DouGLAs NoMENATroNs.-The Douglas men
of this county formed their county ticket at Ne

are spoken of generally as worthy citizens; but
whether they will make good legislators, if elect

ness habits in other departments of labor, is pr-
ma facie evidence OF fitness in this, We are
particularly pleased with The selection made of
Capt. N. c.. Mllief. So far as intelligence, in
tegrity and decision of character are concerned,
his friends and acquaintances of all parties, wall
indorse him. His chief ineffciency will be his
lack of Legislative experience.

AURORA BoREALIs.-Between eight and nine
o'clock of Thursday ever6ag, the citizens of San
Juan were entertained with magnificent dis
play of the Northern Lights. The sky for ff-
teen or twenty degtees above the north, north
east and eastern horizon, was flashed with
deep scarlet tinge, which gradually changed to
purple, and from purple to a silver hue, and
then expired. The exhibition continued for
about an hour. Some alarm was created On the
first appearance of this dioramic illusion, from
an apprehension that suburban portion of the
town was wrapt in confagrgtion; but the facts
socn became apparent, and the brilliant illumi-
nation which at one moment prompted feelings
of alarm-in the next inspired emotions of a
sublime and thrilling nature.

LADIES. FEsTIvAB.-On Saturday evening
last, the ladies of North San.Juan gave Festi-
val at the Theater in aid of 'the salary fund OF
Rev. Mr.. Brooks, of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. Three lengthy tables were spread with
the choicest delicacies of the pantry, and most
delicious fruits of the season. That usual ad-
junct of such occasions, post-ofice, was in full
operation, besides one two other admissible ex-
pedients, popular among the young folks, where
the outlay of four bits was certain to bring a
quadruple return, in the way of heart's-ease or
palatable comfts. The attendance of ladies was
large, and of gentlemen respectable. The sum
realised, we understand, amounted to upwards
of $3.50. Mr.. Sam. Samelson volunteered his
services with the violin, and Mr.. Aug. Wettig
presided at the piano. The affair, throughout,
considering that it was next thing to impromptu,
reflected much credit on the fair, who are ever
foremost in work of philanthropy or self-sacri-
ficing generosity.

CABIN RoBBED.-Tuesday night the cabin of
Mr.. Wilson, on the hill, was entered, trunk
broken open, and fine cloth coat stolen. The
trunk contained other articles of valuable cloth
ing. but the thief-god wot did not think pro-
per to molest them!
ANOTHER CABIN RoBBED.-Thursday night,
the cabin of Mr.. James, situated on San Juan
Hill, was entered and robbed of new pair of
boots and carpet sack. There were watch,
breast-pin and trunk of clothing in the cabin,
which the burglar left untouched; he was prob
ably frightened away before he had completed
his explorations. If search were instituted,
there is no doubt but some of the numerous ar
ticles stolen within the past four weeks could be
found, and the guilty parties brought to justice.
> So An attempt was made one night this week,
to force the lock ON the door of Mr.. Reamer's
store, at the lower end of Main street, which
aroused those in the store, and the burglars
made off. This is the second attempt to break
into stores within the last two weeks-Messrs.

their iron door broken by some one endeavoring
70 force an entrance.

s. B. A.-There are quite number of sailors
engaged in mining enterprises-not a few of
them in this immediate neighborhood. They are
cosmopolitan class, and come from all parts of
the world. In the absence of relatives, during
the hours of sickness and adversely, they require
the solaces of friends. The sympathy existing
between themselves is probably more to be relied
upon than that which springs from any other
source and believing this to be so they have
formed Benevolent Association, with COM
mon fund, accumulated by common contribution,
from which, in misfortune and suffering, their
wants are readily supplied. The institution is
most excellent one. At one of its meetings, held
last Sunday, an election of officers for the ensu-
ing year took place, the announcement of which
will be found in our advertising columns.
REPUBLICAN MEETING.-The Republicans
held mass injecting in front of the Oak Tree
Market, North San Juan, ON Thursday evening,
and were addressed by Thomas Fitch, ESQ.,, Rev.
Mr.. Cummings and Mr.. Andrew Hartman Two
or three hundred people were in attendance, VINO
gave respectful attention to the speakers, and
at intervals greeted them with hearty APPLAUSE.
An ensign, inscribed wath the names of the Re-
publican Presidential candidates, supported by
the American flag, hung pendant from rope
stretched across the street, and several transpa-
rencies were exhibited from the balcony over the
rostrum. Altogether, the meeting was very Or
derly, as such gatherings generally are in the
mountains, where the office-seekers are neither
SO numerous or hungry as they are in the larger
cities.

they deserve Statewide notice. Printers, pray
