EXCELSIOR ITEMS. - E~x-Lieutenant
Crossman was in town yesterday, look

recently returned from a short trip over

prospects Of some Of the mining compa-

mine and mill were both shut down just

They will run both mine aud mill with

mines there may be, Crossman did not
succeed in amassing any great amount
of wealth from them, and intends re-

The DEMOCRACY To-SIGHr.-Our Dem
cratic friends Of Storey and the adjoin-
ing counties are going to have the
grandest demonstration they have been
able to scare up for the last four or five
years this evening in Virginia and Gold
Hill. They have been hard at work
drumming up recruits, getting torches,
transparencies, and all sorts of things
together for several weeks past, and
have made almost s%uperhuman efforts to
get up a demonstration tonight which
shall revive the waning energies of their
sadly demoralized party. They will
show their full strength tonight. The
Republicans can afford to be m%agnani-
mously charitable toward them tonight,
and even lend them lanterns, torches
and other things to celebrate with, 1t
desired. Let the poor fellows have their
good time tonight, and enjoy it all pos
sible. To that doomed party it is like
whistling in a graveyard. Tomorrow,
scores of them will be on the stool Of
Of repentance, and in the evening they
cannot possibly resist the good influence
which will come over their returning
senses, inducing them to join the Union
ranks and march along, shoulder to
shoulder and arm in arm, with the loyal
and true who love their country and
vote for Grant and ColfaN.
