TrsRy-The indefatable Jerry Sullivan
!, canned the climax of all exploits Of ex-
resses and newsmen.
The late arrival of the steamer on Friday
\ last week rendered it impossible to send
b packages to Sacramento by the afternoon
at but being determined TO forestall all
tbers in the news line, he chartered the Steam
Surprise at an outlay of one thousand
Ollars, and dispatched her with his packa-
!, at eight o'clock at night. She arrived
Sacramento before daylight on Saturday,
Id his clerks having assorted the packages
} the trip mp, all his customers were suppli-
by the stages that left the city that NOR
big for the mining regions. Those who use
lch ezertions should certainly be patronized.
Te are indebted to Jerry as usual for files of
.antic and European journals.
