Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1867-03-28
THE EVENING NEWS.

on the evening of the late meeting.
We made an attempt to count, and can
not state exactly, but made the number,
Us near as we could by II count, to be
525. The dresS-circle was filed, both
sitting and standing room, while the
seats in the parquet were filled half way
back, and all the space in front, next
the stage, was filled with men standing
up in order to be near the stove. There
were, during the evening, in all, over
seven hundred persons present. Some
left at . O'Clock, and many of the bust
ness men came in after their places of
business had been closed. At the time
the vote was taken on the resolutions,
there were nearly as many present as at
any time during the evening. Owing TO
the lateuess of the hour, and all who
were present being either business men
or miners, some went home before the
meeting closed. But, to do justice with
out Partially, we do not hesitate TO say
that it was the largest and most enthu-
siastic meeting we ever saw in the Opera
House, and composed of 4" the bone and
sinew of the county"
MAX WALrER.-We see by the San
Francisco Gail that Max is still in that
city. 1t says Max will hardly make an
attempt to take = troupe over the noun
taius at this time, owing to the bad
roads and high price Of freight. This
is a mistake, for Captain C~larkson, who
is better posted than any one else, eS-
pected him this morning on the stage,
but as he did not come, he thinks he
will be along tomorrow. Rent is going
on, and all paid for, therefore Max will
hurry up as fast as possible. II IS no
easy matter TO pick up a good minstrel
troupe in San Francisco in = few days,
as all good actors are under engage
ments, and must finish them before they
can leave. No doubt, but what Max IS
more looser, by the delay, than any Of
those who complain of his hardness.
Give him time TO secure Il good COM
pany, and when he does come, be will
be able to give satisfaction.
TxANrxG.-Although the roads are in
a miserable condition, teaming is now
carried on to the full extent of the stock
and wagons which can be brought into
service. This morning, in coming from
Virginia TO Gold Hill, we counted forty
five large wagons, loaded with quartz.
On our arrival in Gold Hill we found
Main street filled with teams, while at
all the dumps there was = large number.
Some were loading and others waiting
for their turn. The muddy roads will
not permit the teamsters 10 haul as
large loads as when the roads are good,
We, the great number of teams manage
10 supply all the mills which are Access
sible, those of WaShoe being out OF
reach az present. The teaming from the
Imperial mill, in lower Gold Hill, to
Silver City, Dayton, Empire and Carson
is very good.
RouGH. Among the many break
downs there was one occurred in the
lower part Of Gold Hill, a day or two
since. which was decidedly neat and
complete. There were deep rutS cut in
the road bv wide tread wagons in which
all of that gauge passed along compar-
~atiyelv easy, but the one OF which we
speak was a little under the usual width
and consequently, in running in the
aforesaid track, was forced apart until
the front axle was broken short OH on
both sides at the shoulder Of the spin
die, letting the front of the wagon sud
denly to the ground. There are II great
many broken wagons scattered along
the roads all over the country, while all
the shops are busy repairing. We no.
ticed AZ some of the shops as many as
twenty with broken wheels axIes.
Coon TENPLARs.-The Good Temp
lars of Virginia, are evidently doing a
most excellent work. Last evening DR..
Gates was initiated into the great broth
erhood of those who drink nothing but
pure sparkling water. The Doctor Is a
man Of more than ordinary talents, but
the use of intoxicating beverages were
turning those talents 10 no beueht to
himself or others. Now tina; he has put
his hand to the pillow we shall look for
him to be one of those who will not look
back, but when the summer OF life IS
past and the harvest is TO be gathered,
the Doctor will find he began to sow
good seed on the 9th Of March, 1867.
PRosPEcroRs.-A company Of ten
hardy prospectors left Gold Hill to-day
for the Goose Creek Mountains, hight
up on the Humboldt river, to hunt gold
or silver lodges. They go well provided
with provisions and ammunition, and
each man has n Henry repeating rifle.
They will probably need them, as the
Goose Creek Mountains have always
beeu known as the stamping-ground OF
n band of cut-throat Indians.
THROUGH TrcKErs.-We were inform
ed this morning by Vim. Crandall, Esq,
Stage AGENT. that on and after the first
dav Of April the fare by Fast Freight
from Virginia to Belmont, Silver Bend
District. would be S25. All those wish
inc 20 90 straight through from Virginia
orGold Hill, should engage their pas
SAGE through, as there Will be great dith-
Guilty in getting passage from A"S''n'
wAsuoE EXCHANGE. - This favorite
Mace of resort and amusement continues
70 be thronged day and night. Uncle
Dave Evans says he wants another
room of the same size and the same
number of tables in order to accommo-
date the people who are now IN tne
habit of coming there to play. Uncle
Dave SAYS he attributes it to advertising
in the News. That is just our opinion.
