SURPRISE PARTY-Rey. l. B. Fish and
wife were the recipients of deserved COM
pliment from their numerous friends in this
place, on Friday evening Of last week. The
ladies, who are foremost in kindly deeds.
gathered in force at the Parsonage, accom-
panied by number of gentlemen, and TAX
ing full possession of the premises dispensed
impromptu hospitalites to the clerical FAM
lily, and presented, moreover, most substan-
tial tokens Of their regard The evening
was spent in manner pleasant to all con-
cerped. Mr.. Fish and lady gratefully appre-
ciate the kindness of their friends, and desire
US to say so. The position of Christian
minister inCalifornia, where the institutional
church and its officers are not always sus-
tanned with the liberality which is necessary
and right, is very delicate and worse than
physical hardships. For this reason, such
indications OF personal regard as the above
are ever particularly esteemed.

ANOTHER CHINESE SUIcIDE-On Thursday
night miserable, emaciated Chinaman hung
himself from one Of the roof timbers of a
mean hovel in which he had been living
alone, back of Wooster's store, near Flume
street. He had formed moose with q por-
ton OF his own garments, passing it under
his chin and up by his ears, and allowed his
weight to deperd from it while his toes
touched the ground. He had been suffering
from hernia of the worst description, aggra-
waited by an attempt he had made to procure
relief by cutting the parts with razor DR..
Webber had very kindly attended him of
late,. but John preferred DEATH An inquest
was held on Friday morning by Justice Far
quhar, and the poor devil consigned for
burial to his countrymen, who seem to care
more Cor one another when dead than when
alive and in need of aid and sympathy.

TIE GRAvEYARD.-Onr suggestion with
regard to beautifying the graveyard has had
some effect already. The Masonic fraternity
have laid off piece of ground for separate
enclosure, adjoining the Odd Fellows lot,
have set out number of young spruce, &C.
dar and madrone trees, and are breaking up
the soil preparatory to sowing it with alfalfa,
which vii! afford a green growth the year
round. Several other parties intend plant
ing shade trees inside5the fence which sur-
rounds the oleyard.

Ex-Governor McDougall lately delivered a
very striking and eloquent lecture at Sacra-
mento, on the Pacific Coast, its characters
tics, wants and destiny. He predicted a
brilliant future for California, but insisted
that her citizens must realize it by their own
exertions. The following paragraph is quite
noticeable:
1t is marked fact that within twenty-five
degrees of north latitude all the high civili-
zation of the earth has been produced. All
the great States of ancient or modern times
had their centers within the parallels which
mark the boundaries of our State.

HONEY LAKE.-According to the Plumas
Argus this lake is still dry, and likely to
continue so, except for a short time each
spring. We suppose, says the Aryus, that
should this prove true, and the former bed
of the lake be transformed into well kept
meadows and cornfelds, the prosperity of
the valley would not be materially retarded
thereby. The population of the valley is
about eight hundred. Considerable mining
excitement obtains, and there is probability
of hostilities with the Pi-Ute Indians.
