Sas JUDICIAL EVECTION: Wednesday, Octeber 18th. = For Supreme Judge, w. ro SANDERSON. sanainienel Ss * Sap Letrers.—The National says the mail facilities with the South are now as _ 00d as before the war, and fumerous letters are being received by our people from their friends and relatives in the South. **Many of the letters bear black seals and are stain ed with teats: Friends are informed for the firat time, by these sad missives, of the demise of those who have been dead for years. ‘Numerous letters tell of impoverished households, ruined forms, desolate hearthstones.’ These are the result.ot secession and treason. Such things were predicted by Alexander Stephens, and so literally have his ‘prophetic words been verified that his speech is now a truthful statement of the condition of the South. The rebels have not only brought wove and want upon them’ selves, but they have made almost’ every home a heuse of ‘mourning. Thousauds of brave’. and lvyal sons of the North have reddeffed the soil of the South with their blood and laid. down their lives for their country. This is the legacy of war forced upon the nation. If the lesson taught is heeded by the people, then the cloads will soon pass away ; the losses will soon be res paired, and the war remembered only as the regeneration of the nation. ' An Eastern correspondent, speaking of ‘the President’s plan for the reconstruction of the rebel States, alludes to a conversation in which Johoson,in reply to some one who expressed a doubt as to the success of the plan, said, “Well, we'll try this plan first, and if we find it won't work, why, we'll try some other.” We rather guess . ‘some other’ will have to be tried in Mis.sissippi. The President proposes to give the rebels a chance to make themselves good citizens, and iffthey do not do it, he will probably keep them under military rule until they come to the mark. We like Andy's doctrine. He -proposes to give the rebels a show te “work out their own sulvation” and if they fail he will step in and do othe work himeelf. THE Corron Sup PLY.—Cotton goods are _nearly as high now as when gold wae at 250—45 and.50 cents a yard being the price fur good qualities, The Cincinnati Times says:—"F ron a variety of Southern letters we deduce the conclusion that there will be avery small yield of cotton this year! In pursuance of Jeff Davis's orders the people had generally planted their lands io grain.— There will be an unusually large corn crop. which will save the people from starvation, but owing to the scanty yield of cotton, very little money. This will, perhaps, prove» good state of affuirs yet for. the South.— + Their old system of lubor is broken up, and planters will find it impossible to manage immense farms, They will be compelled to subdivide and sell. This will bring immigration into the country, and the destruction uf that wealth which was the sub-stratum of a heartless aristocracy, will conduce to elevate the masses,’ who have been hitherto kept under.” Tre Best Time.—The time of Molly Jackson, says a corespondent of the Union, in the great race at Louisville, in 1861, waa 5:289, a third heat. Molly Jackson is by Vandal, dain by imp. Margrave, and two of the horses she beat im that race are the progeny of Lexington. On Saturday Nortolk proudly replaced the crown vn the honored head of his blind sire, the Homer of the turf. The case how stands thus: Fastest four miles with Southern weight, 7:199, by Lexington: fastest four miles with Northera weight, 7226 by Idlewild; fastest three miles, 5:274, by Norfolk; fastest two wile’, 3136, by Asteroid; fastest mile, 1:444, by Mamwona, Of these horses, all save Mamyona and Lexingten himeelf, are the get of Lexington, aud every one of them, save Lexingten, are out of Gleneoe mares. “eo Trtrs ResumeD.—The Overland Stage Line coaches bave commenced te run regularly every day through from Salt Lake to * Denver.” So we will have again, says the Vedette, the luxury-of mail matter from ! _ America! The wilitary along the Tine fromthat place to Denver, and from De aver to the . Missouri, is enid to be in efficient ounditivh ANCIENT OIL WorkKINGS IN PENNSY¥LVANiA.—The existence of petroleum in country must have been known to a race of people who occupied this continent anterior to the aborigines, found here by Columbus and his followers, and by whom it must have beén extensively used. This fact has recently been breught to light by the finding all through the valley of Oil Creek, and other vil localities, of hundteds and. thousands of pits, which have evidently’ been dug for the purpose of gathering this oil, but at a period so reinote that trees 250 years of age are found growing upon the earth thrown out of these pits! ‘A very interesting query is suggested as to” Who were the people who dug these pits, and for what purpose was the oil gathered? . They could.not have been dug by the present or recent races of Indians who have inhabited that-country, for they had neither the meaus of execuling such work, nor had they any use for sueh quantities of the oil as must evidently have been taken out. These ancient workings must be considered as another link in the great chain of evidence which goes to prove that this continent was once peopled by a race of comparatively civilized people, the very name apd existence of which has been forgotten even in the ancient: traditions of the aborigines found on this continent by Colnmbus and-his companions. B 4 Breetn Loapers.—Breechi loading firearms are fast taking the place of other weapons. The French goyernment has adopted them for its entire army ; the English government has advertised for proposals for changing all its guns to breech loaders. Our own Government has adopted them, and the Swiss Consul General has issued a circular inviting breech loaders for trial in order to secure the best for the use ofthe army. The government of Switzerland offers a premium of 20,000 francs to the inventor whose ‘breech loading gun is adopted for use in the Swiss army. Several European governments have agents in this country looking up ouf {mprovements in firearms and other implements of war. gp THE superintendent of the telegraph company has offered a reward of $50 for the detection of the petson who cut the wire at Salt Lake, The wire was eut and carried off within sightof-the city. The farmers were busily engaged in securing their hay crop. The late snow has not injured the sugar cane crop as feared it might, and a good quantity of soghum will be made, SoME of the actors of Mrs. John Wood’s Olympic are playing at the Springfield, Mass., Opera House’ They append to their programme and advertisements the following unique notice, which ‘ought to prove effective ; a Servants and country people who are obliged to be at home before the close of the last act, are requested to leave as quietly as possible during the intermission, so as not to unnoy ladies and gentlemen who desire to witness the close of the performance, ~—— Lost THEIR MoNney.—We learn that some of the Nevadaus who had seen Pilot make time on the Glenbrook Course, staked their money on him at Sacramento. and lost. As Pilot did’nt begin to come down to the mark he scered in this county our boys think that the race was “put up” on them. They have learned that horse flesh is “mighty unsartain.” THE result of the survey of the line for the Central Pacific Railroad frem the Summit to Truckee river, shows that the road ean be constructed on a grade not exceeding 90.feet per mile. It was thought they could not make the elevation with a grade less than 150 feet te the mile. —Tne London correspondent of the New York Tines says that. the demand for the surrender of the officers and crew of the Alabama, which has been go pointedly refused by Earl Rassel, has been reriewed by Mr. Adams, in terms so decided that the Palmerston Government is sorely perplexed. IMPORTANT disevveries of vil have been made in New South Wales, where bituminousshale, very rich in vil, is said to exist in inexhaustible quantities very near the surface. TWo saw mills are being erected in Ex: celsior District. It is expected that one of them will be running in a week, THE EXAMinaTion —The Grand Jury ot Sierra County will meet to-day when ~Driblesbee, Carpenter, and the other parties under arrest for robbing the La Porte Stage will be examined. : at all the points where Indian depredatiotis could occur. = _ MapaMe Anna Bishop artived’ in San thie . before our readers the Jatest ‘joforme tion upon that important subject, réceived (rom a foreign source. The British Board of Trade have deemed the following “sigas’” reliable enough to warrant their publication for the benefit of marmers: _A bright yellow sky in the evening indicates Fain ; & pale yellow, signin the eveniog—an wafavorable one in the merning.

On the contrary he will soon commence a determined and vigorous campaign against the invaders. ~ {nd merchants of Austin estimate, that for the next two months, $10,000 per day “will be paid for freight on the winter stock of goods now arriving and en route for that city.
