H EVENING NEWS.

MEErrNe.-The Literary and Scienti6'
Society, which was organized in Golt
Hill a couple of weeks ago, will hold
meeting at Odd Fellows Hall on Monday
evening next, on which occasion Rev. H.
D.. Lathrop will read a paper prepared by
him for the occasion. We call particular
attention to the meeting. 1t is for the in
terest of Gold Killers, particularly those
interested in our mines and mills, to at
tend and to lend their aid in encouraging
the Society in every manner possible.
Especially, we say, attend. The diffusion
of scientific knowledge is what is wanted
absolutely need-here in Nevada, where
the general occupation followed is a COM
paratively new business to our people.
The scientific principles which are appli-
cable to the operations of mining and re-
ducing ores. should be understood by
every n Not only the miners and mill
men should understand them. but the mer-
chant and mechanic also. The best man
ner in which such information can be diff
fused is by the aid of Societies. They are
schools of instruction to the members;
and they teach practical truths. Their
effects may not be immediate, but the in
formation gained through them will be
like bread cast upon the waters. II will
eventually work much good.
INPoRTANr.-It becomes each Superin-
tendent of the mines of Virginia to attend
a called meeting, to be held at the Office Of
the Savage Company this evening at seven
o'clock, 70 take into consideration various
questions Of mining veal, that will effect
the good Of the whole country. The mat
ter is of almost incalculahle importance,
and we hope that tonight the Secretary
of the meeting will furnish the press with
the principal results Of the conference.
One thing is certain. either the mines of
Virginia and Gold Hill are rapidly going
to ruin, or else a mighty moneyed inlu-
ence is crushing them to bankruptcy.
From daily visits, We are satisfied that the
ore has only been marked-that it abso-
lutely requires deeper shafts further east.
The Savage, Curry and Chollar-Potosi
have made a beginning. VIII Gold Hill
follow? We believe the future success Of
Storey county, and in fact Of all Nevada,
{ depends upon immediate and concerted
action.
"OLp GLoRY."-Yesterday afternoon
the flagstaff at the Gould s. Curry Office
was raised, and "Old Glory" Eung to
the Great American breeze that is now
waiting in ftful gales the great unwashed
Democracy across the Goldfish waves Of an
unknown-to Union = The &C.
casion was happy, and several small boys
and men were happy, at the frequent and
liberal dispensation Of a small key Of lager.
The Curry folks have always been liberal
on &" SIGH occasions, and their patriotism
cannot be gainsayed of course not.
However, the flag that shelters both traitor
and patriot swings to caress the breeze
that it loves so well, and in proud con-
seriousness, don't care a d-n for the hearts
that il protects that havn't been its ever
lasting protectors. Selah.
FaEIoHr.-A vast amount of freight has
recently arrived in Virginia the mountains
across, and R. G. Sheath, at No. SO South
c street, has alone received enough goods
OF various sorts, comprising candles, oils,
flour, barley and family groceries gener-
ally, to require a handsome sum Of money
to pay freight, let alone the original costs.
Mr.. Edwards, the agent, assures us that
he has much more en route for the de-
mands of mine and mill owners for goods
at San Francisco prices, freight added
has become so great that the trade has in
creased many fold. for when we can buy
goods at the same price, why go below
after them
EXCELSIOR RocX.-We saw this morn
ing some very rich gold. bearing quartz
from this famous district, taken out Of the
Gibralter ledge, situated in Old Man
Mountain. This mine shows q ledge OF
over ten feet in width. and the owners are
sanouine that they have one Of the richest
mines in the district. We saw at the same
time some specimens from the noted Re
porter ledge, showing plenty of free gold
and rich sulphurets. Verify, the boys out
there have a good thing. Wonder where
our friend is that was to make us rich
with the lucky ones; .
FAcrs.-It Is a startling and agreeable
fact that the Democracy of Nevada are the
worst beaten crowd in America-even old
Pilgrim Massachusetts elected one set Of
county officials who claimed TO be Demo-
Gratis, Cthat is the county where in AZ
they abolished common schools and de-
cided to use a k instead Of a c, as referring
TO Ameri(c)a.) II is also a fact that
Casey, Kelly & Co., North c street, Viz
ginia are selling excellent liquors at low
prices, and would be glad to see all their
friends and the public generally.
OPERA HousE.-For a few days the
Opera House was but lily patronized. but
the boys have begun to congregate again,
and the play OF The Three Fast men !"
last night was excellent. Peasley will be
up with new talent this week, and we are
informed has succeeded in procuring the
services OF the Worrell sisters, Sager girls
and two or three famous clog and jig
dancers, Just out from New York. It's
well. Peasley and Hemmenway have
many friends and well-wishers,
HusIc Hail. Charley Collins is a
orick-that is the way slang has 1t. de
appears nightly at Music Hall. and his
dancing and acting is the chief attraction
though when it comes TO "cases." Tuers,
the heavy beam-propeller, Sheppard
Ward, that beautiful ballad singer. G. Il.
For,es, and Carrie Chapman, Miss Jose

themselves. Go tonight and see the play.
