San Francisco, aud viii be occupied MS
the Grammar School, the other two be-
ing Primary and intermediate. The
new building fronts to the east, aud ia
placed ut the south side OF the lot. The
other two buildings heretofore in use
have been removed to the north side of
the new edifce. The lot would not
have been large enough To accommo-
date the three buildings, were it not
that Mr.. Huguet, owning the property
adjoining, kindly donated u strip of
land on the south side, for which he
deserves the thanks of all good men and
friends Of education. The front of the
new building will be handsomely fin
ished and painted white {; the sides will
be painted with a dark brown or fire.
proof paint similar to that on the south
Yellow Jacket works. Twelve feet Of
the front will be partitioned off for areci-
tation room and two hat and cloak
rooms, one for the boys and the other
for the girls. Wide folding doors will
form the front entrance, opening into a
hall between the rooms just mentioned,
the other end Of this hall way opening
with folding doors Immediately into the
schoolroom. The public school build

v~enient position in the lower portion Of
the town, and when the new edi6ce is
completed, it, together with its accom-
. panying buildings beside it, will be
among the most ornamental rs we'll rs
useful features of our gulch sequestered
town.
DEMOCRATIC MEETiNG.-The Demo-
Gratis of Gold Hill held quite a large
aud respectable meeting at Theater Hall
last evening. Hal. Clayton, Esq, led
OIL in II speech of an hour and y half,
which was we'll received by the audi
encc. Ii was the best Democratic speech
We have listened to during the campaign
and shows that Clayton can make u
pretty good speech since he became a
Good Templar and Church Elder. But
like most Democratic speeches, it was
very wild and bewildered on the subject
of the National debt, the currency, the
suffrage question, and the "Constitu-
tionsl rights of the late rebellious
States.r However, his d" facts aud hg-
ures' took very well with his audience
very few of them knowing any better.
Taking it all in all, Clayton made II
good speech-tor is Kind. Judge Humid
ley also made n few remarks, and n
Democratic missionary from California,
named Col. Holt or Colt, who had just
arrived on the stages from Reno, wound
up the meeting by n brief address.
GRAND RALLY At SILvER.-The loyal
population Of Silver City and vicinity
had a glorious time last evening. \
goodly delegation from Dayton came up
in two crowded coaches, many from
Gold Hill were present, and the famous
Grent Glee Club from Virginia were
also in attendance, making about
twenty, and enliveued the occasion with
seine Of their choicest and most stirring
campaign songs. A mass meeting was
held ir Armory Hall, which was packed
to its utmost capacity numerous ladies
were among the audience. The meeting
WAS addressed by Hon. Thos. Fitch, in
one of his very happicst efforts, followed
by an eloquent. stirring speech from
Judge Will Campbell. The remarks Of
the orators were enthusiastically re-
ceiyed, and the meeting closed with
hearty cheers for Grant and Colfax, the
old flag, etc. Silver City, ever loyal
and true to the nation, never tried and
found wanting she will add another
broad bright mark to her proud record
m the third of November.
CuIARryI's CIRcUs.-The Royal ltal-
ian Circus vas again tho great point OF
attraction last evening, the seats within
the huge pavilion being well crowded.
We are pleased to see this really first
class circus so well p~atronized. Its ex-
penses in our midst are enormous, and
unless it is very literally ~pstronized 1t
will prove q losing institution. TIE
board bills for the army Of artists, alta
chcs, horses, printing bills, n the
thousand and one other expenses OF
such an expensive establishment amount
to u larger sum than would he imagined
by any one not conyersant. II is n mis-
take to suppose that they carry their
own cook-stoye, groceries, hay and
grain along with them, and all hands,
horses and all, board and lodge inside
of the circus tent. There was n total
change of programme las. evening, and
any number of new features will be
introduced this evening. Go and see
the fun. Only two nights more, and
the circus leaves for Washoe. Matinee
Saturday afternoon.
A LErrER.-We saw II man from
American Flat get II letter from the
Gold Hill Postofice q day or W ago.
1t was a heavy, thick letter, and looked,
on first sight, as though it might be
stuffed with g~reeubacks. He opened it
carefully, and with eager eyes watched
its contents rs he withdrew them from
the envelope. We had our eye en- him
but what II change came over him as
he looked at his prize! Two copies Of a
small yellow-covered pamphlet, on the
subject of '',Impotence or Virility," by
DR.. Doherty! The man from American
Flat dropped the startling missivcs, and
going back to the Postofice window, he
remarked that there must be n mistake
doctor Doherty could no possibly be
acquainted with him-uot much-ns he
had a house full of children ! Ergo, the
Doctor should discrimina, to n little bet
ter as to who he sends his books to.
