Eastern and Western Boundary lines between Viz

Virginia would never consent to enter upon the

just below Madison is likely 10 prove total loss.
The cabin furniture, and freight on her boiler

Rebuilding of shasta.

The work OF re- building our town is going
forward with the most crafty ng rapidity. Some
twenty houses have already been erected and
occupied by merchants and others on the sites
of their old stands Among these we may men,
ton the names of Messrs. Loag, Mackay,
Rhodes & Lusk. Callahagn, Young, Adams &
Co., DR.. Shurtlef, jacobson & Co.. Hullub &
Isaacs, Norton, Myers g. Ruder, Plummer g.
Mitchell, Downer & Co., Chase and Gavand.
Todd & Jones have also erected ware house,
one hundred feet deep, on the fiat to the north
of Maine street. In addition to these, numerous
buildings going up, while others will
be put in process of erection as the
lumber can be brought upon the ground among
these are the ST. Charles, Empire, and Eldorado
hotels.
Indeed the entire business portion of the
town is being rebuilt with almost magic rapdi-
ty and few weeks will suffice to make Shasta
in every respect superior town to what it was
previous to the fire. Maine street is now 100
feet wde of itself one of The greatest securities
against the spread of fire that could possibly
have. When it is properly graded it will be one
of the handsomest streets in any mining town
in the State. In short, all we want is another
month TO place Shasta in stntu quo ante bellum.
