PETTY THIEvEs.-People should advise
their gallinacious bipeds to roost high, now
a-days, and watch their clothes lines with
the eyes of an Argus. Inroads are being
nightly made upon the peaceful henroosts of
our quiet citizens, and clothes lines are
ruthlessly stripped of their burdens, even the
sacredness of night-gowns not being able to
preserve them from the sacrilegious hands of
the shameless despoilers. What they can
possibly want such articles of domestic fur
niture for, is a mystery to us perhaps for
the associations connected with them-in
their infancy. Our citizens should keep a
close watch for the providers. A dose of shot
would probably cure the epicurean klepto-
MANAGES.

SENTENcED.-On Thursday last John Fer
guson and Jesus Miranda, convicted of the
murder of B. R. C. johnson, year ago last
September, were sentenced to be hanged OH
Friday, February 2Sth, 1868, by Hon. S. w.
Brockway, Judge of the District Court. AS
the circumstances connected with the murder
together with the particulars of the arrests
Of the guilty parties, are still fresh IN the
memories of our readers, their publication is
unnecessary. Ferguson is a negro and
Miranda Mexican. No doubt exists in
the minds of the public regarding their guilt
or the Justice of the sentence. The murder
was unprovoked and cold blooded, and its
perpetrators should expiate their crime upon
the gallows. The execution is to take place
between the hours of 10 o'clock A. NJ, and
o'clock, p. NJ. The scaffold will probably
be erected in the jail-yard in Mokelumne
Hill.

that wondrous and general practice which
daily attend at his Office. The great Ricord.

TUESDAY evening next, the blind violinists,
Messrs. Smith & Walker, will give their
second soiree dansante at Leger's Hall.
Dancing, even in those communities where
there are other methods of amusement and
recreation is regarded as the principal source
of social enjoyment. In the mountain
towns, where there are no theatres, operas.
lyceums or lectures, dancing parties and
balls are about the only means afforded for
social intercourse and innocent recreation.
Messrs. Smith s Walker are first-rate mu-
sicians, gentlemen of exemplary habits, and
their parties will be conducted with proper
regard to good order and decorum. Their
unfortunate condition should excite the SYM
pathy of all, and their praiseworthy attempts
in their dependent situation, to earn an hon.
est livelihood, should meet with encourage
ment and assistance. Their terms are dol
lar an evening. We sincerely hope our
citizens will literally patronize their next
sOiree.

ESSEN E OF JAMAICA GINGER

EoSEN Il CE JAMAlCA G4WGEk !!
This valuable preparation containing in a
highly concentrated form all the properties
of the Jamaica Ginger. has become one of the
most popular domestic remedies for all dis
eases of the stomach and digestive organs.
As a tonic it will be found invaluable to
all persons recovering from debility whether
produced by fever or otherwise, for whilst
it imparts to the system all the glow and
vigor that can be produced by wine or BRAN
dy, it is entirely free from the reactionary eff
fects that follow the use of spirits of any kind.
1t is also an excellent remedy for females
who suffer from difficult menstruation. giving
almost immediate relief to the spasms that SO
frequently accompany that period.
1t gives immediate relief to Nausea, caused
by riding in a railroad car. or by sea-sickness
or other causes.
1t is also valuable as an external applica-
tion for Govt. Rheumatism. Neuralgia, etc.

FATAL AccIDENT.-On Saturday night
last, resident of Chez Chez Flat, named
Cary, fell into a shaft while going from Ell
Dorado TO his cabin, and was killed. The
circumstances of the sad occurrence, as near
as we have been able to learn are IS fol-
lows; The evening was very dark, the trail
narrow, and shafts on either side. Mr.. Cary
was on horseback. In the utter darkness
the horse wandered from the trail. 1t is
supposed that the first admonition Mr.. Cary
had of his dangerous position was the sight
of a yawning abyss directly in his path, and
that by suddenly checking his horse he
backed into another shaft close by. The
shaft in which both rider and horse fell, was
sixteen feet in depth. with four feet of water
at the bottom Not making his appearance
as usual, search was instituted for him on
Monday, and his body recovered. Mr.. Cary
was repeatedly urged to remain in Ell Dorado
by his friends, on the night of his death, but
would not yield to their entreaties.
The programme of the ball to be given By
the Clampsus Vitus, on the 2lst of Feb
ruary, is now published in full. 1t affords
us much pleasure to be able to announce
that the Committee of Arrangements has
succeeded in securing the services of those
tavorite musicians, Messrs. Church, Jones &
LAY. for the occasion. This fact, of itself,
places temptation before the dancing por-
tion of the community too potent to be with
stood. The noble object to which the pro-
ceeds of the ball are to be donated-the pub
lie school-wlll undoubtedly secure the
attendance of all our citizens who feel an
interest in promoting the cause of education.
We assure those who wish to attend from
abroad, that every necessary arrangement to
their comfort and accommodation W II be
perfected. Nothing will be left undone to
render the ball model of elegance, good
order and sociability.
SOMEBODY, not having the fear of God OF
man before his eyes, has invaded the sane
tity of our sanctum and feloniously abstract
ed therefrom our gold pen. 1t was present
to us and highly priced in consequence OF
the pleasant recollections associated with 1t.
The person who would steal from an editor
would rob churchyard or take the crusts
from blind mans mouth he would pur-
loin a a contribution box and garrote a de-
crepit beggar for a penny. Curses light
upon him. May his arm be palsied and his
hand wither when the pens point touches
the ink, and after eking out miserable ex-
istence, finally die of leprosy in pen-hog
