THE YANKEE NATION In four years past
the Yankee shave managed to run up nation.
al debt of three thousand millions of dollars,
feat they think beats any other nation and
hence perfectly satisfactory. They don't
stop here, though, but in order to avoid the
necessity of putting stamps on everything
bought and sold on every paper gwen or
received; the giving in of income and pay
ing taxes thereon, etc., they now propose to
pay off the annoying little thing even as they
would brush off Ay, and they are going to
do it. Already the work has begun by
modest subscriptions of from S5oo,OOO down
to $4,000.

Fourth of July.

The Committee to whom the manner of
our celebration has been left, are making
such arrangements as we doubt not, will en-.
sure perfect satisfaction to themselves and
everybody else.
By one of the committee we are advised
that procession will form in town, at, or if
practicable little before II o'clock, and
march to the parade grounds, situated a lit
tie to the eastward of Chinatown, where
large pavilion will be built-large enough
for the accommodation of everybody-55 by 80
feet. Next in order will be the Grafton, then
the reading of the Declaration of Independ-
ence. music by the band; also vocal music
by an organization of ladies and gentlemen
who are now practicing patriotic songs for
the occasion, so that they may be able to do
honor to themselves and give pleasure to their
hearers. Another and very beautiful feature
of the occasion, will be the representation of
the States composing the Government, by
thirty-six of Shasta's young misses.
A cold collation. will be provided at the
pavilion for all, free of charge.
1t is supposed that these ceremonies will
consume all the daylight, and when over, the
company will adjourn to town to witness the
fire. works which will be set off in the high
grounds is the rear of Excelsior or Armory
Hall. They will be visible from almost any
point on Main street.
After the fireworks display, there will be
music and dancing at Armory Hall free for
all to enjoy themselves, except in the mere
matter of refreshments. Mr.. Charles An
derson will have ready for all who wish tc
partake, a good supper. convenient to the
Hall, for the small sum of 81 90 per head.
The Committee would have provided
against this charge, even, but could not, be
cause of the heavy outlay for fireworks, and
the building of the large pavilion.
The arrangements are such that, we have
reason to believe Shasta, town and county will
long be proud of ' the day we celebrate" /"
and the way we done it.

Caught--Lo. the Poor Indian that Robbed
Schoeh's Express Last Week.

1t seems that when Schoch stopped his
team and went back to look for his brake
block, an Indian lay hidden in the chappa'
ral-not for the purpose of robbing, but to
save his own hair-his kind not being popu-
lar over on that side the river. The absence
of the driver offered the temptation and the
opportunity. Lo was tempted-he Tell, ana
Schoch's express box, containing twenty hVe
ounces of dust, q derringer pistol, and many
letters, one of which contained a draft for
come $500, fell into his hands. Careful
watching revealed the fact that Lo was sell.
ing guld dust in quantities so large as
to excite suspicion. Lo was finally suspected
by others of his people, who, at the instlga
ton of the Whites succeeded in capturing
buck who had seven ounces on him, and
which he claimed to have won from Lo in
gambling with him. He described Lo, and
Schoch. with some four or FIVE friends, went
in pursuit, met the fellow on lonely trail,
let him come close up, when Barbour told
him to stop. Lo raised his hands, saw Bar
bour's cleaning pistol, made leap that
landed him in gulch some fifteen feet
down, from whence he made quarter-horse
time, pursued by pistol bullets and men.
The men failed to connect. Out of ten
shots only one took effect, passing through
the wrist Indians took the wounded mans
trail, found him, and brought in nine and a
half ounces of dust. Thursday, the wound
ed Lo was captured at Churntown. He
says he lost the Derringer when they were
firing on him. The letters and other express
matter were found near the scene of the
robbery. So far, there has been recovered
sixteen and a-half ounces of the twenty five
lost.
I" 1t never rains but pours," is an old say

Thursday his stage startled for Copper City
under the guidance of friend who was as

fortunes. When a few miles from town, the
stage capsized over a precipice, a distance of
forty feet carrying the horses with it, smash.
ing the stage top and body very generally.
We are not advised of the particulars. The
conductor and his one passenger were able
to repair damages so as to admit of a contin-
uance of the journey-and they journeyed.
