THE new mines beyond Loon

Wentworth, formerly of this place,
and more recently of Idaho City,
who has been there. writes from Loon
creek. under date of Oct. Sd. as
follows -

there now, but think there will not
be ten in month. | went in with
a crowd of $40. We stopped two
days before we got there and drew
lots for claims. | got No. sc above

mining done on the stream seven or
eight miles above, but saw one of
the men and he says they could not
get more than two or three dollars a
day. | regard the Yellow jacket a
failure unless something better than

had formed a company to run a
bedrock drain and cut across in order
to prospect and may strike something
better. The creek resembles More'a

We have received the Daily Oma-

nual poster, containing counting
house almanac, map of the Pacific
railroad route, etc. The Republican
is large thirty-six column paper ;
unlike many mammoth sheets, it is
keenly alive to everything going on
in the country, and cuts with sharp

THE Sutro Tunnel, of which SO
much has been said and written, has
at length broken ground ; on a very
small capital it is true, but tall oaks
from little acorns grow, and this
cloud, no larger than mans hand,
may yet revolutionize the whole
mining system of Nevada and the
whole coast.

TBE editor Of the Avalanche IL
getting one Of his sristocratic spells
on him again. The WAVE appears
TO set heavy on his stomach and he
would fain escape the wholesome
facts 1t publishes by holding his
head above the vulgar herd Of bull |
whackers, from whom the WAVE is
not too proud to gather information.
Ills last dodge is to hold.up Thos.
n. Bugbee at least his equal
in mental, moral and physical stat
ure as unworthy TO associate with
The intelligent farmers and stock
raisers OF Texas. In fact, that those
chivslrous Texans would disdain to
speak with low born Yankee cattle
drover, like Mr.. Bugbee, and that
therefore Mr.. Bugbee's assertions as
given 10 the editor OF the WAVE on
his return are false.
Another favorite escape of the
Avalanche from disagreeable fact
is to accuse the editor of the WAVE
of having no kindly feelings towards
the Southern people, when nothing
could be further from the truth. The
editor Of the WAVE owes his exist
ence to Southern parents, and all his
earlier and happier reeollections of
a lifetime, now well advanced, are
due to Southern associations, never
having but once, before coming 10
Idaho, travelled so far north as the
home Of the Avalanche man, on the
line OF Iowa aud Missouri, and it is
not very natural conclusion that
he should not cherish the memory
of those early years, remember his
own origin and glory in the glories
Of the South. We feel pronder tot
day Of one loyal and patriotic South
erner who has stood by the flag of
his country than ola score OF North
ern men who have had no induce
ments TO go astray.
The trouble with the Avalanche
man appears to be that fate has
thrown him among plebeans, where
as God, in creating him in bis own
beautiful image, intended him for Q
higher sphere and more aristocratiC
life, while we, belonging to class
known in the South as "poor whit
irash,r are content with the humble
existence, plain life and plain peopl
with which Providence has chosel
to surround us.
As an example of how an aristo
cratic gentleman feels towards on
whose circumstances or aspiration
lead him no higher than to be
common tcamster, we clip the TO
lowing paragraph from Saturday
Avalanche, which it is perhaps neec
less to say was written and publisl
ed to prove that Tom Bugbee di

QUITE a number of the Bishops
and other clergy Of the Catholic
Church are preparing to leave for
the Ecumenical Council at Rome,
which is to be holden in December.
Archbishops Alemany, of San
Francisco, and Blanchet, of Portland,
Oregon, and Bishop Lootens, of this
Territory, are among the number.
III. Dupauloup, Bishop of Orleans in
France. it is announced, will intro
duce before the Council a measure
looking to the adoption of more
liberal spirit in the church, and that
fifty American Bishops have signi
fed an intention to support him il
his efforts at reform. Among Other
questions will be free schools, ant
liberty for priests to marry.

Mrs. STOWE promises another ar
ticle on the Byron scandal, which
will answer and silence her censors.
While there can be but little doubt
of the truth of her assertions, as
proven by the testimony of English
men of undoubted veracity, it is a
disagreeable charge that should be
allowed to slumber in the graves Of
those to whom it attaches. Where
any good is to accrue to humanity
by vindicating the truth of history
in this instance is hard to conjecture.

The editor Of the Western Vim.
dicator, published at Rutherford,
N. o., thus discourses ON "The
Fourth Of March. -: <s's7 p -
/" A auizzical friend nonplussed no
unsuspectingly one day last week,
by inquiring If we had heard Of
the extraordinary order given by
Ben Butler to the late President,
just before the latter resigned the
robes OF Office. ..''.r.
We replied that we hadn't
heard it, but would like to hear il
right off. .s.s,.a,i,,. !. .f-..,.,. -, =.

actly an order, but he cooked one
eye and whispered, March
Fourth 2 and Andy marched p. &.
We smiled a sickly, smile, and,
invited our friend to visit a place
where angels have no business; !;
but it set rs to wondering why the
4th of March was selected as the
beginning of each Presidential
term, and the closing one Of Con-
gress. ~ - .-. - H''dF .....'. g..
The popular reason assigned is,
because it rarely falls on Sunday.
But it seems to have been rather
tue result of accident than other
wise. =. .......'... -. s1' ''''' '..'
Congress in 1888, after the new
Constitution was adopted, appoint
ed the first Wednesday in Janu-
ary, 10, for the election Of Elect
ors to choose a President; the fret
Wednesday in February for them
to cast their vote /; and the first
Wednesday in March for the in,
auguration of the new govern
ment. This day happened to be
the 4th Of the month; consequent
ly, as the term of administration
was limited to four years, each
succeeding administration has be-
gun on that day. '.'.'.@.
In the better days of the Re-
public, ere the white plumed An.
gel of Peace had winged its fight
to more congcnial climes, we were
accustomed to celebrate the in
augural days of our chosen rulers
with bonfres, Examinations, mu-
sic, and good cheer all over the
land but now, like the Florida
Rebel, we don't care a continental

they have campmeeting, hang

Count four, to make four seconds
