THE EVENING NEWS.

O6bShbH oAANh.-"S uau Tic pteuSuL'
yesterday, in company with the Superin'
tendent. Mr.. Lambert, of inspecting TIT
developments of this mine since our last
visit. made some three months since. In
the first level large amount Of ore has
been mined, and in the second we found
that four prospecting drifts are being driv.
en-, two due east, and one each north and
west, while at the southern portion of the
mine the ledge has been raised on, and re-
Gently fine body of ore has been cut,
that will furnish sixty tons daily for some
time to come. A large force of men will
be put at work on this new vein forth
with, tor though the ore is not as rich as
some found in the other portions OF the
mine, vet the amount in sight that viii
afford n handsome profit for milling Is
large. From the first and second main
levels about twenty tons daily are being
hoisted. Some time since the work OF
sinking was commenced, and the distance
of 425 feet has been attained, at which
depth the timbers for the third level have
already been put in place, but as the
ground is easy, another hundred feet will
be sunk before drifting will be commenced,
when both the third and fourth levels will
be opened simultaneously. Considerable
water has been encountered, bat the excel
lent pump keeps the works clear Of it.
The work of sinking is now progress
sing at the rate of about three feet daily,
and in thirty days from this writing both
the third and fourth levels will be opened,
and we have no doubt but that an i'm
mensely rich ledge will be cut in the first
drifts. \ recent meeting of the stock
holders of the Beleher, Baldwin and Alb
ernathie companies resulted in an agree
ment to consolidate under the style OF the
Belcher Company, and that arrangement
will doubtless be perfected in few days.
The whole condition of the mine is -four
ishing, and we are indebted to Mr.. Lam
bert for much information relative thereto.
We shall visit the Belcher again.
HOSE Co. No. The citizens OF Gold
Hill are wide-awake to the necessity of
full and complete protection against fire.
We have huge and well constructed
reservoir above our town, from whence
iron-pipes of enormous strength and am
pie size are laid through Main street,
nearly to the Sapphire Mill. The invalu-
able aid rendered by Liberty Hose Co.
No. l, at the two late fires, induced our
citizens to form Hose Co. No. 2, and an
election of permanent officers was held on
the 9th inst, with the following results ::
Foreman-A. l.. Colby; First-Assistant
M. sullivan; Second-Assistant-W.
II. Began; Treasurer-J. ]. Hayes !;
Secretary-G. A. Hart; Delegates-A. 5.
Pease, ]. D. Binns and Thos. Carson. A
committee was also appointed to procure
the necessary apparatus, uniforms and
everything necessary for the complete
equipment of the company. The follow
ing are the committee: g. A. Hart, A. l..
Colby and J. ]. Hayes. Messrs. Hart and
Colby at once proceeded to San Francisco
20 make the necessary purchases, and we
learn have succeeded in obtaining the
Hose Carriage formerly belonging to
Washington Hose Co. No. l, of that city;
one thousand feet of double-riveted hose,
sixty-five caps, belts and shirts; every
thing in fact necessary for the complete
equipment of the company. Mr.. Colby
arrived in town this morning from the
Bay, and brought with him the trumpets
and some of the other lighter equipments.
The Carriage and the rest Of the outfit is
coming on the road by fast freight and
will be here this evening or tomorrow
morning. Judge Robinson has generous
" given the boys the use of the hall, ad-
Joining Lees paint shop, in which to place
their apparatus for the present, and they
will then put it together and make ready
for a parade on the Fourth Of July.
FoR THE ForRTH.-Last evening We
CHANGED to call at the palatial dry-goods
establishment of Rosener S Co., opposite
the Office of Wells, Fargo s Co., Virginia,
and were shown some beautiful rosettes of
three different kinds, one bearing in the
center life-i picture of our late be-
loved President, Abraham Lincoln; another
the stern face of the old war-chief, Ulysus
s. Grant; and the third. the noble coun-
tenance of General Sherman, the three
comprising the trinity Of American liberty.
All Associations desiring to obtain a sup
ply of these rosettes, will do wen to give
an early order. While in the place we
were almost bewildered by the profusion
of dry-gOods of all kinds that were piled
in endless feminine c:tractiveness upon
shelf and counter. See their advertise
ment.
OPERA HousE.-Last evening the comic
burlesque of Fro Diavolo was again pre-
sented to a somewhat more comfortable
audience, but not the less enthusiastic.
Tonight is the ladies' night and the ben
eft of that bully engine company, Knick-
erbocker No. ), on which occasion fine
bill will be presented, in which the three
beautiful and versatile sisters, Irene,
Sophie and little Jennie Worrell, will ap-

Isaacs, and the balance Of the star COM
pany. By particular request, every Tues
day and Friday evening will be set apart

A RoUeH Jos.-Our paregorcal friend,
James Root, Esq, of Virginia, has been
selected as chairman of the committee to
prepare q Car of State. Hence it becomes
his duty to raise thirty-six young girls.
He started in last night, but with indifer-
ent success, and this morning he looks
down-hearted, and is unable to attend to
business. he Is using stimulating drinks
and diet, and feels confident of success if
q few boys could be put in the invoice.
We commlserate his condition, and would
suggest Parker as q substitute.
