lHE LATE ". VI. UOING.-ln yeSter-
days issue we noticed briefly the
death OF this gentleman. Since then We
have learned some particulars in regard
to the unfortunate gentleman. He for
merly lived in Nevada county. CAL, and
afterwards in Austin. He has here q
few friends who know him as "a good
man and true" He was frst-class
engineer and machinest, and his handi-
work is 10 be found in various portions
on the Pacific coast He arrived here
about ten days ago from San Francisco,
to which city he came from British Gel
umbia, where he has of late been putting
up machinery. He seemed respondent,
We are told, and spoke in gloomy terms
of mundane things, Being unwell and
in highly nervous condition, he pro-
cured an ounce of laudanum, of which
he took too heavy dose, either by ac-
cident or design. and on Wednesday
night attempts were made to arouse him
from the stupor, but with only partial
success, On Thursday he died. DR..
Philson, the Coroner, made post mort
UNI examination, and found that his
liver was diseased 1t is probable, how
ever, that the immoderate use OF laud-
anum hastened his death, if it was not
the immediate cause The deceased is
known to few residents here. He was
probably 30 years of age. Deceased
| leaves sister in Placervillle, Cal.
! Among his effects were found lot of
mining stocks of little or no intrinsic
value. His funeral yesterday afternoon
was attended by number of people who
desired to show their respect to the men,
Dry of stranger who had been cut of in
our midst. t-.g-r..r.
MELANCHOLY DEATH.-Julius c. Mey-
er, of the firm of Meyer Il Smith, died
Of pneumonia in this city yesterday
morning. Deceased but short time
since came to this place and engaged
in business. He was taken sick, and
despite every effort in his behalf, he
died yesterday morning. He was of
German extraction, born in Akron, Ohio,
in July, 1851. 1t adds to the melan-
choly of the event to state that he has a
father, now Mt Treasure Hill, quite i'll,
and the death of young Meyer adds to
the grief of the stricken mother. The
body was sent to Treasure Hill for final
interment. Deceased was known to
many of our citizens and respected by
all. 1t is sad commetary upon the
) frailty OF our tenure upon life, that one
SO young should thus suddenly be cu
, of in the prime Of life. In their grea
affection the public heart is in sympathy
; with the bsreaved parents.
