An Augusta Boy In California.

We make the following extracts from a letter
dated Gbsonville, Cal June 18th, from F. b. D.,
an Augusta boy:
On the 26th of May we had a severe snow
storm, lasting two days, which ended with II
inches Of snow on the level. Can you beat that
in Mainei 1t is now very warm, and the rancho
men are bringing their fruit and vegetables TO
market very fast. We get splendid fruit here
apples especially fine, and will keep from fall
until new apples come again.
The grass is fast drying up liz the lower
counties. Drovcs of cattle and sheep are being
driven through into the mountains for fee |.
one drove Of sheep pass through here with a
small number OF $500, the shepherd told me, il he
had not lost any; they are driven by mules, men
and dogs. Cattle are very suspicious they are
driven by horses. If you corner one up he will
fight. They know not what a fence is unless it is
of inch plank with posts set very close together
and deep in the ground, and are twice as high as
a mans head They are built for the purpose of
slaughteiing.
There is no farming land here. Twenty-seven
miles north from here, in Plumas county, we find
a very pretty valley by the name of Quincy. 1t is
the prettiest place in the upper counties. | spent
a week there looking round. 1t is not a very
large village, the principal business being done by
the saloons. 1t has four stores, post office, two
hotels, two school houses, court house, and five
saloons. few miles beyond is what is called
Indian Valley. The Indians are numerous there,
but good natured. We found place called Bog
Meadows, for keeping horses and cattle. Gibson
vile is $40 miles from San Francisco, in the
northeastern part of the State. The climate is
superb here. One man was killed and another
supposed to be fatally injured recently, at the
Union claim.
