sNoM lNp rHE prrcHEs.-some men Who have

Snow AND THE DIrcHEs. Some men who have
been at work on the South Yuba ditch came
down from the company's lakes on Saturday
last. They report that there is four feet Of
snow at the upper lake and two feet at the
lower lake. On the road this side Of the Don
nor cabins, they came across four horses and a
number of head Of cattle which had perished in
the snow, and are supposed to have belonged to
immigrants. When the storm commenced, the
gates at the outlets of the several lakes were
shut down, and by that means about ten feet Of
water was caught in each lake. This will be
sutncient to keep up full supply in the South
Yuba ditch during the winter. In most of. the
other bitches in this part Of the county, there is
little more water DOW than there was before the
late storm.

SERIOUS AccIDENT.-A man named John
White, who has recently arrived from the East
ern States, met with severe accident at Grass
Valley, one day last week. He was at work in
tunnel when the roof gave way and large
quantity of rock and earth fell upon him, dis
locating the spine. He was brought TO Nevada
on Sunday and placed in the county hospital.
His recovery is regarded as doubtful, and even
should he survive he will doubtless be confined
several months from the effects Of his severe
iniures

RETURNED FROM WAsHoE.-Mr.. Foster, the ex-
pressman, accompanied by Mr.. Clark and 9th;
ers, arrived in Nevada on Thursday last from
Washoe Valley, having returned by the Eureka
route. They experienced no difficulty in ma
king the trip, though the snow was from one to
three feet deep on the summit. They crossed
the divide on Tuesday, and doubtless consider
able snow fell on the mountains during the
storm Of Wednesday aud Thursday last.
The Nevada Democrat., 1859-11-16

Found AN OwNER.-On Monday last during
the absence of the family, some person made
his way into the kitchen Of our residence and
left two sacks Of flour, having the brand of the
first premium -four manufactured at the Nevada
FIGURING Mills. Our first impression on seeing
the article was that some heartless creditor had
foreclosed, and taken possession of our subur-
ban mansion, and not finding the larder over
stocked with the staff of life had ordered this
for his own use; but finding no one about the
premises we quietly appropriated the contents
Of the sacks, and find it an excellent article
For the satisfaction of the person who left it
we will state that ii is not onr intention to have
this affair Investigated by the Grand Jury, but
he must be cautious and not let us detect hin
in similar acts hereafter. We are always ab
sent en- Mondays from one O'Clock to four, p NJ

The SCHILLER FEsrIvAL.-In cons equence of
the severe storm on Thursday last, a portion of
were omitted. Mr.. Aue delivered an oration in
German, at the Theater, in the early part of
the evening, and the ball came off at the Court
House according to arrangement. The attend
ance at the ball was not large, on account of
the bad weather, but everything went off in fne
style, and the dancing was kept up until day
light.

GIVING OUT.-We noticed at Birdseye's bank

each about the size of an ordinary brick. The
two bars were valued at $l3.2OO, which was ta-
ken from the claims of the Nebraska Co. last
week. The Nebraska Shaft is giving out

kQUEsr.-Coroner Henry held an inquest,
last Friday, on the body of man named John
Harengont, who died the night previous at
Grass Valley. He arrived at that place in the
Aarysville stage on Thursday evening. stopped
at hotel, stated that he was sick, and went to
bed. physician was called, but the man got
worse, and died about three O'Clock in the
morning. 1t appears he was suffering with the
plsurisy, and was on bis way to the county hos
pital, but being too sick to proceed further
stopped at Grass Valley where be died. He
had been living for some time in the lower part
Of the county.

railroad trains, East and West, were stopped by
the mob.
The arsenal town is in the possession of 5000 or
1000 men, portion of whom are negroes.
1t was first alleged to be an abolition movement,
but it is now supposed to have been instigated and
organized by employees on the Government dam
at that place in consequence of their having been
cheated out of a portion of their wages recently
by an absconding contractor, and that they have
taken this method of getting at the funds in the
Government playhouse,
The President has ordered United States marines
and troops from Washington to proceed thither and
force passage across the railroad bridges, at all
hazards. The Governor of Virginia has also sent
troops from Richmond.

ing not less upon their sharpness an upon Bar
nett's unheard-of simplicity. MIMI, Barnett ID no
countryman or greenhorn, but clothier on the
levee, and evee clothes dealers supposed to be
among the sharpest people in town. The charge
was, that Fossett represented himself owner OF q
raft Of timber at Carrolton, worth $500; that
Barrett ingeniously substantiated this and that
upon their joint representations they obtained from
the store-keeper 5000 worth Of clothing. and $40
in cash. The raft proved to be pure fiction, and
Barnett hasn't even bit Of paper or signiture OF
any kind to bring up against the enterprising firm

RECORDER LoNG's CouRT.-Two men,, handed
over to the police at Milneburg yesterday morn.
ing, from the Mobile boat, were introduced to the
Recorder as dangerous and suspicious characters.
They were well-dressed men, Of honest faces and
genteel demeanor, and even the police were 80
impressed with their manner and appearance as to
succumb to an opinion that they were not rascals.
The prisoners turned out to be gentlemen Of char
acter and standing, well known in this city. They
had gone off on summer frolic got strapped, and
being in wofully tight place, embarked for home
in the Mobile boat without having the money to
pay their passage. This was the origin Of the
charge against them of being dangerous and sus-
picious. The Recorder treated them kindly, and
discharged them; it being understood that proper
settlement would be made with that heartless thing
called the mail boat company.
