VERY CNPRErTY.-A correspondent at
Brandy Flat writes US, that mining camp
was thrown into state of excitement on
the night of the 18th, BY the discovery that
the wife of one of the citizens had conceived
an affinity for another most sedate inhabit-
ant. The latter had been invited to sleep
IN the house of the married pair. Every
thing went on smoothly till the night in
question, when the spouse was found miss
ing from the couch of her liege lord, who
Instituted search and-horresco refsrens!-
discovered sight that is apt to disturb a
married mans equanimity. The misused
husband, not Ia Sicklcs, but like a philos-
opher, proceeded to reason with the guilty
pair. Not deeming the subject matter of the
discourse of the henpecked, pertinent to the
issue, and thinking that two in a room un-
der the circumstances were enough and
three too many, the two arose and conformity
drove the interrLptor of their fun out of
doors.
The boys were soon informed of the oc-
currence and thinking the festivities of the
occasion wanting in music, had a few pieces
selected from Miner, Kitchen l. Co., consist
ing of pans, hydraulic pipes, kettles, etc,
with which they gave few e1tempore per-
formances- Our correspondent says the
affair has been compromised by the old lord
selling out his right, title and interest in all
real and personal property to the new orc.

INDIANS on TIE HESyEss PAss.-We learn
from reliable authority that Indians were seen
| within six miles of Jackson's ranch on Tues
day. They were probably scouts. The keeper.
of stations on the Hsnness route are leaving
and driving their stock in this direction
There is consequently no feed for animals on
the route. Olin's passenger train is ready to be
put on the road. The want Of stations will de-
lay the train for some days.
We are informed by men familiar with the
mountains that the Indians have stone towers a
few feet high, on the tops of the high ridges, on
which fires are built by night to communicate
intelligence from one point to another. This
kind of telegraph has been in use among them
many years.

MORE BoAsTNG.-The Sacramento Union,
OF Wednesday, INDUCES in more boasting of
the e1ertions put forth by that city. 1t says
mo city has manifested more liberal
spirit" "They plunged their hands deep
in their pockets" etc.
We are willing to acknowledge Sacra-
mento has done nobly. But she had more
than four hours the start of Nevada in the
way Of information of the Pyramid Lake
massacre, and we were obliged to send to
Sacramento for percussion caps, spending
eight hours more. Still Nerada raised al
together S2,555 in cash, besides risking
$4,000 in animals, and put well armed
| company on the road in twelve hours after
! the first information of the necessity of
troops arrived here. When it is taken into
consideration that large share of this time
was consumed in waiting for caps, we think
some credit for activity and liberality should
be awarded Nevada. Can Sacramento make
as good a showing2 We challenge her to
the test.
While on this subject we may as well
mention the fact that an additional charge
of $40 has been demanded of our citizens
by the Sacramentans for those caps they
took the credit of sending. The cost of the
caps in Sacramento was $40. The very
moderate price of $50 was charged by the
patriotic Sacramentans for getting the little
budget here. The extra forty has been paid
| We hope the Union will institute an in
quiry if any more money is wanted in that
city. If so, we can assure it the War Com
mittee here have quite a smart sum left
As certain people have gone down very deep
in their pockets, the money may be wanted
and is subject to their order.
