ANOTHER PAYING MINE.

The irrepressible Bob Apple. about six
weeks ago. took it into his head that the
Alpha mine, in Gold Hill, had better be
developed; that q mine was no account
unless it yielded up its treasure-in which
we agreed with him at the time. He ac-
eordingly put in some of his best licks-
although . few weakened stockholders
protested (they being a little on the
"freeze-ous order.) But Mr.. Apple has
seen TOO much of this world and our
mines to feel in the least non-plussed.
and broke down the barriers, bars and
locks Of the ho,sting-works, and expend-
ing lot Of his own money in purchasing
wood. labor, and other necessaries, he
ired up the works, and the Alpha mine,
as if it had been smote with a magic wand,
has opened its vaults Of treasure. and we
yesterday saw the first silver bricks from
it. About sixty tons Of ore had been sent
to Harrington s Beach's mill, back of
Carson City. which yielded the handsome
sum of S4,06s 90, an average of $s7 so
per ton. This ore was taken from the
upper level of the mine, which is only $50
feet from the surface. We are informed
that there is any quantity Of this class Of
rock in this level. Bully for the Alpha /!

PFeIsTER YOUR NAMES!

A, ,he late election in Virginia, we
heard more cursing and swearing because
certain men who knew what was required
Of them, and yet who failed to comply
with the terms of q just law. were not
permitted to vote at the city election.
They said they were Cinnamon. We adj
mi, il. Said they were worse than ne
sroes. We won't dispute that. Said it
was not fair. That's the point-it Is
fair. Every man should pay hi, poll-tax
it Is righs-it is duty he owes the
country. If he won't pay he should not
be permitted to exercise the right Of suf-
frage. Now then, any person in Storey
county who has failed to pay his four dol
lars and register his name, will have an
opportunity to do so during the entire
week, and by calling at the Court House.
on b street, Virginia, he will find the
Board in session, prepared to receive and
receipt for a persons privilege to vote.
So let no man in the coming election
growl at being denied chance to vote,
for now the opportunity is granted them
to come up and pungle.

ANCIENT MINES. - The Atlantic
Monthly for March refreshes its readers to
the well known fact that the old mines
have been opened in the copper districts
of Lake Superior over which trees Ave
hundred years old have grown. When
the debris was cleared away, the cavities
were found full Of grooved and handled
stone hammers, and in one instance, q
leather bag for carrying ore, which has
been identified as part of wRlrus skin.
Those ancient mines are very extensive,
showing that many tons of copper must
have been taken out and carried away
whittier is all conjecture, and by whom
quite as much a mystery. The only thing
that appears to be well established in the
premises is, that' the miners were not Of
the present race Of American Indians, but
Of some more civilized people. who pre-.
eeeded the Indians and migrated to the
south-perhaps the mound builders of
the Mississippi and Ohio, or the pyramid
builders Of Mexico. The copper mines Of
Superior were probably worked at the
time Solomon sent his ships to California
for gold and raked the coasts Of South
America for apes and peacockS.

Destructive FIRE AT JoHNrowN.-A,
one o'clock P. NJ. yesterday, a large board
ing house, with barns, sheds, etc.. attach
ed, belonging to Messrs. Blanchard & Leet,
near the Nevada Foundry, at Johntown,
was totally destroyed by FIRE. together
with about $4,000 pounds of barley. Loss
about $4,000; no insurance. This is
supposed to have been the work Of an
incendiary, as barn in Dayton, belonging
to the same parties, was discovered to be
on FIRE at II o'clock the night before.
About one hundred and twenty head Of
stock was generally kept at this establish
ment, but it was all out at the time, and
therefore none was lost.
Mr.. Blanchard informs Us that the
above account of the fires is quite errone-
Gus. He says that both fires were purely
accidental and their causes perfectly well
known to themselves and their employees.
The ire at Johntown caught from the Ne
vada Foundry close adjoining; and that
At Dayton was caused BY the carelessness
of one of their own men. Their loss does
not exceed $4,000, exclusive Of lot Of
aecumu' ated rubbish of considerable vol
ume but OF no cash value.

REACTION IN ENGLISH SENTIMENT
The proposition to place Canada in po.

was debated in the British Parliament on
the 18th ult., as announced in the Euro.
pean news published yesterday, ESPECIALLY
important, for the reason that It was con-
Quoted by the leading members Of Parlia-
ment and goes to show the wonderful re.
action that has lately occurred in English
sentiment, with regard to the war in this
country. The glaring evidence Of sym.
pathy with the South, which marked
former Parliamentary debates, has disap.
peared, and tone Of friendship and good
feeling pervades every speech. This is all
very well. so far as the English Govern
ment is concerned. but whether it will be
sufficient recompense for the neutrality
which sent the Alabama and its sister
pirates to burn and destroy our commerce
together with few other items Of like
nature, will probably appear hereafter

FRIDAY, AUGUST IS, 1856.
General George w. Morgan.

This gentleman received the unanimous
nomination Of the Democratic State Con-
vention which assembled yesterday, in
Columbus, for the Governorship of Ohio
A better nomination, in view Of all the
circumstances which surround us, could
not have beou made. General Morgan is
vet a young man, but has been placed in
various positions of important trust. He
is one among the few General officers OF
the recent war, who has preserved intact
his democratic principles, and who has
adhered, throughout, to the spirit aud
sentiment Of the celebrated Crittenden
Resolution, which defined, at the com
mencement of the contest, the true and
legitimate purpose for which it should be
waged. BE has given his hearty endorse
ment, without equivocation, TO the prin-
ciples ennunciated in the excellent plat
from adopted by the Convention, and
which may be pointed to with just pride
az the time-honored creed of time
honored party. In that platform, and in
General Morgan's approval of it, there is
no "paltering in a double sense. !" The
people can all understand precisely where
General Morgan and the Democracy stand
in this political contest We are OPP
posed to negro suffrage-in favor OF the
immediate restoration Of the States to the
exercise of their Constitutional functions
in the Union--iu favor of the taxation OF
United States bonds-sgsinst negro sui-
frsge and pauperism in Ohio, and in favor
Of the repeal of the odious military tax
to keep up a useless and expensive military
organisation among us. .-......
The nomination Of Mr.. Lang for Lieu
tenant Governor will be received by our
large and respectable German population
with peculiar pleasure. He is an accom-
plished gentleman and Democrat, whose
fidelity is beyond reproach. The balance
of the ticket is composed Of gentlemen in
every respect worthy and qualified fol
their respective positions. We shall have
more to say of them hereafter.
