nf PGS ee _ Transcript. COUNTY OFFICIAL PRESS. — NEVADA CITY. wyiiee---Corner of Broad and Pine Streets. WHURSDAY, MARCH 29th, 1866. Forvey’s Resoinper.—A‘ grand newsa . “paper war isin progress just at present at, the East, in which all the leading journals hasten to take part, aud the strife is us bitter now as at any time preceding the promulgation of ‘the secession ordinances. A new peril, in fact, is‘said to threaten the nation, _ elthough, im view of the circumstance that it involvés the rights and welfare of the great done of contention, andthe privileges of the South, it might more properly be termed a spasmodie révivatof a very old iseup, For some months the attentionof; they péople of the United States has been riveted "upon the President, whose course in endeav“oring to conciliafe the discordant elements that rage und seethe around him, has subjected. him to-all manner of criticism, most of ‘which inay be justin its conclusions. Here is what Forney last suys with regard to the new: peril which threatens the _nation:. “Make a note of it; that with all the clamor against what are called radicals, who are falsely charged with delaying the . reconstruction of—the Union and with contributing to the languor -and uncertainty in business circles, none of the great monetary interests have yet demonstrated in favor of the rehabitation of the rebel States, or the admission of their Senators and Representatives on Johnson's policy. We have no delegations from, Wall street, State or ‘Third streets, supporting this demand. We ‘hear nothing from the masifavturing and agricultural. mangates of the West and Northwest inthe same direction. Why? Simply because, like the millions who hase ‘ invested in the national securities, they cannot see what safety would come to enterprise industry, capitul and generally, by introducing elements into the national councils who, without restraint there or responsibility at. home, would bave no interest whatever except in securing the payment of the rebel debt and in restricting taxation for the paymeat of the interest and principle of the national debt. Now we are inthe very frent of exactly this peril.” ‘ ——_— Tue President and his special friends at ‘Washington began to feel nervous about his speech of the 22d ult., and no doubt attempted to suppress it. The Tribune of February 24th, says: We reprint in thia marning's supplement the remarkable speech of President Johnson, delivered on Thursday evening, .as it may not otherwise reach sowe of our out-of: town subscribers. We werecompelled yusterday to print ina postscript, as it did not __ teach us in time for the first edition of t "paper. After it was put upon the wires Washington, for transmission to this city, orders were received for its suppression, and it wasnot till] o’clock that this order was revoked. The delay made itimpossible for us then to putit in type befere our usual hour of going to press. As the Government finally seen prec! to permit its publication, wo give it the advantage of the wide cireulation of the Tribune. The President shou'd have issued a “‘military order,” @ la Napoleon, suppressing its publication—or ordering the publieation of a revised copy ! Mr. DonaALD McKay, the Bosten ship. builder, has just returned: from a tour in England, and has published an article in the Boston Commercial Bulletin, wherein he states that, after having examined all the English ond French irvn-clads, he has come to the conclusion thut our vessels, ee pecially the Dunderberg, are superior to all. Tue Weaverville Journal says: “We bear that the upper end of the county is just thawing’ out, and thut the prospects for “a good miniag ecason ubowt Trinity Center wore aever better.” 7 Tre Call says a San Francisco Company are building @ fine hotel at Saratoga Springs, Santa Clara county, fer the accommodation of visitors during the summer wonths. As goon as the main building (which is 100x60 feet) is completed. the Company will commmence the etection of a large wing to the maio building. THE Meriden Recorder states that Elliott Savage of that place. lately received a patent _for a new process wf hardening iron, which he sold to Jedediah Wileox for $500,000, and that Mr. Wilcox has sold it for $2,000,000. > —=2 Tue THEATER.—The splendid company now performing at the Theater in this city, were greeted with a good house last evening, and everybody seemed perfectly satisfied that they got more than their money’s worth. This evening will be produced for the first time inthe mountains, the.elegant play entitled the *Naiad Queen,” in which thé whole company willappear. We. are confident that the mere announcement of this play will draw a crowded house. We hope 80, fur we like to see so good a company well supported by our people. ANOTHER RoupBEKY.— The National learns froma gentleman from Rough and Ready, that a robbery was committed on Tuesday morning about 9 o’¢lock, near the Randolph Exehange._The—personrobbed was riding alone, when one of the “boys of the brush” made his 4ppearance and hailing the solitary borseman, requested him=to yield up his mineral and: other valuables concerled about his person.. The demand was peremptory, and as the robber presented arevolver, the horsemanimmediately responded to the call,;giving all he had, con< sisting of ten or twelve dollars, to the footpad. In pulling eut his cvin to give the robber, a minature, probably the shadow of his love, was displayed, but the latter refused up, but invariably decline taking anythiag that cannot be converted into cvin.” The horseman thanked him and rode on, the. robber in the meantime left the road and passed “over the hills and far away.” QUARTZ NEAR COLFAX.—The Dutch: Flat Enquirer learns froma friend residing ut Colfax, that the quartz excitemeut in that vicinity continues unabated. The ledges are situated near Bear river and almost im~ mediately on the Grass Valley read. Our infofmant appears confideat that these ledges are a continuation of the Grass Valley series: Inasmuch as the rock beats a striking resemblanee, and edded to the fact, almost universally conceded, that the Grass Valley leads cross somewhere in that vicinity, it does not seem at all improbable that such is the case. Nothing, however, ia definitely known as yet, save that the rock as~« says well, besides showing much fre gold. Wondrous changes may be effected ina very short time. Who knows but what the Colfax quartz mines may yet eclipse the fa-~ mous Comstock lead ? — rr Summir City.—The Downieville Messenger learna-from a gentleman just from Summit City, that the Winten Mill lately obtained froin a crushing of Pacific rock, $65 to the ton. The previous clenn up yieldedouly $56 per ton. The California Mill is expected tu start in’a couple: of weeks. The grocery und merchandize dealere, are said to have done well during the Winter. But few people were coming in. Snow from:six to seven feet deep. Roads for hauling timber and lumber were being If the weather holds moderate opened. iMfout snow, it is thought the main roads will be open about the first. of next month. Building Jots are held about the same as last Fall) We have no doubt that’ times will be lively in the Spring CoMPANY MusTen.—The annual muster and inspection of the Grass Valley Union Guard, says tbe Union, was held on last Monday night, at the Armory, at which time the non-commissioned officers were appointed for the ensuing year. About fifty members were in attendance, and the muster roll reported numbers sixty-nine. The following are the officers of the Company : Captain, E. W. Roberts ; First Lieut. J. D. Meek; Second Lieut., Wm. Rule; Jr. Second Liett., W. H.@sgoud ; Orderly Sergeant, E. W. Nash;. Sergeants, Chas. Richardson, Thos, Pattison, R. Shackeltun, Isom Smith; Corperals, B. F. Welch, H. H. Teal. Wni. Brooks, Geo. Clarke * OO So DowNitEVILLE TRAIN TU SuMMIT Cry. The Downieville Messenger says that Garnosett & Hughes will shortly open the trail by way of Keystone to the Exeelsior District, and put on a train for the carriage of passengers and express, and as soon as practicable the route by Millon, which is sume 600 feet lower, will be opened to travel. Itis thought that if no heavy falls of snow occur, the trail for about two miles beyond Keystone can be shuveled out, and that beyond the summit it can ensily bé broken by animals. This will be a preferable route to any other by people goifg from the north side of the county. e Our AGAin—Hen. Thomas Findley, who has been seriously ill for several weeks, has sufficiently recovefed se as to be able to be out again. ei to take the picture, remarking,—4—atm-hard Minivary Bat.—The Anniversary Ball of the Nevada Light Gaard will take place onthe 18th-of next month. We understand they are-making extensive arrangements to have one of the gtandest Balle ever given in this city. It is expected a large number of representatives of other Compaties in the-county wilt be on-hand. ~~ ANOTHER Rich STARIKE.—Ragsdale & Company have struck an immensely rich ledge, about one .mile southwest.of the Globe Ranch, near the celebrated Stockton lode. They have been taking it out rich for several days past, but on Saturday last “struck it richer than ever, and touk cut over $1,000 in a few hours : For THE East.—Jvubn R. Ridge, editor of the Grass Valley National, left for-the Atlantic States yesterday. He goes to Washington on. business connected with-the Cherokee Nation. APauis-lettersayathat the gold meda} for Mrs:.Lincoln, subscribed for in France, is to be presented to her by M.-Albert, nember of the Provisional Government of 1848, ‘who has been selected by the Cuinmittee to go to the Unitéd States for that purpose. & THe ARMY—In January last the army numbered over a hundred und fifty thousand Tne Tribune'says Pollard has resumed the pubheation of the Richmood Examiner. In his recent iuterview he. says that the President convinced him. that he was the true friend of the South. Pollard’s first issue W filled with abuse of Congress. ‘hue Tribune says if anybody says the President did’nt celebrate Washington's Birthday withspirit we murt consider him mistaken. = rie cy) REsuLuTIoNS resenting the President’s insult to Setiater-Sumner have bern read and referred in the Massnchusetts LegislaARRIVALS AT THE NATIONAL EXCHANGE HOTEL.

The majorities are very strung —77 to 25 in the Houge, and 21 to 5 in tlie Senate. They know rebels out that way, and don't regard them as properly reeunstructed, as yet. THE Stockton papers represent the financial prospects of that city as gloomy enough. The assessment on preperty, real and personal, for the current year, comes very near $100,000 short of what it wis in 1865, while the necessity fur an increased revenue is year
after year increasing. InN a late severe storm in Wisconsin, six menare said to have been frozen to death while seated ina sleizh. Also, three men who had gone to the Woo 's with their teams.

GiRLs now attend the ladies’ window at the Chicago Post office. Cause, to stop firting with the clerks. = THE Ohio State Journal says that, so far as is kuown, no single Ohio journal of the Union party sustains the veto of the Freedmen’s Bureau bill. COLONEL Seth Williams, the well-known Adjutant-General of the army of the—Petomac, has become insane; and been sent to the Asylum at Augusta, Maine. THE bank of Liberty, Clay county, Mo., was robbed of $72,000, and a boy who gave the alarm was ehet by the robbers and instantly killed. ANOTHER pork poisoning ease recently occurred in St. Louis. The wife and son of a bricklayer named Essig were taken quite ill after eating of diseased pork, and were sinking rapidly when medical aid arrived. f 4 THE proprietors of the Pioneer Woolen Mills have filed a certificate that the capital stuck had beea increased from $150,000 to $300,00, and the original capital all paid ap. “THE Massachusetts House of Representatives refused to receive a resolution thanking the President for his vetu message by a vote of 90 to 18.
