Ghe Morning Gransevipt. Office, No. 36 Commercial street. NEVADA CITY—_——_.———_——— TUESDAY MORNING, OCT. 8th. NOT BORN TO DIE. An item is going the rounds that Gen: Nathaniel Lyon, the Hero of the West. in his iast will and testament bequeathed to the country for whieh he yielded up his life, all his property valued at $30,600. A more fitting bequest for such a man could not have been made. Gen. Lyon loved his country with an ardor not to be extinguished but with his latest breath. In life'as in death his devotion was tnarked and heroic. History will tell his story for the admiration of future ages: If-will tell of his Spartan heroism, and ‘-gloriots death. It will recount his private virtues, his manliness and desinterested patriotism, rising above all selfish desire for personal honors and looking only to the preservation, the honor and glory of the country he loved so well. : When we look at the sublime spectacle of @ patriot General with but a handful of inen into whom he had infused his own intensity of patriotic: purpose, staking all against immense odds to stay the march of ruthless enemies, as did Gen. Lyon, even in the darkest hour of our country we need not despair. The spirit of liberty still lives and will beat-back the brutal frunt.of rebelhon till it shall be raised no more. ° The death of a patriot like Gen. Lyon will make a thousand heroes of the living who will. strive to eclipse his’ deeds or rival his dexth. His pame is not written on the roll of common men. He is not consigned to the ** heartless juxury of a tomb,” but his living virtues will ‘bloom and diffuse their iuspiriting fragrances through all time as long as lofty integrity shall find « home .in the human heart. New Reaime. —The new offieers of the county, all Republieans, began their terns on ' yesterday, to end in March, 1864. The new regime was unnounced by unfurling a fine new American flag from the top of the Court House, where the officers propese it shall wave while a shred remains. . ~ We understand the following appointments have been made: Sheriff Knowlton has selected Henry Philips, Esq., well known as a good business man and gentleman, as Under Sheriff, and Wm. Hazlett, Esq., as Jailor. These gentlemen are bound to give entire satisfaction in the discharge of their duties. We learn that J. N. Turner, County Collector, has not completed his appointments. Israe] Crawford, Esq., of North San Juan, and John Bennett, Esq., of Grass Valley, will probably be collectors of foreign miners’ licenses, and Samuel Keller, collector of poll “Joseph Roberts will be retained till the first Of Jauuary. in the Clerk and Recorder’s office—and_ very properly, too, as his long and thoroughacquaintance with the business in that office reiiders his services indispensible for the time being. ; A gentleman named Fsink, of Omega, becomes the Deputy of John Sykes in the Recorder’s department. In the Treasurer’s office, whith, by the way, will be kept atthe old place, Mulferd & Hagadorn’s banking house, it is undérstood Henry Mackie, Esq., as competent a gentleman for that or any other position he would accept as any man in the land, will act as Deputy, as be has done under the very satisfactory administration of Ex-Treasurer Chinn. We are not informed of the probable appointment of Surveyor Bradley. Probably, as the labors of that offffe are not onerous, he may choose to perfptin them himself. Knowing the officeéfs elect aud their appointees to be whatjthey should be, we predict, from an impartial stand-poit, that the verdict of the people will be, svhen their official terms have expired, ‘‘ well done, good and faithful servants.” .

The livliest discussion of the state of affairs in Missouri prevailed in all quarters at Washington.

Summary measures for repressing it alone saved the State the horrors of civil war. It is estimated that Gen. Patterson’> campaign in Virginia cost the Government ten million dollars.

Lewe made a balloon ascénsion @m our lines on the morning of Sept. 25th and was fired upon by the enemy—no shots were effective. 7 ‘The number of sick and wounded soldiers in the six hospitals in the District of Colunbia, is 767. Ex-President Filmore, through the Buffalo Courier, contradicts the statement made by the St. Louis correspondent to the N. Y. Tribune saying he approved of Fremont’s emancipation proclamation. He does not approve of it, and cordially endorses the President’s position. Interior Enterprise. The following excellent article, evidently, written by some oué who knows the amometains, is copied from the editorial column of the S. F. Evening Journal : We learn from the Auburn Herald that the cars are running to within four miles of Lincoln, and that the people of that thriving town can already hear the whistle of the locomotive. Lincoln is only,26 miles from Nevada, to wlfich place the railraad is rapidly tending Yhese are startling faetswhen we reflect thaf this wonderful progression is the result of private enterprise. “It may be surprising to, one who, ten years ago, traveled the crooked and steep roads to Nevada, to be told that within a year or so, the people of that rich and important county will be erying “Look out tor the locomotive 1’ But it is even so; the spirit. of enterprise is everywhere abroad=in the mountains; the progressiveness is astonishing; fuotpaths give place to substantial wagon-roads costing thousands of dollars per mile, and these, in turn, are giving way to railroads—all the result of private efhterprise, the strongest subduer, the most potent civilizer. "nthe meantune. while this great highway is progressing. the Marysville and Oroville railroad is advancingy slewly, but surely. While the Coast road from San Francisco to Sau Jose is regarded as a work of great difficulty and importance. other and greater enterprises are being pushed forward with equal energy. It would be worth while for a citizen who hus not been up country for several years to make a tour through the mountain towns, if for no mor than to observe the permanence, beauty and wealth elaborated within less thin ten years. Costly churches, elegant dwellings, fruitful orchards,;—blooming gardens, everywhere make known the enterprise of indomitable, prosperous Labor.

The following excellent article, evidently, written by some oué who knows the amometains, is copied from the editorial column of the S. F. Evening Journal : We learn from the Auburn Herald that the cars are running to within four miles of Lincoln, and that the people of that thriving town can already hear the whistle of the locomotive. Lincoln is only,26 miles from Nevada, to wlfich place the railraad is rapidly tending Yhese are startling faetswhen we reflect thaf this wonderful progression is the result of private enterprise. “It may be surprising to, one who, ten years ago, traveled the crooked and steep roads to Nevada, to be told that within a year or so, the people of that rich and important county will be erying “Look out tor the locomotive 1’ But it is even so; the spirit. of enterprise is everywhere abroad=in the mountains; the progressiveness is astonishing; fuotpaths give place to substantial wagon-roads costing thousands of dollars per mile, and these, in turn, are giving way to railroads—all the result of private efhterprise, the strongest subduer, the most potent civilizer.

Costly churches, elegant dwellings, fruitful orchards,;—blooming gardens, everywhere make known the enterprise of indomitable, prosperous Labor.
