COUNTY & CITY OFFIC! FRIDAY, APRIL 19, 1867. ns eestesemaineerbneeihiemnieiiemnenien ee Unton County CENTRAL CoMMITTEE. ‘There will be ameeting of the Union ‘County Central Committee, on Thursday, the 25th day of April, 1867, at 2 o’clock p M., at the Armory of the Nevada Light Guard, Nevada City. A: full attendance ‘is requested. N.W. K owLTon, Chairman, A.C, Nines, etary. onal = Frre at Rep Doe.—Yesterday morn, “ffig about 4 o’clock, a fire broke gut in'the dry goods and clothing store of E. Mandell, at Red Dog. We are indebted to A. _ F. Mason, Deputy Assessor for the partic ‘alars. ‘The alarm—was sounded and ina few moments citizens were out hard at work. © The building was entirely consumed, and the flames caught on the roof of the brick store of M. J. Hydeliffadjoin‘ing. This buflding sustained no other damage than the destruction of the roof, and the conflagration was stayed in that direction. On the other side the building owned by H. Henderson was destroyed.— Had the wind been blowing at the time, the fire would undoubtedly have spread to ‘other parts of the town. Mandell’s loss is ‘about $2,000 and his property was insured for $5,000. District Attorney Caldwell yesterday went to Red Dog to investigate the facts connectefl with the fire. It was ; undoubtedly the. work of an incendiary.— ‘The entire loss is probably from: three to four thousand dollars. Red Deg is unfor‘tinate, having been entirely destroyed by fire last Sunimer. A BRILLIANT METEOR.—Yesterday morning a brilliant meteor was seen by parties who were returning from Rougly & Ready, and no doubt by all other persons who were out at that hour, as it perceptibly increased the light of the moon. ‘The meteor was apparently about the size of a star of the first magnitude, It start‘ed in the East and passed in a southerly direction over nearly forty-five degrees, gradually approaching the earth. During its passage it divided into two parts-and soon after these burst asunder, scattering ‘sparks in every.direction which were lost in the darkness. It was pronounced by ‘all who saw-it a magnificent sight. One ‘of the party asserted that it was “a comet ‘as big as Sugar Loaf, with a tail that loop. ed around thé North Pole,” but it is believed that he was inclined to be comical. ae , A NEGLECTED ORDINANCE.—We believe there is a city ordinance providing that hogs owned within the city limits shall not be permitted to run at large in the streets. “These “grunters” are a con. summate nuisance in some parts of the town. We heard of a gentleman who was carried off his feet by a “porker” that bolted out of a gate as he was passing . along the streets. Hogs are always poking their noses where they have no business, and they are not a creditable ornament for any town. It is reported that Satan tovk possession of these animals long ago, and no one will deny that he has held: undisputed sway in their hogships since, If the ordinance alluded to above does not exist, it should, and if it does, if ought for the credit of the town to be enforced.— ~ Swine should not be extended the frecdom ‘ofthe city. . SLuicE. Roppine.—A correspondent writing to the Grass Valley Union from You Bet, states that on last Wednesday night, during the storm, the sluices of McNally were cleaned up. The writes Says : “While there was a full head of water running through the sluices, and a man was attending the pipe, after washing down part of the boxes at the upper end of the-flume, the sluice robbers cut out part of the side ef onebox where it was high enough to turn the water and gravel out above where they had rifled down to, and by this means they cleaned up quite easily ; and in: this condition they left the boxes for the man at the pipe to run tailings all night, before knowing that he had had assistance. The company had been running two weeks; and the robbers must have secured a good stake.” » A string of sluices at Buckeye Hill were algo. robbed in the same manner. _ sagt PIO NiC.>-The. Howell: Zouavesof Grass @Valley are tolidve a pic nie and target éx: cursion on the ist day of May, Tue Party A . — evening a party wasgiven at ling’s Hotel, Rough & Ready, for the purpose of raising money for repairing the . Pablic School building. . Early in the eve ning the vehicles begun to come in, and to fill the pleasant dancing hall to its utmost. Nevada was represented with a delegation of some twenty ladies and gentlemen, and there’ were. several present from (irass Valley, Nearly every ranch and camp in the sehool district was reprecome, that made them all feel pertectly at home, and while the ‘entertainment partook of the properties of a grand ball, there was all the sociability of a pleasant Walling and his son, (the 4atter, by the way is one of the “boys that wore the blue” with Grant all-through the war,) did their utmost to make all happy, and that they succeeded, all who.were. present testify. After a pleasant dance, the party “sat down to a repast prepared by the ladies of the District. The long tables presented a beautiful appearance, and the viands with which they wereloaded gave ample evidence that the fair ones were mistresses of the culinary art. The supper being djsposed of, the dance was resumed and continued until morning. The result in a pecuniary point was not less than as an entertainment. The receipts were over $500, and as the ladies donated the suppper nearly all of this amount is clear gain. , emp pondent writes to the Appeal of aconfidence man, whose “dodge” is eloéution.—. He gave a few evening’s reading organized a class to teach elocution, collected tuition from several pupils and “skedaddled” without giving a lesson or “seelig” the landlord. , He is described as about 25 years ofage, 54 feet high, stout built, florid complexion, and-a tolerable reader, with a good voice. He reads “Shamus 0’Brien,” “Poe’s Raven,” etc, He wears a grey suit, slouched hat, and don’t carry much baggage. Let citizens of this countylook out for him. 8 ASSAULT TO MURDER.—The National says, Jas. White was arrested upon complaint of Zeph. Mansaw, charged with as” sault with intent to commit murder. Aecording to Mansaw’s sworn statement, White assaulted him with a large framing chisel some fourteen inches in length by an inch-and-whalf broad. The difficulty occurred at Union Hill last Sunday morning. Mansraw received several severe cuts under the eye, CoMMITTED.—The National siys that the Chinaman who stabbed one of his countrymen at Forest Springs, a few days since, has been held for examination before the Grand Jury. Ir is currently reported that Sydney Howard Gay, late managing editor of the rials for the life ef Horace Greeley, a work which his long and close association with his distinguished subject will qualify him to perform. Victor Hugo says of Louis Napoleon: He lies.mute and motionless, looking in the opposite direction to his object, until the hour for action comes ; then he turns and leaps upon his prey. A DAUGHTER of M. Dumas has written a novel, A RUMOR prevails in London that Sir Bulwer Lytton is soon to be married again in spite of his advanced years, te “Ic DrEN” is the motto of the Prince of Wales. It means “I serve,” and was adoptéd by: the Black Prince from the blind old King of Bohemia, whom he killed at Poictiers, Its latest use is a sign: over a saloon at Montreal which reads) thus :— “Prince of Wales Restaurant.

But wondered at what he meauit,and was quite sure that no such sum had ever been deposited in his hands by the astonished rustic. After several ineffectual-appeals to the recollection, and finally to the honor of Bardolph, the farmer applied to Curran for advicé in the matter. “Have patience, my friend,” said: the counsel. “Speak to the landlord civily-; tell him you have left your money with some other person. Take a friend with youand lodge with him-another hundred ain the presence of yourfriend, and then eome to me.” He did so, and gal-friend. . And now-Lecan’t see how I am going to Ve the better off for this, if I get my rsecond hundred back again ; but how is that to be done?” 4 Se “Go, ask him for it whenhe is alone,” said Curran. : . .““Ay, sir, asking--wen’t-do. not.” “Never mind, take my advice,” said the ceunsel: “do as I bid you and then return to me.” a ] The farmer returned with-his hundred, glad to find that sate in his possession.— “Now, sir, 1 must be content, but 1 don’t see as I-am better off.” : “Well, then,” said the counsel, “now take your friend with you, and ask thé landlord for the hundred pounds your friend saw you leave with him,” We need not add that the wil y. landlord found that he had been taken off his guard, while our honest friend returned to thank his counsel, .exultingly, with both hundreds in his pocket, —— ie then returned to his le Pm~ afraid THE box rent of the New York post office is about $70,000a year.
