PraiListic.—Quite a large crowd assemjed. on Broad street, night before last, and from the excited movements of those compesing it, it-was evident that something unysual was up. Lokalitums, who was out taking-a moonlight promenade, soon snuffed muss, and, of course, joimed the assemblige. ‘The crowd was then going down Pine street, and he was informed that two men of muscle had agreed to try their respective prowess on the saw dtist in Tracy’s ring, the sum of . twenty dollars having been. staked as q prize. just to make the game interesting. As each of the champions had a large number of personal friends on hand, it was hinted that the encounter would crop out in a good old-fashioned free fight, a prospect which warmed Lokalitums’ heart’s blood, and hé therefore rushed té the ring and took a front seat.The moon shone brightly on the amphitheatre, and a devoted relative of one of the eombatants, taking the latter by the shoulders, pushed him into the middle of the ring, with the brotherly remark-of “there, now, j—n you, show yourself!” The individual thus appealed to manifested his appreciation of the. confidence. thus reposed in’him by tossing up his cap and kicking up his heels. Everything prom‘sed well so far, but the other hombre, instead of coming up to the scratch, as he ought to have done, stood in the centre of a group of friends, arguing the probabilities of policemen Knerr and Scott rewarding his valor by shutting him up in the ealaboose, a prospect which did not seem to strike him as very flattering. The crowd impatiently shouted: ‘go in! show your muscle!” &e., but it was evident that it was “no go”——a sober second thonght had struck him, and. Lokalitums left in disgust, feeling that he had been swindled of the sight of a free fight by the light of the moon. PLUMBaGo —A specimen of this mineral commonly ealled ‘ black lead,” was presented to us a few-days-sinee; by Majer S. S.Lewis. who took it out of his mining elaim at Bucktye Hill, near Sweetland, in which it appears in great abundance, in company with pure copper and sulphate of copper. Plumbago, next to the diamond, is the purest form in which carbon is found in nature. We know too little of its commercivl value to venture an opinion as to whether its discovery by Major Lewis is or is nota piece of good fortune to that gentleman. The specimen can be seen in Blaze’s mineral cabinet. * — oo SmInALOA Mintne.—There is.a great rush trom California to Mazatlan, at this moment, te dig for silver in the Mexican state of Sinvjoa. A letter from Mr. Pershbacker, formerly of Marysville, te Aaron Davis, Exq , of this city, dated at Mazatlan, gives a glowing deseription of the silver mines in that region. The ore is represented to yield from three to six hundred dollars to the tun. The Murysville Appeal mentions the recent return to that city. of Mr. N. E Farrell, who has been suceessfully engaged in mining in Sinaloa, «nd who confirms Mr. Pershbacker’s statements. Mr. Farrell will return to Mazatlan immediately. For THE Geysers.—N. P. Brown, Esq , our captivating partuer, left, yesterd iy, for the Geyser Springs, where he intends to spend séme days in contemplatmg the beuties of nature. He has been melancholy of One CoMrorT.—The melancholy feelings excited by the war between the North and South are relieved. by one comforting hope, to wit: That it will lead to a permanent setthement ofthe: miserable sectional quarrel ‘which has disgraced the country twenty-five years. This is « small consolation, it 1s true; but if this result sball be secured it will be one advantage against a thousand evils. The belligerents will learn what can be done, and what cannot. Common sense will take the place of visionary sentimentalism and fanatiea) rant.. The demagogues that have inflamed end deluded the.minds of the people will ‘be visited with the condemnation they deserve. The people of the two sections will understand themselves and each other better, and possibly their respect for’ each other will be increased. Let us hope that this settlement wil be final—and from that hope gather one. drop of comfort to mingle with the full cup of our present sorrow.—Pacific Messenger. > A Hermit.—The Los-Angeles Star says: “It is said we have a veritable hermit who resides upon one of the islands off-our coast. He lives. in a cabin seven miles from aneigh-bor, refuses to converse with any one who happens to approach his quarters, but retires at once and closes the door. He is said ro poesess plenty of means, and a few years ago lived in Napa Valley, where he” Was remarkeple for his social disposition ahd busieee McSorley, A.A, Olinger. pe For Sheriff, John H, Dixson. ness capacity.” on Broad street, Thos.
