NEVADA, WEDNESDAY, APRIL rs, 1860.

From WAsHoE.-We are indebted to John
Weber, Esq, who arrived few days ago from
Virginia City, for some items in regard to the
silver mining prospects in that county He in
forms US that the Comstock lead has been open
ed at different places from half mile north Of
Virginia City to Gold Hill--a distance of four
miles, At five different places between these
points, companies are now at work taking ont
silver ore, and the vein has been struck in a
number of other places Not foot of any OF
this ground could be purchased for less than
five or six hundred dollars, and much OF it
would sell for as many thousands. He thinks
that the prices now ruling for the ground are
much below the intrinsic value. In the Walsh
claims they have lead OF silver ore foot
thick, the most of which yields $1,000 ton,
and the vein becomes richer aud heavier the
deeper they go down. Silver ore has been
found in q number of other leads, but none OF
them can compare with the Comstock for rich
ness. The Phoenix lead and the Desert lead,
located some miles east of Gold Hill, assay
from $500 to $1,000 of silver to the ton.
vein Of stone-coal, situated few miles east OF
Virginia City, was discovered and taken up
few weeks ago, by VIM. Lindsey, formerly of
this county. The coal has not been tested, but
the vein il believed to be valuable. Mr.. Weber
10 not very favorably impressed with Washoe
as a country to live in. lie says, If you can
imagine food in HI, succeeded by q snow
storm, you will have some idea Of the character
Of the country. Some Of the former residents
OF Nevada have made fortunes. Geo. Hearst
and Jos. Clark are said to be worth over half
million eaeh and Henry Meredith has been Of
fered $15O,0O0 for his interests. Hearst and
Clark sold $4,000 worth of ground not long
since, and Clark is now on his way to San
Francisco for the money.

SPIRITS AT FOREST CITY.-The Downieville
Democrat relates that at spiritual circle, held
the other evening at Forest City, Judas Isoariot
informed the company that his master had be-
come recOncled to him, and that he, Iscariot,
now enjoys as good accommodations as any one
in Heaven. He uses the old argument If |
hadn't betrayed him one of the others must
have done it--that was understood Peter was
Christ's second choice
