Who said that love was dead
Or lost in wild desire?
In spirits truly wed
Still burns the holy fire.

AL Junction, of the Grand Swain HeaG-LgM,
who sucks from Uncle Sans bottle and goose
quill as Census Marshal for the county of Greene,
in his paper of last week relates the following
moving adventure:
The duties of u census-taker are onerous and
poorly paid, but what it lacks in spelter is in
some degree made up by the large grist Of the
ridiculous and amusing that works itself out Of

with a lively hope within us that we could find
our way without erring, we bade the old folks
good night and travelled away The first room

had run on girl No and her lad, doing up
good lot of sparkling. We blurted out an apol-

sure our bed was awaiting us, and we boted
right into the room, just in time to hear a smack
which reminded us OF the time when our paren-
tai took us across his knees ana let slipper
drop with some force. We saw that we wasn't
company for girl No. three and fellow and left
We went out on the porch and sat there on II
bench in the dark shadow, pondering in our
mind the vanit ties of life and the unusual amount
of sparkling going on in the rancho. We looked
carefully down to the other end of the fourteen

boy and girl SO mixed up that we could hardly
tell which had the waterfall We moved, the

from the engineers that the Sacramento river
route is the best they can find for easy and

The engineers have been making the greatest
efforts TO find an easy route up Pitt river and
also McCloud river, but without success.
We learn from JOS Denny, of Caohans, that
a company Is about being organized at South
Fork and Collahan's to work the bed Of the
South Fork of Scott river, above Callahan's by
putting III bed rock ilumc, The expense of
such an undertaking is estimated at about eight

Hooper ledges which paid SO richly some years

on Humbug. At Cottonwood, the mill at the
Northfork ledge is now running, and we will
soon know how the rock averages. Richardson

very rich quartz. At ORC Fino, Trimblo & Co..
