THE EVENING NEWS.

LARGE AssAYs.-There vas assayed dur
ing the month Of July last passed, at III,
Office Of Conrad Wiegand, in our town
S35l,25 II worth Of bullion. These figure,
c~ei,ainly show that g~entleman's business tc
be in a very healthy state, and, when it is re
membered that the bullion which goes to hi.
office is but a part Of what is produced BY oul
Gold Hill mines, it must also be conceded
that their yield is very Aattering. Many Of oui
mining companies continue to send their bull
hon to Virginia or to San Francisco for assay
and persistently refuse TO patronize our home
Offices; but il is hoped they soon will change
their system Of doing business in this respect,
and pass into. the hands Of our Gold Hill as
sayers the bullion produced by our Gold Hill
mines. Il is but right that they should do
so. San Francisco reaps enough profit from
Washoe mines without doing the work and
transac,ing the business which shouldg 20 into
the hands and under the control Of our citi-
zens-and Virginia city certainly has no as
say Offices superior 20 those of our town. We
would like TO see all the bullion produced
here go into our several Offices for assay, and
thus have home industry encouraged and our
local interests built up. Several mining
companies that formerly sent their bullion
elsewhere for assay, have recently had it as
sayed here in town, with results satisfactory
TO themselves and beneficial to the COM
munity. II the other companies will follow
their example, Gold Hill will soon acquire
the reputation she so richly deserves, OF be-
ing the leading bullion producing town on
the Pacific coat.
A WEDDINo.-on Wednesday evening, at
Gold Hill, E. A. Fargo, of this city, led to
the altar Miss Mollie A. Diamond, Of Gold
hill. About nine o'clock the wedding party
were in waiting in the vestibule Of the church,
which was crowded to overlooking, and i'm
media,ely after the close OF the evenings
services the doors were thrown open and the
party came down the center aisle in the fol-
lowing order Mr.. and Mrs. L. F. O'Farrell,
OF this city, being the first in attendance OIL
,heh Apply pair then followed y. A. II. Ball
of Gold Hill, and Miss Zabriskie Of Silver
City following these came E. A. Fargo anc
Mrs. J. B. Winters then came J. B. Win
tiers with the bride elect upon his arm, Mr..
Winters officiating for the occasion, and
gracefully giving the bride away. Having
arranged themselves in front Of the altar, the
very Impressive marriage services Of the
Episcopal Church we're administered BY the
officiating clergyman, Rev. Mr.. Lathrop.
After the knot was indissolubly tied, the
bride and groom taking the lead, the party
repaired to their carriages aud immediately
returned 70 this city, where they were re-
ceived BY Mrs. Z. E. Eyre, at the residence
Of the bridegroom, where tt sumptuous cola.
ton awaited them, and where they INDUCED
in. the demolition Of the good things Of life,
drinking ,oasts, etc., until 4 late hour, when
the party broke up. And thus another event
in life came and went.-UnIon.
LIVELY TIMEs.-We understand that the
proceedings in the Lyon county Court yes
tsrday, a, Dayton, was decidedly lively and
interesting. The case pending before the
Court was that Of the alleged highway rob-
bers. In the first place the authorities had
taken unusual precautions against u fash in
the pan, and secured a detachment Of U. S.
soldiers to escort the prisoners 10 the Court
room, upon which the defendants attorneys
evinced some indignation, aud forthwith
moved for q change Of venue. The Court
heard this motion argued for a while and
then took q recess. Naich was followed by
uninteresting wordy war between one Of the
lawyers and the Sheriff, resulting in some
blows, for which pleasure they experienced
q handsome fine imposed BY the Court. On
the termination Of the recess, the Court con-
tinued TO hear argument on the motion OF u
change OF venue, until j. adjourned, 10 meet
again to-day.-Enterpriss.
NEARLY COMPLETED. The contractors
have nearly completed the frs, 800 feet Of the
Yellow Jacket COmpany's new shaf,-,hey
now having only about ten feet further to
sink, and about twenty feet more to timber
to finish their job. The shaft so far as COM
pleted, is Of the best character ever con-
structed in this country. We are not in
formed whether the Company have let u con-
tract 10 continue the work, or whether they
intend TO carry on the work henceforward
under the direct supervision OF their own
officers, but we suppose in-whatever way II is
continued il will be driven forward with the
same energy as heretofore. The immense
amount OF rock which this Company have TO
raise, requires increased facilities for hoist
ing, and on account Of the depth they are at
tanning in their mine they will want the use
Of their new shaft for draining purposes as
soon as il can be completed.
New OMNIBUS LlSE-A new omnibus
line, between Gold Hill and Virginia, went
into operation yesterday, under the manage
ment Of Geo. W. Aylsworth. The trips will
be made hourly during the day, and IN extra
trip during the evening will be made, for the
accommodation Of our theatre goers. The
omnibus used is one Of those run on the line
last summer BY Mr.. Crandall. Il has been
newly and comfortably fitted up, and will be
drawn BY four fine horses. The new line, to-
ge,her with the stage Of Mr.. Haigh,, will
furnish ample accommodations 70 travellers
between our town and neighbnring city.
wouLpS'T CARRY DorBLE.-Sunday eve
ming, considerable amusement was furnished
TO persons on Main street, Gold Hill, BY an
attempt Of a couple Of young men to make a
mustang carry double. The second rider
mounted behind the first, in front Of Mont
miny's store, and the two took a most erratic
ride for several rods, and then were dumped
In a heap in the mud and dirt, in front IF the
Vesey House, frum which they emerged with
damaged Sunday clothes, and feeling sore
and cheap. Moral, don't attempt 10 make a
mustang carry double when you have on
your store clothes.
