Dipx’r Know Ir—The San Juan Star says “a few nights ago, a couple of distinguished gentlemen who reside in Nevada, and who had been on a charitable mission to the unfortunate town of Dowuieville, were returning, and in order to reach home at an early hour, decided to take a “cut-off” in the vicinity of Uncle Johuny Bope’s, Striking out on a blind trail, the two travelers persued the faint path in its tortuous windings—now descending into a gloomy :anon—and anon ascending the gentle elevations that do abound in that section. The shadows of night came “gently stealing” over their path, and as the last rays of departing day went out, one of them was heard to say “Going, Going, Gong !”—They were lost ! and as they traveled on, the darkness became more intense—the bushes on either side ofthem assumed wonderful shapes—their excited imaginations formed every clusof trees into the formidable Jim Webster and his band ; the twigs that ter snapped under the feet of their horses, were taken for the sharp click of revolvers: the judicial gentleman appeared extremely anxious to reach the “white settlements’’—not that he was fearful of. his personal safety—but he thought that a seat onthe bench was preferabie to one in the saddle, under such circumstances. After wandering about for some time, they discovered, in the dim distance, the faint flicker of a light; as they rode on, another and another “shining light” greeted their visions, until, like stars in the heavens, they became too numerous to count. “Marysville” by all that’s holy !” exclaimed the judiHe had San Juan for some time; and had no cial gentleman. not been in idea of its present size and growing importance. ATTEMPTED Suicipe.—T homas Crow, the murderer of Montgomery, at Yuba City, and now confined in the county jail in Marysville, says the Express, attempted to kill himself on Monday morning. Having been put into a cell without his limbs being pinioned, he managed to tear off a splinter from one of the iron bars, with which he cut into a vein of his left arm, and let out a very Yhen found he had bled so mach that the floor and bedding were perfectly saturated, and The gash was sowed up by Dr Teed, and the blood. to the floor to prevent his doing himself He will henceforth We learn that Crow gashed his right arm also in sevhis vitality was near exhausted.

Aprovut A MILLIoNaIRE.—The vanity of riches is seldom illustrated so strikingly as inthe case of the great English millionaire, $20,000,000. conditions of the accumulation of enorMorrison, who died worth It seems to be one of the mous wealth in a single generation that the possessor shall first disqualify himself from enjoying it, and in some cases, even from appreciating the fact that he holds it. Mr. Morrison accumulated this almost fabulous amount himself, and in the regular course of his business, without any extraordinary turn of fortune; yet the following extract from a letter in the Boston Post shows how little beuefit he permitted himself to receive from his wealth. What a satire itis upon the exclusive devotion of all the faculties to the mere accumulation of property : “Mr. Morrison retired from active business several years since, without withdrawing his capital from the mercantile house, and though managing his vast funds himself up to the time of his death, with all the sagacity of earlier days, he has for the last three years been possessed with the idea that he should come to want. More than two years ago he commenced doing day labor upon a farm held by one of his tenants, for which he reeeived twelve shillings a week, and this he continued up to the time of his illness. For the last eighteen months he has been a regular appligant for relief to the parish, assembling twice a week with the town paupers at the door of the ‘Union,’ and receiving with each one of them his two shillings and a quartern loaf. His friends have indulged him in these fancies on the ground that it was the best choice of two evils. The truth is, money was his god. and the idea became at last too great for him and broke him down. And yet he is said to have made a most judicious will, and his investments up to the last are characterized by great good sense. The probate duty on his will exceeds £100,000.” f Jas. Haworth, Esq., has again been elected President of the California Stage Company. There is probably no other man in California better adapted to the proper discharge of the duties of that position than the gent)eman named. Suicipe of A Pritst.—A Catholic priest, named Cooper, committed suicide at Santa Clara on New Year’s Eve, by taking strychnine. It is supposed he was laboring under temporary insanity at the time, Inaucuration Day.—The 8th, says the State Journal, was well calculated fora gala day. The day broke bright and beautiful, and the weather was much moderated from that of the day before. At an early hour, the booming of gannon resounded throughout the city, and shortly after, the soul-stirring sounds of martial musie floating through the air, announced that the military from the Bay City were cn the march from the landing place, ‘Lhe Sutter Rifles, not being early risers, were not on hand to eseoit their brethren, as proposed, but an officer of that corps escorted them to the armory, where their arms were deposited. After breakfast, the companies formed in battalion, and a dress parade was made on Second street. The battalion consisted of the Continental Guards, Capt. Fenn, the Sutter Rifles, Capt. Eyre, and the Marion Rifles, Capt. Riggs. In addition to these, were delegations from the San Francisco Blues and Highlanders (Wallace Guards). mander of the battalion, and 1st Lieut.

The rifle corps would compare favorably with many regular troops in this respeet.

Several other A large platform, capable of accommodating the entire Legislature, was erected in front of the Capitol, which was filled with the members and their lady friends. ‘The stieet balconies and windows, opposite the Capitol, were crowded with people, anxious to see the ceremony. The troops were drawn up in line, facing the Capitol. After a brief delay, the Governor and Lieut. Governor eleet, were coudueted to the platform by Governor Johnson and Lieut. Governor Anderson, and presented to the people. Chief Justice Terry then administered the oath of office upon the Bible to the Hon. John B, Weller, swearing him to support the Constitution of the United States and of the State of California and to faithfully perform his duties as Governor of the State. <A similar oath was administered to Hon. Joseph Walkup, as Lieutenant Governor. After this, Gov, Weller delivered his Inaugural Address. He spoke with energy, clearly and eloquently, and was frequently Upon the conciusion, the Governor retired to his office and the military marched to the armory, where they were dismissed for a few hours. At the close of the address a national salute was fired by order of Adjutant Gen. Kibbe on the Plaza. In the afternoon another dress parade was held on Second street. The soldiers hada good time that evening interrupted with great cheering. A “Kickine” Guy.—During our last war with England, a number of our troops were engaged in repairing the fortifications of Niagara, and while so engaged, the enemy commenced a sharp fire, so that it occupied nearly the whole time of our forces to keep on the Jookout for the shot of the enemy, Finding that they did not make much headway, they stationed a son of the Emerald Isle to give warning when a shell or shot was coming. This the sentinel faithfully performed, alternately singing out “shot,” “shell,” until finally the enemy started a long tailed Congreve rocket, which Pat had never seen before. He hesitated, and seeing it elevate into the air, shonted—“Shot! an’ be the howly St. Patrick, the gun wid him!” WHOLE NUMB ER 36 InauGuration Batt.—The ball given at the National Theater, on the night of the Sth, says the State Journal, in commemoration of Governor Weller and the incoming of the new State Administration, was indeed a brilliant and recherche affair, and apparently passed off to the satisfaction and delight of all who participated in the gay festivities. an early hour of the evening until even From past midnight, the carriages employed for the occasion were kept going constantly to and fro, bearing their living freights of pleasure-seekers. The Theater was superbly decorated. The spacious parquette was floored over even with the stage, and covered with white drilling, while in the back ground wasa richly painted scene, representing a magnificent grotto, as if the abode of a band of fairies; high overhead hung in graceful festoons, a number of American and other national ensigns, interlaced with each other, and drooping their magnificent folds so as to show ont conspicuously in the brilliant glare of gas-light which flooded the interior of the Theater. Among the guests, which . were quite numerous, were the old and} new State officers, members of the Legislature, officers of the Army and Navy, . and many of the Federal officials from San Francisco, accompanied by ladies, The neat attire of the gentlemen, and the elegant dresses of the ladies, showed to much advantage ; and, together with . the rich uniforms present, lent an addi. tional charm to the already dazzling scene, The dances were well arranged, the supper all that could be desired, and the music kept harmonious time to the measured beat of the crowds of dancers who at all times thronged the floor.

Dipx’r Know Ir—The San Juan Star says “a few nights ago, a couple of distinguished gentlemen who reside in Nevada, and who had been on a charitable mission to the unfortunate town of Dowuieville, were returning, and in order to reach home at an early hour, decided to take a “cut-off” in the vicinity of Uncle Johuny Bope’s, Striking out on a blind trail, the two travelers persued the faint path in its tortuous windings—now descending into a gloomy :anon—and anon ascending the gentle elevations that do abound in that section. The shadows of night came “gently stealing” over their path, and as the last rays of departing day went out, one of them was heard to say “Going, Going, Gong !”—They were lost ! and as they traveled on, the darkness became more intense—the bushes on either side ofthem assumed wonderful shapes—their excited imaginations formed every clusof trees into the formidable Jim Webster and his band ; the twigs that ter snapped under the feet of their horses, were taken for the sharp click of revolvers: the judicial gentleman appeared extremely anxious to reach the “white settlements’’—not that he was fearful of. his personal safety—but he thought that a seat onthe bench was preferabie to one in the saddle, under such circumstances. After wandering about for some time, they discovered, in the dim distance, the faint flicker of a light; as they rode on, another and another “shining light” greeted their visions, until, like stars in the heavens, they became too numerous to count. “Marysville” by all that’s holy !” exclaimed the judiHe had San Juan for some time; and had no cial gentleman. not been in idea of its present size and growing importance. ATTEMPTED Suicipe.—T homas Crow, the murderer of Montgomery, at Yuba City, and now confined in the county jail in Marysville, says the Express, attempted to kill himself on Monday morning. Having been put into a cell without his limbs being pinioned, he managed to tear off a splinter from one of the iron bars, with which he cut into a vein of his left arm, and let out a very Yhen found he had bled so mach that the floor and bedding were perfectly saturated, and The gash was sowed up by Dr Teed, and the blood. to the floor to prevent his doing himself He will henceforth We learn that Crow gashed his right arm also in sevhis vitality was near exhausted.

Aprovut A MILLIoNaIRE.—The vanity of riches is seldom illustrated so strikingly as inthe case of the great English millionaire, $20,000,000. conditions of the accumulation of enorMorrison, who died worth It seems to be one of the mous wealth in a single generation that the possessor shall first disqualify himself from enjoying it, and in some cases, even from appreciating the fact that he holds it. Mr. Morrison accumulated this almost fabulous amount himself, and in the regular course of his business, without any extraordinary turn of fortune; yet the following extract from a letter in the Boston Post shows how little beuefit he permitted himself to receive from his wealth. What a satire itis upon the exclusive devotion of all the faculties to the mere accumulation of property : “Mr. Morrison retired from active business several years since, without withdrawing his capital from the mercantile house, and though managing his vast funds himself up to the time of his death, with all the sagacity of earlier days, he has for the last three years been possessed with the idea that he should come to want. More than two years ago he commenced doing day labor upon a farm held by one of his tenants, for which he reeeived twelve shillings a week, and this he continued up to the time of his illness. For the last eighteen months he has been a regular appligant for relief to the parish, assembling twice a week with the town paupers at the door of the ‘Union,’ and receiving with each one of them his two shillings and a quartern loaf. His friends have indulged him in these fancies on the ground that it was the best choice of two evils. The truth is, money was his god. and the idea became at last too great for him and broke him down. And yet he is said to have made a most judicious will, and his investments up to the last are characterized by great good sense. The probate duty on his will exceeds £100,000.” f Jas. Haworth, Esq., has again been elected President of the California Stage Company. There is probably no other man in California better adapted to the proper discharge of the duties of that position than the gent)eman named. Suicipe of A Pritst.—A Catholic priest, named Cooper, committed suicide at Santa Clara on New Year’s Eve, by taking strychnine. It is supposed he was laboring under temporary insanity at the time, Inaucuration Day.—The 8th, says the State Journal, was well calculated fora gala day. The day broke bright and beautiful, and the weather was much moderated from that of the day before. At an early hour, the booming of gannon resounded throughout the city, and shortly after, the soul-stirring sounds of martial musie floating through the air, announced that the military from the Bay City were cn the march from the landing place, ‘Lhe Sutter Rifles, not being early risers, were not on hand to eseoit their brethren, as proposed, but an officer of that corps escorted them to the armory, where their arms were deposited. After breakfast, the companies formed in battalion, and a dress parade was made on Second street. The battalion consisted of the Continental Guards, Capt. Fenn, the Sutter Rifles, Capt. Eyre, and the Marion Rifles, Capt. Riggs. In addition to these, were delegations from the San Francisco Blues and Highlanders (Wallace Guards). mander of the battalion, and 1st Lieut. Martin Reese, Adjutant. A large AmerThe drill was superb, and merits great comCapt. Riggs was comican flag was borne in the center. mendation. The rifle corps would compare favorably with many regular troops in this respeet. After the dress parade, the column marehed through the principal streets, headed by the Union Brass Band of this city, who filled the whole city with melody.

Several other A large platform, capable of accommodating the entire Legislature, was erected in front of the Capitol, which was filled with the members and their lady friends. ‘The stieet balconies and windows, opposite the Capitol, were crowded with people, anxious to see the ceremony. The troops were drawn up in line, facing the Capitol. After a brief delay, the Governor and Lieut. Governor eleet, were coudueted to the platform by Governor Johnson and Lieut. Governor Anderson, and presented to the people. Chief Justice Terry then administered the oath of office upon the Bible to the Hon. John B, Weller, swearing him to support the Constitution of the United States and of the State of California and to faithfully perform his duties as Governor of the State. <A similar oath was administered to Hon. Joseph Walkup, as Lieutenant Governor. After this, Gov, Weller delivered his Inaugural Address. He spoke with energy, clearly and eloquently, and was frequently Upon the conciusion, the Governor retired to his office and the military marched to the armory, where they were dismissed for a few hours. At the close of the address a national salute was fired by order of Adjutant Gen. Kibbe on the Plaza. In the afternoon another dress parade was held on Second street. The soldiers hada good time that evening interrupted with great cheering. A “Kickine” Guy.—During our last war with England, a number of our troops were engaged in repairing the fortifications of Niagara, and while so engaged, the enemy commenced a sharp fire, so that it occupied nearly the whole time of our forces to keep on the Jookout for the shot of the enemy, Finding that they did not make much headway, they stationed a son of the Emerald Isle to give warning when a shell or shot was coming. This the sentinel faithfully performed, alternately singing out “shot,” “shell,” until finally the enemy started a long tailed Congreve rocket, which Pat had never seen before. He hesitated, and seeing it elevate into the air, shonted—“Shot! an’ be the howly St. Patrick, the gun wid him!” WHOLE NUMB ER 36 InauGuration Batt.—The ball given at the National Theater, on the night of the Sth, says the State Journal, in commemoration of Governor Weller and the incoming of the new State Administration, was indeed a brilliant and recherche affair, and apparently passed off to the satisfaction and delight of all who participated in the gay festivities. an early hour of the evening until even From past midnight, the carriages employed for the occasion were kept going constantly to and fro, bearing their living freights of pleasure-seekers. The Theater was superbly decorated. The spacious parquette was floored over even with the stage, and covered with white drilling, while in the back ground wasa richly painted scene, representing a magnificent grotto, as if the abode of a band of fairies; high overhead hung in graceful festoons, a number of American and other national ensigns, interlaced with each other, and drooping their magnificent folds so as to show ont conspicuously in the brilliant glare of gas-light which flooded the interior of the Theater. Among the guests, which . were quite numerous, were the old and} new State officers, members of the Legislature, officers of the Army and Navy, . and many of the Federal officials from San Francisco, accompanied by ladies, The neat attire of the gentlemen, and the elegant dresses of the ladies, showed to much advantage ; and, together with . the rich uniforms present, lent an addi. tional charm to the already dazzling scene, The dances were well arranged, the supper all that could be desired, and the music kept harmonious time to the measured beat of the crowds of dancers who at all times thronged the floor.
