LOCAL MATTERS, Union Mertino—Srercu or Sexaton LatHAM.—Senator Latham having arrived in town yesterday morning, hand-bills were issued announcing that he would speak at the Theater in the evening. Although no particular pains was taken to extend the notice, the Theater was crowded at an early hour, and many had to leave because they were unable to find room inside, A.C. Niles, Esq., having been chosen chairman, introduced Mr. Latham to the audience, who spoke for about an hour in his usual happy and effective manner. His speech was unconditionally for the Union, and it is needless to say that his sentiments met witha hearty and almost unanimous response from the audience. He was frequently cheered, and the declaration that he, in conjunction with his colleague, would represent the Union sentiment of California in the U. 8. Senate, called forth storms of applause. He was followed by Judge Searls and A. A. Sargent, after which the meeting adjourned with nine hearty cheers for the Stars and Stripes. A procession was afterwards formed on the outside, and headed . by the Nevada Band, and two American flags, marched to the National, where Latham was serenaded. He appeared on the balcony, and . returned thanks in afew neat appropriate re. marks. Mr. Latham left this morning for . Marysville. . 1 . Cuicken Tuirves Axsovut.—About two . o'clock, last Thursday morning, Mrs. Sands,who . resides on Water street, hearing an unusual . cackling among her chick ens, arose, took a revolver, and going to the window, fired three shots in order to frighten offthe thieves. Po. liceman Knerr, on hearing the reports of the . pistol, repaired at once to the house, to ascertain the cause of the shooting in that usually . quiet neighborhood, at that time of night. Knerr, being joined by Mr. Colley, who lives close by, and another man, went to the chicken house, which they entered after removing a trap-gun. They found no thieves about the premises, but evidences to convince them that thieves had been there. The rascals thought it best to secede when they heard the reports of the pistol. NeEvapDA Founpry.—We called in at the Nevada Foundry yesterday afternoon, and were gratified to see that the business of the establishment was apparently increasing. Messrs. Heugh & Thom, the proprietors, are constantly making additions to the establishment, haying lately received from New York a new ‘and improved planing machine, a large and costly lathe, and other too!s for working iron. They supply a large portion of the castings used in Nevada county and Southern Sierra, and are prepared to manufacture almost every kind of iron work needed inthe mountains, and at very reasonable rates. Their conveniences are . such that they execute orders from places at a distance, at short notice. Tat Oatu.—At a meeting of the Nevada Rifles, held yesterday evening, Mr. E. W. Maslin, District Attorney of this county, and an . old member of the company, attended and gave . his reasons for refusing to take the army oath. He said that he had already taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United States, but he could not take an oath to support Lincoln, as it was clear that his present course is in violation of the Constitution, and such being the case, he could not burden his mind with an oath to obey the President’s orders. The President and U. S. Attorney General will feel bad when they learn that our County Attorney differs with them on a Constitutional question. S1pILantT.—At the Union meeting last evening there was but a single expression of dissatisfaction at the union sentiment of the several speakers. The declaration by Judge Searls . that the movers ofthe Pacific Republic programme in this State, were actuated by selfish motives, was received with much applause, and one very audible hiss. We are told that the . part of the goose for this occasion, was performed by a stripling of 16 or 17 years. We) would suggest the propriety of his being at . home and abed at so late an hour—or at least, if he must attend a meeting called for men only . —that he keep still, and letthe mentalk. Well . behaved boys will never disturb meetings. Baut at ALPHA.—Mr. J. A. Williams, cf) the Alpha Hotel, has made arrangements for giving a ball at that place, on Friday evening, . the 3lst inst. He has a fine, commodious hall for dancing, and having made suitable prepara. tions for accommodating guests coming from a . distance, we have no doubt the occasion will be an agreeable one. Norantes.—The following Notary commissions have been issued by the Governor, for this county: J. K. Byrne, of Grass Valley, in. place of C. Knight, resigned; J. I. Caldwell, of Nevada, re-appointed; John Caldwell, of Moore’s Flat, in place of D. H. Williams, term expired. .
