Our County Treasury.

We give below statement OF the doings OF
our late County Treasurer. Mr.. Brown. during
the past year Of his Office, which be has kindly
furnished to Us at our request, for the iniorma-
ton of the public The law provides fo' the
publication of the County Treasurer's quarterly
report By the Board of Supervisors, but they
have never deemed it worth complying with,
and consequently all the information Of the
doings of this important Office remain hidden
from the public eye, except when the officer
furnishes statement to an enquirins citizen,
who publishes it for the benefit of the people,
who have right BY law, to have it officially

Domestic Secession.

There IS meeting to be held to-day at
Chico, for the purpose Of organizing plan to
divide the county; not, however, with any
hope of accomplishing the object the present
session Of the Legislature. To say the least Of
this secession movement, we predict that it Is
unwise and premature in the present condition
of affairs, both national and domestic. 4 d.
vision will result in increased taxation to sup
port a seperate set of officers and to pay of q
heavy part of the present debt of the county,
including the Railroad Bonds and the Nation
al War taxes. If the people wish TO secede
+ from Butte to form new county on the other
side Of the river they will start off in their ex-
istence with burdensome debt that will retard
their progress and increase their taxes If,
however, they wish to form a new connection
with some of our present neighbors-either
/ Colusa or Tehama-it may be prudent to con-
suit with them about the matter of accepting
a portion Of our Indebtedness, for We opine
that no more slices will be cut from our county
without cost to those who accept the slice and
take upon themselves the necessity of paying
part OF our debt. This county has already
been cut up and sliced off by our neighbors
and, in most instances, without taking part
of our debt; but no more of this will be done
without we are amply compensated for the tax
paying property thus cut off Hereafter, the
appropriations of our soil and property to their
own use, will have to assume fair proportion
of our debt and liability upon the 100000
Railroad bonds, part of which have already
been issued. But We hope, that when the tax
paying people on the other side of the river
come to canvass this matter over, that they
may be able to see that no good effects can
come TO them from an independent existence un-
der the present financial pressure of the county
and of the country.
1t is very bad time TO make new counties
and assume new burdens our whole State is
under the heaviest pressure it has ever been
called upon TO bear, and heavy burdens enough
will be thrown upon our people, without ma
king, voluntarily, any more. Let the prime
movers in this division matter think well Of this
matter, and especially the taxpayers, before
they act. We do not know the complaints of
those who wish to secede from U.s. but they had
better bear the evils which they have, than to
fly to others that they know not of.
When we learn the action of the present
meeting, we will present further views and rea-
sons in regard to this matter if the project is
to be seriously entertained by the people of our
county upon the Chico side of the river We
have serious suspicious about the plan, anyhow,
and, financially, it is not feasible, even stroke
like Tom MONEYS, for the flood sufferers,
would not save those people on the other side
from pecuniary distress.

THE LEGISLATURES. - The model comfort
seeking, money-spending legislature, after vir-
tualy resolving themselves into a body of
excursionists at the peoples expense, have
brought up in San Francisco and are now en-
joying the pleasures and hospitalities of the
Bay City. Nearly month has elapsed since
the organization at Sacramento, and nothing
worthy of notice has been accomplished, bene-
fetal to the people at large. For this we can
see no reasonable excuse, as there was no i'm
pediment to a speedy organization and imme-
diate attention to the legitimate business of
the session. But, instead of proceeding with
that celerity and promptness which the inter-
ests of community and the condition of the
treasury demanded, they sacrificed all to their
own selfish demands for comfort, disregarded
expense, delayed necessary legislation and en-
tailed upon the people long, and from pres
ent indications, proftcss session-if not an
illegal one.
Although the adjournment is accomplished
and its results for good or evil are yet to be
known, we cannot refrain from chasing it as an
act Of gross injustice, unnecessary, in fact, sell
fish in purpose, accomplished without adequate
reasons and subversive of the interests and
wishes of the people of the State.

scoundrel, candidate for fireman in the sui
phuric regions, stole lot of wood from the
harm we wish him is, that his hands and arms
from the ends of his fingers to his shoulders
were burnt to blister while building fire
the blisters filed with the ashes; the smoke
perpetually blinded him and penetrated his
lungs the Goals rolled into his boots, and, in
an agony of torture, he set down upon the
redhot stove, installing it for STOOL

Coin WEArFEE--Anong the many freaks
OF nature, this Winter, We have to record an
unusually Geld spell Of weather. and. indeed
probably the coldest ever known in the valley.
During the fore part Of the week, the ground
was frozen 50 solid that loaded wagons made
no impression, save creating dust, which was
blown about, almost as in Summer. Fires and
warm clothing were in demand and we heard
various threats OF removing 10 Cariboo or some
other ,ngrn country.
The weekly Butte record., 1862-02-01

ExrENsIvE.-The late snow storm, from all
accounts, extended from one extreme of the
Sacramento Valley to the other in about equa
proportions, though possibly little more Sc
we're to the northward, as We are informed that
at Chico, depth of five inches was attained
while below US as far as Sacramento City
about three inches, the depth here was the
average. Whether the storm reached Sar
Francisco or not, we have not learned
The weekly Butte record., 1862-02-01

Snow SroRM.-Another snow storm, supe-
rior to the first, is added to the list of eccen.
tricities of the storm king. After several days
of clear and cold weather, the thermometer
standing, most of the time, at and below the
freezing point. About u clock, on Tuesday
night violent snow storm set in, which. bv
morning, covered the ground an inch in depth.
1t continued showing during "Wednesday, but
melted as fast as it fell but Thursday morning
dawned upon us with some three inches of
snow covering the ground. OF course, advan-
tage was taken of the ocsasion. for sleirhinr.
upon rudely constructed puugs," and sleigh
bells were, for the first time, heard merriIv
ginglins through the stress of Oroville-
Crowds gathered about the street corners and
upon convenient awnings. and lucky was the
passeT-by who escaped lively shower of snow
balls. Windows. lamps. etc. suffered to some
extent. The Celestials only ventured to run
the gauntlet when compelled by urgent busi.
ness. All these pleasures were but t-ansien,
as the warm sun of Thursday morning drove
the stranger from our streets.
The weekly Butte record., 1862-02-01

FIRE l-On Monday last, about noon, during
the high wind from the north, Mr.. Brooks res
idence was discovered to be on fire about the
stove pipe, where it came through the roof
1t had gained quite headway, and five min
utes more would have put all that part of the
town in ashes. Its timely discovery, and the
energy of some of the neighbors, with plenty
of water, extinguished the fire, after considera-
bly, wetting the furniture of the room, but do,
ing no very material damage Onr people
cannot be too careful about their stovepipes
Examine them frequently, and don't let them
get near the wood work.

DISBURSEMENTS.

MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT. - We regret to
learn, says the Marysville Express, of Tuesday,
that Hattie Emma Harkey, a little daughter
of VIM. P. Harkey, who resides about two
miles from this city, met with fatal accident,
in the following manner: On Saturday last
the mother of the child was engaged in scrub
biug, and had placed tub of boiling water
upon the floor, near which stood bucket OF
water, to which the little girl repaired to OBJ
tain drink, after which she proceeded few
steps and fell into the hot water. She fingered
along in great agony until u o'clock yester-
day, when death relieved her of her sulierings.
The Sierra Democrat says: Snow slides
are now of daily occurrence. With heavy
fall, and rain soaking the ground under it, the
snow lets go the earth and rushes in great ava
lanches over whatever is in its way. On the
North Fork, between town and Rattlesnake
Canon no less than dozen slides have occur
red. We expect soon to learn of another and
destructive slide at the Buttes.
The weekly Butte record., 1862-02-01

WEATHER.-Y Yesterday was one Of the finest
days of the season, although somewhat cold in
the shade. The snow, except in places little
exposed to the sun, disappeared rapidly A
few more such days and our streets will again
be dry, and the roads leading from the town
will be in good travelling condition. and our
village assume the active appearance of former
times

Look Our FoR THIEvss.-Petty thieviuc
has become 50 general of late, that on. citizens
should be on the alert for the rascals and avoid
leaving anything that can be easily removed
IN an exposed condition. Almost nightly, some
depTedations are committed upon wash.tubs.
clothes-lines, wood-pilss etc, aud with little
vigilance the perpetrators can be detected and
brought to justice
The weekly Butte record., 1862-02-01

CulNA New IEAR.-The Chinese have been
in their glory for the past few days, celebrating
their New Year, and. apparently, having a
good time generally. The report of innumera-
bic fire crackers, mingled with the Internal
sounding yah, yah, could be heard all
times Of day ard night. They undoubtedly
derive enjoyment from this unearthly din and
confusion ; We don't.

RATHER CooG~-Some dweller in darkness,
probably desiring more light, drove wagon
to the Office of Jas. f. Caine & Co., q few
nights since, and helped himself to case of
window-sash, which were left upon the porch.
As the ground was frozen, the wagon could
not be tracked, and Mr. Thief escaped detec-
tion. 4 more appropriate opening for him to
look through could be furnished by Mr.. Mid

PERsoSAL.-George Ii. Crossette, the editor
Of the RECORD, who has been long absent
from his post, but not silent in its columns
returned from the Atlantic States on the
Sonora, and dropped in upon US suddenly on
last Thursday evening, looking as hearty as
ever, and ragged enough to coerce tie institu-
tion, mount the tripod, and WELD the pen edi-
torial in triumph over our conquered heads.
We welcome him as we know hundreds Of
others will who have known him long and well.
Mr. Crossette comes direct from Washington
City, the great military camp of the nation.
NoS-ARRIvAL.-Tbe Defiance, which left
Marysville for this place on Saturday last,
heavily loaded with freight, has not yet ar
rived. She is detained some ten miles below
here, OF account of sand bar, which has
formed in the river at that point, over which
she cannot pass with her present load. 1t is
reported that the bar is rapidly washing away,
and her arrival here is hourly expected.

MARYsvIILLE.-The Appeal, in commenting
upon an article in oar last issue, upon the sub
joct of the people of Marysville blocking up
our navigation of Feather river by their bridge,
suggests that we should not be in hurry to
knock them into cooked hat, Just yet, as the
railroad will settle them soon enough. That
dodge won't do Mr.. Appeal, you have blocked
the railroad too, and will allow no permanent
track to be laid to the navigation of our river
But as usual, require the tariff and toll to be
paid from your steamboat landing to the depot,
upon freight and passengers, for about a mile
that is the same old game. However, look to
your altars, well, for the town of Eliza affords
iecilities in wet times, that are beginning to be
felt in your city. Your papers are full ofteams
and trains loading at your merchant houses
for the mountains but We think some of your
heavy houses must have branches at Eliza,
from the appearance of things there the other
day. The boats cannot get within a mile of
your city, and the passengess are taxed two
and a-half dollars 10 get row up the rolling
Yuba. You will admitthat teams nor trains
cannot get down the road to the landing at the
mouth of the Yuba, on Feather river, Just
below your blockading bridge In your
Thursdays issue, you say it is in bad fix, y
and shocking condition and that freight
&c, has to be boated up to your city in small
craft, at great expense. Eliza appears to be
easy of access to the hills, and heavy freights
land there that a short time ago came to Ma
rysvile.
