PRIMARY ELEcTIoN.-At the Republican,
or Union Administration, primary election,
held on Saturday, twenty-four delegates were
elected who are understood to be favorable to
the nomination Of Birdseye for Senator. About
666 votes were.polled altogether, of which the
Birdseye delegates received on an average, 407,
add the Knox delegates 254. Mr.. B. is an old
line Republican, but was supported by nearly
all the Union Democrats, who have accepted
the invitation of the Republican Committee to
90 in and form Union party. They went
in much more numerOusly than the Republ-
can wire-workers expected, or bargained for,
and so far as this town is concerned the rad-
calls find themselves in the minority. The vote
of Grass Valley, it is understood, will be cast
for Mr.. Murdock for Senator, but we have no
knowledge as to the preferences of the other
delegates for that position. 1t is the general
impression that Birdseye has the inside track.
DIED OF SMALL Pox.-The small pox patient
who was brought down from Omega on Thurs
day last, died on Saturday afternoon. We
have not been able to learn his surname. His
first name was Charles, but he vas not able to
pronounce his surname so as to be understood.
He was placed in a cabin, on the opposite side
ofDeer creek, just below town, where there
was as little danger of communicating the dis
ease as any place that could have been selected.
The body was taken off during Sunday night
and buried, and early the next morning the
cabin was set on fire and burned.
MUSEUM OF WONDERs.-Dexter's great
Museum of Wonders" is announced to exhib-
