RoBBEkY.-One evening last week, as Sam
uel Myers was riding along the hill this side
of Davis ferry, man suddenly stepped into
the road with double barrel shot gun in his
hand, and ordered him to halt. Myers had
scarcely refined up bis horse before two more
armed men approached and ordered him to
hand over his valuables in short order, or
they would give him dose of something
that would be very injurious to his health
Myers, seeing himself corraled, cautiously
unfastened the chain of his watch and tossed
it up the bank, where the robbers failed to
discover it. They, however, compelled him
to hand over his purse, containing over $50,
and then suddenly made off over the hill, as
if they were frightened. A few days after
the robbery of Myers. a house in the same
neighborhood was entered, and several pairs
of blankets and quantity of provisions taken
thcrefrom. Several suspicious looking char
acters have been seen prowlng around in the
vicinity of the Canon House lately, and some
think that building is or has been the tempo
rary rendezvous of the rascals committing
these depredations.

SATURDAY MORNING, APRIL 20, 1867.
State Senator.

Our townsman, Hon. j. N. Chappell, has
announced that he is candidate for the
position of State Senator from the Twenty
sixth Senatorial district, composed Of the
counties of Shasta and Trinity, and the fact
that he has no opponent is evidence that the
people consider his claims well founded.
Mr.. Chappell's experience in legislative mat
ters eminently fits him for the proper dis
charge of the duties of the position he seeks,
and will insure us the superior advantages
always to be derived from having a prompt

upper House Of the State Legislature

blyman from this county, be has shown him.
self to be an efficient and faithful public
servant, and has never lost an opportunity
10 advance the interests of his constituents.
Ills retrenchment or reform measures, reduc-
ing the expenses of carrying on the official
business Of the county, were proceedings by
which we will be greatly benefited. One of
the principal arguments urged by the oppo-
~
passage, was, that competent men would not
consent to hold the Offices at the reduced
salaries prescribed by the Act, and that the
administration of the affairs of the county
would fall into the hands of irresponsible and
unprincipled men. The number and char
acter of the aspirants for these offices effect
ually refutes this objection, and shows 1t to
be without foundation In fact.
So far as Mr. Chappell's loyalty is con-
cerned, it is acknowledged to be above sus-
pician, and that too, is q recommendation
which should 60 long way with the Union
people of the district.
In conclusion, we would commend Mr..
Chappell's claims to the consideration of the
people of Trinity county, and assure them OF
his fitness for the position to which he as

A SUccEss.-The ball given by the ladies
of Shasta for the benefit Of the public schools
of this district, was well attended, and passed
off to the satisfaction of all parties. The sum
of $639 was realized. This speaks well for
the liberality of the people, and exhibits a
ready response in behalf of a worthy object.

praise for the excellent manner in which

CHIcAGo.-Work on the Chicago mine is
progressing quite lively at present, and the
indications are that at least one quartz claim
in the county will be thoroughly prospected
in a very short time. Over twenty men are
now employed on the claim, and two tunnels
are being run into the hill for the purpose of
tapping the main ledge at depth of several
hundred feet below the surface groupings.
The shaft is now down IS feet, and very rich
ore is being taken from it. One solid piece
of mineral, weighing 450 pounds, has been
taken from this lode, and will probably be
sent below as specimen of Shasta county
mineral. Eight tuns of first class silver ore
from the main shaft are now assorted and
ready for shipment to San Francisco.

Mrs. Jefferson Davis has been favored with

Amendments to the state Constitution.
Section 3 of Article G reads as follows:

DeCtlOn y Oh Article y Feaus as 1UII0WS.
SEC s. The justices of the Sutgeme
Court shall be elected by the qualified cleo
tors of the State at the general election pro
vided by law for the election of Governor,
members of the Legislature, and other State
officers. The Justices shall hold their Offices
for tie term of ten years from the first dav
of January next after their election, except
in case Justice be elected to fill vacancy
caused by the death, resignation, or inability
to act of any one of the Justices of the Su-
preme Court, in which case the Justice
selected shall hold his office during the bal
ance of the unexpired term proUided, that
the Justices Of the Supreme Court in Office
when this amendment takes effect shall hold
Office for the full term for which they were
severally elected, and thereafter one Justice
shall 90 out of office and his successor be
elected every two years. and the Justice
having the shortest term shall be the Chief
Justice.
Section declares that the District Judges
shall be elected at the same time, and also
provides that those in Office shall hold for the
full term of six years.
Section says the County Judges shall be
elected al. the same time, and shall hold their
offices for the term of four years from the first
day of January next after their election, and
does not provide that those in office shall
hold for four years; but the same section
does provide that the County and Probate
Judges of the city and county of San Fran
cisco shall hold their Offices fer the full term
of four years.
Now, what was the intent of the Legsla-
ture? Did it intend, as some contend, that
all the Judges of the different Courts should
90 out of Office on the first Of January, 1869 :?
or did it only intend that the County Judges,
except in San Francisco, should hold but two
years? Or is it, as some think, that the
proviso as to County Judges was in the orig
inaI amendment as offered, and was left out
in copying by some of the clerks of the Leg
islature?
As there are questions Of vital importance
to the State in this matter of amendment to
the Constitution, we would like to hear from
those who should know about the intent Of
the Legislature.
