The BELcHER.-This mine is attract
ing considerable attention at the present
time, among stock dealers especially,
by reason of its excellent appearance
throughout, aud more particularly be-
tween the 300 aud 420-foot levels, south
west OF the shaft, at which point a large
body Of ore-assaying, on an average,
upwards Of 800 per TOMS said to have
been cut into. We are informed, this
morning, tina: this body is over twelve
feet wide at some points, and OF I'M
known length. If it should mill no
moro than S35 or $40 per ton it will do
very well, but the indications are good
for ore Of a higher grade than that being
developed. The little streak found near
the Segregated line has widened out
famously, and is now several feet in
width. 1t is not of quite so high a grade
as the ore in the larger body we have
mentioned, but it will pay well for mill
ing. Considerable water is encountered
in the levels below, yet not enough to

the present efficient management the
Belcher is evidently coming out" and
may pay n dividend yet. Who knows?
Snow AT TREASURE CIry.-Charley
Clark, of the well-kuown firm of Ord
way 4 Clark, South c street, Virginia,
has received a letter dated January 7,
from his partner Ordway, who is now
out at Treasure City rusticating among
the flower gardens and balmy zephyrs
of that tropical cline. Ordway says
the snow was fourteen inches deep on II
level, wherever q level off t al be found,
which is not often, and the weather was
clear and cold. Another friend of ours
out there, whose cabin happens to be
down on the hillside under II big snow
drift, writes that he has been compelled
to put u ten-foot extension on the top
of his stovepipc, and gets in and out
through q tunnel under the snow, when
he wants to weed his patch Of spring
onions and green peas. Whether the
present storm is doing any damage to
the hollyhocks and daisies about there.
remains for future correspondents to
decide.
MEAN AND HEARrLEss RoBRERY.-The
room of A. G. Hay, back Of the Express
Saloon, Gold Hill, was entered by some
degraded thief night before last and
robbed of u quantity of valuable cloth
ing. Hay lost all his shirts, under
clothing, two pairs Of pants, II vest, all
his socks, handkerchieis, boots, and
best hat. The contemplate thief made
pretty near a clean sweep Of everything.
It's "a pity but what tho sneaking scoun-
drel could have caught the smallpox,
cramp collie or some other damnable
disease in the operation. Hay desires
US to tell the fellow that if he will re-
u that vest, he will give him W bet
ter ones for it. Friend Hay is decidedly
in n bad streak Of luck at the present
time, and the thing who has nirped his
clothes is mean enough to steal soap
grease from o poor widow.
PHOENIX SALooS.-Kleine & Tobner
confidently invite all thirsty Gold Hill
ers or any other man to step into their
saloon, upper Main street, opposite
Stern & Sons store, and assay n drink
or so of their choice California and
foreign wines and liquors, or test the
superior qualities of the lager, ale and
porter always to DO found there. They
sell Wholesale and retail. Call ut tho
Phoenix Saloon.
WHERE To FIND GEoRGE.-To those
whonrc not duly posted rs to the new
whereabouts of George Hnuck, we would
say he removed, q few days ago, across
the street from his old corner TO the
popular saloon formerly occupied by
John Monahan, on Main street. George
keeps some Of rs good beverages always
on hand as are to be found in Gold Hill.

SLsIGHISG.-The sleighius ut Virginia
was excellent, this morning, and numer-
Gus parties were out enjoying it. Down
through Gold Hill there is no sleighing
whatever, owing to the heavy quartz
wagons cutting up the street. Blair is
driving a Concord coach by way OF n
bus between here and Virginia, to-day.
Tue PooR.-Now that you are in the
midst of the season of donations and
hospitality, while your latch-string is
out, don't draw the purse-string tighter
after giving to the good minister, but
