Gold Mines in Nevada

Some twenty miles east of Wellington
Station, on the West Walker. and about
seventy-fve miles southeast of this city, a
district (Wilson's, 1 believe), is attracting
some attention, where very rich golo mines
have recently been discovered. The gold is
found in quartz rock, and the ledge is said to
be so wide that as yet no white man has as
certained its width. Fabulous reports are
made of its richness, and should one half OF
the amount of gold be extracted that is be-
lieved to be there in the said mountain. we
may reasonably expect to have the streets OF
Virginia paved with the precious metal, and
you and 1 using gold spoons, knives. forks,
and sich like, before another year rolls round.
When will wonders cease and Indians set
aside the use of pine nuts:
Terrific Storm.
On the night of the llth inst. very vio-
lent snow storm set in about II o'clock. pre-
ceded by raging, foaming. obstrepalous old
friendly visit from the gentle Washoe zephyr.
1t is useless for me to undertake to describe
the severity of the storm. but will just say
that it was hellish undertaking to face the
wind and snow. About two o'clock in the
morning had occasion to face the storm
about quarter of mile, and while propel-
ing that distance many thoughts rapidly fit
ted through my mind, from horror and pain
to an occasional pleasant imagination of past
and future. Good Lord, spare me from in
dulging in another storm like this one just
mentioned.
Miscellaneous.
Considering the long continued bad state
of the roads over the mountains, provisions
have increased but little over Summer prices
Wood is somewhat comfortable, (after being
placed in the stove, mean, having advanc-
ed from SIG to $40, and quick sale at that.
You bet it costs money to keep hot stoves
away up in this elevated altitude of ours.
Our Legislative body still continues to
move particularly when the dinner bell
rings) and have its being. Their doings,
thus far amount to nothing, comparatively,
and about twenty-five days more will relieve
the people of this State of so silly collec-
ton of presumption. The Governor vetoed
their extravagant bill engineered through by
the tin kettle DeLongites, for publishing the
laws in the Virginia TyespasS. This veto
brought them suddenly to halt, and being
unable to pass it over the veto, they are con-
siderably troubled as to what course to pur-
sue. Very rich indeed. but somewhat costly
to the taxpayers of Nevada.

RoBBING CLOTHES LINEs.-On
Thursday night the clothes line of
Mrs. Lechner, corner 'of Sixth and
Vine Streets, was robbed by some
mean thief of a quantity of blankets,
and other bed clothing, which had
been imprudently left out in the yard
over night. We had supposed that
every one know it was morally inn os-
sible to leave clothes out doors at
night, and ind them in the morning.

BEFORE JUSTICE EMERY.-A young
man was charged, in Justice Emery's
Court, with having stolen a pair of
boots. 1t appeared, on investigation,
however, that the boots were taken in
sport, while the young man was un-
der the influence of liquor, and were
taken back voluntarily, before any
complaint was filed against him. He
was discharged @
Barbara Gaspar, for provoking Geo.
G. Geiselman to a breach of the peace,
was fined 81, with 81 IS costs. Bar
bara, not to be outdone in devotion to
the dignity of the State of Indiana
and the vindication of the statutes
in such cases made and provided, filed
an affidavit charging Geiselman with
the same ofense, on which charge he
will have a hearing, probably to-day.
Simon Cohn filed an affidavit for
surety of the peace, against Harry
Porter, John Mclean and Charley
Kinkle. Porter had a hearing, and
was held to answer in higher court,
and in the meantime to keep the
peace in the sum of 5000 He gave
the requisite bail. The other two
took a change of venue, and were
sent to Justice Davidson, who, with
that leaning towards mercy which has
so distinguished him of late, dis
charged them.

MISSION SUNDAY SCHOOL. - The
Mission Sunday School had bril-
liant reunion and a most delightful
time on Thanksgiving Day. At two
o'clock in the afternoon the chiluren
assembled in the Crescent City Hall,
to the number of nearly one thousand,
and with the teachers and spectators,
exceeding that number. The Hall
was not merely crowded, but was alb
solutely packed, like sardines in box,
presenting "a particularly interesting
spectacle. The inging by the various
classes and by the school en- nlusSe was
very fine, indeed, and not the least
interesting was the singing by the
German classes, in their native tongue.
At intervals between the songs and
hymns, short addresses were made by
Revs. W. III. McCarer and R.Andrus,
very admirably adapted to the COM
prehension of the children, and we'll
calculated to interest and amuse them.
After an hour thus pleasantly passed,
small paper bags filed with good
things, such as doughnuts, cookies,
apples, &C., &C., were distributed
among the children of the Mission
School, and it was both pleasing and
amusing to see the air of curiosity
with which one peeped into the well
filled parcel to see what it contained.
1t was, indeed, a happy throng of
young folks. The Mission Sunday
School is highly interesting institu-
ton, and the Christian men and wo-
men who have devoted themselves to
the work of gathering up the strag-
Cling little ones and instructing them
mentally and morally, are achieving a
great work, the fruits of which will
be seen after many days, and they
will certainly obtain a rich reward for
their work of patience and labor OF
love.

FIRST OF THE New CROP-FINE
ToBACco.-The steamer VIM. White
brought to this city, on Thursday
morning, two hogsheads of tobacco,
the first of the new crop, and said to
be the finest specimen of tobacco ever
raised in the Green River country.
The quality of the crop of this sea-
son, in the Green River country, is
said to be superior to that grown for
several years past. The quantity, how
ever, is scarcely equal to that of last
year.

THr FIRE ON LOCUST STREET

The FIRE ON LOCUST STREET
The cause of the fire In Fred. Ben
nett's grocery, corner of Locust and
Second Streets, is still involved in
mystery. The stove was found
knocked over, or fallen over-mOst
likely the former, as the engine had
been playing in that direction. The
most plausible theory is, that. mice
knawed matches, as they have some
times been known to do, lgnltlng
them, and thus setting the building
on fire. 1t is impossible to ascer-
tain, as yet, the amount of the loss
incurred. The stock was, we are
told, insured for $4,000. which will
probably very nearly cover the loss.
Mr.. Bennett and his assistants have
been employed since the fire in gath
ering up the fragments. Every thing
in the building was badly smoked, but
none of the canned goods are sup
posed to be injured except in outward
appearance. The door opening into
the narrow alley was bursted open by
the police after the engine arrived, in
order that the firemen might gain in
gress with the hose.

hEOORDER COUhT-NZuiJ6 idISO |
amount of work was laid out in the |
Recorders Court yesterday, and some
very important concentrations reach
ed Peter Neff and John Hayden
were presented on charge of having
robbed the boot and shoe shop of
Reder & Becker, on the 9th of No
vember. They took, as one of them
confesses, nine pairs of boots and two
odd ones They made their way into
Illinois, and, in the meanwhile. had
accumulated, no doubt in an equally
honest manner, lot of ready-made
clothing, and went to peddling. At
Carlyle, Illinois, they were arrested
by the city authorities for being drunk
and for peddling without license An.
examination of their stock in trade
led the authorities to suspect that the
goods had been stolen, AID subse-
quent investigation strengthened that
belief.
Each of the boots stolen have upon
the white lining inside the tops the
stamp of Reder & Becker. These
had been blotted out with ink, max
ing an eliptical black brand. This
attracted the attention of some one,
who washed the ink off, and discover
ed the original stamp. Information
was forwarded to this city, and few
days ago Philip Klein, City Marshal,
and Policeman Wunderlich. went to
Illinois, and on Thursday night re-
turned with the prisoners, six pair
and two odd boots, and long sack
containing three pair of pants. two
coats, shirts, handkerchiefs, &C., &c.
They were held to answer the
charge of burglary, in the sum of
800 each, and being unable to fur
nish security. they were remanded to
jail Nef is near so years old, is a
shoemaker by trade, and, for time,
worked for Reder & Becker. Hay
den is comparatively young man,
and has rueful countenance. He
says he is from York State, and was
on his way to New Orleans to go to
work when he fell in with Neff, and
by him was lured into the commission
of crime that will undoubtedly land
him in the penitentiary.
| Neff stoutly denied having stolen
the boots, but says he found them by
the side of log in the woods near
Cairo, as he was scraping up leaves to
make fire. Hayden, however, made
full confession respecting the boots.
The clothing has not been recognized
or claimed.
John MCLEAN Harry Porter,
Charley Kinkle and the tooth-paste
man, named Geo. c. Scott. were
charged with being drunk and disor-
derby and with having resisted the
police officers. The three first named
gave bail for their appearance at 2
o'clock to-day, while Scott was re-
turned to Jail. We refrain from Civ
ing further particulars until they have
had hearing.
Another young man was charged
with having been drunk and disor-
derby, for which he was fined so,
with 50 35 costs; also. with carrying
concealed weapons, hearing on which
is set for to-day
