places arc separated by a small creek.

Dor, saying: "How is it, friend NJ, l
hear there is prevalent disease on your

CONSOLIDATION.

The Union Of this morning struck anew
streak, and made PLAIN unynnished
statement of fact, uncolorcd by prejudice
and without word of comment. 1t is
Us follows:
Mr.. Daggctt has given notice m the Legis-
lature that he will introduce bill for the
purpose of consolidating tine three govern
mcnts of Virginia, Gold Hill and Storey
county. The citizens Of Gold Hill are OPP
posed TO this arrangement, and a remon-
STRANGE against it has been circulated and
almost unanimously signed BY them for the
purpose of stopping further proceedings.
They oppose the bill because Gold Hill owes
nothing and because Virginia owes much,
and because they think they are now doing
very well. Mr.. Daggett's object in introduce
ing the bill is to dispense with many officers,
obtain 4 better government, and reduce tax
alton. He thinks that Gold Hill will be so
much benefited by the change that she may
well afford to help us pay the debt when it is
made. The Gold Killers think not.
That is the whole consolidation story in
a nutshell. Mr.. Daggett informed us the
other day that he was about to fortify his
position with all the requisite facts and
figures, and expressed his confidence in
being able TO convince the unbelieving
Thomascs of this burgh that their interests
Law in the direction of consolidation. We
doubt his ability to show them the holes
to put their finger in. Great things, how
ever, have been accomplished by men Of
less sagacity than Mr.. Daggett. and as we
have once missed our guess as to what the
people of Gold Hill would and would
not do, we have taken in our sign as
prophet. We understood Mr.. d. to say,
that when he had obtained the necessary
statistics, he should compile them, together
with the arguments in favor Of consoida-
ton, in the form of circular, and distri-
butte them among the people. We think
he had better save himself the trouble and
the printing bill.

SAILED The \ No. l, full-riggcd
ship "Constitution," Bill Stewart, captain,
sailed this morning, as per notice, from
the Bank Exchange. Her cargo Of freight
was heavy-there being great deal Of
dead reight for ballast-but her passenger
list was rather small by reason of the pre-
vailing disgust at the inclemcncy of the
weather. The ship weighed anchor finely
and got out into the stream without any
accident. When she set sail there was a
large and odmirinS crowd on the wharf,
who babe their friends a warm and rather
cheerful farewell. The passengers, al
though few in number, seemed resigned
TO their tate-being fully conscious of
their destination-the head waters of Salt
River. As We were aboard we furnished
each with bottle ofConstitution pepper
mint. copy OF the Union Platform, few
copies of the News, and clay pipe.
Judge North and Captain Stewart seemed
like twin brothers. and their attention was
engrossed most of the time in reading
their speeches, which they delivered at
Maguire's last Saturday night. The ship
will touch at Silver City, on her voyage,
take on board DIR. Zabriskie, and keep on
her course until she reaches Carson, where
she will stop a few hours to take on
board several gentlemen who are entitled
to a passage, not the least of whom is
Mark Twain, Esq, the historian of the
Hopkins Family; Sandy Baldwin, and
several Others.

JoHS PHOENIX OUTDoNE.-A paragraph
has been going the rounds Of the press in
which an account is given Of horse having
a new hoof grown on by the use of certain
farrier's ointment. Now, this reminds us Of
an incident Mat happened in Lyons, Wiscon-
sin. A Mormon priest named Nichols pro-
fessed power of doing miraculous things,
and compromising wonderful medicines. He
made nerve and bone all-healing salve, and
thought he would experiment a little with it.
He first cut off his dogs tail andapplied some
of the salye to the stump. A new tail grew
out immediately, He then applied some to
the piece oftail which he had cut off, and a
new dog grew out. He didn't know which
dog was which. This may seem a tough
story, but we have Nichols word for it, and
we don't think he would lie.
