Aevada Democrat, ~ LOCAL MATTERS. Muscovy Duck.—At the risk of giving our own pedigree, we have concluded to insert the articles on the “Antiquity of the Muscovy Duck,” the first of which will be found in another column. The learned author assures us that the articles will be deeply interesting to those who read them understandingly, and in order that the unlearned may not be discouraged from perusing them, he has avoided, as much as possible, the use of scientific terms, clothing his ideas in our common vernacular. it is uncertain when the next article of the series will appear; the author, however, has spoken fora column in the Democrat as often as his communications are prepared. Grass VaLtey Nationat.—Mr. W. 8S. Byrne, formerly of the Mountain Messenger, and Mr. J. P. Skelton, for several years cqnnected with the Journal and Transcript of this place, have purchased interests in the Grass Valley National, and will hereafter be associated with Mr. Ewer in its management. Mr. Skelton started for San Francisco to-day, to purchase new material for the office, and the paper is to be suspended for 2 few day, to perfect business arrangements connected upon the change of proprietorship. Attempt TO BREAK JaAtL.—On Sunday afternoon, the Jailor discovered that Burke, confined in jail for the murder of Wright, had succeeded in freeing himself of his irons, with the intention, doubtless, of attempting to escape on the first favorable opportunity. The manacles had been sawed off, it is supposed, with some instrument which had been left in the cell by some former occupant, though the Jailor could not find it. Frost.—A severe frost occurred on Sunday night, causing considerable damage to the early fruit trees. It must have killed nearly all the peach blossoms, but fortunately, not many of the trees were in bloom, and we have stilla chance for an average peach crop. The apple trees are not far cnough advanced to be much injured by the frost. Tne WEATHER IN Manrcu.—Thermometrical observations in this place, noted three times a day, shows the following daily mean and range during the month of March: —————e TAM. 2P. M. 10P.™.

HosritaAL Pattents.—During the month of March last, only four patients were admitted into the County Hospital—the smallest number admitted in that length of time for some yesrs, There are now nineteen patients in the Hospital under treatment. PostPONED.—The great matched dog fight, that was to have taken place at the Glenbrook Race Course last Saturday, was postponed, on account of the stormy weather, until next Sunday afternoon, at two o’clock. Quartz CrusHinc.—The American Hill Quartz Mill was cleaned up yesterday and day before, after a month’s run, and something over $7,000 taken out. We did not learn the num‘ber of tons of rock crushed.

The following story is told at the expense of the . rebel General Rains, of Missouri: It appears . he had a tenant on his farm who was a staunch Union man. The latter had given his notes to . Rains, and Mrs. Rains held them for safe keep-. ing. The tenant, in order to save the hay and . grain raised by him on his farm, went to Mrs. . Rains and made a delivery of the above articles and took up the notes. Meantime Rains, wishing to replenish his commissary department from the Union men, hinted one day to a foraging party the fact that a good haul would be made on the premises of Mr.—— his own tenant. The articles were forthwith confiscated, . agreeable to Rains’ suggestion—the point of the joke consisting in this, that Rains unwit. ‘Ungly sacrificed his own property for the rebel . cause, Lake BicLer.—Homer Burton and a few other gentleman came in from Lake Bigler on . Saturday night with the first supply of trout from that locality, which have been received thisseason. The snow is yet about six feet deep but is rapidly settling. They were compelled to come over at night while the snow was . frozen. The water in the lake is two feet highet than ever before known—being at least six . feet above low water mark. Ferguson’s schoo. her—a vessel 52 feet keel and 18 beam—is now making regular trips across the lake. Capt. .

Park Course, San Francisco, between the pume of Frank Wheeler’s Pioneer Gymnasium. he race was well contested and Mr. L. P. ard, a compositor in the Herald office, was . lared the victor.
