Who is responsible for the creation of this
mighty loss to the nation? Assurediy those

these? According to the testimony of Andrew

BEAUTIFUL |! BEAUTIFUL !-Oh, what
q beautiful sight was witnessed this morn
ing in the Office of Wells, Fargo s. Co.'s
Express, in Gold Hill. Personally, we
are not particularly welded to money 4;
and we are free to admit that the only at
traction that money possesses for us is its
uses. But after the sight we beheld this
forenoon, we confess that we feel more
ambitious than we felt yesterday. The
bully mine of Gold Hill, the Yellow
Jacket, this morning had hirty.nins silver
bricks, all in a pile, at the Express office,
the assayed value being upwards of
seventy-ive thousand dollars! These
bricks were assayed at the offices of Van
Wyck & Sanchez and Conrad Weigand, in
Gold Hill, and were nearly all beautiful
specimens Of the science of assaying.
Other parties added eight more bricks to
the lot, making a total of forty-seven
bricks, or bars, all in one lot, and weigh
ing three thousand two hundred and if-
teen pounds of assayed silver, the total
value of which was eighty-nine thousand
seven hundred and .6ortyJfre dollars and
forty cents! This is truly a dreadful state
of affairs-our mines are "giving out "
so. Oh, dear! Gold Hill is on the verge
of petering

Re-construction In South Carolina.
The South Carolina Reconstruction
Convention has resolved that the Union is
the first and paramount consideration Of
the American people; that all sovereignty
resides solely in the American people, and
that the authorized representative of that
sovereignty, within the limits OF the Con-
stitution, is the General Government.
They further conclude that the late war
was not one of oppressed people against
tyranny, but arose simply from an ap-
prehension on the part Of the weaker Sec
ton of possible tyranny in the future.
The war, therefore, not having been strict
" in the nature of q rebellion, they sug-
gest to President Johnson the justice md
wisdom of not enforcing the penalties
affixed to the crime of rebellion by the
laws of the United States. AS an earnest
of their good faith they indorse the acts OF
President Johnson, and express a deter.
mination to cordially support his wise and
patriotic efforts to restore to the whole
country the blessings Of peace and pros
perity. The Constitution OF South Caro-
lima is framed in accordance with these
principles. Civil and religious liberty,
trial by jury, freedom of the press, subor-
dination of the military to the civil power.
are secured to the people Of the State, and
slavery is declared forever abolished

DON'T LIKE 1T.

-
In the proceedings Of the Copperhead
County Convention, held yesterday, in
Virginia, We notice several features worth
remembering: Jimmy Buchanan's boy,
"Governor" B. B., remarked that he
did mt like the idea Of a secesh minister
Of the gospel being compelled to take the
oath of allegiance before a Provost Mar
shall" This idea of B. BIS is very stale ;
it never was very popular among traitors
and secessionists-not even down South.
But what is "Governor" B. B. going to
do about it, Another: Mr.. Mitchell, the
Democratic candidate for Congress, eS-
pressed himself as much disguised with
the Registry Law, and said it was an out
rageous statute, and should be erased.
Well, we never yet knew Of a Democratic
Legislature to favor such a law, for the
very reason that a least half the voters OF
that party would have to pay a tax they
otherwise shirked, or skulked from. or
lose their votes. There is no illegal vot-
ing with such a law-no colonizing from
one Ward to another-no voting two,
three, four, or a dozen times, as was done
by the victorious " Democracy" of Storey
county, last year, at the September cleo
tion-some voting at every Ward and
precinct in the county. That game is
played out under the Registry Law, and
hence the disgust of the CoPperhead party.

FEE, FAw. Fo, FuM.-We think that
persons endowed by nature with keen
olfactories may "smell the blood Of an
Englishman or rather of the entire
tribe of John Bulls. One of the weeklies
informs US that the terrible Fenians have
sent divers ship loads of arms to Ireland,
and that large numbers Of Yankee-1rish-
men, in the employ of the Brotherhood,
are turning up in the could ART" We
trust that our Government will take steps
to "enforce the neutrality laws" after the
orthodox English fashion, and prevent
our bloody-minded adopted citizens from
frightening our foreign relations.

The DEMocRATIc SPLIT I N New YORK.
The Benz Wood jeff Davis Democracy of
New York has seeded from the regular
organization, and like their old allies, the
rebels, have set up a political government
of their own This is an important move,
and indicates the separation throughout
the Union of the War Democrats and
those whose ultra State Rights doctrines
are represented by Sunset Cox, Pugh, VAL
~landigham and Pendleton. Ben Wood
represents nothing but the organized de-
pravity of his class of lottery dealing,
negro trading gamblers and thieves. 1t is
the ~wickedneSs, m~alignity and general
atmosphere of evil which characterize and
surround JEFF. Davis s. Co. that attract
such villainous scamp as Ben Wood.
Dean Richmond, who has as much to say
about the management of the Democratic
party in New York as any other man Of
that State, repudiated the Chicago Plat
form. and was unwilling that the party
should lose its strength by being identified
with treason and traitors. Wood and his
fellow traitors, discovering that the party
could not be run upon the Virginia and
Kentucky Resolutions of '98, have de-
clared themselves independent, and passed
their ordinance Of secession at a meeting
held at Cooper's Institute on the 25th Of
September. The boilers style themselves
State Rights men, and are no doubt the
nucleus of a party ~inaugurated for the ex-
press purpose Of cooperating with the
disloyalists Of the South. II is a slgni6-
cant, and by nc means unfortunate, move
ment, this separation of the radical ele-
ment Of 1.-THE Democracy" from that part
Of the organization which has tried to
carry loyalty and opposition to the Ad-
ministration upon either shoulder. With
the Democratic party of New York thus
divided, the Republicans have an assu-
n Of comparatively easy successes in
future.-Carson appeal

TIMES N SEASONS.

In the affairs of men there is a tide,
which, taken at the ebb, etc-precisely.
In the recount of seasons none appear so
momentous as the present. We are speak
ing politically. We are speaking to citi-
zens Of Nevada. What is TO be lone for
the Improvement and the guarding OF the
present and through that the establish
mcnt of the future Of our State and GUN
try in the ways of peace and prosperity,
is the act of voting. This duty Of every
citizen is now fraught with Unreasonable
weight of consequence. C~opperheads are
reckoning up their host to a close figure;
calculating each day as to the registration
of Union men. A very slight effort on our
part, as Unionists, willput the Copperheads
in unredeemable back ground. Whatever
spare cash they may have, it is certain
they have not now the men to manipulate
on their rolls. The camp is deserted :
being deserted every day by dozens and
scores of ancient adherents. The hum
bug and lie is exposed too glaringly for
ordinarily sensible men to longer abide In
the organization. Look, to-day! Out
and out secesh rule in the County Con-
vention Of Storey Democracy" States
Rights, that old-rip doctrine of Davis s
Co., is relifted to view and pressed for re-
instatement, at least, as a party creed.
All the abominable things of old are
either spelt nj audaciously, letter by let
ter, or they are suggested and promised in
the word of now as something sure for
the time to come. Scotch the serpent
secesh this Fall, and that's the end of his
squirting in our borders. This is the
season and time to bruise his head with a
Union heel.

INVENTION IN SHIP BUILpISO.-F. Hill
bert, of San Francisco, has invented q
machine for working timber used in ship
building, which, if it accomplishes one
half what is claimed for it, will prove one
of the most important inventions OF the
age. The combination and construction
of he machine are such that it will work
all the variations in shape and level that
may be required on one piece of timber,
aud with the utmost exactness. 1t will
also work in succession different forms Of
timber without changing the combination.
The inventor claims that with this machine
one man can do in a day the work now
requiring twenty-five men to perform.
