Personal.
Gen. Allen, the veteran editor, so favorably
known to the press and Californians generally, is
at present on a visit to oar town, and honored
this office with a call.
Row. Mr. NcCoUom,
who is the resident Baptist Clergyman at Neva
da, preached a sermon in this place on Wednes
day evening last, and in accordance with the re
quest of his pleased audience, will preach here
again one week from next Wednesday evening.
Due notice will be given.
The Flrat Rain
of the season fell on Tuesday morning last, be
fore daybreak. There was just enough to lay
the dust and startle the owners of leaking bouses.
The Old Oak Tree
which stood in front of the meat market on Main
street, stands there no longer. Mr. Guthrie
clung to it lovingly for a good while, although it
grew inconveniently in the centre of the side
walk by his door. He could see something beau
tiful in it, and proudly named his establishment
after it; but its spreading branches were in the
way of his two-story brick, and its stout trunk
too great an obstruction to street travel, so he
reluctantly consented to its removal. It was the
last remnant of the original forest left standing
In the street, and now that it is gone the portion
of the town where it stood seems vacant and
lonesome, and the naked front of the new brick
building stares very impudently at the desolate
air.
Quartz About San Juau.
Several gentlemen of this place bare lately
taken np and recorded a ledge of quartz which is
situated very near town, and which it is confi
dently believed will pay to work Some favora
ble prospects have already been obtained by
crushing small portions of the rock in a mortar,
and it Is the intention of the parties concerned to
folly test it forthwith.
If paying quartz can be found in this vicinity
it will add largely to the prosperity and perma
nence of the community, by opening a wider
field for the investment of capital and the em
ployment of labor.
There is certainly enough quartz to be found;
the only question is—will it payl It is worth
while to know.
Inhuman Cruelty.
Some wretch in human form was seen beat
ing a horse with great violence over the head and
nose, on Tuesday evening last, not far this side
of Cherokee. He was driving a span of horses
attached to a wagon, and what the poor brute he
was murdering had done to offend him we have
Bot learned; but he could have done nothing to
warrant such cruel punishment. The man (1)
beat him across the bead —the most sensitive
part of a horse—with what appeared to be the
heavy iron end of a trace for at least fifteen ruin
ate*, the helpless and bewildered animal strag
gling ineffectually to avoid the storm of blows.
When this occurrence took pUce the pine
woods wore dark with the coming night, the
planet Venus shone like a smaller moon in the
West, the Comet fi ished its streaming hair to
the left of ruddy Mars, and all nature was calm
and lovely. But that miserable wretch, insensi
ble to all this, and to the thousand starry eyes
that saw his infamy, let loose the hell of hie pas
sions on the dumb, helpless brute which had
served him long and faithfully. Such a man as
that would not respect woman’s innocence nor be
touched by the tears of orphans. We should
dread to be in his power, and would avoid his
acquaintance as if be were the mnrderer of babes.
There is too much of this wanton and useless
cruelty to animals. Very frequently men may be
seen along the roads beating their dumb servants
Jut a* described above, or even worse—we knew
a man once to gouge oat a mule's eye t Persons
who have so little feeling as to be guilty of such
•ots cannot be deterred from them by appeals to
their humanity; but it may cheek them to know
that (here is a special statute prohibiting cruelty
to animals, and which provides as follows :
"Every person who shall maliciously kill,maim
or wound any horse, ox, or other domestic ani-
P*l belonging to another, or shall maliciously or
crdrlly beat or torture any such animal,
WHETHER BELONGING TO HIMSELF OR ANOTHER,
•hall, upon oonviction, be punished by a fine of
got more Mian five hundred dollars, or by
Imprisonment in the county jail not exceeding
•lx months, or by both such fine and impris
onment.”
MAll**o»sena, John I”
A Chinaman applied at the stage office in
ihis place for passage to Nevada, saying that he
hid money with him, but had plenty in Neva
da Bad would pay there—"all-ee sem.” The
•geat refused to allow him a passage on these
terms, but John stowed himself in the
•lago, expecting to be allowed to proceed. The
■goat was about to drag him forth, when John’s
baadoaddoaly dived into a »ea of nankeen and
EMUO Bp with a doable eagle, out of which he
pU US'far*. The crowd of on-lookers laughed
g wr nij. •( John’s cool mendacity and his defeat,
be Joined them, bearing on bis face a can
ning look as if be deemed that he bad exhibited
•ommeedabie shrewdness.
Associate Judges.
Eaqairea Collins, of Cherokee, and Hart-
XAN, of Moore’s Flat, were on Monday last elec
ted, by the Justices’ Convention which assem
ftitei u Nevada, to the dignity of sitting as side-
in the Court of Sessions. They will no
dfgbt have the high honor of giving their opin
ions as to the hardness of the bench.
Garden.
One of the best gardens in this vicinity is
owned and cultivated by Chinese. It is situated
ob the little brook which crosses the road to
Freeman’s, and yields all sorts of Celestial vege
tables not generally raised by Americans. The
owners deserve ranch credit for their industry and
neatness.
Cabin Robbed.
Some time during last Saturday the cabin
fit Charum Godfrey, on Willow Creek, was
broken open, and robbed of $25 or S3O. A per
son who would thus steal the hard earnings of a
poor miner is ne gentleman, and we question
whether he has the poursge to “pry ‘stand’ to a
Newspaper Changes. —Mr. J. S. Butler
of the Red Bluff Beacon , haying sold the of
fice to C. E. Fisher, takes leave of his pat
rons and cotemporaries in a very manly and
unaffected valedictory.
Ben. B. Kooaer, whose paper, the San An
dreas Independent, is second to no interior
journal in California, has withdrawn from
the editorship of that sheet, and is succeed
ed by a former contributor, Mr. Seabough,
who wrote that poetical brevity—“ Music of
the Night.”
Mr. Geo. W. Welch, of the Alta Ex
press, Nevada, kindly forwarded to this of
fice yesterday, a package of San Francisco
dailies. Among them is that neat little sheet,
the Evening Telegram, which has for its
figure head a vignette representing America
and England, in the form of an Indian and
white maiden, sitting upon the cable beneath
the Atlantic, and whispering to one another.
County Items.
From the Democrat of the 6th, we glean
the following items.
Robbery and Murder.— Last Sunday
evening four white men went to a Chinese
camp on Bear river, about two miles above
Little York, for the purpose of robbing them.
There were four Chinamen in the camp, who
resisted, when the robbers fired on them,
killing one of the Chinamen instantly, and
wounding the other three. The robbers then
took what money they could find and left.
County Business. —The County Supervi
sors elect, Messrs. Grier, Davis and Everett,
met at the Court House on Monday, and
were sworn into office—Mr. Grier being Pre
sident of the Board. They were engaged
Monday and yesterday in looking over the
affairs of the county. Yesterday evening
the Board adjourned to meet on the first
Monday in November.
Killed. —A melancholy and fatal accident
occurred at Moore’s Flat on the 25th ulr., re
sulting in the death of Mr. Charles Doc, for
merly of Rutland county, Vt. The deceased
was at work in some-mining claims, where a
shaft had been sunk to a depth of a hundred
and fifty feet. While standing on a board
which had been laid across the shaft, it broke
and he was precipitated to the bottom. An
iron bar, which fell into the shaft at the
same time, was run through his body, enter
ing the abdomen and c jming out at the back.
He was brought to the surfrce as soon as
possible, and survived about two hours,when
he expired.
Quartz Machinery. —Mr. A. J. Doolit
tle, of Grizzly Hill, in this county, has re
cently received a patent from Washington,
for an improvement in quartz mill machinery.
The invention consists in employing flat
springs to which the stampers are connected,
for the double purpose of guiding the stamp
ers and increasing the force of the blow. It
further consists in so arranging the battery
that the finer pieces of quartz can pass out
so that the large pieces are always exposed
to the full force of the blow. From an exam
ination of the drawings, we should judge
that the improvement might be used to ad
vantage in quartz mills.
Brutal Assault. —An elderly lady
named Davis was brutally knocked down in
the Brooklyn House, on Broad street, by one
Tim Murray. Mrs. Davis received several
severe but not dangerous wounds upon the
head from the club used by her drunken as
sailant. Justice Smith bound the fellow over
to the next Grand Jury in SI,OOO bonds.
Social Ball. —The ladies of Snow Drop
Social Temple, Moore’s Flat, were to give a
ball at that place on the evening of the Bth.
The JVcvada A'ational of the 2d, gives an
unusual quantity of local items of interest,
a portion of which we re-print:
The eastern end of Main street of Grass
Valley, is a scene of considerable activity in
the way of mining. Many shafts have been
sunk to the bed-rock, drifts run, and piles of
dirt taken out to await the coming of water
for washing. In one place the street has
been let down a little by the caving of a
drift. We understand that most of the dirt
taken out prospects well. Ouc or two com
panies have panned out as much as two bits
to the pan.
Quartz mining about our town is decidedly
‘looking up.’ Activity is every where to be
observed. Good times generally may be an
ticipated this coming winter, and especially
easy steamer days
Messrs. White & Co., on Wednesday last,
cleaned up SIO,OOO, the result of crushing
100 tons of quartz. The ledge is about three
feet thick, and they were just three weeks
taking out the SIO,OOO.
New and Rich Mining Fields. — Within
the last few months it has been discovered
that the red dirt on the bills hereabout con
tains large quantities of gold. The dirt is
carted to the mills and there crushed and
washed. Whether sluicing it off would pay.
has not yet been tried, on account of the
scarcity of water. This discovery plays ha
voc with the theories of many. How gold
got there, is not a question with those en
gaged in hauling red dirt; and had they
paused to deliberate the matter, probably
never would have found the gold. Certain it
is that though seemingly poor, and without
the ‘concomitant circumstances’ which show
gold bearing earth, the red dirt does pay.—
Messrs. Larimer & Co. are crushing red sur
face dirt from New York Hill, which is pay
ing them from $6 to $8 per load. From
Ophir, Sebastopol, Gold, Osborne, Echo, and
many other surrounding hills, parties are
engaged in carting the dirt. There is no
doubt but that dirt from all the bills, whose
surfaces contain decomposed quartz, may be
obtained which will prove highly remunera
tive.
The expense of this kind of mining is se
small that capital is not required to embark
in it. We have beard of several companies
forming to try other hills than those men
tioned.
Celebration. —Monday evening last the
inhabitants of Grass Valley celebrated the
laying of the Atlantic Gable, without any
concert of action, or any previous arrange
ment. The canon—‘Old Democracy’—was
called into service, and awakened the echoes
far and wide. The celebration was entirely
impromptu, and the gladness which every
where was exhibited, showed that the popu
lar heart was in it
We have to thank Mr. T. Worthington for
a present of figs. They were raised about a
mile above this place, thus showing that win
ter here, is not sufficient to kill the trees.—
Mr. Worthington’s example should be fol
lowed by all—plant some fig trees.
Graves. —We were shown a second crop
of grapes, growing in Dr. Tompkin’s garden.
The clusters are nearly as large and full as
those of the first crop, and bid fair to ripen
fully before cool weather.
The value of the buildings now going up in
Grass Valley, and of those completed within
the last three months, amounts in the aggre
gate to about sixty thousand dollars.

SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN
PROSPECTUS.
Volume Fourteen begins Sept. 11,1858
Mechanics, Inventors, Manufacturers
and Farmers.
The Scientific American has now reached its Four
teenth Year, and will enter upon a New Volume on
the 21th of September. It is the only weekly publica
tion of the kind now issued in this country, and it lias a
very extensive circulation in all the States of the Union.
It is not, as some might suppose from its title, a dry,
abstruse work on technical science; on the contrary, it
so deals with the great events going on in the scientific
mechanical and indostrial worlds, at to please and in
struct every one. If the Mechanic or Artizan wishes
to know the best machine in use, or how to make any
substance employed in bis business—if the Housewife
wishes to get a recipe for making a good color, Ac.—if
the Inventor wishes to know what is going on in the
way of Improvements—if the manufacturer wishes to
keep posted with the times, and to employ the best fa
cilities in his business—if the Man of Leisure and
study wishes to Keep himself familiar with the progress
made in the chemical labratory, or in the construction
of telegraphs, steamships, railroads, reapers, mowers,
and a thousand other machines and appliances, both of
peace and war—all these desiderata can be found in the
Scientific American, and not elsewhere. They sre here
presented in a reliable and interesting form, adapted to
the comprehension of minds unlearned in the higher
branches of science and art.
