LAFAYETTE COMPANY. - This Company
has claim located on the south side Of
Crown Point Ravine, east Of Bowers Mill. |
This is one of the oldest locations in the
ueighborhood, have been made, VIC believe,
in 50, and contains 900 feet. There were a
couple Of shafts sunk on this claim at an |
early day, and since then long tunnel has
been run into the hill south OF the rayinc.
This tunnel, which has been run in several
hundred feet, is not now worked but there !
is shaft being sunk about FIVE or six rods |
east of its mouth where the Company is doing
work all the time. This shaft is being sunk
large enough, so that when 1t is tmbered |
with three inch planks it will be four BY eight
feet in size in tie clear. 1t is now about
NSS feet deep, and SO far has been sunk
through dry and firm, but not hard ground. |
II has not been timbered at all yet, but Will
be rs soon as it is sunk as far as the ground
will allow it to be with safety. Then the |
workmen will commence at the bottom and |
timber upwards. This is as good way to |
operate as any other, where the nature OF the |
ground is such as TO permit it; but when !
company proceeds in this manner it IS usually |
the case that it keeps sinking, and sinking |
until it is no longer sale to work in the shaft; !
but it is absolutely dangerous to do so. This |
will probably not be the case with this Com |
pany, which has already done so much work |
that what it does now it is fair to presume it |
will do well.
ANOTHER New CATHOLIC CHuRcK.-The |,
Rev. P. OReilly has been appointed pastor |
of God Hill, American Flat and vicinity, by
the Right Rev. DR.. 0'Connell, of Marysville.
The Rev. Father O'Reilly is no stranger to
the people over whom he has been placed, as
many of his former pensioners from Trini
", Shasta and Tehama counties are scattered
over his new field of labor. Next Sunday he
commences his mission, and will celebrate
mass in suitable place in Gold Hill, when
he will take proper measures for the erection
Of 4 church forthwith. We congratulate the
Catholics of Gold Hill and vicinity in receiv-
ing such an efficient priest as Father OReilly
has proven himself to be, during the last six
years, in the northern portion Of California
onion.
STRUCK II RlcH.-The Tyler company
struck it rich in its shaft to-day. The ledge
was found at the depth Of fifty feet. 1t is
very large, and the woi kmen are sauguine In
the belief that it is the same as the Uncle !
Sam. We saw some Of the rock which was
taken out this morning, and if it is fair
sample of the ledge, the Tyler company has |
as rich a claim as any on the Flat. We will
visit this claim and ascertain its true extent |
and richness at the earliest practicable mo-
ment, and give more full information con- |
corning it.
A Row.-A row occurred about IL o'clock |
last night in gambling house on B street,
yirsinia-at Robson's old place-and in
zsrugele that ensued for possession of pistol
it was discharged, and the ball from 1t passed |
through I woman's dress, slightly grazing |
her leg. Knives were exhibited, and for
time the chances for a fight appeared quite
favorable. The report of the pistol attracted
quite large crowd to the Saloon. The par
ties principally interested in the disturbance
were arrested, and this morning had hear
ing before Judge Davenport.
MORE MrD.-The streets Of Virginia are
again deluged with rivers Of thin mud. La
dies with trailing dresses find it difficult
matter TO navigate tue hSEiots tAVI III
without becoming sadly bemired. The quartz
teamsters find much difficulty in pulling up
cross streets, and teamsters of all sorts do
considerable amount of swearing.
THE omnibus line between this place and
Virginia is well patronized just now. But
for the buses there would be but little travel
between the two places, except BY persons
HAVING innDortant business to attend to, as
the late rains have made the walking very
disagreeable.
For SALT LAxE.-Next Sunday Mr.. Chas.
Pope, Miss Virginia Howard and Mr.. Walter
Leman leave by the Overland coach line for
Salt Lake City.
THE roads are again pretty bad in the
mountains-that is, slippery and sloppy.
SOME fifteen arrests were made by the Vir-
GINA Police last night.
