MACHINERY FOR SALE. The coming Spring
will see large number of quartz mills erect
ed on the various lodges in this vicinity, and
parties contemplating building are already
making inquiries in regard to the best man
ner of obtaining machinery. A fine oppor-
tunity to procure a first class engine, battery
OF ten stamps, pumps, ETC., all in excellent
condition, and ready to be put right to work,
is offered by the American Shaft Company
in Chill Gulch. Having worked out their
claim they offer their machinery for sale on
the most advantageous terms. The whole
will be sold in lot together, or the engine
and battery will be disposed of separately, to
suit the convenience of purchasers. Parties
IN search of machinery will consult their in
terests by examining this before purchasing
elsewhere. For terms, inquire of A. w.
Holbrook, agent, at the United States sa-
loon.
THREE or four charming young ladies,
God bless them, irradiated our office with

have them call is but feeble expression of the
genuine pleasure which their kindness and
condeseenslon in paying US visit afforded
us. Though their stay was brief, it proved
that the printers are not entirely forgotten
even by the far sex, and after they departed
we returned to our dreary, monotonous, ev
erlasting labor at the case with a lighter
heart and more pleasant thoughts than W,
have experienced for many day. Ladies
the greatest boon we can ask for you is, tha
you may always be as happy as your visi

amount was raised by donation, thus saving
the Trustees the trouble of resorting to a

Miscellany.
Couldn,t get the Right Flop,


In the year 1s43, during the Miller excite
ment in the usually quiet town Of Durham,
old Amt Sally H." who would :" weigh nigh
on to 200 pounds" got all ready to 8 go up,'
and one evening in meeting, in the midst OF a
warm season OF exhortatlon, sue arose and
said" Oh, brethren and sisters, bless the
? Lord! I'll soon get away from this wicked
world; I'm going to meet the Lord in few
days. My faith is powerful strong! Oh, yes,
powerful strong it is! So strong,' continued
the old lady, extending her arms and motion
ing them like goose on the wing, " that it
does seem as i'll could fly right away now
and meet the Lord in the air." -
The minister, who was as great an enthusi-
asst on "going up" as the old lady, encouraged
her by exclaiming, Try, sister, try! Perhaps
you can fly, If your faith is only strong
enough well cam" she exclaimed, /
knoto can and WILL"
She was standing near a window which
was raised because of the oppressive heat-tor
it was summer. With her hankerchiefin one
hand and her fan in the other, she mounted
the seat, and thence to the top of the pew
and gave a leap into the air with flying mo-
tion of her arms, expecting to asce nd heaven
ward. But the law of gravitation was too
much for both her faith and the grauitg of
the audience. Down she came with an enor-
nous and no very angelic grunt, shaking the
whole house with the conclusion. -
She arose, folded her wings, and with great
meekness sneaked back into her seat and
went to weaving back and forth, evidently
disappointed. The next evening some of the
young folks asked her:
"Aunt Sally, why didn't you fly last night
when you tried so hard ?n -. &
, =" 1 couldn't get the right flop on was the
meek and conclusive reply.

Men say the sullen instrument
That from the Masters bow,

Feels music's soul through every fibre sent,
whispers the ravished strings
More than he knew or meant
Old summers in its memory glow;
The secrets of the wind it sings;
1t hears the April-loosened springs,
And mixes with its mood
All it learned when it stood
In the murmurous pine-wood
Long ago! n#a-ir#.
The magical moonlight then
STEPPED every bougirand cone;
The roar of the brook in every glen
Came dim from the distance Dlowh,
The wind through its glooms sang low,
And itswayed to and fro, H
Full of dreams, as IL stood
In the wonderful wood
Long ago!

That only said live and rejoice?
That asked not for causes and reasons,
But made us all feeling and voice?
When we went with the winds in their blow
ing, 's"
When nature and we were peers.
And our days seemed TO share in the flowing
OF the inexhaustible years?
Have we not from the earth drawn iuices
Too fine for earth's sordid uses? h

All i feel and know? q
Doth my heart overween? IFEtt
