FIRE ENeINE.-One of the teams Of the
Fast Freight Line, from Folsom, passed
through Gold Hill this morning, having on
board the splendid FIRE engine recently pur-
chased in San Francisco, for Company No. 8,
in Virginia. Good, large fre-plugs, with
plenty Of hose and water, are the most SER
viceable fire engines we can recommend to
the corporate authorities of Gold Hill, and
we trust the day is not far distant when a
Fire Department of this description will be
inaugurated. As our Town Trustees will
meet next week, and as the Revenue Officers
of the corporation are now engaged in the
business of assessing the property of the
people for revenue purposes, perhaps the
Trustees will bring this matter up before
them, and take some action upon 1t. We do
not wish to be offcious in our suggestions, as
we have all confidence in our town officers
believing that they are doing their best for
the people.
-CoNcLUDED.-S-,t the par
ty whom we left up to his arm-pits in the mire
of Washoe Lake, some days since, has sue
cecded in extricating himself from that un-
pleasant predicament, and arrived in Virginia
this morning at s o'clock. In pitching out
of the boat, he received slight scratch on
the back of his hand, which has assumed
very malignant form-threatening erysipelas.
We have always said that such slight accl-
dents were dangerous to hard drinkers, but
now we know it to be fact from actual OBJ
Servation.

How he got his Wife.


John W, was, or is genius He
made quite pile IN the Ne sican war, and
invested it in canal boat running on the
Ohio canal. John was q bachelor, but in
c, urse Of time was smitten by the little
god. An old farmer. who lived on the
''heer' path, near Massllon, had two rosy
checked daughters, but all attempts to gain
an introduction by the admirer, were foiled
by the old man. But John was not dis.
,ouraged. A large chunk of beef bought
of the mastih, and John proceeded to de-,
liberately appropriate the various articles
hanging on the clothes line Chcmzettes
and stockings, breeches, shirts and things
were crowded in ingorious confusion into
ca?acious bags carried by John on this oc
casion. They were brought aboard the
boat and placed III the bow cabin, to pave
the way for an introduction on the return
| trip.
A week after the boat passed the farm
house on its way south and John jumped
ashore. and went to tho house. He repre-
sentcd that one of his drivers had stolen
the clothing; that he had discharged him,
and desired to restore the article The
young ladies' we're delighted, as the sack
contained al their SUNDAY fxings." The
old man said: s'
81 always thought that all the boat,nen
wor.ld steal; and l am delighted to find
one honest ono. You must call again,
captain" -.'.
The captain did call again, and soon af.
ter he n arried the 'Ayoungest."
On tho wedding night he told his wife
the ruse he had used to gain an introduc
ton. and the old man gave orders that no
more clothing Be lett "out o'nights.'
