NEW SToRE.-An advertisement for Jordan I
Co.'s new store, opposite l. T. Resse'S ware

issue. 1t will appear in our next. In the meana
time the public are informed that they have on

DELINQUENT TAxEs. - For the month endina
March 3lst, 1869, Sheriff NcAuliff collected and
paid over to the couuty Treasurer 90 aecoual
of delinquent taxes the sum of el9ss %. OF
this amount $ll56 70 was In legal tenders, and
y $sl2 IA in county orders. Our people begin to
understand the advantage Of having Thoroughly
ly competent business man in the Sheriff. oeice
MASIFEsTs.-It would be . great sonveniencs
to our merchants and business men il on the
arrival of the steamers at WallulA the Agent
would forward copies of their " manifesu " To
this city. As it is, business men have no means
of knowing when their goods arrive al the land
ing-a matter which At times is of great in por.
tance. We trust that the Agent will give heed
to this suggestion.
Ma. A. W. ROBINSON advertises, this week his
new stock of painters materials, wall paper,
moulding, windows, sash glass and furniture.
We have taken a look At his stock, aud can
cheerfully Vouch :or the correctaess Of bis claim
chat it is the largest and most varied assortment
of goods of the kind ever offered to the people
of this place. Read his advertisement.
NFw DRIEK,-The bsr-keeperS At WallG WallA
have introduced new kind Of "nipper." 1t iS
called the Beasts Cock Eye" Il iG made
something like the ordinary cocktail, bat differs
in this-you stir it with = spoon, sGuint one eye
while swallowing, then slip the Spooa in your
pocket 1t is decidedly an excellent "sys>0pen-
er" aud renders it necessary that the bar>keep-
ers sdould be sleepless and vigil.nt.
FRUIr CRor.-The prospect is yet favorable
for the most abundant fruit crop 10 this valley
the coming season that has ever been raised
here. The peach, pear and plum trees are now
heresbOuts = decidedly horal appearance. II
will be recollected that last year (Which was az
exceptional one for late froGts) considerable oi
the fruit was killed Es late as the 18th Of Nay.
NEw SrocK.-Nr. W. P. Adams, Of the old
I" Brick Corner" has just returned from San
Francisco with = large and very 6ue stock Of
ladies' and gentlemen's dresI GOSds, dry goods
-l--L.-r-, .--h-.~i-s al tLAlstAsA aiyl.. I'D
fashions, which the Aessrs. Adams will cell al
the very lowest rates. Persons wanting 0resh
and fashionable goods, should call and examine
the new stock
SERIOUSLY ISJURED.-A week or two GiHee .
youth named Frank, eldest son Of Frank Stone
whilst 10 attendance at the lower district school
accidentally fell, aud although knocked sense
less at the time nothing serious was Gpprehended.
He was at once removed to bis fatber's houre
and Notwithstanding every thing that medical
skill can suggest hAs been done for bic relief
the little fellow has continued to sink until At
this time but slight hopes are entertained Of hiI
recovery.
JOIN sCHISANEN. = For the past two weeks
there has been . steady stream of ChiuGmen
pouring through this Valley on their way to the
mines. To all. appearance they come like To-
Gusts, and should the deluge continue fer any
considerable length of time they are quite sure
to overstock the labor market and drive white
workngmen out of the country. 1t 10 part Of
the radical policy to encourage the influx Of the
Inferior races, aud just 90 loug Gs that party iS
kept in power We may expect to see negroes and
mongoIisns fetsd aud pstted snd white men
sriven to the wall.

LOOKS BLuE-We regret to notice that our old
friend Baker looks decidedly blue, Tho old gem
tleman should not take his disappointment SO
greatly to heart. The fact is that politics, al
best, is a lottery in which the blanks greatly
outnumber the prisss, and if GHr6elde has goi
the inside this time, probably the Doctors time
will come next, Take courage, Doctor, aud il
your radical friends have bled you to the tune
of over two thousand, you have only TO rAisc
the rate of interest and in that way make your
self whole on your political investment.
PERRY CREEK M1SRs.- several parties Of mi
ners left this city during the week for the new
mines in the Kootensi district, among them the
herewith brothers, who were mining in the new
camp two months last fall. They report to III
that they mined with rockers along the banks o
the creek and made from $l2 to $40 per day tc
the hand. They are very ssnguine of the sx.
tent and richness of those diggings. They for
merly mined in the Kooteuai and Carriboo mines
but are now content to spend this season in the
new camp, believing they are justified in sc
doing.
