That Man McMurray.
The exiled mau has been found at
last. One McMarray, Superintendent of the Eureka Lake Company’s
mine in Nevada, ran away and hid
in the woods.when he learned that
an injunction was to be served upon
him to stop workiag his mine by the
hydrautic —Phis * mine is
owned entirely by foreigners, and
McMurray was their only 'r ntative in California, so that he had
to be, served, and he could not be
found, hence work in the mine con-.
tinued; but when Judge Mayhew
ordered the Sheriff to stick a notice
upon the mine and serve the injunction upon McMurray’s lawyers, who
no doubt advised him to run away,
declaring that he would recognize
such service as sufficient, McMurray
finding it. no loriger protitable to
hide, came into the light, and has
tince tendered his resigaation, bat
to whom does not appear. Is, that

It has been a godsend to ‘Wevsia
county that Mr. McMurray did just
what he did. He ‘has not been
“hiding in the woods” to any very
great extent. He has only en

’ they have slipped in at front doors
he has climbed over back fences, as
one might say. For five months past
his course has been the means of
putting bread into the mouths of
several hundred families on the
Ridge who would otherwise ‘have
gone hungry. ‘The people there rive
up and call him“blessed for the good
he has done them. He is a hero in
their eyes, and justly. He has
kept husbands and fathers at work,
avd wives and children from want.

The Truckee. Gravel Mining Company has been quietly going along
for the past two years, prospecting
foran ancient channel or river bed
situated in the north-eastern portion
of Sierra county, in Gold Lake dis

prospecting, on the Mohawk side
of the ridge. The surrounding ravine or surface diggings are very
rich, the character of the gold being
very coarse,and of the finest quality,
nuggets being found weighing as high
as fifty-six ounces. The flattering

We have received a postal card
from .Felix Gillet, one of Nevada
county’s able
missioners, which we learn
that a Sait of fruit
growers, shippes, packers, nursery—
. iwen, and others interested in horticulture in California, will be held at
the Senate Chamber, Sacramento,
on Tuesday and Wednesday, the
6th and 7th of December, commencing at 10 o’clock, A. M. of the 6th,
for the purpose of consultation and
Dr. Rhedes the, newly appointed . [discussion of the most practical
means of exterminating the insect. —
pests, now infesting the orchards
and gardens of the-State; and such
other subjects as may be introduced
for the improvement_.of, the fruit
growing industries’ of California.
The Central -PacificRailroad Co.,
have kindly allowed a two thirds
rate of fare from ail thtir statious in
California, to persons attending the
Convention, and have issued instruc—
California, as follows: To sell tickets
at a two thirds rate of fare to
Sacramento and return, by trains
arriving at Sacramento on the 5th,
6th, and 7th of Decomber next; such
tickets tu be void after the 12th of
December (excepting the local rate
between San Francisco and Sacramento, which will be the usual rate,
5 days ticket, $5 00) Those who .
have succeeded in subduing any of .
the insect pests of the orchard, etc.,
are requested to be present, and
bring their weapons of attack, for
the information of those’ who are
beginning the fight. The fruit
growing interests of Nevada county
should be fully represented at the
convention.

by hia instrument waiting fora customer. .Presently two miners came
along and paused to take a look at
‘the machine.”
‘What in thunder’s that ?” asked
one of the miners,
‘It is a telescope,” said the student of the stars, “You see Venus

“Consider me in,’ * said the miner,

Marysville'’s Damage.
The miners admit that Marysville
muat be destroyed this winter if
work goes on in the mountains, Sacramento’s turn will come next. —
@akiand Times,
That is just where the Tim:s misunderstands us. Wesay that mining or no mining, Marysville is in
danger during any bard storms, the
same as it Was before the industry of
hydrau'i ing was inventel, “When
“the flood of 1862 occurred there, hycraulie mining had but just begun.
The trouble was caused by more water fallingin the mountains than
the channels of the streams below
could carry, and it had to find its
level when it got a trifle above the
edges, ‘That was not.the first time
the site of Marysville had become a
sea, either. Itis probably not the
last time a similar catastrophe will
occur, although it has been to date.
The flat upon which Sacramento
stands has also been submerged time
and again, as a perusal of the early
history of this country will show.
But there have been no floods of late
years, and why? Simply because the
hydraulic miners have built in the
mountains a dozen or so of immense
etone dams that check the streams on
their dowuward course during heavy
storms, and let out a few thousand
inches ata time when the deluge is

farmers which was to have taken
place at San Francisco this week in
hope of reconciling by soms just and
satisfactory means the differences
now existing between the people of
the mountains and those of the valleys, has been postponed till the termination of the Goll Run debris
case now on trial at Sacram2nto.
The attendence of several representative miners whoge presence would be
essential to the success of the convention is required at the trial, and
as the latter could not.be postponed
they had to ask for a continuance of
the former. No matter how the
Gold Run matter terminates, we are
satisfied the miners will keep faith
with the farmers in building the
dams on the-Yuba if they receive
any encouragement from the other
side to do so.
