PosTPoNED. The trial of Thomas Burke,
indicted for the murder of Wright, which was
set for trial yesterday, was postponed for the
term. An affidavit was filed by the prisoners
counsel stating that one Blair. his principal
witness. was absent, and expressing the belief
that he was kept out of the way by parties in
terested in the prosecution. Blair is the per-
son who is reported to have escaped from the
State Prison with Burke, and the chances are
that he will never be seen in this county again.
The District Attorney, however, consented to
have the trial postponed, and it was according
put off until the April term.
WAR PAINTING.-We noticed, yesterday,
at Withington's paint shop, foot of Broad st.,
very fine painting, executed by Mr.. Aud, an
artist of this place. 1t is a representation Of
the fight between the frigate St. Lawrence
and the priyateer Petrel, in which the latter
was speedily sunk, carrying down many of her
crew. The design was partially taken from
a cut in pictorial, but the artist has greatly
improved upon the original, and given us upon
canvass a vivid representation of a naval battle.
The IsREALITIsH WAR.-The "war against
the Isrealites" having been terminated by the
Intervention of the legal authorities, and the
blockade being raised, Mr.. Jacob Rosenthal
will leave for the Bay City on Sunday morning
next, for the purpose of freplenishing his some
what meagre stock of dry goods. The step is
rendered necessary, owing to the ravages and
devastatiOns Of the late war.
HABEAs CoRPUs.-A writ of habeas corpus
was issued to day, by Judge Belden, in the case
of James Mooney, lately committed to Jail, IN
default of bonds to keep the peace, for threat
sning to kill somebody. The case will be in
yestigated at four O'Clock this afternoon.
BUSINESS CHANGE.-The co-partnership be-
tween Messrs. Mayors & Coe, at Nevada and
Grass Valley, as will be seen by their notice,
has been dissolved. Mr.. Coe will settle up the
business of the store in Nevada, and Mr.. May
ers that at Grass Vslley.
For SALE-Chris. Flaugher offers himself
and bridge for sale-full particulars of which
will be found in his advertisement in another
column. This is undoubtedly the best piece Of
property in the county we allude to the
bridge.
CITY TAX SALE.-On Saturday next, the
City Marshal will proceed to sell all assessed
property in the city upon which the taxes are
due and unpaid. The delinquent list will be
found on the fourth page of this paper.
THE WEATHER, for the past few days has
been delightful-neither too warm nor too cold.
The sun is rapidly drying up the mud, and un-
less we should have another storm, the roads
will soon be in fine condition.
MAY-DAY BALL.-The German citizens of
Nevada are making preparations to give a grand
ball, at Temperance Hall, on the evening OF
May lst
