JuDGMNrIcAL CRrrIc.-Those Of our
numerous readers who attended the
recent concerts given by Madame Ca
milla Urso, at Virginia or Carson, may
perhaps be able to appreciate the fol-
lowing criticism Of her concert at
Grass Valley, copied from the Union
OF the 10Th ultimo: ave make the
assertion about magniticcnce under
standingly and advised1y. Every IN
who attended says 50. We have 4
friend Of cultivated ear who was there,
and he went into raptureS over the fine
notes, and up to yesterday he had not
recovered of his ecstatic lit. Our friend
was raised on Paw Paw Creek, Mis-
souri,. Raised OIL butter, milk is his
chief drink. Hog and hominy were
his food, and and he vas clothed in a
raiment of tow linen until his twenty
second year. In his youth he hunted
coons in the bottom-field by night, in
order to preserve the crop. Reared
up b~arefooted. he has large feet now,
aud he has made 4 fortune in feet. He
came across the plains in the spring
of so. and has become rich. He is,
probably. on that account, and by
reason Of his polite associations in San
Francisco, the best judge OF French
wines and operate music now on the
coast. He says the concert was glo-
rious for Grass Valley, and that in
san Francisco 1t would have been
good"
CANDLEsTICK STABBISG.-A couple
OF miners in the Savage mine last Mon
day night quarreled, and IL Of them
stabbed the other in the left side or
breast with n ~candlestick, probing him
under the skin for two or three inches
or so. Luckily the cavity Of the chest
was not penetrated. so the wound Is
not a serious me-. The stabbiSt escaped
but was captured by the police Of Nir-
ginia last night and has his eXamina-
ton. One Of those miners candle
sticks is indeed \ wicked weapon, with
Its long, slender, sharp, steel spike
made for sticking into timbers, clay or
~crevices of rock. II can be slipped be-
tween q mans ribs, and prick 4 hole
in his heart or lungs without half try
ing. II is fully rs ugly rs 4 bowie
knife to stab with. and 4 deep wound
made by it is even worse, from the
small outlet it leaves.
