SECEssIONIsTs. Sheriff Van LuVen, OF
Gan Bernardino county. has lately publish
cd a card in the Patriot, in which he says I:
There are held in this county midnight Sc
eession meetings. They are collecting all the
forces they can, and ding all they can to as
sist the Confederate principals, for which we
have appealed for troops until our cries have
become lost in the fog ard the commanding
officers have turned their eyes to more peaceful
places, where they can sit with folded arms and
have nothing to do but train.
The S. +. Journal. of Friday last, says +:
We earnestly admonish the military author
tiles here to beware of that organization known
as "Knights Of the GOld1n Circle" otherwise
Secessionists and traitors. We are not speak
ing idly in speaking our firm belief that they
have been collecting large quantities OF arms IN
one Of the southern counties, San Bernardlnoo,
we think, for the purpose OF intereepting Fed
eral troops going East Moreover, they un-
doubtedly have headquarters in this city, and
are IN constant conspiracy.
Gen. Sumner has lately been concentra-
ting a considerable force at Los Angeles

LOCAL MATTERS.

OMEGA DESTROYED BY FIRE.-The town
Of Omega, about twenty miles above Nevada
vas almost entirely destroyed by fire last Satur-
day night. The fire originated in the kitchen
Of the Omega Hotel, kept by Mrs. Hall, and the
almost superhuman exeriions of the citizens
we're of no avail to check the progress of the
Asmes. The fire soon communicated with the
adjoining buildings, crossed the street, and in
less than ten minutes from the time the alarm
was given, the entire business portion of the
town was in blaze. Many of the citizens
merely had time to escape with their lives, los
ing every thing. The total loss was probably
not less than $4,000. Mr.. Phillips, the Ex-
pressman who left Omega yesterday morning,
has furnished us the fotlowin0 lief of loeeee

Rich QUARTz.-We mentioned, week or
two ago, the discovery of rich quartz lead near
Minnesota, and that portion Of the vein had
been taken up and opened by Messrs. Fellows,
Colby, Pattison and Philip. They run a tunnel
to the vein, and took out three -four sacks Of
decomposed quartz, of extraordinary richness.
On Saturday last, having made suitable arrange
ments for working, they commenced pounding
up the rock in hand mortar and extracting
the gold. During the day they took out seventy
two ounces of gold, and it is estimated that the
three sacks of rock will yield not less than
thousand ounces.
THE RACEs.-We learn that workmen have
been engaged for the past week in putting the
Glenbrook course in order, for the races which
commence tomorrow. A number Of horses,
mostly belonging to ranch owners below Grass
Valley, have been entered to compete for the
stakes. A large ampitheater has also been
constructed near the track for the wrestling.
The sports will begin tomorrow and continue
through the week.
