letter from Bear Valley, of the 9th

evening of March l>t, in Il state of in
toNicat;on, in company with two boys.
with the intention of going to the resi-
dence of MIR. Parker, on Bear Valley
mountain-he being employed by Mr..
Parker in placer mining. When about
mile from his employers house he
insisted, against the solicitations of the
boys, on sitting down under 4 tree to
rest. when the boys left him. He had
with him a bottle of whisky and it is
supposed that, in his drunken delirium,
he wandered OIL and perished from
cold and exposure, in one OF the many
gulches in that vicinity during the
night. Search and inquiry have been
made, but he has not been seen or
heard of since. Barney has been on Il
pretty regular drunk, with very brief
interInissions, for about twenty-five
wears.
