VERY interesting case was on trial yesterday before Justice Neugass. MT. s. Clarke, while travelling through the country southeast was taken sick. and ar rived March s, very weak and nervous. and almost crazed from the effect Of stimu- lants taken 10 keep him up during the ride. On the 10th he was removed to the rooms of Mir. Anderson for greater com fort and quiet, and Dr. c. V. P. Watson was called in to attend him. For two or three days he was pretty sick, but then he began to mend and on the 18th the Doctor ceased his visits, MT. Clarke not requiring further attention. During these seven days pr. Watson claims To have made thirty-eight visits to his patient and to have furnished ten bottles of medicine The Doctor claims that the frequency Of the visits was caused by the requests Of the patient made each time he called. Mir. Clarke says that with the exception Of the original call, and once when the Doctor was sent for, the number of his visits were left entirely to the judgement Of the physician. But the remarkable part Of the case appeared when the Doctor presented his bill and named six dollars as the price for each of the thirty-eight visits. Aside from the question as 10 i--''-'''A- or not pr. Watson was entitled to practice medicine in Ars4Una at all. the point Of the case was as to the real value Of the services rendered. All the other physicians in town were called as vii nesseS, but it seemed a difficult matter to arrive at any thing very definite from their testimony, because they were not able to understand the propriety of such a frequency Of visits in such a case. How ever, they put the value Of the service rendered al from S35 to S6O. and the Jus tice was left 10 decide the matter This he did this afternoon by awarding to Dr. Watson the sum Of s45.5O, and the value .oi the medicine he furnished.

 IT is generally supposed that the In- diau's love for mu!e-fiesh is so strong that he would consider "stray " particular Of Providence in his favor, and say nothing about 1t. But wonders never cease, and so We have it 10 state that yesterday two Papagos went about town on the novel errand Of finding an owner for two mules which had come into their neighbOrhood, and for which they had cared. They succeeded in their search and we hope they Were well rewarded.
 SAMUEL HUGHES has sent 10 California for 100000 redwood shingles. This move ment is made because the shingles sent here from Silver City for the church were of snch poor quality that they could not be used. and as 10000 were required for that work it was thought well to try a large shipment. IL is understood that the California article can be laid down here at Ss a thousand.
