LOCAL MATTERS.

THAT DEcIsIoN.-In the commun ication Of
Mr.. Hupp reference is made to decision Of
the District Judge, published in the Democrat
month or two ago. In justice to Judge Nc
Farland. we will state that the decision was pub
lsbed without his knowledge. 1t was handed
nc bv Mr.. CARRIER, one Of the counsel in the
ease who stated he thought it would be well
for the local papers to give to the community
The decisions of our local Courts. The decis-
ion we presume was not written with any view
of publication, and as no pains had been taken
70 punctuate the document, the errors referred
n may have been occasioned by the compositor
not understanding the language used.
DISTRICT CoURT-March 29th.-Wm. Luke
re. Creditors. Order for final decree of discharge
from debts and liabilities.
McNecly VS.. California Stage Co.-Motion
for change of venue denied.
Raynor VS.. Kidd ct al, and Calnan VS.. Kidd
ct etal.-Demurrer of defendant Kidd overruled.
In the attachment cases against Hagadorn
& Bowley, the parties were given until Monday
April 7th, to file briefs and answers.
Friday April 4th was set for hearing motions
ond demurrers, to which day the Court ad-
journed.
QUARTZ Discovery Messrs. Sheath &
CLAY, miners, working on Gold Flat, discover
ed quartz lead, one day last week, which bids
fair to prove valuable. The decomposed quartz
prospects well, and gold is visible in every
niece of solid rock taken from the ledge. 1t is
the intention of the owners to have some OF the
rock crushed in mill, with the view of testing
it, and If it turns out as rich as there is reason
to believe, they will make arrangements for
working the ledge, as a quartz mill is now be-
ing erected within convenient distance.
Snow STORM "A severe snow storm set in
late last night, and by seven o'clock this morn
ing had fallen to the depth of five or six inches.
At times to-day, the snow has been coming
down thick and fast, melting about as fast as
it fell, and the day has been dismal one for
the time of year. Since seven o'clock this
morning, the thermometer has stood at about
six degrees above the freezing point.

township, was brought to Nevada yesterday
examined by board of physicians, proeounc-
ed insane, and was started for the Asylum
to-day in charge of an officer. He was perfect

HADEAs CoRPUs.-Chas II. Hays was COM
mitted to Jail yesterday, by Justice Holt, Of
Bridgeport, for refusing to give up diamond
ring, on proceeding subsequent to execution.
He was brought before Judge Mcfarland in the
evening and discharged, on the ground that the
Justice exceeded his powers.
PAY GRAvEL.-A company of miners have
been engaged for some time in running tun-
mel into the hill, near the Glenbrook Race
Course. On Thursday afternoon they struck
the gravel which prospects fayorably.

George Henry, from Fishery Bay, with pr.
Hall, OF the new Sir John Franklin exploration
on board, has arrived. He reports that in con-
sequence of the loss of some of his craft, he is
unable to prosecute his mission to the extent
Of his desire. The expedition has probably dc
termined the fate Of two boats Of frankllns ex-
petition, who perished in endearOring to return.
Hall has also learned the fate Of five men cap
tured from the Free Fisher on the first voyage,
and identified the exact place Of their landing.
Hall explored 900 miles of the coast, lnclu-
ding the so-csllcd Free Fishers Straits, which
proves to be deep bay. The George Henry
was about to start for the States on October 10,
1861, but was prevented BY ice until the 9th.C)

CARE FROM MIR. BYRNE.

EDITOR NEVADA DEMOCRAT:-
John Ivanhoe Caldwell, Of candidatorial no
toriety, having set himself up as "teacher in
Israel" it Is proper that the Democratic people
of this county should be made acquainted with
the motive that prompts his course in the prem
ises.
In the first place the statement made by him
that bolted the Union Democratic State ticket
last year, is a falsehOod.
The assertion that did not support the Union
Democratic County ticket is also false.
| DID NOT support Mr.. Caldwell for the po.
sition to which he was nominated District
Judge) for the reason that believed him totally
incompetent and untitled for the position. Al.
though a strong party-man, l acknowledge nc
obedience to party rules sufficient to compel
me to support. for high judicial position, a
man who has neither the natural ability nor the
acquired learning requisite in such an Office as
District Judge. Being driven to choice be.
tween such man as ]. l. Caldwell and gentle.
men of tried competence and admitted ability
am proud to say that l cast my vote for Dis
trict Judge in accordance with the judgment
which felt free to exercise in reference to ju.
dicial candidates. Personal enmity to me-
arising out Of this circumstance, is the secret
Of Mr.. Caldwell's card.
The conclusion arrived at by this "sound
constitutional la Vyer," that my nomination OF
that Of any candidate upon the ticket was the
result of any understanding or cOlusion with
the Breckenridge party, is, like the remainder
Of his manifesto, false in all respects, and is,
furthermore, too ridiculous to require any
especial refutatiOn at my hands.
My fealty to the Union and to the patriotic
principles Of the Union Democratic party, has
never heretofore been questioned. Any state.
ment affecting my loyalty to the Government,
the Union and the Constitution Of my country,
take this occasion to pronounce an unquali-
fed falsehood, come from what source it may.
II Mr.. Caldwell's design is to draw me into a
newspaper controversy, can inform him that
he has failed in his object, for shall take no
notice of any further communication from
him. JAS. X, BYRNE.

INDIAN DISTURBANCES IN MINNESOTA
Dispatches from St. Paul, Minnesota, give
come additional particulars Of the Indian
outbreak in that State. II is estimated that
not less than Eve hundred persons, inclu'
ding many women and children, have been
murdered. Fort Ridgely, which is held by
a email force, at last accounts, was sur.
rounded by 1000 Indians aud Col. Sibley,
with twelve hundred mounted men, bad
etarted for its relief. A message from the
commanding officer at Fort Ridgely, dated
August 2lst, says; I'VE can hold this pO'
Rition but little longer, unless reinforced.
We fear being attacked almost hourly. Our
little band is becoming exhausted aud deci-
mated" II was stated that Col. Sibley
would reach The fort on the Gath. 1t is ru.
mored that the outbreak Of the savages was
instigatei by secession traders.
