He leaves a large circle of friends and relatives to mourn his loss.] HIGHWAY ROBBERY – G.W. PORTER, of Chile Gulch, Calaveras county, arrived in this city yesterday and informs us that, on his way down, at a point on the Mokelumne Hill road, about a mile west of the North American, or near the place where Mr. EBERHART was shot on the stage and killed by some robbers some time ago, a man suddenly rushed from the bushes, with a cocked revolver in hand and ordered him to "stop" and deliver his purse. Mr. PORTER was making his way to this city with a 1-horse buggy and stopped at once as commanded by the villain who pointed the pistol at his head. Under the influence of such persuasion the demand to deliver the purse Mr. P. promptly complied with; and while in the act of taking it out of his pocket, the robber, who was then standing on the ground with his pistol leveled on his victim, quickly put the pistol in his belt, drew a dirk-knife, stepped up on the wheel of the buggy, raised the knife with 1 hand and eagerly extended the other to grab th! e cash, seemingly pleased with his luck, as its bulk indicated the amount the leather sack contained to be quite large. It was in silver, however, and amounted only to about $20. When the highwayman emptied the sack and discovered the money was in silver, he quietly remarked to Mr. PORTER, "You travel d—d light." PORTER then told him that the sack had long been in his possession and was a sort of favorite, and he therefore would like to have it returned; and likewise said that he was on his way to Stockton and had no money left to pay his expenses, whereupon the "road agent" handed him back $2. The scoundrel had his head covered with a handkerchief, with holes only for him to see through, and wore a blue flannel shirt and overalls over his pantaloons. He is described as being stoutly built and of medium size; and from what Mr. PORTER could observe of his eyes, he thinks that the villain's complexion is dark. Mr. PORTER was wholly unarmed, which was very unfortunate, as wh! en the robber put up his pistol and drew a knife, a good opportunity w as afforded to have shot him dead. MORE of the DISTILLERY NUISANCE – J.B. HENRY was before Justice Brown yesterday and bound over in the sum of $500 to answer before the next Grand Jury to a charge made in the following complaint: "Personally appeared before me this day, Thomas CUNNINGHAM, who says that in this county on the 3rd day of April, 1866, the crime of creating and maintaining a nuisance was committed by one J.B. HENRY, to wit: Distilling of liquor, the smell of which is intolerably offensive, rendering the enjoyment of life and property uncomfortable in the neighborhood to a large number of persons, and offensive and unwholesome to the city and neighborhood thereabouts; all of which is contrary to the form of the statute in such case made and provided, against the peace and dignity of the people of the State of California. And deponent therefore prays that a warrant may be issued for the arrest of the said J.B. HENRY, and that he may be dealt with according to law. (Signed) Thomas CUNNINGHAM. Subs! cribed before me this 3rd day of April, 1855. A.G. BROWN, Justice of the Peace." A complaint against the same party, in relation to the same matter, was entered before Justice Baldwin yesterday by J.S. JARVIS. Mr. HENRY, the party complained against, says that he has men at work clearing out the sewer leading from the distillery and thinks that as soon as that is effected, the stench will cease. He says that unless the sewer is cleaned the stench would continue, even if the distillery were removed. But he will remove the distillery altogether if the nuisance cannot otherwise be abated.
