Passage of The appropriation Bill

On Saturday, the House of Representatives,
hy vote OF l0l to 90, concurred in the Sen
ate's amendment striking out the Kansas
provso. We have not seen the vote, and DO
not know who did this work. In nnnoun-
cling the passage Of the bill, the Toledo Com
mercial says
I"T The Republican members persisted to Il
last in their factious attempt to defeat the bill,
and leave the army without pay or subsist-
cnce; but the return Of absentees gave the
friends Of the constitution majority, and the
!,roviso was abandoned whereupon the two
Houses adjourned without day"
1t is to be hoped that the Commercial is
correct, and that no Republican did vote to
strike out the ploviso. Since the union of the
FILLMORE and Buchanan men, the pro-slavery
forces have had control of both Houses, and
upon their heads let The responsibility rest
II the plains of Kansas are covered with dead
men, and her rivers overflow their banks with
human blood, let no Republican have to la
ment for having assisted in voting men and
money to aid in extending slavery, and to en-
force those illegal, unconstitutional, and in
human laws of the Missouri mob legislature.

IMPROVED RIFLE Box.-The California
Chronicle describes the casting of another
invention for catching the gold in sluice.
The proprietors of this pattern are Messrs.
Auld & Co. The principle of their inyen-
tion is similar to that of Dubois grating
Auld, instead of q grating, uses casting
an inch deep, full of holes an inch and a
half in diameter, except at the top, where
they are only an inch in diameter. The
shape of the holes is supposed to allow the
water to keep in constant motion inside,
and the cap prevents the gold being washed
out. The principle of the projecting cap is
nearly the same in the rifle boxes made by
Dubois & Auld.

DIR. L. j. CZAPKAY'S Surgical and
Medical Institute is SO extensively known in
this State, that any notice of it, or of him, might
seem superfuous. Yet fearing that there are
those who heretofore having had no need OF med
ical aid, have neglected to ascertain the proper
sources of relief in cases of misfortune. To
those we beg leave to direct attention to DR.. l..
}. Czapkay, who is certainly Physician of great
skill and wonderful success in his profession
The DIR. has devoted much attention to the treat
ment of Chronic and Private Diseases, and stands
unrivalled in his management of them. TO those
who need such assistance we eheerfuily recon-
mend DIR. L. j. Czapkay; it would be well at all
events to consult him, as he makes no charge for
consultation, and much good might result from
it. The Dr. guarantees cure in all cases or asks
no compensation.

LATER FROM CENTRAL AMER1CA.-The
Sierra Nevada brought dates as late as
Jan. oath from this region, by which it ap-
pears, says the State Tribune, that firm
treaty of alliance is forming between the
States of Nicaragua and Honduras, at the
same time that Guatemala is preparing to
make grand move against Walker. Car
rera is expected to head the Guatemalan
army, in person. 1t is officered for the
most part by Belgians, who have subjected
the native soldiery to remarkable state oi
military discipline. Costa Rica is also re-
ported as being engaged in organizing for
ces to attack the Walker government. San
Salvador seems to be neutral.

FIRE.-An old shabby she'll, attached to
the rear of the Nevada House, and used as
q cook-house or kitchen, took fire on Tues
day morning last, and but for the timely in
reference of MesSrs. Conness & Thompson
in checking its progress, no doubt our beau
tiful village would have been plain of de-
rastation and ruin, as high wind was pre-
valing at the time. The fire caught from
the stove-pipe, where it passes through the
roof. The damage done was immaterial.
For some time past we have heard deal
of complaint from property holders near the
aforesaid premises respecting the insecure
ty OF the building which took fire, and we
understand the owner thereof, has been i'm
portuned time and again to be more eau
tious in making use Of fire, but all without
avail We hope the warning given will be
sufficient to induce the gentleman to use
more precaution in future. Should fire get
fairly started during the prevalence Of the
high winds which we are now having, all
the powers that be could notsave the town
from total destruction.

FtREMEN's BALL-The Second Annual
Ball of the NJ. H. & L. Co. of this town,
came off at Nevada Hall, on Friday even

sion of exuberant joy and festivity, rarely
experienced in the mountains. The wo-
men-sylph-like angelic creatures-the lad
mired of all admirers never appeared
more beautiful-all seemed transported for
the time being into state Of profound ec-
stacy, blithely tripping the light fantastic
toe" and sweeping through the merry ma
zes of the dance, keeping time to the
sweet swelling strains of voluptuous music.
The supper table was covered with pro-
fusion of delicaces capable of ado-Ding the
festal board of the most fastidious epicure.
The music discoursed by Professor Shaves
Quadrille Band was excellent. At three
O'Clock P. NJ, the gay company in attend
ance dispersed.

MINING Messrs. Eckart & Hale,
mining on Empire Canon, inform US that
on Saturday last they took out $lI to the
man.
The old gulch lying Immediately south
and east of town, continues to pay those mi
ming thereon, at the rate of SIS and 81 per
day each.
The diggings in the vicinity of Georgia
Slide and Bottle Hill, yield from SO to $40
per day to the man.
A nugget of gold weighing % ounces
was taken out one day last week near Nor
mon Hill.
AT Grape Hill miners are averaging $S
per day each.
Miners operating on Antoine's Gulch, are
realizing 81 to 81 day.
At the head of Bear Gulch, we learn a
company of eight men take out on an av-
erage three ounces of gold per day.
Rich surface diggings have been struck
lately at Volcanoville, which pay largely.
Several nuggets of various sizes weighing
from one to six ounces have been found.

QUARTZ SPECIMENs-We have been pre-

ent veins in this neighborhood, in all Of
which the glittering "oro" is distinctly Wis
ible to the naked eye, in many places. The
veins from which they were obtained, are
represented as being extensive.
The discoveries, unfortunately, like the
majority of miners generally. are in indi-
gent circumstances, and unable to erect
mills thereon, and consequently will be COM
PEELED to await patiently until something
turns up whereby they will be enabled to
reap the benefits of their discoveries. We
don't mention this latter fact for the pur-
pose of 'roping' in those who have capital
to invest in such speculations, but merely
to inform those abroad that there are in the
vicinity of Georgetown as rich untested
veins of auriferous quartz as can be found
in California.

Keep mp your Organizations.

The time is near at hand when the Amer
can party will be called upon to do oattle
in one of the most vehement Presldential
contests that has ever tranSpired since the
establishment of this Republic. In order
to present an impenetrable front capable of
withstanding the inSidious attacks of "un-
terrified Democracy, it is essentially neces-
sary that the American party should keep
up their organizations in every nook and
corner. 1t is the only available method of
bringing about united action. Be vigilant,
the success of the party depends upon it
Democracy is on the alert-its leaders are
straining every nerve to coalesce its disaf-
fected limbs for the onslaught, Gwin and
Broderick are no longer at lOggerheads;
each expecting to don the Senatorial toga
in the course of coming events. At pres
ent, the outward appearances Of Democracy
seem as unruf1ed as the bosom of placid
lake on calm day. The Tammany and
Chivalry wings are blended together in one
common brotherhood, the former having
completely swallowed the Kansas n ebraska
Bill without murmur, while the latter have
made profuse promises Of future rewards.
In the forthcoming Presidential cam
paign will be involved the settlement of
grievous and direful questions now threat
ening the permanency Of the Union. The
civil war feeling manifested in Kansas
which has already assumed fearful atti-
tude-and the protracted ballotings at
Washington in the lower house of Congress
without making choice of Speaker to pre-
side over its deliberations, are but mere ink
lings of what may be expected in future
A fore-runner of strife, discord and disu-
Mon inconceivable in its tendency, which,
if not "nipped in the bud," will sooner or
later prove disastrous to the prosperity and
advancement of the greatest nation on earth
the asylum of the oppressed and down
trodden of the world.
The American party, the only one in ex-
istence possessing the requisites necessary
to quell and forever silence the disunion
feeling pervading the country, should not
be dilatory in keeping up its organizations.
The time is already at hand for untiring,
determined action. We would impress it
upon those having the welfare of the party
ever uppermost, and who wish to see it tri-
umph, to be up and doing.

county and other contemporaries, as being
an excellent singer, possessing full, round
musical voice of great compass and dis
tinct utterance. Mr.. Lester has appeared

ted vocalist, and we have no doubt the en-
tertainment will be of high order.

NOLCANOYILLE. Feb. 25 Is

'OANANO' Lilly EtU. 20, 1000.
MEssRs. ED1ToRs:-One cannot help but
feel pleasurable sensation, existing as we
do in one of the loveliest climates of Gods
blest creation. IT'S here we view nature in
all It's grandeur, and wonder what extraor-
dinary and numerous influences have given
this rough country regularity in its rough
ness, which softening its jaggedness, renders
it agreeable to the eye-while from the dis
tance there appears to be but complica-
tion of hills without shape or form, rising
above one another until their peaks are lost
in the hazy distance; yet when we reach
the SUBMITS of these hills we are apt to see
table land possessing many charms that
one does not anticipate.
Situated as We are on the ridge of the
Middle Fork, we have command of o large
extent of country to the eastward, level and
we'll timbered, rendering pleasure trip at
once agreeable and inviting, if it were not
for the scarcit' of population beyond
Spite of our location quite village has
sprung up around us, and perhaps few To-
cal items night not be uninterest!ng.
There are three quartz mills within half
mile of town, one of which has been rum
ming; the other two are not vet completed.
Que of them will be, when completed, pro-
baby the best constructed mill in the State.
1t is expected that they will all be IN ope-
ration before summer. There are numerous
tunnels running in the hills, and the Grizzly
Tunnel Co. have succeeded in finding good
pay. The slope of the hill near town is ali
claimed, and three companies are at work
on it making large strikes; and the summit
of the hill on the southeast side is being
washed and pays well. We have not a
very extensive population at present, but
those we possess are mostly at work making
money. Our town has two billiard saloons,
one tastefully finished, owned by Messrs.
Moore & Andrews, and the other, with a
ten-pin alley attached, belonging to Messrs.
Lancaster & Bartlett. All the boys around
this section are acquainted with Mr.. L.,
and know him to be deserving of success.
We also possess two hotels and six stores.
A year since this place was almost en-
tirely unknown. We are laboring under
two great difficulties of cOmmunica-
ton and want OF water. We have ditch
here, but it is entirely too small to supply
the wants of the miners, and our only de-
cent means of communication is by way of
Works Ranch, long journey for SO short
a distance.
A Ball is to be given here by Mr.. Will
liams and lady, of the Volcanoville House,
on the 9th of March. This will be the first
ball in this town, and we must endeavor to
ensure its success.
Since my return I forward these trifles
relative to our "go-a-headitive" little town.

ANOTHER Fossn-We were shown a
few days since, by Mr.. T. W. Wilson, a
fossilzed tooth of Mastodon, taken from
the same claim on West canon as the one
we noticed few weeks since. The last
was about double the size of the former,
and in much better state of preservation.
The claim is very prolific in gold, as well
as fossilized remains, rendering the labors
of the owners of profitable and scientific
character.
