. While: opposed to lotteries in
every shape or form; believing them
to be in violation of the Constitution
and jaws of dur State, and detrimental to the interests of the people in
general, your Committee take pleasure in saying to the people, that the
managers of this lottery scheme have
conducted their enterprise with honesty and the strictest integrity. That
the Conimittee had free access to the
books avd papers. connected with
the concern without let or hindrance,
and from them learied the facts herein set forth. The Committee also
satistied themselves of the. fact that
out of the moneys realized from the
sale of tickets, the managers of the

the amount of. their expenditures,

A New Kixp or oe —An exchange says: The perpetital . candle,
introduced and invented by” ‘Cassius
M, Clay, late Minister to Russia, is
gradually coming into favor whete
gas is not obtainable. The candle
consists of & small brass tube, within
which is placed.a tight fitting wick
soaked with kerosene. The tube is
inside another tube, made of white
china, and . simulating closely a candle in appearance,the whole taking
the look of anordinary~ ‘candlestick.
By heating the top of the brass_ tube
the kerosene soaked wick generates
gas and gives a file blazethrough a
number of small apertures in the end
of the tube. A good light for five
hoars, it is said, is thus farnishea
for the cost of oné cent. ‘THis is
certainly both simple and economical, and would seem to°obViate'many
of the dangers and objections to the
use of kerosene.

Tue Burrs “SLoves Ovutracs.—
Information has been received from '
West Butte to the effect. that the
party in charge of the reclamation
enterprise tried'ta save the filling
across Butte Slough by building a
bulkhead 200 feet above it, to stop
the cutting; but the back water cut it
so much on the lower side that it
split in several places, and —has;—up-. —
to.thistime sunk badly. All of the
moveable property was saved.” The
outrageous progeedings;: moteda few}
days since in-connection with the
destruction of the-dam, aré now re-ported in a reliable. shape. One
member of the party was surrounded
at midnight of the 27th ult. He had
traveled up the levee with his rifle,
and, finding one place where the
water had commenced cutting ground
hé went back to. the small houses and
called the Chinamen up, and then
entered ~ his eabin to get a cup of
‘ccffee. While ‘drinking the coffee,
another of the party went to the door
immediately returning to give informiition of the * presence ~of-Indians
or Kanakas. One of the inmates-of
the cabin: seized his rifle and rushed
tothe door, where he had the misfortune to meet twenty rifles and
shot-guns—muzzles toward him. In
addition to the. formidable band. of

the cabin. — The inmates of the cabin
