To-day Americans réjoice that the straggle is past, that the: bitterness engendered is fast giving way 4o feelings of amity. Bat a few days since one of the Confederate chieftains stocd under the old "flag, atid heard one of the patriotic Union tanes played, when he reveren-~ pene uncovered his head and exclaimed: “It’s our old flag after all, God bless it!”.

Sted the. + rr ie of estore SEVERELY Wovunpep.—On Friday afternoon, says the Grass Valley Union, a miner named Thomas Jewell, was badly wounded by a cut fiom an axe, in the hands of John Vial. As the at~ fair is detailed tq us; it seems that Jew. ell and some other miners are working ou Kate Hayes Hill, near where Vial has.a ranch. Jewell came out of the tunnel to get a post, and Vial was near. by the mouth of a tunnel cutting tim-., ber. Vial forbid the miners cutting a small tree, claiming that it was his. The miners, -however, proceeded to. throw a tree and totrim it for the purpose of taking itinto the tunne]. Some words ensued, when Vial struck at Jewel with an axe, It is not known whether: the first blow struck Jewell, as Jewell wardel it off. Jewell then started away from Vial but fell down. Jewell with the axo after the fall, cuts ting a deep gash on the top of the . shoulder, severing several arteries and a portion of the shoulder blade.

Our Patrerence.—As the Appeal has seen fit to express —a_preference in the selection of some of the officers of this‘county, we take the same right in regard to one of the candidates of Yuba. Wenotice that W.N. Granger, formerly of this county, has announced himself as candidate for the office of Seperenentans, of Eublie Instruction of Marysville, and has aed Rete be one of the best teachers and discipli~ narians.that the public schools of that city ever had. He is eminently qualified for the position to which he aspires, having had many years’ éxpe~ rience as a teacher,and at present holds a State certificate, Mr. Granger is a man of more than average ability, and the Overland Monthly has been enriched by productions from his pen. Several contributions from him have also appeared in the Appeal under the pseudonym of-“Noah,” and “N.” Mr. Granger isa relative of H. L. Hatch, of Indian Springs, in this‘county. We hope the Convention will recognize his claims Warre’s Lerrer. —It having been stated that Congressman Sargent gone to Washington to secure the Collectorsbip of San Franciseo fer KE. G.
