Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1867-04-05
H EVENING NEWS.

Guards will hold an election-under an
official order of the Judge of the District
Court, to be conducted by Judge Robin-
son-for the choice Of officers Of said
company. Up to this morning, there
were forty members enrolled on the con-
stitution and Bylaws of the Guards,
which is the requisite number required
by law t organize a Military Company.
There are, however, quite a number OF
others who signed the original call for
the organization who will sign before
tomorrow night, and in time to take
part in the election. The GOLD HILL
GUARDS are starting in with the very
best Of prospects for the organization Of
an efficient, a permanent, and credita-
BILE local military company. So far as
they have signed the roll-call. they con-
sis, Of some of our very best young men
in the COMMUNICATIONS Of whom have
stood high in rank in military COM
panies in California, as well rs in mil
itary companies in the State Of Nevada
At home-for many of them were MEM
bers of our Gold Hill Home Guards
several years ago-and are pretty well
acquainted with the duties belonging
to members Of military companies.
Arms, accoutrements, and everything
necessary, for an efficient organization
of the Gold Hill Guards, is awaiting
their orders at the Adjutant Generals
office. so soon as the election Tomorrow
night is over. We hope to see our two
local military companies make q hne
display on the next Fourth OF July.
The Sweeny Guards, under that gallant
officer, Captain McGinty, are already q
source Of pride to Gold Hill, and the
list being already full is perhaps the
only regret that its members do not
count double the number.
The REASON WHY.-We noticed that
stocks had an upward tendency, and
not being certain what was the cause
of il we made Il trip around among the
mines of Gold Hill TO see what was up.
We found the prices corresponded
with the character Of ore which was
being taken out. The Yellow Jacket
stocks are decidedly on the rise, and
well the ore which is being taken out
iustifcs it, never have WI seen better
looking ore than what is being taken
from the south shan of the Yellow
Jacket mine. The metal generally lays
in black sulphurets of silver which Is
well disseminated through he rock,
while 4 great deal of the finer pieces
..,hs,, kr. L., ., pS of pnrA anlnhnr-
cts which are so brittle that in picking
il out il breaks into very small pieces.
Much of the best ore now being taken
out Of this mine is Il kind OF soft decom-
posed mass of s%ulphurets, chlorides and
clay. At the Kentuck and Crown
Point mines we found very similar ore
but hardly so rich as that of the Yellow
Jacket. The time when the Imperial
and Empire will be tapped is not very
far distant, when we may confidently
expect TO see the upper end or Gold
Hill produce u large amount Of splendid
ore. Most of the ore now taken from
the mines above the Yellow Jacket
comes from the surface and is not near
so rich AS what is found at a greater
depth. The top rock yielding prin-
cipally gold, while the ore taken from
the lower levels is mostly silver. ThouS-
ands of tons, however, Of good paying
ore still remains to be taken out from
the surface of the ground. Things
evidently look encouraging.
Mons SuoorlSG.-Last evening as a
gentleman of Virginia was passing up
C street, opposite the International, he
was met by a woman who wanted blood.
When within a few feet Of him, without
saving a single word, she drew a piston
and made an attempt to kill him. just
as she fired, however, he put out his
hand and struck the weapon, knocking
il down so the charge went INTO the
sidewalk. The man left on the double
quick and Capt. Downey, who was near
by, promptly arrested the woman and
took her to Jail. She paid the costs OF
Court and left town for all coming time.
Silver Bend is catching many q hard one
Coop RoADs.-The road-makers in
Gold Hill have finished up a portion OF
their road. If the same kind Of a road
was built all the way to Dayton, team
ing during the winter would be about
as good as in ummer. II IS MADE OF
waste rock from the dumps Of different
mines, and is put on the road to the
depth of about two feet, making the
road rounded in the centre, and not al
lowing any water to remain on that
mart travelled on. A deep ditch on each
aide of the road is what is necessary to
make the road a complete one.
CRowpEp.-The great influx OF peo-
ple to Virginia begins to show on The
streets. They begin to look as they did
in 1868. Then every n had money,
hut now scarcely any n has money.
Rus;ness of all kinds, however, seems
10 be quite lively job wagons loaded
with goods may be seen passing IN all
directions. No new goods, however,
have arrived as yet, owing to the pad
condition OF the roads. Within two
weeks. if the weather holds good, times
will be very lively.
ARREsrEp.-Ohicer Gould and Higoee
who forced a door night before last IN
order to gain admittance to a hous'
where they were refused, were yester
day arrested and will have q hearing
before Justice Addison to-day. In
parties refusing them admission wer'
Yesterday tried before the Police Cour
and fined SIS each.
BEAUTIFUL HAIR.-Sajous & Liprnan

lished a splendid Hair Dressing room,
and in an advertisement, (which VII
appear in the NEWS invit
the ladies to call and examine their Gle
can't stock Of Hair, Braids, Curis, wa
terfalls, etc.
