CLAYTON of Carson, and another gentle
man, were selected as judges. At half

more racing, as a great deal of interest is
being manifested in blooded stock.
PERsoSAL.-Mr. E. B. Wilder, late
Superintendent of the affairs Of the Ophir
Company, left Virginia this morning, for
California. That gentleman has had many
wears experience in Silver mining and had
the Ophir company paid heed TO his sug'
Sestions, we doubt not that at this time
they would have had one of the best mines
in the ComstocS range-but with conceited
assininity, they have insisted upon making
that old tea-kettle pump, do twice the
work it was able to-they killed one man
with leaky and dilapidated boiler, and
st this time have their mine half full of
water, with no means TO exhaust It and
get TO the ledge.

Coaches from Virginia next Monday, for

opportunity to engage passage with large
crowd, so as to be secure from the attack
of any band of Indians. Bob. Lowerey,

furnish full information to any party de-
string to procure passage.
MANUAL ExERcIsE.-We hear many
people complain of pain in the breast,
which is generally caused BY defect Of
the respiratory organs. The best medi-
cines will often fail to remove such COM
plants, but daily exercise at the ten-pln
alley in RSbson's old Saloon, No. SO b
street, will effect sure cure of all COM
plants Of the chest and lungs 60 and
