Or THE RIGHT MATERIAL.-One OF the ex-
pressmen, few days since, while travelling
through the county, stopped at the cabin Of an
old miner, who anxiously inquired as TO the
latest news. "Bad enough" replied the vcnder
OF news; "the Secessionists have taken Fort
Pickens and Washington City, and hung Gen.
Scott" With look of unutterable horror, the
miner stepped into his cabin, took down his
rife, and exclaimed: ANYBODY can take my
claim that wants it; but, d-n me, il amt off
for the wars, and I'll have Washington City
back or never return" Our informant assures
us that he would have been as good as his word
had he not learned, to his great qualification,
that he had been the victim OF a "sell."-[ Yreka
