ANOTHER Dividend. - Admiral HUI
cuet, Superintendent Of the Gold Hill
Quartz Mill and Mining Company, issues
his proclamation to-day in the NEWS TO
all stockholders in his company to call
and get - dividend Of $500 per foot on
and after June 18th, instant. What
would Eastern capitalists say II we told
;aem, as we certainly do right now, that
II small mine of only fifteen feet front
age on the ComStock, pays u monthly
dividend Of three hundred dollars per
foot? 'Tis even so and the mine is in
Gold Hill. The Superintendent iufotms
as that the bullion product for June will
be double that for last May, and from
which this last dividend is produced.
ST. JoHS's FAlR-SEcoSp EVENING
Theater Hall was gay with a large and
cheerful company ofvisitors, all OF whom
entered with zest into the festivities Of
the occasion. The vocal music was
superb, and elected commentator from
every one. II closed AZ one o'clock
with spirited dancing. Tonight, the
silver service will be finally disposed of,
and the attractions be varied. The
various tables reflect great credit upon
those in charge of them for the taste ex-
hibi,ed in their preparation. Jacobs
Well" the "Postofice," ETC., are all
good. Our space will not admit Of de-
tail to-day, and we advise all to so this
evening and see for themselves.
BIG APPsrIrg.-The local of the Vir-
GINA morning paper says that if the
Gold Killers won, join their celebra-
ton of the Fourth OF July, the Virgin
ians will get "a bunch OF f~re-crackers,
a section Of gingerbread, and a bottle
Of small beer, and make a show As
we give the people of Virginia credit for
more sense than is credited above, and
= greater liberality on all patriotic &C.
casions, we believe they can get up a
celebration on a far more extensive
scale-and do it too, without again ask
ing Gold Hill TO bear u large portion OF
their expenses in celebrating ~lndepend-
euce Day.
MINING AccIDESr.-Last night about
half-pas. nine o'clock a cave occurred
in the Orernan mine, burying a work
man named James Carson. News Of the
accident was ~ once brought 10 the
town, and for a time much uueasiness
was felt. as il was at first thought that
the msu could no, possibly be alive I'M
der the pile Of rocks aud earth said 10
nave fallen upon him; but finally it was
ascertained that the man had been taken
out alive and well, with the exception
of a badly bruised leg. He had a mar
row escape, as the cave was Of sufficient
weight and extent TO have killed adoZen
men.
A B~EyEFIr.-0n Friday evening next,
at Piper's Opera House, a benefit will be
given to II. Van Bu%nschoten, who has
been afflicted by the loss Of sight. Lead
ing citizens Of Virginia have assured
the beneficiary that he should have a
substantial benefit" and we hope that
so many of our Gold Killers as can make
it convenient will attend and contribute
to aid the poor man, so that he can 60,
as he desires, to the Atlantic States and
there receive required surgical treat
ment from experienced occulis's.

Annual Ball, for the benef, Of Fort
Homestead, will come of on the even
