his luek Mt a certain popular notion re-
rardinr il. He wrapped it carefully in
a niece Of white paper on which was
written the nance Of three manageable
females Of his acquaintance here in Gold
Hill. The precious cabalistic package
he placed beneath his pillow, and ac-
cording to specified rule, slept on it
three nights, il being the decree Of fate
that whichever Of the three ladies he
should dream of irst, would be his
future wife. The first night he dreamed
that all three of the ladies came and
put their arm around his neck and
embraced him very heartily n low
ingly so much so that n sense OF sur,
location aroused him, and he found
all his blankets had con'rived 10 VIM
themselves up in II big roll ABOUT uIs
neck and head. The seeonu n'gu'
he dreamed he saw his three iauy-
loves sitting on the top oil Mount
Davidson, which was transformed INTO
n hinge douChnut frosted around with
a thick crust of white sugar. His only
way TO get TO them was to eat up the
mountain. He started at it, and had
nearly succeeded, when he walked up
with q violent collie. The third night
he dreamed he stood on the west bank
of Carson river and saw all three OF
those dear ladies again, and this time
they were on the back Of q huge whale
which was remorselessly bearing them
onward to swift destruction in the Lower
Sink, where they were sure to get per-
manently alkalied. Plunging in to their
rescue, he was awakened by the shock
and found himself sprawliug on his
bedroom floor. He WAS now in u guam
dary, and in order to satisfactorily de-
eide the matter, the fourth night on
going TO bed he ate the cake. II was
truly a night of horror. An elephant
sat on him, then q drove of cattle passed
across his stomach lengthwise, then the
three ladies came and walked him up by
punching him in the ribs with telegraph
poles. He is now in Il worse ~quandary
than ever.
"THE CoRsicAN BROTHERS. This
fine piece was repeated to a good audi
ence last evening ut the Opera House.
I. was az ladies' night" and numerous
of the fair sex graced the dress circle.
The piece is we'll put upon the stage,
with an excellent cast Of characters, Sue
Robinson p~ersonating the twin brothers
Fabieu and Louis del Franchi. So well
is her counterpart managed, that unless
closely watched, she cannot be detected
in making the change, so that on
two or three occasions both the
brothers appear At one and the
same time; both living flesh and
blood, and both apparently Sue Robin
son. The machinery for the apparition
works splendidly, but the tableaux, al
though we'll arranged, are somewhat
marred in their effect by the thickness
of the gauze curtain, rendering them
o indistinc,. The Pipsrs have gone to
considerable expense in presenting TINS
piece properly to their patrons, and we
are pleased to cote its success 1t will
be given again, together with other at
fractions, this evening, and it will be
"ladies' night again.

BIRTH DAY.-Mr. Harry Clawson, Of

his thirty-fourth birth day. As a re-
miuder of the happy occasion, Harry
sent us a bottle of that delicious wine
known as "Moselle," with which we
have vigorously drank to his good looks ;
10 his health several times ; to his pros
perity at least a dozen times to his
future success twenty times TO his up
right and moral standing at least once
and to - by gosh the bottle has
given out, or we would have sent him
on q voyage to see old st. Peter, who is
supposed to be door-keeper to Paradise.
Another bottle would have sent him over
Jordan, sure.
CAxpEp OUr.-About l2 o'clock last
night, parties coming down from Vir-
GINA, found a man lying on the Tunnel
toll-road, below the Imperial-Empirc
dump, fast asleep, exposed to the freez-
ing blasts of the stormy weather. He
was formerly cook ut the Russell House,
Gold Hill, and had been TO Horntown,
where he evidently had imbibed too
many horns Of Horntown rot-gut, in.
ducing him to camp out in the aforesaid
bleak locality when he was found. He
was picked up and taken to more COM
Portable quarters, otherwise he would
have been pretty sure 10 have frozen 10
death before morning.
HEALrHY.-Dr. S. A. McMeans in
forms us that during the past five
months it has been healthier in Vir.
o;nia and Gold Hill than he ha:
aver known of before. This is a little
rough on tue meuiS"i -
of whom find it rather difficult 70 keep
eyeu" under such depressing circum,
stances. If they. can only stand it til
warm weather and green fruits anc
vegetables come along, they think they
will be all right. Tho druggists al
concur.
