BENToNsvLLE, June 90, 1861
Mr.. EDITOR Please allow me to speak few
words through the columns of your paper about the
sayings and doings at Smithield on Wednesday last
This was the day that the Lone Star Company, I'M
der Capt. Lane, was expected to leave for Garys-
burg, but it did not do so until the following morn
ing. In the evening the company marched to the
Methodist Church where there was large crowd of
ladies and gentlemen in waiting. All having been
seated, silence deep as death pervaded the room.
After the expiration of few minutes, the Rev.
Mr. Parker rose and held up small paper box, from
which he took new and beautiful flag, which he
said was made by Miss Mary Powell, and presented
to the Company through Messrs A. q. Powell and
c. B. Sanders. The motto on the box containing
the flag was DO or Die! which it is believed will be
faithfully observed and carried out to the letter.
Mr. Parker, in behalf of the Company, accepted
the flag in neat and appropriate address, speaking
in complimentary terms of the fair lady who made
and presented it.
He said this flag would be taken to the field of
battle but that it would return, that it would not
look perhaps like it does now, new and beautiful,
fresh from the fair hands that made it that it might
be soiled and widowed, yet we should see it again.

RICI QUARTZ LEAD.-Mr. G. W. Colby in
foruis US of the discovery of very rich
quartz lead, on the opposite side of the Yuba
river from Snow Point. and about two miles
from the town of Minnesota. Mr.. George
Fellows, who had been watchiug the lead
for year or two. took up claim and COM
menced working it in March last. H. sunk
shaft and at point where he struck the lead,
came upon rich pocket out of which he is
known to have taken Sll 900. This was
obtained by merely pounding up the rock in
hand mortar, and washing it out in a paH.
Mr., F. having informed Colby Of the distoy-
cry, the latter took up and recorded four
claims-for himself and Messrs Pattison and
Philip, of Nevada, and Briggs, of Orleans
Flat. The latter company having run tun-
mel into the lead, have lately struck another
pocket, out of which they have already taken
three -four sacks of the richest kind of de-
composed quartz From some average speci-
mems sent to Nevada. it is estimated that the
three -four sacks of rock will yield from
$4,000 to $4,000 in gold. We learn that
Mr.. Fellows has erected mill near the lead.

rock which, it is thought. will pay several

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE-A Mrs. Journey, who
is confined in the jail of Sacramento county,
upon the charge, we believe, of being acces-
sorry to a MURDER attempted suicide on We'd
nesday evening The Union relates the mat
ter as follows:
At about sunset Wednesday evening Mr..
Journey, at the county Jail, received from the
hands of little daughter ofGeorge Cooper a
package, under circumstances which aroused
suspicion that she contemplated suicide
Having been out of her room by permission,
she received it at the front door and at once
retired to her room When Deputy Warden
Barrett asked for admission she declined TO
open the door, stating that she was changing
her clothing. In the meantime information
was brought in to the effect that the girl
whom she had sent to make the purchase
had applied for landanum at Taylor's drug
store aud when refused it had obtained 1t at
Klink d Martfelds Barrett and officer Deal
insisted upon iaer passing out to fSnern The vial
which she had just received. but she persls-
tently refused to do so. They together with
her husband, G. w. Journey, effected an en-
trance into her room, and discovered vial
which was found to contain lobeia On fur
ther search, another vial was afterwards
found secreted behind the door, which con-
tanned laudanum. She at first discaimed any
intention to destry her life, but afterward ad-
mitted that she designed taking it for that
purpose on going to bed. 1t will be remem-
bered that she attempted to drown herself in
the slough, prior to the time at which Her
mosilo was killed. Much of the time since
her imprisonment she has beec quite cheerful
and contented At other times she is greatly
depressed by the circumstances of her posi-
tion and condition.
