ssld. Eureka, and Oakland-haye not been
heard from. The returns received, show very
large increase of the juvenile population of the
county over that reported last year. The total
number ofchildren in the Grass Valley Dis
trict. which, we believe, includes the whole
township, is l,049; the number in Nevada Dis
trict is 745. The Oakland District, which in
cludes that portion of Nevada township south
ofDeer Creek and Gold Run, has not yet been
reported.

days. The business transacted was mostly
connected with the supplemental assessment
roll, of interest only to the parties concerned.

township, for division of Chalk Bluff School
District, was granted. Mr.. Hollenbeck, who
was elected Justice of the Peace for Little York

zens was appointed to fill the vacancy. A con-
tract was made with Thos. L. Hughes for gra-
ding and constructing road, commencing at
the chappara on the ridge road, and intersect-
inc the old Nevada and Grass Valley road near
the Aume-the work to be completed by the

fixed at 1900 per annum, in addition to his fees

wEAKENED.-A volunteer belonging to
Capt. Atchissons company, who has been stop
ping in this place for some days past, on read
ing an article in the Transcript censuring the
appointment of Ferris Forman to the COM
mand Of the Fourth Regiment, and stigmati-
zng him as Secession sympathizer, has con-
cludcd to draw out Of his engagement; alleg-
ing in justification Of his course that he is un-
willing to place himself under the command of
neighbOr may be very patriotic, but it is GER
tainly not calculated to promote the recruiting
interest. II the editor of the Transcript will
take hint from Lncoln's reply to Fargo, he
would be less liable to injure the cause he pre-
tends so zealously to espouse.
