sob in stark County.


Hartville in Lake township. is noted as
the most intensely copperhead locality in
these parts. 1t is said that there are but
three Uuiou men in that village. On Sun.
day hast, said Coppcrheads gave unmistak-
aldo expressiOn,of their sympathy with re-
bols in a manner that we shall relate.
Mr.. l. q. Nighman, recruiting ofh1er,
went there to recruit, on Saturday. On
that evening there was singing school. and
a number Of young men read Mr. Nigh
man 8 bills that he had posted up at Mac
hamers tavern. On Sunday morning ten
young men we're enlisted by Mr.. Nighman.
Thus far all went well. But in the after
noon, a crowd Of butternuts, among them
some Of the relatives Of the enlisted boys,
assembled at the tavern with the intent, II
necessary, to keep the young men at home.
They avOwed their determpation, also to
ride Mr.. Nighman on a rail, and to innict
upon him such injaries and indiguitles as
would prov tent his revisiting them; Not
one shouh 20 from Hlrtyille to tight and
be killed in this damned Niger war-"they
would railride, tar and feather, shoot and
hang any recruiting officer that dared to
show his face among them !" Such was the
drift of their defamation. 1t was kept up
until they became an iufuriated mob, and
and seized two of the enlisted men and took
them away by main force. Mr. Nighman
was in serious predicament, and but fol-
the support of Mr. George Machamer, the
landlord who stood nobly up in his defense
he would have been sacrificed. Even after
he had retired for the night, the mob made
ar, effort to get up stairs, drag him from hi
bed, to wreak their vengeance upon him
aud would have done SO had not Mr.. Geo
Mashnmer, pistol in hand, gallanty barri
caded the stairway with his own body, Il
save his guest from peril. Later in thu
night while keeping guard for their prey
tho Butternut mob were heard firing thel
pistols about the house and cheering TO
Valhndigham and JEFF. Davis. Mr.. N.
being convinced that his purpose Of recruit
ing there must be suspended, and havin
warning OF the intention to use him violent
lywhcn lie should leave the house, manage
to escape during the night. The best paI
of it is that eight Of the men enlisted b
him escaped also, and arrived in this city o

It is not likely tha, such rebellious proceed
ings, such outrageous violence of law an
order can pass with iinpunity. Wheth,

THE EASTERN NEWS.

We could get no dispatch to-day Of
later date than that in the Piute of this
morning. The telegram in that paper is
not of any stirring Importance. The reb-
els were reported destroying the railroad
near Winchester. Most of our army
passed through that place On Saturday.
The rebel force is estimated at about 55,-
600. Sheridan's reported retreat was
feint. From Grants army we hear Of
indications of movement on q grand
scale. Fort Morgan, at Mobile, is in
vested, and at last accounts an attack was
being made. In the vicinity of Atlanta
the rebels make an occasional dash at US
but are invariably defeated. MarysviIe,
Kansas, was reported sacked by Indians
on Sunday the l4th inst. No particulars
have been received and the statement is
doubted. Gold stood in New York, on
Saturday at 2573. The foregoing sums
up all the news in the Piuts's dispatch.

SANITARY.

Almarin B. Paul, Esq, of this Town,
has received the following Commission
from Rev. Henry Bellows, President of
the o. S. Sanitary Commission:
SAN Francisco, Aug. Is, 1864.
Whereas, it is considered desirable to or
ganize Nevada Territory into Branch of the
y. S. Sanitary Commission. do hereby APP
point Almarin B. Paul, Esq. President Of
said Branch, to be known BY the following
title: "Sanitary Fund, Nevada Territory
Branch of the United States Sanitary Com
mission" And do authorize and request
him to call Convention of the Presidents of
the different county Sanitary Fund Commit
tees, at any convenient time, for the better
and more systematic organization Of univer-
sal measures for collecting the liberality Of
the Territory always so generousG towards
our sick and wounded soldiers. 1t may be
interesting to state that California is already
similarly organized, and that Oregon and
Washington Territory, in all probability will
be, in the course of month.
HENRY w. BELLOWS,
President of the U. S. Sanitary Commission.
P.S.-It is proper to add that this appoint
ment has been made, without any request or
knowledge on the part Of Mr.. Paul, but pure
" from a conviction founded on personal OBJ
seryation, Of his zeal and ability in the cause.
H. w. BELLOWS.
California is similarly organized, but
she adopted the plan already in operation
il, this Territory. Gov. Low is the Pres
ident in that State.

DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE.-Th The Buzz
gard shooters of Washoe met in Terrific
rial Convention on Saturday night and
nominated A. c. Bradford for delegate to
Congress. As Bradford's name has been
intimately associated with the knights of
the Golden Circle, and every scheme of
Secession devilment that was ever Matched
on the Pacific Coast, the nomination was
eminently consistent, fit and proper. If
the Democracy" of this territory have
sufficient force and strategy to defeat the
Constitution and elect delegate, there is
not a man in it who would more COM
pletely represent the principles of that
party, and render more efficient aid to
JEFF Davis than A. c. Bradford. As the
adoption of the Constitution. however, is
about a dead certainty, the nomination
will amount to nothing,

MINING COMPANIES AccorSrs.-San
Francisco papers suggest that it would
greatly tend to establish confidence in
different mining companies-or in fact all
of them-if the Trustees would publish
quarterly statements of their financial
condition, and show TO the stockholders
what IS done with all the money which
they pay over on assessments. We Sec
ond the motion: and if the proposition is
not carried out, we would suggest that the
next Legislature of Nevada and California
enact laws making it compulsory upon
companies to make such statements pub
lie. Stockholders would then find out
"where the money goes and they
would also find out that some of the
money that should go to pay the printing
bills of the companies, does not find its
way where it properly belongs

Mr.. W. F. STEWART, Of this city, has Just
returned from three weeks sojourn in Ne
yada Territory, where he has been putting to
thorough practical test his new process for
working silver ore. We are glad to know
that he has met with full measure Of sue
cess. There are thousandf Of tons Of slum,
or ere, from which all the pay silver has been
worked by the old methods Of amalgamating,
piled up around the quartz mills of the Ter
ritory, Mr.. Stewart takes this ore, and BY
the application Of his discovery, at cost not
to exceed SIS per ton, makes it pay from $40
to $50 to the ton. He has filed his caveat,
and taken out his first papers for patent.
Frank has struck his fortune, sure, and con-
ferred an incalculable benefit upon the
country.-Saa Jose Mercury.
Franks great invention may be all he
represents-but few over here will "see
it." The figures are too high-too high.

FILLING UP THE HoLEs.-The "Regu-
lars" are having an uphill time of it with
their nominees. The regular" glue is
not as tenacious as the celebrated Spaul-
ding's, and their candidates don't appear
to stick. On Saturday evening last, the
Central Committee met and the names of
Samuel Sankey, James Brennan, A. H.
Emanuel and John Nelson, candidates for
Assembly, being found to have peeled OFF
of the ticket, those of C. H. Beckwith. S.
D. Meagher, W. S. Miner and James
Wilcox, were daubed with the regular
glue, and pasted over the blanks. The
appearances indicate a season Of damp
weather, and it would be well for the
Committee to remain in constant session
with supply of names and paste-pot to
fill up the blanks as other names drop OH.

ANOTHER ANSWER FROM THE
SEA.

The San Francisco Argus quotes our
article of last Monday, headed what
shall We do" concluding with the follow
ing question:
All right, neighbor. But what shall "the
miners Of Nevada Territory" do with those
San Francisco Stockholders who send over
greenbacks 10 paw assessments, leaving their
Secretaries TO pay off the miners Herewith
at 10 cents on the dollar: They can't get
hold oftheir persons to "tar and feather"
them.
The Argus answers US sternly In the
following language:
We grant the hardship of the case, but
there is no other effective way at present
than 10 visit the sins of the principal upon
the agent. This is severe doctrine, but It
is legal and moral one. Give the agents
fair notice not TO present greenbacks and
thew will not be presented; gold will be
found, or the mines will practically fall into
the hands Of the Woodworking miners; and
when the secretaries and agents occupations
are gone and their presence dispensed with,
then let the names Of the San Francisco
greenback swindlers be published once a
week for three months, 1--WE venture to say
the list would not increase very IdPIulIl win
the hint that they had better defer visit to
the Territory until they had become honest
men. This is the way, there is no other at
present A desperate disease requires des-
perate remedy at present
But fellow citizens Of Nevada, you should
lose no time in forming State Government
and passing Specific Contract Law. Our
Supreme Court has decided in its favor,
and its decision is hailed with joy BY all our
mercantile community. This law will be
the salvation Of our State, and while all may
tumble and crash around US, we shall stand
firm. 1t is this feeling which has restored
public confidence among US. II any people
or Territory ever wanted strong and peo-
pies government, it is you II it were for
no other purpose than having Specific Con-
tract Law, and having il properly executed,
YOU ought to have your State government I'M
der way. The people Of the Territory are
fortunate in having 50 plucky, outspoken and
50 honest sheet as the Gold Hill NEWS.
We thank the 4rgMs for its compliment,
and commend IFS suggestions to the con-
sidera6on of the people.
