PERsoNAL-On Thursday we were pleased
to receive visit from Mr. S. T. King, travel
ing editor of the San Francisco Srir,s Of the
Times, "a sporting journal,) who Is now So
Journing in the mountains, soliciting subscri-
bers for that excellent journal, and making ev-
erybody pleased with himself and paper wher-
ever he goes. Strange that all these city ed
itors are such likely, good looking chaps
plump, rosy-eheeked fellows, who would outdo
even Robin Hood or Friar Tuck in "nip''
with their mining confreres. But mountain
editors who have to work early and late, cook,
bake, boil, wash clothes. make beds, hunt
items and delinquent subscribers, set type,
distribute, attend balls, theatres and weddings
all the same day, have but little time for cere-
mony in a" showing around these city gents
This is our excuse for being absent or not
accounted fer" during the visit.

Big TREE GRoyE.-The people of Cave City
ARE determined to complete their new road
through to the Big Tree Grove making the
distance from San Andreas to the Grove about
eighteen miles On the completion of this
road, parties can stop over night in San An
.dreas, and next day visit the Big Trees, with
sufficient time to examine the Mammoth Cave
and the Falls of the San Antonio, which are
directly on the new route. We also learn
from Dr. Teach, that some new caves have
been discovered in the southern base of Table
Mountain, in which the Indians formerly hid
themselves from pursuit, and secreted their
stolen stock. The Doctors ranch is about
half way between Cave City and the Big Trees,
and a mile and quarter from the Falls of the
San Antonio. Parties visiting that section
will always find good trout fishing in the
