Not long ago a man was hung in Ohio, and on the gallows he state) that his parents were; as much to blame for his crimes as he was . himself; for, said he, ‘when young.

Comment .on that is unnecessary. ' Our railroad is about completed, and if the same daring spirit and—carelesaneés continues to prevail_ among}. out boys as las been sbewn since the railroad reached the vicinity of this plaee and ‘Grass Valley, we may expect te hear of several being killed. ~Purents should insist that when they allow their boys to go out to see the railrodd, they must keep off of the track and-thecars.

Why abould a dollar of silver’ be issued that is not by reason of weight and fineness equal in value to a gold dollar, and being so equal; why should it not be a legal tender for'$100 or $10,000? Then no one would be cheated! Then there would be no brokers shaving off the poor man's earniags.

The elaims. where the cave occurred ate at Sailor Flat, aboat one mile from the Blue Tent House, and about six miles from this city. They ute owned by Campbell, Peck, Chadwick and Storey. It seems the owners of the claims had been expecting @ portion of the bank would cave, and gave the warning to the Chinamen who were there employed. At about 10 o'clock yesterday morning the cave occurred, whilé four Chinamen were at work, and they all saw it coming, and tried to get out of the way, ‘Two of them were—baried ‘ alive_bythe cave, and, another was caught, but im such a manner as to be enabled to get out without assistance. He was, however, considerably broised, and the other one escaped without a scrateh. A large fores of men went to werk to get out the two Chivamen who were covered Up, .
