BLASAUF, dec25 City Brewery, Spring st., Nevada. NEW YORK PRICES. . . Hevada Democrat. Tue Coam Trape.—Few of our citizens . know. of the extensive use made of Californiacoal. Atthe present time there are . several mines fully opened and worked by a large number of men, the proceeds from . whieh are insufficient to meet the public demands, One of the companies. known as the “Pittsburg Coal Company,’’ bas been in active operation during the past year, an@ is now supplying several foundries, mills and manufactories in this city. The consumers speak of the article as at. as good if not better, than that imported from the Eastern States and Borope. The workmen are now taking the coalfrom a point about 1700 feet below the ovteroppiog. The mine is situated between Mount Diablo and the San Joaquin river, abont four miles from the town of Antioch. It is owned by four gentlemen, Mr. Henry T. Allen being the priocipal stockholder. In view of the growlng scarcity and consequent high price of wood, it is gratifying to know that an excellent substitate in unlimited quantities. and hut a short distance from a navigable . stream, has been found. Mr, Allen informs . us that indications are euflicient to warrant the idea that the coal beds extend over the whole section of country between the two points we have mentioned, It is not too ; much to suppose that in avery few years California will supply the whole Pacific . coast with this material, which can be far. bished at a price defying competition from . any other source.—[Mirror. Dirrueria.—The Pacific Medical and . Sargical Journal, alluding to the terrible disease known as diptheria, or putrid sore throat, saye: During the first two weeks of Apri) this disease manifested itself with all its usual malignity in thie city; there were eight well authenticated cases. Of this number, six died, the mortality being seventy-five per cent. This aceords with our investiga-. tion of the relative mortality of the epidemic of 1859, which epread over the State that year; the result of those inquiries developed the fact that in all the cases that . could be well authenticated at that time, the ratio of the mortality amounted to sevae per cent, There are many cases called diptheria which have scarce any re' semblance to the disease, and are cured; . but most physicians who are not disposed to deceive, and have treated this disease, will tell you frankly, and the patient’s friends also, that it is for the most part be. yond our control. The scourge, which bid . fair to take an epidemic form from the first . to the seventh of the month, has subsided, . Granp Lopes I. O, or 0. F.—This body, . which was in session at San Francisco last . week and adjourned on Saturday, elected . the following officers: M. W. Grand Master, T. R. Kibbe; R. W. Deputy Grand Master, J. A. Bowen; R. W. /Grand Warden, Levi Hite; R, W. Grand Secretary, T. Rodgers Johnston; R. W. Grand Treasurer, G. I. N. Monell; R. W.

Himmelman, ’ ne ee Yoney Lake VauLiey.—This summit valley is said by the Territorial Enterprise to . be approaching the character of old settle'ments. The people are fencing and im. proving their land, and building comfortable dwellingsin place of the old cabins. Peach trees do well there, and were in bloom several weeks ago. This is an evidence of the soperiority of the Honey Lake route for a winter railway. Apple trees have been npgpeneetiy planted this spring. The town of Susanville is growing apace, and a brisk trade with Northern California is springing up. Tae Rervextne Orricisis.—The next steamer due will be the St. Louis, She will have among ber passengers Mesers. Rankin, Farwell, Folger, Parker, Stevens, Cheenery, Birdseye, Butler, Dr. Gunn, Chessman, Denio, Nanes, Satterlee, Zane, McLean, Watrous, and we koow not how many otbers successful and unsuccessful applicants . for Federal office. A letter has been received from Mr. Washburn, who states that he has been entirely ignored by his party, . and that he will probably not again return to California—at ‘east not until after the . meetiog of the July Congrese.—[ Alta. Tue first official act of Rabe, the new . United States Marshal for the Northern . District of California, was to clear that office of the traitorous fag that floated there from the minature ship Jeff. Davis. Tae next session of the Grend Lodge of Odd Fellows will be held in Marysville, NUMBER 459, Union Demonstration atthe Bay. A grand Union demonstration came off at San Francisco on Saturday, in which it is estimated that from 40,000 to 50,000 participated. Avceording to the Mirror there’ were Bying im the eity 26,252 American flags, by actual count, and over 30,000 Unien badges were sold on Friday and Saturday. All the Consular flags were floating except that of the English Consul, who said he did not want to mix in polities, A dispatch to the Marysville Appeal gives the aonexed report of the speeches made on the: oceasion; . Sevator Latham made a regular out-andout coercion Union speech, and went alb lengths in eupport of the Administration to: sis ta aed ougall made a like uncompromisin Union speeeh. abd was most esbimawaaiie applauded. He said: “Whatthough Abrabam Lincoln was the candidate of the Reubliean party; he is the Constitutional resident of the United States of North: America ; he is the head of my Geveroment;. he is my President, and I am a loyal oitizen. (Cheers, and cries of “Good for you, General.”] I believe he will do his duty to the American people ; to himself, to his bigh office ; and I say is is the duty of all true patriots to sustain him, and through’ him the Constitation and the Union, in this day of fiercest tria),”’ _ Gen. Shields followed. Hesaid he would Just define his position, He had no new creed for the emerganey; be had an old one that bad served bim hitherto, He hoped that it would save the country yet. He had taken the oath of allegiance to the Constitution and the Government, and be would take now another oath to keep that. This elicited cheers, when the General closed in a glowing strain of e¢ nce. Gen. Sumner, the Commander of the Pacifle Division of the U.S. Army, with cha peau in bis left hand, took the stand and was cheered until the cheerere became hoarse. Gen. Sumner said : ‘Who says that we bave no longer a Government? If there is amy such, let him look at this immense assemblage, of which every man is for maintaining the Constitawerner rg Oks the whole land at every hazard. rs.) Can any one doubt that the Gevesaien® will be tmaintained ? {Answers of “No! No!’’} Look at the resources of the Gevernment. Its means and money are inexhaustible, and the expenses of this maintaining of the Guvernment ure no waste, for they are all produced by the supporters of the Government, It is on) making money change hands, and what ts better yet, it is going from the rich to the poor. (Laughter, and cries of “Good! A capital point that!’’} Consider the difference between fighting for a glorious Government and ighting with a miserable attempt to break down that Government, If there were such a thing as peaceable secession, there would be some sense in talking about it; but the only question is, shall rebellion be put down now, once and forever, or shall we have a border war of indefinite length that must inevitably end in a military despotism? ([Cheers.) But the secessionists consider themselves as our superiors, [Langhter.] They say we have o tame people and a tame President. Ags to the first, we may leave itto the course of events; but as tothe latter, and I speak from personal knowledge, in that modest and very quiet gentleman, Mr. Lincoln, they will find that they have “caught a devil of a Tartar.’ Governor Downey’s answer ina letter, excusing bis absence and referring to his last annual meseage, eaid: “I have had no reason to change in sentiment since I made use of these expressions, and think I have given evidence of consistency in my public acts. I believed then as I do now, that the only means of preserving the American Union was honorable compromise and respect for the constitutional rights of every section. I believe in the Government using all its constitutional power to preserve itself and resiet aggression, I did not then believe nor do I now, that an aggressive war should be waged upon any section of the Confederacy, nor do I believe that this Union can be preserved by a coercion polwpe The future will reveal the soundness of thi 8 position.’ _ Emperor Norton I of San Francisco, bas . issued an edict which runs thus: Be “Imperial Guards—to your duty! The . time for action has arrived! The decrees of the Empire must be enforced! The Legi . lature is still in = rebellion, devouring -~ substance an remorselessly plundering } e Imperial Treasury! Guards, to your daty! Disperse the rebels! Spare no one but the usurper, Downey!—him will I meet in single combat!’’ NvGGets.—A Russian, knownas “Old Jackson, recently took out at Mad Canon, near Forest Hill, a lump weighing 21 ounces, 17 ounces of which were pure oh A nugget of five ounces was also found near Volcanoville, in sight of Forest Hill.
