A CmSAMAN ON TIME.-The other day,
on the Railroad train from Sacramento to
Folsom, Chinaman dropped his hat over
board, and nothing daunted by the speed
at which the cars were going, jumped from
the platform to recover it. His sudden con-
tact with terra irma caused him to spin
over the ground like a ball; but picking
himself up without hurt, seized his sombero,
and making after the train actually caught
up with it at the next station. John is de-
scrlbed as having made excellent time, and
is now considered formidable rival to eli.

CLAY VOTED FOR BRECKlNRIDGE.-In1 1S49,
after his return from the Mexican war, Mr..
Breckenridge became a candidate for the
Legislature in the Lexington district, and
although it was largely Wing at the time,
he beat his competitor by a handsome ma
jority. Henry Clay, although politically op-
posed to Mr.. Breckinridge, voted for him
in that manner testifying his admiration and
respect for the rising young statesman who
to-day is the Presidential standard bearer of
great national party-and we doubt not
that were the sage of Ashland living now he
would again support Mr.. Breckenridge.

VERY PANFUL.-Thc Douglasites of California
are squirming on account of the Douglas-Repub-
lican fusion in the Oregon Legislature to elect
Col Baker, (Rep.) and Nesmith, (Doug) to the
United States Senate. fearing its damaging effect
upon them in this State. Their alarm is well
founded-as number Of Douglas men have
had their eyes opened by the conspiracy, and
found themselves in bad company in time to
save their reputation as Democrats.
There is no doubt whatever that the Oregon
bargain is complete. as the Oregon Democrat
says the paper has been seen whereby the Repub-
licans and Douglas members pledge themselves to
Il fusion and election of u Senator from each of
their parties.

The COLUMNS WoN'T SrAND.-The Nation,
the Douglas organ of San Francisco has
been trying it's hand in building H. political
columns of States-giving nearly the entire
North to Douglas, including Maine; and a
majority of the Southern States to Bell, in
cluding Texas. South Carolina alone, was
set apart for Breckinridge. A few days
afterward Maine was heard from as having
gone Republican by an increased majority,
thus taking the top off the Douglas column;
and Texas came rolling in shortly after with
Democratic majority of 1000, very much
to the damage of the Bell column; and the
State elections Of the present month will so
far carry out the work of demolition that
the columns will be destroyed from base to
capitals.
The Nation is an unreliable builder.

SroRM.-The first hard storm Of the fall
season commenced on Wednesday, after a
weeks threatening. Through Wednesday
night and a part Of Thursday sufficient rain
fell to raise the rivers about three inches.
On Thursday night, for time, it came down
in torrents-and we fear has destroyed fun.
ing operations for the season. If so, river
mining has been an unfortunate business
this season, as most of the fluming compan-
les were but just beginning to take out pay.
AS a general thing, on account Of the high
water, miners were month later than usual
in getting into the rivers this year, and
would have required until the first of No
vember to have had working season of the
ordinary length.
So far we have heard but the loss of one
fume.
