GOLD HILL THEATER.-On next Thurs
DAY evening, there will be a perform
ance at the Theater, by Mrs. Sue Robin
son Getzler and her favorite Dramatic
Troupe. The plays selected are "The
Three Timid Lovers" and "Nan, the
Good-for-Nothing," besides a ~favorite
Ballad by Mrs. Getzler, and a Grand
Overture by the Orchestra. Owing to
the bad roads during nearly the whole
of this winter, hardly any of our Gold
Hill families have been able TO visit any
kind of amusements, either in Virginia
or at home-but an opportunity is now
offered for them to do so, right here.
Most of our people will remember Mrs.
Getzler in times past as the pretty little
Susan Robinson, the most versatile and
pleasing little actress that ever appeared
on the stage in California. But she is
now a woman, is married, has grown
up from childhood among US western
pioneers and settlers, and has not lost
ans - kar y.rae,fv onl ranntDa ta1ant
We expect that Of Thursday evening
the Theater will be crowded with our
familieS, and the company patronized
so that it will be an inducement for it
to give another performance on Friday
evening, with q change Of programme.
The programmes for Thursday evening
will be circulated this evening or to-
morrow.
SINKING Dowy.-The ground over the
mine of the Gould & Curry, since the
snow has commenced to melt, is sinking
down very rapidly. Yesterday, it sunk
some three feet, making a crack in the
earth across C street, ome six inches
wide, breaking of gas-pipes, wster-pipes
and everything else confined in the
ground. While the men were at work
repairing the damages, the ground kept
settling very fast, and the assure which
was but an inch or two wide when first
discovered, soon became a fearful
chasm. These cracks or assures will
let the water down, and it is hard to
tell what the result will be. The frozen
crust on top prevents q person from see
ing the full size Of the assure. For q
long time the ground over this mine has
been gradually sinking down until that
portion OF the street has became mucn
lower than any other part. The water
stands on it and soaks the ground, max
ing it soft, therefore more liable to cave,
unless the ground below is well filled in.
The street, at the present rate OF SINK
ing, will soon be impossible. There are
quite 8 number Of brick buildings on
the ground, which will suffer a great
deal.
Nor Goop.-Yesterday, q man who
was suffering from rhuematism, was sd-
vised to go to Steamboat, and see if it
would not help him. He said: "Ohi
no, il was too much steamboat, what
was tie matter now. I work on te steam
poat and | catch him more; l no wants
any more steampoat." His adviser had
nothing more TO say about recommend
ing the waters of Steamboat Springs to
a man who had been so long on a steam
boat.
The BULLION BLocKADE.-Wells, Far
90 L Co. are using every effort to ship
the bullion accumulated in Storey.
Yesterday and day before they sent
away s,522 pounds, over three tons,
valued at Sl57,9 l4 l6, being the last
batch of Reese River bars. This morn
ing they began sending the bullion
which has accumulated from the reduc-
ton Of ore from the Comstock range.
This will load all the stages for some
days.
Cor CAuGHr.-The man Moony, who
left Gold Hill suddenly, by Overland
stage, and left q number Of persons
whom he owed unpaid, was stopped by
a telegram sent to Austin by Ben
Lackey, who had some of the accounts
placed into his hands for collection and
six hundred dollars were obtained from
him, when he went on his way a poorer
man.
RussELL's HorEL.-We were in at
Russell's new Hotel, Gold Hill, yester-
day, and from what we saw of it, when
completed it will be one of the best
public houses in the State. The large
patent brick range is the finest one OF
the kind put up in the State, and is, we
think, superior to any range we have
ever seen. It is said by those who
board with Russell, that he "knows
how to keep a Hotel"
