TUESDAY, JUNE 12, 1866 AT HOME.--We are at home once more. Having become tired of the giddily, dazzling scenes of San Francisco life, especially when seen from a sick bed. We have concluded to return home and enjoy once more the balmy, refreshing air of our mountain town. We have a host of things to tell our readers as soon as we shall have regained strength enough to resume our place on the UNION. We have stored away enough to keep the reader entertained for a week at least, and shall commence to dispense it just as soon as we possible can... . FIRE ALARM.—At about two o’clock yesterday morning the fire bell tapped an alarm of fire. There was but one tap, and the firemen soon ascertained that it was unnecessary for them to turn out the truck. The cause of alarm proceeded from the Wisconsin hotel, on Mail street. It seems that the clerk of the hotel had retired to bed leaving a light burning on a table in close proximity to the window curtains. The light soon communicated with and set the curtains on fire; and officer Stevenson happening to be passing at the time, saw the flames and gave the alarm. The fire was promptly extinguished by parties in the room, and no damage beyond the burning of the curtains was sustained. THE ROADS.—The roads between Grass Valley and Colfax are in splendid condition at the present time and the trip between the two places is now one of pleasure. Were it not for the annoying delays of the cars, the stages would reach Grass Valley at least an hour earlier than they do now. On Saturday last the cars were nearly an hour behind time in reaching Colfax, and sometimes the Sacramento boat is detained an hour waiting their arrival from Colfax. With our energetic drivers, Bob Scott and Johnny Majors, and the splendid stage stock, if the railroad would but give us half a chance, passengers and mails could be laid down here daily at eleven o’clock in the forenoon.
