MYSTERIOUS DBATH.-A correspondent OF
the Sacramento Union, writing from Aurora,
in this State, Says:
On Wednesday last, 4 man living about
sixteen miles from Bridgeport, on the Sonora
road, late in the afternoon saw q team stand
ing on the road some distance above his
house. About dark he yet saw it standing
in the same position, supposing some team
s,er had camped for the night. In the morn
ing it was yet in the same position, when he
concluded after breakfast to go and see who
and what was doing. Soon after an Indian
passing told him a dead mar was there. Up
on going to the place he found a six mule
or horse team belonging to David Mcouade,
Of Sonora, and loaded with machinery for a
girls, mill in Owens Valley. and the driver
and owner cold and dead, From appearances
his foot had caught in some way, throwing 1t
under the front wheel, which had passed over
his ankle, leaving a bad mark, but breaking
no bones. The hind wheel had passed up
the side Of his body and over his neck, dislo;
eating it badly, which must have produced
instant death. The ~neighbors had the body
properly buried, and the particulars OF the
accident will probably never DO known.

taking it for granted that every man who
is elected upon the Union ticket is a sup
porter of the Congressional policy a reso-
luton BY which the Constitutional Amend
men, is to receive endorsement will go
through both Houses with the sanction OF
a more than three.fourths majority. We
hope such an act may be the frst work
performed after the organization OF the
two Houses. The Senatorial fight looks
favorable to Nye. According to our
reckoning he has = most decided majority;
