After . some discussion fthe bill was r fered, with asubstitnte offered by Mr. Chase, to the Committee on Corporations. Their Sins did Find them Oat. On Wednesday last several miners eccupying a cabin a short distance this side of Buna Vista Ranch missed a quantity of provisiens, and on looking around, soon dissovered tracks of the theives, and followed their trail over two miles in the direction of Grass Valley, when darkness overtook them and they gave np the search for the night. The next morning soon led them to a cabin, just above Carpenter’s Ranch, when the articles were found and fully identified, even to an old coms, which bad been taken among other things. No one being in the cabin at the time, a watch was set for the occupants, who soon appeared, when the services of two ofour citizens were called into requisition to aid the watchers in their capture. The party well, armed, appeared at the cabin and on being admitted, charged the occupants directly with the theft, Finding themselves fairly trapped, they begged most piteously, to be spared a public exposition, offering to retnra the provisions aad surrender anything else in the cabin—their clothing and beddi ng—to be let off, assert. ing at the same time that this was their first j and only offence, and that they were driven tothe act from sheer hunger. being unable . . } ged their captors to consider the great exReso.vep,—That a County Convention of the National Democracy shall be held in the . eity of Nevada on Saturday, February the . phe First 25th, at 11 A.

The Engineer’s Report will appear in about one month, that delay being thought advisa. ble to procure certain statistical information . which it is disired shoald accompany the Report. On Wednesday and Thursday Mr. Elliott made a cursory examination of Wolf Creek, from a point about five miles below this place, from which he learned that that route was impracticable for a railroad. He found that the average descent of the Creek, for that distance exceeded 100 feet to the mile. ! , By this route an elevation of over 2000 feet to obtan employment, They moreover beg. pense to which the county would be pat, if . called upon to try. corvict and punish them. .

The following resolution was recently . passed at a Republican meeting held at Ashtabula, Ohio. It speaks for itself : i . The census Popunation or Ontna.—There is very good reasen for believing that the population of China is angmenting at a very rapid ratio, for an ancient people eeparated from the great progressive elements of modern times reports of that country show that its population 100 yearsago was but 190,000,000. Fifty years afterwards the population numbered 360,000.000. The last 413,000,000. From the last report it would seein that the elements of increase have not Resolved. That we do not lack the power to do right in reference to slavery and slaveholders. We can out-vote them, out-wit them and out-fight them. We have more men, more money, more learning, nore en~ serprise. We have more tailreads, more manatactories, more shipping and more bullets. We can burn as well, and bully as well, and incase of emergency there is Kaneas, Canada and Mexico, to say nothing of the Seminoles and slaves, and why ehould we be trampled upon by the cradle-plunderers of the south. We do not suppose all that belong to the Republican Party endorse the sentiments of the above rerelution but that many of the leaders, and the masses of the Republican Party, in Obio, Massachusetts and several 4 The couservative element in the Republiean Party, is melting like snow in the neonday run, und it is fast merging intoa boisterous, fanatical, and despicable combination, of Free lovers, spiritualiats, abolitlonists and disunionists.

It is not easy to reconcile these facts with the prevalent idea that this country is in a state of decadence, needing the infusion of foreign elements to renew the energies of the nation, . There can be no doubt but for the last century China has been in a fioursi hing and progressive state. What effect the present gradual introduction of foreign elements may have upon the progress of popul ation there, may be somewhat problematical.

We have had frequent occasion to mention the improvements which sre constantly gaing on, in this neighborhood, in the way of agriculture and horticulture. Experi: ence bas thoroughly proved that nearly all our hill tops and hill sides as well as our valleys may, by jadicions management, even without artificial irrigation, be made to produce abundaat grain crops, while the very highest of our hills are covered with a soil which needs but a little irrigation to produce bountifully in fruit and vegetables, A few days since we took a walk to the nursery of Mr. J. E. Marshall, located on the very summit of the hill on the south side of Wolt Creek, directly opposite the Gold Hill mill. Mr. M. bas bere tenced in about 12 acres of quite as unpromising land as any that can be found in the neigtborhcod of Grass Valley, and although he is but just closing the second year of his operations, he bas already in vigorous growth 1000 fruit trees, all of etandard varieties, and 3000 grape vines growing within his enclosure, and looking quite as well as any nursery or . Vineyard of the same age in the most favorable valley localities. It is bis intention . to greatly increase his present stock of trees . and vines, the present season. Mr. M. has’ achieved a most complete success, and proved to every observing man chat, with mod. erate opportunities for irrigation, no 1iftin, . even in the mountains, need be without his . patch of cultivated ground.

On Wednesday last several miners eccupying a cabin a short distance this side of Buna Vista Ranch missed a quantity of provisiens, and on looking around, soon dissovered tracks of the theives, and followed their trail over two miles in the direction of Grass Valley, when darkness overtook them and they gave np the search for the night. The next morning soon led them to a cabin, just above Carpenter’s Ranch, when the articles were found and fully identified, even to an old coms, which bad been taken among other things. No one being in the cabin at the time, a watch was set for the occupants, who soon appeared, when the services of two ofour citizens were called into requisition to aid the watchers in their capture. The party well, armed, appeared at the cabin and on being admitted, charged the occupants directly with the theft, Finding themselves fairly trapped, they begged most piteously, to be spared a public exposition, offering to retnra the provisions aad surrender anything else in the cabin—their clothing and beddi ng—to be let off, assert. ing at the same time that this was their first j and only offence, and that they were driven tothe act from sheer hunger. being unable . . } ged their captors to consider the great exReso.vep,—That a County Convention of the National Democracy shall be held in the . eity of Nevada on Saturday, February the . phe First 25th, at 11 A.

The census Popunation or Ontna.—There is very good reasen for believing that the population of China is angmenting at a very rapid ratio, for an ancient people eeparated from the great progressive elements of modern times reports of that country show that its population 100 yearsago was but 190,000,000. Fifty years afterwards the population numbered 360,000.000. The last 413,000,000. From the last report it would seein that the elements of increase have not Resolved.

We can burn as well, and bully as well, and incase of emergency there is Kaneas, Canada and Mexico, to say nothing of the Seminoles and slaves, and why ehould we be trampled upon by the cradle-plunderers of the south.

Mr. M. bas bere tenced in about 12 acres of quite as unpromising land as any that can be found in the neigtborhcod of Grass Valley, and although he is but just closing the second year of his operations, he bas already in vigorous growth 1000 fruit
