TALK OF A VIGILANCE CoMMrrTEE.-Some
excitement prevailed in the city and adjacent
mines, for day or two after the shooting Of
James Pinney by Thomas Fitz Hue, and
many were in favor of organizing a vigilance

Of law. Better counsSls prevailed, however,
and it was considered BSst to let the law take

walk to our house, which was but little

afternoon, and when tea time came would

And sigh to think our love could not have won
