RovuTg.’'—A. teamster acquaintance of ours
‘was over inthe Territory the other day and
relates the following. He was riding ina
~-stage from Virginia city to Carson. Anoth.
er passenger was abonrd who seemed dig»
' posed to be sociable. Passenger svon learued that teamster had come over the meuntains via the Henness road, had made a
very quick trip and was well pleased with
the route. Passenger assured teamster that
he did’nt care which route had the prefer-~
‘ence. He had‘no interest in either. but the
quickest tine ever maJe had been over the
“Placerville reat. “He was on the stage at
the time. Teamster inquired how quick
and. was informed that the trip wus made in
from Virginia ‘to Placerville, a distance . of
117 miles, in eleven hours and « quarter.—
Both agreed that was good staging, ‘Team=.
ster remarked that on his late passage across
the Bierras the boys at the, stations were
found asleep and a good deal of time was
lost in getting them out and the horses
ready. “So it was” said passenger, “when
we inade our quick trip. The boys were
not expecting us so 800n, and Were all asleep.
In one place we pounded on the barn door
& half.an hour before we could get the boys
ba
out.”
“Phe conversation tere changed. Boon
“that quick trip’ was recurred to again.—
Teamater remarked that “the vast number
of tearhs said to travel the Placerville road
toust delay stages in turning out.” Passenger said they did. “In one ‘string were
over seventy teams, when wé made our
quick trip, and it took us full two hours to
pase them.” ~The subject changed for a few
DOSE!
Gepatches from the East to the 2ist. On
the 17th two redoubts were taken, forming
part of the defenses of Petersburg, 450-prise
-onera and four guns were captured. _
Our line is now formed, facing the city
from the east of south, partly encircling it,
anid extends neross the City Point Railfoud
southward to.the vicinity of the. Petersburg
. and Norfolk Railroad. Burnside holds’ the
left of our line, Hancock the ‘center and
Smit the right. ‘The remainder of the
troops hare arrived, and will be assigned to
positions. Our troops are confident of final
success. = =
Tt was thought Lee's whole army wae in
fronto{Grant. The rebel army crossed at:
Fort Darling and by the Richmond and
Petersburg Railroad. TaN
The Herald's special dispatch says at four
o'clock on Sunday morning (19th). Baroside's corps attacked the enemy's works on
the left of our line and _ carried them, after
a severe and protracted struggle, capturing
‘about five hundred “prisuners, six excellent.
brass field pieces and two others that were
spiked. : at
The Times’ special dispatch says: We
havea report of a small porty of Butler's
forces on the Richmond and Petersburg
Railroad, making a béilliant fight. A force
four-thowsand ~ strong; advanced three ‘or
four miles directly in the teeth of Lee's
veteran army, which it cut off by destroying
the three miles of the railroad over which
the troops were pnsving as fast as the
trains could carry them. While the men .
were destroying the railroad, a force of
rebels came down and were held at bay bya
mere handfal of our, men, as compared with
them in number, until the work -was—eempleted, when-onr men retired;
against Petersburg, twenty-eight guns «and
2,500 prisoners have been captured~ Some
shells had been thrown into the ity but no
regular bombardment had commence
Hunter's and Sheridaf’s cavalry has been
doing good service Dispatches from Sheridan report »-vietory over the’ enemy at
Trevelin Station, on the Virginia Central
minutes. But teamster wanted: all. the Railroad, 12 miles north of Gordonsville, on
points about “that quick trip,” und returned
to the interesting subject again. Said teas
ster; “they tet! me=Loulw McLane iv very .
particular to have the agents of Wells, Fargo
& Co,, at every station exaniine tlie mani‘feat and look over the bullion &c., checking
the whole list ‘so that any loss mny be de__ tected and between-what parnteit oceurred.”.
“Yen,” eaid passenger, “we had a good deal
of bullion aboard that quick trip and we stopped at four different places where everything
had to be overhauled, examined and checked on the bill.” “That must have consumed
& great deal of time,” said teamster. “You
bet it did,” said passenger. ‘Not lees than
an hour at each plyce.”” “Ah,” said teams
ster, and inquired, after a few moment's musing: ‘When did you say “that quick trip”
waa made?” “Last spring, in March,’' said
the passenger. “And the roads mist have
been bad too at that time,” said teameter.—
“Badt I guess they were—the mud and
slash was six inches deep all over, and you
could'nt tell: what the color was of either
horses or coaches.” ore
Teamater relapsed into w fit of musing for
gvo minutes, when be broke out this : “My
frend, that waa a most extraordinary trip
you made. It beats any. time 4 ever heard
of. You lost ahalf hour at least yn getting
the beys out; two hours in passing seventy
teams; four hours in checking bullion ; and
yet you made 117 miles ip eleven hours and
—
aquarter. In brief, you made the trip in}.
less than four hours and three quarters traveling time. That beats the locemotive.”—
“Don't care,’ said passenger, “we made if,
and Ihave vo interest in the Placerville
route: Silence brooded-over the earth for
the space of half an hour, when the atage
stopped at Carson. Teamster inquired of a
friend who that chap was who bad ‘no interst in the Placerville route,” and was told
tie pame was ~——— and that he bad a hay
yard and corral on the road.
Tue Race.—Yesterday was the day
fixed for the trotting watch between Geo.
Jacobs’ bay gelding “Humboldt,” and “Lost
Diamond,” at the Bay View Course, San
Francisco. We are unable to learn the
reault. The race was mile heats, three
in five.
First Frac —'The firet flag raised in
Shia city with the names of Lincoln and
Jobneon upen it, hae been put up at the
Post Office by E. ¥. Bean, Puatmester,
AnoTuer New NE.—A ‘new paper to
be called the Evening Herald will be startthe 11th. Sheriday captured 500 prisbners,
railroad to Loraine Court House. On the
12th we again advanced on the enemy near
Gordonevilleand found him strongly intrenched., We earrid their works but were driven
couteach time. “Our amavunition gave out at
night, when Sheridan withdrew, crossing .
the North Anna’ river next morning. Our
loss is about 575 men. The enemy‘s loss is
beavy, including several Colonels.
The Richmond Sentinel of June 15th says:
Hunter's cavalry have raided through Neleon
county upon the line of the Charlottesville
Railroad; also on to Concord, 18 miles east
of Lynchburg, and upon Campbell Court
House, south of Lynchburg. The pufpose
seems to be to isolate Lynchburg, and pos:
sibly to lay siege to it.
Secretary Stanton in adispatch says: “Up
to ten o'clock on Sunday night no report of
operations on James river had been received.
Our losses on Sxturday (18th) are said to
have been very heavy, though no official
return has yet been made.”
' Stanton further announces that Sherman
was premature in proclaiming the flight of
the rebels from ‘their position. The enemy
hold the Kensaw Mountain as the apex of
their position, with their flanks behind Mon“day and Moses creeks. ———
General Foster reports thathe has been
informed by a rebel prisoner at Charleston
that five of our general officers in the hands
of the enemy, are kept under our fire. Asa
retaliation he asked permission to place a
like number of rebel officers of the sme
rank under the revel fire. Stanton has
given permission. :
VALLANDIGHAM.—This traitor who has’
done so much to hamper the Administ ration,
whe in Congress and at. his home give aid
and comfort to the enemy, who did all he
gould to discourage the citizens of his State
fom volunteering, barmade bis way back
to the United States. The dispatches say
he came baek to Ohie without his seutence
of banishment revoked. He is now travels
ing over that State endeavoring to incite his
friends, the Copperheads, to united action
against the government. He has been already
elected by the District Conventien of Ham.
ilton, Ohio, to the Chicago Convention. This
bold traitor should be severely punished for
setting at defiance the sentence by which he
waa banished the country. He is one of
the ablest and one of the most dangerous
men among the Copperheads. He is a
traitor to hie country, and shuuld be treated
as such.

Gp Of a crushing of two huodred and fifty’
tune of rock, during therecent week, says
the Grass Valley National, {frum the elaims
of Jobn Trenberth & Co., Grass Valley, sixteen hundred and sixty-five Ounces of gold
were obtained ;the rock being crushed at
the Sebastopol mill, down in Boston Ravine.
The sum realized from this gold was twentys
seven thousand and fifty-six dollars and
twenty-five cents, which is pretty good even
for Grass Valley. Halfeuch a yield as thie
from two Lundred & fifty tuns of rock, provie
ded the quartz had been obtained in Idabo
or over among the greasewood and alkali of . .
Nevada, would produce a statnpede equal to
that of last season for Reese river.
= Gen SUTTEK.—A correspondent having
asked the Sunday Mercury aa to the time
that Gen. Sutter came to this State, how old,
place of birth, ete , the editer replies: Gen.
J~A. Sutter is of Swiss descent, but he was
born m Baden, Duchy of Baden, in April,
1603, and is now consequently in the 62d
year of his age. In July, 1834, he emigrated
to the United States, aud,settled in Missouri.
From there he went to Oregon, and finally
arrived in Yerba Buena, (San Francisco), on
the 2d of July, 1839. He obtained permis«
sion to locate himself on the Sacramento
river, aod settled at Sutter's Fort. He wes
an extensive cultivator, and did much
toward improving the country. It was dure
ing the construction of a mill by him, at
Coloma, that goldwas discovered in 1848.—
Gen. (then Captain) Sutter, distinguished
himself, while residing at the famous Fort
bearing his name, for the assistance which
he rendered the early emigrate to Califor.
nia. Fromthe Fort he removed to Huck .
Farm, on the Feather River, which he
aecupiad up-to the-time-ofits recent lense.
THE new paper mill in Santa Cruz county will shortly be put ia operation.
Hap Him TuHere.—The Washington
correspondent of the Cineinnati Commercial
gets off the following good one:
In one of the huspitals in this city a day
or two ago, A Wounded Virginia rebel and a
wounded Pennsylvanian, occupying adjoining
beds, had a good-humored verbal tilt, as follows: ; ’
Union—"Say,-reb;-where are you from 1”
Secesh—‘I'm from Virginia, the beat
State in America” a
Union—"Thats where eld Floyd came
from, the old thief.”
Secesh—'*Where are you from Yank 7”
Union—‘‘I'm from Pennsylvania.’
old Floyd coming from Virginia, "aa long as
old Buchanan came from Peansylvania.—
Dont you wish you hadn't said anything,
Yank,’
War Ixcipent.—Captsin Dunbar R.
Ransom, (brother of Brigadier-General
Ransom,) of the Third TWnited States (regier) -AerEs at present in command of
the Second brigade of horse artillery, Army
of the Potomac, says the Chicago Journal,
relates and vouches for the following incifi
dent: One of his soldiers, in the late raid of
Gen. Kilpatrick, received a ball that struck
a testament in his pocket, and passed through
it until it reached the 12th verse of the 6th
chapter of Ist Timothy where it stopped,
and which it did not damage in the least.—
The verse is as follows: “Fight the good
fight of faith) lay hold-on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed
a good’ profession before many witnesses.”
