county seat at present, until the debt was
satisfied. The simple fact Of an individual
travelling once year from Murphys to Mo-
kelumne Hill would be matter of tritiing
moment compared to the additional debt
about being incurred. Self interest is the
first consideration with me. Hence the reas-

county seat question. The game was played
and San Andreas held four aces, securing the
game. What will her $4,000 do towards

a Washoe Meat Market. 1'iot
lhe tact that the meat markets of Washoe
are supplied with better beef, veal and NUT
ton during the dry season than are furnished
IN any of the larger California markets is well
known here, but is matter of wonderinent
to Californians visiting us during summer.
The reason for the fact is that in various val
leys near US the water is sufficiently plenty
for the grass to grow with the greatest luxu-
rance the year round. YesterdayI saw at
the! Center Market, c, street, kept by A.
Strouse, the carcasses of two 'veals,i only six
months, old, which dressed four hundred
pounds each. They were lined with fat. of
course, as were the carcasses of his beeves
and sheep. Californians may luxuriate up
on such meats as the Washoe markets are
affording us every day, some months hence,
after the rams have caused the grass to grow;
but in the. meantime they must live upon
leanness while we are feeding upon the fat of
the land. ' SO sa0fda aa5 a'9f ui
