be no lack on tomorrow evening for q
good audience to listen to the speaker.
Let as many be present as can ill the
church.
CATHOLIC SERVICES. The Catholic
services, on Sunday, at the church OF
that denomination in Carson, were well
attended. Bishop O'Connsll spoke
morning and evening. The occasion
also drew to the church many Protes-
tauts. The eloquence Of the Bishop, and
the liberality and charity with which
he spoke of other denominations is CON-
mended by those present who are usu-
ally attendants upon Protestant service,
aud who had the pleasure Of listening
on those occasions. Six persons were
confirmed according 10 the usage Of that
church, at the morning service. The
Bishop preached again last evening
Carson Appeal.
SrAcxs.-we were in at B9gle's early
this morning, and We have no other
expression for the sights We there saw
than to remark that Begle has stacks Of
EN-. Yes, sir; stacks of magazines and
illustrated newspapers. Talk about the
people not reading in this country.
We'll, if they do not dsyour current
light literature and delight in picture
papers, then they purchase much for no
seaside motive. Begle bag a full sup
ply Of those excellent monthly journals
for the family. The Lars Of Life aud The
Herald Of Health.
The MrSr.-There has been an i'm
preston that work has been stopped on
the Mint building. This is a mistaken
idea. A few persons were temporarily
thrown out Of work from inability OF
the Superintendent TO supply brick fast
enough for their use. This difficulty
will probably be remedied by next Mon
day, aud the masons will theu be ordered
aloft-for the work il now upon the
second story of the building. The stone
work is nearly completed, with the ex-
ception Of putting in place.-AppeaI.
RAcEs.-The Carson course is in trim
for nexr month. Morg. has been en-
gagged as grand stake holder, which is
a bad arrangement for Norg. 1t will
take his mind TOO much OF the buboling
baths. Pix. would have done better.
Indeed, Pix. would have done very well
in the capacity mentioned. The pos
ters are up for the racing, and 'the
boys" are going round the corner about
twenty times & day counting their
wagering capital.
Opera HOUSE, MELoDEoS. "A good
audience last evening, and q frst-rass
entertainment. Joe Murphy as the Chi
nese Washerman should be seen. BE
makes a huge character out Of Johr
Washee,-no mistake. Miss Maggie
Brewers comic songs are much apPlau-
ded.
Bs1sHr LIeHr.-The reflection from
the furnaces of the Central Mill, on l
and Carson streets, Virginia, is so origh'
that those who are not aware OF TIT
cause of the illumination have their IN
itia,ory " turn Of disposition, on darS
nights, TO shout " fire."
ABALL.-It will be seen by an adver
tisement in another column, that ther'
will De a grand ball given at Fort Home
stead, the proceeds of which are to g
10 the benefit of the Miners Union o
Gold Hill. We predict that It viii D.
the largest ball ever given in Gold Hi!
LIouoR.-There are ~siIsy-sevsn liquo'
bars in Virginia City, including min
tsst are in lager beer saloons and prin
.cipally devoted to the dispensing OF ina
