____seinity of Truckee, where there are The Daily Transcript NEVADA CITY, CAL. Friday, June 16, 1871. Grass Varier Irews.—The _folyesterday's Union: Wednesday afternoon George Pascoe, a lad of 13 or 14 years old, was very seriously hurt, He was driving a span of horses, the wagon to which the horses were attached being heavThe Timber Interests. We learn that Jarge numbers of . forest trees have been set out in the . valley of ‘the San Joaquin, where heretofore timber was very scarce.— ily loaded. In coming down hill back of the Western Hotel, young Pascoe attempted to put down the brake. From seme cause the brake did not It appears astonishing that this has . not been done before in the valleys, . . where for miles there is often not a/ tree.or shrub to break the monotony . or give beauty to the landscape.— . Aside from these advantages, it is probable that the planting of trees extensively in the valleys wouldhave . a strong influence upon the climate. The timber districts of the State are . yet well supplied, and the young forests of pine and spruce that have grown up in these places where the heavy timber of the same character bas been cut, will be large enough. for fuel for the mills and mines, long before the supply can be exhausted. It is surprising how rapidly the young . growth of pine and spruce attains . sufficient size for fuel. All over the . hills in this county where the larger trees have been cut young forests are now growing up, many of the trees being nearly a foot in diameter. This county bavizig. the most. accessible timber for lumber, is annu. ally putting into market a large quan. tity of lumber of every description. Especially is this the case in the viextensive ranges of the finest timber. which are more’available on account . of the proximity to the overland rail. road. .The mills from Truckee are . sending lumber to every part of the coast, from Montana and Utah to the . Pacific ocean. In other parts of the” county a large demand is created by the mining enterprises and also to supply the markets of Yuba county. The supply, however, is fully equal .to. the demand and will be for years to come. There are yet large districts on this side of the summit where _ the timber has not been touched,and . if a cheap and speedy way to market . cau be secured, it is probable that . ~~ the production of manufactured ium. -ber would be doubled in this county. es Ir Jeff Davis continues to unbo50m his malignity the Northern Dem. ocratic press will think, with some ‘‘Radicals’’ that it was a pity he had not been hanged. Even such a bitter opponent of the Union war policy and Republican principles as the Chicago Times already declares that ‘‘Davis is a selfish, cold blooded, egotist, and a man whose obstinacy andincapacity led the Confederancy to defeat and ruin.’’ The same paper admon. ishes him that ‘‘he would best serve his country, and the few friends he has left, by keeping his mouth closed.’” Meanwhile, Davis continues to advertise his life insurance business as a sequel to his panegyrie of the “lost cause.”’ <> Aone those who by special invitation of the Grand Army Post took part in the dedoration of the soldiers’ graves'in New Bedford, Mass., was a Southerner who was a Brigadier General in the rebel army, and served under Johnson, Bragg;-Hood and Hardee, ~ oe THz Washington correspondece of the New York Post says that but few official repotta are received from South Carolina and other localities. _ where the Kuklux have been operating: All these are alike, however, in saying that the outrages uow committed are few in number, with a prospect of soon ceasing altogether. Tue Philadelphia correspondent of the London Times thinks that Hoffman is the stongest Democratic candidate for President yet named, but says that he is too much compromised by his connection with the Erie ring: Tue Presipenrian Visir.—It is now reported that President Grant ’ will start for this coast about the middle of August, and that before his return East he will visit Oregon and Washington Territory. The telegram also throws in gratuitously a Voyage to the Sandwich Islands, a highly absurd proposition: AN officer of a lunatic asylum in England put a patient in a bath, and, with brutal carelessness, turned on hot water instead of cold, thus scalding the poor madman to death. . He was arrested dnd committed for manslaughter, which considerably sur: prised him, work well and the wagon ran against the horses. The horses then started lowing Grass Valley items are from . says: The Hon. Samuel Triblecock Oates. of Red Dog, Nevada county, distinguished for eloquent speeches during the last session of the Legislature, arrived in Vallejo yesterday afternoon, and was received at the depot by a large delegation of Democrats.

Democrats For SarcEnt.—We were informed yesterday by a prominent Democrat in the northern portion of the county thatif Mr. Sargent is nominated for re-election to Congress ‘he will receive the support . af the majority of the Democrats of this county. They say he has done more for the best interests of our State than any two Congressmen we have had. They know that, while he has been true to the principles of his party, he has been unremitting in his efforts to secure the passage of laws for the benetit of the laboring classes of California.— Alpine Chronicle, The feeling is much the same in Nevada county, as is evidenced by the strong resolutions passed by a citizens meeting irrespective of party, indorsing Mr. Sargent’s course on the timber bill. Chas. Dunn, a Democrat, was Chairman of the meeting, and E. Brickell and B. E. Burns, both delegates to the late Democratic County Convention, with many other Democrats participated. Mr. Burns was Chairman of the committee which presented the resolutions. These resolution were signed by over three hundred residents of Truckee and vicinity, irrespective of party. <i THe Cuinesk Morperer.—The San Francisco Police Court has held Harrington, the boy charged with beating a Chinaman to death with a club, to answer the charge of murder in the sum of $15,000. This is the case in which the Coroner’s jury returned a verdict that the Chinaman died from “congestion of the brain, produced from unknown causes,’ when the testimony that he died from blows inflicted by Harrington with a club was conclusive and uncontradicted. Mining Locations. 8. D. Valentine & Co. of San Francisco, have located 2,000 feet on a quartz ledge on Gaston Ridge, below the North Bloomfield ditch, and four miles south of the town of Granitetville, Eureka township. A SHETLAND pony one week old, which stands twenty inches high ard weighs fifteen pounds, is Buffalo's pride, Some. The town made a} . with the following brilliant apostro. phe: . ‘We welcome yon, sir, as the rep. resentative of an enlightened and an . has ever been true to the interests of ithe people and of the party; as a . statesman of large mind, liberal con. yictions, and constant devotion to the . right; as a gentleman of unsullied . character and one who is above personal reproach; and asa Democrat who stood—above all other Democrats—a giant among the Gideonites . We welcome you, sir, to our midst,. confident that you will see much in ‘the appearance of Solano county that will please you, and knowing that no people ‘will more warmly welcome you than those you.see assembled here to-night.’’ The Hon. Samuel Triblecock Oates, of Red Dog, arose, and after suitable refreshment, proceeded to say that his feelings almost overpowered him onthe present occasion. It had been his good fortune on many times to receive the evidences of the good will and friendly esteem of his fellow citizens, and that, however remote might be his place in the national Valhalla or humble his station in the history of the country there never was a time in his life when he felt more pride than on the present occasion when he was receiving a weleome worthy of Chatham in his palmiestdays. He proceeded at length to give his views concerning the Chinese labor problem, and he denounced in a withering manner, the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. He opposed subsidies and favored railroads. Mr. Oates closed with a glowing eulogy on ex-Congressman Johnson, repeating the lines: ‘‘His life-long march is ended! His battles fought and won, With solemn music blended Of drum and bell and gun, Lay him down, whose renown Is an unsetting sun.” Mr. Edward C. Taylor next proceeded to read a poem composed for the occasion by David F. Beveridge, formerly of this county, in which Mr. Oates was compared to Cicero, Edmund Barre, and Lord Brougham, after which E. H. Von Pfister, Esq., of Benecia, delivered an eloquent oration on American Satesmen.— Webster, Clay, Calhoun, Prentiss, and Oates were severally reviewed in a masterly manner, and the peoration was magnificently grand. Mr. Oates followed in an able effort on the Mongolian question, and then R. C. Marshall, Esq., read the Declaration of Independence. Mr. Agnew, of the Democrat office, repeated over most of the leaders of Mr. Linthicum ,on the subsidy question and the articles on No. 13, after which Mr. Oates responded by giving his views on Celestials, with interesting anec‘dotes about the Flowery Kingdom. James W. Hawkins, of Vacaville, spoke about the purity of the ballot, and Adjutant General Cazneau exhibited a full-sized photograph of the Burnett monument. Mr. Oates then reviewed the Chinese topic . thoroughly, and the whole assembly ing Democrats of the county were . Lamont, Esq., who, after recapitu' 'his pal and both ran up the street . toward Red Dog,-escaping. Every roost in the neighborhood where this occurred has been robbed recently and this would have shared a like fate had it not been that the chickens roost in trees. near the house. The Festival. The Festival of the ladies of the . Episcopal Church will commence in . the Theatre this evening. The tathe handiwork of the ladies; besides there will be refreshment tables, and other attractions. To-morrow the . Theatre will be open all day and at noon luncheon will be furnished at 25\cents each. Gentlemen and others in town who eat lunch would do well to be on hand. Saturday evening there will be interesting exercises, consisting of vocal and instrumental music, tableaux, etc; Admission to-night, free; to the entertainment $1. Complaint Dismissed, The case of the people-vs. Robert ed with assault and battery upon Charles B. Hawley, on the 5th inst., came up before Justice Caldwell yesterday morning. The complaint was lodged before Justice Smith at Bloomfield, changed by consent to Levi Ayres at Columbia Hill, and upon affidavit of defendant removed to Nevada. The complaint was dismissed, on the ground that it did not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action. The Biggest Yet. We understand that a Grass Valley man has secured the franchise authorizing three lotteries to be held in Nevada State, on condition that 375,000 be donated for a State Insane Asylum, and will soon inanugurate the largest lottery scheme ever undertaken in the world. . It is stated that the highest prize will be $200,000 and the next two prizes $100,000 each. Thé entire amount to be given away will probably be $1,000,000.

Convicted. Ah Hin, charged with stealing a sack of charcoal, was yesterday tried before Justice Caldwell upon the charge of petit larceny. He was convicted, and ordered to appear for sentence this morning at 9 o’clock. Dienity.—The Alpine Chronicle says: Last week, at Genoa, Nev., County Judge Goff, of Alpine, had the temerity to appear in the District Court with his coat off, whereupon Judge Harris ordered the Sheriff to put him out, if the coat was not put on.

Democrats For SarcEnt.—We were informed yesterday by a prominent Democrat in the northern portion of the county thatif Mr. Sargent is nominated for re-election to Congress ‘he will receive the support . af the majority of the Democrats of this county. They say he has done more for the best interests of our State than any two Congressmen we have had. They know that, while he has been true to the principles of his party, he has been unremitting in his efforts to secure the passage of laws for the benetit of the laboring classes of California.— Alpine Chronicle, The feeling is much the same in Nevada county, as is evidenced by the strong resolutions passed by a citizens meeting irrespective of party, indorsing Mr. Sargent’s course on the timber bill. Chas. Dunn, a Democrat, was Chairman of the meeting, and E. Brickell and B. E. Burns, both delegates to the late Democratic County Convention, with many other Democrats participated. Mr. Burns was Chairman of the committee which presented the resolutions. These resolution were signed by over three hundred residents of Truckee and vicinity, irrespective of party. <i THe Cuinesk Morperer.—The San Francisco Police Court has held Harrington, the boy charged with beating a Chinaman to death with a club, to answer the charge of murder in the sum of $15,000. This is the case in which the Coroner’s jury returned a verdict that the Chinaman died from “congestion of the brain, produced from unknown causes,’ when the testimony that he died from blows inflicted by Harrington with a club was conclusive and uncontradicted. Mining Locations. 8. D. Valentine & Co. of San Francisco, have located 2,000 feet on a quartz ledge on Gaston Ridge, below the North Bloomfield ditch, and four miles south of the town of Granitetville, Eureka township.

We welcome you, sir, to our midst,. confident that you will see much in ‘the appearance of Solano county that will please you, and knowing that no people ‘will more warmly welcome you than those you.see assembled here to-night.’’ The Hon. Samuel Triblecock Oates, of Red Dog, arose, and after suitable refreshment, proceeded to say that his feelings almost overpowered him onthe present occasion. It had been his good fortune on many times to receive the evidences of the good will and friendly esteem of his fellow citizens, and that, however remote might be his place in the national Valhalla or humble his station in the history of the country there never was a time in his life when he felt more pride than on the present occasion when he was receiving a weleome worthy of Chatham in his palmiestdays. He proceeded at length to give his views concerning the Chinese labor problem, and he denounced in a withering manner, the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. He opposed subsidies and favored railroads. Mr. Oates closed with a glowing eulogy on ex-Congressman Johnson, repeating the lines: ‘‘His life-long march is ended! His battles fought and won, With solemn music blended Of drum and bell and gun, Lay him down, whose renown Is an unsetting sun.” Mr. Edward C. Taylor next proceeded to read a poem composed for the occasion by David F. Beveridge, formerly of this county, in which Mr. Oates was compared to Cicero, Edmund Barre, and Lord Brougham, after which E. H. Von Pfister, Esq., of Benecia, delivered an eloquent oration on American Satesmen.— Webster, Clay, Calhoun, Prentiss, and Oates were severally reviewed in a masterly manner, and the peoration was magnificently grand. Mr. Oates followed in an able effort on the Mongolian question, and then R. C. Marshall, Esq., read the Declaration of Independence. Mr. Agnew, of the Democrat office, repeated over most of the leaders of Mr. Linthicum ,on the subsidy question and the articles on No. 13, after which Mr. Oates responded by giving his views on Celestials, with interesting anec‘dotes about the Flowery Kingdom. James W. Hawkins, of Vacaville, spoke about the purity of the ballot, and Adjutant General Cazneau exhibited a full-sized photograph of the Burnett monument. Mr. Oates then reviewed the Chinese topic . thoroughly, and the whole assembly ing Democrats of the county were . Lamont, Esq., who, after recapitu' 'his pal and both ran up the street . toward Red Dog,-escaping. Every roost in the neighborhood where this occurred has been robbed recently and this would have shared a like fate had it not been that the chickens roost in trees. near the house. The Festival.

Complaint Dismissed, The case of the people-vs. Robert ed with assault and battery upon Charles B. Hawley, on the 5th inst., came up before Justice Caldwell yesterday morning. The complaint was lodged before Justice Smith at Bloomfield, changed by consent to Levi Ayres at Columbia Hill, and upon affidavit of defendant removed to Nevada. The complaint was dismissed, on the ground that it did not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action. The Biggest Yet. We understand that a Grass Valley man has secured the franchise authorizing three lotteries to be held in Nevada State, on condition that 375,000 be donated for a State Insane Asylum, and will soon inanugurate the largest lottery scheme ever undertaken in the world. . It is stated that the highest prize will be $200,000 and the next two prizes $100,000 each. Thé entire amount to be given away will probably be $1,000,000.

County Judge Goff, of Alpine, had the temerity to appear in the District Court with his coat off, whereupon Judge Harris ordered the Sheriff to put him out, if the coat was not put on.
