month. Alderman Adams declared him
self opposed to letting the for an,
such purpose. He said it would be i'm

NEW METHOD o SELLING MINES
The Alta California has a correspondence
from Dowaieville, which says: "ln a
recent issue YOU give San Franciseans
the credit OF having purchased the Good
Hone quartz cain, in Trinity county.
They have not, as yet, been fortunate
enough TO become its owners, though
the yield from the working Of the ore
has made them strive to do so. The
lowest result worked at the mine from
nearly 800 tons Il SIS 80 per ton,
while of two separate lots which were
thoroughly worked in your city, the
first yielded $40 and the other SS+ per
ton. Ii is favorsbly located for work
ing, having water power six months In
the year, and fuel being cheap and album
dant. We have had u plaster model
made OF the mine, which, being con-
structed in sections, can be taken apart
so as to give II view of the interior n
the surface of the niue. We will in-
form YOU at an early day when this in
genious method Of illustrating q mine
can be seen, as we intend sending 1t to
your city SOON"
WouLp LOOK BAp.-The Trespdss, of
last evening, contains an article on the
political situation" of affairs, on uni
verssl suffrage. In speaking Of Universe
Bills little club of managers in virginia
city. into whose caudle-light no honest
Union man would wish TO enter brother
Forbes very truthfully remarks: sis any
one OF these men, or is their sickly little
club, competent to say that we are not
right to oppose this movement to place
u milestone about the neck OF the Union
party? They say the Union party must
be a unit. Their policy would make 1t
a. euauch, instead" Truly, the last
word except one of the foregoing ex-
tract, has put US into q serious mood.
We have never yet belonged to a politi-
cal party who were SO shorn Of all that
would presage victory, success, and
triumph; in all that would be glorious,
gallant; and which alone has and ever
will secure that indispensable assistance
to success. Forbes is right! Bet yer
life ont.
4 New MrSING MAcHISE.-The Idaho
World speaks of q new mining machine
which has recently been Invented in
tha, place by q miner named Emerson.
The principle is described as follows
The sluice boxes lead to an endless re-
~yolving chain, to which strong metal
scoopinC cups are fastened, similar in
kind to the elevators in q houring mill,
which take the refuse dirt and deposit
i, in a sharp, sloping, great sluice box,
which is rugged to move from side to
side. so as to equalize the dumping
beons. A Chinese wheel drives the
endless chain, and the water from the
wheel is thrown back, as its force is
used. into the sluice boxes, thus effect
ing an economy in water. We heard
some miners who had given the model a
close examination express rather favor
able opinions ofit.
"CRooxs" AsCEYDANT.-The Hum
boldt Register copies the anecdote we
recently gave of Charley DeLong and
Crooks" and says: "The Constitu-
ton and Crook are again in the ascen-
dant both are fixtures of the county,
bonored and respected alike by a major
ity Of the people. The reason nat
Crook and his friends took otfense ut
Charley belong vas because they
thought him q spy or a loyal Informer,
seeking to embroil Crook in a conflict
with the military Government that run
Humboldt at that time and muzzied
Crook. When Charley comes again to
fix his tricks for the United States Sem
ate, the mention of Crook and the Con-
stitution will be greeted with shouts Of
applause, instead of frowns as before
GREAT PLAcE.-virginia city is a fast
town in the line Of the nude drama.
They have run through "Mazeppa" and
innumerable forms Of the "Black Crook
and are now running an extravaganza
entitled /" Lady Godiya." When it is
remembered that the original lady rode
through the sober town Of Coventry
with only the covering that nature gave
her, we cannot help wondering how tho
imitation will appear upon the boards
of a place like Virginia city.-Saeramen-
TO Record.
REM,rrrruR.-At the last meeting Of
the Supreme Court the rule for sending
down rem it,itur was changed. Instead
of being, as formerly, ten days from
entry of judgment, it is now ten lays
from publication of opinion.-car'0n
appeal.
PipER's.- Rousing performance to-
night. Tomorrow evening is a oeneht
nigh. for Kathleen O'Neil. Piper's me-
lodeon is rendered very comfortable oy
stoves. The best of liquors and cigars
dispensed.
