Thus passed the Fourth of July at Grass Valley. —s A FIERCE RUNAWAY. The king-bolt of a two-horse wagon passing up Mill street, at Grass Valley, on the Fourth, by some means came out, dropping the box tothe ground. The horses became frightened, and started toward Main. Street at a frightful speed,-with the forward part of the wagon. At the junction of the two streets they collided with the carriage of H.C. Mills, and broke a wheel. This, in ® measure, checked them in‘ their mad career, but they dashed onward up Main street, towards the Grand Stand, the vast wultitude getting from before the frightened animals as best they could, At the lower end of thé Stand the road was completely blocked with buman beings On came the horses, and nothing seemed to prevent a score of women and children from being trampled to death.’ When within two feet of the dense mass of people, the horses were suddenly seized by a half dozen men, the violence being so great as to_throw the animals on their haunches,thus stopping them suddenly. It was-a very remarkable as well as fortunate escape from certain death of a number of persons. WILLIAM WATTYS CONDITION, A consultation of Doctors Hynt, of Nevada City, Sawyer, of San Frangisco, McCormick, of Grass Valley, and LaBaree, of Moore's Flat, was held at. North Bloomfield yesterday morning, inthe case of Hon. Wm. Watt, who was do seriously injured by being throw from a carriage on Wednesday morning last, and his condition was pronounced precarious. In addition to the thigh bone,. three of Mr. Watt's ribs are supposed to be broken, and itis feared that he Also. sustained severe internal iojuries. An inflammation of the bowels which has commenced is a source of great. suffering to the unfortanate geatleman.

The lady was attired in a dress.of light,.material, ‘and stood in front of the Exchange Hotel, listening to the remarks of one of the public speakers. Suddenly an Indian in. the crowd shduted “Fi-ah! Fi-ab!” at the same time pointing with both hands toward ‘the place-where Mrs. Bighop stood. Mr. D. Kendig occupied a position in4 the audience close to the lady, and . glancing toward her im reponse to the-Indian’s gesticulatiens, he discovered that the front part of her dress’ was on fire; Immediately he siezed hold of the buraing garment, and begaa to tear + foem hat body. Comprehending that such a cdurse would not subdue the blaze, he relinquished his hold upon her—momentarily for the purpese—of-taking off his coat ‘and smothering the ‘fire with it. At. this, the terrified woman broke away from him, and dashed wildly inte the Post Office, slirieking as she went: The. draft produced by thé rapidity of her mad flight fanned the flames until t ey shot up into the air a distance of two or three feet above her bead. John Glasson, formerly of this city, followed the living pyramid: of fre’ into the’ office, and grasping the wothe floor, and succeeded in extinguishing the fire, which had probably owed its ns, Rabe to.a fire cracker. through the here oriea! unscathed, although the hantis of both her rescuers. were badly burned as a resuit of their noble efforts. } A gentleman who witnessed the above incident, says that he bas never before beheld so thrilling a scene as was then affordea. It was an event that caused the spectators to stand agbast with horror, and even though they realized the danger threatening the life of a human being, with few exceptions their power of action seemed to vanish in the fearful presence of the atari element. TRAGEDY AT UOUTCH FLAT, — On Thursday estiiai last, at 10:80 o’clock,a bloody tragedy occurred at Dutch Flat, wherein a former well-known resident of this city played a prominent part. Dick Tracy, who a few months since was proprietor of the Gold Reom liquor saloon, over on Broad street, got in to an altercation at the time and place above mentioned witha saloon keeper by the name of George Granger, in the latter's establishment. Both of the men made some desperate threats against’ each other, and the result of the row was that finally Tracy drew a revoiver and shot Granger, killing him instantly, Tracy is under arrest, / HOW IS THAT? Now, what does the Call mean by the following reference: ‘‘A few months ago, in this city, a man retired from the newspaper business without defending himse!f—without making light of the $45,000 of a capitalist'’s money he had expended, He was a knave after spending every dollar he could rake: up—money earned by his wife as well as himself. He took no meaps away with bim; but it was all the same, so far as bis teputation was covcerned. In speaking of newspa rs, they have bad w hard time of it for several b years all over thecountry. Is SunFrauciseo,for instance, one siugle eftort bas cost a. capitalist $105,000 ee and the end is not yet,” . adage ——. the foregoing paragrap 8 pro y to the su pressed fact, that Merk McDonali, about the time be. ‘wanted to be Senator, put up $45,000 for the Mail, or suffered himself to be bled to that extent by Dalziel. The Muil was one oftbe most infamous bewspapers ever pablisbed on this coast, and it did not die » day too soon. The other geference, we take it, is to a well autuenticated re rt, that Jobn P. Jones suok $105, 5.000 in trying to establish the mes and then gave toe paperto Jackson, whu is bow rupving it at a ounsiderble loss.

A reliable citizen of San Jose while . : in this place aday or two since, in to death at the celebration in that; ,bfing sbout the streets encountered a certain young man who lately came to Nevada, and the unexpected meeting caused considerable sturprise on the part of one and a feeling of-chagrin or perhaps em-. barassment so ‘far.as the other was concerned. The reason of this we are informed is as follows: Not long ago San Jose boyaged about twenty years, suddenly disappeared from home. His parents made an . endeavor to learn his whereabouts, and. for a time were unsuccessful. Finally,however, they obtained’ traces of bim . which, beingfollowed_up,Jed_them . to infer that he had sbipped from. San Francisco vn board a boat that . was bound for aforeigan port. Knowing thut thoughts of pursuit . would be useless, they hushed ‘the ‘eircumstunces up so far as the newspapers were concerned, thinking that doubtless the runaway would soon wearyof bis sea-faring life, and return. at the earliest opportunity. The above was the latest construction put upon his movements by the distracted parents. ‘Tne gentleman referred to in the first part of this article now ipforms us that he’ was more or less acquainted with tbe suppo-ed sailor prior to his departure, and “that he thinks the boy be met on Broad street here, is none “other tha: the prodigal. He says that his suspicions receive confirmation from tbe fact that the young fellow evinced great trepidation when their eyew met. _We mention no names io connéction with this affair, hoping that the-wanderer. ma: reconsider his rash course and retarn home without further delay In case he does net, ists to give the entire facts im the ipteresting case, and tbus inform the mourning parents of the wher+ abouts of their wayward-son._Thegentleman who furnishes us with the above infurmation also agrees to forbear saying anything about it either here or in San Juse, in eveut the object of so much trouble will speedily tiken, His parents” are highly re spectable people, and the home he left a deeirable one. His motive in coming here is said to be a silly in fataution for a young girl whom he once met in another city, and loved, . and now pursues. ‘PHE DAY IN NEVADA CITY. The Fourth of Jaly came on Thursday in Nevada City thia year, leastwise so was printed in the almperson of more than ordinary perceptive faculties to determine the truth of the statements made by the chronological sharps. All day long the city bore a deserted aspect, save at the intervals just previous to the departures of the excarsion train for Grass Valley, when the streets leading depot-wards were thronged with people of all ages and conditions, each enteriaining one uppermost thought, and that was to see as much of “the'day we celebrate” as their visions could possibly drink in. And speaking of drinking, an occasional one of the jubilators evidently absorbed something beside mere sights and sounds ; for if they hadn’t, how in creation could. the unprejidiced observer accdunt for the limber legs and blood-shot eyes that eome of them brought home ? It was a gala day, especially for the children; and there were many of minature age went down, too, for some of whom we dare say the exer¢Cises contained novel features. Thus Nevadg was left lonely, just enough of the pupulation who had seen and heard such shows time and time again, and retained no desire to participate in the tuss and fury of the celebration, remainiag ind to gvard the city from fire or other accideas. A “@aD MAN * ‘The Frackee Repuplican says that on Thursday of last week, in Sierra Valley, aman commonly known os “Grizzly” Davis, attempted to take the life of Jim Miller, the cattle man. He caught Miller down in the meadows between two sloughs where ibere was no chance to ercape, and advan. cing, with pistol presented, to within . a few feet, pulled the trigger.

The lady was attired in a dress.of light,.material, ‘and stood in front of the Exchange Hotel, listening to the remarks of one of the public speakers. Suddenly an Indian in. the crowd shduted “Fi-ah!

Comprehending that such a cdurse would not subdue the blaze, he relinquished his hold upon her—momentarily for the purpese—of-taking off his coat ‘and smothering the ‘fire with it. At. this, the terrified woman broke away from him, and dashed wildly inte the Post Office, slirieking as she went: The. draft produced by thé rapidity of her mad flight fanned the flames until t ey shot up into the air a distance of two or three feet above her bead.

TRAGEDY AT UOUTCH FLAT, — On Thursday estiiai last, at 10:80 o’clock,a bloody tragedy occurred at Dutch Flat, wherein a former well-known resident of this city played a prominent part. Dick Tracy, who a few months since was proprietor of the Gold Reom liquor saloon, over on Broad street, got in to an altercation at the time and place above mentioned witha saloon keeper by the name of George Granger, in the latter's establishment. Both of the men made some desperate threats against’ each other, and the result of the row was that finally Tracy drew a revoiver and shot Granger, killing him instantly, Tracy is under arrest, / HOW IS THAT? Now, what does the Call mean by the following reference: ‘‘A few months ago, in this city, a man retired from the newspaper business without defending himse!f—without making light of the $45,000 of a capitalist'’s money he had expended, He was a knave after spending every dollar he could rake: up—money earned by his wife as well as himself. He took no meaps away with bim; but it was all the same, so far as bis teputation was covcerned. In speaking of newspa rs, they have bad w hard time of it for several b years all over thecountry. Is SunFrauciseo,for instance, one siugle eftort bas cost a. capitalist $105,000 ee and the end is not yet,” . adage ——. the foregoing paragrap 8 pro y to the su pressed fact, that Merk McDonali, about the time be. ‘wanted to be Senator, put up $45,000 for the Mail, or suffered himself to be bled to that extent by Dalziel. The Muil was one oftbe most infamous bewspapers ever pablisbed on this coast, and it did not die » day too soon. The other geference, we take it, is to a well autuenticated re rt, that Jobn P.

A reliable citizen of San Jose while . : in this place aday or two since, in to death at the celebration in that; ,bfing sbout the streets encountered a certain young man who lately came to Nevada, and the unexpected meeting caused considerable sturprise on the part of one and a feeling of-chagrin or perhaps em-. barassment so ‘far.as the other was concerned. The reason of this we are informed is as follows: Not long ago San Jose boyaged about twenty years, suddenly disappeared from home. His parents made an . endeavor to learn his whereabouts, and. for a time were unsuccessful. Finally,however, they obtained’ traces of bim . which, beingfollowed_up,Jed_them . to infer that he had sbipped from. San Francisco vn board a boat that . was bound for aforeigan port. Knowing thut thoughts of pursuit . would be useless, they hushed ‘the ‘eircumstunces up so far as the newspapers were concerned, thinking that doubtless the runaway would soon wearyof bis sea-faring life, and return. at the earliest opportunity. The above was the latest construction put upon his movements by the distracted parents. ‘Tne gentleman referred to in the first part of this article now ipforms us that he’ was more or less acquainted with tbe suppo-ed sailor prior to his departure, and “that he thinks the boy be met on Broad street here, is none “other tha: the prodigal.

The Fourth of Jaly came on Thursday in Nevada City thia year, leastwise so was printed in the almperson of more than ordinary perceptive faculties to determine the truth of the statements made by the chronological sharps. All day long

the city bore a deserted aspect, save at the intervals just previous to the departures of the excarsion train for Grass Valley, when the streets leading depot-wards were thronged with people of all ages and conditions, each enteriaining one uppermost thought, and that was to see as much of “the'day we celebrate” as their visions could possibly drink in. And speaking of drinking, an occasional one of the jubilators evidently absorbed something beside mere sights and sounds ; for if they hadn’t, how in creation could. the unprejidiced observer accdunt for the limber legs and blood-shot eyes that eome of them brought home ? It was a gala day, especially for the children; and there were many of minature age went down, too, for some of whom we dare say the exer¢Cises contained novel features. Thus Nevadg was left lonely, just enough of the pupulation who had seen and heard such shows time and time again, and retained no desire to participate in the tuss and fury of the celebration, remainiag ind to gvard the city from fire or other accideas.
