DEATH DE r II Rn1Er-Tha a

DEATH OF T. H. RoLFE.-The an
nouncement of the death of Tallman H.
Rolfe viii be received with sorrow by
thousands who knew and loved the man.
Few men who have filled public positions
and been for long time in politics, have
so many friends and so few enemies. He
died in San Bernariino, at the residence
of his brother, Judge H. C. Rolfe, No.
vember 18th. Decedent came overland
to Oregon in 1847, and came thence to
California prior to the discovery of gold.
Judge Rolfe was printer by trade, and
was employed on the Star, published by
Sam Brannan, in San Francisco. He
worked on the journal, in Nevada CITY,
Cal, in 1853, and afterwards started the
Nevada Democrat, of which he was edi.
tor, in company with his brother 1. ].
Rolfe, George I. Lammon and A. 2.
Church, the two latter named gentlemen
now residents of this city. After thew
sold the material of the Democrat the
Judge went to Austin, and was EMPLOYED
on the Reveille for time. He subse
quently went back to Nevada City, and
became the editor of the Gazette, when
E. F. Bean, of this paper was the pro-
prietor. For the last few months his
health had. been gradually failing, and
now he has gone where the wicked cease
from troubling and the weary are at rest.

.HoRAcE GREELEr.-We have the sad
intelligence to announce this morning
that Horace Greeley has become insane
and has been sent to the Asylum at
White Plains. The recent loss of his
wife, together with his signal defeat for
the Presidency, contributed to this mel
ancholy result. His unfortunate condi-
ton cannot fail to touch the heart OF
every man who appreciates honor, philan-
thropy and patriotism. Mr.. Greeley has
occupied SO prominent place in jour-
nalism that his name is inseparably con-
nected with the political history OF the
country. His deplorable condition will

PATENT YOUR CLAIMs.-The Congress
sional mining law approved last May,
and now in full force in every mining
district in the United States, require
that on all claims located prior to the
passage Of the Act ten dollars worth of
labor shall be performed, or improve
ments made each year for each one hun
dred feet in length along the vein until a
patent has been issued therefor. The
law designed to make it an object for the
owners of such claims as are non-pro-
ductive, and on which work is not car
ried on steadily, to patent tine same as a
matter of economy. But there are other
considerations which should induce own
ers Of claims, supposed to be valuable,
to obtain Government patent. 1t
enhances the value Of the property, and
secures the title forever, thereby prevent
ing expensive law suits which, under the
possessory title acquired by the local
laws, frequently follow the development
Of a good mine. Many of the old loca.
tons in this district maintain possess.
DRY title, and only requires an apnual
expenditure Of two or three hundred
dollars on each claim, but by obtaining
patent, the probable cost of which
does not exceed $500, the title is secured
forever. Under the present law, tn
amount of labor necessary to be eSpend
ed on claim before patent can be OBJ
tanned, has been reduced from 81 ,000 to
$500, and the publication of notice o.
application from ninety tc sixty days.

Or1uM-EATlNG IN MAssACHusETTs.-.A re-
port by DIR. +. f. Oliver, of Boston, states
that on inquiry among the druggists of Bos-
ton 1t Is found that there are many regular
customers for opium. One druggist says that
although he never sells it without physi-
clans order, he has on an average five or six
applications for it daily, in some one of its
forms. Two other prominent druggists have
each six habitual purchasers. Several report
one or two. Much seems to depend Oh To-
callty. In the more public streets, and in
parts of the city where those addicted TO the
habit mostly reside, the sales are much larger
In Worcester one druggist reports that
"opium is used to an alarming extent in that
community"
In Charleston inquiry was made at eigh-
teen druggists shops. Of these, "eleren
had ut present no regular customers; one
never sells except on prescription; the re-
manning six report sales to regular pur-
chasers Of opium az follows: each shop has
an average Of two, the largest number to any
one being four"
In Chicopee, the druggists report that they
hive great many regular customers. Many
others in various parts of the State speak of
the habit as quite prevalent. A prominent
druggist of Boston states that "the sales of
opium preparations to the country trade is
out Of all proportion to those of other drugs"
From these statements the inference is I'M
avoidable that the opium habit is more or
less prevalent in many parts ofthe State, and,
although it may be impossible to estimate it,
the number addicted to the drug must be
very considerable.

SINGULAR REvENGE.---A correspondent OF
the Albany Express writes: About forty
wears ago there resided in the town of Jack
son, Washington county, Il well-to-do farmer
BY the name Of Ferguson. He WAS indus
triolls aud frugal, but after a time became
addicted to the use Of Intoxicating drinks,
aud when under the influence of his iayOritc
beverage would be liberia. to such III extent
that he would give away any property which
might be mt his disposal ut the time. Fearing
that he would thus squander all his effects, a
commission was obtained and the property
placed in the hands Of his son. When the
papers were served on the old man he re-
marked, "You have taken my property from
me, have you, and are obliged to support and
take care of meY Well, then, take care Of
me-" He Immediately took to his bed, and
continued to remain there day and night for
twenty years. For the first few years he
would get up md shave himself every S,tur-
day, and then Immediately take to his bed
again; but for the last fifteen years of his
life he was waited upon as an infant, not
withstanding he enjoyed good health, and
was in the possession of all his faculties,
mental and physical.
