A New TELEGRAru..-Dr. Mayer, Of
Gold Hill, by accident, but an inherent
" mothers wit" from Faderland, this
morning made q discovery Of a new
kind or style Of telegraphic signal,
which, W. will guarantee to say, is the
most original scientific invention ever
conceived on "this side of the Rocky
mountains" DR.. Hitler, Of Virginia
city, first brought the subject to light,
but DR.. Mayer made M extensive en-
largement on the idea, astonishing his
friends by his ~adap,ability in explaining
or giving u distant but perfectly intelli-
gible signal on the uewly-constructed
machine. Col. John II. Mills and Col.
Watson have examined into this new
telegraphic signal, and both seem favor
ably impressed with it. Col. Watson,
especially, considers it a " big thing on
ice"
THE LECTURE LAST EvENISG.--We re-
greet to state that there were very few
people. in attendance ut the temperance
lecture Of Rev. a. G. McDougall last
evening. Those who were present,
however, speak very highly Of it. y
friend who was present says "Gold-
Killers frequently lose a good treat,
mot q whisky treat, but an intellectual
one,) and nothing short Of Democratic
bombast or II dog fight can bring n
crowd together. Go it, boys, if you
think there is no salvation" At the
close OF the lecture all present were in
vited to join the Lodge of Good Tenn
plars now being organized in this town.
We feel sure that it will be u ~sociaole
and advantageous association, and wish
it success.
