RAscALs ABoUT.-The Road Overseer of Dut-
tons district has placed in our hands a copy of
several bogus road receipts found in possession
of Cinnamon in his district when he called on
them for their tax. We give copy @ Trinity
Journal Print. Venire. State of California

Township, (kay X K) in and for Trinity county.
He Kiss, Chinaman" 1t is plain case of aban-
doned viliany, and we will give the price of a
hundred venires for the detection of the rascals,
little something to ascertain the name of the
Justice of the Peace who has allowed rascals to
procure the aforesaid blanks from their Offices.
The Cinnamon say the receipts were furnished
by two very tall men-one very large, with san
dy whiskers and rings in his ears. We have no
particular sympathy with Cinnamon, but as a
general thing they pay their taxes of all kinds
quite as punctualy as white men, but we do con-
slider Chinaman better than the lazy loafer who
obtains his living by such unlawful strategy as
that above narrated.
Coon NEWS, IF TRUE.-Mr Pouleur who is
now carrying the Express between Big Flat and
this place, informs that six men, believed to
be deserters from the battalion of g Mountain
GERS now operating against the Indians In
Humboldt county, arrived at Big Flat last Satur-
day night, and left before daylight. They re-
ported that the military authorities had con-
cuded a treaty with the Ioopa and Klamath In
dams, and that they content to be removed
to some distant reservation. At last accounts
they were endeavoring to effect treaty with the
Redwood tribes. We give the report as we re-
ceiyed it it may not be worth much
WIRES Dowx-We have been unable to pro-
IS cure an Eastern dispatch since last Saturday.
The heavy winds of ne early part OF the week
made sad havoc along the line between the
Tower House and Trinity Center. Uprooted
trees have flllen across the wire, and gentle
man whom we nave always considered good au-
thority tells us that in some instances the poles
have been blown completely out of the ground
and carried a distance of one hundred yards
This is entirely possible, as there are some steep
places along the route.

SANITARY BALL.-Capt. Kelton informs us that
the Douglas City Rifles propose giving Ball as
soon as the new uniforms arrive. They have no
desire to interfere with the Ball proposed to be
given for the same purpose in Weavervllle, but
many persons in that vicinity and the southern
part of the county would attend at Douglas City
who could not possibly come to Weavervilie, and
the Captain thinks a considerable sum may be
realized from such. We wish the Rifles every
success in their laudable undertaking.
