HONEY lake FALLEY.-A correspondent of
the Plumas Argus, writing from Honey Lake
Valley under date of Aug. 25th, says:
There is considerable emigration coming
into the valley this season. Their stock gen
orally, looks well and they are saucy and in
dependent a great many families are com
ing through this season, and have noticed
quite large number Of young ladies among
them. They are generally handsome, and
hold themselves (he marriageable portion of
theml at a remarkably high figure Some of
them wear crinolne that is actually terrific.
The number of wagons dc, that have ar
rived in the Valley, are us follows: wagons,
200; horses, $50; cattle, 5000 mules, so
men, 600; married ladies, 100; single ladies,
not engaged, l /; age forty, no front teeth
Children too numerous TO mention.
Politics are very quiet, although you oc-
casionally hear some one cry, hurrah for
Douglas. Breckinrdge stock is very low.
DrrruIvn.-The Columbia Times has the
following:
On Friday last, a very respectable young
man oft name of Petit, while laboring un-
der a fit of delirium, engendered by severe
attack offever eluded the vigilance of those
who were watching him at the Columbia
Hotel, where he was confined to his bed, and
leaving the house wandered about the hills,
almost IN state Of nudity till he was found
on Sunday attempting to wade across the
Stanislaus river, near Abtey's Ferry.
DUE1.-The Lancha Plana Dispatch of
Saturday says;
a dnel came Off at Camaneha on Friday at
10 o'clock, \. ~, between Mike O'Connor and
Joseph Waller. The weapons were rifles,
dstanceaflty yards. O'Connor fell at the
first fire, and report has it that he was
compdcd, but whether from the ball or other
missile, informant saith not. Waller made
all the legal arrangements as to the settling
of his affairs in case he fell We are promis-
ed the will for next weeks issue-rather
think there is something rich behind the
scenes.

a cheat. If 1t is not at once couvcrtahie mo

worthy the name OF money. \ plain statement
in regard 10 our currency is that one dollar

ing more" 1t is based on credit, not Ironey.-
The manufacturer Of these bills virtually take

be told IS to him perfectly satisfactory. Mr.
Sharper sits down quietly and nj the end of
