Vol. I. YALE, MONDAY, APRIL 23, 1886. No. 3 Telegraphic Dispatches. San Francisco, April 1G.—The Hudson Bay Co.'s steamer Labouchere, hence for Victoria struck the reef at Point Reyes at 10:30 P. M. Saturday. Tho vessel is a total loss. She had on board about 100 passengers, all of whom, with the exception of two wero saved. Wilcox of Williams Creek is one of the lost. San Francisco, April 16.—At about a quarter past one this afternoon a terrible explosion occurred in the Assay Office of G. W. Bell, on California street, adjoining Wells, Fargo & Co.'s. Capt. Samuel Knight, Superintendent of Wells, Fargo & Co.'s Express, and G. W. Bell were instantly killed. Several others whose names are as yet unknown, were also killed. Many of the employees of Wells, Fargo & Co. were more or less injured ; but it is thought none of them were killed except Mr. Knight. The nature of the explosion is not yet known, but it is supposed to have been a barrel of nitro-glyceryne oil, one of the most powerful explosive chemicals known to modern science. The concussion was felt with terrible force throughout the entire city. The Assay Ollice and a portion of the Express building were demolished. Window sashes and glass were shattered in buildings in adjoining blocks. The most intense excitement exists throughout the city, and a posse of policemen have been stationed about the Express Office to keep the crowd back. It is supposed that some workmen are still buried beneath the ruins of the Assay Office. The bodies of two have already been recoved. L. E. Webster, head of the New York Express Department is missing. The dead bodies of four persons, in addition to those named have been found. W. S. Havens, of the P. M. S. S. Co., is among the missing. Messrs. Sanders & Stacy of the Express Office, are badly injured; the latter very seriously. From six to twelve other persons are supposed to have been killed. Chicago, April 12.—The Wisconsin Legislature, by a party vote, except two Republican members in each branch, adopted resolutions declaring that Senator Doolittle has betrayed Wisconsin, and ought to resign. A resolution^ approving the President's policy was anchorage, otherwise these ships would most assuredly have fallen a prize to the bravery and skill of the allies. Their loss amounts to a trifle, only too men were killed in the action, and the damage to the vessels is scarce worth mentioning. The United States steamers Vanderbilt, Tuscarora, and monitor Monad- nack, were at Valparaiso. The steamship Moses Taylor sails for San Juan del Sur at 11 a. m., to-morrow, with a large number of passengers. The Pacific Mail steamship. Sacramento will sail on the 18th inst. instead of the 19th, the usual sailing day heretofore. Hereafter in all months where there are 30 days the 18th instead of the 19th will be the day of departure. This change of the programme lias been adopted for the purpose of connecting with the French line at Aspinwall. Our market for Legal Tenders is a little weak and quotations irregular. The bankers have been buying at 78^@78f and selling at several New Westminsterians here, but they do not appear to bear transplantation.vory well—at least I have mot with none in a very flourishing condition. I did intend to draw your attention in this letter to sundry manufactures which have been established here, and which I believe eould be us successfully attempted in British Columbia. But my letter has already spun itself out lo too gn«t a length to admit of atiy discussion of such subjects at present, so I will reserve my remarks in that connection lor a future communication. The news lias just arrived that the President has issued a proclamation announcing the establishment of peace throughout the union, and the cessation of Martial Law. This is a step in the right direction, and the Democratic party is exceedingly jubilant upon it, whilst the Republicans are as much disgusted. Caustic. is going to save us from such unjust acts on the part of the Govornriioijt through their obsequious agents, unless we have Union of lb" two colonies, with a fair representation, and the capital either moved from where it is to a more central point, in this colony or to Victoria—in fact the latter place te no further from us than New Westminster.

There will be enough Con San Francisco, April G, 186C. Since I last wrote to you, wc have had a rather severe earthquake here. It occurred at thirteen minutos past 12 If., March 2tith, and although no houses were shaken down, and no lives were lost, it scared the good people of San Francisco from their propriety for some little time. It is the general belief here that some day the whole of that part of the city which is built on land reclaimed from the Bay, will be engulphcd, and this theory is in a measure borne out by the fact that the shocks of earthquake are always felt most severely on the streets abutting on the water front. Outsiders, too, invariably get the accounts very much softened dotvn and qualified, and when you read in the San Francisco papers that there has been "uuother slight shock," you may be sure that it was fifty per cent worse than represented. The recent aecounts from Big Bend have excited a good deal of attention here, and us both New Graivula and Montana have turned out to be comparative " fizzles," the honest miner is more likely to bend his steps in your direction.

To thk Editor of the "Tribune. Sir,—It is with particular interest T have observed the sayings and doings of our Legislative Council through the press. That the people, particularly those of our mining popu lation, have gained something through the acts of that honorable body, cannot be denied. The obnoxious Cold Export Tax has been abolished, a measure, the repeal of which you yourself so ably advocated last year in the Cariboo Sentinel. But there were other measures which were introduced into the House which would have been also very acceptable to the whole population of this upper country, from the fact that they would have been productive of the greatest good to all, had they been dealt half as liberally with as tho Gold Export Tax. I refer to the Road Tolls, Trades' Licence Ordinance, County Court Bill, and abolition of the tonnage dues. OPPENilEIMER & CO. heir to intimate that.

New York, April 12.—The Health Commissioner has ordered cows and hogs to be removed from the limits of the police district; physicians declare that the cows are nearly all aifected with pleuro-pneumonia, aud if sent into the country they will spread the disease and cause immense loss. News of the entire defeat of the Spanish squadron by the Peruvians and Chileans is confirmed, the allied squadron consisted of the Apnrimac 30 guns, Peruvian corvette ; American, 12 guns, Peruvian corvette; Union 12 guns, Peruvian dispatch boat; Covadonga, 3 guns. Chileans in all mounting 75 guns. The Spanish vessels were the frigate Blanca, 30 guns; frigate Villa de Madrid, 50 guns; in all 8(1 guns. For about two hours a most earnest cannonading was kept up. The fire of the allies being well regulated throughout. The Blanca was rendered almost useless and unable to continue the fight. She dropped behind tho island referred to and endeavored to do damage by throwing shell over the island is done very, shortly, the fickle mining population of this State is likely to become disgusted, and give up all idea of the Big Bend cruntry. A short time ago the people of Victoria made a great fuss about the new mines, and for some days the walls ofSanjjng that thero arc not as fine and liberal a Francisco were covered with gigantic posters, I ciass of people in New Westminster as detailing the Big Bend route. But just asjm other parts of the colony, if their eyes the thing began to bo talked about, and when|were once opened and they could see these every facility should have been prepared fori selfish humbugs in the same light we view them, that is their true light, for the colony destination. Active and Labouchere were both docked, to undergo extensive alterations. It was at lirst said that the Labouchere would only be three weeks fitting up, but she has been in the hands of the carpenters already for five weeks, and it is only to-day that she is advertised to sail on the 14th instant. This is bad management, and likely to provo very detrimental to the interests of the colonies, aud tho prospects of the coming season. There is a general belief here in tlie richness of the Big Bend country, but men require some inducement to go thero in the shape of reasonable fares, and at present they have neither low rates nor a decent bout to take them. I believe that if the boats had been running regularly all this time, some seven or eight hundred men would have gone up, who will now ^'0 to Montana or New Granada, where they will probably die—while they would at least have been kept in the land of the living in ALWAYS ON HAND A LARGE STOCK OF Groceries, Provisions, can truly say that " If from the past we can I jj j q tj q \i g jud^c the future, down they go politically, j ' those hopeless reprobates, our selfish legislators." I suppose you arc aware that of all DRY GOODS, CLOTHING, the petitions that have been presented to his] honor the Administrator of the Government, I have not read of one as yet that has received that consideration which it was entitled to. A petition from the miners in Cariboo East, praying that a law would be established to enable tliem to settle their disputes on the ground before the Gold Commissioner, and also to do away with Chancery suits was presented, but nothing has boon heard ol tho petition, or the member who was to attend to it, as yet.

The Other vessel suffeied badly also and both soon cleared out. Most unfortunately the machinery of the Apurimac was disabled, and t/hc America and Union could not leave their country. The news arrived here in good time, and if the Hudson's Bay Company and the California Steam Navigation Company will do their duty now, and give up shilly-shallying, I think you have a good chance of a considerable immigration this spring, though I do not think it will amount to a "rush."

YALE, MONDAY, APRIL 23, 18CG. them to a man. The professional men, traders and mechanics of the colony, have had oppressive license duties placed upon them to support a lot of pensioners who have no claims to their bounty or consideration. The people will ask is there no remedy for such a profligate waste of the public funds as is contemplated by the Government? Our answer is, certainly. Let petitions be immediately transmitted to the Secretary of State for the colonies, setting forth the facts of each case, and we promise that not a single one of the appointments will be confirmed. A SECOND JUDGE!!! OFFICIAL APPOINTMENTS. It will be seen by reference to another part of our columns that the Administrator of the Government has placed three additional pensioners on the Civil List of tho colony. A more outrageous proceeding than saddling the oppressed tax-payers of this colony at the present time with seven or eight thousand dollars per annum, for tho support of three drones who have no claims for eleemosynary aid, we have never heard of, and it has no parallel in the history of colonial maladministration. It cannot be pretended by the greatest sycophant of tho Government that there is any necessity for the appointments referred to, and on no rational grounds whatever can they be justified. In the whole district c Cariboo West there arc not fifty white men resident, and tho native population is exceedingly small, besides being peaceable and well disposed, yet they must have a stipendiary magistrate placed over them. The district has been more than six months without a magistrate at all, and during that time not a single case of crime has been committed, and the presence of the magistrate from the adjacent district of Cariboo East has not once been called for to vindicate the law or act in any way in his judicial capacity. At no former period was there so little call for a magistrate at Quesnel as now, as with good roads into Cariboo the officer there can reach any point in the district in one day. In fact the two districts, Cariboo East and West combined, are not nearly so eitensivo as the circuit allotted to the magistrate of Yale, and the duty of which is efficiently performed. It is now a matter upon which there is no difference of opinion that the population of Cariboo will be very much lessened this year compared with former ones; the magistrate who presides there will in consequence have a good deal of time on his hands, and ho can very easily pay periodical visits to Qucsuel to hold potty sessions Courts. This will meet all the requirements of tho district nnd save three thousand five hundred dollars to the Colonial Treasury. To the nomination of the member for New Westminster as High Sheriff of the colony, the people are most strongly opposed. If the Government have the hardihood to carry it into effect, the greatest injury and loss will result to the colony generally. One man cannot perform the duty, and the gross wrong of hav ing a lot uf under paid subordinates through out the country who have no interest in doing their duty fairly will not, cannot be tolerated. Such a state of things has existed too long, and the evils that have arisen under the system !v! are not unknown to the Government, and have JJJf been borne by the people until they can suffer them no longer. The last man in this colony who has a claim to a sinecure office and a pension of a thousand a year dragged out of the pockets of tho poor miners and traders of the country is the author of the infamous Gold Tax Hill; a measure that contributed so much to depopulate and depress the colony. What necessity there is for such an incubus as Mr. Tom El win as travelling "correspondent" with the Western Union Telegraph Company, we are at a loss to understand. Last year they had no olliciul of the kind with them, and yet we heard of no complaints, but wc suppose two or three thousand dollars a year must be extracted from tho revenue of the colony to provide for another pensioner! Wc have labored under the opinion for some timo past that the present Administrator of the Government was disposed to adopt a " reconstruction" policy that would havo a tendency to lieal the wounds inflicted by his chief; we re- grot to say that we have been disappointed, ns instead of " carrying out the well understood wishes of the people," lie has committed al grevious errors nsovor wero perpetrated by Gov. Seymour. Have tho people of the country asked for the late appointments r So far Our contemporary at New Westminster thinks the people of the colony are not sufficiently well ground down with taxes at present, for in the last number it advocates the appointment of a second judge whose salary nnd allowances would at least amount to seven or eight thousand dollars, which, of course would have to be added to the grevious taxa tion which now bears so heavily on the country. The amount set down in the estimates this year and voted by tho Legislative Coun cil for the " maintenance of law and order" in the colony, exclusive of the support of pris oners, was upwards of $95,000! Truly the people of this colony must be an unruly set, when it takes such an amount of money to pay for judges and police to keep them in subjection. We will not yield to any one in a strong desire to have the peace preserved aud the judicial establishment? kept in an fficient state, but we maintain that at present instead of having more public officers, policy and duty alike demand that our over grown and huge establishments shall be reduced to a state proportionate to the wants and requirements of the colony. We are now within a month of the holding of the Spring Assizes, and will it be believed that in three of the four places where the judge will open the Queen's Commission there is not a single criminal to come up for trial! In only one place, also, is there a single civil suit to be heard!! Where, then, is the necessity for a second judge, or the inconvenience of the present state of things? It only exists in the imagination of the writer in the Columbian. It is easy to prate about "new districts springing up," nud the want that will be felt for a judge in them! All this is just so much pure buncome, and we are satisfied that there is not a single individual in the colony so un- sophisticated as to bo gulled" by it. When there wcre ten men in the colony for one who will be in it the ensuing sumracr,jJudgo Beg- bie was equal to meet the emergency, and last year he went from one extremity of the colony to tho other to perform his judicial duty. There is none of the " new districts springing up this year" so widely separated from Cariboo as Kooteuay, and yet we heard nothing about a new judge last year. Although we aro aware that there is a good deal of intriguing going on to have a second judge appointed, we cannot believe that the Administrator of the Government will dare to take upon himself so grave n responsibility as such an appointment. Unparalleled as some of his late acts have been, we will not, wc cannot, believe that Mr. Birch will attempt at present to make any more judicial functionaries. When Union is consummated, ro will bo a wider rango than at present for the selection of a third judge for the Court of Appeal, but until that event happens a second judge for this colony would be an ornamental appendage which the people are not prepared, and cannot afford, to pay for. It is all very well for the Now Westminster newspaper to indulgo in the " gratification of its selfish whim," by showering its foul and unmeasured abuse upon Judge Begbie, but taxation has gone too far already to allow the people to maud any further prostitution of the public funds to please a knot of tricksters at the capital, and their impotent ally tho Columbian. EXTRAORDINARY OFFICIAL APPOINTMENTS. The Administrator of the Government of this colony hns made the following most extraordinary appointments, viz.: Mr. Warner R.

A Surprisk.—A few nights since a miner on his way to Big Bend lost his horse at Chap- man's Bar. Finding that the animal had gone off in the direction of Yale, he followed in pursuit. When within a few miles of the latter place, the traveller saw a large object standing in the centre of the road. Thinking it was a man, our hero approached at a respectful distance. It being very dark at the time, the nearer the affrighted miner came the stronger grew his apprehensions that the object really was a man who was around at that late hour of the night for no lawful purpose. After shouting at the top of his voice for the object to get out of the way without there being any response or movement on the part of the latter, the miner summoned up all his courage and made a charge right at what he supposed was an opponent. Drawing his strong arm, when within striking distance, the miner levelled a blow with his fist at the head of what he was then fully persuaded was a midnight robber. The blow took effect and brought the obj ect to the ground with a loud thump. Finding that his knuckles suffered pretty severely by the blow, and thinking that lie had killed a man, as there was no signs of life, the miner stooped down to have a look at his prostrate victim. To his surprise, as well as to his relief, he found that instead of it being the body of a man he had before him, Transportation op a Dog.—We are informed that a most extraordinary trial lately took placo at New Westminster, before a full bench of magistrates. It appears that a saloon keeper near the wharves has a fancy dog, which was not restrained in his liberty. A public official happened to be passing the saloon one day, when the dog barked at him. Of course the dignity of the exalted gentleman was offended, and the owner of the unruly cur was called upon to have the animal destroyed forthwith. Not being disposed to comply with so unreasonable a request, the saloon keeper was summoned before the Police Court. After hearing tho evidence of the complainant, the magistrates ordered the offending dog to be produced in Court. He was instantly placed upon tho table, and to the surprise of nearly every one present, the hero of all the muss was discovered to be only a little poodle, weighing two pounds four ounces! The bench, however, convicted the defendant, and sentenced the dog to bo hanged. A petition was immediately got up, as the story goes, to the Administrator of the Government, who commuted the penalty into transportation for life. The dog is to be sent to Big Bend, and our old Cariboo friend, Frank Richards, is to have charge of him. Well, we have no doubt the boys will give Frank and the "convict" a hearty welcome An Important Ekterprisk.—By the steamer which left on Monday last, bags containing samples of pay-dirt obtained from the bars iTwTs a'wooden7mage"tak7n from"an adjoin-1ftnd benf>* between Mstown and the Indian village on Sc«iamma, about eight miles below Hope, were forwarded by the resident magis- ing Indian place of sepulture, which some vicious wag had placed in the road to scare any one who might be passing at night. After recovering from his fright, or rather we should say surprise, for miners are not easily frightened, our hero passed on to his destination to recount his adventure and recover his straying animal. We would remind practical jokers that any interference as this with Indian burial grounds, if the transgressor were discovered by the police, would be attended with rather serious consequences. Pass Him on.—We learn from a party who lately returned from Savana's Ferry, that the notorious vagabond, Tom O'Neill, has been indulging his thieving propensities in that quarter. It appears that Tom operated on a Frenchman to a considerable extent, when the latter attacked him with a six-shooter. Considering " discretion the better part of valor," swiftness of foot that a long way behind. trate to New Westminster, from whence, more securely packed, the dirt will be transmitted for examination and analysis to Eng land. We believe this to be the result of an application made to His Excellency the Governor, when in London, by an English Company who propose working over the abandoned diggings of the lower Fraser by the application of improved means of extracting the gold. Mr. Agassiz, the Chief Constable of the district, to whom the forwarding of the samples was confided, assures us that the prospects obtained from both the worked and unworked benches and bars were in many cases most excellent. We trust, therefore, that the company may be induced to commence operations soon. The field for this enterprise is extensive, and we make bold to prognosticate that their venture will be crowned with a success they little anticipate. Latest News from Big Bend. From some gentlemen who have just re- turned from Seymour, at the head of Lake Shuswap, we have gleaned the following information : The lakes are now open for traffic, and the boats have commenced to make through trips from Savana's Ferry to Seymour City. A large nnmber of houses are built at the latter place and trading is going on there pretty brisk. About 250 miners who had crossed the lakes on the ice had proceeded into the mines.. They were divided between French and Carne's creeks. All had located claims and were engsged In preparing lumber for sluices. The best of prospects had been obtained, and the highest hopes were entertained of success. Upwards of one thousand miners were reported to be on their way up the Columbia from Colville in boats. Several had already arrived. Cottonwood Smith, well known formerly in Cariboo, had discovered a trail that leads direct from Seymour to French Creek, and only the same distance as the Government trail to the Columbia. This will be a cut off of more than thirty miles in the journey. Provisions were getting plenty at Seymour. Flour was selling at 80 cents, bacon, $1 12^ cents; fresh beef, 30@85 cents; tea, $2, sugar, 45 cents per lb. The miners had packed in their own "grub" so far Freighting from Savana's Ferry across the lakes was done at 3 cents per lb. Work on the Hudson's Bay Company's steamer had been pushed forward with great dispatch. She will be launched this week, and it is fully expected that she will be making regular trips in little more than a fortnight. The boilers are landed at the Ferry by this time, as the teams conveying them were met near the 90 mile post some days since. Mr. Mobcrly, with some men, was at Kamloops, where he intended remaining until the arrival of the Chief Commissioner. Tom retreated with a soon left his pursuer O'Neill, who is well known as one of tho worst characters in the colony, spent a considerable portion of last season on Williams Creek. In the fall he committed a most outrageous assault on a Scotchman who was inebriated and whom he had previously robbed. He was convicted of the assault before the magistrate .and required to give bail to be of good behaviour for twelve months. He was subsequently released, on condition that he would leave the colony. If he is caught in the Columbia district he can be made to servo his full term. He had better therefore pass over the border at once and save himself from coming before Judge Begbie. Quartz Mining.—Tho Cherry Creek Gold and Silver Mining Company recently held a meeting at their office here, when it was resolved to have the company incorporated without delay. The company have the discovery claim on this creek, and from an assay lately made in San Francisco, the rock is proved to be very rich. Work at the mine lias been going on for some time past, but the company intend putting on a larger number of men so as to fully develop the mine during the ensuing summer. The company formed in Portland a short time since with $500,000 capital have their claim on the same ledge as the Discovery Company. Saw Mills at Bio Bend.—A gentleman en route to Big Bend, who arrived here by last steamer from Portland, informed us that a merchant in Portland had started up tho Columbia with all tho machinery complete for a steam saw mill, to be erected in some central place in the Big Bend mines. Wc understand, also, that Mr. Pete Eraser, of Lytton, will take the machinery of his steam saw mill to French Creek, where Mr. Romano has a saw mill in operation. Subscription.—Tho weekly subscription to the Tribune along tho waggon roads from Yalo to Savana's Ferry and Cariboo is 50 cts. including cost of delivery. Parties requiring tho paper will please give their orders to the Stage Driver or to any of Barnard's Agents. No paper sent unless ordered. A Man Drowneo in Lake Suuswap.—From Mr. McKay, who returned from Kamloops a day or two since, we learned the following particulars Of a sad accident which took place on Lake Shuswap: A Cornishman named John Trefoy was drowned, on the 30th ultimo, whilst attempting to cross the lake upon the ice. A countryman of deceased started in compnny with him, both having sleds. .When the ice began to give way, Trefoy unfortunately let go his sled and made for the centre of the lake, where he was seen to fall through the ice, and beforo any assistance arrived he sunk. Deceased's partner got safely to shore, where he obtained a pole; whilst in the act of returning to render his comrade assistance, he saw him sink under the ice to rise no more. Trefoy was a young man, and was bound for the Big Bend mines. A Hard Case.—A Mexican, who had $500 due to him by a party in this neighborhood, came here for the purpose of suing in the County Court for his money. Finding from the magistrate that he could only site for $250, the man went to New Westminster to take proceedings in the Supreme Court. On arriving at the capital, the unfortunate creditor could not get a lawyer to take the case under a fee of $100, and being without a cent of money, the poor fellow was obliged to return without attaining his object. This is an extremely hard case and shows tlie necessity for the County Courts Bill lately passed, and which we hope tho Administrator of the Government will sign without delay, notwithstanding the selfish and unprincipled opposition that has been raised against it. TO THI SUPPORTERB OK THK TRIBONK.—In order that the Tribune may have as large a number of subscribers as possible we have placed the subscription at so low a figure as to leave no margin, after meeting expenses, for profit. We would therefore urge all who desire to support tho paper to advertise, and not only advertise themselves, but to urge their friends to advertise also. A Road Round the Lakes.—Mr. Jerome Harper has appeared in print to ventilate his indignation against us for exposing an attempt which he has been making to get the Government to cut a road for his especial benefit round the Shuswap lakes. Mr. Harper, of coursermaifttains that the road would benefit " others," as well as himself, but he fails to mention who the " others" are, or how much they will contribute to the making of the trail! We have spoken to a great many packers well acquainted with the country round the lakes, and they all agree that a road is quite unnecessary there for public utility, as there is no feed along it, and besides, freight can be transported much cheaper by steamer or barges than on pack animals. On tho part of the public we most strongly protest against the revenue being wasted in forming a road for Mr. Harper. If the cost of the trail be only S'2,200, Mr. Harper can very well afford to contribute the whole amount, as he is making a princely fortune in the colony, and is one of those who, by the inequalities of our taxation, escapes taxes almost altogether. In conclusion, we would just assure Mr. Harper that the Chief Commissioner will not sanction any outlay like that asked for by him. Advices have been received by telegraph that the steamer Oregon sailed on last baturday for New Westminster. Gone to Bio Bend.—Our old and esteemed friend, Mons. Bt Duffis, passed through Yale a few days 6ince on route to Big Bend. If indomitable energy combined with high intelligence, can secure the favor of the fickle goddess, then, indeed, Mons. Deffis will have success in hie pursuit after gold. Our best wishes accompany him on his journey. Latest Telegraphic Dispatches. LOSS OF THE LABOUCHERE. The steamer Labouchere, left San Francisco On Saturday at 4 p. ui. and was wrecked tho same night off Point Reyes. The fog was very dense and vessel got on the breakers before her commander discovered the danger. All the passengers, about 100 in number, were in bed when the vessel struck; they immediately ran on deck; the engine was reversed and the vessel finally hauled off the rocks when it was found that the water was coming in very fast. The pumps were started and thi passengers put into boats and upon a raft which had been constructed and headed for shore, which was some 10 miles distant, and which they finally reached, with the exception of two mulattoes, who wero in an open boat, which capsized, i passenger named Wilcox, and a steward of the vessel who were lost; when intelligence reached town the Shu- brick was sent to the rescue, sho reports the Labouchere a total loss, she went down In CO fathoms water. Somo of the passengers were taken by tho Montana to Portland, the remainder went back to San Francisco in tho Shubrick. THE EXPLOSION IN SAN FHANOISOO. Wells Fargo &Co. who are freight agents for the P. M. S. S. Co., received by the steamer Sacramento, on her late trip up from Panama a quantity of nitro glycerine, which had reached the Isthmus some time ago, consigned to Bandmann, Nelson & Co., of this city ; also two cases of the same article, but in larger sized boxes. These boxes wcre plainly marked "nitro-glycerine acid." The latter two, were refused by the parties to whom they wcre consigned, as they had been damaged. Capt. Cox superintendent of the T. M. S. S. Co's., wharf, finding they wcre leaking sent them down to Wells, Fargo & Co's office, and they were placed in the courtyard. Webster, the freight clerk of W. F. & Co., sent for Haven the freight clerk of the P. M. S. S. Co. to examine the same. Both men were rent to pieces, showing they must havo been over the explosive material; no other persons among tho dead were so mutilated, some having their bodies filled with splinters, others having their clothes burned or blown off, and others receiving fractures. Knight was evidently killed by the concussion. The boxes containing the nitro-glycerine which exploded wcre each 2^ feet high, and their superficial measurement was 14 feet 11 inches; only one exploded, the other being found leaking, but not exploded; two hours after tho catns- trophy search was made for other wounded. Lying in the rear were three bodies ; two not recognized were lifeless, the third, which was under thu others, proved to be that of Garret II. Bell, assayer. Bell's features were found to bo sadly mutilated, hisrlotrrcs-almost torn off, but ho still breathed, although insensible; he very soon expired. Meantime the search went on and hundreds taking part in the mournful work. Having obtained a gang of stevedores from the Mail Co.'s wharf, tho work of exhumation is carried on systematically; as the brick and rubbish where the Union Club House kitchen stood was being removed, piece by piece of the mangled remains were brought out one after nnother nnd conveyed away on a stretcher, This scene was indescribably mournful and impressive. in Heavy Penalty.—A trader residing Barkervillc, Williams Creek, was lately fined by the resident magistrate in $500 for selling liquor to an Indian. The party immediately paid tho fine and was liberated. Preparing for Cropping.—Wo learn from a party recently arrived here from the interior of the colony, that the farmers were husy ploughing. A very large area of land will bo under cultivation this year. For Cariboo.—It has been estimated that not more than one man in twenty of those arriving in Yale this season is bound for Cariboo. Big Bend is the centre of attraction, and will be so for at least some time to come. "Half the Size."—Our Westminster contemporary, in alluding to the Tribune last week, said that it was nearly " half the size" of the Columbian. It omitted, however, to stato that the Trihu.se contains double the amount of reading matter to be found in our leviathan contemporary. Our readers will observe that the type of the Tkiiiune is a great deal smaller than that used by the Columbian, which makes all the difference in the world. Brewery at Bio Bend.—Mr. Steinberger of Yale is about to start a brewery at Big Bend, the utensils required being already forwarded. A company of Frenchmen are also gono to commence a brewery on French Creek, Kootenay.—News was received here yesterday by express from Kootenay to 25th February last. The season was mild and mining was being curried on. Lively Times.—There has been lively times in Yale during the past week, a largo number of men having arrived for Big Bend. A rival stage company has been called into requisition, and fares to Savana's Ferry have been greatly reduced. Telegraph Company.—Mr. Oonwny, tho active Superintendent of the W. U. T. Co., arrived in Yale yesterday with a number of men en ronte for the interior, to push forward the work of extension.

LETTER FROM PARIS. Paris, February 13,1SC6. The Carnival Closing. We have arrived at the lust day of tlie Carnival. The last fat ox is making his promenade to-day, the lust mask ball will take place to-night, and the fat priests of Notre Dame and St. German l'Auxerais will eat their last fat dinner to-night. To-morrow fasting aud sobriety commence. Were we to record the balls and masquerades of the last week ouly, it would require a book. It has been a mad carnival in tho most extensive sense of che >.ord, though some who probably have drank and feasted to satiety pretend to have experienced only dullness. One would think that Parisians would tire of this annual parade of the boeuf gras, and it is the fear of this that prompts those who arrange the programme to increase evCry year the pomp and circumstance. The fat cattle are of course brought from the country, and for many years Normandy furnished the fattest; but this year the Nievre gained the prizes. There wore forty-three sent as competitors, and seventeen were adjudged worthy of the honors of this occasion. But the number was finally re duced to live. The largest is called the beau hs 2,Vi!0 pounds. o — tii'ul Nievrnois und wei0 _ _,._., The others are named after various personages in popular plays, as Benoiten and the Belle Helena; the next largest weighing 2,660 pounds, and the smallest 2,420 pounds. There are also two butchers who are always in rivalry concerning the possession of these huge creatures, as he who buys them is master of ceremonies during the three days of their glory, and he also provides for the expense, expecting to be repaid with interest by the icceipts gathered on the road. The slaughterhouse is the place for rehearsals, where they march and countermarch, sing and perforin all the evolutions, which are afterwards to be repeated before a public more numerous than tho opera presents. At ten o'clock they set forth, with'music and colors, the whole cavalcade extending half a mile and composed ol 350 persons. First an escort on foot carrying banners, then a triumphal car with an enormous giant glutton, before whom are spread roasts and joints, heads and feet in every state of preparation, which he has the air of continually swallowing without ever being full. Upon his table are all the utensils of tlie kitchen, while Hags float above his head bearing the names of the most celebrated cooks of modern times. After this comes the beautiful Nievrnois himself, drawn by eight of his peers, only a little inferior to himself in size and beauty. All who compete for the honors of this day are cream color. One hundred and twenty musicians accompany him and he stands as one charmed in the midst. Immediately behind him is the chariot, containing a multitude of sailors and savages, in all manner of fantastic costumes and making all manner of fautast'c music. Lastly, is the car which contains the divinities, gods and goddesses, shepherds and shepherdesses, with flocks and herds. High above all, in the centre, is Venus, and around her little Cupids. From each car the tricolor is floating, and hundreds of streamers, red, white and blue; and all who compose the cortege, in carriages or on foot, are fancifully arrayed in the same colors. The boys and girls who represent the various characters present themselves from the markets and shops, and are selected according to their beauty and fitness, and paid from one to four dollars a day. They breakfast at the slaughter-house before departing, return there to lunch, and are supplied with cakes and bonbons during the day. At six o'clock they dine. The oxen who figure on the occasion are not killed till the third morning after their march is finished, in order that there may be no fever in their veins, and their beel steaks arc in great demand. The police decide through what streets the cavalcade shall pass and what houses shall be honored with a "halt." They never fail to call at the Tuilcrics, and at all the Embassies, ^Ministers of State, bankers, and other distinguished persons, where the cashier, who is Venus, perched iu her eyrie, holds out her bag for tho golden gifts. The garlands, bouquets and ribbons are distributed among the pretty girls at souvenirs. The Ball at the Tuiler'cs. The last ball at the Tuilcrics was one of masks and costumes, and very small, not more than a thousand persons being invited. There were a few Americans, among them Mrs. Erlanger, and her sister, Miss Slidell, who represented, the one Sunshine and the other Showers. The Empress personified Marie Antoinette in the day of her glory, with white rutin underskirt and tunic, and long train of deep scarlet velvet, trimmed with ermine and embroidered with gold. The Emperor wore a black coat and small clothes, with a Venetian cloak and the ribbon of the Legion of Honor. He promenaded the salons with the Princess Metternich, who wore a pale yellow silk, in tho fashion of the Court of -Louis XVI. She carried a long cane, covered with white velvet, and a head in the form of an apple, studded with diamonds. The Prince Imperial was dressed as aNapolitnn fisherman. There were so many costumes of the Court of Louis XVI. that it would seem to havo been an arrangement. A Russian Princess, an Italian Princess, and the Baroness Rothschild each wore a costume of the unfortunate Queen, the latter litternlly covered with diamonds. There were a dozen others who might have been taken for the resuscitated ladies of her Court, puffed, powdored and frizzled, and frizzled, powdered and puffed. To describe the half of them would not be possible in our limited space. One lady represented the exterminating angel, with sword in hand, helmet upon the brow, and cuirass of gold upon the breast; and unother, Satan, with robe of fire, and black wings upon the back. There was a King of China, aud a Queen of Madagascar, and a Prince and peasant of every age and country. The rooms were not so crowded as at the ordinary balls, and a sight more curious cannot well be imagined. There have been two or three others at the houses of different Ministers, at one of which wero representatives of the four quarters of the globe, with minor states grouped around them.—[Sac. Union.

SUPPLEMENT TO THE Vol. I. YALE, MONDAY, APRIL 23, 1866. No. 3 THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL. The following is a copy of this bill, which has been passed by Congress over the veto of the President: "Section 1. All persons born in the United States and not. subject to any foreign Power, excluding Indians not taxed, are hereby declared to be citizens of the United States, without distinction of color; but the inhabitants, of every race and color, without regard to any previous condition of slavery or involuntary servitude, except as punishment for crime, whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall have the same right to make and enforce contracts, to sue and be parties to suits, to givo evidence, and to inherit, purchase, lease, sell, hold and convey real and personal property, and to have full and equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the security of persons and property, and shall be subject to like punishment, pains and penalties, and to none other, any law, statute, ordinance, regulation or custom to the contrary notwithstanding. "Sec. 2. Any person who, under color of any law, shall subject, or cause to be subjected, any inhabitant of any State or Territory to deprivation of any right secured or protected by this Act, or to different punishments, pains or penalties, on account of such person having at any time been held in a condition of slavery or involuntary servitude, except as punishment for crime, whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, or by reason of his color or race, than is prescribed for all other persons, shall be deemed guilty of misdemeanor, nnd shall, on conviction, be putiished by a fine not exceeding $1000, or imprisonment for a term not exceeding one year, or both, at the discretion of the Court." The third section gives United States District Courts exclusive jurisdiction of cases arising under the Act, and ulso, concurrently with the United States Circuit Courts, of all cases, civil or criminal, affecting persons who are denied or cannot enforce the rights secured by this Act in the judicial tribunals of the State; and if any suit or prosecution, civil or criminal, has been or shall be commenced in any State Court against any such persons for any cause whatever, or against any officer, civil or military, or other person, for any arrest or imprisonment, trespasses or wrongs done or committed by virtue or under t'olor of authority derived from this Act or the Act establishing the bureau for the relief of the freedmen and refugees, and all Acts amendatory thereof, or for refusing to do any act upon the ground that it would be inconsistent with this Act, such defendant shall have the right to remove such cause for trial to the proper District or Circuit Court, in the manner prescribed by the Act relating to habeas corpus and regulating judicial proceedings in certain cases. The United States Marshals and District Attorneys and agents of the Freedmen's Bureau are empowered to prosecute cases under this bill. Severe penalties are provided for all persons who may in any way hinder the operations of it. The fourth section provides that on all questions of law arising in any case under the provisions of this Act, final appeal shall be taken to the Supreme Court of the United States. Nothing in this Act, however, is to be so construed as to affect the laws of any State concerning the right of suffrage. Later from Australia.—By the arrival of the bark Australjnd at San Francisco, CY days from Sidney, we have New South Wales dates of January 13th: Duun, the notorious bushranger, whose atrocities have long been the terror of peaceful citizens, had been captured after a desperate resistance. Tho sheep disease, which has raged so fearfully in the Australian colonics, has reached its culminating point; the number of animals infected on the 1st of November last being only 16,000. The New South Wales Ministry has been reconstructed, with Cowper as Premier, Robertson as Secretary for Lands, Smart as Secretary for Public Works, Bardeken as Colonial Treasurer, and Pluriket as Attorney General. The political wrangle in the colony of Victoria is still continued. The Parliamentary elections were pending and tho excitement ran very high. A free trade candidate was howled down in Melbourne and not allowed to speak. Charges of bribery and corruption were openly made against members of the Ministry. The prospects of the wheat crop in all parts of Australia are reported to be very fine. The efiects of the late drouth were terrible. Bush fires were raging on all sides ; animals were perishing with thirst by thousands; the heat was intense and the earth was literally scorched. No wonder the people hailed the welcome rain with joy, and offered up prayers for the grateful benefaction. British Columbia Tribune. WEEKLY PAPER. OFFICE—YALE. GEORGE WALLACE, Proprietor. & Editor.

A Revolutionary Veteran.—Colonel Henry Real, a veteran of the Revolution and war of 1812, now over ninety years old, was introduced to General Grant in New York the other day. The Colonel addressed the General as follows: General: I am proud to sec you. I have shook hands with nearly all the Presidents of the United States. I have known all the Generals who have commanded the armies of the United States. I was once one of the richest merchants in the United States, belonging to tlie firm of Henry Real <Sc Co., in this city. I served fourteen years under General Washington, and knew him well. I carried the news of peace, in the Revolution, to the camp on the Commons, and ran like a wild man to the camp through the Bowery, shouting aloud—"Peace, peace; there is peace between Great Britain and North America!" I nursed Martin Van Buren, President of the United States, and spanked him. I have shook hands with every President of the United States sinco General Washington with tho exception of Andy Johnson. I shook hands with President Lincoln in the City Hall iu this city, and that good man trembled like an aspen leaf when he saw me, an old soldier of the Revolution. We have peace now, and we may thank you for it. God bless you, God blcBs you, General Grant. Thk Fenians.—Tho following is from the New York correspondence of tho Sacramento Union: General Sweeny, who is the generalissimo of the Fenians, has revealud his plans, apparently, with such freedom as to make it doubtful whether he is starting John Bull on a false scent or telling the truth. To attempt a revolution in Ireland just now, ho says, is an absurdity, and it is only those who have no knowledge of warfare, no conception of the gigantic force it would take to meet the enemy there, resting on his base of operations, who dream of such a possibility. But he proposes to strike at John Bull three thousand miles from home, and near the Fenians' base, and it is asserted that British Columbia is the destined spot on which the green flag of Erin is to be displayed. Privateers are to swarm forth from the Straits of Juan de Fuca, to prey upon the valuable British commerce in the China seas, and the Pacific is to be cleared of the enemy's vessels. Tho Shenandoah has set the example in those waters, and now John Bull may find that he has act a bad example. Bread, Pies and Cakes, CONSTANTLY OF HAND. A. MrLAKDY. J. P. BARRY'S SALOON, FRONT STREET YALE, B. C. ALES, LI Nkw Mode of Shoeing Horses.—A Paris blacksmith has invented a new system of shoeing horses. Instead of the shoe being placed—frequently much too hot—on the hoof, and burning its own resting place, the outside of the hoof is cut away round the foot to about the depth of half an inch; this leaves a ledge into which the shoe fits, and is then flush with the frog, which just touches the ground, and the whole foot touches the ground instead of being raised as of old by the shoe. The visible advantages of this are that the foot is little pared, and that instead of a great heavy shoe the animal is shod in whut are little less than racing plates. The advantages claimed by the inventor arc, that the horse never slips, that the shoe allows the foot to expand naturally, and that it lasts as long and is as cheap as the old plan. French Girls.—At the suggestion of the Empress Eugene, tho Government has decided that a certain number of young girls educated at the Imperial School for Orphans of Military men, at St. Denis, shall be provided with places in the telegraph offices. From twenty- five to thirty pupils are now practicing daily on Morse's apparatus, with a view to qualify themselves. General Grant's Father.—Jessie R.

THE PRESIDENT'S VETO. The following is a copy of the President's veto of the Civil Rights Bill: "To the Senate of tho United States gret the bill entitled 'An Act to protect the States. If Congress can repeal State laws discriminating in these subjects, why may it not repeal all State laws discriminating on suffrage? The object of the second section is to afford discriminating protection to colored persons by im )sing penalties upon members of Legislatures who may pass such laws, and upon Ju.lgcs or officers who may attempt to execute them. This invades the dominion of I ro | the States, for which there is no warrant, ami a II j for which there is no necessity. I do not np- "'prebend such conflicting legislation as the bill seems to contemplate as so likely to occur as to render it necessary to adopt a measure of such doubtful constitutionality. W , H . SUTTON, WHOLESALE AND RETAIL persons in the United States in their civil rights and furnish means of their vindication,' contains provisions which I cannot approve consistently with my sense of duty to the whole people arid my obligations to the Constitution. By the first section, all persons born in the United States and not subject to any foreign power, excluding Indians not taxed, are declared citizens. This provision comprehends the Chinese of the Pacific State?) Indians subject to taxation, gypsies, as well us the entire nice designated as blacks, people of color, negroes, oiulattoes and persons of African blood. The bill does not propose to give these classes nny status of citizenship in the States except that which may result from their status as citizens of the United States. The power to confer the rights of State citizen ship is just as exclusively with the several States as the power to confer Federal citizenship is with Congress. The right of Federal citizenship, thus to be conferred on several excepted races is now for the first time proposed to bo given by law. -If, as claimed by many, all persons born in tho United States are already citizens, the passage of this bill can't be necessary to make them such. If, onj the other hand, such persons are not citizens, __,__„_ « as may be assumed from the proposed legisla- C Jx Xj I JL1 G li i\l 1 A lio;: to make them such, the grave question presents itself whether, when eleven of the thirty-six States are unrepresented in Con- gross, it is sound policy to make tho entire colored population, and all other excepted!

This perfect equality of white and colored races is attempted to be lixed by Federal laws in every State, over the vast field of State jurisdiction covcred'by these enumerated rights.
