The Indians on Nome Lackee Reeervation, have bad a glorious rabbit buat lately, having caught and killed during a few hours, handreds of these animals, The method adopted by the bunters is very simple. A number of nets are procured and stretched between stakes, which are planted in the ground similar to fence posts. A space about equal to the length of the net is left between each one, which is guarded by parties placed there for that parpose. Another party scours the brush, which frightens the rabbit and it immediately tries to escape. The first effort isto try aud get through the space, but itis met there by too much opposition, It then makes for the net in which it gets entangled, and before it can extricate itself it is dispatched with a club. A very singular proceeding, or rather a failure to proceed, on the part of the Coroner of Santa Clara county, is related by the San Jose Tribune. It appears that the body of a man was found floating in the slough near Alviso, and the Coroner was notified but declined acting in the premises, on the presumption that the law considers only such subjects as have been felonivusly killed, to be proper subjects for an inquest, whereas this man had in all probility fallen into the water while in a state of intoxication, A Justice of the Peace held an inquest upon the body and it was ascertained that the name of the deceased was Alexander Gardener, The cause of bis death was not found, A tragical affair occurred at San Jose, on Tuesday, Feb, 29th, growing out of the late murder of Paul C.

Crosby, a witness for Seal, and who was also implicated in the mur der, was shot and inslantly killed by Thomas Shore, a brother of the murdered man, Mr. L P. Ferguson was also killed by a stray bullet. . The testimony before the Cornorer’s jury, as to whether Crosby or Shore fired the first shot, is conflicting. Officer Blitz, says the S. F. Times, saved the lives of a lady and her child on Sunday, by springing at the bead of a runaway horse attached to a buggy, near the corner of Second and Market streets, and arresting bim in his} mad career. But for this gallant act, the lady and child must have been seriously injured or killed. The grateful lady offered ber preserver a handsome pecuniary reward but be refused it, satisfied with having preserved the lives of two fellow beings, The Marysville Democrat says that parties ia that city are setting on foot an enterprise which has for its object an immediate telegraphic connection between Marysville and Nevada, via Timbucktoo, Rough & Ready and Grass Valley. At present, electric commanication between the two places must be had all the way round by Sacramento, which is very inconvenient. There isno douyt that a line of this kind would pay largely. On the 25th ult., the body of John Mullen was found washed ashore, in front of Knight’s Ferry, on the Stanislaus river. Some time ago, he wandered off in a (it of delirium tremens, and it is supposed that while in that condition be jumped into the river, Ile caine from Philadelphia—where be has a brother residing—in 1850, or near that time, Louis Martigny, the Frenchman who jumped from the U.S. Court building, at San Francisco, some two months age, falling a distance of sixty feet, and landing upon a pile of rocks, .

The Shasta Courier thinks that our Iegislators, instead of removing the capital, would act more wisely by removing themselves from it as soon as possible, ’ A man by the name of Nathan Moreler was robbed of $800 worth of jewelry, on board the Golden Age, on the late passage of that steamer from Panama to San Francisco, It is estimated that the production of wool, this year, in Tehama county alone will amount to 30,000 pounds, European News. Our dates from Liverpool are to Feb. 20th. The news is warlike, A rumor prevailed that Rnesia was concentrating troops on the frontiers of Moldavia; and it was asserted that in the event of a war with Italy, an army of 200,000 men will be posted in Russian Poland, Baron ge de Rothschild was returned as member of Parliament for Hythe, unopposed. Mr. Salomons had also been elected, A Paris correspondent says that peremptory orders had been given to the French chambers of commerce to abstain from giving expression to their ardent wishes for peace, The French army at Lyous bad been put on a war footing. The aoti-Austrian fulminations of the Paris press bad been discontinued, whereupon the *“rentes’’ rose; but the rise was not fully sustained. The king of Sardinia is determined on making an attempt to drive out the Austrians and making his kingdom strong enough to resist both that power and France, Hv contemplates uniting under bis rale Venice and at least twelve million subjects. Tue Repunuic or Lerrers.— The recent award of the committee ou the Burns Prize Poems, in England, tends to prove the old maxim, that the realm of letters is a republic, and vot a monarchy or an aristoerady, The author of the successful poem was Miss Isabella Craig, a young lady of Edinburg, who bas for some time supported berself by ber pen.

It Is a rich aud rare scene, avd the events represented possess a historic interest, and an artistic merit, unequalled by aby collection ia the country.

Perr sas WHOLE NO. 287. ery Several gentlemen in our town, on Monday night last, near mida enjoyed the extrapores . tee, of witnessing a most beautiful and perfect lavar rainbow, — , A tuner rainbow is of very rare occurrence, ary Ter Polecane anne firat te make a note non, For more than a hundred cars Brier. to, ths a lagie of the last century, not more than two or three lunar raintiowe were described with accuracy. During his life-time. Professor Dick was affo only two opportunities to witness the cu phenomenon. : The lunar rainbow is in @ manner precisely similur to that in which the sua or day rainbow is produced, It is uceed by the rays of the moon—the reflected rays of the sun—striking on a rain cloud. Owing to the raye of light from the moon being weak, the bow reflected appears perfectly white, The bow is not separated into the prismatic colors of the eun upon a rain cloud. The lunar rainbow can never be uced except when the moon is near its fu ‘VEY Those who were so fortunate as to witness the rare phenomenon on Monday ni say that the moon was in the south east, that the perfect bow which formed rested, apparently, ove foot near the mouth of Spring creek, and the other between the county hospital and the Western Divide, In appearance it was prrely white, After looking at it for some time—about twenty minutes—it commenced fading at the western foot. The cootinuance of the bow was not carefully noted, There is, perbaps, no phenomena of the heavens more rare than the lunar rainbow. They occur so seldom as to be worthy of particular mention, From the descriptions we have received, we are satisfied that those tlemen who saw the lunar rainbow on Monday night witnessed one of the most beautifal pictures ever painted in the clouds—that it was seen in its freshness and mild fallness—a chaste and beautiful picture of the night that but few eyes have ever been allowed to behold.—Shasta Re. publican, 26th ult, Horrisie Murper.—-The remains of a woman by the uame of Maria Malitesta, were found in a tunel about balf a mile west of Jamestown, on the 20th ult, They were oearly consumed by tire, She is supposed to have been murdered on the Sth of January, by one Joseph Ler. tori, au Lialian, who, the day before, had paid olf @ mortgage which she held over bim for property in Italy.

The Indians on Nome Lackee Reeervation, have bad a glorious rabbit buat lately, having caught and killed during a few hours, handreds of these animals, The method adopted by the bunters is very simple. A number of nets are procured and stretched between stakes, which are planted in the ground similar to fence posts. A space about equal to the length of the net is left between each one, which is guarded by parties placed there for that parpose. Another party scours the brush, which frightens the rabbit and it immediately tries to escape. The first effort isto try aud get through the space, but itis met there by too much opposition, It then makes for the net in which it gets entangled, and before it can extricate itself it is dispatched with a club. A very singular proceeding, or rather a failure to proceed, on the part of the Coroner of Santa Clara county, is related by the San Jose Tribune. It appears that the body of a man was found floating in the slough near Alviso, and the Coroner was notified but declined acting in the premises, on the presumption that the law considers only such subjects as have been felonivusly killed, to be proper subjects for an inquest, whereas this man had in all probility fallen into the water while in a state of intoxication, A Justice of the Peace held an inquest upon the body and it was ascertained that the name of the deceased was Alexander Gardener, The cause of bis death was not found, A tragical affair occurred at San Jose, on Tuesday, Feb, 29th, growing out of the late murder of Paul C.

Ferguson was also killed by a stray bullet. . The testimony before the Cornorer’s jury, as to whether Crosby or Shore fired the first shot, is conflicting. Officer Blitz, says the S. F. Times, saved the lives of a lady and her child on Sunday, by springing at the bead of a runaway horse attached to a buggy, near the corner of Second and Market streets, and arresting bim in his} mad career. But for this gallant act, the lady and child must have been seriously injured or killed. The grateful lady offered ber preserver a handsome pecuniary reward but be refused it, satisfied with having preserved the lives of two fellow beings, The Marysville Democrat says that parties ia that city are setting on foot an enterprise which has for its object an immediate telegraphic connection between Marysville and Nevada, via Timbucktoo, Rough & Ready and Grass Valley. At present, electric commanication between the two places must be had all the way round by Sacramento, which is very inconvenient. There isno douyt that a line of this kind would pay largely.

Mr. Salomons had also been elected, A Paris correspondent says that peremptory orders had been given to the French chambers of commerce to abstain from giving expression to their ardent wishes for peace, The French army at Lyous bad been put on a war footing. The aoti-Austrian fulminations of the Paris press bad been discontinued, whereupon the *“rentes’’ rose; but the rise was not fully sustained.

Tue Repunuic or Lerrers.— The recent award of the committee ou the Burns Prize Poems, in England, tends to prove the old maxim, that the realm of letters is a republic, and vot a monarchy or an aristoerady, The author of the successful poem was Miss Isabella Craig, a young lady of Edinburg, who bas for some time supported berself by ber pen.

During his life-time. Professor Dick was affo only two opportunities to witness the cu phenomenon. : The lunar rainbow is in @ manner precisely similur to that in which the sua or day rainbow is produced, It is uceed by the rays of the moon—the reflected rays of the sun—striking on a rain cloud. Owing to the raye of light from the moon being weak, the bow reflected appears perfectly white, The bow is not separated into the prismatic colors of the eun upon a rain cloud. The lunar rainbow can never be uced except when the moon is near its fu ‘VEY Those who were so fortunate as to witness the rare phenomenon on Monday ni say that the moon was in the south east, that the perfect bow which formed rested, apparently, ove foot near the mouth of Spring creek, and the other between the county hospital and the Western Divide, In appearance it was prrely white, After looking at it for some time—about twenty minutes—it commenced fading at the western foot. The cootinuance of the bow was not carefully noted, There is, perbaps, no phenomena of the heavens more rare than the lunar rainbow. They occur so seldom as to be worthy of particular mention, From the descriptions we have received, we are satisfied that those tlemen who saw the lunar rainbow on Monday night witnessed one of the most beautifal pictures ever painted in the clouds—that it was seen in its freshness and mild fallness—a chaste and beautiful picture of the night that but few eyes have ever been allowed to behold.—Shasta Re. publican, 26th ult, Horrisie Murper.—-The remains of a woman by the uame of Maria Malitesta, were found in a tunel about balf a mile west of Jamestown, on the 20th ult, They were oearly consumed by tire, She is supposed to have been murdered on the Sth of January, by one Joseph Ler. tori, au Lialian, who, the day before, had paid olf @ mortgage which she held over bim for property in Italy.
