TSt2 FuNa rAEa's REPLY
ssGEHEIR1aE1S :-On behalf of the Chinese mer-
chants and citizens present desire to thank you
for the invitations we have received to be present
on this occasion: We consider the opening up Of
great.stearn line between California and China
and Japan q very important event: We hope it
may prove to be ofveTy great benefit to Azaerica
trade and commerce; 80 are the Americans and
we hope both countries may profit by it. There
sixty thousand Chinese on the Pacific coast en-
gagged in all kinds Of business, many in mining and
many engeged in trade and commerce. I came to
California ten years ago, and have been engaged as
q merchant all that time. I learned to read and
write English with the Rev. AIr. Speer, formerly
missionary IN China and this city fappiause), tor
whom I have great respect. In my business l have
good many acquaintances among the first ner-
chants and business men Of San Francisco. They
have always treated tho Chinese merchants with
great kinonaasi snd hope Lhe intercourse has
to the Chinese merchants. We believe that the
new steamship line to China and Japan well estab-
ished, and the Paciac Railroad completed, San
Francisco must become one Of the greatest cities
trade Of China with the East ought to come T by
San Francisco. The population Of China and Japan
lis very large, and those countries produce great
many things which Europe and America desire,
needed IN China and Japan. We hope that friend
China for al future time ....S N, d

BUILDING UP.-The energy and P rsever-
ance of our citizens are remarkable. Not
outstanding the fact that our town has been
partially destroyed by fire twice during the
past two years-cnough one would suppose
to discourage the stoutest heart-our citi-
zens are commencing to build up the portion
burned on the oath. Californians appear to
be indomitable. Circumstances, however
adverse, seem but TO inspire them with re-
newcd hope and fresh courage. They laugh
at misfortune and their spirits appear to rise
as difficulties thicken around their pathway.
Mokelumne Hill will not stay burned. 1t
is sickening TO watch the deyouring clement
destroy the hard earnings of years, ones
home around which the affections cluster,
knowing that you are powerless to save;
but the kissing and cracking Of the flames
are scarcely hushed ere new buildings spring
up in the places of those destroyed like
magic. W. P. Peek & Co., proprietors of
the stable in which the fire caught, are
making preparations to rebuild. Their stable,
the "Union," was one Of the largest. finest
and best appointed in the mountains. 1t
was burned in 1860, and now its Phoenix"
is also destroyed. During the interim, pre-
vous to the completion of theirnew building,
their customers will find them at the old FL
Dorado in rear of Sturges store, where they
have a fine stock of saddle and buggy
horses. Mr.. Joseph Dan;elewitz is buslly
engaged in repairing his building and soon
every trace of the fire will be effaced from
its walls. Mr.. Schlund can be found by
those who wish to purchase jewelry, watches
or clocks, or who have gold dust to sell, in
the room formerly occupied by Justice
Hopkins, next door to Fahey's saloon. He
will also rebuild. Hexter Co., have es-
tablished their market in the Root building
and are prepared to serve their customers
with the best the "market' affords as usual.
They also contemplate rebuilding. Justice
Leavitt's office is in the Court House. Mo-
kelumne Hill will be herself again in few
weeks.

TuEArRE.-During the past week our cit
;zens have been favored and really delighted
with several performances by the Wilton
Dramatic Troupe. Arriving on wednesday
morning. without previous announcement
unheralded by flourish of trumpets or Oio",
ing of horns, but small audience greece
their first appearance in Mokelumne Iii
Notwithstanding this discouraglns iac'' nv
ever. Manager Wilton. confident that mooes'
,,orit would succeed if it had chance de-
.o-,,,;red n give our citizens taste OF MS
mettle. The "Colleen Bawn' was 'he P'eoV
selected for the evenings entertainments anu.
considering the limited amount OF scenery anu
appliances which the theatre afforos' 1t "A,
nlaeed upon the stage in excellent 81! an"
the various parts were well sustained Ms,
Wilton, as Ely O'Conner, the unhappy wv
leen Bawn," performed that difficult '0s ~
,arfection. She is a fine singer anu
Wearing of the Green and other pieces n-'0
beautifully. Mr.. Wilton, as "MyleS Na0op-
naleen" and DANNY Mann, repreSeN'eu
those characters to the life. Miss Perkins,
as the LIVELY and coquettish "Ann Chule' ,
succeeded in turning half the heads IN the
house. The other characters were we'll sus-
tanned by the company. A song lmproVised
bv Mr.. Graham, containing local hits and
illusions. was well received. The perform
ance was concluded with that ever popular
farce. "Toodlas," with Mr.. and Mrs. Wilton
in the principal parts. On Thursday even
ing the play of "Madelaine or the Reform
ed Drunkard' was enacted before large and
fashionable audience. Mrs. Wilton, the un-
fortunate .Madelaine," the wife of the beast
" bertrand" personated the character WIFI
fidelity to nature. She is really an actress
of versatile abilities. The passing emotion;
of love, hate, scorn, grief and despair, were
es plainly depicted upon her countenance a.
alternate sunshine and shadow playing upor
the placid bosom of a lake. Prepossessing il
appearance; easy and graceful in her car
rage; with one of the clearest, sweetest ant
best modulated voices we ever heard, 1t is nj
wonder that she becomes favorlte wher
ever she goes. Mr.. Wilton played the par
of Bertrand" the drunkard, first-rate. w
speak from experience. The whole piece wa
well enacted and received the applause o
tho audience. An impromptu song by Mr.
Graham, drought down the house" "Sha
mus O'Brien," was recited by Mrs Wilton II
manner which we never heard equalled.-
The mobility of her features IS surprising
We regard her as the finest elocutionist OF
this coast, and we have listened to the bes
of them. The entertainment concluded will
the roaring farce of the dead Shot This
friday evening, "Don Caesar de Bazan'
Will be presented, at the conclusion of whicl
a grand ball will be given by Church Jones
The Wilton Dramatic Troupe is far superio
TO any company which has visited our tow
for years, and it gives US genuine pleasure t
commend them to the pubic. We wish then
every success because they deserve it.
