Mat Qbenchain, just from a ride over the Butte creek range says that the loss of cattle and horses in that section may now be fair ly estimated at twenty-five per cent. Grass is springing up finely and he an ticipates no further loss .on that range. J Street Improvements. We notice ihat Dr. Aiken has just completed a substantial stone sidewalk in front of his property on California street. This kind of walk is very much cheap er, in the long run, than plank and all walks should he replaced with it when j Jiecessary. -CnANOE or Y.ENBE. Tho .case of Bvbee .

It is now generajly conceded that the heavy freeze has nearly ruined the peach orchards of this county and we do not hear of a single tig tree that has survived the Winter. T)0 pelehratjon of the Order of Red Men to be held on the 12th of May bids fair to be the finest affair of the kind ever held here. A large number of Yreka frjends will participate. Crop prospects are very fair at pres ent in this county. In many localities grain, especially "volunteer" is looking well and a little warm weather is all that is needed to give it a splendid start The late freshet in Bear creek has done considerable damage, several fords are washed out and the current has cut seriously into valuable fields. Brush and stone levees might be of ad vantage, Fire was discovered in th rear of Breckenfield's store last Wednesday morning, but as the 'Times" stated, its force turned out en masso, and lit tle damage was done by either the boys or the fire. the Yreka "Journal" says, "the measles are prevalent in Jacksonville." Not at all, only two cases and they are convalescing. The most prevalent com plaints here are political "boring" and scarcity of money.

Our neighlor thinks wo are "apeing" another Oregon journal. It may seem J so, as intelligence usually follows iden tical channels.

The hall is capable of .seating 500 persons and will supply a want long felt Frank Krause our good looking "pard'' is wandering in the Northern part of the State, and to-day will, no doubt, distinguish himself in tho State Convention. He can stand more good treatment than any one we know of and expects it Census enumerators will be appointr ed about May 1st It is probable that four or five will be appointed for this county. Applications for appointments are wait ted from Lake and Josephine counties by the Supei visor II. F. Sucks dorf at Portland. The press on the Pacific Coast is a unit against any restrictions on the letter carrying business of W. F. it Co. That company as carriers, pay as much to te Government on each letter as private individuals, and is regarded as safer than tho P. O. Department. In Washinton, the word "democ racy" is a misnomer. Under Repub lican rule, the Senate and House gal laries were free of access, now it is impossible for a poor man to enter either without being imu ted by the flunkies who guard the entrances. The San Francisco "Chronicle" has just issued a handsomely hound history of its birth, struggles and great success as a newspaper.

It contains all decisions by the commissioner of the Land Office, or thp Secretary of the Interior and it is dif ficult o see how a lawyer can do with out it John Cimborsky, President of the "Eintracht" society, wishes all Ger mans, both ladies and gentlemen, to meet at Veit Schntz' hall on May 2d, at 2 o'clock p. M. The object of the meeting is to device some means of encouraging the speaking of the Ger man language. A full attendance is desired. The "Tidings" relates an unsuccess ful attempt to steal two horses from Wm. Brown near Ashland on the even ing of Sunday, he 11th inst. The same paper says that on Saturday even ing some thief stole eight or ten bush els of oats frcm Thos. Smith's barn, so it is quite probable the fellow found a surplus of grain on his hands and tried to steal some horses to eat it. MINI'S U ITEHS. Green. Bros are engaged on a -jnnel which will strike their ledge (the.lugar Pine) fifty feet deeper. The tuniel is now in a vein that prospects very flatteringly. As soon as completed the arastras will again he started. Wm. Griffin brought some yery good quartz to town, lost week, frofn a new ly discovered ledge on Shann's creek in Josephine county. Itt'is similar to that of the Sugar Pine, very much de composed and showing a little free gold. The hydraulic eleator, of DeSilles, worked on his claim in Scotch gulch near Waldo continues to be a success, the only fault being lack of a large sup ply of water to run a larger sized dis charge pjpe. The claim is said to be yielding richly. The Sterling Company have at last commenced piping in the rich ground ionffer'y vorked by Hayden and Cameron. The whole efforts of Supt Ennis since last Fall, hav bten direct ed to- the opening of a'pit to this ground, and he expects uninterrupted work in it for the balancof the sea son. -" !?- From J. 3L Johnson.-.Crescent City, we learn that tW"lwr Gold Bluff claim is yielding 1,000 per day. This property, located beloW the mouth of Klamath on the ocean beach, is one of the first beach claims worked having been operated in 1851. Its yield has been fluctuating, depending on the amount of auriferous sand deposited by the ocean swell, hut jt has always been considered a valuable propertj. Last week we made a visit to the claim of Wimer & Simmons at Wado and are satisfied that its richness has not been exaggerated. The "pay streak" is a bed of red loam and sand, containing very few boulders, that melts easily before the- hydraulic pipe. It is a stratum near ten feet in thick ness that will average fully four dol lars per cubic yard. The gulch, in which the claim is, has been stripped, many years ago. paying wages ith a pick and shovel, but the best of the pay was never touched and really not dis covered till a few weeks since. The claim will not be fairly opened before August and will then show a depth of about forty feet and we believe will bo one of the most valuable claims in Southern Oregon. lr.M'O BUAII ML1.TIM'. . Pursuant to the call of the co mrait tee a meeting was held at the Court House on April 17th, and Mr. C. C. Beekman called to the chair with Jerry Nunan and Max Muller secretaries. E. H. Autenrieth then stated that Jerry Nunan, Wm. M. Turner, "and J. S. Hovard had, on behalf of the Jackson county committee, n conference with like comuurtecs from Joseph ine and Del Norte counties and called "for u ltpoit hicfeiJtfts.4c hy 51 r. Nunan. The report was to the effect that the thrte committees hud de cided to select the very best route from Waldo to Ciescent City, appointed viewers, and engaged Mr. Howard to make a final survey of the route at once, each county to bear one third of the expense. On motion, the commit tee was then directed to call for ten per cent of the subscriptions to defray the expense of the survey and author ized to deduct the same from tho orig inal amount. The action of the com mittee representing Jackson county at the conference at Waldo was then ratified and approved, Max Muller ap pointed to solict subscriptions in San Francico and the meeting adjourned subject to call.

He falsely represented him self as Lieut. Miller,- en route for Ft Klamath, but started South on Tues day mornin;, leaving his hotel bill un settled, having previously forwarded his valise per stage to Ammerman's station. Suspicion was aroused and it was thought that he might bo one of tho Vashington Territory murderers, now wanted by the sheriff of Whit man county, and Marshal Crosby and Justice Huffer started in pursuit Ho was overhauled near the Eaglo Mills but there being some doubt about his answering tho description, he was lowed to pass on.

The "Baron"' -speaks spveral languages, English indifferently, and is evidently a man of culture. He is said to be a dead beat and, at all events, is a first class liar and it is safest to give him a wide berth. The above description will enable our California neighbors to "spot" him, as he has gone thither. Granville Naylor's fine "SHgarf stallion will be at the owner's ranch, thrpe and a half miles East of Jackson ville every day, except Saturdays, and on the lattpr days will stand at the stable of Cardwell fe Son in this place.

Examine foryourself and let common sense guide you in your se lection, always remembering that the best is the cheapest. Many thousauds-of persons have purchased inferior ma chines, used them a month or two, and then traded them ofTat one-fourth their cost, simply because they did not stand thf test wben in practical use. That old reliable machine, the Singer, has stood the test for thirty-five years, and has never been found wanting when called upon to do any kind of work.
