In addition TO the above, two bids were sub
mitted for erecting the building upon cheaper
plan than called for by the specifications, viz /:
BY Mr. Bell, for s2,47O so, and by Messrs.
Marsh, Palmer q Perry, for $3.50 so; but the
proposition of Messrs. Long 4 Shultss was the
cheapest in proportion to the amount of work
10 be done, aud their bid was accepted. The
site selected for the hospital is little over half
mile from the Court House, on an elevated
tract Of ground near Deer creek, being on the
upper boundary Of the Hauk Ranch. The Su-
pervisors examined oil the localities near Ne
vada, with the view of taking up site but
were not able to fnd any suitable location on
vacant land, and finally concluded that the
cheapest and safest plan would be to purchase
the cite. The ground was purchased OF Mr..
Tiltou for $3.50. The tract contains about five
acres. which will be sufficient for hospital pur-
poses, cemetery, etc. n

PLAxTISG VNEYLeD.-We learn that Mr..
Josiah Rogers is engaged in fencing large
tract OF ground on the east side Of American
Hill, with the view of planting a vineyard ear
y in the spring. The land is thought to be
well adapted to the culture Of the vine, and
water for purposes Of irrigation can be procur-
ed without difleulty and at little expense. The
ground will never be disturbed by miners as II
contains little or no gold, the granite rising
nearly to the surface. The grape culture is
destined to be carried on extensively in the
mining districts Of the State, as our mountain
soil is peculiarly adapted to the vine and the
business must always be profitable. A few
acres of ground, fenced and planted in vines
this season, will be fortune to the owner in
the course Of three or four years.
