meet payments falling due by the delinquencies
of members. This fund is held by the

double the value Of the money so loaned.

| Tho remaining two-thirds after paying the
expenses of the Association, shall be invested
| in Real Estate in the city of New York, or in
bond and mortgage on property in the city OF
New York, the interest of which shall 20 TO pay
| the current expenses of the Association. II q

the previsO that the expenses of burial shall be

not to exceed one hundred dollars.

TERRIBLE Snow SLIDE.-A terrible snow
slide occurred at the Independent Mill, near
Downieville, on the 4th inst, at 10 O'Clock
A. N. Seventeen men were covered up, five
of whom were killed. The other twelve cs.
capped without any serious injuries-one man
having leg broken being the worst. The
Alta, speaking of the accident, says
The snow slide which occurred on the
Downieyile Butte about ten o'clock on the
morning OF the 4th inst, carrying away part
of the Independent quartz mill, and killing
five men, was not the first one that occurred
in that neighborhood. The mill is erected on
the steep slopes of the mountain, on the
southwestern side, about 1900 feet above its
base, and a greater distance below its summit.
The bill side is nearly bare of trees and high
points of rock, and thus there are no obsta
ces to prevent avalanches from getting a
start. After they obtain headway they make
short work of forests. On the 18th February,
1859, six different avalanches occurred on the
Downieville Butte two quartz mills and one
dwelling were swept away, and one man was
killed and three injured. The slide which
proved fatal came at ten O'Clock at night,
without the slightest warning. noise or shock
until the moment when the house was struck.
An examination of the course of these ava.
lanches showed that they followed slight
depressons or water courses on the hill side.
and as the mines were too rich for abandon
ment the houses and mills were rebuilt. but
in positions supposed TO be out of the path of
snow slides. The avalanche Of the 4th proves
that there was an error in that respect. The
Independence mine yields $780, 900 or more
annually, and adjoins the Refs claim on the
same lode. The mill has "A stamps.

INTERESTING SITUATIoN.-The Solant
Press of March 4th relates the following:


A gay Lothario from Vallejo came up on
Saturdays boat, and proceeded at once to
the house of resident of Fairfield. Coming
up in front of the building, he commenced an
alluring whistle, and was soon met by little
boy whom he warmly greeted and to whom
be donated quarter to run and buy candy
with. He then approached the gate of the
residence, and was there met BY the object Of
bis affections, with whom he had protracted
conversation. The husband was shingling
the roof of an adjacent house, and, unobserv-
ed, witnessed the whole proceeding. Think
ing matters had gone about far enough, he
quietly left his work, crawled down through
the building. and entered the rear of bis house
and procured a pistol, well loaded, with which
ne suddenly and unexpcctly appeared at the
1oor 91 OF the house in presence Of the parties.
without word, he fred on the disturber of
= ms peace, who instantly decamped. minus his
nat, yet uninjured. Tie husband marched
n's "lfe back into the house, and when last
seen ne was .patrolling the streets with a
Ioaaea rlfie, determined to put an end to his

ACCEPTED THE AMENDMENT-A few days
ago the Assembly passed resolutions denun.
ciatory of Congress and endorsing the course
of the President, and requested the Governor
to forward the same, by telegraph. to the
F" Alderman of my native village" Seeing
that the ball was opened, the Senate followed
suit and passed resolutions endorsing the
action of Congress, and requested the
Governor to telegraph the same to the
President Of the U. s. Senate The Governor
returned the latter resolutions to the Senate,
with the statement that he declined to forward
them to the U. S. Senate. on the ground that
that body was preparing to resolve itself into
a Court Of impeachment, and that nothing
calculated tn prejudice Senator's against the
accused should be laid before them. Upon
reception of this message of the Governor,
Senator Miner, OF, Solano, arose and moved
that the Senate accept the objections of the
Governor as being well taken, and that his
Excellency be requested to forward the
resolutions to Colfax, Speaker of the House

tions have been forwarded has not been
