Death finallj Icame to nun. as a reuex, ana bunk into the slumber that knows nc waking.

I During the twelve yean that Mr Lane was a resident of Petal uma he won many friends and made but few lenemies.

As a writer for the Abges and as agent for the Associated Press in this city, he never tired in giving to the reading aommnuity all the praise possible of the city and county that he had adopted as his home, and whioh he loed so well As a man he was true, as a husband faithful, as a father kind and in- Kdnlgent, apd as a friend warm, gen erous and brave.

When this, their only object, was accomplished and the streani began to dry up, earnest work wasi begun by the many honest, thoughtful men in the Convention, which still continues and will 8 top when the work hasjteen completed. As the Aegub has before stated, almost everything has been brought to the notice of the Convention. During the past two or three weeks a constant debate has been carried on respecting the man agement of th great corporations of tho State, especially railroads. The subject has been looked at from every stand-point, and many entirely dissimilar plans have been proposed in accordance with which members have thought the highest interest of Ithe people would be found, The subject is one of the most difficult that can engage the attention of a body of law-makers, requiring the most intimate knowledge of all the distinctions between corporations formed entirely for private pur poses, those partly private but con nected with the public, and those of which the public should hate con trol.

This subject brought hut the characteristics of the Convention. The leading speakers have informed themselves fully regarding the matter; all available sources of informa tion, both of this and other coun tries being taken; and we haVe reason to expect that the experience of the last twenty-five years in other States will be so modified and re adjusted as to give to the people of this State everything of benefit that is possible to be obtained Jt is too early to draw any conclu sion as to the rejection or adoption of the new Constitution, although there are a few papers in the State that have taken considerable I offense at one or two amendments proposed, and have hinted that these would be sufficient for a rejection. Wlfen the Convention adjourns the people will then have time and opportunity to study its various provisions before giving the final decision. ClNNIBAB XS THE BuHKELEY HlLLS. A resident of Berkeley yhile sink ing a tunnel in the hillside above bis house for the purpose of getting a supply of water, on Friday last, when a distance of two hundred feet had been reached, his workmen struck a vein of soft rock which showed every sign of being heavily impregnated with quicksilver.

The tunnel is sitqated nearly a mle east of the terminus of the stem railroad in Berkeley, and some 200 feet below the summit of the hill. Experts say the rock certainly contains cinnibar. An assay will be made to-day. Cobn and Pumpkins.

"Joft Yengling of this city, has reeeivod a letter from F. McQowan, who left hers some weeks ago for The letter ia dated at Cannon City, Hot. X6th.

To nae hi own langoage, "ttt time you open your month it costs you one From Tomales Bay to Cannon CUy eeeU for freight fM per ton. Cannon CHy ia a town 20 years old, and the county seat of Fremont County, and ia situated at thebaeeof the Rocky Mountaiaa, on the Arkansas, river. "The country as 1 for 800 mites lays out of doors; bat few ranches are inclosed, and they must be irrigatednothing grows without irrigation. For S00 miles the country is barren, no timber, not even riding switch.

A' gentleman at Cheyenne told me that his cattle ranged 125 miles, that once a year they were rodeaied Into the nearest corral, the calves branded, etc. More grass will grow on 600 acres in California than will on acres in this part of Colored e. I ant informed that 50 miles down the Arkansas river from here there is a fine grass country, but I have not yet visited it." In speaking of the reeSat. great "silver cliff discovery near Cannon City, the writer says: "This city (Cannon) is nothing but a big village, or an old mining town; take awaj the mining interests and it would not be worth a cent. No doubt ere this you have heard of the big silver cliff discovery, within 30 miles of this place.

It is a cliff, not under ground, as is usual for mineral to be found, but it is a high cliff at the foot-hills of the Rocky Mountains. The discovery ia estimated to be worth four or five million dollars, and there is no telling its true value. It was found by accident on a main wagon road, where hundreds of miners have passed and re-passed for years. The excitement far supasses anything in the annals of Colorado mining. Already 8,000 miners are prospecting through and around the cliff, and making some valuable discoveries.

Gamblers, cut-throats and thieves have put in an appearance, and three or four men have been killed. The little, quiet village of Cannon City, a few weeks ago was hardly inhabited; its streets will now equal if not surpass Kearny or Montgomery streets in 'Frisco. One hundred freight teams can be seen on the streets at one time. Provisions of all kinds very high, as this country produces nothing but beef and a little hay. Land is cheap here.

I was offered 160 acres with improvements and 50 acres planted with fall wheat, at $25 per acre. 8o far as I have seen, I would not advise any one to leave California to come here, though up to this time I have seen nothing of the country save as I passed through on the cars, but I would rather be a door-keeper in California than dwell in a palace in Colorado. In 800 miles I did not see a fruit tree or an orchard. Game is plenty, that is black-tailed deer and cinnamon bear; what is singular, there are no birds in the country. This is a dry ooantry; it rftins but little, with some snow.

The mountains are covered with snow all winter." LETTER FROM VKIAH. Eds. Now and then something occurs which may be of interest to your readers, and I note them accordingly.

J. Shrum, who was Bhot at that place some four months ago.

Mrs. Shrum is supposed to be an accessory in connection with the Anthonys in the murder of her husband. She is the daughter of a Baptist minister, rather prepossessing in appear-noa and quite intelligent. The examination developed the fact that an attachment had sprung up between Mrs, Shrum and James Anthony, and the objeot was to put the husband out of the way. The examination lasted over a week, and the magistrate, notwithstanding the fact that Mrs.

Shrum i the mother of a child but three weeks eld, ordered all the parties to be sent to jail Without bail, to await the action of the Grand Jury. FllAH Crrv, Nov, 178. ReaTjiCPTion.

Buggies, the young highwayman of Stockton, has been sent to an Quentiu for a term of seven years.

This young fellow, says the Herald, iseighteen years of age. He in early Iffe, acquired demoralizing habits and stimulated them by almost constantly reading the flashy literature that is found in the illustrated criminal papers, and the class of juvenile literature that abounds in hair-breath escapes and perils by land and sea. The Stockton Herald of November 20th says: The Street Commissioner and Chairman of the Street Committee had a chance yesterday to test the burning desire of a great many idle men to work for $2 50 per day.

The most of those whom they attempted to engage refused to work unless the Street Commissioners would pay them at night for their work.

Considerable excitement exists in Chicago on account of a rumor to the ef fect that certain heavy speculators including James B. Keene, of California, had purchased wheat to the extent of many million bushels, andl that an effort would be made to con trol the market at the opening of the next season. Mr. Keene is reported to have been engaged in such opera tions before. On the declaration of war between Russia azjd Turkey he had about 1,500,000 bushels that he sold for a large advance.

At present he is said to have purchased near six million bushels, paying cash for the whole lot, requiring an outlay of over four million dollars. Pbohpt Actios.
