be at least two thousand men employed in quartz mining, which number will probably be more than
doubled during the approaching Spring and summer.

SUNDAY, JANUARY 15, 1865
A Card from Mr. L. D. Bosworth.
In relation to the card which appeared in the National, yesterday, over my signature. At the
request of Mr. Bennett, I make the following explanations:
Mr. G. D. Roberts, a friend of Ridge’s, accosted me in Mr. Spencer’s store, and stated his
desire that the quarrel between Ridge and Bennett should go no further, as it would bring
discredit on the town. I subsequently saw Ridge, and related to him the conversation I had had
with Mr. Roberts, and of my intention of seeing Mr. Bennett on the same subject. He, Ridge,
inquired when I intended to see Bennett, I told him in the morning. His, Ridge’s reply was
“hadn’t you better see him this evening.” I did so. Mr. Bennett informed me that there were only
two methods of settling the matter, which were that Ridge should make a public apology or
fight. L. D. BOSWorRTH,
Grass Valley, January, 14th, 1865.
BIRTHS. At North San Juan, January 8th, to the wife of Patrick Murphy, a daughter.
At North San Juan, on the 11th inst., to the wife of C. Helfried [Charles E. Helfrich]
DIED. At Nevada City, January 13th, Wallace Grant, youngest son of John and Marion Hutchinson.
THE CAUSE OF EDUCATION.—Tickets for the ladies’ Festival and Ball to be given at the Forest
Spring house on the 27th instant, are for sale at George W. Dixon’s, No. 4 Mill street; W. K. Spencer,
Main street, and at C. W. Smith’s, Exchange Hotel. The object of the ladies is to erect a Public School
house at the Springs. We hope the residents of this vicinity will be liberal in their aid towards so laudable
an object. The tickets, which include supper, are only $3 each.
PLOWING.—We notice that all the ranchmen in this vicinity, whose land is not on a dead level, are
plowing and preparing to plant. The bottom lands along the creeks, are too wet and the ground too heavy
for plowing just yet. Should the present fine weather continue ten days longer, nearly all the agricultural
land in the county will be plowed. There will be a considerably larger crop planted in this county this
season than was ever planted before.
