i. . 817, ke mor Sargent and t . Mining Law. The few papets of the State opposing Sargent’s election to the United States Senate, assail him for securing the rene of the law, allowing placer tuinéts to pre-empt their tents to their lands, The law is not only heartily approved by those interested in mining now, but its passage was” almost ‘unanima indorsed by miners while it was pendwas pending, the Bulletinpublished tion the press of the mining counties either ner tactily,approves Sargent’s (3 or Pe ale of mineral published) im the most prosperous mining county in the State, and where there was fogmerly:the strongest opposition to.such a measure, nays it should become a law ‘without dslay. Its passage would stop a ‘world of costly litigation, and would increase the security and value of ' property tights, It used to be thought the gale of the mineral Jahds would interfere with mining rights; the Union now contends that-it-is necessary to protect them.. It.says that under the pen oc a have no vi unless are large quartz Soden and proabs to ‘procure titles Se ee no matter what the cost is. The bill not only met the andorsement in ‘this State, but in other Places on the const’ interested in imining it was heartily indorsed..

Stockton Republican tells of this accident. It is similar; says the Grass Valley Union, to one which happened to our friend. Warren, at.the Exchange Hotel, some months ago, and contains a lesson of caution: Last evening a waiter at the Grand Hotel made a narrow escape for his life, He was in the act of drawing the cork from a bottle of ale, when the bottle burst. and apiece of the glass entered his left thigh a little above the knee, making a cut some three inches Jong: and) sinking deep: in the flesh, just grazing the jarge fy The wound was dressed by Dr. Sposati, who informs us; that the man’s Tife was saved by, a. hairx’s breadth. _ Ifthe artery had been cut — . death Hoxitzx on Stirrrvanism.—The. following letter has been published lately for the first time: Sir-~L regret that I'am: unable: to accept the invitaiion of the’ Coundil of the Dialetical Society to co-operate with a committee for. the. investigation of ‘Spiritualism;” and for two reasons. In the first place, I ‘have no time for’such an inquiry, which would involve much trouble, and like all inquiries of that kind I have known, much annoyance: ’ Tn’ ‘the . second place, I take no intexest in the subject.
