WIS-A-NUC-CA.-The High Old Chief
of all the F-utes, passed through town
on his wsy.to Virginia city, yesterday at
o'clock. He expects to return to-day
10 Dayton, where he will remain this
coming winter. He was accompanied by
his only son, "a lad we should judge
about fifteen years old, and two daugh-
tiers. Weshould judge that he must be
truly loyal to our government, quitting
Copperheads wofully TO shame) inasmuch
as he required two of his subjects to en-
circle him with an arch Of the red,
white and blue" Passing up through
Main street. Gold Hill, he halted at
Wells & Fargo's Express Office, when
quite large crowd gathered around him,
he made a very sensible, though broken
speech, not forgetting 10 make 1t emphatic
by appropriate gestures. One of his
daughters, who by the way, could talk
very plain English, and was quite intelli-
gent, acted as interpreter. He said, to
use his own words as near as We could
gather them the white men come TO
the red mans country, he takes the In
dams lands, cuts down their pine nut
groves, and kill their sage hen and rabbits,
and they give the poor Indian nothing
in return. ! travel around through my
country, and white man want me to pay
taxes and charge me tolls where before the
white man came, my people roamed with
freedom, and now your people say you
give us blankets, flour and meat, but We
no get them unless we pay for them. We
think it hard for white man to treat US so,
and came to ask white man 10 give US
something, but do not want white man
TO give unless he is entirely willing. The
Indian east upon the Plains fight white
man; they will not mind me; try to
stop them. Young Winnemucca is not
my son; he says he is, but he is an i'm
postor. have got but one son; he is
here with me. White man commenced
the war at Ragtown. l did not want to
fight, but I could not keep my people
back; they would not obey me-" We
would say here that Old Winnemucca did
oppose the war Of so with all his might,
but the Young Chiefs council prevailed;
they would have war, Young Winnemucca
leading them. By this time a large crowd
around, and its contents passed to the Old
Chiefs daughter. When she had counted
it, Winnemucca signalled with his fingers
twenty-five dollars, at the same time wa
wing grateful acknowledgement with his
right hand, bowling grateful thanks to all.
He then gave n specimen of the Indian
whoop and started his cavalcade toward
Virginia. Some one in the crowd pro-
posed three cheers for the Old Chief, and
three hearty, rousing cheers were given
all seeming well pleased with the Chief
and his daughters, especially" with the
daughters.
CIVIL PROBATE CoURr.-The following
business was transacted in this Court this
morning. Williams VS.. Lackey continued
by agreement to Monday the Goth inst.
In the case of VucanoYitch VS.. Phillipson
ct ais. judgment was rendered for plaintiff,
to which the defendant took exception and
was allowed stay of proceedings for
DAYS. The case of Paul ct ais. VS.. Arm
strong, is now on trial, and being argued.
The facts in this case as we understand it
are these. Armstrong was in possession
of the International Hotel in Virginia,
and in trisl had before Justice Atwil,
an order was made to divest the defendant
of the possession, and vest it in the plain
tiffs. On appeal to this Court, an order
was made to issue writ of re-restitution,
TO be issued in favor of the defendant,
but the plaintiffs fled q bond in the sum
of 5000 to prevent the issuance of the
said writ. The point at issue to-day IS a
motion made by defendant to stay pro-
ceedings in the case of the bond, and to
fix the amount of the bond at the sum of
800, 900, if the Court will allow bond in
any case, instead of the re-restitution of
the premises, while the plaintiffs wish to
retain possession, and to give no greater
bond than the one already executed.
UNION CLUB Meeting AND REUNION.
The members of the Gold Hill Union Club
will meet at their Club Room, at the old

and with torches, transparencies, and mu-
sic, march down to the Brick Hotel, below
the new Piute mill. At the latter place
they will be addressed by some of our best
public speakers, and have good time
generally. 1t is to be hoped that every
Union man of Gold Hill who has the love
of his country at heart, and is willing to
aid her in this her hour of trial, will
attend and help swell the ranks.
