LOCAL MATTERS,
BRECKINRIDGE Meetine.—Judge D. 0. .
Shattuck, candidate for Congress on the Dixie
ticket, addressed the citizens of Nevada, or such
as chose to hear him, in front of Grimes’ saloon, .
yesterday evening. The audience was not
large, but the speaker was listened to attentiveJy, and at the close there was a faint applause.
He admitted, during the forepart of his speech, .
that States had no constitutional right to se.
cede; but they had a natural right of revolu.
tion, and in case they attempted revolution the
Federal Government had the constitutional
right to make war upon them, to restrain the
revolutionists. He did not think it was policy, )
however, for the Government to make war upon
the seceded States, though it had the right; and
in order to show that it was bad policy, hecom.
menced relating the history of the country for .
the past century or two. This portion of his .
speech we didn’t stop to hear.
Fata AccrDENT.—Coroner Henry held an
inquest, yestei day, on the body of aman named
Joseph McDougal, who was killed at Grass .
Valley. It appears that he was engaged in
putting a force pump in a well, which was
some fifty or sixty feet deep, and was at work
in the bottom with a furnace of burning charcoal, The fumes of the coal began to affect
him, and he called out to his assistant to draw
him up. When neur the surface he is supposed
to have fainted, and fell back, killing him instantly.
MrDICAL.—It gives us pleasure to announce
that Dr. Nichols, from San Francisco, purposes
locating in Nevada. He left San Francisco on
account of the cold winds and fogs that prevail
there, the climate of Nevada being all he could
wish; and we sincerely hope that he will find
encouragement enough to induce him to remain
withus. Dr. N. is a graduate of Harvard University, well posted in the old and new schools
of medicine, and isa gentleman and scholar.
His card may be seen in another column.
SicknEss.—There has been an unusuaj
amount of sickness in Nevada county for a
month or two past. In this place, the scarlet
fever, measles, and whooping cough have been
raging among the children; while in Giass
Valley the sickness is mostly among the adult
population. Quite a number of deaths have occurred at the latter place, within the past two
or three weeks, and we are informed that there
were four deceased persons in the town yesterday morning.
County Business.—The Board of Supervisors have been engaged all the week, in equalizing the Assessment Roll, and attending to
other county business. Yesterday and to-day
the election precincts were fixed, and the Inspectors and Judges appointed. The list of
precincts will be found in another column. The
Board will meet again on Monday, to attend to .
some matters connected with the assessment, .
and will complete the work that day.
ATLANTIC MONTHLY.—We are indebted to .
Mr. Welch, of the Pioneer Book Store, for the
August number ofthe Atlantic Monthly. Among
the interesting articles im this nurmber, are
Reminiscences of Stephen A, Douglas, anda
sketch of Major Theodore Winthrop, who fell
in the fight at Big Bethel.
8Lu1cE Ronpery.—Some twenty sluice boxes, in the claims of Stewart and others, (known
as the Irish Co., on Manzinita Hill, were cleaned up by robbers last Wednesday night. The
sluices are supposed to have contained about
1,000.
Gas.—The gas will be let into the pipes for
the first time this evening. We are informed
that thirty or forty houses will be lighted with
gas this evening, and the fixtures are being
rapidly put in for lighting others.
SrzaKkino.—F. Pixley and W. H. Weeks
azeannounced to speak in Nevada this evening.

Recent explorations bave quite exploded
the old pretence that the largest cities
the world would be found in the Orient.
Toere is vothing, after all either io China
or Japan, or anywhere else, that can vie
with Loudon, in point of size, population,
manufactures aud commerce. Paria, in
deed, comes nighest Louden in these and
other respects; bat she is, nevertheless,
some distance behind the elder city. By
the ceusus, just made, the population of .
Londun is stated at 2 800000, showing an
increase within about six years Of nearly
500,000 persons.
Gen. Soprr wae applied to by the Preeident of the United States to recommend
tome one of the army officers qualified to .
fill the place made vacaut by che death of .
General Jessap. General Scott gave him)
four names—Colonels R. H. Lee. A. 8S.
Johuson, J. Johnson and Smith. The first .
three are in the Southern army ; the latter, .
Col. Smith, is in the Northern army. J.
Johnson, who lately commanded the troops .

Founp Dean.—The Placerville Republican .
‘ays that J. Felsenthal, a well known resident .
that city, proprietor of a saloon, was found
upon his counter last Saturday. He had .
a difficulty with his wife the night before, drank .
4 pint of raw gin while excited, and was found .
dead, as above described, the next morning. .

Usion Democratic Mextixe ix Sonoma,—
A correspondent of the Herald writing from
Petaluma, Ancust 11, Says;
So great has been the cha: in sentiment
and enaey during theslast tees four months
amongst the masses of the people, that it is really ditticult to judge of the true political position of pews Barly cp In this community
however, the Union feeling is strong.
Last evening, the Hon. Jos. C. McKibben addressed a large and attentive audience at Musical
Hall. It was the first meeting called by the
Union Democracy, and it was pleasant to see
the strong manifestations of loyalty to the
Union. People are beginning to see that radical opinions are not condusive to the welfare of
the nion, and that men of extreme views are
exceedingly dangerous as partisan leaders. I
am satisfied that the Union Democratic party,
now free from all radicalism and standing firm
upon the Constitution and the Union, will be
victorious in the coming contest. McKibbin
spoke well, better than I ever heard him before.
e left a good impression upon all who listened
to him, and if any were wavering in their fidelity, I am sure they left convinced that it was
their duty to sustain their country in this her
hour of peril.
J. B, Southard then addressed the audience
in his usual eloquent and felicitous style. With
a few more such efforts, Sonoma county wilt
assuredly be redeemed from Secessionism on
the one hand and Republicanism on the other.
We, however, need all the assistance we can
get, and we trust our friends will not be like
Gen, Patterson, too far away when needed.
Keportep Deatu or A. H. Srevexs.—
The Louisville Journal, of June 26th contains the following :
Hon, Alexander H. Stevens, Vice President
of the Southern Confederacy is dead. He was
an abler man and a greater statesman than he
has left behind him in the Confederate States.
He resisted secession until he saw he could not
resist it successfully. Well had it been for his
fame if he had not yielded even then.
From Texas.—Sixty wagons, loaded with
immigrants and their goods, arrived at Los Angeles from Texas, on the 29th ult.

SAND’S SARSAPARILLA.—The popalarity acquived by this truly invaluable medicine is
as extended as it is richly merited. If the tens of
thousands of scrofulous ulcers which have been cicatrized and permanently healed by this extraordinary
antiseptic had each a tongue, a chorus of testimony
would attest its efficacy, not only ia serofula and ali
external manifestations of disease, but ia dyspepsia,
bilious complaints, general debility and the various
internal disorders in which it affords speedy and lasting relief.
