*****************************

MARRIED --- on Sunday, 20th May, by Jas. BARCLAY, Esq.; John F.
BORCHERS to Rebecca SEAMS, both of San Antonio.

MARRIED -- at Vallecito, May 23d, by Rev. Mr. HARGAS; Samuel HAFFORD
to Miss Elizabeth HOHENSCHILD.

DIED in the WOODS -- Dr. J.C. TEACH, a man aged about 55 years, was
found dead near McNair's ranch, above Cave City, on the 17th inst. He
had been employed in the woods cutting down a tree and was found
about half-way between where he had been at work and the Table
Mountain ditch, by Mr. McNAIR, at whose house deceased was stopping.
It is presumed he had gone for a drink and on his return toward the
tree dropped down dead. Everything indicated that he died without a
struggle, as his hat was still on his head and the soft ground was
undisturbed save by his footsteps. This is one account. Another
gentleman writes us that "the probable cause of his death was the
drinking of poisonous and adulterated liquor, a bottle of which
(partly consumed) he had at the time." What was left in the bottle
has been sent to San Francisco to be analyzed. Deceased was a native
of Pennsylvania, removed thence to Wheeling, Va., resided both in
Ohio and Indiana, and came to this State in 1850.

UNFORTUNATE -- Mr. STAVELY, whose leg was crushed in the Deep Cut at
Murphys last week, of which we gave an account on the 19th inst., had
arranged his business and was on the point of starting to his home in
the Atlantic States when the accident happened. His disappointment
was terrible and in the agony of his soul he prayed for death.

NEW STAGE LINE to CARSON VALLEY -- It is said that DILLON & Co., of
Stockton, will put a line of stages on the Big Tree road by the
middle of June. They intend to make the trip to Stockton to Carson
Valley in 2 days.

MANESSES BRADLEY -- The brother of this person (an Irishman), living
in Bastrop, Texas, is anxious to hear of his whereabouts. If this
should meet his eye, he will do himself a favor by communicating with
John C. BUCHANAN, Bastrop, Texas.
