He was working in the claim of Paulsen & Co.,
opposite Douglas City, when the bank, which is
fully one hundred feet high commenced sliding.
He was standing in the ditch when it started,
and before he could escape it caught and lifted

fore his companions could rescue him. Aside
from few bruises, he was uninjured, although

PoLIrIcAL.-It is gratifying to notice that the
Union men of the county are moving in accord
ance with the suggestions heretofore made by the
JOURNAL. Within the past two weeks we have
received a number of letters from remote parts
of the county asking for information relative to
the civil organization known q Freedom s
Defenders, !" and the Veteran Soldiers Society,
e Grand Army of the Republic" This informa-
ton will be furnished in good time
To begin early is the best assurance of sue
cess. The most important and exciting political
contest in the nations history is about to be I'M
dertaken. The American people will soon be
called upon to decide whether they will perpet-
uate the sacred rights for which our ancestors
freely shed their blood, or whether they will al
low the inestimable brthright to be sacrificed
without a struggle 4; whether they will or will
not retain, by final, gallant effort the rich
fruits of victory won with the lives of u million
heroic spirits, and garnered by the patriotism of
the whole nation. Upon the determination of
these questions hangs the future of the Ameri-
can Government.
If we would enjoy happy country during our
own generation and transmit to those who may
follow the rich heritage of free government, we
must be willing to make an effort worthy the OBJ
ject to be attained The Union party of Trinity
has a glorious record that record should IN
spire increased energy in the coming struggle.

M,x,xe-we hear most flattering accounts

Mrs1se.-We hear most aattering accounts
from the various mining districts of the county,
and although the long, tedious winter delayed
the commencement of mining operations nearly
two months, the lost time will be regained, for
water will hold out much longer than in ordina-
ry seasons, and generally speaking more can be
accomplished in one long summer day, at mining,
than in two of the winter season. Never since
the settlement of this county by Americans did
high mountains hold such covering of snow on
May day as now. These are the fountains from
which the miner receives the needed element for
successfully prosecuting his avocation
Several new mining enterprises commenced
last year, now completed, will add largely to the
gold yield of the present season. The ditch of
Taylor Frey, from Grass Valley creek, extend
ed mile further, will cover a range of diggings
known to be rich. The claims in Laing Gulch,
one mile below Lowden's, have heretofore yield
ed many handsome nugget for trifing work
done with small supply of water. Old miners
say that the whole country from there to Indian
creek would pay we'll with liberal supply of
water. The ditch will be in operation soon, and
furnishes water the entire year
We learn from Henry C. Wilt, who has located
claim under the McGillivray ditch, that the
prospects in that new mining locality are very
cheering Wilt says he has not in all his min
ing experience found section where the out
ward evidences of rich gold deposits were stron-
ger. A large number of claims have been loca-
ted, and in month hence we expect to hear a
pood renort from Parks Bar.
If reports are true Squire Musser is doing a
good business in the old Wood claim, two miles
above Lewiston. Of late he has been picking up
Jumps weighing from one to fifteen ounces. The
location of the claim and the nature of the gold
found leads TO the belief that there are extensive
and rich quartz deposits in the neighborhood.
The Weaver Creek Fluming Company has
commenced operations. The work of laying the
fume will commence soon the water falls
sufficiently to permit it. This is one of the
most extensive mining undertakings ever inau-
gurated in the county.

To All who Wish to Register.
From the N. O. Pi5ayune. I

EFrom the n O. Pieayune.]
We desire to say to all who wish to reg
lister under the constitution of 1865 and the
act of the General Assembly, creating a
Board of Registration, that this board and
the supervisors of registration under them,
have no power to PROFOUND to them any
questions whatever, except whether they
can or cannot take one OF the other of the
oaths. set forth iii section S of that act,
which we snhjoin, and they have no right
to go behind any certificate of naturaliza-
ton, which is genuine to inquire whether
the court had a regular session, but must
presume it to be such when certified to un-
derseal. Et!i }g @
They have no right to question the vo-
ter as to the trntbfulness of his averment,
il he SO swears, that he was not " register
ed enemy. nor Confederate States officer
one year, nor newspaper editor or pub
Usher of rebellious articles, nor guerrilla
leader, nor preacher. nor signer of TN
ordinance of secession.
They lave no right, il he has done either
one of these things, to go behind his certifi-
cate that he has recanted his adhesion to
the rebellion, and ask him other and FUR
ther questions, nor, if having lost sllch
certificate, lie makes oath to its having
been granted and lost, to question him fur
Their on the subject. a3 - sH
All that they have right to do is to ask
which oath you can take, and If you might
have been disqualified under article 90, to
ask if you have OF have had the certificate
of recantation, and if you have lost it
whether you desire to make oath to that
effect. Beyond this they eau ask you no
questions as to it. .ehi ~ 'e
: What the statute gives them power to
do is :. to receive other evidence" showing
that you are not entitled to rcgister-not
to cross examine you as to it,. They arc
authorized to examine on oath Hanyi wit.
ness to prove any fact pertinent TO the
right Of any one to register, and shall de-
eide from the evidence whether the party
so applying is entitled to register = but
they cannot make you a witness to elicit
any fact upon which they might claim to
SO cODSlItG luC ldW its W tAClttttc ,yOl.
This we say as to the removal of disgual-
ifications by recantation, and as to such
as result from age, resi-
dence, defective naturalization OF its all
sence, etc. & asss sn
But you may claim to vote under the
proviso to art 80 of the constitution, be-
cause you favored the execution of the
D..
laws of reconstruction prior to LIST Janua-
ry, 1868, and aided loyal Inen to restore
Louisiana to the Union. Iii that case you
have only to take the test oath in section
9Th as given below, added to the one first
set forth, and you must he registered upon
IT,
AS to this, they not only cannot. ask you
any other questions, or add additional
