MAMMOTH QUARTZ Co.-Mr. Nolan. super
intendent of this company, arrived from Sac
ramento on Wednesday last, and in company
with the trustees paid visit to the mine and
agreed upon location for the mill, which
is now on the way from San Francisco
Stockholders have promptly paid their assess
ments, and everything looks promising for
the company getting into active operations
in crushing rock as soon as the machinery
can be placed In position. The location of
the mill site is convenient to wood and water,
and only distant from the ledge about quar-
ter of mile. 1t is expected that the mill
will be in operation by the 1st of June

UNION STATE CoNvENTIoN.-The Union
Convention at Sacramento, on the 24th ult,
was we'll attended and was unanimous in its
desire for the reelection of Mr. Lincoln to
the Presidency. The session was one of in
terest, in that it expressed tie opinion of the
Union men of the State upon one or two points
which politicians will doubtless heed for tn 2
future. 1t was distinctly made manifest that
the notion of preferred honor because of for
mer political Affiliations, was not to be tolera.
ted: that no particular old party owned the
Union organization of this State, and were
not to be allowed to monopolize all the hon
ors of loyalty because of former afEnities.
Neither were the former political associates
of those who had been placed in high places
by the UniJn party. to arrrogate to themselves
the right to rule because of such old political
sympathles. These men were made to dis
tiuctly understand that while all Unionsts
were willing and anxious to approve and CON-
mend all who faithfully did their duty in pub
lie life. they were not to be forced into men
ial position because they would not bow down
and worship individuals. We are glad this
whole matter was ventilated in the Conven
ton, and believe it will have good effect in
the coming canvass, as all disorganizers and
ambitious ueople vi 4 now know Just where
they stand, and what is their status in the
Union Party-mlioR in more senses than one.

DEARTu OF NEws-The late heavy storms
have rendered the overland telegraph out #
order for the past few days, and to add to the
general dearth, our exchanges are as barren
of news as the plains in the lower counties
were of grass before the late rains. No po
litical questions now agtate the public mind,
and the Government gives SO much satisfac
ton in its conduct of the war, since our ar.
mics have been placed under she-control of
Gen. Grant, that not even the Copperheads
hereabouts have any objections to make, OF
if they make any. it is deep down in their
throats, for fear of making some political
mistake that will iniure them in the next
Presidential campaign.

The STATE PRrsos ExEurE.-The Alta

The STATE Prison ENEUTE.-The Alta
gives the following account of the emeute at
San Quentin on Saturday last:
At noon 81 convicts had been turned out
into the brick yard TO load brick on the yes
sci at the wharf, but nothing occurred 10 ere
ate suspicion of plot to escape unHf i've
minu. e 10 2P NJ, when the sentinel at Post
No. saw men scaling the southern wall at
two different points and instantly gave the
alarm. his three companions and himself all
firing upon them with their muskets. As the
formoSt man scaled the walls. the conyicts
in tie brick yard gave loud shout, and dart
ed toward Post No. t. Twenty-three of the
conyiets from the inside got over the wall be
fore the guards on the wall could reach a
point where they could use their arms efFec-
tuallv, and, by firing into the crowd preven-
the escape OF any more. These Joined the
brick ward gang. and the whole force $50
stroral closed on the guard at Post No t.
with the evident purpose of capturing the
cannon for future operations. The assailants
attacked with desperate energy, hurling
bricks, throwing stones from slings, and
sh10.inr arrows from bows with which four
of the ennvicts had armed. themselves. The
quart fought with determination worthy
of all praise, in spite Of the fearful odds, un-
I'll two Of them were oyerpowered and hurl-
ed over the emIankment. when the other
two got inside the guard house and closed the
door, having spiked the cannon, which they
had not time to fire again. In this contest
one ofthe convicts named Augustine Truhio,
prisoner for life. closed on on of the guard
with Slung shot, or club, and fought like a
tiger Until the guard succeeded in getting his
musket 70 his shoulder, when he received
bullet through the heart, and the term of his
sentence ended in an instant. The conviets,
as soon as they had disposed Of the guard at
this post. rushed for the cannon, but to their
diSappointment found it already spiked and
useless. Before they Lad time to take coun-
sci and determine what next to do, the cannon
from the northern side of the prison had been
brought to bear bv the other guards, and
opened on them with volIeys of grapeshot.
while the mounted guard, and q number Of
other guards on foot, charged down on them
ard commenced firing. Seeing that the day
was lost, and that no hope of escape was left.
the cuEIvicts now broke in body and ran at
the ron OF their speed for the lower gate of
the prison. which they entered, and the re-
beiliun was over. The moment that the con-
victs abandoned their attempt to escape, and
ran for the gate of the prison, the guard eeas-
ed firing. from desire to avoid unnecessary
slaughter, as the lesson already given was
sufficiently salutary one.

QvICK WoRK-f Yesterday it was stated in
and around the Capitol that General John
A Sutter, having been reduced to poverty
was about TO apply to Congress for relief, and
it was thought pity that his petition should
pass the doors of the California Legislature.
though, ON the last day of its session,
on it's way to Washington. The papers
were therefore stopped and in the daytime
Mr. Martin attempted to get the matter
before the Assembly. 1t was, though with
regret, ruled out of order. In the even
ing Mr. Buckley introduced in the Senate q
bill for the relief of the good old gentleman
1t appropriates SIS, 900, payable to him at
the rate of $3.50 per month. 1t was rushed
through without opposition, time being taken
only to eulogize the beneficiary. The bill
was transmitted to the Assembly and was
there opposed bv Mr. Boulware of Suffer,
Smith of Nevada and McCollium of San Fran
cisco, on the ground that the appropriation
was too much 1t was advocated by several
gentlemen, among whom was Speaker Sears
who made fine though short speech. Itwas
finally passed. taken to the Governor and
signed by him by half past ten o'clock.
Though the precedent is far from being good
one it is presumed that there are few who
will object to the donation. The speeches in
its favor were received with heavy applause
both by those upon the floor and by the crowded
lobby and gallery, and the remarks against
it with unmistakable misses.

AccIDENT.-On Wednesday last, while
Henry Bordman, of Texas Springs, was ac.
compauying a party of friends to the Sacra-
mento river, who were on their way to the
northern mines, he became spirited jolly, and
fell from loaded wagon weighing some nine
thousand pounds. He fell upon his face, and
two wheels of the wagon passed over his
shoulders close to the neck, and also over his
right wrist. His comrades procured medical
aid and took the unfortunate man to Mullen's S
ranch, where, we learn, he is fast recovering,
"a badly confused face. a broken nose, and
a slight fracture in one of the bones of the
wrist being the principal injuries. Hank,
who is very solid, well built, muscular
man. seems quite surprised to know that he
has been injured by wagon running over
him. He says he stood the first wheel well
enough: then his luck turned, for just as the
last wheel poised squarely on his back, and
his face well inserted into the hard graveliy
road, the wagon stopped about halfa min
ute, and he could not hollow to the boys and
tell them to start the wagon.

CHIcKAMAUGA.-At the anniversary of the
battle of Pea Ridge, March 10th, the army
officers in St Louis had dinner. In speak
ing of his march through Tennessee, General
Rosecrans said
:. The Army of the Cumberland crossed the
Alps of Tennessee, but did not find the river
Pc, or the fertile plains of Italy to biyouac
upon. Previous to the battle of Chckamauga
he telegraphed to General Halleck to know
whether any portion of the rebel army of Vir-
ginia had been sent southwa d., and General
Halleck replied that no troops of Lees army
had been sent in that direction except few
regiments for Charleston (Cries of shame !
shame from the oficers.( In consequence
of this false information. the Army of the
Cumberland encountered superior numbers !;
for Longstreet, from Lees army, was there
with over twenty thousand men, and the
whole force of the enemy was at least ninety
three thousand. while the Union forces were
not more than ffty-fve thousand. Still the
Army of the Cumberland held its ground,
and the position taken is still maintained"

GRIM Con- IN Observation-Disclosures in the
doctrine of . total depravity" have been fur
nshed with still another argument to strength
en- their belle f, and the ears of mo al CON-
munity have again been shocked by the rela-
ton OF another story of marital infidelity and
social vice. The gossips have distorted and
my ystified the facts. and believing that lain
recital Of them will have the effect to lessen
this species of crime, from tie fear OF news
paper exposure, we herewith make it: Six
months ago. or thereabouts, a man named
Malcolm. engineer on the Chicago and North
western Railway, led to the hymenial sltar
a young and exceedingly beautiful woman.
whom he loved as only one who is believed
to be pure and spotless can be loved. Moth
inc has occurred since the marriage, until
few days ago, to mar the felicity of the low
ing couple. unless, indeed. it was the una
voidable absence of the husband on his stated
duties. He. trusting man, never dreamed
that the young and lovely woman whom he
called wife, could even listen to the voice Of
the temptor, and her image invested with
garments ofangel purity. was ever before him
on his perilous jjou ney. If. in his capacity
of engineer his eye was more watchful. and
the safety of the train greater certainty, it
was that he might live to love and be loved /;
and if the impatient hand pressed the throt-
tle-valve with an increased nervousness upon
the homeward flight. it was because love heck
oned him and he yielded unconcious obedi-
ence to its promptings. One evening. less
than week ago, a friend whispered a warn
ing in his ear, and startled him with the fact
that his wife had passed along the street but
a few minutes previously. in company with
Horace Burton commission merchant, whose
name had figured in the Recorder Court and
in the newspaper as one of the principals in
an adultery suit-a criminal prosecution
Summoning to his aid two City Detectives,
the wretched husband tracked the woman,
whom he still believed to be innocent to a
room in one of the upper stories of the brick
block on the northwest corner of Dearborn
and Randolph streets The detectives res
trained the impatience of the husband for a
few minutes. and listened. Satisfied at length
that matters were ripe for detection, the door
was burst open so suddenly that the surprise
was as complete as it was overwhelming. The
evidence of his wife's shame was conclusive
Divested of her garments, the guilty woman
shared the couch of Burton. while her sister,
handsome, well-dressed, and intelligent
young woman, sat by the bed side, an inter
ested spectator of the scene. There was con-
fusion. despair. sobs. prayers for forgiveness,
and frantic appeals for mercy, mingled with
the groans of the outraged husband, who pa
ced the room and wildly tore his hair. He
attempted no violence, however, towards
either his wife or the destroyer of his happi-
ness, and the latter walks the earth unscafh-
ed and undeterred from the commission of
similer crimes Cor. S. f. Call.
