The Chavoya Grant. — Concerning a recent survey in San Joaquin county, the Stockton Republican, of yesterday, has the following: We understand that the survey ef this grant by Von Schmidt, Deputy United States Surveyor, has been completed. Much excitement exists among the settlers at the location which has been made, and there is talk of resistance. The settlers insist that by no possible process can the claim be located upon the southern side of the Mokelumne river, which has been done by this survey We undertand that the settlers will hold a meeting today, at Woods', in reference to the matter, and take measures to procure a new survey. We also learn that Beaumont, the County Surveyor, coincides with the settlers in their views in regard to the location of the grant The new survey, if made, will be placed before Mandevllle, United States Surveyor General of this State for his consideration.

He is to be sentenced on Saturday next, and the opinion is that he (as Dicky Ricker used to say) will have to suffer some by being imprisoned— to which there are many who will say Amen! Webb, whom he assaulted, has stuck to this case like a man and deserves all praise. He says that he is informed that propositions will be made to him in a day or two, to settle it by a compromise of money, to which he says, most emphatically, No ! no ! no ! All he asks is to have him put in prison, where he should have been long ago.
