LocA1 TA,rxr.-Tbi, evening, Mrs.

Local TALsxr.-This evening, Mrs.
Harry Jackson will take q benefit at
Piper's Opera House, aud on which
occasion will appear some local talent
from Gold Hill-in the person Of q tai
ented but modest young dramatist,
known as Mr.. J. Murray, who will take
the part of Jock Howiescn, in the Scotch
farce OF Gramond Brig" Mr.. Murray
is not al actor by profession, but only
by taste, talent, aud occasional desire ;
and will be pleasantly remembered BY
many Of our Gold Hill people AS occa-
sionslly volunteering upon the boards
when he wishes to foster or encourage
a laudable and meritorious enterprise,
or to benefit q friend. Mr.. Murray is
lucratively engaged in n of our iron
f%oundries, in the mechanic arts and on
this occasion has yielded to the earnest
solicitations Of friends to contribute his
services for the benefit of a most worthy
lady actress, Mrs. Harry Jackson. As
the Omnibusses will return from the
sheater TO Gold Hill after the perform
ances are over, quite q large number OF
ladies and gentlemen intend being pres
ent this evening.
MrLrrARY.-We understand that Cen
erals Van Bokkelen and Winters, with
their respective stats, and military COM
panies under their control, will visit
Gold Hill some time during the after
noon on the Fourth. By an oversight
on the par, of the Grand Marshal, in
the published programme yesterday,
they were not assigned a position in the
procession-which, through courtesy
should have been done-but the mad
vertance is corrected in to-day's issue.
Our citizens will certainly be highly
pleased TO have these military
gentlemen pay our town a visit some
time during the Fourth-and especially
our popular townsman, Gen. Winters,
and his staff. If, after the military ex-
ercises are over iu Virginia city, the
State militia don't come down to Gold
Hill, and partake Of the inequalities Of
Slippery Gulch, we shall get mad-and,
and, get our backs up. We are in a
good humor now, and expect to be until
after the Fourth.
= BURNING OF THE PAvitIoS.-About
half.past eleven o'clock on Saturday
night last the Pavilion on the Plaza at
Carson, was discovered 70 be OF fire.
The greater part Of the inside Of the
building was all ablaze at once. lnas-
much as it has been unoccupied for
some months past, the FIRE was the re-
suit Of malicious mischief, of course.
The fremen and their apparatus were
promptly on the GROUND, and the out
side of the structure was saved almost
entire. Peter K~svsnagh owns the
building. We believe that there are
ample evidences that kerosene oil was
used By the i~ncendiaries. Here we have
a commencement of the seasons fires;
and BY the hands Of i~ucendiaries. Some
steps should be taken to secnrea strict
watch Of unoccupied buildings. We
should suppose the building 20 have
been injured to the amount Of moi less
than six or eight hundred dollars. 1t
is not iusured.--Cdr,on appeal.
Rev. A. F. WHITE has been appointed
State Mineralogist. A good appoint
ment. Mr.. White is a laborious, dis
eliminating, accurate student.
OPP PrLLows.-Iti is reported that the
Odd Fellows are to give a ball in Day
ton on the evening Of the 18th.
