The Fire Oh Wednesday.

MARYsvILLE April 4th, 1861.
EDIToR DEMOCRAT In noticing the fire IF
yesterday in your issue of this morning, you
mentioned that carpenter refused to lend
ladder because the owner of it was not in.
The workmen in the shop Of Messrs. Bald
win d Curtis. situated immediately opposite
to the house which was on fire, justly feel
that the iiliberal act will be attributed to one
of them. 1t is their desire, as well as my
own, to have the statement corrected and as
l was the person to whom the ladder was de-
MED, and also gave the item (vcrbally) to
your reporter, | would here state that the
circumstance did not take place at the shop
of Messrs. Bald win d Curtis but at another
close by. viii you make the correction and

FATAL SrABBING AFFRAY.-A stabbing af-
fray took place in the bar-room of the Placer
Hotel, on Friday the Goth inst, says the So
nora Age, in which Mr.. L. T. Baxter late one
of the proprietors Of the Hotel, was stabbed
to the heart by one John Kenny, the stew
ard of the establishment, and died almost in
stantly. 1t seems that some angry feelings
existed on the part of the steward toward the
late proprietors, and harsh language was
used by him respecting them, for which he
was being reproved by some gentlemen
about the place. Mr.. Baxter also interfered,
a scuffle ensued when Mrs. Kenny, coming
suddenly in from the DINING room, struck
Baxter in the head with a tumbler and broke
1t in number of pieces almost the same
moment, the husband stabbed him with
stietto, with about six inch blade, point
ed and sharp on both edges The deceased
fell and expired almost Immediately. The
offender was arrested and locked up in iail

WENT THRoUGH THE FLUME.-Several head
of wild cattle were driven through Nevada,
on Sunday last. The Democrat says the ami
mails took after number of persons, hut for
tunate)y no one was hurt. The most viciou'
animal of the lot, large, ferocious bullock
after chasing several persons, rushed down
Main street, and undertook to jump over the
Mammoth Company's Aume in Little Deer
creek. But he had overestimated his jump
ing powers instead of going over, he landed
in the Aume and was carried down and shot
out into Deer creek by the force of the water
He was alive when he landed in the creek
but died before he could get out.
