Yesterday morning, between 1 and 2 o'clock, John Hieber, hostler at the Telegraph Stage Co’s stable, succeeded in eapturing a Chinese chicken thief, while he was making away with his booty. The stage being late, John laid down for a light sleep, and aboulgl o'clock he awoke and heard a chicken “squork.” To this he paid no attention, but the “squork” being repeated, John went to the window, ard after: taking a glass of lager, hearing a great “quacking” among the ducks, he con_ eluded somebody was in the hennery. “On looking out he saw the form of a man, who was evideftly engaged in catching chickens. John went out, taking a station near the fence on the outside, having first armed himself with a hatchet. In a moment or two a Chinaman’s head popped over. and _ Hieber went after it, catching the Chinaman by the que just ashe was getting overthe fence. In the mean time the Chinaman had dropped his bag and all the chickens but two got: out. On being caught he made a lively resistance, and felt about his belt as if fora weapon. On looking over the ground after daylight a sharp hatchét was found, which had been dropped by the Chinaman in the attempt to escape,and which he evidently intended to use. Hiebert was too strong for him, and the Chinaman then began begging, saying, “Me heap poor, no likee steal, let me go, me:never come again,” but. Hieber did’nt see it. After locking him securely in the granary, he reported to -H. L.Dawley, Special Policeman, who took him in charge, and yesterday filed a complaint against him for petit larceny. : TuE I. O. U. Leper—The L. 0. U. ledge is located on Hitcheock’s Ravine, ona line with the Pittsburg mine.— When last worked, the shaft was.sunk. to the depth of forty feet, and some rock taken out that paid ashighas $40 to the ton. The ledge has not been worked for some time, but proposals are now advertised fora contract te dommence a new shaftand sink to the depth of 80 feet upon the ledge. After the shaft is down 100 feet, it is proposed to put uf pumping and hoisting works upon the mine. We hope to see the I. 0. U. come out with any amount of gold to ite owners. ‘ TRIAL oF Cuas. ''HOMPSON.—This case in which: Thompson was charged with attempt to rob a man named Berry, was on trial before the County Court yesterday, W. W. Cross, District Attorney, prosecuting and J.C. Palmer defending. The testimony showed that. Thompson was)seen by two witnesses in the rear of a saloon at Truckee, going through the pockets of Berry, and afterwards beating him and demanding “where that silver was.” Other witnesses testified as to the parties being together previous to the alleged attempt to rob. The defendant offered no testimony, and after argument the case was submitted to the jury, who after a short time returned. & verdict of guilty. : —., FurTyER REDUCTION oF Fares.—It’ seems’ that the rivalry existing be tween Sacramento and San Francisco, is about to prove a great benefit to the traveling public. As will ‘be seen by -the advertisement of the California Pacific Railroad Company, the fare on the Vallejo route has been reduced to three dollars. This, in connection with the shortness of the route, will no doubt attract a proportionate share of the travel. A reduction has also been made in second class fare from three to two dollars, ‘Ciance FoR ConTRactors.— The 10 U Company want proposals to sink 4 shaft on their quartz ledge, which i8 situated near. itchcoci’a, Ravine, in this township, 80 feet deep perpendicular, and three feet by five feet in the clear from top to bottom—well timbered.

ANOTHER ACCIDENT.—The up bound train on the Western Pacific Railroad ran off the track at San Leandro Junction,a few miles west of where the acci‘dent occurred a week ago Sunday. At this point the Western Pacific connects with the Alameda road, and it is sup posed that the switch was left open. ‘ express and baggage car after it, plowing up the track for some distance;.and at last upsetting. The fireman was badly injured. Noneof the passenger cars were thrown off, but the accident occasioned a delay of about six hours, and*the mailjs, as a consequence, did not reach this city until midnight.

We deem a reply. quite unnecessary = to a Card, published by our opponents, in Tuesday’s TRANSCRIPT, as our Spec } ial Notice, signed by C. Sutton, Jr. him. self, (the only firm who sell the genuine Cape Ann Oiled Rubber Goods) proves to. the public the truth of our assertions, and of the falsehoods of our opponents, from the beginning to the end of this discussion. Well may they say BANNER BROTHERS are spitting fire. They have made it so-hot for the Clothing Dealers in this city as to scat,’ ter them all over the State and even some take to the mountains to cool off from whence they have no desire to return. They well know how perseveringly the BANNER BROTHERS keep the Clothing War a-going and intend to continue to make it hot for anybody who try to oppose them “if it takes all Summer.” Our competitors seem to forget that they first used slanderous language, uatreths and misrepresentations regarding our Agency. ‘To correct these falsehoods we used such language as the statements of our opponents deserved. BANNER “BROS., alone, are the ONLY AGENTS for the Cape Ann Oiled Rubber Goods for this City and County. We: will state, for
the benefit of all “to whom it may concern,” that we have a letter trom Mr. C. Sutton, Jr. stating that the ten Coats . Our opponents blew so much about, for which they have a bill, were surreptitiously obtained and that hereafter he will be on the look out. We have no respect for our competitors. They en. deavored by slander, falsehood and trickery to mislead the public with whom they must have lost all confidence. ue BANNER BROTHERS. ee SPECIAL NOTICE. To the People of Nevada City and County : ee THIS IS TO CERTIFY THAT BANNER BROS. ARE THE ONLY AGENTS TO SELL OUR CAPE ANN OILED RUBBER GOODS.— te NONE OTHERS ARE GENU.INE BUT THOSE COMING, FROM THEM. CHAS. SUTTON, Jr. San Francisco, Nov. 19th, 1869. == = « pa) A Household Elixir adapted to all Climates, It would be a happy thing for the world if all the excitants at present used in the practice of medicine, could be swept out of existence, and HOSTETTER’S*8TOMACH BITTERS substituted in their place. In California it seems possible that this desirable sub stitution may one day be accomplished. Certain.it is, that the GREAT VEGETABLE TONIC is gradually displacing them, and that the confidence of the people in its eanitary and saving properties, increases with every passing year. ‘Figures that ean not lie,” show this to be the fact. No medicinal preparation émjoys the like popularity ‘among all classes and condi, tions, in every sectionof the State. As an appetizer, a-general invigorant, a remedy forindigestion, a cure for intermittent and remittent fevers, a gentle cathartic, a specific for flatulency and sour stemach, a gentle diuretic, a nervine, a blood depurent, a specific for sick headache, a mild anodyne, and, above all, a8 A PROTECTION AGAINST EPIDEMICS, it is unquestionably the STANDARD MEDICINE of the whole Pacific territory. In the towns and cities it is literally a HOUSEHGLD STAPLE, Mothers believe in it. They find ita “present help in time of troubie,’’—a safe and pleasant remedy for the various ailments to which they are exclusively subject. -Men_ believe in. it, because: it refreshes and invigorates the body and the mind, and tones both without exciting either. . ae sdalaeedaiedel ONE PER CENT.
