FRIGHIFuL ACCIDENT AND loss or LIFE.-Abou
three O'Clock yesterday morning as the Californi,
Stage Co.'S coach from Downieville to this city
was ascending the Goodyear Hill, about mile
and half the other side of the Mountain House
in making very short turn on The narrowest
portion of the road, the ground underneath the
hind wheel gave away, and the wheel commenced
setting down the embaukment. The driver,
Miles Nesmith, Immediately whipped up his team.
and for few moments the stage was poised on
the brink of the precipice. The ground crumb-
ling rapidly however the stage and contents, to-
Cether with the horses, were precipiiatcd down
the frightiul abyss. There were on the outside
ofth1 coach two passengers (whites) and the dr
yer; on the inside six Cinnamon. One of the
passengers (our nformant) found himself lodged
in some bushes, about fifty yards down the hill
and uuhurt. The driver lodged considerably
farther down, and was badly injured The other
outside passenger, attempting to jump from the
coach, became enMngled in the reins, fell among
the horses and rolled with them about 500 Yards,
nearly TO the bottom of the hill. lie was badly
bruised and received internal injuries which will
very likely prove fatal.
Two of the Cinnamon were killed outright. a
third was fatally injured, and the others were
more or less bru sed and mangled. Three of
the horses were dead when they. reached the bot
tom. The stage was in innumerabe fragments
Green Co.'S stage came along a few minutes
after the accident, and brought the wounded to
the Mountain House. Our informant came
through to Marysvillc.

No law should be allowed to remain on the
Statute book that cannot be enforced, nor
should 5ne be passed which does not receive
the sanction of the people. The passage OF
obnoxious laws. and their non-enforcement
have Il very unhappy effect on the communl,
ty. They teach the people to disregard aud
disrespect the laws. The ignoring OF one
law is a step toward disregarding another,
and thus society is gradually brought to
chafe under restraints and anarchy isthreat :
ened. No matter how well and good law
may be. if it does not coincide with the
wishes of the people, it is folly to pass It, be-
cause in this country the people are the mas
ters and they will not low to the VIII OF
their rulers unless their own wishes are con-
sulted.-EEpreSs.

So said the California Express yesterday.
and then proceeded to copy about a column
of the bloviating report made by that stern
warrior, Price, to claiborne +. Jackson,
Governor of Missouri concerning the battle
of Lexington. We congratulate the readers
of the Express upon the handsome liberality
of that paper in furnishing them with so
much of the report of Price. The people OF
this State are patient and law abiding citi-
zens or they would not endure such goading
insults as are constantly heaped upon them
by the Secession press We are glad it is So
Let us do all things in order. We have en-.
tire confidence in the Legislature recently
elected. We believe they will enact law
this winter. prohibiting the publication Of
articles in favor of the rebellion. We hope
the time is not far distant when no paper
will have an existence in this State, which
grieves at being unable to publish, in full,
the Civilizations of thrice denounced traitors
like Price, over the slaughter of loyal citi-
zens of the United States. 1t is consumma-
ton devoutly to be wished, but must be at
tanned in legitimate and lawful manner.

OFFICIAL Mar OF YUBA CouNTY.-We have
received from Nelson W escoatt, ESQ, County
Surveyor. a copy of his new map of Yuba
county,-just compiled from his surveys
which has been approved by the Board Of
Supervisors and declared by them to be the
official map of the county. We have not
had time, as yet, to give this map a careful
examination, but see enough in it, at glance,
to satisfy US that it is very correct, and
consequently valuable, document. Giving,
as it does, the boundaries of the different
townships, the name and precise location Of
each public house, and every point of any i'm.
portance in the county, and table of dis

has long been felt. We have no doubt it will

conquer them or they will conquer you. If
they take Washington, do you thiuk they
will stop? No. They will take Baltimore;
and if they take Baltimore they will want
Philadelphia, and having Philadelphia. they
will march to New York, until as their Sec
retary of War said in Montgomery, they will
dictate the terms of their compromise within

it is their intention to give you military
dictatorship The same bayonets which de-
stroy the Government will dictate the next.
Instead ofa Constitution, they will give YOU
swords and bayonets. We need not mince
or hesitate in this matter To speak in com
mon parlance you must either whip them or
they will whip you. They are many of
them, insolent, proud braggarts, like spoiled

The steamer Antelope brought to the city,
yesterday morning, Company A, Second
Regiment of California Cavalry, under COM
mand Of Captain L. A. Rowe. This company,
numbering eighty-fve men, was raised and
organized by the Captain, in Shasta and
Siskiyou counties. They went down to San
Francisco several weeks ago, being at the
time without horses. They are now mounted
on California or half-breed horses, and make
highly creditable appearance. They left
the levee at about seven o'clock in the morn
ing, passing through several of our principal
streets. The company proceeded to the north
side of the American river, where it will re-
main encamped for day or two. 1t is ex-
pected that they will be joined this morning
by company Ii of the same regiment, under
command of Captain McLane, and proceed
together when prepared to start, to Fort
Churchill by way of Placeryille.
We understand that the regiment of Col.
Kellogg is fast increasing its numbers, and by

The Burlesque school of the Drama.

Mr. Planche was the pioneef of the Bur
/ lesque school, and his sole purpose was to
| devote holiday audiences (ehiehy composed
of bows and girls. home for the Christmas and
Easter vacations) with appropriate dramatic
versions of pretty fairy tales His compost
tions were rather eXtravaganzas than bur-
lesques, and depended for their success more
upon the ramantic interest of the story and
the wit of the dialogue than upon their satire
Mr. Planche may claim the merritt merit 1t
be-of having first introduced the pun INTO
these compositions; and it must lie allowed
that he punned with discretion; which Is
certainly more than we can say of his youn-
ger successors in the craft of iokemaking
When Mr.. Planche was at the height OF his
fame as n burlesque writer, these pieces were
brought out only at holiday time, in some
cases as substitute for the pantomime,
which, in certain quarters, was beginning to
| be voted low and vulgar 1t sulliced then to
tell the dramatic story in sprinkling rhymes,
slightly sprinkled with puns and illusions to
the events of the day. Ballet, glittering
fairy scenery. parodies set to popular airs
and red and blue fires, did the rest. The
satire contained in these pieces was of a very
harmless kind, and rarely aimed at any game
higher than the Thames Tunnel o: the Lord
Mayors show.
OF late years, however, places of this class
have asserted much more extended sway
They are now played in season and out cf
season, and at one If not two theatres they
hold the stage all the year round, and consti-
tute the chief attraction. The young school
of burlesque writer's follow method partcu
larly their own, though, of course, they are
largely indebted to the traditions of their
immediate predecessors. The chief elements
which enter into the composition of these
pieces are pretty scenery, negro melodies,
"break down" dances, and outrageous puns
1t is also a necessary condition to their sue
cess that one or more saucy actresses with
good legs, should be employed in their per-
formance. The music and the scenery go for
much, the puns go for more, but the comic
dance goes for most OF all. The literature
which enters into the composition of the
most successful pieces of this descrition is not
by any means to be despised as an intelectu-
al effort. The young men who can SO indus
triously tOrtue the English language into
such strange and startling meanings through
thousand lines of rhyme evidently possess
an amount of talent and application which.
if properly directed, might be of real service
to letters; or, if not to letters, to some indus
trious pursuit
Tom Hood who was considered the prince
of punsters in his day could have had no
conception ofthe height to which pun n n
had attained Tor, perhaps, We ought the depth
to which punning has fallen) in our time A
pun a day would, perhaps have been the ex-
tent of the indulgence which Hood would
have allowed himself; but these burlesque
writers fire them off in volleys, and glory in
startling the English language from its pro-
priety.- CoralW Magazine.
