TUESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1863
A Chinese woman was found a few days since, near Kelsey’s ravine, almost in a state of nudity
with her head badly cut. Policeman Scott took her to Chinatown and ordered the half brutes to dress her
wound, clothe and feed her. The Johns’ promised well. “Me sabe; me fede, me clothe, me take welly good
care,” and commenced dressing her up in style in the presence of the officer. A day or two elapsed and
Marshal Davidson found her worse off that [sic] she was when first discovered, perambulating round in
the ravine. He took her back and told Mr. Chinaman that if she was found again he would bag the whole
of Chinatown. This frightened the Celestials and they are taking good care of her. They grumble mightily
at this procedure and say:—’One Chinaman buy woman $60, swindle, no good, you shabe, he no likee
her, she all timme sickee, no good one bittee. Himpo, shabe, me backen was tupo. Ho kim ka kum me
sinda.”
STABBING AFFAIR AT GRASS VALLEY.—We learn that a man named Little was stabbed in two
places by his brother-in-law, J. B. Bledsoe, on Saturday night last. The particulars as far as we are able to
learn are as follows. Bledsoe was abusing his wife, when her brother, Mr. Little, came in and interfered,
whereupon B. pulled a knife out and stabbed him twice in the side. The wounds are not dangerous.
Bledsoe has not been arrested.
