GoNE FRoM OUR GAzE.-Captain H.

NJ. NeSey n Il. v. blancnard, whose
faces and modest department have
been as familiar to people in Gold Hill
as the sides Of Mount Davidson, have
gone from our gaze and departed for
the land of White Pine. They left this
morning in a t~wo-horse spring wagon,
and were well iNd and supplied for the
journey-(we will not undertake to
enumerats the inventory Of the sup.
plies, but it was what Hank Blanchard
would and did call "bully." They
went.down the canyon to Dayton, and
from thence out on the old emigrant
road to Ragtown, and on to Austin.
These gentlemen are both old residents
Of Gold Hill, and both having made
money enough, they seem DESTROYS of
changing their field of operations, as
this country is getting too thickly
settled for them, and churches. school,
houses, the arts, sciences, and refine
ments Of society, are all getting to be
too much for them. They want to
move where there is less of such kind
Of nonsense-so to speak-and they
have betaken themselves to the wilder
ness. Good luck to both of them, is
the universal wish of their friends in
Gold Hill.
WHITE PINE IrEMs.-A private letter
just received by us under date of March
18th from Jack White, at Treasure City,
White Pine, contains the following
items "Messrs. Ayers & Putnam have
mol decided on the town in which thoir
Inland Empire will be published yet.
Cassidy & CHM have their Office on Main
street, two doors south of Forbes Bureau
saloon. At least 2 800 men have visited
the Base Metal Range, on the second
summit, about three miles northwest of
here, to see some very rich rock found
there a few days since, which assays
from $500 to $1,000 per ton. The en-
citement has been so great that Il town
site has been staked of, and "Green-,
Vile" is the new rival Of Treasure City,
and like it, occupies an airy station on
the brow OF q picturesque hill, with no
water nor the promise of any soon, I'M
less Won Schmidt comes along. 1t will
W all its Importance to the mines in
its immediate vicinity. Treasure City
reminds one of n town besieged, all
kinds Of rock flying in every direction
and u noise like the incessant discharge
Of artillery, ali day long.
"GARDES SASS" AT WHITE PtSE.-
A lady friend writing from Hamilton
says they have plenty of lettuce and
radishes out there, but no green peas as
yet. Spring onions and chick-weed
flourish, also dandelions and other
greens. Celery is not very high, but
those most interested have strong hopes
Of q good raise. Flours of all varieties
arc high, and easily raised without
yeast. Sweet Williams are beginning
to bloom, and Msrigolds, Suapdragons,
ginger snaps and soft snaps are abund-
ant. Bachelors Buttons are scattered
about loose. 1t is a poor climate for
Hearts Ease, but Golden Rod never
fourished better. B~lack-eyed Susnns,
Gentle Armies, Roses and Tiger Lilly
are becoming plenty and much sought
after ; no China Asters as yet. Tanzy
is abundant with a pressing demand for
it. The markets are all glutted with
cabbage heads and dead beats, all wait
ing for a good "turn-up."
FESTIVAL BALL.-0n Thursday even
ing next the ladies conducting the ex-
cellent Festival now progressing so
admirably at Theater Hall, Gold Hill,
will give a social'ball as a wind-up to
the aforesaid popular Festival. 1t will
take place at the hall, and the ladies
have appointed j. McMartiu, Esq, ofthis
town, as General Director to manage
this pleasing arrangement for them.
They will, however, supervise and pre-
side over the supper table, furnishing a
bountiful repast to all who choose to
par,sks at 81 each. The tickets to the
ball will also be 81, making only 81 for
tho best social terpsichorean party given
this season. See advertisement.
SMALLPOX DIsAPrEARING.-There are
now no more cases o. smallpox in
Gold Hill-nous at all. jeff. McClel-
Ian is out again to-day his was only n
mild case of varioloid. At Virginia
there are not over a dozen cases in all
remaining, and these are fast recover
ing. None at all in Silver City. The
present extremely pleasant, salubrlous
sprinc weather is evidently exercising q
healthy and desirable effect in Kidding
us of the foul pestilencc which has so
long bafled the skill aud sanitary pre-
cautions of both medical men and town
authorities. Good radiance TO it.
The JULIA Observation-Disclosures work
is being done toward the development
Of this " outside &" mine, situated about
half n mile east OF the Comstock, near
the tunnel of the Tunnel Toll Road at
the present time. About II dozen men
are employed and n horse whim is used
in hosting. The shaft is $50 feet deep,
and near the bottom Of it two drifts,
one east and the other west, are being
run in order to tap two lodges claimed
by the company, which have already
been demonstrated to contain consider
able quantities Of pay ore.
