THE EVENING NEWS.

YELLOW JACKET MlNI.-Ne ven
down into the south shaft Of this m'ne'
this morning. The west drift Is now
nearly four hundred feet long and 'or the
las, twenty-five feet excavated IN a tre-
mendous ledge of rich ore. The further
the workmen 20 in, the richer the rock 10
oe,,;n, We saw large boulders, thrown
out nv blasts. which were literally COW
cred with the rich black silver sulphurets
and chl,rides. The chamber where the
workmen are now operating is entirely
within the ledge. and is about twenty-five
feet long, fifteen high, and thirty wide,
and affords room enough for about q
dozen workmen, whose drills, sledge-
hammers, picks and shovels keep up a
lively music-of its kind. Lots of pay
ore is being taken out, and judging from
what we saw this morning. the stock
holders OF the Yellow Jacket certainly
have reason to feel encouraged.
BENEFIT FOR THE Pubic SCHOOL LII
BRARY.-rhe Amateurs will appear for
the second time. at Maguire's Opera
House. Virginia, on Saturday evening
next. Slst inst, for the benefit Of the Pub
lie School Library. There will be many
exercises not in their frs, appearance. y
very important feature OF the entertain
ment will be the exercises of the school
children. among which will be declama-
ton. dialogues. songs. tableauS and Gales.
themes, l, will be one OF the most inte-
resting entertainments ever given AZ the
Opera House. Independent Of the COM
mand:nc claims Of the School Library, the
exercises Of themselves could not fail to
draw a full house. but when coupled with
an institution so important, and useful as
a Public School Library, we think that
the house will be densely crowded. and
advise our friends not to delay TO procure
tickets to the las, day, when it shall be
TOO late TO get admi,tance.
