NEVADA DEMOCRAT. Contests ror Sreaker.—Within the past twenty years, there have been three instances of a long delay in organizing the House of Representatives, and on each occasion the eontest was as bitter, as that going on at Wasbington at the latest dates, . In 1839-40, towards the close of Van Buren’s administration, the House, which met early in December, did not succeed in electing a Speaker until about the first of January. The choice then fell upon R. M. T. Hunter, now a U.S. Senator and professed Democrat. from Virginia, but then a Whig, and serving in the House of Representatives. Again, in 1849-50, there was along delay io the organization. The candidates for Speaker were R. C. Winthrop, Whig, of Massachusetts, and Howell Cobb, Democrat, of Georgia. Winthrop was regarded as unsound on the slavery question by many of the Southern Whigs, and they refused to support him. After balloting three or four weeks, the plurality rule being adopted Cobb was elected. The House of Representatives Which convened in December 1855, did not suceeed in electing a Speaker until February 1856, a period of nine or ten weeks, N. P. Banks, Republican, of Massachusetts, was then elected by the plurality rule, similar to that adopted in 1850, He received 103 votes to 100 cast for Wm. Akin, Democrat, of South Carolina, Deatu or Ronert Hotmes,—The late news from Europe informs us of the death, at the advanced age of ninety-five yeare, of Robert Holmes, for many years the father of the Irish bar, and the last survivor of that band of gifted men, whose genius illuminated the bar and senate of Ireland at the commencement of the present century. Ile was an intimate and devoted friend of Robert Emmet, whose sister he had married, but had so completely wibdrawn himself from polities for over fifty years, that his name was but little known, He was one of . the most gifted advocates, and his last and perhaps greatest forensic effort was in 1848, when be aeted as counsel for John Mitchell, in the State prosecution whieb consigned the latter to penal exile, ANOTHER BattLe 1N Monocco.—Among the items of European news, is an account of another battle between the Moors aud Spaniards, in Morocco, The Moors attacked the Spanish encampment, but were defeated, and the Span. iards advanced as far as Guaspellagos. The Moors were forty thousand strong, aad lost fifteen hundred men. The Spaniards lost five hundred. ANOTHER QUICKSILVER Mine.—The Jose Reporter chronicles the discovery of an extensive vein of rich eiunabar, near Livermore’s ranch. The vein was discovered by a Mexican Vacaro, who immediately went down to the San Jose Mission, and, like Esau of old, sold bis fortune for a megs of pottage. In other words, he sold his right of discovery for about twenty dollars worth of clothes, ExGuisu Axes.—The Directors of the Grand Trunk Railroad, in Canada, were recently in want of a large nember of axes, but having no faith in Yankee manufacturers, got a ecientific man to invent a pattern of the axes required, and sent to England to have the same made. in due time two thousand five bundred axes were sent to Canada, but not one of the whole number had a hole to reeeive the handle! Free NeGcrors 1N Missourt.—A bill to en. slave the free negroes of Missouri, or such of them as may be found in the State after the first of September next, passed both branches of the State Legislature. The bill was handed to Governor Stewart a day or two previous to the adjournment, who neglected to sign it, consequently it bas not become a law. AvDULTBRATION or Nitric Acip,—Dr. Robt. P. Chase. of San Fraucieco, who has heretefore been considered as respectable, was discovered on the evening of the 7th inst., engaged in an attempt to adulterate the nitric acid that is used in the mint. The doctor is an old resident of San Francisco, having lived there since 1852. Tasatrical Hit.—Not long since, a young debutante, at @ New Orleans theater, in making her first appearance on the stage, caught her foot in the carpet and tumbled full length.

Tue Grargs Crop oy Los AxogLes.—From the letter of a Los Angeles correspondent, we learn that 12,187 boxes of grapes, valued at $36,561, and 110,600 gallons of wine, valued at $113.000, have been shipped from the port of San Pedro during the year 1859. The writer adds: “There has been a considerable deerease in the amount of grapes shipped in comparison with former years, buta proportionate increase in the manofacture and shipment of wine is the result, as an offset. A large portion of the vintage of °58 is still on hand, which, with the . vintage of ’59, leaves a considerable amount in the hands of the producers. There seems to be no disposition among them to part with their their stock until age shall have ripened it so as to make the enhanced value of the wine pay the interest on the capital invested, together with a greater margin of profit.’’ Cuvnon-Burwine 1x Massacavsetrs.—During the present year, no less than a dozen churches All orders left at the Mill, or at the Sash Factory, on. have been brrned in the State of Massachusetts, Cayote street, will be promptly attended to.

Indian Affairs In Calitornia. The following is an extract from the report of the Secretary of the Interior in regard to Indian affairs in California : The management of our Indian affairs in California has been attended with a varicty of difficulties. Neither the government of the United States nor the State of California recognizes in the Indians any right of exclusive oecupancy to any specifie lands, Reservations have been ena a rare Reena oem Spenser tenes nro erage mae . following is the statement WHOLE NO. 332. Mvrver at Honey Laxe.—A man named Deming was murdered Indians at Willow creek, in Honey Lake Valley, January 24th. of his brother, A. J. Deming: ‘I came to Roopto grinding my axe. U iscovered ou the cabin, hallooed three times, but received no answer. I returned to Rooptown, raised a party and returned to the cabin, where we d my brother, who had beev shot three times, in the breast and face, with buck-shot, by Indians. I think the Indians watehed provided by law ; a large number of Indians . until they caught my brother out of the cabin, then into have from time to time been collected upon . shot him with his own gun. He them, and large sums of money have beeuexpended to establish them, with the hope that they would soou learu to suppert themselves by their own labor, and gradually become eivilized. Through the mismanagement and neglect of our employees, the iaterference of our citizens, and the apparent impossibilit system of California has proved a failure. the goverument cannot relieve itself from all obligation to make provision for this destitute population, The Indians of California divide themselves into two general classea by their respective localities, Those living in Southern California having already made some progress in civilization under the Mexieau Mission system, are scattered in smal! bands, cultivate the soil, and subsist in part upon the preducts of their own labor, For the security aud happiness of these nothing more need be done by government than to insure them the quiet, undisturbed possession of their present homes, keeping up pos sibly a single general reservation. And to effect this no additional legislation is required, The Indiausin Northern California, with some exceptions, are roving, thriftless, idle and debased ; often provoking the vengeance of the settlers, who are thus provoked to acts of violence. In this division of the State, some reservations, some retreats, mast be prepared for the reception of those who cannot obtain employment from our citizens, and thus become vagrants and nuisances to the community. Such . Iodians might be removed by force, if necestary, to the reservations, and there be compelled to labor, With an anxious desire to devise some plan of operations which promises to secure the welfare of the Lidians ou the one hand, of inducing . assistance. those ludians to labor thereen, the reservation . committed Yet . others, that it was the Pitt River Indians. A comwas the cabin, stripped of his clothing, and then thrown into the cellar, They then pl “d the about sixteen hundred pounds of flour, and other provisions, and all the clothi They also drove off bee» wie g isn, Mr. De nks they were concealed to also, as axe and were stolen during his shear ty Nsabeen ee It is not known positively what Indians the deed. Some think it was the Pintes; 5 5 g pany was formed to go after the Indians. murdered man’s name is Dexter C. Deming, from Mituesota, aged 22 years. ’ z Sue.t Isnanp, San Marzo County.—tThe. shell bank, or Shell Island, as it is called by some is, as its name implies, an immense quantity o shells, thrown up and _e continually added to, by every tide, and stretches from the mouth of Redwood Creek, southward about a mile. It is composed of small oyster shells; with a few clams and mussels, which, from the continual action of the waves at high tide and the heat of the sun at low water are bleached to an almost snowy whiteness, The existance of this shell-bank is said to be owi to the war of extermination waged by the sm crabs upon the oysters. It is said that while the infant bivalves are basking with half-open mouths, in the enjoyment of their peculiar happiness, or while listening with open jaws to some whopper” being told by one of their number, the murderous erabs pounce upon them, and by forch of claws, (not arms,) then and there feast upon and destroy them. However this may be, the shells are there, There are many hundred thousand tons of these shining remains of slain bivalves on the island, and if it were as near to a large Eastern port as it is to San Francisco, would be an independent fortune to its owners. They are well adapted to gardens and sidewalks, and would be a most excellent material with which to harden the soil in our’ streets.—San Mateo Gazette, Six Years Work 1n tre Brancnu Mint.—The and relieve the treasury fvom the support of a . following interesting statistics of the amount ofgold helpless population on the other, . would recommend, as the most practicable policy, the abolition of the superinténdency, agencies and sub-agencies, and the division of the State into two distinct Indian distriets, ion a single agent should be provided, with power to employ such assistants as may be guthorized by the Department, received at the San Francisco Branch Mint, from April 3d, 1854, to the close of 1859, are derived from an official souree and may be relied on as correct ; For each divis.

He was very much at home in Iago last night, and showed, as on former occasions, that the charaoter is in his best Jine of acting. His supple figure, his intellectual features delicately but sharply defined, his large, dark, lustrous eyes, varying in expression to suit the purposes of a dextrous hypocrite, or to reflect a satanic malignity; and his voiee, changing from tones of honest blaffness or gentle entreaty to chrystaline articulations of sinister thought— all combine to fit him eminently for exhibiting the most subtle, accomplished, heartless and overmastering spirit of intrigue and malignity which exists in the whole range of the drama.’’ Tut Bangor (Maine) Whig relates the following: : “By the last steamer from California, a young lady who went from Bangor six or eight years ago, returned.

NEVADA DEMOCRAT. Contests ror Sreaker.—Within the past twenty years, there have been three instances of a long delay in organizing the House of Representatives, and on each occasion the eontest was as bitter, as that going on at Wasbington at the latest dates, . In 1839-40, towards the close of Van Buren’s administration, the House, which met early in December, did not succeed in electing a Speaker until about the first of January. The choice then fell upon R. M. T. Hunter, now a U.S. Senator and professed Democrat. from Virginia, but then a Whig, and serving in the House of Representatives. Again, in 1849-50, there was along delay io the organization. The candidates for Speaker were R. C. Winthrop, Whig, of Massachusetts, and Howell Cobb, Democrat, of Georgia. Winthrop was regarded as unsound on the slavery question by many of the Southern Whigs, and they refused to support him. After balloting three or four weeks, the plurality rule being adopted Cobb was elected. The House of Representatives Which convened in December 1855, did not suceeed in electing a Speaker until February 1856, a period of nine or ten weeks, N. P. Banks, Republican, of Massachusetts, was then elected by the plurality rule, similar to that adopted in 1850, He received 103 votes to 100 cast for Wm. Akin, Democrat, of South Carolina, Deatu or Ronert Hotmes,—The late news from Europe informs us of the death, at the advanced age of ninety-five yeare, of Robert Holmes, for many years the father of the Irish bar, and the last survivor of that band of gifted men, whose genius illuminated the bar and senate of Ireland at the commencement of the present century. Ile was an intimate and devoted friend of Robert Emmet, whose sister he had married, but had so completely wibdrawn himself from polities for over fifty years, that his name was but little known, He was one of . the most gifted advocates, and his last and perhaps greatest forensic effort was in 1848, when be aeted as counsel for John Mitchell, in the State prosecution whieb consigned the latter to penal exile, ANOTHER BattLe 1N Monocco.—Among the items of European news, is an account of another battle between the Moors aud Spaniards, in Morocco, The Moors attacked the Spanish encampment, but were defeated, and the Span. iards advanced as far as Guaspellagos. The Moors were forty thousand strong, aad lost fifteen hundred men. The Spaniards lost five hundred. ANOTHER QUICKSILVER Mine.—The Jose Reporter chronicles the discovery of an extensive vein of rich eiunabar, near Livermore’s ranch. The vein was discovered by a Mexican Vacaro, who immediately went down to the San Jose Mission, and, like Esau of old, sold bis fortune for a megs of pottage. In other words, he sold his right of discovery for about twenty dollars worth of clothes, ExGuisu Axes.—The Directors of the Grand Trunk Railroad, in Canada, were recently in want of a large nember of axes, but having no faith in Yankee manufacturers, got a ecientific man to invent a pattern of the axes required, and sent to England to have the same made. in due time two thousand five bundred axes were sent to Canada, but not one of the whole number had a hole to reeeive the handle! Free NeGcrors 1N Missourt.—A bill to en. slave the free negroes of Missouri, or such of them as may be found in the State after the first of September next, passed both branches of the State Legislature. The bill was handed to Governor Stewart a day or two previous to the adjournment, who neglected to sign it, consequently it bas not become a law. AvDULTBRATION or Nitric Acip,—Dr. Robt. P.

The doctor is an old resident of San Francisco, having lived there since 1852.

The writer adds: “There has been a considerable deerease in the amount of grapes shipped in comparison with former years, buta proportionate increase in the manofacture and shipment of wine is the result, as an offset. A large portion of the vintage of °58 is still on hand, which, with the . vintage of ’59, leaves a considerable amount in the hands of the producers. There seems to be no disposition among them to part with their their stock until age shall have ripened it so as to make the enhanced value of the wine pay the interest on the capital invested, together with a greater margin of profit.’’ Cuvnon-Burwine 1x Massacavsetrs.—During the present year, no less than a dozen churches All orders left at the Mill, or at the Sash Factory, on. have been brrned in the State of Massachusetts, Cayote street, will be promptly attended to.

It is composed of small oyster shells; with a few clams and mussels, which, from the continual action of the waves at high tide and the heat of the sun at low water are bleached to an almost snowy whiteness, The existance of this shell-bank is said to be owi to the war of extermination waged by the sm crabs upon the oysters.
