SMALL BusISEss.-A poor, decripit old
Frenchman, named Frassencour, who is affict-
ed with inAamatory rheumatism, came into
town this morning with the view Of getting into
the hospital. He brought in four quails which
ne had shot from his cabin door, about mile
above town, and which he offered for sale, to
procure something to eat. An individual nam
ed Charles jenkins, who lives in Grass Valley,
happened to discover the quails, and had the
old man arrested. He was taken before Jus
tce Smith and fined FIVE dollars for violating
the game law. The man had no money, but
some Of his countrymen paid the fine. The
game law is undoubtedly very proper, and ought
TO be strictly enforced against professional
sportsmen; but we think it small business to
complain of a sick man for shooting a few
OuaiIs to keep himself from starving, and do
not believe the law was ever intended to apply
70 such cases.
OPPOSITION STAGING.-Messrs. Griffin &
A:herton, proprietors of the opposition stage
line between Nevada and Grass Valley, will
dispatch their stage to Sacramento on the 10th
inst, thus offering good opportunity to per-
sons wishing to attend the State Fair next
week. Passengers will be taken down for six
dollars. Their stage will be withdrawn from
the Nevada and Grass Valley route next week,
but they have made arrangements to procure an
elegant omnibus, which will be put on the road
the week following.
SoxB CoMPoRT.-The report mentioned in
late issue of the Democrat, to the effect that
Democratic Constable had been elected some
phere in the upper part Of the county, proves
to have been a false rumor. We notice, how
ever, on examining the returns, that two Dem
ocratic Justices have been elected-Mr. OCon-
nor, Of Grass Valley, and Mr.. McGoun, OF
Little York. This is some comfort; but there
Is no use in trying to conceal the fact, that 1861
is a bad year for Democrats.
LEcruRRs.-Mr. James A. Davidson will
lecture on Temperance at the Baptist Church,
on Spring street, Nevada, on Wednesday, Sat-
turday, and Sunday evenings, the llth, l4th
and 18th Of September. The public are earnes-
ly invited to attend. The lectures Will COM
mence at eight O'Clock.
MAu's WAsHoE STAGE LINB.-Mr. Mau
has placed another stage on the route between
Nevada and Virginia City, so as to make the
trip both ways twice week. The stages start
from Nevada every Monday and Thursday
morning, and the return stages leave Virginia
City on the same days.
QUAIL SHooTING.-Several persons have
been fined in this county, since the first OF the
month, for quail shooting. After the fifteenth
Of this month, it will be legal to shoot quailS'
but il appears many had an idea that the game
season commenced on the hrSt.
