IxPRoyaxESTs.-Yes,erday we passed
through the lower par, Of Gold Hill for
the frs, time since last spring. We found
considerable improvement had been made
in our absence, the most noted Of which
is the Methodist, Episcopal Church, which
is being finished up at the present time.
1, is built on Main street. just opposite
the old office Of the SEws. Altogether 1t
is a very tasty piece Of architecture. and
will doubtless be large enough TO accom-
modate as many ~ may attend. Within
some sixty feet Of the Methodist Church
the Catholics are %excayating for the pur-
pose Of erecting a church. This will make
three churches in Gold Hill. This GER
tainly speaks well for the morals OF the
place. We also noticed that the new
hosting works Of the Ken,uck mine were
fast approaching completion. The build
ing 10 already enclosed, the roof on and
the cupola is being finished up. We no.
ticed in several other places in the lower
par, Of town that building was going on,
and preparations were being made for
erecting houses. Il has become = fixed
fact that the mines Of Gold Hill will last
for many years.: consequently people are
making preparations for staying here.
SOMETHING Nxw.-Yes,srdsy we were
shown the model for a new style OF whim.
The inventor is q Mr.. Mcdonald, OF Gold
Hill, and Mr.. G. HAST, Of Virginia. is
making = drawing Of it. A patent, we
understand, has been applied for. The
principal improvement is. that instead OF
the boom being stationary il is an extern
sion arrangement. and may be heightened
20 double its ordinary length for the use
OF q windlsss-,he boom being double
when in the ordinary position. but by
means of the windlass one-half OF the
boom slides forward in grooves and may
be adapted to work in any part OF a deep
Dit. The bucket used is like . large scoop
and is so arranged that it does its "
dumping. When the bucket m up it
strikes q spring. and At once it tips up on
end discharging its contents into q dump
or car, a. the case may be. IL Is an inge-
niou, continuance. and may prove OF great
service.
PUBLIC SrrAXIxo.-Messrs. Bishop and
Ferguson will address the citizens Of Sill
YER City this evening, IN the political is
sues Of the day. Let all the SilvSri,es DO
on hand and 60 through the drill, as the
battle is near q, hand. Marshal your
hosts and be ready for the conflict, and
Strike till the last armed foe expires;
Strike for your affairs and your hres:
Strike for the green graves OF your 'lres-
God, and your native landF'

Marx TwAIS.-Who has not heard Of
Mark Twain, for some years a resident OF
,hi. State, and who has contributed large
ly 70 the amusement Of our citizens by his
peculiar and eccentric letters: Mark, for
some time past; has been sojourning among
the Kanakas, and is once more on the old
stamping ground. On Wednesday even
ing he proposes 10 give a lecture on what
he saw while in the Sandwich Islands.
The lecture will evidently be very anus
ing, aud well worth hearing, as Mark has
few equals as a humoriss any place.
Mix McCLu.KBr.-For a long time
pa,, i, has been whispered around that
there was a certain place in Gold Hill
whore beverages were mixed that would
cool a man off in hot weather. and warm
him I'D in cold. We are satisfied we have
found, il. Mike McCluskey is the man
and we were informed by him that he
makes a drink called Reporters drink
and refers to Mark Twain as authority for
their recommendation. Mike can always
be found in Theater Hall. west side OF
Main street, Gold Hill. Give him a call

clan Of Gold Hill, and 4 citizen OF long
