| Eases came up for hearing IN JuuSe Dafeu'
port's court this morning: F. Votes, fight
ing arrested BY Captain Clarkson, fined
SIS; paid, and was discharged. John Alley,
fchtinr, arrested by officer Byrnes; dis
charged. there being no evidence to convict
him Of the charge. May Queen, native of
the Flowery Kingdom, and n bully gal with
. glass nose, arrested by Downey on a charge
of disturbing the peace, fined $50, and in de-
fault of the scadS sent to the lookup for ten
DAYS. Yea, verify, the May Queen hath be-
taken herself unto her bower-her bow-wow-
wower Itappears that she maSsed herself
and charged upon the domicile of an OBJ
noNiouS fellow-country woman, smashing, in
her raid, everything breakable that could be
found on the premises. "Those conduct"
not being considered becoming to Queen Of
the May, nor conducive to the peace andquiet
OF Chinatown, Downey the gepUS loci of that
odoriierous suburb, gobbled her up, and the
fractions Queen is now reigning Gears with
in the gloomy walls Of the Castle de Purcell.
Sich is life ThoS. Mitchell was brought up
on a warrant by officer Hays for fighting !;
fined S20-paid. Hedges, the right-hand
man Of the Rail-splitter, doubtless, charged
with fighting, arrested by officer Downey,
will have hearing at 10 O'Clock tomorrow
morning. Connolly, fined yesterday, came
into Court and paid SIS; Matthew's, ditto,
S25; Ally, ditto, S25.
MILTON CoHrANY.-This company keeps
at work in its west drift, and have now run it
about forty feet into the solid quartz of the
ledge, which it struck about a week ago. The
quartz is still of about the same quality, and
has about the same appearance, as that hrst
81, . nnfr SI1 tFhf
Improvement in its quality as the drift goes
farther into the ledge. 1t is all brown gold
bearing rock, and apparently contains good
quantity OF that mineral. The developments
thus far has shown that there is an enormous
mass of quartz down there, be its quality
what It may.
TYLER CoMPANY.-This company's shaft
is now 50 feet deep, aud timberCd all the way.
Il is much lower than the shaft which was
sunk on the other side of the ledge, and only
about 100 feet distant, and that >naft is now
half full Of water. 1t is supposed that there
is Il dyke of clay or close rock i'll the ledge
between the two shafts which keep the wa
ter from the new one. There is all the time
4 gradual improvement in the quality of the
rock found in going down in this shaft, and
the company are confident that it has rich
thing.
SAVAGE CoMrANY.-The work on this
compauy's mammoth shaft is being steadily
carried forward. II is now niuety-threc feet
and timbered all the way down. The rock
and dirt is hoiSted BY two windlaSSeS, one at
each end Of the shaft. The shaft is already
so deep that the pull is getting to be very
long and machinery OF some kind will soon
be required BY economy 10 take the place OF
man power. The company continues to take
out surprisingly rich rock and can well af
ford to erect machinery.
RICH Rocx.-We saw some rich gold
bearing rock at the Jewett claim yesterday.
1t came from the shaft at the depth Of los
feet. In color it is redish brown, and in
quality it is coarSe-grained and easily crum-
blcS 10 pieces. The thickness Is not yet as
certained. 1t was struck in the shaft day be-
fore Yesterday, and has not yet been passed
through, though work has been going on all
the time since. Perhaps it will prove to be
very large ledge. 1t apparently is very
rich.
ARRIvED.-The boiler for the Dardanelle
company arrived at the claim yesterday. 1t
was the frs; part of the machinery which
was started from California and left Sacra-
mento about six weeks ago, but for some
reason was DELAYED and the company has
suffered considerable delay for the want Of it.
As all the rest of the work is in I forward
state and near completion 1t vii! not take
long now TO finish the work and put it in op-
Grafton.
\ MYSTERIOUS DIsAPPEARASCE.-A man
BY the name of John W. Atkins, of Silver
Civ, has suddenly ard unaccountably dis
appeared, and fears are entertained that he
has met with foul play. 1t appears that he
went up to Virginia some three or four days
since to get 4 check for some seven hundred
dollars cashed, since which time nothing has
been heard Of him.
BULLION SHIPPEp.-Wells, Fargo & Co.'S
Express shipment this morning was four
bars of bullion, weighing in the aggregate
1879 pounds, and worth, according to assay,
ST, 34S Is. This was an unusually light ship
ment. but then, few mills clean up in the
middle Of the week.
PISTOL LoSr.-At the fire on Tuesday
morning, policeman Householder lost his
pistol, a navy six-Shooter of the new pattern.
The finder will be suitably rewarded by leav-
ing it at the Justices office, or at the Station
House.
DUSr AGAIN.-It is again found necessary
to sprinkle the streets in Virginia, they being
quite dusty. 1t was very warm in Virginia
this forenoon-fuids, with ice in, being in
great demand as conducive to comfort.
The Ogden & Wilson Mill, just east of
Virginia. on Six-Mile Canon, is now in regu-
lar operation, having secured thorough
oyerhauling.
