WILD CArs.-The OILY stirring ar

which is Gagged in the old saloon on
Meadow Valley street. Every few days
any person who owns a bull pup OF a
promising nature brings down his pup
to the saloon and starts in worrying the
cat. Sometimes the pup retires bowling
in good order. and other times the cat
lies down exhausted and the dog has to
be taken Off 1t is fun for the boys.
however, no matter how much the cat is
worried. On Tuesday q couple of dogs
were set on the cat, one catching her by
the nose and the other by the caudle ap-
pendage, then each pulling in opposite
directions, the result Of which was that
the cat stretched out to an unlimited ex-
tent and could do nothing with her ad-
verssries and they were taken off. Since
the late advent of the cats Cinnamon
have been purchasing the defunct ami
mails at the rate of $l.50 piece, using
them as food. and they seem to prefer it
even over fine crow stew.
AssEMBLYMEN LEAVING. Patton,
Assemblyman elect from this county. and
the handsomest boy of the pack. leaves
to-day for Carson and Virginia City.
We understand that Mr.. Patton will also
take d trip to the Bay so as to give the
San Francisco bellies an opportunity to
take sly glance at him. Nothing less
than $500, 900 girl will be able to make
George come down on his KEGS. Colonel
q. E. Allen and r. L. Wash will leave
during the coming week. It is to be
hoped that our Representatives will pay
strict attention to the ,Oishes of the tar-
payers of this county in regard to the
Judgeship and not saddle any more ex-
pense on the community, who are now
overburdened with taxes.
NEARLY A FIRE.--On Wednesday some
of our citizens noticed an unusual thick
smoke proceeding from the roof of the
Logan House, and on going thither they
found the stove-pipe and drum, running
from the ground floor of the house to
the top, red hot and blazing away at a
terrible rate. The fire was put out and
the pipe fixed. On inquiry it was found
that this pipe had been up for "six'
years, and during that time it had never
once been taken down to remove the
SCOT from it, hence the alarm from the
burning of the SCOT. Negligence like
this is very reprehensible and may burn
the town.
