Thro’ his staunch advocacy of the people! 8 rights in the single matter of endeavoring to-check ‘Chinese’ immigri Ation, he became entitled to the unanimous support of the’ Pacific coast, and should receive it.

When the monthly gold prodiict of this district is added that of the vayious other prosperdus mining .sections scattered throughout the. count ys the result is much lar ger than even the most sanguine would susIt shows that the W ealth-giying sources are by no meais lessening.

An intense excitement at once spread through the village and all sorts of rumors were circulated.’ ‘ The slipper was small and so was the hand which had y . Stasped the bridge, and from these, which were the only,data they had. to go by, the officers éoncluded that he victim of the shots had been an American woman. Some said it was . . the mother of the little girl who ‘peddles coffee on the trains. Another story was phatit wasa washerwyomian on gne of the back streets. Men started for Boca to arrest suspicigus charagters, and others engaged in dragging the river. Those who took the track arrested Charley, a Chinese washman from Prosser Creek, and several other suspicious characters, three gf whom are now in jail. Monday, about 12 o'clock, the body of Ah Gow,a Chinese cook, * ‘was found in the river back of Mr. Giffen’s hoyse with four bullet holes in his hide, Since it has been found that the’ only ene hurt was a Chjna. man, the excitement has abated.

Owing Lto a failure on the part of the Captain to’pay for the train, a delay of . two hours at the depot gave time for the most disgraceful rioting by the hoodlums, who were in part aided by ‘the ,soldiere, the majority of whom, including Captain Dolan, were drunk, and very abusive to the Jocal officers. .Ji,is to. be hoped we will pever-see their like again, and they ‘should be disbanded for their actigns. here yesterday. ,On,theway home a tan named Wm.

Will the fools never give us a rest? ‘The most wholcsouted idiot ought.to4 know, and if he don’t we can tell him, that. the beds of all mountain streamsare full ofhquidersvary. ing in weight from fifty pounds to fifty tons, packed tight inthe bed of ravel, Under these boulders and gravel, and in the bedrock is the gold.
