For IDAHO AND OwYKEB. - On or
about the tenth of April, Hill Beachy,
Esq, will leave Virginia for the above
named places via Ruby City, with a large
stock of horses and coaches. We learn
that already o number Of our moving
pitchers have engaged passage, and as soon
as the train is filed it will leave for the
new FL Dorado. The rush 20 the north
ern country is said TO be unparalleled, and
next fall the rush back to Nevada and
California will be greater. Our pros
perity has been practically demonstrated.
Theirs is Of a very speculative character,
10 say the least.
Work OF ARr.-At the International is
on exhibition a miniature church, con-
structed by {. Miller, whose architectural
skill this work well proves. The outside
of the edifce is crystalized, and shines
with peculiar lus;eE. The inside repre-
sents a priest saying mass, attended by
chorlster boys; it IS also adorned with
numerous pictures generally seen in
Catholic Church, which it represents. The
style is Gothic. BY attached mechanism
the bell ringer is made to perform his
function, which, together with all other
representations, gives the church. life
like appearance.
SPoRrING.-On Saturday evening the
fourth weekly deposit for the fight be-
tween Foy and keheier, was deposited.
The fight will take place April fourth, at
some place astride of Storey county. Foy
is in excellent trim, and his numerous
friends are confident that he will win the
battle. He is to fight at one hundred and
forty-eight pounds, and by training has re-
duced himself TO one hundred and forty
three lbs. The fight will be a close one,
and will doubtless give each man a chance
TO get pounded 70 Jelly.

recently struck in the Rock Island Claim
is Of very promising quality of silver
bearing quartz, and that it is the intention
OF the Company to at once sink large
shaft on the ledge to the depth of five
hundred feet. The demonstrated fact that
there is a rich ledge in that vicinity would
give TO mining in American Flat fresh
impetus, and start 10 activity large
number of claims now lying unworked
and unprospected. Undoubtedly this
proof will soon be shown in the Rock
Island.
