Cold TREATMENT OF ORES.-At Silver
City few days since, we visited the mill
of Mr.. Jos. Trench, to witness the work
ing of Mr.. Estes Cold Process. The
amalgamating machinery employed is the
same as that used in the Hatch Process,
and is not well adapted to cold working,
vet we were informed that the cold treat
ment had Welded an excess of five pounds
of bullion per week, worked side by side
with the hot. This cold treatment is now
in use in Dodge 4 Merchand's S and Trench
4 Sparrow's mills, at Silver City, and in
the Timmerlick Mill, .Washoe Valley,
where it is found to work equally well, if
not better than the hot process.
FoRCIBLE ENTRY IN DAYTON. - The
place in Dayton known as Hanly's Sa-
loon, was entered by three burglars last
Friday evening. They were driven away
however by person sleeping in the build
ing, before they had time to lay their
hands on anything of value.
THE VIRGINIA HORSE MARKET is get
ting to be quite an institution. The auc-
ton sales on c street are generally well
attended, and although horses sometimes
change hands there at very low prices, yet
fair rates are more generally obtained.
DEVILS GATE MINING DIsTRICT.-Thc
rush to Reese River docs not seem to have
taken off many of the real working miners
ofthiS vicinity. Work is beingprosecutcd
in all the mines here with as much vigor
as at any time during the season.
THE Echo MINE-Is situated about
one fourth of mile above the Devils
Gate, near the toll-road. Work which
was suspended for several months, has
been resumed in good earnest. The shaft
"a double one) has been well timbered,
fine horse whim erected, and everything
is in readiness for hoiSting the rich ores
for which this mine is justly celebrated.
THE W1HoNA MINE, DEVILS GATE
DIsrn1cr.-This company are pushing
their work forward night and day with all
possible dispatch, and are raising very fine
ore, which is at present being crushed at
the knickerbocker Mill, Silver City.
The O'CoNNELL &. & S. NJ. Co.,
have resumed work in their mine situated
Just below the Devils Gate. Their pros
poets are very fattcring, and at some
future date We shall give full description
of the mine and works.
FINE PRINTING.-Wc would be per-
mitted to state, that the DAILY News
office possesses fine facilities for the execu-
ton of the most attractive STYLES of Job
printing. So well are we prepared for
this, that no person in this District will
now be compelled to go out of it to obtain
printing because it cannot be obtained in
the District. We have some very elegant
new styles of Mining Stock Certificates to
which we invite general examination.
The UNCLE SAM AND SwEzY.-On
Saturday last the suit at law between the
Uncle Sam and Swezy companies, Of Gold
Hill, was decided in the District Court
after close and elaborate argument, in ia
vor of the Uncle Sam. AS we under
stand the case, the Swezy claimed that
two lcdges existed and that the Uncle
Sam was not entitled to the ledge it
claimed. 1t was shown, however, in court
that the Swezy had encroached upon u
well defined and legitimate ledge.

mitted to fight, according to the scientific
rules, right in the street. Gallagher
whipped Brooks, and bullydom is ready
for the next excitement.
