H EVENING NEWS.

dark and stormy weather OF Winter II
past, and Spring with its sunshine, gooC
roads, and lively times is here, let on
business men remember that there viii
be a great many strangers coming in from
all parts of the State to make theil
homes among US. While from the int
rior Of the State there will be hundred:
of persons who will flock to Virgins
and Gold Hill to lay in supplies for the
Summer, supplies for prospecting
expeditions, supplies for small country
stores, etc., let those who are wise see
that they have a directory in the papers
to let people know they have the arti.
Giles desired, and where to find them,
Nothing was ever lost BY advertising,
while fortunes have been made by it,
There is no season Of the year when i,
is of so much benefit to advertise as
when business first opens in the Spring,
A stranger coming into a town natural
ly looks at the columns Of the papers TO
see who are doing the largest business,
aud according TO length of his advertise
ment does he judge Of the amount OF
business the firm is doing, and accord
ing to the amount of business done does
he Judge of the prices and quality OF
goods. If our merchants go to San
Francisco &c purchase goods they gene
rally 60 TO a house which has II good
name and not to one of which nothing
is known, As we are q disinterested
person, being but an employee, it cannot
be charged that any selfish motives are
At the bottom of our reasonings. But II
i; is nj ain reasoning, then we say, by
all means lose no time in advertising
no, in one paper, but in all the papers
in the county. Let the people know
you are in the market and that you have
your goods aud wares for sale, and that
YOU are bound to sell even ifyour profits
are small. Let them know that a small
lot of goods can be bought in our own
State for less than they al be brought
from California, and you will do bust
ness.
CoMo.-We learn from a friend that
Como, once the land of bright dreams
with US and many others, who have long
since dcspaired of ever making q for
tune in that locality, and have sought
Gold Hill and Virginia as more fertile
fields, is entirely in ruins. There IS
scarcely a building left standing. Dur
ing the heavy gales that prevailed some
two months since, what buildings were
standing were either blown down or
wrecked. The mill-house, which was a
strong frame building, was blown down
BY the gale. The machinery had all
been taken out and removed to kear-
sarge, about q year ago. The snow fell
to the depth of ten feet. A few men
who were employed in the District
(Palmyral were compelled TO get out as
best they could. Quite = number OF
horses and cattle were in the hills, near
" all of which persisted. The men who
were in the District managed to drive q
portion of them down into the low lands;
bu, owing to the danger Of being showed
in, and not knowing the science OF snow
shoeing, they got out as soon rs posi-
BILE. PALMYRA, with all her former
greatness, has fallen. The fate Of
PALMYRA District. however, has been
nothing more than that of hundreds of
Others. Il will, no doubt, some day, be
n great mining region, but we do not
think i, will be during this generation.
B~ESEvoLENcE. - Mrs. Gattiker, the
old lady who had the misfortune, on
last Monday, to fall on the pavement
and break her leg, i, certainly a worthy
person, and deserving some Of that be-
nevolence so generously bestowed on
the poor of Virginia and Gold Hill. Mrs.
Gattiker and her husband are both very
old, and have been supporting them
selves by keeping a small bakery on
South C street. Virginia. Now, that the
old lady is unable to attend to her bust
ness, a demand is made on the generosi-
" of the people. Mrs. Miller, Of the
National Hotel, Gold Hill, and Mrs.
Melsiug of Virginia, were around, yes
terday, among our peopl. soliciting as
s~istance, which, we believe, was liber-
ally responded to by our citizens.
BULLION MISE.-This morning We
were at the Bullion mine but found no
change in the looks Of things. They
continue 10 drift around in the lower
regions. One of the men said the next
move was to run a drift 20 Excelsior, so
the people could get out. We don't
know that our climate is much better
than theirs. There is not a mine In the
State where there has been more work
done without obtaining any ore as a set
of against expenses, than in the Bullion
mine. Merit always has its reward, and
the Bullion wners, some day, will have
theirs.
POLICE CouRr, VIRGINIA. - James
Goyne, arrested by officer McGinniss for
committing a nuisance; Catherine kav-
anaugh, arrested by officer Cook for an
assault with intent TO commit murder;
Mrs. Kate Doe, arrested by officer Cook
for an assault with intent to murder;

peace: Lucy Doe, arrested by officer
Billings for being drunk and d~isorderly;
Bipelow, arrested by officer Billings for
being drunk and d~isorderly.
ouARrz-HAuLISa.- Yesterday after
loon we were in the lower part of Gold
Hill, and all that was to be seen was
ousrtz-wagous going in every direction.
we have not seen so many teams on the
road for many weeks past as there were
yesterday. From the amount OF ore
which is being hauled down the Canon,
all the mills will soon have q supply.
From the Imperial Mill to Dayton and
Empire, the road is in excellent condi-
ton, being quite dusty a greater portion
Of the way.
TRour.-Yesterday a man brought
into Virginia 1900 pounds of the finest
trou, from Pyramid Lake, we have ever
seen. They were nearly all Of n size
and would weigh about four pounds
each. There were a few, however, that
would weigh eight or ten pounds. n
The market had just been supplied ano
the Door fellow was compelled to senior
whatever he could get.
