RsvEILLs DIsrHIcr.-Late on Friday
might, N. L. Yager, formerly County
Clerk of Washoe county, and N h
Goodwin, reached Hamilton from Rev
ellie. We have read in some old work
that once on time, worthy man IN
Willingly entertained angels. The com.
ing of this pair makes history repeat
itself in a measure, as we found out,
! upon investigation, that we were enter
tanning millionaires though from their
personal appearance, no being under
the sun would suspect them of posses
sing much chloride. But, fortunately:
they brought the proofs with them, in
the shape of specimens from their new
mine in Reveille. They brought in
some $50 or 800 pounds Of ore, and an
average specimen, assayed yesterday,
yielded a return of So ,95l 10 per ton.
The ore is very similar to first class
Eberhardt in appearance. The boys
have taken up a series of FIVE Lodges,
and from the slight developments made
feel sanguine of future fortunes. They
describe the district as inhabited by
some IS or 80 working men ; few of
whom have lived there for two or three
years, taking, occasionally, a load of
ore to Belmont to get expense money.
The boys believe their mine, or series
of mines rather, equal to anything on
Treasure Hill, excepting, perhaps, the
incompatible Eberhardt. They describe
the country as pleasant to live in,
good deal lower in altitude than this
district, with plenty of fuel, and, a
short distance off, plenty of water. The
boys believe this district is not yet half
prospected and that, for parties desir-
ing to purchase good mines, at reasona-
BILE rates, with titles undoubted and IN
incumbered, there is not another such
place as Reveille.. By the way, their
claims are not just now for sale. The
district is about 100 miles southwest of
Hamilton, and the mineral belt is de
scribed as about four miles by six. We

ALI KINDS OF WEATHER.-Our cli-

treat taem to all kinds. The Sacra-
mento Record, 10th instant, says:
After journeying over the alkali
plains of Utah and the desert, unin-
habited regions separating California
from the fruitful plains of Southern
Utah, the last green spot upon which
the eyes of our overland visitors rest
until they reach the confines of this
State, they naturally become weary of
mountainous condition to which they
are subjected, and gladly welcome any
change. Overland passengers yester'
day were treated to an unusual variety
of climate changes. Parched and
weary from the transit, at the Truckee
they were greeted by . heavy rain
storm and good sized hail. On the
summit they enjoyed respectable snow
storm, and within a few miles there
from they entered upon a climate
which has received unqualified praise
from all who have tested it.

JUsr previous to the Fourth of July
celebration in San Francisco the militia
we're making grand preparations for q
display in line on " the day We ce'e
bra,e The question of allowing the
co!ored military and civic societies
in tue procession was brought up AMI
by the application of "pressure il
was decided that the Constitution as il
was, contained no clause prohibiting
coIored men from observing tho ma
tional birth day" This was fear
full blow for certain officers of the
militia, aud they straightway went to
their commanding General, in several
cases contrary ts the expressed wishes
of their men, and asked him to parade
their brigade anywhere except in San
Francisco. As the limits of the bri-
gade include several neighboring cities,
and as pressing invitation had been
received to parade in Oakland, the
General assented to the request of his
officers and accepted the Invitation.
A change came DER the spirit Of
their dreams. The colored people in
mass meeting voted the procession q
copper-head turnout, and decided that
IL would disgrace them to be seen in
such company. When the officers
found that the niggers wouldn't as
sociate With them, they then wanted
to parade in San Francisco. The
commanding General would not coun-I
termand his order, and the result was
on the part of several
Of the companies. A little wholesome
military discipline is much needed

WAS 1T KARR THE MURDERER ?-Con-

to trace up the murderer Karr, returned
here yesterday morning without bis

he gives US, Karr was discovered at the

and was assured by return dispatch
that the first would be sent at once, and
the requisition would be forwarded as
soon as the matter could be laid before
the Governor, who was then at Carson.
