THE EVENING NEWS.
SAMSON, Tux P~uiLisrISEs BE uro,


"SAxsoS, Tux PuiLisrHEs BIZ UPON
TaSr. "-Gnrelessiy reposing in the toe
great confident fitness of inheren,
strength, the Republican party Of Gold
Hill is 10Y lying quiesccut and inactive,
while our C~oppcrhead, disloyal antago-
nists, the Democrats, are up md doing.
This is sufficiently demonstrated in the
fact that the registry list At Judge Halls
office, of those who will vote at the
coming election Of June lst, only con-
tanned mp to moo to-day ga names,
nearly nine-tenths of whom are Demo-
Gratis. The Democratic Organisation 10
this town is in full, earnest working OPP
Grafton lar more so thSn tho Republic
lican, aud have appointed two OF the
most active and intelligent Of their
number to watch the registry list, see
that no Republicans are registered who
can be kept or. and facilitate as lar rs
possible tho registration of Democrats.
This is something alter the style they
did mp things in Virginia, previous to
the late city election, aud IL we let them
nlso have it all their W way here in
Gold Hill in the matter Of registration,
we will most aSSuredly be placed in the
same bumiliating position as arc the
VirSinians to-day, 1t will not do for us
10 wait until the last moment and then
rush forward, for that very rush will be
taken advantage Of to rush in many an
illegal Copperhead voter. In illustration
of how things are working, we would
remark that illegal Democratic registra-
ton commenced in Gold Hill the very
next day utter the Virginia City election,
and there are already several names on
hat list that are spotted for dire retri-
button when the proper time comes /;
names, too, that were sworn in. We
would suggest in the mildest manner
possible that all guilty, Internal scoun-
drels in that respect, will find to their
sorrow that they cannot do this with
impunity, but are certain to DO sent to
State Prison, not only for perjury, but
also for wilfully Illegal registration.
Are the true Union men of Gold Hill
going to allow the enemy to quietly
erect strong batteries in their most im-
portant position, and smoothly, gently
work until they get the upper hand Of
us altogether? Is tho loyal Samson go
ing to sleep, confidently relying in his
inherent strength, until at tho last mo-
ment the fawning, seductive Delilah OF
Democracy, having shorn his Republi-
can locks, shall awaken him with the
startling cry Of Samson, the Philis-
tines are upon thee?" Awake | arouse,
Union men, grid on your armor aud face
the foe. March UP and sign the muster
roll at once. Delays are dangerous. .
Nsw UxIroRN-SwExxy GuAnp.-The
material for the proposed new uniform
of tho Sweeny Guard, Gold Hill, has
arrived, aud is nov being made up Mt
tho establishment Of Charles Brodhun,
merchant tailor, Main street, opposite
the NEws office. II will be the usual
style Of U. S. regulation uniform, con-
sisting Of dark blue frock coat and
pants, and Mcclellan fatigue cap, SINH
lar to the uniform worn by the National
Guard Of Virginia, only that the bands
and facings will all be OF n beautiful
emerald green, Instead Of light blue.
The cloth is very fine and good, aud the
uniforms, when completed, will cost
over 81, 700. On the tenth OF next
month the company will celebrate the
second anniversary Of its organization,
by a public parade in their new uniform,
and il the evening will give a grand
military and civic ball. The Sweeny
Guard is n fine company, creditable TO
Gold Hill, and should be sustained and
assisted all possible by our citizens.
A GRAVE JoxG.-E. W. Reyes, the
celebrated Horntown undertaken, in
view of the result Of the Virginia City
election, waxeth jubilant, aud kindly
volunteers to bury the entire Union
party in FIRST class style, free Of charge.
This hilarious, smiling hearse-rider, no.
%toriousiy has AZ eye to business, and
never makes any such recklessly liberal
offe<s when he thinks there is u chance
of having anything to do. Nonsense
Reyes save up your collins for the De-
mocracy this Fall, they win need them,
besides all you can beg, steal or borrow.
Don't be too fast to gobble up people
before they are dead. The old, played
out dodge Of pokins undertaker's cards
under sick peoples doors, won't do in
this case. Go shroud your head, Reyes.
Get thee toa rummery.'
Rgyo.-To-morrow the town lots at
Reno will DO sold at auction, and great
bargains may be expected. The man.
aremcnt OF the town lot business is in
the hands Of Hon. ID. H. Haskell, OF
Aurora, in this State, who is residing at
Reno at present, and who will afford our
Nevada friends every facility, through
maps and by viewing the ground, where
the best localities for eligible lots are to
be picked out. The title to the realty
is in the hands Of the Central Pacific
Railroad Company, and is said to be
entirely legal. Whether the prices for
lots will be exhorbitant, Of course we
cannot tell ut this time, but we presume
not, aud every man with q reasonable
sum will have u fair chance to purchase
il no wants to.
ALL QUIEr.-We hear no more OF
wars anu rutuOte VI Nahs
Honey Lake country, nor anything more
about Indian atrocities and s~ggressions.
No more settlers have been killed since
the massacre Of the Picrson family, and
no more cattle or horses arc reported 10
be stolen. The armed bands Of settlers
who went wi to avenge the P~iersous,
and the troops from Fort Churchill,
have fought no desperate battles
with the red. skins, but have pretty much
all returned without taking scalps. The
settlers, who with their families fed
from reported danger, have all gone
back 10 their Homes, and all seems quie'
and peaceful in that quarter once more
The OccrprSrAL.-The company own
ing this valuable mines, situated soms
two miles east of Gold Hill, are about
to sink a shaft in their mine to the watei
level, in order to prospect their lead tc
a depth much greater than they have
ever heretofore explored IL. They al
ready have an incline down upon theii
lowest level to a depth of 100 feet, and
this will DO carried down until water II
struck. At present the bottom OF the
