CONFIDENCE ORE.-Last evening we
visited the Confidence mine, in Gold Hill
proper, and were shown some excellent
ore that was taken from the south part of
the claim. The quartz was literally COW
cred with silver ore, both IN sulphurets
and free metals. \ most peculiar speci-
men was shown US by the foreman, which
was a crystal about one and one halt
inches in length, near the center of which
was embedded bunch of sulphurets.
We never saw a crystal with ore for a
component, and think this rare case.
The company are taking out excellent ore
in large quantities, and the monthly divi-
y dend proves that the Confidence ranks
among our best producing mines. We
shall give a full report relative thereto
next week.
Two WEExs.-In just two weeks from
to-day the drawing of the Grand Gift En-
,erprise of Eaves, Nye 4 Co., will take
place at Maguire's Opera House. When
we say two weeks, we don't mean two
months, for we are authorized to state that
if the drawing does not take place at the
stated time, the proprietors will pay five
dollars for every ticket. Besides, the
tickets are nearly all sold, and not a
ticket will be for sale or rattle on the day
of drawing.

a hotel on the Divide, between this town

the lady's bed, and the steward alone

"BUsrED." According to present in-
dications, the scheme of consolidation has
busted" and not only the people OF

make will not be Endorsed by the tax
