Slljc Press. Personal —Daring the past week San Jaan has been fairly flooded with visitors, distinguish ed and otherwise. Amongst the former was E. 'G. Waite, Esq , our esteemed cotem. of the N«- Tada Journal. Eater in the week Mr. N. P. Brown, of the same establishment, and George S Hqpp, Esq , illuminated the office of the Pres* by a flying visit. Still later, John L. Gamble, Esq , surveyed our poor sanctum. Mr. John P. H. Wentworth, traveling Agent for Mrs. Connor, is now in town soliciting subscriptions on behalf of the Mount Vernon Ladies’ Association. Oar citizens are too weU acquainted with the obiect of this association to require any explanation at our hands. Suffice it, that the patriotic ladies composing it are ma king the most zealous exertions to raise the $200,000 ’Which they have contracted to pay, be fore the next anniversary of Washington’s birth day. A subscription of not less than one dollar makes every American citizen a member of the Association, and the donor’s name will be in scribed in the archives of Mt. Vernon, to be kept ‘forever. Mr. Wentworth will call on our citizens to-day. NoVel Mim.no Experiment.—We are inform ed that some miners on the South Yuba near Badger Hill have set sluices tne width of the river in the channel of the stream itself, and have so arranged it that all the tailings and wa ter will pass through their boxes, which are pro vided with a false bottom of blocks, serving as riffles to catch the precious scales. This, in effect, if it succeeds, will convert the South \ üba at that point into a mammoth tail sluice. It is thought this novel experiment will succeed if the winter freshets do not carry off the flume, and if they do not, the gentlemen alluded to will extend their flume for a considerable dis tance alo g the channel. Should they happen to be successful others will try the experiment, and It is not improbable that every river bed in the mountains will be completely cleaned out and employed as a tail-sluice. An accident occurred in the claims of Pen rose & Co. at Relief Hill on Wednesday or Thursday which might have resulted Lt-lty.— The company have two tunnels, one above the other, which are connected by a shaft This ■ shaft becoming blocked up with dirt and water, Stephen Harris—alias Harry Bluff—went Into ' the lower tunnel for the purpose of tapping it ' with a view to clearing it. There being consid erable water in the shaft the whole m->ss of mud and stones poured out in a flood which -sweet Harry through the sluices fur a distance of one hundred and fifty feet, and within the length i f ■ one box from a precipice of seventy-five feet deep. He fortunately succeeded in getting out at this point, and thus saved bis life. He was not much injured. Such accidcrtts as this are very frequent and often terminate fual ly. It was thus that the late Mr. Palmer came to his and. If miners would allow the water to • drain nut of the choked shafts before they at tempt to clear them away, there would be less danger of losing life or limb. JKB” The Rac--.« at Moore’s Mat oame off last Saturday according to advertisement. There “was not a very large attendance nor was there much outside belli" g. Do the first day Jackson entered “F..nchey,” •and “Ten Broock” the “Roan Mare'” for the $75 parse—the Roan winning by six teet. Second Dav—Purse $lOd —Tim Smith enter ed “Frank” against Whipple’s Koan Mare —cue horse winning the race hv2l feet. Third Purse $l50 —Hank Smith entered “Peglcg.” and “Ten Broeck” “Gray l)ttck v -*- the latter winning the race by 30 feet. It is Said— that monte and other kinds of : gambling which are prohibited by law a e openly practiced in this place every night. If this is so, and continues, San June will ■oon lose its good character. If there ate any persons who really violate the law in this shameless manner they should be com plained of by some person cognisant of the fact. We believe the resident Justice of the Peace is one of those eccentric people who do not believe that gambling is essential or con ducive to the moral welfare of communities, and he would doubtless do his duty if a com plaint were made before him. A word to the wise is sufficient. The editor of the Grass Valley ,V./- -iional —who seems to be a right cheerful sort of a ■tody—in reply to some remark of the ■California Spirit of the puts his own name on the lapstone of his ingenuity and hammers away as follows: “ Right kind of spirit, Mr. Spirit, We 'feel glad to see you waxing warm at last on that end. By the way, if your soul (sole) ’needs repairing come to Grass Valley, and we’ll try to fit you with a new understand * ing, and tend you homo well hammered and strapped, and warranted water proef." The Mountain Messenger man was ■lately invited to a ball, but declined, lie ways; ■“We felt satisfied that any attempt on our ipart to try Varsoviana or Schottische would •resalt in a kind of amalgamation of St. Vi ■tue’ dance and blind staggers.” By the way, how do our friends who abide 3a the regions of snow manage to keep up «nch a genial flow of fancy as the Messenger eahibits? The mantle of Winter seems to fall upon their hearts with the same influ ence that it does upon the earth—keeping it warm and causing the tender grass to shoot up its spears of verdure. By* The Ladies’ Festival for the benefit ofthe M. E. Church will come off at the church Wed nesday evening Nov. 10—supjrer at 8 o’clock. The ladies are zealously preparing for the occa sion, and intend to make it one of great e> joy ment. There are some wicked bachelors who do not care much for the church but who will at tend the Festival nevertheless, and one of them remarks that there is a magnetism in certain eyes that would extract gold from the hardest cement. gS~ Owing to a remarkable windfall of loca items, we are unable to give our usual nummary of State news, and must completely ignore the arrival of overland mails and Atlantic steamers. Bat in all these matters the majority of our rea -ders are kept well posted by the Marysville, Sac ' ramento and San Francisco papers. Those who -are not, wo hope will be kind enough to excuse •ns. If they only knew how the crinoline has been flattering around and through this office they would wonder that any paper is issued a all! Iff We are under particular obligations to Messrs. Winham, Ewing & McDowell for hospi table attention and valuable information extend ed to us on the occasion of a recent visit to their claim on Sweetland Creek They escorted us around the diggings with that cheerful polite ness and willingness to oblige which are so char acteristic of the California miners.
