I was upon the ground shortly after the discovery, and was acquainted with the principle actors. The discovery took place exactly thirty-two years before the date of this paper, and occured in the fol lowing manner: Captain Suter was building a saw mill, and had employed two or three white men as well as a num ber of Indians. They had dug a race to the river and built the framework of the mill. In the evening they had turned the water in the race so as to sluice out the tail-race. In the morning one of the white men, by the name of Jim Marshall, went down into the tail-race in order to find out how much dirt had been washed out. His attention was attracted to some shining lumps. Not knowing what they \yere, he gathered up some of them and took them to his fellow workmen for their inspection. One of these men had some knowledge of metals, aud at once pro ceeded to test the nuggets. He procured some aquafortis, and after applying it pronounced it gold an no mistake. It was agreed to keep the discovery a se cret, but Marshall was to inform Captain Suter, who was then at his fort, some twenty miles distant. Marshall took sev eral of the nuggets in a bag aud started on foot to the fort. Of the interview Captain Suter gives the following account: "Marshall reached my place about 3 o'- clock in the afternoon. He seemed great ly agitated. He asked me to go iuto a private room, as he had something to communicate. After he was in the room he asked me to lock the door. I felt un easy for the man looked wild. After 1 had locked the door he desired me to place something over the key-hole. 'Now, Captain, says he, 'do you think any one can hear us?' He then pulled out his bag of precious metal, and, emptying it upon the table, desired me to examine it, which I did, and pronounced it gold. Marshall immediately prepared to return. I asked him to remain all night, and I would go up with him. I could not pe suade him to remain. The next morning [ started on horseback, and several miles on my way I saw Marshall coming out of the bushes, all wet, it having rained in the night. We travelled along toghether until we reached the saw-mill, where we found all hands hud quit work and gone gold hunting. It is a singular fact that the same man who discovered gold in California w as the cause of its being found in Australia, in which country it was discovered by James Margrave. England, for the bene iii derived therefrom, by act of I'arlia raeut gave to Margrave the sum of $77,000, while Marshall has never received a cent from the United States, not even a pen sion, showing the ditt'ereuce between the two governments, llargrave and Mar shall were old acquaintances, and llar grave had jusl returned from Australia when Marshall met him aud induced him to return to Australia and seek for gold. This he did, and the result was the iiuding of richer deposits than in California.— Philadelphia Times. The " Catholic lievicw" says about mixed marriages : "It is time that Catholics awoke to the danger with which the custom of mixed marriages, becoming, unfortunately too common, is threatening us. No reason able person cun 4 expect that if the chil dren of Catholics be surrounded by alien influence they will conic forth unscathed and unt&ruislied. It" }oung person be surrounded with Catholic inliueuces they will not easily be led astray, it is not possible or desireable thai Catholics should seclude themselves from the rest i of the world; but it is both possible aDd | desirable that mixed marriages should be avoided. The incalculable amount of} harm done to the Catholic Church in this country through mixed marriages is ap paling. For example, in 1812 there came from Ireland a youug Catholic couple, who became the parents of eight children, seven of whom were sous. The only daughter married a Catholic, the sons married Protestants, aud to-day the chil dren of all these men are either indifl'erent or Protestant. It is a melancholy fact that the great number of children lost to the Church during the last half century is due to these mixed marriages." The Kearneyites in San Francisco have decided, by advice of Mayor Kalloch, to have no more sand lots meetings at pres ent, but to appoint a committee to confer with the Mayor. That oflicer prints a card saying that the workinginen were satisfied with the action of the Board of Health in regard to Chinatown and would ' see it properly carried out; but the cry of} "Vigilance Committee" had been raised, | the sand lots had angrily responded, and i the city was thus thrown into needless j agitation. The only danger to the city was from busy and wilful misrepresenta tion, and for this he held the Chinese Six Companies and the Chronical mainly re sponsible. He closed by saying that uei- ' ther his own utterances nor those of Kear-, ney or of speakers on the sand lot were to be understood as the voice of the work ingmen's party. At Sacramento Kear ney has been excluded from the state As sembly for threatening a member. N EURALGIA CURED BY DR. BURR'S NEURALGIA AND SICK HEADACHE PILLS.
