PHoToGRAPHs OF GOLD HILL.-We are
indebted to the great Photographic ar
tist, Sutterley, of Virginia, for some
la-ge-sized Photographic views Of Gold
Hill, the finest We have yet seen. They
show the town with its rugged surround
ings, from the upper end, to far away
down Gold Canyon, with mining works,
dumps, mills, churches, and all that
sort of thing, so promiscuously crowded
into the limits Nature has prescribed,
while prominent in its commanding po-
si,ion overlooking all, is seen Fort
Homestead, and the large and handsome
new buildings and hosting works Of the
Imperial aud Empire shaft. Every resi-
dent of Gold Hill should secure n copy
of this fine picture, as Of course it be-
ing geographically correct in even the
most minute particulars, it is invalua-
BILE rs an addition to everyone's picture
gallery, or rs n souvenir Of Gold Hill.
in case we should leave it some day to
reside elsewhere. The picture is also
one of the very best we could possibly
send 10 our friends in other lands, in
order to give them n correct idea Of
where we are making Il home. Call
at Sutterly's, and see those pictures
and many others.
PIpERs' OPERA HousE-" FAzIo.-
Tho attendance at the Opera House last
evening was not very large, the seats
not being oil filed. This WAS owing,
probably, to the comparative unpopular
ity of the piece, and because many de-
ferred going until this evening, when
the great Irish sensational drama OF the
Peep o. Day Boys" will be presented.
Mrs. Bowers, as Blanca, last evening,
was, as usual, effective, natural, and
true to her established reputation as the
best American actress on the stage.
Mr.. McCullom's Fazio was excellent,
and Aldabella was fairly rendered by
Miss Rose Rand. Among the fine pieces
of music performed by the orchestra
was the grand overture Of the "Caliph
| Of Bagdad," one Of the finest pieces Of
instrumental music we ever listened to.
1t is not exactly new, and that was not
the first time we ever heard it, but 1t
certainly was splendidly performed, and
always sounds acceptable. Everybody
will have to go and sec the great sensa-
ton tonight, the "Peep o. Day Boys"
Secure your seats in good season., as
there is sure to be a great rush and con-
sequent crowded house.
A RApp AT LAGER BEER.-As will be
seen by published manifesto among the
advertisements under the head of "New
To-day" our old friend and fellow
Christian, Matt Rapp, of the we'll known
Philadelphia Brewery, has bought out
his partner, Henne, and will hereafter
run the machine alone, continuing, as
heretofore, to furnish the best lager in
the State, by the bottle, gallon, quart
or key. Good cool lager is a most ex-
cellent beverage, especially in hot
weather, and il the Good Templars
would use it instead Of cold water rs
their standard beverage, strictly pro-
bibiting all other stimulatiye tonics,
their numbers would very largely and
rapidly increase. There would also be
less backslidiug and no drunkenness, rs
Philadelphia lager never intoxicates.
OvERxAS OFFICERS ELEcr.-The Over
man Mining Company held an election
Of officers for the ensuing year day
before yesterday at San Francisco, re-
sulting as follows: Trustees, j. +. de Ia
Montague, John Slime, John johnson,
James Paul and Peter Duncan f; Presi-
dent, ]. Z. de la Montagnie; Superin-
tenden., II. V. S. Mccullough ; Secre-
,ary, = Owens. We sincerely con.
pratulate the stockholders on this re-
election of Mr.. Mccullough as Superin-
teudent. His administration has given
excellent satisfaction, and we doubt not
that the affairs Of the Company will be
as we'll managed hereafter by him rs
they have heretofore.
