Various reasons are assigned for the failure
TO collect the above. In some instances the
property was assessed double, in other cases to
widows, who are exempted to the amount of
$1,000; some are returned as too poor to sue;
and in some cases neither the person nor pro-
nerty assessed could be found. 1t is believed
that about one half of the amount returned as
delinquent on the roll Of 1861, will be collected
eventually, and the Board of Equalization will
use their discretion in striking from the delin-
quent list where property has been assessed
double, and when they are satisfied the taxes
cannot be collected. Since the delinquent lists
have been turned over to Mr.. GAYLORD, the pre-
sent District Attorney, he has collected and
paid over to the County Treasurer $7O00-of
which S., ,462 was collected on the taxes for
1861. He has not yet made his report on the
delinquent lists Of 1855, SO, and go.
Losr PASSING ERs.-We have obtained
some additional particulars relative to the pas
sengers lost by the burning of the Golden Gate,
who were from Nevada county. Mr.. E. H.
Fulton, who formerly resided at Moore's Fiat,
was lost with three Of his children, and one of
the children was saved. Mr.. A. Bremner, whose
name is reported among the lost, was also from
Moores Flat. He was partner in the Illi-
nois Claims, but lately sold out his interest
for $4,000, and started for the East with his
money. He was intending when he left, to
carry about 81 200 ON his person, and get a
check for the remainder. Mr.. Ramse whose
name in the list of lost is enormously spelled
Ramsey" carried about $500 or 81 900 in his
belt. Mrs. S. Babcock and infant, also from
Moore's Flat, are among the lost. The infant
which she was taking East, was the child Of
her brOther-in-aw, Mr.. o. d. Babcock, the
Constable of Eureka township. 1t is possible
some of these parties may have been on the
boat containing twenty-five persons, who miss
ed the harbor, but it was thought would be
saved.
EQUALIzATToN.-The County Supervisors
will meet on Monday next, the 1lth inst, as a
Board of Equalization. The Board will be in
session the most OF the time during next week,
and will probably hold one or two adjourned
meetings during the month. They are requir-
cd by the statute to complete their business,
and turn the Assessment Roll over to the Aud
itor, before the first Monday in September.
ARRAIGNED.-Thomas Birbeck, indicted by
the late special Grand Jury, for the murder of
VIM. Etchel, at Orleans Flat, was arraigned
before the District Court this forenoon, and the
indictment read. By consent of counsel, the
defendant was given until Friday next at ten
o'clock, A. NJ. to plead to the indictment. Mr..
Hawley has been employed as counsel for the
defense.
SUBSCRIPTION MONEY LosT.-Among the
letters in the lost mail by the Golden Gate, was
one containing a list of subscribers to the Sci
entihc American, and thirty dollars in coin, in
payment of the subscription. As the letter was
lost, the papers Of course will not come unless
