A new swindle is being played
in the central part of the State
of New York. A we'll dressed
man stops at a farm house and
engages accommodation for a
drove Of sheep and a man who
drives them. The sheep and
drivers are to come along the
next day. The pretended agent
stops over night, has the best
fare the house affords, and slips
off the next morning without
paying his bill. The sheep and
drivers never appear, of course.

WINTRY WEATHER.

WINTRY WEATHER.
By JESSIE FERGUSON BROWNE
All what woful time il is,
When Ger the earth descending,
The hail and rain, that icy train,
With all their ills attending;
When trees are bleak and destitute
Of natures gay adorning;
And from the North the wind comes forth
Full many wintry morning.
No token s nigh that halls with joy,
The youthful years advancing;
No cheering scene of vernal green,
The cheerless earth embracing;
The clouds on high obscure the sky
Their sOmbre hues prevailing
The atmosphere they darken Ger,
While every part assailing.
Aye, what woful time indeed,
I'll really quite appalling;
Long weary months of winter yet,
Of snow-fakes often falling;
Of raj ns and hail that will not fail
To give their portion freely;
And wind that blows o'er Northern SHOWS
Around US almost daily.

c, BAINE.

Being crowded this week, we will publish the names and amount paid by each next week. In noticing the above record, we can only say that we are prouder of it than if we had built hun dred miles of railroad. Taking into consideration that our com munity is poor, in fact everyone pushed, it shows the right spirit we give to the support of our school. Though we want, and are hard pushed for means, yet the education of our children shall not be neglected. This is what it says. Let it go forth that Yuma, (hard name as it has, and pOpula- tion scarce,) in three hours sub- scribed and paid for the support of her public school the sum oi 401 dollars. Comment is unneces- sary.

PUBLIC SCHOOL PICNIC AND
 Steamboat Excursion.

It has been determined by the
 Trustees and friends of our public school, to give a grand picnic and steamboat excursion on the lst ol May, for the double purpose ol giving the school children pleas ant time and raising funds in aid of said school. Capt. Polhamus, Superintendent of c. s. N. Co.,,
 will allow one of the steamers to make the excursion merely for
 the actual cost to the Company Of
 running her. A pleasant grove
 will be selected, and the ground cleared off, wh ere it is proposed
 to have 8 "basket picnic," that is,
 families and others will take such
 eatables and luxuries as they may choose to provide There is no danger but that the provisions
 will be abundant Good music
 will he provided, and those who may wish to dance will have an opportunity. We know those who have this matter in hand are determined to make it one of the most delightful things of the kind ever seen on this side of the continent.
 All the children attending the public school will, of course, be free. Adults will be charged a good figure, which we have no doubt all will gladly pay for the benefit of the school and for their own enjoyment on the day. We expect to see the steamer and barge crowded.
 We have made this announce ment thus early, to give our peo- pie time to prepare, and that oth- CTS out of town, who might like to join in the enjoyment of the the occasion, may be notified. Posters and tickets will be issued in due time.

The Virginia City Snow slide.
From the Enterprise

Traces of the avalanche which came down from Mount Davidson during the late heavy fall of snow are still visible. In many places snow still remains to the depth of six or eight feet, while the houses which were demolished are as they were left after the huge mas ses which crushed them had spent their force. Some are hurled from their foundations into the street, others are crushed into shapeless masses ofdebris, while others still, which were only partially. demo- lished, have been repaired and are in use. The residents along that part of Howard street tell of hair breadth escapes, some of which are truly startling. One man was on the roof of his house and saw a huge ball of snow coming down the mountain, increasing with great rapidity and making direct ly toward him. He jumped of, rushed in, caught his wife and threw her from the back part of the building, where she was sit ting, just as that part of the struc- ture was crushed to atoms. Au- other talks of covering over the snow as it lays in the yard and using it for &n ice-house all Sum- mer, while still another has dug into the compact mass and shel- ters thereiu his pigs and goats from the piercing March winds which sweep tn a heights. It will De montns suIll ere that part of the city will recover from the terrible snowballs hurled on it by Mount Davidson.

San Francisco must have 8 precious set of internal seoundrels, according to the following, which we copy from the Alto.
 That city needs another puriflca. tion such as the Vigilance Com mite of 1856 gave it. We fear nothing else will do it. Hang the williams, clean them out, wipe them from the earth and you will do service to God and hu. manity:
 Is there man in the city whose cheeks do not feel a blush of in- dignation as he reads the reports of the Investigations that have been going on for weeks and months past? Bills made out for from a quarter to third more than the real claim, and paid, and the thief retaining his extra charge as the hire of his villainy. And the worst of all is the Depart ment which should be the purest -the school Department. There we find women wait 1g for months and years for position as teachers, and never obtaining them until they feed some scOundr rel-bOught their place 8s teachers from some vile knight Of the dish-clout, or other V2sabclo, who should be at San Quentin,

Mexican Bandits Menacing Texas

NEW ORLEANS, March 5th.-A Brownsville special says: "A dis patch from Sheriff Lee of Hidal- go county to Judge Dougherty states that forty armed Mexicans crossed the river from Mexico, near Rhodes rancho, twenty miles below Edinburg, and eight cen armed men crossed at Isinta- las, about eighteen miles above Edinburg. It is reported that they are going to the prairies. Great excitement exists along the lower river, Reports from all points state that armed Mexicans are gathering on this side of the river. General Potter says he has not troops enough to patrol all the river. Many believe Browns vile is menaced."
