VERY CoLD. = It is surprising what
changes we experience over here in the
weather. For a long time nothing has
been settled. Snow, rain, sunshine-all
take place within a short period OF each
other. and as for cold. we have been shir-
ering with it for the last three days. On
stepping out this morning, we found the
ground quite hard with frost. Stoves are
in good request, in consequence OF TINS
weather, and many a laugh has been in
dulged in at the expense OF the uniortu-
nate Z" hombres," who, having dispensed
with the article, as they thought, for the
season. had to go to the trouble Of repla-
cling the same, that they might give their
friends a warm greeting.
QUESTIONABLE KNOWLEDGE. - Some
men pride themselves upon their knowl-
edge of human nature, when that knowl-
edge consists of nothing more than an
expertness in detecting flaws or defects in
the character of their n~eighbors. II never
rises 10 anything higher. The possession
of excellent and enobling characteristics
in any one they canno, comprehend and
therefore never appreciate. These thoughts
were suggested by a conversation heard
last evening, wherein reflections were
passed upon persons, who, in our opinion,
were not entitled 20 these Siimy notices.
Better cultivate more elevating tastes.
STRAWBERRY FEsrIvAL.-This festival
for the benefit Of our Methodist friends in
Virginia, had a good start given it last
evening at Armory Hall, B street. Not
withstanding the inclemency OF the wealth
er and the muddy condition Of the streets,
a large attendance was present. Every
one acquainted with these festivals, knows
that they increase in interest as they con-
tinue. and a truly pleasant time may be
anticipated this evening. We hope the
affair will be well p~atronized.
ExcELsIoR.-Quite q number Of our
citizens are starting for this district. From
the experience afforded in mining here in
Nevada, we really do not think any one
justified in leaving a regular. paying bust
ness OF any kind, for the uncertainties OF
striking something rich either in Excel
sior, or anywhere else. Better be content
with a sure thing than run risks aknowl-
edge Of which the future keeps a very
closed book.
Man KrLLgD.-Just as were going 70
press, we learned that u sad accident oc-
CURED to a man working in the Overman
mine, by falling down the shaft n distance
of 800 feet, causing instant death. The
name Of the man we had not time TO as
certain, he being a stranger to most about
the mine. The man was at work on the
pump. P. S.-Since putting the toreSo-
ing IN type, we have ascertained the name
Of the deceased 10 have been BLY,, and an
elderly person.
PrsLIc MgErISG.-By O notice in an
other column, i, will be seen that a pub
lie meeting is TO be held on Saturday,
evening (to-morrow), at Judge Halls
Office in Gold Hill, TO place in nomins-
lion another ticket for Trustees for the

beginning TO become quite lively.
PsoeRgssIxe.-The surveyors on the
