The Olympia Pioneer saws /:

FRASER RIvER-The British Colonist Of
June Sth, says: We have just seen a miner
from Fraser river, who has been at work
nearly two years, mostly near Boston bar; he
wintered up there last season. He informs
us that there is no doubt but the miners in
that vicinity have found the old bed of the
river, at an elevation of some 60 or 10 feet
above the present course of the stream, and
that wherever it has been struck, it will pay
$l2, Sl4 and SIC per day to the hand. He
says that on the present bench and bank dig
gings, when the proper bitches have been
completed, the miners can work at least 8 or
9 months
He declares that diggings on Fraser river
are only in their infancy. The Chinese are
buying up claims wherever they can get
them, and most men at work are doing well.

SURVIVE OR PERIsH-THE SCIENCES OF LIFE
AND DEATH!-We observe that a machine for
casting bullets, capable of turning out one
hundred and sixty rifle balls per minute, has
been started at Washington. Twice as much
attention is paid to the science of killing as
to that of curing More than five hundred
instruments of wholesale destruction have
been patented within the last twenty years,
and only two great curatives Hollowav's
Pills and Ointment, have been introduced
within that time 1t would seem, however,
that these medicines pretty fairly balance the
account between the healing art and the sci
ence of destruction. The probability is, that
they save much greater number of lives
than patent rifles, pistols and cannon destroy;
and as their consumption is increasing in al
most geometrical ratio in this country, the
odds in their favor are augmenting every
year. The late California papers represent
these remedies as accomplishing the most ex-
traordnary cures in that State, and especial
ly in the placers, wet and dry. That most
tenacious Of internal diseases, dysentery, is
said to have lost all its terrors in the eyes of
the miners since the introduction of the Pills;
and the virulent eruptions and ulcerous dis

FoUR INDIANS KLLED.-We learn, says the
Red Bluff Beacon of Wednesday, that some
of the citizens living on the road between
the Sacramento river and Hat Creek, came
across FIVE ofthe most desperate of the Pitt
river Indians, few days since, that were
sent to Mendocino by Gen. Kibbe, who had
made their way across the Coast Range and
crossed the Sacramento river at Lafferty's
Ferry, and Immediately fired upon them,
saving all but one, who was small boy.
Last week, small party of Indians on
Battle and Antelope Creeks, killed bullock
belonging to Mr.. Crumly, on Payne's Creek.
The owner and some of his neighbors found
the meat on Battle Greek, hanging up, in
trees, to dry, and wsited for the savages to
come back after it, but owing to the noise
they made, they never came close enough for
them to get shot, The next night the red
skins set fire to the dwelling house belonging
to Mr.. Alberty, on Battle Creek, which was
entirely consumed.

ALEXANDER H. STEPHENS will be 40 years
old on the eleventh of February next When
you first meet him you will be impressed by
his almost boyish appearance. and it is only
when you examine him closely that you see
the evidences of age and intellect in his
countenance. His frame is that of youth
of fifteen, his features unnaturally small, his
voice futelike and his constitution evidently
very feeble. But in this fragile form there
resides an indomitable will and an almost un-
matched intellect. He is a Hercules in states
manship Titan in mind, and knight in
chivalry and in courage. There is daring
in his conceptions and fearlessness in the
manner in which he executes his conceptions,
which show that he is fit for any crisis.

Coal MINES IN CONTRA CosTA.-A corres-
pondent sends to the S. F. Herald some spe-
cimens of coal from mine recently discov-
cred in Contra Costa county, with the fol-
lowing note:
"The samples of coal sent you are from a
newly discovered mine, situated in Contra
Costa county, about four miles from the june
ton of the San Joaquin and Sacramento
rivers, and about twelve miles from Martinez
1t is owned by Mathewson Cutler and few
others The mine prospects well, and the
they are now hard to work at it. To give
you an idea of what those who should know
something about coal mines think of this
one, four hundred dollars were offered the
other day for fourth interest in it, and the
prospects now are more favorable than when
the offer was made"

BAD RUMoR,-It was currently reported
yesterday, says the S. F. Herald of Wednes-
day, that Daniel E. Sickles, Member of Con-
gress from New York city, had cut his wife, s
throat in the City of Washington the day the
day the steamer left New York. The news
is brought by passenger, who declares that
it was so commonly reported in New York
little while before the steamer sailed. 1t is
said that Mr.. Sickles caught his wife in fla
granite delictu and Immediately put an end
to her existence. Who her paramour was, or
what became of him, we have not learned.
The above is open to doubt, from the fact
that the last heard in this quarter of Mrs.
Sickles, was to the effect that she was trav-
cling in Italy with her father, and no an
nouncement of her return has been made by
the Eastern papers.
The Overland dates to the oath, four days
later make no mention of the affair.

We received information (Which may be
considered entirely reliable) that Heenan and

on or about the 25th of July. 1t appears that
Heenan refused to take up the original
stakes, and, according to the rules of the
ring, another contest was rendered necessary.
The exact time is not made public, for the
reason that it is considered desirable to keep
the affair as private as possible. Only 25
spectators including the seconds, are to he
allowed on each side.

CATION they declared first for Cameron, sec
ondly for Mclean, and third for Lincoln, saw
ing that they could carry the State for either
of the three, and that they could not carry it
for Seward. The effect of this trap, set by

Lincoln stood next to Seward. Finding that
