PIpEa's OpEnA HoUsE-THE MIy.

PIPEa's OPERA HousE-THE Mn
srRELs.-The California Minstrels had u
very fattering reception on the occasion
of their first appearance at Piper's OPP
era House, last evening, the audience
being an immense one, and greeting
their efforts to please with hearty
and judiciously bestowed applause
throughout. Their entertainment con-
sisted of the usual first part, which was
replete with the most excellent music,
both vocal and instrumental, besides
plenty of very good jokes and With
cisms. The balance Of the perform
ance consisted Of song, dance, and gen.
eral delineations, principally Ethiopian.
There are thirteen Of the Minstrels, and
all appeared in the first part, genteelly
arrayed in black dress coats and white
pants and vests. assuming the high
toned.darkey role. The singing Of Nor
man and Bamford was among the finest
we ever heard, and Bamford, with his
rich, clear ~falset,o voice, most certainly
is n popularity in that line. His oper-
attic scena was perfectly killing. The
double clog-dance Of Sands and Ash
croft wns never before equaled on that
stage. Johnny Mack and Johnny De-
Angels are the two s'end men," and
George Goes the " middle man." in the
first part. Goes banjo solo last even
ing was excellent, and his songs we'll
received. We would advise all those
who failed in securing eligible seats last
evening to try and be on hand in good
time this evening. No extra charge for
reserved seats.
S~prTERLxY's PHOTOGRAPHS. - The
name Of Colonel Glen. Sutterlcy as
connected with the production Of the
very bes, Photographic likenesses OF
everybody, has become famous through
out the land. Determined to keep pace
with the times and give every one u
chance to "see themselves as others see
them," General Sutterley has reduced
the prices of his photographs to one
half his former rates. A few days ago
we made special mention Of those
splendid views Of Gold Hill-the best
ever taken-which can be obtained only
ct the headquarters of Lieutenant Col
onel Sutterley. All Gold Killers should
possess n copy OF this fine picture. At
the present rates everybody can afford
to have one, also to have two or three
dozen copies of their W physiog made
TO send abroad to their friends, or TO
supply the albums of their young lady
friends hereabouts. Call at Fort SUIT
terley, see the numerous stereoscopic
Pacific Railroad, Mammoth Cave, Com
stock mining and other fine views, and
be treated kindly by Brigadier Major
General Sutterley himself.
Mill MACHINERY. = The mortars,
stamps, dies, cams, gearing, and all
other requisite machinery for the new
mill Of the Sierra Nevada Company, was
yesterday completed NJ McCone's Ne
vada Foundry, Silver City, and will be
shipped to-day for the scene Of action
where it belongs. This mill, it will be
recollected, is intended for u twenty
stamp mill, to run on ore from the
Sierra Nevada mine exclusively. A large
amount of rich collaborating ore has re-
Gently been developed in this mine which
will pay from ten to forty dollars per
ton, and over fifteen hundred tons of it
are out ready for milling. The new mill
will be erected inside Of the hosting
works building of the company, and in
a very short time will be pounding away
ut this good ore. The chances are that
the Sierra Nevada mine will be yielding
big bricks of gold bullion and dividends
to stockholders before many months.
WooD FOR the MILLION. - 10 the
course Of eight or ten days, Waugeu-
helm & Co. will bring down the Carson
river n drive of wood consisting Of
about 8 5000 cords, from the neighoor-
hood of Silver Mountain. The wood
will be aoated down to Empire City, and
there hoisted out BY a steam engine.
This is an unusually large amount for
II seasonal least IL 900 cords more
than was ever driven beforehand will
revive the business life OF the little
village amazingly, and be q great relief
to the mills on the Carson and those
nearer tie mines.
