ceived. 1t is from the claim of the
Rothschild & Morning Light Company,
and an assay of it just made by Ruhlng
& Co. gives q yield per ton Of silver,
Sl22 40; gold, So 50; total, Sl24 90.
this good ore was only taken from the
depth of FIVE or six feet below the sur
face, being merely groupings" we
may say. There is any amount of
similar ore and plenty even better, the
claim Of the company embracing two
series Of lodges, viz /: the Rothschild
series, of FIVE lodges, averaging seven
feet in width, and the Morning Light
series, of three lodges, averaging ten
feet. These lodges all run parallel with
each other, in u direction NNE. and
SSW. and have been prospected to n
sufficient depth by means of shafts and
tunnels to determine their ~permanence,
richness and general characteristics.
They will doubtless hold out to an Him
table depth, and the time is not far
distant when they will be yielding large
returns to the stockholders, as the great
railroad is now completed to a point in
close proximity TO the mines, passing
within FIVE miles Of them. By means
Of a, branch railroad the ore may be
transported to where it can be subjected
to proper treatment, with the greatest
facility. As o o as the railroad CON-
pany are prepared to transport it, q large
quantity OF ore will be shipped to San
Francisco, where furnaces for the treat
ment Of such ores are being erected,

for. The ore contains II large percent
age Of lead-enough to pay all costs of
working the ore. The proprietors are
principally residents Of that part Of the
country. These lodges are situated on
Says guleh, and within q mile and q
half of the rich mines Of the Imperial
Consolidated Company, in the same Dis
trict, of which we had an item q few days
ago. The mines Of New Truckee Dis
,rict are about sixty miles in u norther-
~ direction from here, some twenty-six
miles from Wadsworth, and thirteen
miles easterly from the lower end OF
Pyramid Lake. They were discovered
three or four years ago, and have been
more orless proSpected and worked since,
but owing to there not being any wood
or water in the district, but little could
be advantageously effected in the way Of
development, besides which the intract-
able nature of the ore, and the limited
knowledge possessed relative to the
working Of argentiferous galena ores,
has operated to keep those mines back
in waiting until the present time, when
a better understanding Of the nature Of
that ore, and increased facilities Of
transportation, induces their further de-
velopmeut. More will be heard of the
New Truckee mines before long.
MATINEE To-MoRRow.-For the special
pleasure and accommodation of ladies,
children, families and others who San
not make il convenient to attend theater
evenings, the management at Piper's
Opera House desires us to state hat u
grand matinee will be gwen at 2 P. N.
tomorrow, and the regular prices Of
admission will be reduced one half, viz:
dress circle fifty cents, parquette TWEEN
ty-fve cents. Choice selections from
the general programme will be given,
and the talented California Minstrel
Company will do their best at enter
tanning. Music, mirth and jollity will
reign supreme; everybody will highly
enjoy what they see and hear, and 60
home we'll pleased and happy.
ASHE.BASG.-At q certain little fe-
male "shebang" on South c street,
Virginia, about I o'clock this morning,
q drunken old sinner Of q man was
being banged about beautifully by the
female spider whose web he had ven-
tured into. We did not ascertain what
il all meant, but she did beat him good
with her fists, he believing like a pun
meled calf all the while. Quite q crowd
collected on the sidewalk to see the fun,
and no one cared to interfere. Served
him right he'd no business in sue q
place. If he will 60 into such a She
bang as that he may expect II she-bang-
ing.
SoIREE LAST NlGHr.-The soiree OF
the Young Mems Independent Social
Union, at Athletic Hall, Virginia, last
evening, was very respectfully attended
and aparticularly pleasing time enjoyed
by all who participated. We were
present q short time, but certainly were
very kindly treated while there. The
entire proceeds were appropriated to the
assistance Of o needy widow. This is
their frs. soiree, and in consideration OF
its worthy object we sincerely hope that
all their future soirees may be even
more successful than was this one.
AMOUNT OF DAMAGE.-Chief Wilcox,
of the Virginia Fire Department, in
forms US that the appraisers appointed
by the insurance company, in the mat
ter Of the fire at W~ittkowsky's clothing
store on B street last Monday morning,
gave in their decision yesterday estima-
ting the loss and damage BY fire and
water at S9,Sll. The stock was insur-
ed for Sc, 800. Thus it will be seen,
that by having the f~orethought to in
sure, Mr.. Wittkowsky's loss amounts to
but little. So much for the benefits OF
insurance.
