Mineral Discoveries In Central Nc
vnda.

Nuo1s
From the Nevada (Cal.) Gazette, Oct. l7th.l
The hardy prospectors of Central Ne
vsda have carried on their explorations
with unusual vigor the past season, and a
number Of new lodges have been discov-
cred, which, from present indications, bid
fair to eclipse the Comstock. The most
important of the new districts, or at least
the best known, are the South Bend
known also as the Philadelphia) and tho
Hot Creek. The former district 10 eighty
five miles southeast Of Austin, the belt 10
Of slate, not over half a mile in width,
and contains only two or three main lodes.
The principal Of these is tho High Bridge
mine, which was discovered in May last.
In three months after its discovery, David
Z. Buell., who had purchased an interest.
had rsmovsd q ten stamp mill from Aus
tin, got it in operation, and returned with
several thousand dollars in bullion. Al
though he has not the facilities for work.
ing the ore closer than fifty per cent Of
the FIRE assay, the mill 10 yielding bullion
at the rate OF nearly q thousand dollars q
day. We were converting q few days ago
with q gentleman who had examined the
High Bridge mine. and who expressed tho
opinihn that it carries the heaviest body
Of rich ore ever discovered, A cut made
across the ledge at o depth Of about forty
feet exposed a body Of ore over twenty
feet wide. which yields by ordinary mill
process about 5000 a ton. The Hot Creek
district is situated some thirty miles be-
You'd Silver Bend, and the belt is also Of
slate and capped with limestone. A num-
Der Of lodges have been found in this dis
trict which, beyond a doubt, are Of i'm
menss value. Among these 10 the Indian
Jim ledge, which crops out at least a hun
dred feet in hight, thirty or forty in width,
and is estimated to contain two or three
hundred thousand tons Of orc above the
ground, that will yield largely BY mill
process. There 10 an immense region Of
country in central Nevada yet to be sx-
plored, and without doubt containing
mines Of untold wealth; but the work OF
development must be slow, on account Of
the barrenness Of the country and the great
distance which supplies and machinery
have to be transported.

Strange Career Of IA Woman OF
Fashion.

A New York correspondent of the ROch-
ester Union says:
A curious finale to the career of very
fast, and not very prudent, fine lady in
PARIS, was mentioned the other day by a
lady recently from that metropolis OF
worldly enjoyment. Mrs. NJ had run
through "all that was gay and new" in
New York. and in Paris had given our late
minister, Mr.. Dayton, not liCtle trouble
by frequent applications tor pecuniary aid.
Changing her lodgings she found in a
bureau drawer of her new residence some
shares in stock high in value. She prob
ably knew of the existence ofa law in Paris
making it penal offence, punishable with
imprisonment or the galleys, to use any
thing found, not having delivered it to the
police that the owner might be discovered.
Mrs. NJ -unscrupulously negotiated the
shares, realizing 10000 frances. This sum
supplied her eXJravagant wants Tor four
months, and was spent in dinners, drives
and gayety general. The beautiful queen
of pleasure procured also many new dress
es and some jewelry. The money was ex-
hausted. when the loser of the stock by ac-
cident discovered who had negotiated the
shares. He demanded reimbursement; the
lady denied all knowledge of the transac-
ton. But the fraud was proved; she was
tried and sentenced to st. LaZare for six
months. Her beautiful hair was shaven,
and she was put to hard work, her delicate
hands having never before condescended
to do more than to flirt a fan. Even in the
coarse convict's dress and ugly cap, her
beauty was undeniabe, and, set off by a
native coquetry had its wonted magical in
fluence on the officials from whom she won
many indulgences denied to other prion-
ers. Many Americans in Paris visited her
from curiosity while 'in durance vile.'
She served her time out, aud is now per-
haps again enSaving hearts by the power
of her unTivalled charms. She was quite
celebrated some years since in Philadel-
phia, where she resided most of her mar
ried life afterwards she lived in New York
outdoing even the fastest danes, and daz-
zling many admirers.
