TIE SHOWER OF FLESH. n. E.
Whiteside, Of Yuba County, CAL, re-
ceived the following account Of the flesh
shower in the vicinity Of Los Angeles
from a brother in law, which fully and
satisfactorily explains the matter: You
ask in relation to the shower Of " flesh
and blood" 1t really took placs-as re-
presented, over a place of one or two
acres at Los Nitos, near a house at which
were collected q number of persons
on the Sabbath for the purpose Of bury
ing a child. The CONSERVATION of the
neighborhood was great, and OF
course their excited imagination sup.
piled q very large version of the matter.
I examined a specimen of flesh brought
to me, with the microscope, and found
it to be the muscular fibre Of some
young animal. But this astonishing
occurrence 10 susceptible OF a very un.
romantic solution. We have in this
region an abundance of the bird known
as the Cal. Condor-one Of the largest
birds that flies. When fully gorged
II is said to contain 20 to 40 pounds of
flesh. Their fight is very high-some
thousands of feet-and when disturbed
after one of tho %fcasts, they are fire.
~quently under the necessity Of disgorg-
ing-say ten to fifteen pounds-which
with their rapidity of flight and their
great altitude would cover a large space
by the time it reached the ground.
These occurrences have been witnessed
a number of times. This relieves the
occurrence entirely Of the supernatural.

A "PLArSaR."-one of these char
acters, once quite numerous, but now
rarely seen on our streets, the out-and-
out border man, passed through the
city yeIterday, presenting a eomical
spectacle to those unaccustomed to the
genuine border %rufian. He was dressed
in the rude fashion Of the Plains, with
a broad brim hat, buck.skin bresches,
etc., and had long hair, an unshorn
face, and from his heels protruded a
pair of huge Mexican spurs. His tout
ensemble can be appreciated when we
say he was very toll, and was mounted
on a little rabbit Of q mule, from which
his gauut legs dangled like those Of a
j%umping-jack, with his feet nearly
touching tho ground. He was from the

WHITE PISs.-The Shermantown cor
respondent Of the s. F. Daily Times
writes under date Of September 9Th, as
follows:
THE EXODUS CoNTrNuEs.-The departures
from this region still exceed the arrivals
largely, and will continue to do 20 until win
ter is fairly upon US. It is the natural eE
feet Of the reaction after the " fever" Of last
winter and spring. Besides this, many who
are now departing expect to return in the
spring, having good mines here, which they
do not wish to work in the severe season now
approaching. Those who 20 from here with
a" big disgust on their minds, have the
same disgust with every mining district where
work must be performed to develop the mines.
These belong to that class Of miners which
the Mining and Scientific Press designates
as " the loafng and selling out class. They
have succeeded in loa6ng away the whole
summer, without doing any more than the
two days work on their claims required by
the easy mining laws, so that no one else can
have the privilege OF working them after they
are abandoned until the expiration ola whole
wear. To such dogs in the manager" are
we largely indebted for the present stagua-
ton in mining operations. Let them go from
us, for they will never return, and we shall
eventually be better of without them. Other
and more Industrious and persevering men
will take their places in the spring, and we
shall then see lively times again N White

The FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT. = We
have received q very interesting aud in-
s,ructiye letter from our Secretary OF
State, Hon. Chauncey n. Nosewarc, on
the subject Of the passage OF tho Fiji
teenth Amendment BY our last Lcgisla-
ture, and other matter bearing thereon.
Tho Secretary Of State says the Legis-
la.ure did not instruct him to advise
the authorities ut Washington Of the
action Of the Legislature, nor has the
Governor called for any certified copy
of the ratification resolution for that
purpose. The certified action Of the
Legislature, however, is in the Statutes
Of our State, and copies thereof have
been forwarded to Washington to the
different Departments of Government,
which the Secretary deems sufieien:
notice Of the action of the Legislature.
The Elko Independtnt has not its legal
points well taken-if the Secretary OF
State is correct in his conclusions.
, When Casserly wrote about Nevada not
being enrolled for the Fifteenth Amend
ment, our Statutes had not reached
Washington, but they are there noe.
Tho letter Of Mr.. Noteware will appear
in the News to-morrow-as it is logical
and truthful.

THE New York Commercial Advertiser
confes,es to having entertained the
thought that no other spot upon the face
of this beautiful earth could produce
such a crop of v%ari-colored noses as that
which, under the healthy stimulus OF
excise laws and other promotive insti-
buttons, is grown in the city of New
York. Now, however, it is willing to
yield the palm to Asiatic Georgia,
where one may find noses Of every shape
and every color, the smallest of which
he has only to press between his fingers
to obtain q pint of the wine Of Kakstie.
Boston, if we may believe the anti-pro.
hibition papers, is in a fair way to rival
the Georgian noses in quantity and
color, if not in quality. "There is
more rum sold in that city than ever
is tho universal cry Of the friends OF
grog.
