A TERRIBLE sITuATIoN.-The "Calaveras
Chronicle" of January 10Th, relates the
following Notwithstanding G. Aizel was
on a prospecting tour last week, in the
neighborhood of Glrland's ranch, on Old
Woman s Gulch, he observed a tunnel, and,
approaching it, heard a noise as of miners
working within, and proceeded to pay them
a visit. When he had ventured through the
dense darkness one hundred and fifty feet, all
at once his feet gave away and he was pre-
cIpitated to the bottom OF a shaft, thirty
FIVE feet deep, breaking two of his ribs and
otherwise injuring him. On recovering his
senses be found he had companion; large
California skunk had net with like misfor-
tune. apparently some ten days before. His
skunkship had become desperate, through
hunger, thirst and confinement, and attacked
him with all the ferocity of tiger, bit him
severely on the face and hands, he being tco
feeble TO protect himself. In this condition
he remained some thirty hours, when, luck
ily. two miners passing that way, heard his
faint cries, and rescued him from bis peril
Gus situation, made doubly so from the fact
that this tunnel is situated in very lonely,
obscure place, no one scarcely ever passing,
except Garland, in the spring time, viewing
bis fence. Atzel says he thought his case a
hopeless one at first, but after praying two
hours he took courage, and commenced
hallooing and fighting the skunk. which ne
kept up to the moment of his rescue.

he was amusing himself by showing OFT, or

floating past the pier. lie was thus engaged
when bis pole slipped on the ice and the lit
tlo fellow was precIritated from the pier into
the river. The current being very swift ana
the p .er being but short distance above the
dam he was almost instantly swept over 1t
