MORE ABOUT JoHSsoN.-It is now be-
ieyed that A. L. johnson, the missingiman,
was made way with in Virginia City. He
was last seen there late in the evening of the
day on which. he disappeared, BY NJ. Kone.
man. of Silver City, with whom he intended
going in the omnibus to Gold Hill or Silver.
Mr. Koneman explained to him that it was
the last bus that would go down that night,
and urged him to come and get a seat at
once. 1t appears that Johnson was busy
talking with some one at the time, but said he
would come and go in the bus. Mr.. kone-
man presently lost sight of him, and he has
not seen him since. The amount OF money
he had with him was not as great as mas oeen
stated; he had but about $500 IN coin and
check for one thousand or twelve hundred
dollars. Those who are best acquainted with
him say that he was person very unnKey
to have left home without informing his
friends. For the past two or three days we
have made great deal of inquiry in regard
To this matter. and the above is in accordance
with the facts to the best of our knowledge;
It has been reported that the affairs Of Mr..
Johnson were not in such hourishing con-
dition as was supposed by many; and, 1t is
true-so we are informed at the District
Clerks ofice-that attachment suits were in
stituted against him on the very day OF his
disappearance; vet, having been personally
acquainted with Mr.. Johnson for three years
past. we cannot believe las is reported) that
he has absconded on account Of financial diff
fculties. 1t is certainly reasonable to sup
nose that had he done so, he would have gone
better supplied with funds, as it is well known
that he was in the habit of handling large
sums of money. At all events, vigorous
investigation Of this matter should be made
at once, and if this gentleman has been dealt
foully BY, no pains should be spared to ferret
out and bring to justice those engaged IN 1t.

of duty either fine or imprison her, and she
was accordingly discharged.
