A correspondent of » stockton paper furnishes among other brief sketches of the and charac- ter of this notorious villain, the folowing incident:— At the battle of the Salinas he greatly distin- geinee bimrelf as a foe to the Americans, and after e battle, amidst the admiration of the Californians, was copgratulated as valente de los valientes, (bravest of the brave.) In the action he headed the ty that made the onslaught on Capt. Burroughs. bristian Chuuncey, who stood near Capt. Foster , told me shortly afterwards that it was “Four fingered Jack,’ and not a Californian, that killed Capt. Burroughs, and that he did it to get the horee aud saddle on which he rode. I would mention that the horse was the celebrated bay, “Sacramento,” presented by Capt. Satter to Col. Fremont a long time previous, and which had been to the States and back. The horse, however, afcer the fall of his rider escaped, fully ca) ed, to the caballada of the Celifornians, but finding strange company, immediately retarned to the now victorious Americans, when it was discovered that the pistols in ie holster, a superb brace, had not been dis- charged. Avvu eighteen months after the battle, Jack came into Mosterey, and J then first saw him; he appeared to be about .wenty-eight years of age,and had a very disagreeable, cogyish cast in his teatures. I was in- formed that he had just returned ‘rom Mexice, where he had been emvloyed as a vaquero by a cer- tain General, who had gone thither tu raise an army of 25,000 mea to retake California. During his stay in Monterey he fell ia wita his old chum, Mountain Fred, who was then thought to be a reformed man. Learning that the favorite horse “Sacramento,” for which he had risked so much, was running at large on the Tulare plains, Jack and Fred soon mus- tered a party to proceed and catch him, together with otber wild bores. Jack boasted he would never return to Monterey urtil he brought “Sacra- mento” with him. He kept his word, as that noble snima) is now roaming wild on the Tulares, like the “White Horse of the Frairies,” free as the wind that courses through the day, Five BURGLARS AND COUNTERFEITERS ARREST- ED IN Massachussrrs.—Several robberies have been recently perpetrated in the town of Barre, Mass. On the 30th ult., says the Barre Gazette, the bourse of Mr. Lyman F. Rogers was entered and robbed; also the grocery store of Mr. John W. Rice, where the roobers left some silver ware which they had stolen fiom the house of Mr. Rogers. Suspicion resled on juur young wen who arrived in Barre ou Monday, from Worcester. and who booked their Lawes ab the Massasoit House as Charles £. Marah, Joby Wilbams, Jasper Robinson and William Smith, They had been ab-ent from the hotel on the night of ‘the scbbery a 2000 part of the time. Early on Tussday morning Rebinson and Marsh leit. the hotel, but the otber two, who reaiained, were arrested, and upon examining their valise was found ative barreiled revolver, a ‘* billy” (a powerfal bur- glavious instrument), powder, alls, shot, a prefuse quavtiy of small keys, medicines for drugaing, aud various kos of gaming implements. obingon avd Mursb were botly pursued to Hubbard-ton, where they were arrested on Wednesday morniog. ané also aman named Charles Soatawics, who had been seen in their company. The following coucterfeit money was found in the possession of the rogues:— Fifty-eight one dollar billa on the Union Bank, Boston, {a new and dangerous counterfeit]—one thres dollar bill on the Marble- Bavk, Bangor. Marsh, (whose real name is Georg? Poud) ond Robinson were examined on the charge ot bevivg counterfeit money in their possession, aad in default of bail were committed for trial: The others haye not yet been examined. Marsh attempted to escape by leaping from the second stery window of a toure a distance of about twenty feet, but the whole village was soon aroused, and after a brief pursuit he was recaptured.

The operations of the eompany thus far have been highly productive, The steam engine, required for more extensive operations, will be om the ground early im October, when a large force will be put at work in the veins, and the product largely increased. The principal veim has been proved for sight hundred feet, and besides carrying a rich leader of copper ore, vie.ds vast quantities of black dirt varying im richness from twelve to eighteen per ovat, Notwith- standing the disadvantages of working without the steam engine, the product of copper in the month of August, with only ten miners, was valued at about $6,000, ata total cost of only about $900. For some days past the Florence and Keyport stock has been quiet.
