Aevada Dewocrat. ae LOCAL MATTERS, _ County CENTRAL CoMMITTRE.—We re ceived a note yesterday evening’ from a friend in Grass Vallcy, suggesting the propriety of culling a meeting of the Democratic County Committee, for the purpose of consultation and exchange of views in relation to future action. In the present posture of political affairs we think it would be a good plan for the committee to hold a meeting, and would suggest to the members to write to Mr. Davenport, the Chair~ man, and give him their views on the subject.

Rider, while on his way from the Court House to his residence on Aristocra. cy Hill, overhauled a noted Chinese thief, and . took from him a sack containing three live chickens. Rider took the chickens from him, ann meeting of the Baptist Sabbath School will be held at the church,on corner of Spring and Pine streets, at two o’clock to-morrow atfternoon. Foor Racr.—A foot race has been made up, to come off at the Glenbrook race course, on Saturday, June 7th, between Ben Rouse and ioe Williams, for $500 a side—distance half-a mile. Stockton—During the year ending May Ist there were exported from Stockton, wheat, barley, wool, hides, wood, flour, etc., to the value of $174,000. The imports of lumber amount to 850,000,000 of feet. INSOLVENT.—H. O. Mathews, an old established merchant of Stockton, has failed and is . about to avail himself of the Insolvent Act. . ane are stated at $21,000, assets, Fine Piace.—It is stated there is not wood enough within 18 miles of Lewistown, W. T., to boil a coffeo pot. This is the great rendezyous town for Salmon river mines, RARE NE RT CRN EN SAE MLCT NCEE Special Notices. To Friends of Nevada County: There being an impression among the ‘‘people”’ that during the floods at Sacramento recently, I had been ‘‘drowned,’? or closed my Forwarding department of trade, causes me totell you that my Forwarding House has not been closed three days during the floods, and was receiving and forwarding goods every day, although the water in the store was three feet deep. lam yet engaged in the business, and will be so long as my friends in Nevada county entrust their goods to my care, I can send goods from Sacramento city on teams, or ou the cars to Linculn, (I have an agency at Lincoln ) Have goods marked care of Wurrr, Sacramento City, and if you desire them on the cars } by Lincoln, have the goods marked “care of Wurrg, Lincoln,” and they will be properly attended to at either point. Sacramento, however, would be the best forwarding point. 0. WH, P. Warrs. San Francisco, April 5th, 1862, Masses. Repincton & Co: I take pleasure in informing you that I have been using your excellent Yeast Powders for some time, and unhesitatingly pronounce them unequaled by any similar preparation that I have ever used, Every . housekeeper may rely upon it that when used, according to directions, they never fail to produce that most desirable of allarticles of Good, Sweet, and Nuand started to deliver him into the custody of . tricious Bread, Having once proved how superior an officer; but while coming down the sidewalk in front of the Court House, the Celestial broke andrun. Rider shot at him twice, with a pistol. with the intention of wounding him in the legs, but the shots only tended to increase the fellow’s speed, and he succeeded in etting away. Mr. Rider took the chickens to his house, where the owner can get them. Meas.rs.—This contagion is prevailing to a great extent at the present time in Nevada. From what we can learn, we should judge that nearly half the small children in town have been afflicted with the disease within the past few weeks, but it is generally of a mild type, no deaths having occurred that we have yet heard ef. The collection together of so many children on May Day, probably had a tendency to spread the contagion. TEMPERANCE.—Father Waugh, of Petaluma, who is devoting his time to the cause of temperance among the rising generation, called at our office this morning, and we are pleased to learn that his work is progressing. He was here some three weeks ago, at the meeting of the Grand Lodge, and since that time has organized no less than eight societies in Nevada and Placer counties. His work is with the young exclusively. Bayonet Wovunp.—The other evening while some of the Nevada Cadets were practicing the sword exercise with sabre-bayonets, at their armory, Thos Roberts, one of their number accidentally received a pretty severe bayonet wound in the left breast. A little further, and the point of the weapon would have entered his heart. Case or BurKE.—The time for appeal in the case of Burke has expired, but we understand the appeal papers have all been made out, and we presume the Supreme Court will order the execution stayed, until a hearing can be had, should application be made. Unless a supersedeas is issued, he will be executed next Friday. The execution wil! not be public. For Carinoo.—Mr. J. R. Gwin, who has been in the employ of Dr. Bates for nearly a year past, left here on Thursday evening, wit the intention of trying his luck in the northern mines. Mr. Ed. Wheaton left yesterday evening for the same destination. Postronnp.— Mons. Chauval, who had pure posed giving a party at the Hook & Ladder Co’s House, on the 22d inst., has concluded to postpone it until the 29th. The room now being refitted, and will not be in proper condition for the party by the 22d. For S8sLe.—By the notice of Mons. Liebert, in another column, it will be seen that he offers for sale his daguerrean gallery, on Broad street. The establishment has a good run of custom, and an excellent opportunity is presented to a peison desirous of engaging in the business, No Service.—In consequence of the illness of Rev. Mr. Cummings, who has gone below for his health, there will no service at the brick church to-morrow. The Sunday School will Meet at half past one o’clock in the afternoon as they are to all others, I could on no account be without them, Mrs, N. MiLLs, apr26-3in, To Correspondents.—latients residing in any part of the State, however distant, who may desire the opinion and advice of Dr. Young, on their respective cases, and who think proper to submit a written statement of such, in preference to holding a personal interview, are respectfully assured that their communications will be held most sacred, Dr. Young takes this opportunity of observing that all letters are only opened and replied to by himself, and the latter as promptly as possible.
