Bards and Scotch Reviewers '"a'
fellow feeling makes US wondrous KIND.
Il is with this feeling predominatnS IN
our minds that we approach the subject OF
our notice. which is that OF deceased
mules. Hank Blanchard, whom every
body in Gold Hill knows, lost a valuable
lead mule Yesterday, valued at $3.50. The
body of the animal, in a swollen condi-
ton, Law back Of the News office, unset.
Feuner, also engaged in teaming. lost a
valuable animal in consequence Of the
carelessness Of the driver Of his team, when
opposite the Rhode Island Mill. He took
up brake, at q sharp pitch, and precipita-
ted the wagon upon the wheel-mules,
breaking the legs Of one which caused
his being shot Immediately afterwards.
Rollins, too, engaged in teaming, had a
horse Of much value, but suffering under
some Of the Ills that horse.fsh is heir too.
A man jumped upon a mule TO lead him
around, by way Of exercise. Mule did
not like the occupation, and gave the
horse a kick which broke his leg. The
horse had to be killed of course.
vEoErABLEs.-We looked into L. Mo-
naco's, as we were going to Virginia last
evening, to see what he had in his depart
ment worthy Of notice. Here were to be
found peas, string-beans, cucumbers, sum-
mer squash, cauliaower, onions and po-
tatoes of this years growth, asparagus,
rhubarb plant, celery, artichokes, cabbage,
raddishes and lettuce. We thought this a
pretty good variety, and Monaco is the
man who can wait upon his customers
with as much urbanity as any other man
in town. Besides, WI saw al article Of
fruit there. From the size Of the berries,
we supposed they must be some wild pro-
duction Of the country-name unknown
to US. We inquired the name. Those
are currents, sir" Well, we had picked
and eat currents from our boyhood up,
but those were the largest currents We
ever saw. Goosberries also can be seen
NJ this store. On the whole, We think
Monaco keeps a first rate place in his line
of business. and shall always be pleased
TO notice him. and the articles he has for
sale.
SANIrARY.-The Board Of Health for
the own Of Gold Hill made their first
visi, of inspection on Saturday, June 10th,
and prepared and submitted their report
10 the Board Of Town Trustees. In the
first place they recommended that all
privies in proximity TO dwellings shall be
drsinfected. by either the use Of lime or
copperas. In many places Chat have been
designated in the report) there are depos-
its of rags, bones and offal, which they do
no, deem positively detrimental to the
health Of the town; but if removed, the
appearance OF the town would be greatly
improved thereby. They regretted very
much that in making their report they had
TO represent the hotels, restaurants, board
ing houses. etc., as atfording more delete
rious material than any other places Wis
tied, but hope to ind them, at their next
visit, so much improved as not TO require
any further report. Those that they may
find very presentable, at their next visit,
they can recommend as salutary places for
boarders. Hotel keepers can take a hint
from this, and clean up.
IMPERIAL AND ENTIRE SHArr.-The
shaft being sunk jointly by these two
companies, and the hosting works for
which are so conspicuous an object to all
pedestrians going to Virginia, located as
il is in the ravine beside the old trail, las
now attained TO considerable depth.
They are now down 425 feet. Fifteen
men are employed IN and about the shaft
in legitimate mining, while eight more,
including engineers, etc.. are employed
on the surface. These figures do not in
clude carpenters, q number Of whom are
constantly employed framing timbers for
the shaft. About four and a half fee, IN
depth is attained generally every twenty
four hours (; though the character Of the
rock of course has much TO do with the
progress Of the work. At present, a body
Of yery hard rock has been struck, and the
work Of sinking goes. on rather slowly.
Take it all in all, everything looks we'll
about this shaft.

beautiful bars, weighing 1920 ounces,
