sanity is unknown. He started for SteckThomas Brannan, Ag ge
stabbed Herman, was yesterday pronouncef insane by Doctors Huntatid Cummings
and ordered to Stockton.. He is a native of
Treland, aged about 25 and cameto this
State four years since from Pennsylvania.
Brannan after he was committed to jail, attacked # sick prisoner and shut him up ‘in a
cell, locking the door, The ¢ause of his inton to-day in-custody of A. B. Carley, ve ie

in January 1848, he escorted &'party of emigrants.to.this Siate, and. came ;down theridge upon which the Banner mine is lovated, in June 1848 with his party. He
at that time and camped a mile or so above
town. He washed out some of the gravel
on the banks of that stream and found gold
prospects. Mr.Marshall came to this
~=--State:in-1845.. Hewas-compelled to change
his course oh account of the high water on
the Missouri; or he would havé réached
California in 1844:' He’ went north ard
came.by way of Oregon. His discovery of
gold peopled California and influenced the
‘ trade of the civilized world. He is now an
old man and ought to have 2 Competency.
A Good Mine.
The Maricetta-mine, located.on the banks
of the Seuth Yuba, above. Washington, is
proving ohne of the most valuable quartz
mines_of this county, and it is_so extensive
as well as rich that the owners, Lindsey &
Co., formerly of San Juan;propose increasing the capacity and improving the works
this Summer. The ledge averages 12 feet
wide. and pays all round $20 to the ton.
The Company has opened the ledge and
\ ggushed enough.rock to demonstrate the
uniformity of yield’ and size, and prove
that they possess a mine of immense wealth.
The operations of this, the Star and other
mities in that section of the county, this
Spring and the good results therefrom, will
give a new impetus to prospecting and lead
to the development of other valuable claims.
b
Sale of Mining Claims. ’
The sale of the extensiye hydraulic and
cement mining claims as well as the ditch
property of Ed. Williams, at You Bet, has .
been negotiated with Mallory & Stone-and
some other parties living at. Gold Run,
‘Placer ‘county. The price to paid is $55,000 and the’ bargain to be closed in tén days.
There was some talk of selling this property toan English Company, but they failed
to come: to termes, and: the new company
was organized here and the sale made as
above. This makes.the third sale of extensive mining property made in Nevada within thirty days. »-Mr.Williams does not, propose to’ Jeave the county, but thinks some
of ‘coming to Nevada or Grass Valley to reside.
Po
@dd Fellows’ Anniversary.

The Fable of Distances.
We publish to-day a valuable table carefully compiled from the ‘‘Field Notes” of
H. 8, Bradley, who has been for ‘some time
past surveying the County Roads. In some
instances small fractions are omitted, but
nearly all the distances given are exact.
The suryey of roads in Little York and
Meadow Lake townships is not completed.
These we will publish as seon as they are
finished. These tables are worth preserving as nearly all our citizens have occasion
to refer. to distancgy f from one place to another in the county.

@ lecture on Physiognomy, in Nevada Theaptess Of the principal Atlantic’ cities and
San Franciseo'as well Sacramento, highly

A Nugget Found.,
“A few days since a fine lump of gold,
worth $40, was found in the Brandy Flat
claims, near Washington, by Mr. Ferran.
It is compact and_ looks as though it came
in its present. shape from, quartz having
been smoothed a little by the action of the
