subsequent to the robbing, the aforesaid
Charley passed the store with the breast
of his coat pretty well stuffed out with
something, and Officer Gould being near
by, Mr.. Israel put him on track. Char

before the Recorder, but unless the sto,

Jurisdiction, it will be difficult to prove
anything against him in the matter.
HUMANITARIAN CHRISTIAN SOCIETY Or
aASIzEp.-No,withstanding the severe
storm and flood last evening, over thirty
persons, including some from Gold Hill,
assembled at the District Court room in
Virginia city, to consider the report OF
the Committee on organization, OF the
above named Society, which already
numbers one hundred and ten members.
The Constitution as reported was unan-
imously adopted, and the following OH
GERS were elected: Mr.. Esan, President;
A. Dyer, Vice President; 9. Wiegand,
Rector; d. S. Stevens, Secretary ".
n. Collins, Treasurer. After the rams
action of some other business, the ooei-
ETY. adjourned to meet in the same place
Sunday evening, January 18th, at
O'Clock, when the bylaws more fully
organizing the Society arc to be SUBJ
mitted.
RIVER OF S,Yx.-All last night and
to-day our Main street river has been up
and booming, taking its own arbitrary
course, and travelling on its own respon-
sibility, bearing on its turbulent bosom
sticks, boards, rags, and all other sorts
of trash. We noticed also along its
hanks numerous human ''sticks' stand
ing with their hands in their breeches,
mentally specializing on its probable
rise or fall, and its possible consequent
advantage or disadvantage to them:
This big rush Of water has sluiced OIL
all the mud, so there is no chance for
sticks of wagons, at least, going down
hill.
BARBERous.-As will be seen in an
other column of this paper, Mayer Y
Brodek still continue business at their
old stand on Main street, opposite
Pioneer street, Gold Hill, where they
are fully prepared and willing to extract
hair, teeth or blood from all who desire
the thing done in the ~neatest, most
pleasurable and expeditions manner
possible. Hair dressing, shaving and
all that sort Of thing done up right,
also the best of baths provided. La
dies, who truly have the interest OF their
capillary adornment at heart, should
consult Mayer& Brodek without delay.
THE ATHLETIC BALL. The second
annual ball of the Virginia Athletic
Club takes place on Christmas night,
December 25th, and not on the 24th, as
set forth on the tickets. Their ball IS
the best for the purpose in the city, and
the best of music being engaged and oil
proper precautions taken and cmergen-
cies provided for, the bali Of these
musclemen will doubtless prove what 1t
is intended to be, fully equal to the one
of last year, which was all that the most
fastidious could desire. We acknowl-
edge the receipt Of q complimentary
ticket.
"THERE's NOTHING LIKE LEArHER."-
This is an old expression, but will be
appreciated by all who buy their boots
at Gilmaa's, c street, Virginia, nearly
opposite Gillig, Mott & Co.'s. The
boots and shoes he sells are always
expected to last till a person gets tired
of them, and is ready to give them TO
the poor. Gilman keeps constantly on
hand q very extensive and superior as
sortment Of all varieties Of goods IN
his line, second to none in the city, and
Mt the very cheapest living rates. Gill
man fearlessly invites inspection Of his
stock.
THE TOURNAMENT To-NIGHr. The
grand match game of billiards for the
splendid champion cue, also for the
championship Of the State, between
George Hunt, of Gold Hill, and Wal
lace W. Wright, of Virginia city, takes
place this evening at Athletic Hall, Viz
ginia. The Hall will be well warmed,
