TRE, LDale Ss othHOME MATTERS. ‘QmzGa IN ASHES.—On Saturday night, ast, 24th'idst., about 10-0’clock, a fire broke out inthe wash room of the Omega Hotel, -owned by C.D. Van Vranken and kept by Mrs. Hall, which spread with great rapidity, and, in haifan ‘hour, destroyed ali the buildings in the town, none escaping except some straggling cabin’ in the outskirts. The pro3 of the flames was so rapid that but few. household effects and articles of personal property were saved. No lives, we are aappy to say, were lost. A complete list of the sufferers has not been furnished us. Sublosers, with their estimated losses. Mrs!

We jearn-from our correspondent at that place, that a.cempany was organized on the 22d of August, to be called the.“‘Protection Hook and Ladder Company,” consisting of 58 members, and ef which the following gentlemen were elected officers : President—J C.Green.

THE WOUNDED SLUICE RoBBER.—The ; robber, who was shot, while in the act of’ pilfering amalgam from Sears & Buhring's élaim, at North San Juan, on Saturday morning, and who gives his name as John Wilson, is pow in Nevada hospital, and Dr. Hunt, the County Physician, says his case is a very cri‘tical one. His arm is horribly shattered and ust he amputated near the shoulder. Two buckshot entered his neck and ran up between the skull and scalp, but the wounds . ‘they made are not dangerous. His side was not teuched by the shot. He is a vagabond thief, whe bas been seen and known in this tity, for several months.—Jim Pettinger, who was brought.to the hospita) in the same conveyance with Wilson, has been . unjustly weused of being particeps criminis in the sluice robbery. Poor Jim was badly hurt by aboard pile falling on him while taking a quiet enooze in its shade. One of his legs is much burt, but not broken, and he will soon be well. ‘ eee Ee Stump speakers, as the campaign progreases toa close, are stirring their “stumps,” if we can judge by the way in which they pile it on the good people of our neighboring towns. Not less than five orators inftio dea their eloquence on the good folks of Red Dog on last Saturday evening, viz : Messrs. Hawley, Belden, Dunn, Caldwell and John Hus sey. We are informed that their audience was the largest that has assembled at Red Dog this season. These orators, we believe, are all Union Democrats. i menial Fravups in Curep Meats.—We learn, from the last number of the California Farmer, that tLere are provision dealers in San Franciseo who muke a business of souking, scouring, and resmoking old imported hams, shoulders, and flitches, and selling them for . freshly cured articles of Californian production. These scoundrels — infinitely worse than professional thieves—not only rob their Weuspecting customers of their money they are laboring to ruin the industrial welfare of the state by destroying the reputation of one of its most important products. "The editor of the Farmer says he knows the perPetrators ofthis new epecies of villainy. Is’ there nw law to punish them? They are, #t nce, robbers and traitore—they rob their tustomers and war against the true interests of the State—and the gallows is too good for them.
