were encamped on thtntlver trodden , about
four miles from the cointnlraloncr's qmr-
ters and the postolHco at Forest creek. Not
withstanding nil our previous reading on th ?
subject. It appeared very strange to us that
this should bo the hottest season cf tiio year
and that the sun should stand duo north at
noon ! ,
Wo were nil comparatively "new chums"
as yet. and knew little about dlRglng a cir
cumstance which may account for the * fact
that twenty of us had formed ourselves Into
3 company , nnd were then engaged In cut-
tlriK a hug-o trench across an elbow of the
river , with t'ne Intention of diverting It Into
a new channel arid thus obtaining access
to Its bed at a point where , striking ngalnst
a high ledge of rock , the stream turned nt
right angles to Its hlthorward course.
Very naturally , we supposed that hero
would bo lodged much fine gold , as I have
no doubt was actually the case , though the
men who completed tlie big ditch never got.
It ; for , as I long afterward learned , when
they reached bed reck , tlio found It to He
several feet higher than the bottom of the
pool ; which , consequently , coiild not be
drained without n tbo risky expenditure In
the way of gunpowder and blasting , as well
as labor.
The trench ran through an alluvial deposit
of black soil , and our little company had al
ready worlttd eighteen days on It ; bill ,
ns events proved , had made the
fatnl mistake of not giving sufficient slcpa
to Its walls.
On that N'ow Year monllng , slxtern of our
twenty went to work as usual , while the
two men whoso tVeck It was to cook busied
theiiu-elves In TircparliiK a gala dinner , lo
consist of an normous sirloin of beef , roasted
by being suspended from a twisted woJen
string and kept constantly revolving bjfore
an Inimraso fire ; and a mighty plum pudding
the latter having been placed In a great
Iron bucket and put on to boll at sunrise.
Moreover , In order to enhance the pudding's
glory and make It more closely rcsamble
tbo genuine holiday article , onr of cur fel
lows , with moro money than discretion , had.
the evening before , tramped eight inllos tea
a squatter's station nnd bought nine- fresh
eggs at the moderate price of a half crown
(60 ( cents ) each ! These , . In due course beaten
Into tlw preparatory batter , were the only
hen's eggs I ever saw duringmy whole sJ-
Joiirn In the Australian gold fields , though
after a while WB got In the Way of having
a plum pud.llng and a good one , too every
Sunday , as we always had lots of suet ; atid
all the other Ingredients , except the really
superfluous cggy , wera to be had at any store
en any diggings shopkeepers being Invariably
among the first to tak ? advantage of a
"rush. "
isow it Happened UiaU both my especial
chum , Fred Hess , and I-Omd S3ntlmental ob
jections to working on New Year's day ; BOu
clodded to walk ovi r W the Forest Creek
( Castlsmaln ) postolllce. then a canvas tent ,
not oao of our crowdJliatlng as yet received
a slngJo letter from . .home. Wo thought It
likely that some mlgljt ) tjSJto besn by this time
forwarded from Melbourne , nnd , as we were
all becoming terrlblyMhomesiick , their receipt
was hourly prayed for with an intens * longing
easily understood by- any one separated , as
wo then were , from wmntry and kindred by
the waters , of three great oceans.
It Is a trite paying nhat we never know
what Important ev < SiUs"may ; follow , or bo
averted by , our most ; | rfya ] acts an axiom
which Hess and I at least have.good reason
to bear In inlmtj fpr'atfur abstention from
work : on that parttculft Im- undoubtedly oaVed
-our HVJOA , . . , l/r * ' .
When wi > left the hodden at ! < o'tlockMn the
forenoon,1 the trendix' 'dp about ' forty-live
feet long , twenty feet wl'dg at tile top , four
teen at the bottom , and twslve dep. Midway
on one bank was fixed' ' a sort of platform
cf poles , on which.otood thro * men , to receive
and throw the others on the surface the soft
earth tossed up from below by the three bottom
tom diggers , tws of whoso places would as
usual have been occupied by Fred and tny-
self If wo had titayed at work.
Well , wa were returning. In great spirits ,
from Castlcmaln a little after npon , with a
goodly number of letters , and on coming to
the brow of the hill overlooking our camp ,
expected to iee the boys seated , dich one
with a tin plate on his lap , Impatiently await
ing our arrival to begin dinner.
What \\o did BSD was this : All the men
on that diggings standing motionless In a
ring , and gazing down upon something In
their midst , as yet Invisible to us.
Struck by an omlnouy foreboding , our mer
riment iniddenly ceasedi and we rushed down
the slope at breakneck speed.
Tbo gravely circle opened on our approach-
and there , stretched dead upon th ? ground ,
lay the bodies of the three bottom worker * ,
Just extracted from beneath the treacherous
landslide which had overwhelmed them Ir
less than twenty minutes after our departure
It secnu < that , without the slightest pre
monitory crack or crumble , one wall of the
trench not that on the platform side had
caved In and burled the poor fellows under
tens upon tonu of black earth ; nnd , them-
irfvcvi in deadly danger from the other bank ,
It , had taken tlio whole farce of nearly 1UU
men , working In relays , three 'hours to ex
hume the remains.
Thua our joy was turned , t mourning ;
but men cxliaustod by physical labor musl
cat , and the dinner was finally partaken of
In melancholy'silence. . Then , as It was now
the middleof the Australian sum
mer , wo tenderly washed the bodies
or our dead comraueg in tnu
river and shrouded them as decently as our
scant resources would permit.
While disrobing the quite mutilated forms ,
Mono of us could refrain from pitiful tears on
finding that close to each lorovcr sillied
heart was hidden a memento of homo In thu
shape of a daguerreotype of mother , rlster
or. sweetheart who never again , in this
world , might behold the face of her beloved
wanderer ,
The last rays of the setting sun still phone
upon tlio summit of the adjacent hill , when ,
side by side , wo laid all that \v.ir mortal of
our into companions In a def > p grave therein
dug , while over the lonely cep'ilchro ono
of us reverently read the Church of England
burial service ; which , to me nt least , lind
lover before seemed so grandly beautltul and
Impressive.
That night , whllo the-seventeen of us who
were left sat around the camp fire , young
Hosa said :
"Roys" ( wo were all friends and never yet
: mil ueed among ourf&lves 'the ordinary dig
ger appellation of 'Sirttflb" ) , "this U a cad
ending of our first ApXjrallan N'ow Year' *
day. Maybe it will cheer us up tome If I
tell you of ono which , Id Canada two jears
ago , turned out moreJJiipjilly. "
There waa a genera't ffi of "Da , Fred , do , "
and the boy began : -Vr /
"Somo of you knoA' 'that my home Is In a
jackwoods township1 , "tfbout tlghty miles
northwest of Toronto-und not far from
Georgian bay. My fA'th'Gr' ' , who ivaa formerly
a captain In a regiment of ItritUh cavalry ,
sold his commission1 , In' ) K42 ahd ( migrated
.0 Canada , where hojbaught a COO-acre. par-
.lally cleared farm , nvjshlng to give his live
joys and four girls "a-Detter choneo In life
than a family.In inpijorate rlrcum'star.ces
can have In the old country. I , vas only 8
rears of age then , and my baby sister not
mlf as many monthsT" !
"My mother , " ( I wUh. , I ' .ould convey an
dea of how tenderly Fred spoke Hint wcrd
vlienever occurring In his story ) , "though a
Iny little thing , who wears a number 2 booj
iml a five-and-a-half glove , Is' a's brave as an
ndlan princess , and she and my father are
"
ust like lovers yet. So wo were a very
loppy farnlly , and sot on splendidly.
"Kvcry year a big patch of brrish was
cleared up , and when I left homo there > were
moro than 400 acres of the farm under fonie
ort of cultivation. Father and my tlireo
eldest brothers , sometimes work * ! as hard at
he hired men/and they all Ilktil U ; but
lugh and I , the two youn st boys , \\t-re ,
ve thought , awfully abused by 'jeln tent tc
ichool , and altenvard .to Uppw Caned ? coif
ego at Toronto. We made up for It all ,
hough In the summer and Christmas holi
days , as ther'e was any quantity of Jlrhlns
ml hunting everywhere around our lium * ? .
"About six miles from our place live * Cal-
nel Warwick , a half-pay oillcer , whose fam-
ly Is of exactly the same slie as our * , and
ver since coming to Canada we have dined
nnd spent the- evening with thorn on Christ
mas day and they with us im N < sw V'ftf'a
day and \\Q always had great fu.i
"Two ycsfs ngo today , Jnnuao 1. 1S50 , the
Warwick * father , mother and nh.i > children
big nnd little came to us as usual ; bu
When we sat down to dinner , our total num
ber was only twenty-one , Instead of twenty
two. The place at my mother's right hnm
was. Vacant , nlid she herself , though doli.g
the 'Honors gracefully , wore an nlr of iron
blc l mixlelyvlilch she could not wholly run
cc l , nnd which was more or less retli'ttec
by1 each family In cur own family. "
' "Had due of your brothers or sisters died
then , FreO , " utked one of themen. .
"No ; , that Is , we hoped not. The. trouble
was thru eighteen months before' . In Jllly
1840 , my eldest brother , Donald , longing to
adventure and excited by wonderful reports
from newly discovered gold fields , had let
honu , bound tor California , nnd not a won
from or of him had yet reached us , bcyom
the mere Information that he wan to leave
New York for Colon on the sixteenth di >
of the month ns passenger on a sailing
ship , the nntno of which ho dl >
not give. From Colon now Aspln
wall ho Intended to cross the deadly
Isthmus to Panama and thence take ship ci
the Pacific for San Francisco.
"On the New Year day of 1S50 his absence
had thrown but a slight cloud on our Jollity
as In thosa days there was no Panama rail
way , acd six or sa\cn months might wcl
para without lettera from him. Hut now
another v'holo , year had gone by , and cvci
my bravely hopeful father began to fee
alarmed , for It was not like true-hearted Don
ald to neglect his own people , and yet , I
still allvo , how was his long silence to be
accounted for ? Wc > feared that , llki ) so
many hundreds of other gold seekers , he
might have perished In fever-stricken Pan
ama , as he would , we thought , have cer
tainly written If he had safely reached San
Francisco.
"The grizzled old soldier , Colonel Warwick ,
tried hard to cheer us by his own reminis
cences of mysteriously lost and happily re-
found comrades In India and elsewheream :
by truthfully reminding us of the many
vicissitudes to which letters from California
were then exposed. 'Why , ' ho SJld , 'the boy
has probably written a half dozen times , but ,
either In crossing the Isthmus , passing around
Capo Horn , or coming by way of that won
derful overland Pony express , the letters
may every one have been lost. I've known
far stranger things than that In the way ol
missing mall matter , even In easily reached
and densaly populated India. "
"For a year before leaving home Donald
had owned a magnificent Newfoundland dog.
Prince by name. 'The Ulick Prince' we
youngsters called him , not only on account
of his color , but also because his chivalrous
and daring character greatly resembled , In
cur estimation , that of the famous personage
In English history for whom wo had named
him. Indeed , Prlnco had once saved his
master's life , when the latter was one day
In an outlying field , suddenly attacked by
a furious , half wild bu li bull. Hence Don
ald waa so greatly attached to the creature
that bo had , notwithstanding the added ex
pense , taken him along on his tedious Jour
ney , much to our regret , as we sorely missed
the grand old fellow In all our outdoor
sports.
"So , on this New Year day , all of us , even
down to 0-year-old Margery , thought con
stantly of the far-away pair. Hut the rites
of hospitality could not be neglected , and
by and by , stimulated by the purposed gay-
cty of our visitors , nil cf us young folks
Joined , Just In the gloaming , In a romping
g.arnc of 'hlde-oiid-seek. '
"At ordinary times our big ten-room log
house was lighted by home made tallow can
dles , but on festive occasions my mother
used spsrm ones. Numbers of these were
new burning , In .addition to the great open
fires , making , all within door a altogether too
light-for'the 4prdper enjoyment of our game :
so. by uqanlmpjis cpnssht , we' agreed that
the -hlders' should havj Ihe , privilege- the
fast darkening woodshed , stable and near
est barn.
"The play went merrily en for half an
hour or so , each successive 'seeker' generally
routing out the most cunningly concealed
'hitlers' In no time. Hut then little Agues
Warwick so , artfully bid herself that the
'seeker' of the moment , utterly falling to
discover her , was finally obliged to cull upon
the whole crowd for assistance.
"High and low , up and down , through
stable- lofts , between wood piles , behind
straw stacks , Insldo the big fanning mill ,
over grain bins and under the barn , wo
hunted without success. Then , gathered in
a cluster on the threshing lloor we were
about to give up and let the little mlschlof
find herself , when , through the open door.
Into which the pale moonlight streamed , a
dark body rushed , shot past us and sprang
over Into a nearly empty haymow , whence
Instantly came a great rustling and n sc.rles
of Inarticulate cries from the now discovered
Agnes which sounded to us llko those of fear
and pain.
" 'A bear ! A bear ! ' screamed the elder
Miss Warwick. 'A bear Is killing the child ! '
those- brutes are quite plentiful in our
neighborhood.
" 'Pshaw ! ' exclaimed my brother Hugh ,
'bears don't como out In winter. '
" 'No , nor they don't have long tails , either ,
I guess , ' wisely observed little Margery.
"Ilecoverlng from our momentary astonish
ment , we young men nnd boys , wer In the
act of rushing to the rescue , when out from
the- manhole of the mow crept little Agnes ,
laughing half hysterically mm encircling with
one-arm the neck of a big black dog !
" 'Why , It's Prince ! Donald's Hlack Prince ! '
all of us slmultanoiiisly shouted , for now
we plainly saw the peculiar , heart-pimped
breast-spot which was the only fisck ; of
white on the glossy coat of our long lest
frlftml
' 'It rtally seemed as If the wife old f I-
low had stealthily watched our play until
ho found what the trouble was ; and then ,
with deliberate purpose to furprlse us , had
dnt'hed past without greeting , and , guld d
by his unerring nose , had speedily torn the
hay off the form of his well-remembered
playfellow for pretty Agnes Warwick used
to spend fully as much time at our horn * us
at her own.
"Now , having BO well succeeded In creating
a sensation , Prlnc ; threw oft all dlsgulso
and after hilariously Jumping upon eaoli df
us In turn , gambolled , barked and frisked
around In an ecstasy of delight , while \\o
all started In a wild race to the house.
"Rvldently , some one perhaps with news
of Donald had arrived , for n strange sleigh
etood before- the opsn door , anil as HO
irarod the house , we could hear my father's
voice ringing In tones which did not sound
llko those of grief.
" 'There's word from Donald ! Come on,1
yelled my brother , Archie , as he * iprang to
the leading place.
"The- other sixteen of us followed , pell-
mell , almost tumbling over each other In
our eagerness , and burst like n cyclone Into
tli big parlor. Then the old roof slu ok with
our half frantic cheers ; for there , In th >
center of the room , Kood Donald III m self !
He was brown as an Indian , and bearded like
well , like any 'gold ' digger , but was the
same old Ponald still , while cl'jtped lo his
brJast , with hfr arms about lili neck , lay
my dear little mother , foftly crying In speechless -
less Joy. "
Hero poor Fred almost broke down , and
not a 'homesick man of us all could trust
himself to speak. Presently , liouever , the
young.fellow h waa only 11) ) went on :
"Hoys I tell you this waf 'mcs : too
muclufor me. I'll never forget that time If
I should live a thousand years. It snomeJ
like getting my brother hack from the grove
Itself.- Some of Jis crltd Ilk ? babies , and
even the ) stern old colonel hlmrelf had to
pretend that the open door blow the fire
smoke Into his pyes.
At last , wo fUl | ted down a little , jnd after
ths two hungry travelers Hlack Prince and
hls > master had eaten a good dinner , Donuld
told us his story. It would take me all
night to rep&at It in full. Hesliles , I can't
tell It as ho did ; no I'll Ju t five you the
marrow of It :
"On landing at Colon , he- and all th other
ssciij ont bad fo pay W each for mule hire ,
with a' pair of big Mexican spurs thrown In
for each rider , In order to get across the
Isjhmu ; ) . . Morq Uian ono-half of the crowd
already IHI ] symptoms of the fever when tli y
got to the city of Panama and tw nty-lx
poor fellows died there , whllo waiting a week
for a Pacific ocean ship.
"Donald was stricken down almost at once ,
and lay for three months between life and
death in the house of Father Laportp , a kind
French-Canadian priest , who tuok good care
of him and hl c-ffccts , and \\l\tn he wn *
nbls lo dictate , wrote for him to my father ,
though neither that1 letter , nor three others ,
wrltttn from different places tiy DonsM him
self , vtre ever roce-lved n quite common oc
currence during the first two years of the
California excitement.
"During the whole of hln master's Illness )
Prlncs stuck close to him , though , a Father
Laportn afterward reUtrO , nothing but the
dog's own fierce courage and fidelity Imd
prevented him from being stolen by covetous
thieves ,
"At la t DcnaM got strong enough to sail
for San Francisco , where he arrived after a
five-weeks' voyafto nml In robust health. Here
ho wrote a long home-letter , nnd , accompa
nied by Prince , Wont off nt once to San Juan
diggings. He had good luclt from the very
first , nnd In eight months cleared , nbovc
nil expenses , nearly $11,000. Then , being no
longer obU to bear Up under that awful
lionipMckn.os < ? which nil of Ms are begin
ning to know so writ , ho pullell up stikes
nnd started for home.
"He told us that often , while on the
diggings , and In the city , too. ho had been
offfred fifty ounces nf gold for Prince , but
that fifty times fifty could not have boiiRht
him very fortunately for Donald hltmolf :
for on his Journey from the mines to fan
Francisco ht > was waylaid ono night by t\\o
Mexican tramps , ahd xnvoil from .robbery and
death only through the dog's watchfulness
nnd courage.
"Il seems the vagabonds had concealed
themselves In a clump cf chaparral by the
roadside , nnd were In the act of stnllng out
upon their Intended victim , \\hen sharp-eyed
Prlnco sprang forward nnd bore one of them
to the ground before he could usj his mur
derous knife , then held him by the throat
until Donald had bound him , while his vil
lainous comrade , sei'lng the game was up ,
disappeared in the bush.
"Without further serious adventure , my
brother had returned homo by way of Callao ,
thunci ) to Panama , then across the Isthmus
again , and fo , by nn Atlintlc steamer , to
New York , where ho sold "his gold , all except
a few specimen nuggets , for $17.10 per
ounce that being then the highest price for
California gold ,
"While ho was ? telling his v'ory , the noblp
old dog listened Intently , nnd. I do b llcvo.
understood every word , as at Iho mo-l strik
ing passages ho thumped the lloor with his
great tall In token of approval. "
"You bad a Jolly time , then , niter nil , cm ,
Fred ? " said one of our fullows.
"Jolly ! well. 1 should say so. Our New-
Year's day , which began with anxious doubt
and went along with forced gafcty , oiida ! In
a regular Jubilee. Hut Donald's story so ex
cited mo that I soon began to lease my
parcntn to let me go to the gold fields. My
father said Jus too young , however ; so 1
had to return to college , \\hcre > I remained
for seventeen months longer , nnd it was not
until the beginning of the holidays , last Juno ,
that I was allowed to leave , on condition that
I sliould go , not to California , but to Aus
tralia , as bth my parents knew that law
iind order are better enforced bore than
there.
"So I said goodhy to my darling lulls
mother and all the others. By this time 1
had begun to find that a voyage around the
world was not quite so easy a matter ns I
had thought ; but It was then too late to back
out , and I got to Now York Just In tlmei to
secure a passage on the old lleveniie with
the rest of you fellows. "
In fhe foregoing , I do not claim to have
given the exact words of my chum , but he
was a very preclBO-spaklng young fcJlovv , sel

AGAINST TIIIJ"COUNTv. .
Granted in ( lie County
I'our Fitrni C.-IOCM.
Yesterday Judge Dufilo decided to grant
ths writ of mandamus aslted by Charles
Kcllar and Judge D ane to compel the
county of Douglas to pay the judgments
which were obtained In the district court
n the county poor farm cases , and which
were recently affirmed by the supreme court.
Tlio application was fought by the county
chiefly on tho' grounds that the county did
lot have jiirlkdlctlon lo consider the cases
when they were first bforo the board and
that consequently all action , including the
securing of Judgments In the district court
was void. In referring to this pnint , Judge
Jufllo In his decision , which was very bilof ,
said :
"While It Is argued In this proceeding
for the first time that the Judgments were
rendered without Jurisdiction , an4 while
; rave doubts exist In my mind regarding
heir validity. I deem It proper that the
supreme court , and not the trial court , '
should determine the question. Therefore ,
with this object In view , I will permit a
niperseilcas bond In crder that the case may
