At the former trial Berton CORBY, one of the jurors, was taken ill. As Sheriff Harley E.

VAN de MARK, SCHWAB'S attorney, has agreed to permit the sheriff's testimony at the first trial to be read in full to the jury. SCHWAB, who worked for a department store as driver, took an automobile delivery for a joy ride on the day of the fatality, with several companions. Returning from Pittsford about 10:30 o'clock at night the automobile struck VAN VORST. ** BARRINGER - BORLAND James Isaac BARRINGER and Harriet Ann BORELAND, both of this city, were married Saturday by Rev.

The Daily News Batavia, Genesee County, New York State April 18-1899 FOUR NEW LAWS. Albany. The Governor signed a number of bills today, among them Senator BROWN's, to prevent the spread of bacterial diseases by permitting witnesses to dispense with the kissing of the Bible on the administration of oaths. Senator MARSHALL's, making it a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment for ten days or a fine of $10 to injure or open a fire hydrant. Senator FORD's, amending the tax law requiring tax collectors to notify non-residents of the time for receiving taxes. Senator FORD's, making it a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment for six months or $250 fine to adulturate natural fruit juices. + FATAL BIRTHDAY BEATING. New York. - Little Edna Jane MORROW, an 11-year-old child of Elizabeth, N.J., died yesterday as the result of a "birthday beating." St. Patrick's day was her natal day and a boisterous school boy of her class gave her 22 blows on her arm with the edge of a slate, 11 "to grow on." That the blows were not brutal is evidenced by children who were present and saw her laugh through the punishment. The arm grew numb, however, and was soon completely paralyzed. Then the side of the body became affected and the child lost consciousness. She died yesterday and the doctors said the blows had caused blood poisoning. + CASHIER MILLER'S ADVICE. Le Roy. - Mrs. Thomas PASSMORE of this village, formerly of Byron, is mourning the loss of $10, but is congratulating herself on the fact that she is not out $760. Three weeks ago last Saturday she called at the Bank of Batavia to secure $750 due her there on auction notes. She intended to draw the amount in currency, but was advised by Assistant-Cashier Andrew T. MILLER that it would be safer for her to take a New York draft for the sum. Luckily for her she did as advised. When she returned to Le Roy she stopped at T.B. TUTTLE's store on her way home, to make some purchases, paying for them at the time. When she left the store she supposed that she had with her her purse, containing the draft, tow $5 bills, and some small change. When she looked for the purse the following afternoon, however, it was not to be found. She thought she might have left the purse in the TUTTLE store, but John PARMALEE, the clerk who waited on her, informed her that he saw nothing of it after her departure. There were several other customers in the store when Mrs. PASSMORE was there. Mr. TUTTLE, who was in Washington at the time, has been thoroughly investigating the matter since his return, but no traces of the purse have been found thus far. The Bank of Batavia was promptly notified of the loss and unless the draft is recovered within thirty days a new one will be issued. The matter has been kept secret by the parties interested. + ELECTRIC ROAD TO THE LAKE. Charles A. KIBBE has another enterprise on foot. He is at work on a scheme for the construction of an electric railway from Batavia to Lake Ontario. He claims to be backed by capitalists who are anxious to risk their money in the project. The route of the proposed road is through Oakfield and Medina, with the northern terminas at Lakeside on the shore of the lake. Such a road would undoubtedly be of great benefit to Batavia and probably would result in the introduction of a street railway system in this village. + HERO OF THE CRIMEAN WAR. Henry SMITH, for many years a resident of Morganville, and who for a few years lived in Batavia, died last night at the County House, aged 78 years. Smith served in the Crimean War. He saw the historic charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava. + RUNAWAY ELBA BOY. Lloyd KULP, the 16-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles KULP of this village, disappeared from his home a number of days ago. His people did not know anything of his whereabouts until Saturday, when they received a communication from the lad, stating that he was at the Powers hotel in Rochester, where he had hired out for $15 a month and his "keep." When he left home young KULP had not a cent in his pocket and jumped a freight train at this place, riding as far as the Junction. There he got off and walked the remaining distance to Rochester, where he looked about for a job and struck his present situation at the Power. + ROBBED BY A WOMAN. Charles MITCHELL, said to be a Batavia young man, gets his name in the Rochester papers today. On his complaint, Annie AMDOURSKY, a notorious woman, was arrested yesterday, charged with robbing him of $75 in her rooms over the No. 122 State street on Sunday night. He had met the woman only a few hours before. He alleged that the woman removed his pocketbook from his pocket and extracted the money in spite of all he could not do to stop her. The woman denied the charge when arrested and her examination was set down for today. The only Charles MITCHELL in Batavia is a young barber living at No. 25 School street, who a week ago gave up his position in Bergman & Emery's shop in the Hotel Richmond and soon afterward left town to seek a new place. + CLAFQUIN LECTURED. Joseph CLAFQUIN of Darien, a hotelkeeper who was tried and convicted in County court in December, 1897, on charge of malicious injury to a Darien highway, but upon whom sentence was suspended, was arraigned in County court this morning for sentence. George Francis SHULTZ, who appeared for CLAFQUIN, addressed the Court, asking that sentence be again suspended, as CLAFQUIN had been thing to behave himself and not injure anyone since his conviction. Judge NORTH reprimanded CLAFQUIN and again suspended sentence. CLAFQUIN was arrested, tried and convicted for tearing up and destroying a sidewalk in Darien and since that time, it is said, he has been abusing and annoying in every possible way the people who testified against him on his trial. + MORE SOLDIERS RETURN. Joseph A. MICHAELS and Mortimer K. STRINGHAM of Company K, 202d Regiment, reached their Batavia homes late yesterday afternoon. Howard CARROLL of Alexander came with them. They expressed themselves as delighted to be home again and said they had no idea of re-enlisting. Fred W. GRIFFIS of Batavia, a private in Company K, arrived here at 12:40 o'clock this morning. He is enjoying good health, has not been sick a day since leaving Batavia and is much fleshier than when he enlisted. He spent yesterday in Rochester and started for Batavia on the train reaching here at 10:35 o'clock last night, but fell asleep and did not wake up until he reached Buffalo. He boarded the next train for Batavia. Alexander.-Howard CARROLL, son of Mr. and Mrs. Newton CARROLL, who was a member of Company H of the 202d Regiment, reached home last night. He is somewhat thinner than when he went away. For two weeks he has been suffering from malarial fever. Le Roy.-Charles H. VALENTINE, who was a private in Company K, 202d Regiment, arrived at his home in this village last night in excellent health and fine spirits. + STRUGGLE WITH DEATH. George PEDRO, a dealer in jewelry and spectacles, with an office at No. 320 Granite building, Rochester, is supposed to have attempted to commit suicide by inhaling gas at the Columbia boarding house, No. 5 Bank street, this morning. While the circumstances seem to bear out this supposition the boarding house people insist that the affair was purely accidental. PEDRO arrived at the Columbia about 6 o'clock last evening and asked for a room for the night. B.P. BIRD, the proprietor, escorted him to one on the south side of the house. PEDRO left two large grips which he had brought with him in the room and went downstairs to supper. After the meal he started to leave the house and Mr. BIRD gave him a latch key. PEDRO asked if there was a key to his room door, as he had some valuables which he did not wish to leave in his room unlocked. He locked his room door and then left the house, returning about 8:30 o'clock. He asked for a lamp. "We haven't any lamps," Mrs. BIRD said, "as three is gas in all of the rooms." "How do you light the gas?" PEDRO inquired. Mrs. BIRD went up to the room and after lighting the gas showed PEDRO how to turn it off. A few minutes afterwards Mr. BIRD heard the curtain pole fall in Mr. PEDRO's room, and his son, Clarence BIRD, went into the room and put the curtain back. After PEDRO had retired Eddie BIRD went to the stranger's room and turned out the gas. About 8 o'clock this morning Mr. BIRD went to the room to call PEDRO to breakfast. He rapped on the door several times, but failed to get any response. He went downstairs, but in a few minutes returned to the room, accompanied by Dr. LEWIS, the veterinary surgeon, who boards at the house. The men knocked, but nothing was heard except PEDRO's heavy breathing. The door and transom were locked. Mr. BIRD looked in through the transom and saw the man's clothes lying on the chair, but could not see the bed. At that time he did not detect the odor of gas,, but thinking that perhaps something was wrong, telephoned for Dr. BAKER. The physician arrived in a few minutes and with Mr. BIRD entered PEDRO's room through a window which is above a stoop. PEDRO was found lying on the bed. The gas jet was turned on full and the room was full of gas. PEDRO was in an unconscious condition, and artificial respiration was immediately resorted to. The room is about ten feet square and contains one window. Mr. BIRD went past the room about 5 o'clock, but did not notice any odor of gas, and as he did not detect any when he knocked at the door it is thought that the jet had been turned on only a short time. At 3 p.m. PEDRO was still unconscious and there had been no change in his condition. It is necessary to use artificial respiration nearly all of the time. Dr. Le SEUR has been called in consultation with Dr. BAKER and they agree that there is no evidence that his condition is due solely to the effects of the gas. PEDRO, who is a German, is a tall, heavily built man, about 40 or 45 years of age. He has a heavy, dark mustache and black hair and was well dressed. He wore a large diamond in his shirt front. + submitted by Linda C. Schmidt

He was well known throughout the county as a veterinary surgeon, and the announcement of his death will be read with regret by his friends. Cold weather and a fog robed the trees in beautiful feathery garments of pure white on Monday night last, and the morning revealed the orchards, the shade trees and the forest, transformed from dark, bare unattractiveness to objects of grand, imposing, inspiring beauty. It was as though the trees had passed from the sleep and death of mid-winter, to the life and blossoming of springtime in a single night. "All thy works shall praise Thee, O Lord." - Psalms CXLV:10.

In Bergen, early in the morning of Dec. 14th, in the 75th year of his age, this Christian minister and godly man entered into his rest. He was born in Richmond, N.H., but removed at an early age to the State of N.Y. He experienced religion in his fourteenth year and united with the South Baptist Church in Hamilton, N.Y. He was educated at Madison University; and his entire ministry, except three years in Adrian, Mich., was accomplished in the State of N.Y. Among the churches which he served were those in Watertown, Casville, Pulaski, Le Roy and West Middlebury. In 1870, on account of failing health, he retired from pastoral work, and found a pleasant home in Bergen. He, however, often preached, and was cordially welcomed into the pulpits of most of the Christian denominations. During the last years of his life he was permitted by the providence of God to worship with the Congregational Church in Bergen. He often occupied the pulpit of this church, was treated by the brethren of it with a rare cordiality and Christian fellowship, and was on the best of terms with its pastor. The present pastor, Rev. D.D. McCOLL, walked with him down to the very brink of the dark river, was loved by him with a peculiarity tender love, and showed himself in all respects a true brother. It was not possible for him, as it is not possible for his family, to express a sufficient gratitude to Mr. and Mrs. McCOLL for their constant and singular kindness. Mr. CRANE was a man of remarkable integrity, having always a good report of all men. He was a sound and effective preacher and a faithful and judicious pastor. During his ministry he baptised 500 to 600 persons of whom eleven became Christian ministers. When he knew that death was at hand, he was full of all Christian confidence and peace. His death was triumphant. It was a transition into glory. His wife and two sons survive him. The elder son is pastor of the First Baptist Church in Boston, and the younger is a practicing physician in Corfu. The eldest oldest son died some thirteen years ago. The funeral services were held in the Congregational Church, Bergen, Tuesday morning at 11 o'clock. The congregation took their last look at the features of the dead, whose voice they had often heard proclaiming the gospel. The body was taken to Corfu for burial. +++ submitted by Linda Schmidt

Troy Daily Times Troy, Rensselaer County, NY August 6, 1860 MARRIED On the 23d January, by the Rev. G.C. BALDWIN, D.D., Chas. L. PEACOCK to Julia WOODCICK, daughter of D.C. WOODCOCK, all of this city. DIED At Valley Falls, August 5th, William A. LAPE, son of Thomas and Martha A. LAPE, aged 8 months and 4 days. COULD NOT ATTEND The Citizens' Corps have received an invitation to attend the funeral of the late Major Morton FAIRCHILD today in New York, but in consequence of the coming encampment at Saratoga next week, the company were unable to go down. Under other circumstances the Corps would gladly have availed themselves of the sad privilege of paying their last respects to one who has been so intimately connected with the organization, and who has left behind him a memory fragrant with heroic deeds and generous actions. TEMPERANCE LECTURE Dr. JEWETT, of Boston, one of the ablest advocates of prohibition doctrines, delivered a temperance lecture in Rev. Dr. BALDWIN's church last evening to a very large audience. Dr. JEWETT is a forcible and eloquent speaker; and has evidently devoted much attention to the various phases of the subject. Of course, his views are radical, as are those of all the apostles of temperance doctrines. In early life, Dr. JEWETT was a resident of this city, and was employed at the Nail Factory. THEM We understand that several saloon keepers in West Troy are in a bad fix with regard to their licenses. It appears that instead of going for their licenses, they entrusted their business to a man named BUNN or BUDD, each giving him their thirty dollars. They now say that they are without their papers and cannot get them. One of the duped was in Albany before Justice COLE, on Saturday, endeavoring to procure a warrant for the arrest of this agent, but he was referred to the Justice of West Troy for redress. HAD HER POCKET PICKED A lady named Mary CALDWELL came up on the Hudson River road, in the sleeping car, on Friday night. Three very respectable dressed females occupied berths opposite her. When she awoke on Saturday morning, she discovered that her purse, containing $23, had been stolen. She notified the conductor. He instituted a search and the purse was found under the tier of berths, but the money had disappeared. No arrests were made. FACTS ABOUT LADIES Sarah BEEBE, a most respected young lady of New York, made three attempts to pass a worthless $5 bill on the Bank of Burlington, N.J., in stores on Greenwich st., NY., Saturday--thinking that the tradesmen who pronounced it bad were mistaken. The result is, that to her infinite mortification, she was arrested, and finds her name in the papers, It will not do to be too self-willed. A young lady in Mobile lately called upon her lawyer, and authorized him to institute proceedings, for breach of promise of marriage, against a gentleman who was to have tied the knot matrimonial with her on the evening previous, but had failed, from some cause or other, to come to time. The lawyer having occasion to step out of his office a moment, met the defendant, and informed him of the prospective hot water that was in store for him. The young gentleman declared that his omission of duty was entirely unintentional, and in no respect "wilful, malicious," &c., as the legal declaration charged. The lawyer thought that the affair might be compromised (strange advice for a lawyer)--the lady was still in his office, and he suggested an interview. The recreant lover willingly assented, and in a few moments the lady had expressed her willingness to accept him, instead of the $10,000 prospective damages to her affections. A new license and a willing justice completed the treaty of peace. ASSAULT George WILLIAMS and William BLAIR committed an unprovoked assault on Mrs. ALGER, in Lansingburgh, on Monday last, and were arrested for the offense. On being brought before Justice RANSOM of that village, this morning, they plead guilty and received a sentence of a fine of $12 or sixty-five days imprisonment each. Not liking the idea of being kept in durance vile [sic] that length of time, they 'forked over' the 'shiners.' ARRESTS Ann ROCKWELL has been arrested by officer. C.R. SQUIRE on a charge of petit larceny, in stealing one white sack, a pair of black mitts and a lace collars, the whole valued at $4.75. She is in jail. The same officer arrested Francis LOOP for assault and battery on his wife Almira, and the case will be tried on the morning of the 17th inst. Alexander MCLANE was also arrested and committed to jail by the same officer on Saturday for drunkenness, and has been suffering from an attack of the 'delirium tremens' since. POLICE COURT--Before Justice PARMENTER. Margaret MULCAHEY was sent to the Poorhouse for drunkenness. Elizabeth STOKES and Catherine KENNEDY, disorderly conduct; two small girls; lectured and discharged. Peter RICE was sent over for thirty days--in default of a fine of $15--for drunken and disorderly conduct. Thos. HALEY, refusing to support his wife; in jail. William STAPLETON, drunken and disorderly conduct; fined $10 or ten days--sent over. Elizabeth BLONDIN complained of Matilda GEER for assault and battery, but not being able to prove it, the defendant was discharged. Thomas REYNOLDS, drunkenness; took the pledge for one year and was let off. Thomas HEENAN (no relation to the "Be-ne-kee Boy") was up for assault and battery on James HICKEY, and complainant failing to appear, he was discharged. Four boys named Martin KENDRICK, Peter MCCARTY, Patrick FITZGERALD and Michael CONWAY, were in Court for throwing stones at Jesse J. MILLS. It appeared that these boys were in the habit of throwing missiles at passers-by. Justice PARMENTER lectured them severely, and then discharged them on their promise to behave better in the future; and told them if they did so again, they would get a taste of the House of Refuge.

Rochester, Monroe, NY Democrat & Chronicle Mar 9, 1914 Fractured Skull; Not Intoxicated Thomas O'MARA, of Holley, Probably Murdered Found In A Stairway Patrolman Thinks Him Intoxicated and Takes Him to Lockup — When Still Unconscious at Noon. Calls Physician But Death Soon Follows Holley, March 8 - Thomas O'MARA, the 25-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. John O'MARA who reside about two (2 lines unreadable) afternoon at the home of his brother, William O'MARA, who resides in Thomas street in this village, of injuries sustained when he was struck by some small blunt instrument and his skull fractured. His assailant is unknown. When Constable William WEBSTER went into the Village building shortly (line unreadable) the bottom of the stairs he found young O'MARA lying on his back with his hands upon his breast, and breathing loudly. His face was smeared with blood. As WEBSTER had found him in an intoxicated condition on previous occasions, he thought that it was the same old story and took him into the lockup, covered him with blankets and started a fire. He paid no more heed to him thinking that he would soon wake up. About noon when WEBSTER found the young man unconscious, he summoned a doctor, who also thought that he was under the influence of liquor, but gave directions that he should be given attention. Early in the afternoon his brothers were notified and about 3 o'clock he was taken to his brother's home where, shortly after the doctor arrived, he died without regaining consciousness. There are a number of conflicting stories concerning the affair and it is said that early Friday evening, accompanied by a chum, O'MARA went to Clarendon to attend a dance, but as no dance was held that evening, he returned to this village and went to his brother's house. A number of nearby residents claim that about 12 o'clock they heard loud talking and scuffling and soon after saw O'MARA come out of the house and start toward the Public Square, but no one has yet been found who saw him after he left the house. His chum with whom he had been around that evening was found in an intoxicated condition near Murphy's coal office on Midway and was taken into Ludington's restaurant. The horse which the young men drove was found about 3 o'clock in the morning by Nightwatch SHEPHERD, who could find no clue to the owner. Last night the body was taken to the undertaking rooms of H. E. TURNER & Co., of this village, and this afternoon an autopsy was held by Coroner Clarence C. NESBITT. He issued a certificate of death due to a fracture caused by some small blunt instrument striking the head over the temple region. There was also a bruise on his jaw and his lip was badly cut. An inquest will be held. Considerable mystery shrouds the whole affair as no clue yet has been found as to the whereabouts of O'HARA after he left his brother's home. He was 25 years old and was born in the town of Clarendon, November 26, 1889. He always resided there and was known as a quiet, hard working fellow. He leaves his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John O'MARA, of Clarendon; five brothers, John, of Clarendon; William, of this village; James, of Niagara Falls; George and Nicholas, of Clarendon; one sister, Mary, of Rochester. The funeral will probably be held Monday. * Death of William E. TOOLE Life long Resident of Rochester and well-Known Dry Goods Man William E.

Rochester, Monroe, NY Rochester Republican June 28, 1849 Death Of Samuel F. GERE - Capt. Samuel F. GERE, one of the earliest pioneers of Western New York died at his residence in Medina, on the 16th inst., aged 76 years. Captain GERE, we learn, was a member of the first Grand Jury ever empanelled west of the Genesee River, and as early as 1806, he assisted in building a saw mill at Medina Falls. He resided at that time in Batavia, and in 1824 he removed to Medina, then a wilderness, where he has since resided, and reared a family of the highest respectability. Several of his daughters are married to some of the best and most worthy citizens of that place. Capt. GERE'S life was one of enterprise and usefulness, and he has left a good name, and will long be remembered by many, as a kind neighbor, an affectionate friend, and an honest and honorable man. - [Orl. American.] * The Last Hours Of Ex-President POLK - A dispatch dated Cincinnati, June 19, says: The latest intelligence we have by mail is, that Ex-President POLK died at Nashville on the 15thinstant at 40 minutes past 4 o'clock in the afternoon. His disease was what is termed chronic diarrhea, and not cholera, as reported in some instances. He was sensible to the last, and the calmness and serenity of mind that were evinced during his dying moments, gave evidence of a heart at peace with God and man. * The packet-ship American Eagle, from London for New York, with 300 emigrants, put into Plymouth on the 6th of June - having 20 cases of cholera on board, and 7 deaths. * There were 5 cases of cholera in Philadelphia on Saturday, and 2 deaths. * A Seducer Shot - A young man named HODGSON, from the interior of Georgia, was arrested in Savannah on the 10th inst., charged with an assault, with intent to commit murder, on the Rev. Thomas BENNING, of Savannah. It appears that a sister of HODGSON was placed under the care of BENNING while traveling, and was seduced by him. HODGSON repaired to the house of BENNING, and shot him with a pistol - not, however, dangerously. HODGSON was committed, on the 12th inst., to answer the charge of assault, but was discharged on giving bail in $1000. Not less than $60,000 was offered to him, if he wanted it, by persons who were entire strangers to him - [Boston Post.] * Francis GRANGER, of Canandaigua, in this State, an ultra Clay man, is at Washington begging of Mr. CLAYTON the appointment of Minister to Russia. The assurance of this everlasting office beggar is remarkable. No man in the Western part of this State has met with disappointment equal with him. Ever since SEWARD and WEED cheated him in the nomination for Governor, he has been on the wrong side of the State. - No fitter representative of Whiggery could go to Russia - we hope he will be sent. - [N. Y. Globe.] * A Curious Case Of Small Pox - The N. Y. Globe describes the case of "a daughter of one of our most eminent merchants, a beautiful and accomplished woman, recently married, who rode home in a hired hack, was oppressed with the odor of vinegar pervading the vehicle, and on reaching her own residence was attacked with small pox, and in a short time was a corpse." * The Pensacola Gazette says that at the last term of the Circuit Court of that place, the negro girl Rachel, Slave of Capt. BAKER, was convicted of an attempt to fire her master's house. She was sentenced to have her ears nailed to a post for one hour, and to receive thirty-nine lashes, which sentence has been carried into effect! * Execution - WOOD, who is now confined in New York jail, for poisoning his wife, and JONES a colored man, convicted of arson, are to be executed in New York to-day, unless executive interferance should postpone the execution or commute the sentence, neither is probable, as it is said that Gov. FISH has positively declined to interfere with the course of the law. * Death Of A Veteran Printer - Mr. Hezekiah HURLBUTT, a well known Journeyman Printer of this city, died suddenly yesterday morning at the age of 51. Mr. H. has, we believe, been employed at the Democrat office for more than twelve years. The funeral was attended by a large number of his fellow-craftsmen, at 6 o'clock last evening. * >From Mexico - An arrival at New Orleans with dates to the 7th, from Vera Cruz, brings intelligence that large numbers of Mexicans are emigrating to California. The Mexican Congress were discussing a bill appropriating the eight millions dollars indemnity from the United States, towards the payment of internal improvements. * Flour, Wheat and Corn Passing Eastward. - We are indebted to R. d. HOWELL, Esq., Weigh Master, for the following amount of Grain passing Eastward, for the thirteen days ending and including the 19th: Flour....................107,886 bbls Wheat.................. 54,934 bu. Corn.....................405,235 " * The Fourth At Buffalo - The officers of the 65th regiment N. Y. S. M. met on Monday evening at the armory of company D., and resolved to celebrate the next anniversary of American Independence by a regimental parade. Can't the "Bloody 178th" do as much in this city? * Cholera At Saratoga - John W. CARPENTER, Esq., son of Benjamin CARPENTER, Esq., of Newburg, died at Saratoga Springs, of Cholera, on Monday. This will tend to unsettle the minds of those who have fled to the Springs to escape the disease. * Fatal Accident - James KING, a lad of 14 years, employed on the steamer Buffalo, was killed on the boat at Albany on Saturday morning, while in the wheel-house bathing, by a revolution of the wheel, which crushed his head between the wheel and roof. * Another Enemy Punished - General TAYLOR has removed from the consulship of Santiago de Cuba Major Wm HOLDING, a native of Baltimore, who was an aid of Col. MILLER at the battle of Lundy's Lane, and a gallant soldier. * The Albany Journal says that Gov. FISH has commuted the sentence of JONES, convicted of murder at New York, to imprisonment for life, at the request of a deputation of gentlemen from N. York. * Gold - We saw yesterday, a specimen of California gold, a lump of about ten grains weight. - It came in a letter to a friend of ours in this city, from his brother, who has been several months at the mines. * MARRIED In Burns, June 16th, by J.
