Amos Bowman contributes to the July
Overland an article entitled "a City $780,
900 Years DID," OF which he has discov-
cred the remains at Cherokee, Butte
county, California. The ruins consist OF
half dozen "metates," or stone NOR
tars, of the kind used by the California
Indians, found at a depth OF forty feet or
more under the surface of the ground in
strata OF sand or gravel, which, in Mr..
Bowman's opinion, were on or near the
sea beach at the time the mortars were
in use, and were covered up by other
strata of gravel in the Pliocene Age, and
that preceded the volcanic and glacial
eras in California. One of the mortars
when found had the pestle in it, and all
had evidently occupied their places ever
since the deposition Of the strata which
covered them when the miners dug them
out. The time since the deposition ia
calculated at 180. 900 years. Doubts may
be raised in regard to some of the ideas
expressed in Mr.. Bowmap's article, but
there is a common opinion among geolo-
gists who have visited the State thai
men lived here 10000 years ago OF
more, and at least as early as the pas
Pliocene Age. when the dead rivers OIL
the Sierra Nevada were still living
streams, and the great volcanoes had moi
yet reared their heads above the adjacen
country, or poured out the lavas thai

JUsrIcEs CoURT. = The case Of the
State VS.. John Doe Texas for malicious
mischief, was called at IL o'clock yes
terday morning. at which time defend
ant was allowed until O'Clock in the
afternoon 10 summons witnesses for his
defense. At o'clock Court convened,
and after trial of about an hour in
which defendant was ably defended by
his counsel N. H. Lichtenstein, the
Court adjudged him guilty of the mis-
demeanor and let him go on his own
recOgnizance until 10 o'clock this morn
ing, when he will be sentenced. The
Judge intimating that he was convinced
that f" Tex" was guilty Of breaking the
window, etc., and that knowing himself
guilty ought to have pleaded guilty in
stead of putting the county to the ex-
pense of trial, that be then would have
made his sentence very light; as it was
he would take it into consideration. He
also said that parties guilty of such con-
duct need not plead drunkenness as ar
excuse, as he would certainly have no
pity on them. In the case of the State
vs.. Thomas Miller, defendant was held
in 5000 bail, but being unable to fur.
nish that amount was lodged in the
County Jail. The further hearing in the
case was postponed until Thursday, July
