past, and the great issues OF the nation are
settled, aud settled on a basis that lnsures
safety TO the country and property, bust
ness is once more starting along with more
frmness than for a long time past. Min
ing stocks are gradually on the rise. All
the mills from the mouth Of Six-Mils
Canon to Wsshoe. and from WaShoe to
the extreme limits Of Ormsby and Lyon
counties, are all employed. The old worn
on, mills are being rebuilt. and the capac-
ity of many Of our 6rst-class mills are
being increased. Every day we see large
wagons loaded with mill machinery on
our streets, while all the teams in the
whole country find constant employment
IN hauling quartz. Hundreds Of miners
who have been in outside districts during
the summer, have, within the past month,
returned TO this county, and all who de-
sired it have found employment at good
wages. In short, we do not hesitate to
say that times are more prosperous at the
present time in the State Of Nevada than
they have been since 1868.
STOPPED ON THE DIvIpE..-LSss night,
shor, time after IL o'clock, a. Thomas
Conroy was going over the Divide from
Gold Hill to Virginia. and when half way
between the Montreal Saloon and Star
Stable, he saw a man coming toward him,
he being in the center OF the road. When
the robber go, within fifteen feet Of him he
ordered Couroy TO stop and hold up his
hands. Tom tried to make him under
stand that he was not the man he was
looking for. Finally ne made the discov-
cry who he had stopped. and at once told
Tom 10 90 on, as he was not the man he
wished TO see. Tom says that his hat
stood on the very points Of his hair. As
soon a. he arrived at the Star Stable he
called tor assistance, but those on the in
side tearing he wa. a foos-pad, refused to
let him in. Tom says it may be fun 10 be
stopped. but he don't see it.
HARD TO SPLIr.-To-day we went into
the back room of the assay office Of Van
Wick & Sanchez. Of this town, where We
found Mr.. Van Wyck with a huge sledge
and two steel wedges hard a. work split
ing up bullion logs. The materials on
which he was at work were round bars,
or chunks of crude bullion. eight or ten
inches in diameter and fifteen inches IN
length. We do not remember OF ever
having seen anything more cross-grRined
than the specimens on which he was ope-
rating. No one can form any kind OF an
idea OF the yastness Of mineral produc-
tons until they visit one Of our large assay
establishments.

may they have Shields on all sides Of them.
