Reese River Items

We clip the following from the Reese
River Reveille
STEVENS LoDE.-Mr. Montgomery Of
Rig Smoky brought into our Office yester-
d.S : piece Of rock from the Stevens lode
At Bunker Hill City, that resembles in Its
prufusion Of leaf and wire silver, speci
mems from the celebrated AlamOs mines
of the State Of Sinaloa, Mexico: AS the
specimens that adDrn many cabinets from
The iast tDs,,sjs42sGt l.ih<; &Fv1sTos0a . depth
Of about two thousand feet, while the one
from the Stevens was taken from near the
GurfAce. it confirms Onr often expressed
on;nion. that the lodes of the Toiyabe
~sn0e are the richest in the world. The
cteTcns lies in the midst of number OF
the richest lodges ever discovered. The
Victorine, Morning Star and others as
GOOD as its nearest neighbors.
OLANcHo.-Dr. Stearns was, last week,
che fortunate discoverer Of one Of the rich
est silver bearing lodes yet found, to
which he has given the name OF Oiancho.
Il is situated near the telegraph leading
, from huStIu 10 Iuc OIu Vunisidht ioaH'
The lode is about one foot in thickness,
and the location ispade for six hundred
feet An excav4sn has been made up
an il to the depth Of Ave feet and stripped
for twenty feet. Several samples were
taken for assay, some being choice pieces
others taken blindly in order TO form an
accurate opinion OF the general value of tho
vein. The assays we're made by Veatch
4 CO., and were six in number, varying
from SlO9 9S to $5559 16, averaging t'l
the mass Of rock Sls26 per ton. A quan
tity of the ore was taken to the mill, and
more will rapidly follow.
GRAxD Turk LoDE.-Situated on the
hill bordering the north side of EmigranI
canon is the Grand Turk lode, upon which
two locations, each Of eight hundred feet
have been made-one by the Grand Turk
company and the other by the Robinso7
company. These two companies are now
engaged jointly in sinking perpendicular
shaft four and half BY eight feet square,
upon the dividing line Of the claims, and
are taking out some very rich chloride ore
An incline had been previously sunk upon
the ledge to the depth Of sixty feet, at
which point tie lode was over four feet in
width. The work is now under the SUI
perintendence Of Mr.. j {. lie Nard, and
machinery will soon be erected to tacili.
tate operations. Juding from present ap-
pearanccs, We pronounce this one Of the
most permanent mines Of the district.
Real DEL NOME AND BHowN LopEs -
During the last week some rich di-covc.
ries have been made in the Real del Monte
and Brown lodes Of Bunker lIiu District.
A short prospecting tunnel vas run into
the Brown opening the most tiattcrng
prospects. 4 uumbcr Of large pieces oi
the rock were brought in, anl are on cx-
hibition at Cook & Brothers store. Some
extraordinary good roc&.SaS also found in
the Del Monte, several thousand onui~
Of which is expected in to-day for crush.
ing at one Of the Austin mills.
NEW Mill SrARrED.-The Butte C0un-
ty Mill at Pizarro started its batteries yes
Ierday March 22iJ. Itwi!l at first crush
rock from the Piz1rro lode for securing
and trial Of machinery, and aftcrward,

Yes, Would the War was Over.

Yes, would the war was over,
Would the cruel work was done;
With my country undivided,
And the battle fought and won,
Let the contest now before us,
Be decided by the sword,
For the war cannot be ended
Till the Union is restored.
CHORUS.
Yes, would the war was over,
Would the cruel work was done;
With my country still united,
And the many Stars in one.
Dead upon the field of battle,
Husbands, sons and brothers lie;
Friends are waiting-wives and mothers
Looking for them-bye and bye.
Far away from home forever,
Many a noble hoy lies slain;
Look not for thy child fond mother
Thou shalt see him not again.
Yes, l would the war was ended,
And the cruel struggle DER;
But our flag must be DEFENDED,
And our country as before.
Peace indeed, is Heavens blessing,
Though its joys are easy lost,
Still Wen battle for our nation,
Whatsoever it yet may cost.

THE 'wrsE FooLs OF 'GorHAx Lon an emdiiihcnce

THE WTsE Fools OF GorHAM.-0n an einincnce
about mile south of Gotham, village in Not
tinghamshire, stands a bush known as the
+" Cuckoo Bush" and with which the following
strange legend is connected. The present bush
is planted on the site of the original one, and
serves as a memorial of the disloyal event which
has given the village its notoricty.
King John, as the story goes, was marching
toward Nottingham, and intended to pass thro'
Gotham meadow. The villagers believed that
the ground over which king passed, became
forever afterward public road and not being
minded to part with their meadow cheaply,
by some means or other they prevented the King
from passing that way. Incensed at their pro-
eeedings, he SENT soon after, to inquire the
reason of their rudeness and incivility doubtless
intending to punish them by fine otherwise.
When they heard of the approach of the mes
sengers, they were as anxious to escape the con-
sequences of the monarch's displeasure as they
had been to save their meadow What time they
had for deliberation, or what eounsels they took,
we are not told but when the Kings servants
arrived they found some of the inhabitants en-
deavoring to drown an eel in pond some drag
ging their carts and wagons to the top of barn,
to shade a wood from the suns rays; some
tumblipg chooses down hill, in the expectation
that they would find their way to Nottingham
market and some employed in hedging in a
cookoo. which had perched upon an old bush.
In short, they were all employed in such man
ner as convinced the Kings officers that they
were village of FOOLS and, consequently, I'M
worthy of his Majesty notice. They, of course,
having outwitted the King, imagined that they
were rise Hence arose the saying, :. The wise
fools Of Gotham" iGotl sttD .ttH

, LESSON FOR CowARpLY You've Men.

A LESSON roR CowARDLY YOUNG MES.-A
well.known young recently succeeded in
getting a certificate of exemption from the board
of enrolment, en- the ground of physical disa-
bilitY, andshastened to lady love to announce
his escape. Strangely to him, the good news
affected her in an unexpected manner, and she
withdrew from his presence with but the shadow
of an excuse. The young man was COMPOUNDED,
and thinking of rivals, sought explanation of
the lady's father, who always treated him gra-
ciously, and was favorable to the proposed alli-
ance The father in turn was mystifed and
Immediately seeking his daughter, found her in
great grief, fOh, father sobbed the girl, 81
have been shamefully deceived Oh, how NOR
tifying, to be known to be engaged to man
who comes shamelessly to me, just before our
marriage and rejoices in physical disabilities
Why did you not tell me that the i'm
perfect sickly, before matters went so far ?
] have no ambition to turn my future home into
a domestic hospital, or myself into perpetual
nurse ~
The father tried to assure her by saying that
probably trihing ailment, magnifed by the COM
plant, might have obtained his exemption from
service and reminded her that her lover was a
fine rider, graceful skater and expert in most
manly exercises. "And under all this, )" added
the fair girl; 8" he hides some dreadful infrmty !
Surely you do not think would be engaged to
him if knew him to be consumptive, scrofulous
or worse? thank God that the draft has lifted
the mask And the actually delights in
being advised as physically disqualified to serve
his country. Oh shame! He shall know, -
said she, rising with proud indignation, " that
he is physically disqualified to husband me- And
the father, phisiologically considering how the
seeds of disease are entailed from one generation
to another, approved his daughters decision,
and Informed the young man that he was exempt
from the proposed marriage the ground of
70 physical disability" ~

Sos AeAINsr FArHER.--Pugh, of Ohio, having
said that a regiment of Democrats could put to
flight all the negro troops enlisted, Jefferson Y
Toombs, mulatto, challenged the distinguished
Copperhead to test the truth of his brag in q
personal contest, selecting his own weapons.
Mr.. Toombs is a SON of Brigadier General
Toombs-formerly u s. Senator Toombs Of
Georgia-by female slave. His paternity is
distingushedly honorable, but his color is un.
constitutional. 1t is matter seriously to be re
GREETED that Mr.. Pugh should be quarreling with
the son Of his old friend.
