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.

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.

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,

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

And now-Lecan’t see how I am going

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,
