outwitted
father Joined them with his expectant friend,
and learned that the gordian knot had been
tied, his esprit was tremendous and fearful
to behold" and the feelings of the dsap-
pointed lover can be better imagined than
described.

BRANDY CITY.-This place is situated on
Me north side of the North Yuba, in Sierra
county, only few rods from the Yuba line,
s1d about seven miles from Camptonv:lle
The diggings were discovered in 1862, Ivy
Saml. Taylor, and are Of the same charac-
ter as those at North San Juan The first
water was brought in from several small
streams which did not afford a permanent
supply. Subsequently the Hoosier Flume
was undertaken by Cole & Stevens, and
completed about a year ago. 1t brings thir-
teen hundred inches of water from Chero-
kee Creek, tributary of the North Yuba,
distant about twelve miles, and cost about
100000. For good part of its length it is
constructed on the sides of PERCEPTIONS and
rocky mountains, and crosses several deep
gulches. The proprietors have lately com.
pleted large reservoir.
There are six companies now washing and
doing well, namely: Forbes & Co., Libby &
Co, Belding & Co., Harper & Co.. Arnett l.
Go. Libby & Co. cieanedap last week from
seven days run, 81 ,oe5: and Belding & Co.,
from run of the same length, $1,000.
In the vicinity of Brandy City are other
mining localities which contribute to its
support. Grizzly Hill, for instance, one
mile south, where several companies are
washing with good success. a very extern
sive gravel range stretches around the town,
and will hereafter prove as rich as any pla-
ces now being worked. The country is very
wild and difficult of access, except to pack
animals, and the winters are cold and snowy.
Under these circumstances Brandy City is
not place Astounding in domestic Joys
There are but few homes, and not children
enough to require a school The town con-
tains two hotels, restaurant, fourprovision
stores, a bakery. butcher shop, shoe store,
smithery, one cigar and fancy store, three
billiard saloons, enc hardware store, two
livery stables a small church, Lodge of the
L Clampsus Vitus, two physicians and two
lawyers. Near town a new saw mill has Just
been erected, in place ofone recently burnt.
The inhabitants are connected with the out
side world by means of Comforts Express
which runs to Camptonville.

The FIRST -SHIp.-I.ate accounts from
the East describe briefly the successful pas
sage of Wse's balloon ship, the atlantic,
from st. Louis, Mo-, to North Adams, Jeffer-
son county, n. Y, a computed distance OF
S64 miles, which was made in % hours. This
was at the rate of 80 miles per hour! 1t will
be remembered that Prof. Wise expected to
find an easterly air current about two miles
above the earth, all aronants agreeing that
such current exists, and is as regular in its
flow as the gulf streans. Whether he was
borne along by this, or drifted at the mercy
of chance winds, does notappear, no partic-
alars having been received. As "a reporter
for the No. Republican was one o. the three
passengers who accompanied the 1aantic, vi

navigation was only one Of time, and hope
to survive its successful solution. Some folks

HUMANE.-The editor of the Mariposa Ga
zette has won peculiar kind of reputation
by the frank and humorous expression of
many things which most people do not like
to say, though, they may think them, and by
such sarcastic hits at the fair sex as are gen.
orally considered indicative of "woman
hater." But Holmes has gentle heart, as
witness what he says below
ave pity Chinaman now in Jail; verify,
between the poor devil and death there is
but one step. He has been convicted of shy
ing one of his own countrymen, reprieved
for time, and a new trial granted. AT the
present District Court his fate is to be deter
mined, and it seems likely to go hard with
"John," whcreat he is all the time in tears
and supplcation, aud won't eat anything.
All that he has will he give for his life, which
is not much. He has already died half a
dozen deaths, and his body and soul are
emaciated The sight of his face, pallid and
death stricken, as he peers out from his
CRATES upon the bright and beautiful world
is enough TO excite commiseration in hear,
of stone- He don't want to die; being in q
state of heathenish darkness, he don't know
where he will go, and he is afraid"

NORTHERN DISTRICT FAlR--On two or three
occasions before this we have called atten-
ton to the fact that fair was to be held in
Marysvile by the agricultural, Horticultu-
raj and Mechanics Society Of the Northern
District Of California" commencing on the
30th day of August, and ending September
Sd. The name of the Society is very ong,
but its object is excellent. Every northern
county should be represented at its first fair,
and contribute to make it success. The
mining counties especially we hope to see
make full exhibit of their productive ca
pacity, in all departments of earth tillage,
metal-seeking and manufactures. 1t is time
people in the lower country were disabused
of the opinion that the mountain commune
ties are making no real progress towards
pcrmanency, and we can best convince them
of our progressiveness through the medium
of fairs. All who desire 10 aid in this should
become members of the above Society and
have their articles entered at its Office in
Marysville, by 10 O'Clock on Monday the 29th
of August The Premium List can be seen
in the Marysville papers, and will afford all
needed information. Lists can also be seen
at this Office. We observe that the first an
nual address will be delivered by VIM. II.

THE SENATORIAL DUEL.

1t is not probable that an election cam
/ paign ever before developed so much person
ality as characteristics the one now raging in
California. Two honorable Senators, fresh
from the highest legislative body on this
continent-fresh from the august delibera-
tlons ofthirty-three soyereignties-are trav-
efIng back and forth through the State, inn
peacliing one another before their mutual
constituency, accusing each other of the
meaneSt, most disreputable and most. cul-
pable acts, hurting from the stump charges
| OF mendacity and dishonesty, of treachery
and venality, such as, if true only in the
scorn and consign them both to an immedi-
ate disgraceful retirement Whether all this
is anything more than an excess of that de-
famatery speech which disgraces every po-
litcal campaign in the United States, and is
not seriously meant, we cannot pretend to
determine. The uncertainty of our mind on
this subject is aptly described by the para
doxical argument of the old Greek A GER
tain person remarked that all Cretans were
liars. Himself being one of that people, it
was said, that he must be a liar, and conse-
quently all Cretans were not liars. 1t is not
to be presumed that honorable Senators
would speak falsely so that these two must
really deserve all they say of one another;
yet honorable Senators certainly could not
be guilty of such actE, and hence they must
be talsifiers.
Seriously, the position in which our Sem
ators have placed themselves is disgraceful
alike to them and to the State and their
present conduct can serve no useful purpose
except it be to sicken the people of parti-
zanship by the exhibition thus made of its
utter denravity. How will it elevate the
character of the State abroad to have it
known that two federal Senators arc run
ming muck of personal slang and mutual
detraction How does it flatter our pride to
reflect that we have representatives who are
voluble only on the stump, eloquent bat in
abuse, and Ingenious only in recrimination?
But perhaps the gentlemen hareentered into
a friendly compact to biacken ene another's
characters in order to insure future political
success. Perhaps these ''ferocious insults"
these damning accusations and fierce invec-
tives are mere .'Sound and fury, signifyng
nothing" Who knows? At any rate, the
public have heard enough of them, and
deprecate this verbal duel-this bespattering
with foul expletives, which is compromising
the reputation of an entire commonwealth.
