CoURT OF SEsSIoNs.-The trial Of Ed. Briscoe,
indicted for being concerned in the robbery Of
Weiss store on Bear river, was concluded
about two O'Clock last Wednesday morning.
The jury, after being cut an hour, brought in
verdict of guilty, and be was subsequently
sentenced to five years Imprisonment in the
Penitentiary.
Geo. G. Townsend, indicted for an attempt to
rob sluices at Grass Valley. was tried on Thurs
day and convicted. He was sentenced to two
years in the Penitentiary VIM. r. Curry, in
dicted with Townsend, Withdrew his plea Of not
guilty, on Friday. and plead guilty to the
charge. He was sentenced to one year in the
Penitentiary.
The case of Chas. Sanford whe was indicted
with Brooks for attempting to rob A. Sanford,
was taken up on Monday morning. The prin-
sipal evidence relied on to convict the prisoner
was that Of his father, A. Sanford, and was
scarcely of a character to warrant jury in
finding verdict OF guilty. Young Sanford
had been on intimate terms with Brooks and
Soda, they had frequently slept together in the
store, and the parties who attempted the rob-
lsry came in about the time young Sanford
was in the habit of going to bed; for these rea-
sons Mr.. Sanford supposed that one Of them
was his son, although Brooks was the only one
whom be saw The case was given to the jury
ct two O'Clock, P. NJ, but they were not able to
agree on verdict and were discharged yester-
day morning.
A. G. Allerton, who was indicted jointly with
David Jacobs and VIM. Vorrath for robbing the
sluices of the Mammoth Co., was tried on Sat
urday, and the jury found verdict of guilty.
Allerton was convicted on a well-linked chain
of circumstantal evidence, but there is consid-
cradle doubt as to bis guilt He occupied the
same cabin with Vorrath and Jacobs, and the
TO the sluice boxes and back again, and about
fifty dollars worth OF amalgum was found in
the cabin, in watch pocket which had been
cut out of pair of pantaloons belonging to AL
lerton. One of the tracks fitted a pair of boots
worn by Jacobs, another fitted the boots OF
Yorrath, and the other track fitted pair OF
gam boots which we're found in the cabin that
belonged to Alerton. On this and other evil
dence of similar character Allerton was con-
victed. But a motion for new trial was made
BY his counsel yesterday morning, on the
ground OF newly discovered evidence and
among the afidavits read was one made by
yorrath and Jacobs, in which they swore that
ahey committed the robbery; that Allerton was
absent at the time and knew nothing OF it; that
while engaged in the work one Of them return
ed to the cabin for an instrument to sweep
down the boxes, and while there exchanged bis
boots for the gum boots of Allerton, and that
tbc watch-pocket in which the amaIgum was
found was cut out Of an old pair of pantaloons
that were lying in the cabin. The motion for
new trial was argued yesterday and taken
under advsement by the Court until to-day.

venture in the spring in the Kansas gold

We have barely sufficient provisions in
this country to subsist those already her e
until the season Of advantegeously trans :
porting new supply which can hardly
be sooner than the middle Of May,
about the time that mining operations
can be resumed by the masses. Every
man who reaches here before that time
should bring supply Of provisions and
clothing sufficient until the first Of June.
and also come with the expectation Of
doing little or nothing before that lime.--
There is little use in leaving the Missouri
River before the latter part Of April or
The first OF May, unless it be those who
have friends here, or who come with
view Of speculation and plenty Of money.

brated in accordance with the ancient
custom. The waters Of the deluge fell
for forty days and then covered the
earth for forty days. The Savior tasted
in the wilderness forty days. Moses fas-
ted upon the mount forty days. This
day is called Ash-Wednesday from the
universal custom Of the carly Christians
Of dressing in sackcloth and casting ash
es upon their heads to express their hu.
nili.y and mortality. Easter Sunday
