THE EVENING NEWS.
Rather ANCIENT PApERs.-we were

RATHER ANCIENT PAPERs.-We were
shown to-day, by Dan. Hurdley, OF Vir-
GINA, copies of the vicksburg (Miss,,)
Sentinel, OF dates June sth, ls+S, and
November 18th, 1871. Though not so
psry old, their appearance is decidedly
venerable, and the advertisements, AT
least, carry US back M age. The Sen
tinei of Nov. is, Al, contains a couple
Of slave advertisements, n Of which,
we quote: $500 reward, for a cop
per eolored boy named JOHN, about %
years Of age, rather well formed for a
negro, will weigh about leo pounds,
looks down when spoken to, has the
mark of the lash on his back, and prob
ably some ofthe scars are not yet healed,
he is a great rogue and perfect villain,
he is an excellent house servant, and he
may probably be about some of the
hotels. Signed, Thomas V. Davis,
Geo. W. Gaut, Lake Providence, Louis
lana" Thank God, such barbarous
proclanations appear in this land no
more. The Sentinel for June sth '+S, is
in mourning for DR.. James Hagau, its
late editor and proprietor, who was as
ss~ssinated BY D. ". Adams. Any one
curious to see these venerable relics can
have a tree sight at EN-, on calling at
The News office.
SUICIDE Yesterday evening, between
6 and ! o'clock, Il Freedman whose
name is L. de L~abrousse, committed
suicide by taking oil of bitter almonds,
a poison almost equally as active IN It's
effects as prussic acid. He, with his
wife. lived on D street, a few doors north
Of Union street, and.ss yet we have
heard no very good reason for the rash
act. Some assert that Jealousy caused
him to take the dose, others that It WAS
encouragement in regard to business
affairs. Formerly he was engaged in
hunting on the Truckee, bringing his
game to Virginia city, but of late he has
been in the fruit and vegetable business.
Is H POPE A SAMsoS?-A "uou-be-
lever in dispatches" writes as follows;
~ had supposed Pho Mono to be al old
man, aud rather weakly but If he can
lii, a silver model of = yacht large
enough 70 contain $50, 900 in gold coin,
and elevate the money also, he must be
unusually strong, and would prove that
age does not always reduce strength.
Allow the model OF silver TO weigh so
pounds. $50, 900 TO weigh not less than
26O pounds, we have $40 pounds, which
His Holiness lifted-probaoly ut arms
length, without purchase or strap.
ARRrvEp.-Sena,or Stewart, one OF
Nsvada's delegation 10 the Federal Con-
g-ess, passed through Gold Hill to-day,
in the Pioneer stage from Carson. He
crossed the mountains rather suddenly,
we should judge, as we have seen his
name announced in several California
papers 10 speak at Union meetings al
most every evening this week. Stewart
is uuquali6eGly in favor OF the Union
party in California-so announced by
the consistent Union press OF that State.
MArRIMoSIAL.-A worthy gentleman
Of our acquaintance, who has got tired
OF u bachelors life, iuteads leading u
modest young widow TO the Hymeneal
altar, this evening. between Gold Hill
aud Virginia ci,y-uot far from the
junction of Main street and the Birdsall
turnpike. The lady does we'll in select
ing so excellent q man as her second
husband as we know our friend Chips
10 be.
