heavy ten-mule team loaded with
quartz. They were stopped in rather \
tough, miry place, to get their wind for
another pull Just then the teamster,
who was rather Of the milk and water,
conscientious scruple sort, mouated on
the near wheeler, jerked his line u few
times, cracked his whip like i pistol
aud shouted "Giti What in thunder
you doin' on? Jim I! JEFF! Bet ! Git !
Confound yer old tripe,, il yer don't
start that I'll bust yer wide open!'
Directly after this team got through,
another Just like it came along, but
with n different driver. When he got
ready to start up like the other one, he
wsxed so exceedingly profane after the
line,jerking and whip-cracking prelImi'
nary that we feel constrained to render
it rs follows: I" You! Jack. Whoarp
thar Tom. Tophet FIRE and condemun-
ton God blast yer internal cussed
hearts, what in tophet We bout? Cou-
denim yer liver, Jip tophet roast yer
old carkis. Sal you condemned old sol
OF a jackass, git out o this Ibefore
murder yer. Git condemn yer, git :!
Tho mules in each case "came down TO
their work" we'll al the inspiring words
of their drivers, and took the loads right
along. Mules ARE not dumb fools they
appreciate energetic talk and persuasive
.whip-craekiug, aud never fail to respond
while they have muscle to do it on.
RESUMED OpxRArroSs,-The Birdsall
Mill, Dayton, which has been idle for
some two weeks, started up on Tuesday
ON ore from the Occidental mine. For
nearly three weeks the roads were so
bad that but little ore could be brought
from tho mine, then when the ore came
the dam broke, and extensive repairs
were found TO be necessary before "
supply Of water could be procured (;
now, however, everything is in good
shane, and the mill starts up with every
u~rospec, of doing II big month'S work.
They now have on hand an accumula-
ton of between l,400 aud l,50O tons of
Occidental ore, and unless u severe
storm should occur, the mill will be
kept constantly going to its Utmost ca
paeity for the next six weeks, or until
spring. Owing to this mill trouble, the
produc, Of the Occidental for the pres
ent month will be lighter than usual,
but next month it will come up TO the
old figures.

D-.-.tr -., al. .,tr,-ftAn ~ thu npnFl
House last evening, but it did not draw
\ very crowded audience. Miss Vest
ern AS the subtle, passionate, scheminS
and poisou-dosing Lucrexia, personated
the character eScellently well, aud she
was very fairly sustained by the rest of
the talented company, Mr.. Herne per-
sonating "Geunaro" creditahly, as did
also Harrison the Duke De Este. y
This evening Mr.. Herne takes II benefit,
on which occasion two new pieces will

GRANGE OF RoUrE.-Mr. Sides, the

stage route will soon be changed from
its eircuitous way through Austin and
Salt Lake, to II more direct commuui-
cation between the two rapidly ap.
preaching ends of the great Continental
railroad. This will shorten the travel
ing time very materially, rs the distance
for staging will thus be reduced to about
200 miles.
