The Board then adjourned until next
Wednesday evening, January Sd.
MrsIc HALL.-A large audience. last
evening. witnessed the reproduction Of "A
Glimpse at Virginia" 1t is a roaring,
side-spli,ting burlesque, and every char
acter is we'll taken. Johnny TuerS as
Amanda is particularly comical. Harry
Cour,aine, as 81. D. Mayo" is true to
the original; but his "Col. Crawlins is
a trifie too active. Miss Amanda Lee de-
serves great credit for her representation
Of "Chsrley O'Brien." It is an exceed
,ngly difficult i~mpersonation for an actress,
but she acts it to perfection. It will be
repeated tonight. Tomorrow evening,
a complimentary benefit, rendered by the
company to Max Walter, will be given.
WEsroN's MILLs.-In many localities,
on Christmas day, presents and tessimoni-
uls were all the go-(we received a pitcher
of esg-nogg for ours from Harry Claw
son.) But at Weston's Mills, down the
canon, below Johntown, the workmen,
not to be outdonc, presented their Fore
man, and part owner Of the mills, Mr. 5.
Schleweck, with a most beautiful silver
mounted and costly meerschaum pipe, as
a testimonial of their good wishes for him.
Mr.. Schleweck is a great eonnoisetT in the
genuine Turkish weed Of which his
friends were fully aware, and hence they
chose a fine pipe as being the most &C
ceptable present for Christmas.
SAD ACCIDENTAL miner, named Geo.
Estay, was injured in the upper Chollar
shaft, formerly known as the Boston
shaft, this forenoon. He was crossing
from one compartment into another ana
the car ascending rapidly from below
caught his right arm before he could get
il out of the way, horribly manghng 1t
and rendering amputation necessary. DIR.
Bryarly was called and performed the OPP
GRAFTON. Mr.. Estay was formerly . resi-
dent Of Amador county, CAL, and has a
wife and six children.
DISTRESSING ACCIDENT. Yesterday
afternoon Mr.. Louis Morris, who drives
An express wagon, met with a painful &C
cident. He had driven his wagon IN
from. of Cune s Co.'S auction store, und
in alighting he struck upon an icy spot
and fell heavily to the ground, fracturing
the knee-pan and breaking of some Of the
,endons above. DR.. Bryarly was called
TO attend him.
ESCAPED CoSvIcrs.-But one OF the tu-
Qitives from the penitentiary have been
caught. Tom George was discovered and
arrested by Mr.. Mark Barnhers day be-
fore Yesterday. Dade (who escaped once
before, last winter), Shamer (who robbed
old man Martin. at the dollhouse, on the
Clear Creek road), Donnelly and Cooley
are still at large.
TAX SALES. - Yesterday, pursuant to
advertisement, there was considerable
property sold for delinquent taxes. What
makes these sales so important, is the fact
that in pursuance of a Law enacted in
1864, there is no redemption. This is
contrary to what i, is IN other States, and
many a property holder will doubtless ere
this ind himself ousted from the posses
sion Of his estate.
The shawl which is to be rallied of on
New Years day, by Rosener & Bro.' is
now Cd exhibition in Spalding's saloon,
Virginia. 1t is a magnificent eamefs hair,
and valued at $500. The chances are
thirty. at ten dollars each. So. by invest
ing ten dollars, you render yourself liable
to win a present for your sweetheart or
wife which q Queen might well be proud
TO receive.
ONLY A CpHBR-but it makes a great
difference! The compositor made US say in
the late Ere report. that Martin Whites
loss was $500. I, should have read,
49, 900. Also, in yesterdays issue, it ap-
peared that Schwartz s Green were re-
leased on giving bail Of $500, when 1t
should have read $4,000.

largest run was six. The game was won
with ease by Wright.
The WRArHER.-rhe day is delightful.
The snow is fast disappearing from the
streets, yet here and there Jack Frost will
still hold out, mixing it in those places
exceedingly dangerous for travel. The
streets are in a very bad condition, par
ticularly in Gold Hill. The teamsters are
experiencing very rough times.
