Aevada Democrat.
LOCAL MATTERS,
Hangas Corpts.—The habeas corpus case
of James Mooney was examined before Judge
Belden yesterday forenoon, and resulted in his
discharge. Mooney was arrested on the complaint of one Wagot, whom he had chased with
a knife and threatened to kill. Justice Smith,
who issued the warrant of arrest, after hearing
the testimony, ordered Mooney to give bonds
to keep the_ peace, andin default, committed
him to jail. When brought before Judge Belden, on habeas corpus, there being some defect
in the commitment, he summoned the prosecuting witness and re-examined the case. The
prosecutor at first swore the case straight
through, and the evidence was strong enough
to holdthe prisoner in jail forever; but on beimg cross-examined, he admitted that there
was no danger of Mooney hurting him unless
he got drunk again, and he was rather of the opinion that Mooney would drink no more.
On this evidence, the prisoner was set at liberty.
Surrirr’s SALES.—The Journal, we notice,
has been endeavoring to get a portion of the
patronage of the Sheriff’s office, but it seems
has not met with much success so far. We
tried the same thing soon after the present
Sheriff went into office, but gave it up when we
learned the patronage had been sold to the
Transcript. The Democrat has never been a
favorite with county officials,and we shall always
endeavor to de without the patronage that can
only be procured by means of bribery and corruption.
CoNGREGATIONAL Cucncu.—The gas fixtures have lately been put into this church, and
the building was kghted up with gas for the
first time yesterday evening. Services will now
be held twice every Sabbath—at eleven o’clock
in the forenoon, and at half-past seven in the
evening. The Sabbath School meets at halfpast one in the afternoon, and prayer meetings
will be held on Wednesday evenings.
Frencu Tactics.--Y esterday evening Mons.
Chauval put the Nevada Cadets through a
course of drill, in accordance with the French
tactics. We learn that the young men are rapidly improving, and under the instruction of so
experienced a tactician as M. Chauval will soon
vecome perfected in the company drill.
THEATRICAL.—The well-known tragedian,
McKean Buchanan, and his daughter Miss
Virginia, are announced to appear at the Nevada Theater next Monday evening. They
erform portions of the ee of Romeo and
Juliet, Richard III and Hamlet.
A Marcuep Doc Ficur has been made
up between Taylor’s “Boxer” and Seth McCain’s
“Shaker,” for $100 a side. It comes off at Jeffery’s Glenbrook Race Course, on Saturday
next, at three o’clock Pp. M.
In Town.—Rev. J. H. Warren, formerly
pastor of the Congregational church, in this
place, and at present editor of The Pacific, arrived in town yesterday, by way of Marysville.
Going Home.—Mr. John Webber, of Rough
& Ready, and an old resident of the county, is
making preparations to return to his old home
ia the Atlantic States.
GARDEN SEEDs.—Every variety of garden
seeds, grown in Nevada county, can ve obtained
at the Commerciel Street Drug Store, next door
below Welch’s Bookstore.
NY SEI TL ERAS
Laxity or DiscrpLine AT SAN QUENTIN,
—A correspondent of the Solano Herald asserts that a great lack of discipline is observable at the State Prison—very few of the rules
being observed or enforced. At night, in the
large rooms which are improperly called cells,
the different droves of prisoners were accustomed to set back their stools, etc., against the
wall, mount a fiddler on a cask, forma uadrille set, and dance like Bacchanalian evils
till ten o’clock or midnight, whooping, yelling,
shouting and’ clapping their hands in a manner
which would induce any idea but that they
were convicts, Others sat upon the floor, engaged in the games of cards, dice and dominoes; while still others, of the soberer class,
had books or newspapers, which they were intently reading skied the hubbub. Many sang
songs, and at times the convicts were allowed to
procure and peruse books of obscene character,
but this practice has been abolished, greatly to
the benefit of the institution. Such abuses as
these deserve investigation.
Corton Grow1NG In INpD1IA.—The advices
from Madras, of the 27th ult., state that the
Board of Commerce has informed the Government that the Egyptian cotton-seed, supplied
by Mr. Shubrick, had been tried at Caddaph and
other places, and the result was a failure. In
Canjam the collector states that the produce
could be raised all over the district with or without special care, although far greater yield
might be expeeted from the plants that are
carefully watered. The samples which have
been forwarded were pronounced by the Chamver of Commerce, although discolored, to be
Probably worth from 5d. to 7d. a pound in London.—{Morning Post.
Tue Canadian military authorities xt Montreal advertised for 2, iron bedsteads for
troops arriving, whereupon some speculators
bought up all the iron in the market suitable for
the purpose, and held it fora large advance.
The War Department decided at once to substitute blankets for bedsteads, and the speculators “missed a figure.”
Jas. Morpnuy was killed at Quartz Flat
says the Auburn Herald, on the 13th inst., by
the caving on him of his mining claim. He
was 37 years old, and has a wife and family in Springfield, Mass.
