CALIFORNIA STEAM NAVIGATION CoMPANY.-By
reference to the advertisement of the company
on this page, it will be noticed that the time of
leaving Rcd Bluff has been changed to Tuesday,
Thursday and Saturday. Fast and comfortable

II is great convenience to the people Of North
ern California, and the Red Bluff agent evinces
his interest in the company's welfare by keeping
the time of leaving constantly before the people
of this remote section.

EFFECT OF CIVILIZED INTERCoURsE.-Th BUI
letin is informed that before the Powhattan left
Japan, that Government had commenced stamp
ing Mexican dollars, intending to make them the
legal currency of the country. The reported
difficulties in the way of trade with the japanese
are said to be greatly exaggerated. Some of the
books brought by the japanese are said to be full
of vllanously obscene illustrations, showing
that "a very high standard of decacy and moral
ity has not been attained by that nation. as they
seem to have no scruples in exhibiting them.

GONE TO FRAsER.-Richard Falshaw, of Little

and says he was last heard from on Trinity river
We will give Mr. Falshaw all the information we
can. Mr.. Hcsletinc lived on Trinity river until
the summer of 1858, sometime during which he
got the Fraser river fever, and went there Du-
ring the succeeding year frequent intelligence Of
him was received here, and We believe when last
heard from was on Thompson river. DO any Of
his old friends on Trinity know where he is now ?

MINING ABOUT DOUGLAS CITY.-We are in
formed that the miners on Smiths Flat, on the
opposite side of The river, are doing uncommonly
well. Through the winter times were very dali
in that section, and those opening claims feared
there would not be water enough to enable them
to pay expenses. However, there is plenty OF
water to be had now, and out of some twenty
claims there are but one or two which are not
paying large wages--fIom 81 to $50 per day, to
The hand-and everybody in high spirits.

EASILY EXpLAINED.-Th Washington cores
pondent of a San Francisco paper, in narrating
the little squabble between Congressman Burch
and Scott OF this State, states that Scott had to
be taken home in carriage by his friends. Some
persons might suppose that Burch had inflicted
serious injury On Charley, but such was positively
not the case. Knowing the circumstances and
facts of the set-to, we have only TO say that if
we had been referred to in like manner, the CON
cluson would naturally follow that it was a case
of eight" and that we couldn't walk home.
Probably Charley had taken a drop too much,
and perhaps, said word or two too many which
caused the innocent tracas, and had to be taken
home by his friends for his own sake.
