Haight took the oath to support the Constitution and to administer the laws, It is yet in existence and as much a law of the land to-day as it was on the day it was approved, to-wit, April 24, 1861, and. as it was onthe day Henry H. Haight assumed the office of Governor; or as it was beforea corrupt Democratic Legislature with a corrupt Governer atits head, passed a law granting The South Star shaft is down 230 feet, and drifts have been run. / They have out 150 tons of rock, and a! three foot ledge at the bottom of the mine. The New York Hill mine, which bas been idle two years, is again being worked, and it is expected that cre will be taken out in four weeks. Perrin’s mine shows rich rock with an improving ledge. The Grant is the extreme southern mine of Grass Valley district. The Seven. ‘Thirty is sending out more of that . $200 to the ton ore which has made te mine famous. In gravel mines much good’ and paying work is being done. The Webster Company have a rich depositof gravel, and successful work is being done. ‘Fown Talk is working with splendid results. The mill of tae Town Talk is now being run by steam power, and scarcity of water will not prevent constant work. The Altoona has a large and rich body of gravel as far as explorations have been made. Alta No. 3 is getting up % steam mill to crush their gravel. The situation of the Grass Valley mines is most encouraging. A Lirrie Bu.—Governor Haight, with his troops, marched up the hill and then marched down.again. He found mo war in Amador,.and no pretext for using Henry rifles upon the miners, but the State will have to pay for the sport; Nevada county . coming in for her share of the expenses, Look out for a bill of $20,000 to $30,000 at the’ next session of the Legislature, as the cost of the Amador war. In Pajaro township, Monterey county, there are 521 children, between five and fifteen years of age; oi this number, 427 attended school _ ‘Two new papers are to be started at Portland Oregon. to the Mercantile Library Association of San Francisco, the power to hold three lotteries to rid itself of an immense debt, part of which was owing to the personal friends of the Governor, and perhaps if the truth was known, to the Governor himself, When Gov. Haight signed that Act which made it a law he either knew that he was violating the Constitution, or he did not. If he knew it, then he committed perjury; for the Constitution expressly declares that Sec. 27. ‘No lottery shall be authorized by this State, nor shall'the sale of lottery tickets be allowed. ” If he did not know it, then Gov. Haight is an ignoramusand totally unfit-for the position he occupies. In signing the bill allowing lotterics, he not only violated the Constitution and his oath, but he also became morally responsible for.sll of the consequences growing out of the Act. A member of the Christian Church, h> became an aider and abettor in the worst species of gambling ever concocted by the human brain. The very worst influences have followed and thousands of persons have been brought nearly to ruin in consequence of that one act of Gov, Haight’s. The signing of that act was infamous, and so the people of the State will say through the ballot-box before the ides of September. Henry H. Haight took an oath before High Heaven that he would support the Constitu. ticn of the State, which says as plainly as language can make it, that **Nolottery shall be authorized by this State, nor shall the sale of lottery tickets be allowed.” And yet with that aath and the Constitution staring him in the face, he did approve an Act allowing three loiteries to be held in the State and lottery tickets to be sold. People of California look at this matter as itis and then say whether a mau so lost-to decency and honor is fit to rule over you. * ‘a New Yor« never had.amore peace‘able celebration of the Fourth. The children monopolized the enthusiasm and the old folks lookédon, perhaps with melancholy recollections of the time when all ages and séxes ‘in the hub-bub, and the ‘couundruni had never been put—does patriotism pay? 6 o abare% in action or other val. mables may lawfully(?) be disposed of by ; chance, rafilé, or other scheme of like char. Krex’s Hrstory.—The Gold Hill hoped to hoodwink the public by calling . this . cubic yard (in Ross Browne’s Report, . . 1868) for this last region. We may . say in addition that we believe -Mr-+ Pettée’s calculations to have been as . bly more carefully than any before: News, speaking of this man, recently hung by the Vigilance Committee, . says: George B. Kirk was born in. Fayette county, Mo., and was about 36 years old. “He came to California atan early age. He has never been noted fora gocd character, and is said to have killed his uncle before leaving home, andalso a man in California. While serving out a term in the Nevada State Prison for burglary, some five years ago. he took and active part in the famous prison outbreak when Alexander Hunter, the Warden, received a severe wound in the arm, from which he subsequently died. Kirk was charged with having fired the fatal shot, but it was never proved. Since his release from the State Prison he has lived at Virginia until’ the death of Perkins. He has not been engaged in any legitimate occupation, and his cabin was always the rendezvous of all regular thieves, incendiaries, etc. The real cause of the present summary proceedings in his case was doubtless the fact that since the hanging of Perkins and his own expatriation he has on various occasions publicly threatened to retaliate, and only a day or two since he stated in Carson that he would come to Virginia when he pleased and kill anybody who dared to interfere. He has threatened the Committee many times, and loudly boasted that all he wanted was to come across some of them. “Tap” Laxcotn Deap.—A dispatch from Chicago dated July 1dth says: Thomas Lincoln, universally known as ‘“Tad’’ youngest son of ex-President Abraham Lincoln, died this morning atthe Clifton House, in this city, where he-has been residing with his mother since their return from Europe. The illness which caused his death was of a pleuretic order, the result of a severe cold, taken shortly after his arrival here. The disease finally assumed the dropsical form, and the physicians some days since relinquished nearly all hopes of his recovery. His remains have been removed to the house of his brother, Robert Lincoln, who resides here, where funeral. services will be held, after which they will be taken to Springfield for interment in Oakbridge Cemetery, where his father is buried. The. deceased was in his nineteenth year, and was a young maii of great prom ise,-and the idol of his mother, who 2 _at that place Tue Olympia Tribune, complains of the extortionate wages extracted by Chinese house serHor weather has prevailed in the Owyhee country, the mercury standing a few days since at 106 degrees in the shade. <li AN important discovery of valuable irom ore has been made on the .

Haight took the oath to support the Constitution and to administer the laws, It is yet in existence and as much a law of the land to-day as it was on the day it was approved, to-wit, April 24, 1861, and. as it was onthe day Henry H. Haight assumed the office of Governor; or as it was beforea corrupt Democratic Legislature with a corrupt Governer atits head, passed a law granting The South Star shaft is down 230 feet, and drifts have been run. / They have out 150 tons of rock, and a! three foot ledge at the bottom of the mine. The New York Hill mine, which bas been idle two years, is again being worked, and it is expected that cre will be taken out in four weeks. Perrin’s mine shows rich rock with an improving ledge. The Grant is the extreme southern mine of Grass Valley district. The Seven. ‘Thirty is sending out more of that . $200 to the ton ore which has made te mine famous. In gravel mines much good’ and paying work is being done. The Webster Company have a rich depositof gravel, and successful work is being done. ‘Fown Talk is working with splendid results. The mill of tae Town Talk is now being run by steam power, and scarcity of water will not prevent constant work. The Altoona has a large and rich body of gravel as far as explorations have been made. Alta No. 3 is getting up % steam mill to crush their gravel. The situation of the Grass Valley mines is most encouraging. A Lirrie Bu.—Governor Haight, with his troops, marched up the hill and then marched down.again. He found mo war in Amador,.and no pretext for using Henry rifles upon the miners, but the State will have to pay for the sport; Nevada county . coming in for her share of the expenses, Look out for a bill of $20,000 to $30,000 at the’ next session of the Legislature, as the cost of the Amador war. In Pajaro township, Monterey county, there are 521 children, between five and fifteen years of age; oi this number, 427 attended school _ ‘Two new papers are to be started at Portland Oregon. to the Mercantile Library Association of San Francisco, the power to hold three lotteries to rid itself of an immense debt, part of which was owing to the personal friends of the Governor, and perhaps if the truth was known, to the Governor himself, When Gov. Haight signed that Act which made it a law he either knew that he was violating the Constitution, or he did not. If he knew it, then he committed perjury; for the Constitution expressly declares that Sec. 27. ‘No lottery shall be authorized by this State, nor shall'the sale of lottery tickets be allowed. ” If he did not know it, then Gov. Haight is an ignoramusand totally unfit-for the position he occupies. In signing the bill allowing lotterics, he not only violated the Constitution and his oath, but he also became morally responsible for.sll of the consequences growing out of the Act. A member of the Christian Church, h> became an aider and abettor in the worst species of gambling ever concocted by the human brain. The very worst influences have followed and thousands of persons have been brought nearly to ruin in consequence of that one act of Gov, Haight’s. The signing of that act was infamous, and so the people of the State will say through the ballot-box before the ides of September. Henry H. Haight took an oath before High Heaven that he would support the Constitu. ticn of the State, which says as plainly as language can make it, that **Nolottery shall be authorized by this State, nor shall the sale of lottery tickets be allowed.” And yet with that aath and the Constitution staring him in the face, he did approve an Act allowing three loiteries to be held in the State and lottery tickets to be sold.

Krex’s Hrstory.—The Gold Hill hoped to hoodwink the public by calling . this . cubic yard (in Ross Browne’s Report, . . 1868) for this last region. We may . say in addition that we believe -Mr-+ Pettée’s calculations to have been as . bly more carefully than any before: News, speaking of this man, recently hung by the Vigilance Committee, . says: George B. Kirk was born in. Fayette county, Mo., and was about 36 years old. “He came to California atan early age. He has never been noted fora gocd character, and is said to have killed his uncle before leaving home, andalso a man in California. While serving out a term in the Nevada State Prison for burglary, some five years ago. he took and active part in the famous prison outbreak when Alexander Hunter, the Warden, received a severe wound in the arm, from which he subsequently died. Kirk was charged with having fired the fatal shot, but it was never proved. Since his release from the State Prison he has lived at Virginia until’ the death of Perkins. He has not been engaged in any legitimate occupation, and his cabin was always the rendezvous of all regular thieves, incendiaries, etc. The real cause of the present summary proceedings in his case was doubtless the fact that since the hanging of Perkins and his own expatriation he has on various occasions publicly threatened to retaliate, and only a day or two since he stated in Carson that he would come to Virginia when he pleased and kill anybody who dared to interfere. He has threatened the Committee many times, and loudly boasted that all he wanted was to come across some of them. “Tap” Laxcotn Deap.—A dispatch from Chicago dated July 1dth says: Thomas Lincoln, universally known as ‘“Tad’’ youngest son of ex-President Abraham Lincoln, died this morning atthe Clifton House, in this city, where he-has been residing with his mother since their return from Europe. The illness which caused his death was of a pleuretic order, the result of a severe cold, taken shortly after his arrival here. The disease finally assumed the dropsical form, and the physicians some days since relinquished nearly all hopes of his recovery. His remains have been removed to the house of his brother, Robert Lincoln, who resides here, where funeral. services will be held, after which they will be taken to Springfield for interment in Oakbridge Cemetery, where his father is buried.
