= Joseph Leconte, of the State Univervee Itis said the persous ameéed conNEVADA CITY, CAL. ‘Thursday, May 7th, 1874. % miracet The Oakland Spirits. A ghost commission: has been organized in San ‘Francisco, whose business. it is to “inyestigate’’ the real-cause of the recent remarkable manifestations, which occured at the residence of one Clark, in Oakland. The-committee is composed of Prof. ity, W. W. Crane, a lawyer, and the Rev. Mr. McLean, of Oakland, onthe urgent -selicitations—of all _ thé parties witnessing the mitnifestations, « As it has been insinuated the whole performance Was—the renult-of some boldly conceived plot of members of the Clark family, purely for Sensation; they feel anxiotis-to redeem themselves from the imputation, and take this méasure_to do ‘80. The evidence ofall the witnesses is being taken, and transcribed by a short-hand writer, and after taken “n full will be published for the ben. efit of the ‘Scientific: World.”’ . The members of the board exclude al members of the press-from theif sessions, because they do notdesire having a sensation made out of, their “proceedings. “There will probably be sometioney made out of thesale ofthe report of this committee, but aside from that, we can see no good resulting from it. Tow Mr. Leconte “ean determine any better, after this investigation, what_was the motive ‘power which moved the furniture as reported, we are unable tosee. “It smacks a little of soientific, and of ‘course will pass alittle more current; but the opinion of a man utterly ig. norant of the sciences is justas good, and such a man is just-as well qualified to form an opinion on‘thatanatter, For-the learned have been trying to enlighten the world for >the last quarter of a. century, and as yet they” have ‘not .penetratel the mystery surrounding the phenomena. Should the present committee report the thing a humbug, their report will be reecived as emanating from learned nen; buat-should they,‘from evidence they-cannot dis-— pute, attribute anything sunernataral to the: manifestations, their report will fall flat, and they will be denounced as fools oras being in collisuon with the family for sensational. purposes. “fhe Press gave minute particulars of the matter: just.as fully and-probably as-reliable as the ones which will be elicited by this commission. We should prefer buying back numbers of the Chronicle, having the particulars, to -the forthcoming book of: the Savans of the Bay City. as the most learned Mining at Columbia Hill. A correspondent at Columbia Hill sends us the following particulars concerning mines in that vicinity: W.W. Nichols bas been running regularly for several weeks, with every’ prospect of a hirge clean up. The mines of Hawley and Hustler on Kennebec Hill, are working, and at the last clean up were paying first rate. The-Hureka Lake Co. on Columbia Hill, cleaned up last week in Richardson's mine, No. I, and took out two hundred pounds of amalgam, which it is judged will retort. $20,000. The other mines in the vicinity, are running witha full head of water, and every appearance indigates that more gold will. be. taken out this season than for many years past. Mining werk all along the Ridgeis lively, and the miners feel well.

It was surmised. that the opium might. have been placed there by other parties, who know the real cause of his death. He was an industrious, hard working man, and owed a garden at that place. The lumber flume company are making preparations to push ahead that enterprise as rapidly as possible.

= Joseph Leconte, of the State Univervee Itis said the persous ameéed conNEVADA CITY, CAL. ‘Thursday, May 7th, 1874. % miracet The Oakland Spirits. A ghost commission: has been organized in San ‘Francisco, whose business. it is to “inyestigate’’ the real-cause of the recent remarkable manifestations, which occured at the residence of one Clark, in Oakland. The-committee is composed of Prof. ity, W. W. Crane, a lawyer, and the Rev. Mr. McLean, of Oakland, onthe urgent -selicitations—of all _ thé parties witnessing the mitnifestations, « As it has been insinuated the whole performance Was—the renult-of some boldly conceived plot of members of the Clark family, purely for Sensation; they feel anxiotis-to redeem themselves from the imputation, and take this méasure_to do ‘80. The evidence ofall the witnesses is being taken, and transcribed by a short-hand writer, and after taken “n full will be published for the ben. efit of the ‘Scientific: World.”’ . The members of the board exclude al members of the press-from theif sessions, because they do notdesire having a sensation made out of, their “proceedings. “There will probably be sometioney made out of thesale ofthe report of this committee, but aside from that, we can see no good resulting from it. Tow Mr. Leconte “ean determine any better, after this investigation, what_was the motive ‘power which moved the furniture as reported, we are unable tosee. “It smacks a little of soientific, and of ‘course will pass alittle more current; but the opinion of a man utterly ig. norant of the sciences is justas good, and such a man is just-as well qualified to form an opinion on‘thatanatter, For-the learned have been trying to enlighten the world for >the last quarter of a. century, and as yet they” have ‘not .penetratel the mystery surrounding the phenomena. Should the present committee report the thing a humbug, their report will be reecived as emanating from learned nen; buat-should they,‘from evidence they-cannot dis-— pute, attribute anything sunernataral to the: manifestations, their report will fall flat, and they will be denounced as fools oras being in collisuon with the family for sensational. purposes. “fhe Press gave minute particulars of the matter: just.as fully and-probably as-reliable as the ones which will be elicited by this commission. We should prefer buying back numbers of the Chronicle, having the particulars, to -the forthcoming book of: the Savans of the Bay City. as the most learned Mining at Columbia Hill. A correspondent at Columbia Hill sends us the following particulars concerning mines in that vicinity: W.W. Nichols bas been running regularly for several weeks, with every’ prospect of a hirge clean up. The mines of Hawley and Hustler on Kennebec Hill, are working, and at the last clean up were paying first rate. The-Hureka Lake Co. on Columbia Hill, cleaned up last week in Richardson's mine, No. I, and took out two hundred pounds of amalgam, which it is judged will retort. $20,000. The other mines in the vicinity, are running witha full head of water, and every appearance indigates that more gold will. be. taken out this season than for many years past. Mining werk all along the Ridgeis lively, and the miners feel well.
