ISsANrTr.-On Sunday last German
took passage in the stage at Tehama for
Marysvile. He acted so strangely that the
only other passenger, lady, took seat
outside with the driver. When within
three miles of Marysville, the German CALI
ed out to the driver, Mr.. Castor, who turn

ing pistol thrust in bis face, he drew his
head back, and almost at the same instant
the pistol was discharged, the powder burn.
Ing Mr.. GastOn's face considerably. The
man then jumped out Of the stage, aed TO

insisted that the stage folks intended to rob

DURING the sitting of the Virginia State
Convention, the Secessionists of Richmond be-
came very indignant at the evidences of the
feeling in favor of the Union. They hauled
down the stars and stripes and ran up secession
flags upon the prominent buildings. Roger A..
Pryor said that if the Western Virginians would
not protect the honor of the Old Dominion, Eas-
tern Virginia must cut loose from them, and
revolutionize the State. Their insults to the
Union delegates were open and disgraceful. Mr..
Carlyle, of Morgan county, recently made a
strong Union speech, and as he was leaving the
Convention, accompanied by two ladies', he was
hissed and groaned at by the crowd. A cor
respondent of the Morgantown (Va.) Gazette
learns that o. Jennings Wise told member of
the Convention few days ago that il this Con-
vention did not pass an ordinance of secession,
it ought to be driven from its hall at the point
of the bayonet.

NEVADA TERRToRY.-The Silver Age,
published at Carson City, in referring to the
boundaries of the new Territory, says:
Our eastern boundaries skirt the Humboldt
mountains, giving us breadth of territory of
about two hundred and fifty miles East and
West, and running from Oregon, on the North,
to New Mexico, on the South, distance of
some four hundred miles; total area Of about
100000 square miles. Our western boundary
by, and with the consent of California, is to be
the summit Of the Sierra Nevadas. To this ar
rangement California should have no objections
and in all probability, on proper representation
being made, by citizens east Of the Sierras, ex-
pressing their wish for the transfer, the present
Legislature would take the necessary steps, so
as to enable the residents of Honey Lake and
Esmeralda to cast their vote the first election,
and elect their fair representation to the AS
sembly. This matter should be attended to at
ence, as there is no time to spare.

EXPEDITION TO THE COLoRADo.-An Ex-
pedition, headed by Walker, the famous trapper
and pioneer, who gave his name to Walkers
Pass, is now forming in San Francisco for the
purpose of exploring the mines of the Colorado
country, and that part of the mountains south
of the Salt Lake road, where gold is known to
exist. They number some twenty-five or thirty
men, and leave about the LIST of May, and fully
expect to do great things. Two years ago it
was currently reported on the Salt Lake road
that the ShoshOnes knew Of gold mines in the
Humboldt and Goshoot mountains, and that
white men had been secretly killed there by
these Indians who had been otherwise friendly
to the whites.

Matters at North BIOomfeld.
NoRrH BLOOMFIELD, April Is, 1861

NORTH BLOOMFIELD, April 10, 1901.
Ed. DEMocRAT.--I noticed an item in this
mornings Transcript, concerning our interest
ing locality, which is little beyond what it
should be, and apt to lead men with but small
means astray. win not undertake to say that
Messrs. Jacobs & Co. did not clean up the
amount stated, viz: 81 ,S07, but it seems strange
to me, having resided here for long time, If
such is the fact, when year ago said company
was sued by the ditch company, and their
ground sold for water bill of 800, alter work.
ing in the same cut with men having the same
advantages as they have.
Now do not want to say anything to dis
courage persons from coming among US, but to
come and take things as they find them, is my
wish, and not to entice them here by false re-
ports.
1t also appears to me, by the above mention
ed item, that the credit is all given to Jacobs &
Co. for the construction of the drain mentioned
therein. Now wish the credit to be given
where the same is due. The dram has been
carried on and constructed by Messrs. G. Ar
mold, Pettitgean & Co., Jacobs & Co. having
nothing to do with it,) and the struggles ac-
corded to Jacobs should by all means be award
ed to the other parties, for they truly have had
struggles, not only pecuniarily, but from the
diversity of public opinion.
l would say, in conclusion, come one, come
all, and do what you can. There is plenty of
room, and as good ground as Jacobs, yet to be
had; but do not come under any false delusion
Of making "pile" right-a-way.

THE PoNY ExPREss.-The prOprietors Of
the Pony Express have given notice that
half ounce letters will hereafter be carried
through for 81 each. The rate heretofore
has been 81 so for letter Of quarter Of
an ounce. With these reduced rates, and
considering that the Southern overland
mail has been suspended, the Pony will
prove q greater convenience and be better
patronized than ever before. The rates as
now fixed win probably continue until the
daily overland mail goes into operation,
which will be about the middle of June
next.

FROM ARIzONA.-The Mesilla Times, of
March 3Oth, states that the U. S. govern
meAt train, lately stolen by bandits, was
taken to Chihuahua and sold to Senior Don
ZOlOaga for $6,OOO-$l. 500 10 bullion, aud
the balance in drafts on chihuahua. Soon
after making the purchase. soldiers arrived
from Fort Buchanan, stating that the train
had been stolen. zOloaga turned the prop
erty over to the U. S. troops, aud succeeded
10 Overtaking the thieves, and recovered
the bullion and drafts.

WEALTH OF GREAT BRTTAIN.-A Parlia-
mentary paper has lately been published
in England, giving much valuable infOrma-
tien relative to the wealth of that country.
From this paper it appears that the present
property wealth of England, Ireland and
Scotland is two thousand million dollars,
and has Increased about one hundred and
twenty-five millions ln the past six years.
In England the increase of taxable prop.
erty in the time mentioned has been one
hundred and twenty millions. in Ireland
about eight millions, while in Scotland there
has been decrease of nearly three mil
lions.

LIHCOLN's POLIcY.--Many contradictory
reports are published relative to the inten-
tions of the Administration in regard to
Fort Plckens. One account says that 400
troops have actually been landed at the
fort; another states that orders have been
sent 10 the men-ofwar lying off Pensacola
TO land reinforcements without delay, while
other statements represent that no change
is to-be made. AS yet we have no evidence
to warrant US in believing that the Admin
istratiOn has adopted any policy at ell in
regard to secession. Possibly the country
may soon be electrified by a brilliant coup
de main, which win set all things right; but
judging from what has been done, the
statesmanship, Of Lincoln and his advisers
will be displayed to the best advantage in
the jndicioas, distribution Of the spoils.

The GOVERNMENT LoAN.-The bids for
the $s,OO0,OOO loan, recently advertised by
Secretary Chase, amounted in the aggre-
gate to $50 100000, and ranged from 90
cents to par--the average being 921 cents.
