FRENCH CLAIMS ON PERU.-We publish in an
other column to-day correspondence between
the Peruvian government and the French Mi
mister of Foreign Affairs in regard to certain
claims which France is pressing upon that re-
public. The exposition of the Peruvian Minis
ter gives truthful exhibition Of the manner
In which claims are created and pressed by tho
subordinate representatives of European Pow
'ers upon the weaker governments of this CONT
merit; and in view of our increasing relations
and Intercourse with the republics south of US,
the whole subject is becoming one of great i'm
portance to this country The practices and
misrepresentation of Gabriac, the French Mi
mister in Mexico; of Levraud, who held the
same position in Venezuela; Of Monsieur Belly
in Nicaragua, and of Monsieur Huet, the French
representative ia Peru, are all of piece, and
have Be small influence in continuing the poll
teal Gl order aud revolutions so frequently
wilressed in those countries.

PACIFIC RAILROAD BILLs.-Two bills for a
Railroad and Telegraph line across the con-
tinent have already been introduced in the
United States Senate-one by Wigfall, of
Texas, the other by Gwin, of California
That of Wigfall is highly commended, and,
from casual reading, we conclude rightly
1t provides for two roads; one to be located
on the Southern route, the other on the Cen
trial. the former to run south of thirty -four
degrees the latter to-start north of thirty
eight of north latitude. St. Louis is about
thirty-eight and half ard that city woald
doubtless be the Eastern terminus of the
Central line. The bill appropriates every
alternate section for six miles ON each side
of the line, and provides that one million in U.
States five per cent bonds shall be issued
upon the completion of each fifty miles, to
the extent of S35 200, 900 to each company;
said bonds to be paid in the transportation
of mails, munitions of war and officers and
soldiers of the Army. Besides the land, the
Companies would receive from the Govern
ment, in bonds, 900 mile. Were such
a bill to pass, we do not see why the two
roads could not be built The names united
in the bill as representing the two Compa-
MES include ONE of the first railroad men
in America; and from that fact we infer
they have been consulted, and have given
their assent to the bill of the Texas Senator
in preference to the plan of endorsing bonds
by the Government, suggested by the Rail-
road Convention which met in San Fran
CISCO Union.

ST. PATRIcK's DAY.--The l7th of March
has been for many centuries dedicated to the
memory of Saint Patrick, who christianized
Ireland during the fifth century, and is pop
ularly believed to have banished from that
lovely island the offensive and dangerous
reptiles with which, before his time, it is
said to have swarmed Whether this be so
or not, the holy man did very useful thing
to humanity by substituting the mild reli-
gion of Jesus for the cruelties of ancient
idolatry. Historians are not agreed whether
the saint was native of Scotland, Corn
wall or Britain, but the return of the day
sacred to his memory is celebrated by Irish
men wherever assembled, the world over
We do not know whether the 18th of March
is the anniversary of his birth or death, but
a common agreement to observe any day in
honor of a man, no matter what reason is
assigned, is sufficient cause for such obser-
ance. The day will be observed at our
neighboring town of Cherokee by grand
ball, the managers Of which have been se-
lected without regard to religious opinions.
The proceeds of the ball will. be applied to
the payment of a debt still due on the Cath
olic church. The dance will come off on
Friday next.

PROTECTION AGAINST FmK.-Another effort
will be made to protect the town against
fire. 1t is proposed to lay along Main street
eight inch iron pipe with hydranss and fire
hose attached. supplies of water to be drawn
from the large pipe of the Eureka Lake Ditch
Company, which will soon be laid across
the town. In this way any amount of water
desired can be procured, with pressure of
about 125 feet-suffcient TO force stream
over the tallest buildings and far up the ell
ovation of Flume street We understand
that the Ditch Company Will cheerfully con-
sent to have its mammoth pipe tapped, and
that the whole work can be done at cost
quite inconsiderahle compared to the secu
rity it will give property. A previous plan
of this kind failed because of "a disagreement
among citizens as to the relative merits of
pipes and engines, it being supposed that
the flume would not give fall enough. The
committee entrusted with the matter became
convinced that the money would not be forth
coming, and dropped the whole thing in dis
gust. Against the present plan no sound
objection can be urged, and doubtless citi-
zens will subscribe for its immediate prose-
cution.

CALAIS! Poor YoR,cK !'-Wm. Burton. the
actor, scholar and writer, is dead. He was
the well known founder of the theater which
bore his name-formerly known as "Palmo's
Opera House'-in New York City, and which
succeeded MitchelFs "Old Olympic" as a tenn
pie OF wit, humor and music. 1t was for q
number OF years the most popular place of
amusement in Gotham. How often we have
laughed within its walls until our sides acbed
and tears ran down our cheeks, while the
whole audience was similarly affected, and
even the actors could not maintain their
gravity, at sight and sound of "Old Billy's',
exquisite humor. Who that saw can ever
forget his "Capn Cuttle'' in "Dombey &
Son? Burton will be talked of by thou
sands of New York play goers, for gener-
alton to come. 1t is probable that he has
not left his equal as a comedian on the stage.
He was an Engfishman, and had established
high reputation in British theaters before
coming to America. He was also known
for many years to the citizens of Philadel-
phia, not only as an actor but as a writer
1t was in this city that he published the Sc
rial known as Burtons Magazine, which was
the best American periodical of its day, and
was edited for very short time by Edgar
A. Poe, to whom Burton was very kind
Burton wrote great many light pieces for
the stage, beside his periodical contributions,
and compiled few years since "Cyclope-
dia Of Wit and Humor." He is said to have
made fortune at his profession, and at the
time of his death must have been more than
sixty years of age.

CoNsTITUTIoNALCo LCoNvENTIoN.-A legislative
committee has astonished the country bv
declaring that the constitutional convention
project received majority of the votes cast
for members of the legislature, at the last
election; they, therefore, report bill calling
for such convention, to be held on the first
Tuesday in August, the election of delegates
to be made On the first Wednesday in June.
This is better than we dared hope for, and
1t is to be hoped the bill mentioned will pass
and receive the Governors sanction. We
have been in favor of calling a convention
to form new constitution for several years
ever since the population of the State first
had the appearance of stability, and seemed
to- take enough interest in public affairs to
warrant belief that delegates would be se-
lected capable of adapting our fundamental
law to modern requirements. A new con-
stitution framed by good citizens and intel
ligent ones, would prevent great deal of
troublesome, befogging legislation, simplify
the administration of general and local gov
ernment and effect large reduction in pub
lie expenditures, and, consequently, in the
amount Of taxes.

SUNDAY CLoTHEs.-A traveller on the upper
Sacramento relates this incident to the S. +.
Herald:
AS we were admiring the Indian children
[who were running along the bank in state
of nudity it being Sunday morning, a very
circumspect and polite gentleman traveller
from Kentucky remarked to our ladies on
the quarterback, that ''they" (the children)
had not yet put on their Sunday clothes,
but that it was expected they would do so
during the day. The apology was accepted
in silence. and the ladies sought some other
objects to gaze upon; but the fact remained
un changed.

RED DoG.-That is the euphonious and
county, concerning which we learn this amu-
sing circumstance. It appears there is an
Office of Eangton's Express at CAMS Ru5rum,
the agent of which asked Patterson, of the
Nevada Office IAN ingenias and waggisA fell
low who has general charge of the smaller
agencies around Nevada) for stamp or SEAL
Pat. complied with the request by engraving
dog on block of wood, and instructing
the expressman to stamp it on letters with
redtnk which would read Red Dog plainly
enough to anybody who could read at ALL
The joke was appreciated, and the symbolic
cal stamp put into use. This looks like a
return to first principles
The hydraulic press., 1860-03-10

We are sorry to obseve that Gov. Downey
lends the weight of his approval to the
prayer of 5000 petitioners for a law declar-
ing highway robbery capital onense. We
have heretofore opposed the enactment of
such law as a retrogression to barbarous
usages, ,as totally inefficient, as likely to add
murder to robbery, as disturbing the just
gradation of punishment, and calculated to
defeat the ends of justice by increasing the
dithcalty of procuring convictions. We are
confident the Legislature will not violate
common sense and humanity to the extent
of passing such law.

COLUMBIA HILL.-All the companies that
have washed any this winter have done well.
Brown i Co. cleaned up last Saturday
$4,000 Their water bill for the run was
5000. Lucas & Co took out $500 iu six
days. The Empire Company and others
have been doing well, but we cannot learn
the amount of yields. Weaver's ditch is now
under contract from this point to the Back
bone House. Miners on the Ridge below
San Juan are said to be furnishing material
aid. There are over fifty men at work upon
it already, and as soon as Spring opens, it
is expected that hundred more men will
go up from Columbia Hill and finish con-
tracts they are now prevented from laboring
on by the snow.
BACKBONE RIDGE.-Clark 4 Co. are run
ming tunnel into this ridge near Dickson g
ranch. They have struck soft gravel that
prospects we'll, under a heavy bank of ce-
ment. Roberts & Co. have another tunnel
nearly completed. 1t is of great length and
has taken several years of labor. The pro !
prietors have farm near by, upon which
| they have fruit trees that look thriving
They also raise vegetables and will SOW this
season 900 pounds of oats.
GRIZZLY CANoN.-There was a rush of
about a hundred men to the rorth side of
this canon last week, and a great marking
out of claims. 1t was all occasioned by two
men sinking prospect shaft in new place,
and getting favorable looking gravel, though
very little gold. 1t is not improbable good
diggings may be found there yet, as at Ur-
isko.
LITTLE GRASS VALLEY.-Gwin & Co. took
out of their claims after six days run of
bottom dirt, 81 ounces, much of which was
quite coarse. Hannah & Co. have been do
ing equally well.
GRIZZLY HILL.-Thompson & Kitchen have
been taking out, all winter, from $500 to
$500 per week. They use 100 inches of
water which costs them only ten dollars
day. Great preparation is being made for
washing on this hill, and good strikes may
be expected before long.
SAN JUAN HILL.-The Middle Yuba Canal
Company is selling all the water that its
large fume will deliver, and number of
companies are washing with good results.
An interest of one twenty fourth in the Eu-
reka claims was lately sold for S., 900, max
ing the whole set Of claims worth $4,000.
The company owns large body of ground
and has been cleaning up from ST. 500 to
$4,000 a run. The laying of the large pipe
for the Eureka Lake Company has been COM
menced.
The hydraulic press., 1860-03-10

BEwARE.-There is abundant reason to be-
lieve that great many persons are specu-
lating in Washoe silver leads SOLELY for the
purpose of selling at great prices to the un-
learned in such matters. Reports by tele-
graph are daily received in California, an
noancing tremendous discoveries that were
never made, and small interests in the new
veins are offered here at the low rate of from
$100 to $3.50 per foot. 1t is not safe to buy
into new leads at all, without personal in
spection of them, or positive information
based upon reliable assays. Specimens of
rich ore which came from the Comstock vein
have, to our knowledge, been exhibited as
coming from another locality. There is no
finer field for swindling than that opened by
this Washoe excitement. 'Look before you
leap" is an old saying, but wondrous wise
one.
