Among the witnesses at the trial il
Mariposa of the Chinaman All Fong
Tor the murder of All Cow, were Al
Hung, the wife Of the deceased. Yune
Lung, Oh Yes, Go Long, Oh Now, Bad
Luck, GIFT Sick, and Z. Bett. These
~Celcstials with odd names were all
sworn after the manner of Chinadom,
by signing their names to a slip OF
yellow paper, setting fire to it and
letting it flicker" out of the window,
with sundry comical gestures and in
carnations. We learn furthermore,
that the e%migrants from the Central
Flowery Kingdom" in California have
formed themselves into five charitable
associations-thc Sec Yup, with Is, 100
members the Heong Shang or Yong
Wo, with 1880 +; the Sam zap, with
5000 ; the Ming Heong, with 5000 ;
and the Sun On, with 400 members.
On the evening of the 9th of No
vembcr, the family of Mr.. White, near
Soda Springs, was aroused by a start
ling noise near by, and on proceeding
to investigate, found that the noise
proceeded from a pine tree near the
house, and looking up beheld one of
their young calves in the mouth of
some animal, but what it was, they
could not discover in the darkness.
Henry White, having brought out his
rifle, fired at the glaring. eyes, being
the only part distinctly visible, when
down came the calf, and along with
it the largest panther ever shot in the
country, measuring from the nose to
the tail, (the latter not included nine
feet and three inches. That was a
pretty large animal, even supposing
that the Yreka Union had allowed the
the tail to be measured and included
in the "nine feet three"
At Mertinez, recently, Mr.. Asa Bow
en-, while on a shooting excursion,
fired into a flock of sand-hill cranes
and wounded one, but did not kill any,
owing to his shot being too small.
On going up to get his prize, the
wounded ranc raised a yell, which
brought to his aid a large number of
his friends, who showed fight, and Mr..
Bowen, in his endcavors to keep them
at bay, actually wore out his buggy
whip, and was forced finally to return
to his buggy, leaving the cranes in
possession of the field.
A gang of New York thieves, who
arrived at San Francisco in the steam
er Hermann, were compelled to sit for
their daguerreotypes by the Chief of
Police, much to their disgust. Their
character vas revealed by a New
York detective, who went out with
them.

tg FAKE NoTIcE.-We would call the at
tcntion of our readers to the advertisement
found in another column of to-day's paper, of
that great and popular remedy, DIR. Mann's
celebrated Aguc Balstm, which seems to be
working wonders in the cure of chills, fever
and ague, So prevalent in the western country.
1t is not often We notice a patent medicine,
indeed We have never pulled one before but
DIR. Mann's Balsam is something SO superior
to any other found in our market, that we
cannot forbear asking the attention of our
readers to it. When We remember the vast
amount of suffering caused by this scourge of
the west, among all classes of citizens and
many constitutions racked and DESTROYED by
this malady, and the different cures offered
and proved unayailing- it is truly gratifying
to us, and will undoubtedly be to our patrons
and friends, TO learn that a remedy has ut last
been discovered and placed within the reach
Of all, and one that will do all that is claimed
for it. Give it Il trial. Sold by all good drug
gists. 1

THE ST. Lou1s ELECTroH.-The st.
Louis Democrat of the 2lst ult. says
that the testimony in the contested
election case of Blair vs. Barrett,
which it has carefully examined,
proves that eight hundred and forty
six fraudulent votes were cast for
Barret in the August election. The
names of the fraudulent voters are
given, and in a large number Of in
stances their residences are pointed
out, and the fact of their having voted
illegally, and that they voted for Bar
rett, is brought home in a manner SO
convincing as to leave no room for
doubt. In many cases the proof is
the admission of the parties them,
selves ; in others the proof is made by
persons who know the parties, and
the fact Of their having voted without
having a right to vote. a censu ia
ken Immediately after the election,
afforded the means for developing
many cases. But the frauds were
confined to a comparatively small
area. 1t was, indeed, this fact that
first attracted the public attention.
Mr.. Blair's gains over his vote at the
preceding Notwithstanding in the
aggregate to about five hundred
were equally distributed over the
whole district.
