DEATH OF DR.. BATEs.-Dr. Henry Bates,
formerly State Treasurer of this State, and
once representative in the State Assembly
from this county, died at San Francisco, OF
consumption, on the 18th inst. DR.. Bates
came to California, from Wooster, Mass, in
1851. He fixed his residence at this place,
where he resided until about a year ago. In
1854 he was elected to the State Legislature.
In 1856 he was chosen State Treasurer. His
unfortunate connection with that Office is re-
mcmbered with regret by the citizens OF
Shasta, among whom it is not belief that
DR.. Bates was a dishonest man. He fell
among evil counsellors, and permitted him.
self to be cajolcd into becoming a party to a
grievous wrong. How he come to do this is
exp!ainab'e by the fact that he was man Of
no frmness of character whatever. The
gains. nor any part thereof, of the affair in
which his name was so prominent, never en-
ured to the subject of this notice. Much did
he err. and grievously was he punished for
a wrong into which he was duped to become
participant. He is at rest now. Let us
remember of him only his ingenious, kindly
disposition. and his chldlike gentleness Of
heart. and ignorance of the ways and guiles Of
