Ia the NEVADA Journal of November

and publish the proceedings of miners meet
ing held at Remington Hill, on the 18th Nov.
as the principal object of that meeting appears
to have been in changing the name of the dis
trict electing q Recorder and villifying myself
| shall offer to its projectors few suggestions,
both for their benefit and that of the c0mmu-
nifty at large, as to the RecorGership Alta
meeting held July 18Th. 1885 at Remington
hill district, l was duly elected Recorder Of
that district, to hold it until July 1856.
assure those who conferred upon me the honor
and also those who appointed my successor
(nine months before the Office became vacant)
that will retain the records Of said Office
and discharge the duties thereof during the
term for which | was elected. | also beg leave
to return my sincere thanks to the parties con-
cerned IN changing tie name of Remington
Hill district +; naming place inhabited by
such class as now rule in Pebbleyille, after o
man, is about the same honor that it would be
to stand sponsor to Penitentiary, or a convict
ship.
AS to the personal reasons which prevented
the record OF certain claims, they are to be
found in the fact that BY the Laws Of the Dis
trlct the Recorder was entitled to fifty cents
for each claim recorded, and as this did not
agree with the general system upon which
these parties operated, and as large portion
of the ground claimed was the property of the
Recorder, declined furI hing to the world
gratuitous evidence of their rascality.
would also beg leave to return his thanks
TO the parties present at the meeting of the
18th OF November for tie compliment shown,
in extending his powers to the determining and
deciding what shall be deemed suicing, end
what tunneling claims, and only accepts this
increased responsibility, from the knowledge
that in the discharge of its duties, | will be
aided and supported by a constituency whose
character for honesty and integrity stands so
high in the community where they are known.
that it has never yet been discovered.
In conclusion, the undersigned assures the
new corporation Of Pehbleyille that their feel
ings toward him are fully reciprocated, and
trusting that they may soon occupy the exalt.

Coal MINES DISCOVERED NEAR Stockton -
We learn that coal mines have been discovered
about thirty miles southwest of Stockton at the
head OF Corral Hollow. in the coast range.
The Stockton argus says that party of
surveyors were engaged to examine the Pass,
to ascertain the praeticability of making a
railroad up and through it, when one of the
party driving a stake in the banks of al arroya
struck coal bank. The coal is Of very
hight substance; but from the appearance of it
will be of great value in the manufacture of
gas and also useful for the purposes Of fuel
An excellent road might be made between the
mines and the San Joaquin river where the
coal might be shipped to all the parts of the

MIsTAKE.--In justice to the Water
company, we are desirous of correcting
al error into which we fell in our last is
sue. We stated that since the movement
to reduce the price of water, by the mi
ners, had beon made, the ditch company
had resolved to sell water at the reduced
price of 80 1-3 cents per inch. We are
credibly informed, that the reduction had
been long in contemplation by the COM
pany, and that such an intention had been
often expressed before any action was had
by miners to force a reduction. From the
tenor Of our article last week entitled
"Miners on Strike" the reader might
receive the impression that the water ven
ders had made partial reduction in order
to mollify the miners and save themselves
from some dreadful consequences. Such
was not the case.
