A Postponed Wedding. The: marriage of Miss Hannah Skahaen and Clarence Shurtleff was to have taken place at 9 o0’clock Sun day evening at the residence of the bride’s mother in this cify. Mr. Shurtleff being a protestant, and it being desired to have the ceremony preformed by Rev. Father Tanham of St. Canice Catholic Church, the Bishop was applied to fora dispensation. The dispensation failed to arrive Sunday evening as expected, and it therefore became necessary to postpone the wedding. The supper and: reception had been arranged for and the invited guests were there. The best was made of the situation and. ption went ahead as though t arriage had preceded it. The visitors were pleasantly entertained, and the wedding gifts that were displayed were numerous and handsome, Yesterday the popular young couple went to Sacramento where they were made one.

Eprror Transcerrt—Senator Ingalls has been téndered a public reception by the Repubican National League of this city. It is in recognition of the service to the Republican party which he performed last Tuesday in the Senate Chamber by showing up the hypocrisy of such copperheads as Senator-Voorhees of Indiana, who, during the rebellion devoted all their energies to putting obstacles in the way of the Government. So well did the Kansas’ Senator do his work that Mr. Voorhees completely disgraced himself in the eyes of all respectable people by using language unbecomiag a gentleman, such as, “liar, scoundrel, dirty dog,’’ etc. Truth very often hurts, but Senator Ingalls has the courage to tell it when oceasion demands it, no matter who is hit thereby. F. E. Nash, general superintendent of the railway mail service has ten: dered his resignation, to take effect upon the appointment of his successor. He was one of “Mr. Vilas’ ap-. pointments. A delegation representing the Maimed Soldiers’ League was before the House committee on Pensions Friday to urge the early consideration of the bills making an increase in the pensions now paid to persons who lost an eye, arm or leg in the service. Another delegation favored the per diem pension bill. The Senate committee on Labor have made a favorable report on the House bill to prohibit the employment of alien labor on public works. The silver men in Congress are complaining bitterly against. the .unjust manner in which the’ adminstration is treating their interests. Senator Stewart, of Nevada,. has introduced a bill in the Senate which requires the Secretary of the Treasury to purchase and coin not less than $40,000,000 worth of silver bullion every month. The Senator stated that this bill involved no new question, but was only intended to compel the administration to carry out laws already upon our statute books, which had been openly disregarded by the Secretary of the Treasury, until the currency of the country has become contracted to such an extent that it was seriously felt in all branches of trade and industry. England. was reaping the benefit of the present un-American financial policy of this Government, and he hoped some time to see an American, who would put the interests of his own country at the head of all others, directing the affairs of the United States. ‘ The House was the. scene of a disgraceful squabble on Saturday last. Mr. Woodburn had just finished his tariff speech in which he taxed the Democrats with being members of the Cobden Club, and stated that the resolution introduced in the interest of American citizens confined in British Fjaila had been suppressed by Mr. Hewitt in the Forty-eighth Congress, and that Mr. Hewitt had gone to the British Minister and apologized for the resolution. When Mr. Woodburn had concluded, Mr. Bryce, of New York, got up and said the étatement was false. ‘This caused some excitement and brought a dozen Republican members to their feet, and every one of them reaffirmed Mr. Woodburn’s statement. Mr. Brumm, of Pennsylvania, the author of the resolution referred to, reasserted Mr. Woodburn’s statement and added shat Mr. Bryce uttered a falsehood if he denied it. Then Messrs. Bryce and Brumm advanced towards each other in a threatening manner, each giving the other the lie direct, while the Chairman had difficulty in securing order. Two such scenes as this in one week in our National Legislature is entirely beyond all question. If the first had not occurred in the Senate, in the case of Mr. Voorhees, the chances are that this would not have taken place in the House. Our lower House of lawmakers is much too easily infected by the example of the upper for the latter to be careless regarding parliamentary rules, Senator Stewart has introduced a bill to carry out the provisions of the Chinese Treaty. The nomination of Melville Weston Fuller, of. Chicago, as Chief Justice, has been very well received by the Republicans, but as much cannot be truthfully said of the Democrats. Mr. Fuller was born and educated in Maine, but has been a resident of Chicago for about 30 years. He is in no sense a man of national reputation, but all that is known of him is good. It is said that both the Republican Senators fromllinois are heartily in favor of Mr. Fuller. He has not yet accepted, but he will. Two: new pension bills were introin the Senate, to increase the pensions paid persons who contracted heart disease in the service, and one by Mr. Burrows in the House, to pensien all persons who served 90 days or longer in the army or navy, at the rate of one cent per month for each day of actual service. ‘Representative McKinley, of Ohio, is understood to be at work on a tariff bill which will represent the views of the Republicans. Is. will be offered as a substitute for the Mills tariff bill. : Forty-Niner. BASEBALL NOTES. Stnday'’s Games—The Nationals Have a Walkover. The game of ball at Cashin’s’ field Sunday afternoon between the National Hotel club of this city and the San, Juan nine was witnessed by a very large nuntber ofspectators. The. visitors were over-matched from the start. Although they fielded in fine style, they could not find Johnson’s up and down shoots, and his cornucepia of curves was away beyond their comprehension. The home club play* ed well in every respect, in fact they gave the best exhibition of the fiational game ever witnessed at this city. The result was a great surprise to the ,boys from the ridge. They came’ with the fond expectation of having a walk-over. They took their defeat in good grace. The summary of the score-sheet is as follows: NATIONAL HOTEL. Land,c...

Hanson as third baseman is a wonder. Canning is an excellent first baseman. Little has the making of an A No. 1 fielder. Ray’s fielding was better than his pitching. G. Fuller as shortstop was strictly business. Johnson and Land made an invincible battery. Dahneka held third down in a reliable manner. Evans held Carroll’s swift delivery moderately well. Thomas at first base was away above the average. Smith accepted his only chance and made a brilliant play. Baker wields the willow in ashape that keeps the out-field busy. . H. Fuller and Carroll lead the batting team from the ridge, but their bats were full of holes Sunday. McCullough and German wore out considerable shoe-leather, but did not ‘get many opportunities to pull down sky-flyers. _ County Assessor Bond’s little speech on the subject of hospitality led the audience to shell out about $13 in small silver when the hat was passed around, Umpire Dick Kenney of San Juan was slightly off in his judgment on some of the balls and strikes, but that was from not understanding the curve style of pitching. He wanted to be fair. : Muller and Baker made the only home runs of the game. The first named as short-stop would have covered himself with glory had he been as careful and attentive to business as he is agile. OTHER GAMES. There was an interesting game at Glenbrook Park between the Wildcats of this city andthe Town Talk Club. At the close of the eighth inning they stood eight toeight. The ninth and tenth innings resultedin whitewashes for both sides. In the eleventh inning the Wildcats made two runs and the Town Taiks none. At Grass Valley the Boss of the Roadand Auburn game was won by the former, the score being 19 to 3. At Cashin’s Field the Whitewashers of Grass Valley beat the National Hotel second nine of this city. Score 20 to 17. At French Corral the White Shirts of that place and the Red Stockings of Smartsville played in the presence of a large number of spectators. The result has not yet been learned here. The second nine of the Wildcats of this city beat the Newtown club at the latter place.

A Dead Man Found in the Waters of the Yuba. : On Saturday afternoon last an inquest was held on the remains ofa man who either committed suicide, accidentally drowned or was murdered, on the North Yuba.river about three miles from French Corral. One week ago today information was sent’ to the Oregon House that there was a dead man in the river on the Yuba county side. The body was allowed was written to the coroner of Yuba county. Up to Friday last no word was heard from the official: On that day N. C. Miller of: French Corral telegraphed the fact to the county coroner, not knowing he had any information about the affair. On the ‘same day, (Friday) Justice Soward, of Dobbins’ ranch, received word from the coroner of Yuba county to go down tothe river and hold an inquest. On Saturday afternoon nine men from Yuba county, and three from French Corral went to the place designated. After Considerable hard work the dcceased was rescued from the river. Judging from appearances he had been drowned a long distance up the river. A Chinaman who gave the first information states ‘that the body was washed down bie soap his place one week ago last Tuesduy (two weeks ago today,) but he did not have occasion to go up to the Oregon House or see any white men until last Tuesday. When the jury went. down to the river they found the dead man in the middle of the stream lodged against some large timbers which had been placed there by the Chinamen to turn the water so they could wash the river bed. The jury managed to bring the body ashore, and one of the parties who was there says that it was a shocking sight. It was almost unrecognizable as that of a human being, in such a mangled condition was it. The skull was crushed in, one side of the face was literally torn off, the jaw was broken, the teeth mashed in and the whole body was frightfully bruised. There was not a stitch of clothing on it. None. present knew him. In the remaining ear was-an ear-ring, which was the only thing which may, pérhaps, in the future, be able to give a clue to the unfortunate man. Justice Soward took the ear-ring and will by that try and. find out something about the deceased. Those who viewed the remains differ in their opinions as to the man’s nationality. Some of them thought he was a Frenchman, and some were of the opinion that he was a Portuguese. On Saturday afternoon after the inquest was held a grave was dug by the jury near the bank of the river, near the place, and there was deposited the body of the unknown. Copper Mining in Nevada County. The Wheatland Graphic says: The San Francisco copper mine at Spenceville has been shipping unusually large quantities of ore during the past two or three weeks. The working force of the mine has been increased, and more help will be.needed to carry out the aims of the mangement. The property has been recently purchased by Col. Charles Pietzsch, and 0. Woehler, and since these gentlemen have assum> ed the management thereof, the mine has taken on life and activity. They have a practically inexhaustible amount of ore in the mine, and its quality compares favorably with any in the State. Heretofore a complicated and expensive system of working the mine, and reducing the ore from the same, was carried out by the management. The new owners, however, have done away with a great deal of these jim cracks, and simplified things in a number of ways. The mine 1s how being worked to a better advantage than ever before since its establishment, and mueh is expected of it. The
new owners intend to improve on the property and will do'a great deal more work in the future than the past. New shafts will be sunk as. soon as practicable, and several new buildings, necessary for the prosecution of the increased work and supply of ore will be erected. Itisa satisfaction to know that the new management has awakened from that conduct of operations that the mine has been noted for in the past, and to feet that it will be the means of doing the communify some good.

To all travelers and tourists, whether by sea or land, it presents a Happy medium between the nauseous or ineffectual resources of the medicine chest, and the problematical benefit derivable from an umedicated alcoholic stimulant, no matter how pure. The jarring of a railroad car often produces stomachic disorders that are akin to that caused by the roll{ing ofaship. For this the Bitters is a prompt and certain remedy. The use of brackish water, particularly on long voyages in the tropics, inevitably breeds disorders of the stomach and bowels._Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters mixed with impure water nullifies it.

The Grass Valley Union of Sunday says: ‘The San Juan Times states that Hon. C. W. Cross had a proxy for a seat in the late Democratic County Convention from Little York Township, but was refused. This is wholly incorrect. Mr. Cross did not have a proxy, and did not attempt to act as a delegate in the Convention, which he could easily have had and done if he so desired. He was named by a member of the Little York delegation asa member of the Committee on Resolutions, but this was without the knowledge or request of Mr. Cross, and that was all there was of the matter. Mr. Cross, who happened to be in Nevada City that day, on his way to Sierra county to attend court, informed several acquaintances that he. no longer claimed a residence in Nevada county, How Farmer Smith Figures on the ProsFarmer J. C. Smith tells the Stockton Mail that he knew early in the}. Winter that this was” going to bea doubtful season for crops. closely observed so many wet and dry seasons that hecan tell in December, or soon after the rain set in, what the outcome is going to be. Mr. Smith’s theory is this: If, for instance, the first general rain occurs during the last. quarter of the moon in . . November and a dry spell sets in until a corresponding phase of the moon in December, the season will be characterized throughout by the same-periodicity. No matter at what phase of the moon the’ first general rain falls, if there isa continuous cessation until the corresponding phase. is reached in the succeeding month, it is ‘almost certain that the total precipitation for the season will be comparatively light or else so. distributed as to make full crops exceedingly doubtful. On the other hand, if the first. general_ rain is followed by another prior to the development of a corresponding phase of the moon, or in Apparent total disregard of the condition of thatluminary, the same will characterize the . whole Winter and Spring, which will be broken and irregular. rainfall is not great. it will be more generally distributed through the sea—— : son, thus furnishing continuous nourishment to the crops. Mr, Smith is familiar with the modern idea of astronumers and meteorologists that the moon has little or nothing to do with the weather, but the concidences. which he has noted for so many years compel him to believe that there is such a relation as establishes the periodicity mentioned, ‘ : 2} manlike mariner, Will be sold in some. seasons, whereas in others it is absent; or in other words, that in some seasons the period of rainfall is systematic, the phases of the moon having a connection withthe system, while in others’ ft is irregular or sort of hap-hazard, independent altogether of the moon’s phases. ’ Exy’s Cream Baim cured me of a . ——oa very disagreeable disease which I supposed to be catarrh. of the bestof remedies fur any complaint of the nasal organs.
