Johns.
The Worlds Richmond correspondent
of September 22d, writes: The Protestant
Episcopal Convention, which has just
closed its session at st. Paul's Church in
this city, is another added to the many
powerful connecting ties which time is
gradually spreading around the two late
ly divided sections of the country. The
proceedings, which yon willfind publish
ed in fall in the local papers, are intense
ly interesting, especially the very feel
ing and patriotic address of the Right
Reverend Bishop Johns.
Some exception has been taken to the
action of the committee, in not accord
ing to the bishops proposition of an I'M
mediate reunion of the churches. instead
of laying the matter over to the next
general council of the State, to meet next
year, and merely electing delegates to
the Southern General Convention which
meets at Mobile early in November; but
the spirit of the committees report, as
we'll as the general character of those
composing that body, are the best proof
that they only contemplated--in the de-
lay-to make the matter more sure uu,!
authoritative, and that they fully indotse
all the snoble sentiments that fell from
Bishop Johns. IN short, Virginia may
be said to be pledged, with many Of her
other noble southern sisters, to a re,
union of those Christian and fraternal
bonds, between the churches Of the North
and South, which had been widely torn
asunder by war. No one who witnessed
these proceedings in Richmond could fail
to be highly gratifed With them, and to
consider them one of the strongest guar.
antees which Virginia has yet given oi
her true loyalty and good feeling.

A FooL.--When a fellow attempts to
steal, he should adopt Davy Crockett's
motto of =" Be sure you're right, and then
go ahead" Charley Brooks, of the
Washoe Exchange Billiard Saloon, and
our skeleton self. are possessors of cabi-
net which containeth minerals, old coins,
and such other articles of viru as we
chance to lay hands upon. Charley, IN
fortunately. chews tobacco, fne-cut to-
bacco, solace tobacco, and being of an
economical twist ofmind, saves the "kiver''
Of tinbil. That tin foil was compressed
into a tolerably fair looking bar of bullion,
weighing forty-four ounces. and marked
as of the value of $3.50 81, and as a "thing
of beauty" did decorate our cabinet, and
did shine with rare lustre. Some cuss Of
feathery finger saw and lusted, and Sun
day night broke open the saloon with a
chisel, pryed open the cabinet, and feloni-
ously did steal, take, convert, and transfer
to his own use the tin foil bar of bullion,
worth about one dollar and six bits per
pound. Close by that bar did lie several
old cones of pure metal, but ye thief failed
to take them. We are grateful; and we
assure the dirty cuss that he is, in our
humble opinion, a bigger fool than was
ever "Thompson's colt" 81. o.

THE NEWS.

Notwithstanding the heavy storm of
last night and this morning, the wires
bore up bravely, and we were agreeably
disappointed at the receipt of later Eastern
dispatches. There is no new victory to
chronicle; but the late accounts are con-
6rmed, and there is no reason to doubt
the steady advance of our triumphant
armies. Richmond is becoming untena-
bic, and everything denotes a speedy
evacuation. We are unable to discover
an avenue of escape for the Army of Viz
ginia, or any place where it could main
tain itself il it should escape. The Rich
mond papers are boastful still, and say
that Sherman is marching to his doom.
We can't see il,

OUR HOME GUARDS.

We paid a visit to the armory of the
Gold Hill Home Guards last evening, and
we cannot but express our qualification at
the proficiency which they displayed in
going through the military drill. The
company has just received new uniform.
and last night was the first time the men,
bers appeared in it. As there is TO be
general Jubilee in honor of the late ma
tional victories in the Southern States,
the Home Guards will turn out in their
new uniforms next Saturday, and partici-
pate>in the public demonstrations. After
the exercises of the Guards last evening, a
very pleasant little affair came of, which
is worth mentioning. The Guards re-
solved themselves into Committee Of the
Whole and gave their commander "sdr-
prise" such as is sometimes bestowed
upon preachers. Their captain has not
had any sword. and it was thought about
time that he had; so the company sent
down to San Francisco for .. S. army
regulation sword, which. cost $50 with
belt, sash, ETC., and which was presented
last evening to the captain, V. B. Wilbert.
The presentation speech was made by pri-
vate John q. Mills, in a truly neat, feel
ing, and an eloquent style. The sword
was received in person by Captain Will
bert, who acknowledged the compliment
in q few brief and feeling remarks. The
present is well worthy the Gold Hill Home
Guards. We hope the ladies will, after
seeing the first public appearance OF the
company next Saturday. adopt measures
TO present them with suitable banner.
We make the suggestion, and knowing
the patriotic spirit which governs the Ia
dies, we doubt not our Home Guards will
be agreeably surprised some of these even
ings by seeing delegation of ladies in
their armory.

QUARTZ-TEAMING.

There is perhaps no place in the world
where there is so much heavy teaming go
ing on as in Gold Hill, proportionate to
its population; and unless the elements
prevent it, this kind of labor is carried on
from the beginning to the end of the year
because the numerous quartz-mills
which puff and blow their steam-pipes
from the head of this canon down to
Carson river at Dayton, distance of not
less than six miles, must have quartz-rock,
and they generally have it-be the weather
fair or foul. The wagon loads generally
consist of from three to eight tons; and
as may be supposed, it requires founda-
uon to road or turnpike to keep such
wagons moving. Tie present Winter has
witnessed more hard hauling of ore than
any preceding one; and as it has been an
unusually wet season, our roads have
been at times, and in some localities, in
most deplorable condition. and in any
other section of country most decidedly
discouraging to teamsters. But 1t would
seem as though there was "no such word
as fail" among either the teamsters, the
mill-men, or the miners. Up, early and
late, they present the best example OF in
dustry and untiring energy of any people
we ever saw. But there is such thing
as the bottom of road falling out, or be-
csming so completely chuck-holed and
spongy as not to bear any considerable
weight, however energetic teamsters may
be, or hungry for quartz-food our ndmer-
Gus mills may feel.
The Main street of Gold Hill, from the
rail-t track of the Belcher mine down to the
Piute mill, has been in, what might be
termed a horrible condition all winter
the road consisting OF species Of tough
clay. 4 little better than two weeks ago,
the teamsters and owners of teams made
up their minds that teaming would have
to either stop or a macadamized road
would have to be made. But the idea of
= stopping hauling, and consequently sus-
pending operations in not less than forty
or fifty mills was nonsense, and those who
were most interested were up to the re-
quirements of the emergency. A sub
sciption list was started to raise funds to
construct macadamized pike over the
worst part of the road, distance of half
mile; and about four thousand dollars
was subscribed. Mr.. H. c. Blanchard,
large team owner here. took the contract,
and yesterday completed strip of turn
pike half mile long, fourteen feet wide
and about twenty inches deep, entirely of
rock, gravel and sand. It is the very
thing which we wanted, and everybody
interested seems highly pleased. "When
there is will, there is way" saith the
old proverb; and if Hank Blanchard
never gets all the money subscribed, this
pike will stand lasting monument to his
memory.

latiOns.
The force from Sheridan's army sent in
pursuit of the rebel cavalry who, last
Tuesday, dashed into Cumberland, Mary
land, and captured Generals Cook and
Kelly, returned to Winchester on Thurs
day, having been unsuccessful in rescuing
these officers. The Tribune has the fol-
lowing from the Richmond Enquirer of the
22d: 1.-THE progress Of Sherman through
South Carolina has not met, since the fall
of Columbia, with the slightest resistance
The swiftness of the enemy's movements
and apparent outgeneraling of the Confed-
crate commander, have created very
serious apprehension on the part OF the
public as to the military condition OF that
State. What the purpose and plans Of
Beauregard are we are not able to make
out. His prompt but expected evacuation
of Columbia may indicate very great weak
ness, or it may be the part of very deep
strategy, the success of which will give
back all that was lost"
The rebel newspapers have received ottl'
cial notification to suppress military
news. We are without any later inteill-
gence regarding Sherman's progress In
South Carolina.
Richmond papers can not conceal theil
modification over the capture of Charles
ton and Columbia, and the occupation Of
the latter city by Sherman. They are &C.
knowledged to have been very unexpected
events at Richmond. Serious apprehen-
sions are expressed in reference to the
ability of Beauregard to make any efec-
tive opposition to the northward advance
of the National forces.
The bill to arm negroes, which the rebel
House of Representatives passed on the
both, was indefinitely postponed by the
Senate on the following day.
Rebel journals say that the Union force,
recently reported by them as having NOV
ed from Knoxville, Tenn, towards North
Carolina, consist of between four and five
thousand men, under Gillen.

within our remembrance has been the
scene of so much bitter suffering as the
present Winter. 1t is not only SO in our
immediate vicinity, but one can hardly

reading an account of death BY freezing.
1t has been season of sore affection to

THE LEGISLATIVE 9RERNBAcK
CIRCULAR


In the Virginia Union of this morning,
we find the following circular:
To the People and Press Of the State Of
Nerada:
The undersigned, members of the Senate
and Assembly of the State of Nevada,
would respectfully represent that there are
now pending in the Senate two bills, one
in relation to money of account and inter-
est and to adopt the currency OF the Uni
ted States of America, and the other to
repeal the Specific Contract Act, passed at
the present session of the Legislature.
The bills do not propose to take from the
creditor any existing remedy for the en-
forcement of specific contracts already
made, but all such contracts may be en-
forced under the existing law according to
their tenor. We would further represent
that the passage of the Specific Contract
Act was, in our Judgment, detrimental to
the true interests of the State. From a
thorough review of the condition of our
people and the financial problem not yet
solved on this coast. we are fully satisfied
that change in our circulating medium is
imperatively demanded in order to supply
both the wants of capital and labor. We be-
lieve that such changes would secure to us
the influx of millions of Eastern capital,
now prohibited an entrance into our
State by our present illiberal, restrictive
and unpatriotic policy. Such change,
we are persuaded, would speedily revive
the wasting energies and substance of our
people; infuse new and unwonted vigor
into every department ofindustry ; greatly
reduce the present exhorbitant rates of in
terest, thus rendering certain the con-
struction of a system of internal improve
ments, without which the State cannot
materially advance from its present con-
dition of wealth and population, and last,
though not least, furnish remuneratiye
employment to thousands of laborers at
present uncertain of their daily bread.
Entertaining these sentiments, we are,
however, remindful of the fact that the
passage of Specific Contract Act, with
its attendant prohibition of change of
currency, was made an issue at the last
election, and that upon that issue among
others, we were placed in the positions We
now occupy. We are, therefore, 10th to
take any step involving consequences Of
such grave importance as the passage of
the bills above referred to until we shall
have received some intimation from those
whom we represent, that such action on
our part would meet with their approval.
We therefore most earnestly entreat of you
that with all reasonable diligence you give
to this question that speedy, grave and
candid consideration which its magnitude
demands, and which the present suffering
condition of our people and the rapidly
approaching close of our present session
present as pressing necessity not to be
ignored, and demanding speedy action on
