A Local Enterprive.
Arrangements are being madeto Te
open the Harmony drift gravel mine
of this township, and local capital is
being intested in the enterprise to.that
end. Following is the agreement upon
which the undertaking is conducted:
Whereas, We the undersigned, being
the owners ini fee simple of the ground
known asthe Harmony Drift Gravel
Mine, situated on the Washington
Ridge, above the Manzanita mine,
near Nevada City, California, offer the
following proposition ;
Desiring to work, the property
described, we hereby agree to forman
incorporation with a capital stock of
15,000 shares of the par value of $1 per
share, 9,000 shares of which we will
sell for-aworking capital.
After the disposal of a sufficient
numberof shares the incorporation
will be effected, and the purchasers
will then organize by the election of
officers for one year. eer
The purchasers of stockwill_be-re-~
quired to pay 20 per cent. of the par
value at the time of transfer, the
balance to be paid in installments as
qequiied. Shceuld pay ground be struck
before the par value of the 9,000 shares
be exhausted the balance of the shares
will be divided pro rata amoung the
stockholders
A. Isoarp,
Geo. J, HoTHELSALL,
Numerous business’ men and other
citizens are subscribing liberally to
the stock, and it is believed there will
-be no difficulty in finding a market
for the 9,000 shares,
In.1862 the northerly portion of the
claim was prospected hy A. H. Parker,
Chas, Marsh, H. H. Flagg, Jeremiah
Brown and others. They took out
$33,477.39, and ran out of their ground
before reaching thechannel. The bedrock was at the stopping point pitching one foot in three to the south,
showing that the channel’s rim was
being neared. The present Harmony
claim includes the land to the-south of
the old claim and which contains the
main channel.

Last Week’s Raid on the MongoMan Miners at Omega.
The Marysville Appeal of Saturday
gives the following account of the antiminers’ latest move: ‘
A few weeks ago, on action brought
by the courity of Yuba, an injunction
was issued in the Superior Court by
Judge Keyser, enjuining the owner
and the superintendent of the Omega
hydraulic mine, and some thirty odd
Chinamen, from operating it. Theinjunction was served on the 3d instant.
Watchmen were then put on the lookout, and withoutmuch effort or delay;
caught the mine in active operation.
The officers of the Anti-Debris Association were advised, and District: -Attorney Forbes immediately proceeded ‘to
getout the necessary papers in contempt. They were all ready on Thursday. morning, the District Attorney
having been very active in making out
the papers and preparing to -surprise
the Chinamen engaged to bring about
been sworn in as Deputy Sheriffs, and
accompanied by the District Attorney,
this posse got on a special train, consisting of a coach, freight car and engine, which, by prior engagement, had
come up from Sacramento and was in
charge of a conductor and one brakeman. The Deputy Sheriffs were well
armed, and-prepared for their journey,
but in order not to excite suspicion as
to the object of their trip, they got on
the train at different points along the
line of the—railroad. At-Yuba Station, four horses and two wagons were
put -into the freight car, and then
the trip to Emigrant, Gap, the nearest
place tothe Omega mine, was begun.
The party realized the character of the
nndertaking before them, and the best
of decorum was the result. They arrived at the Gap at a little after midnight, and occupied considerable time
in getting the wagons together and
harnessing the teams. The distance
from there to the mine is but eight
miles, but it was over a rough and uncertain road, added to which was an
impediment to traveling in the shape

A Serious Accident.
On Sunday afternoon a fourteenyear-old boy named Walter Trood, son
of John Trood of North San Juan, went
out hunting with another boy. Coming to a-ditch across which two trees
had been felléd, they started to walk
over on the trees, when young Troud
fell into the ditch, his shotgun falling
with him. ° As the boy was scrambling
out of the Water he stooped over to
pick up the weapon the barrels of
which had lodged against one of the
trees. In raising the gun the hammer
of one of the barrels was raised in such
a manner as to discharge the load in
that barrel, The shot plowed through
the right side of the face, cutting a
furrow fromm the jaw to. the temple.
The wound is about an inch wide, and
only as deep as the cuticle. Had the
gun pointed a trifle more to the left
his head would have been blown off.
He walked to his home half a mile
distant and Dr. Farley dressed the
wound. The boy will be all right
again in a few days. ©
Jllness of Sheriff Lord.

Sheriff Lord is seyiously ill with neuralgiaof the liver, and the attending
physicians had to give him frequent
hypodermic injections of morphine
Sunday afternoon and evening in order
to allay the pain, The prospects are
that his trial, set for Tuesday, will
have to be postponed. There is a street
rumor to the effect that Capt. L. B.
Little, one of the leading attorneys of
the county, will be employed to assist
the District Attorney in prosecuting.

week in setting up the marriage notice
of Hon. E, W. Roberts as it appeared
inthe Nevada Journal of January 21,
1853. The notice should have read
thus:

* Aiter two hours’ traveling the posse
réached the cabin of the~thinese:
miners, near the mine, just before the
break. of day. In order to prevent the
eseupe-of-any of the hydraulickers the
party proceeded systematically to surround the place. Guards were stationed at a distance, andthen the greater
.pumber approached the shanty. They
had hardly reached «the place when
they learned that the Chinamen knew .
that somebody was after them, and
they immediately cotimenced to barricade the doors. After a few moments
of very lively skirmishing, the law officers effected anentranve. The scene
on the inside of the building was very
amusing. The Chinamen were endeavoring to hide themselves in every
portion of the building, in boxes,under
beds and elsewhere. They were hauled out, and with some little trouble,
but without any great show of resistance, they were shackled and started
toward Emigrant Gap. The march
up and down the hills was very wearisome, and the party was tried out
when the train was reached.
The journey from Emigrant Gap to
this city was made very rapidly, and
the train arrived here ata few minutes
before 4 o’clock. At the depot there
Was an expectant crowd -in waiting,
who greeted the successful-party in a
lively way. The prisoners were marched tothe county jail, where Sheriff
Saul had prepared the cells to receive
them.
The prisoners nuinbertwenty. There
.would have been thirty-one, had not
eleven of the Chinese-working at the
mine left it a few.days ago, suspecting
that they-would get into trouble if they
remained,
District Attorney Forbes is credited
with the inception of the plan of capture, which was so successfully carried
out. The whole matter was. carefully
discussed by the Advisory Board and
the officers of the AntiDebris Association, and its aid secured, before the [
movement was undertaken,
The arrést of so large a gang of
Chinese was hailed ere with much
satisfaction, when the news became
noisec ubout the city. It was the general sentiment that the Chinese, who
for along time past have been the
chief source of trouble in unlawful hydraulicking, will henceforth be afraid
torun the risk of capture and imprisonment for the small chance affored them
in the mines. [tis possible that the
Six Companies may issue a warning to .
all Celestials to beware of the danger
to which they are exposed by violating
anti-debris injunctions and thus ineurring the punishment for contempt of
court. Cae
It is probable that the case of the
captured Chinese will come up in the
Superior Court today.
There can be no trouble about the
identification of any of the prisoners,
as special pains were taken in advance
of the capture to have every one at
work in the mine carefully scrutinized
hy witness who will appear for the
prosecution.

(Appeal of Sunday.[
Frank M. Stone,a Stockton attorney,
arrived here yesterday and announced
himeelf as the legal representative of
“. the 'wenty Chinamen who were incarcerated on last Friday in thé Yuba
county jail for having violated an inhydraulic mining at
Omega. It wad understaod that he had
been sent here by R. W. Tully, of
mine, :
Mr, Stone expressed great indignation when he arrived here yesterday
and Jearned that the Chinamen: had
-been arrested. He eluimed that District Attorney Forbes. had agreed to
at 3:30 o’clock on Thursday afternoon, .
meet him here yesterday and talk over . shiloh
The District Attorney says that all
that was true, but he had not promised Mr. Stone that he would not perform his duty in endeavoring to corral
law-breakers, and he did not deem it
policy to acquaint Mr. Stone with the
manner in which they expected to
secure the offenders, as he feared Mr.
Stone might commit a breach of professional etiquette and inform his
clients of the contemplated step.
After looking over the grounds, Mr.
Stone obtained a writ of habeus corpus, issued by Judge Keyser, and
made returnable before himself at
once. The petition was heard, and
the Chinamen were remanded to the
custody of Sheriff Saul. The contempt
cases will be heard on next Friday

An Absurd Notion.
Two Californians recently called on
the Secretary of War at Washington
to urge upon him the necessity of directing that the Biggs Debris Commission visit the gravel mining region hefore making their final report. He referred them to the Chief Engineer,
General Casey. When the cullers
presanted the subject to the latter he
said that ‘‘the commissioners could
not go in person to examine the mines
unless the government sent a company
of cavalry along to protect them.” ‘The
visitors pointed out to him the absurdity of his notions, and he expressed
surprise upon learning that the miners
woul . not commit ‘viélence upon any
people from the outside who went

Grpsonvitts, Srerra Co., April 16th.
Eprror Transcript—In looking over
the Transcrirt of the 12th instant I
noticed an article headed, ‘‘Sad. if
True,” and which stated that D. McPhee, formerly of North San Juan, but
now -engaged in teaching school at
Gibsonville, had become partially deranged; and that he had on one occasion locked thepupils in. the school
room and made them dance, etc.
In justice to Mr, McPhee and his
many friends here and in your county,
I take pleasure in saying the above
article is incorrect: Iam sorry to say
your informant must have been in a
worse condition than he reported MePhee to be. On my return here I met
Mr. McPhee for the first time, and
find him a gentle of scholarly atHe is Marea here as a
first-class teacher.
Asa tristee I was instrumental in
selecting him-to take charge of our
school, In justite.to him will you
kindly contradict the statement made
to you, and through the~Transcrirr
inform his friends that he teyer enjoyed better health, is teaching every
day, and draws his monthly salary
regularly.
I met him_yesterday morning floundering through two feet of new snow
to reuch the schoolhouse. If the
above facts are not sufficient evidence
of the soundness of his mind, I am no
judge.
IfI had time before the mail closed
I-would obtain the other two trustees’
signatures in denying your informant’s
statement, Youre Truly,
