SUDDEN DISAPPEARANCE OF c. DoRwIS BANKER
HE TURNS UP IN THIS COUNTY, But DOES NOT
WAIT TO BE ARRESTED.
About four O'Clock on the morning of Mon
day, the 18th inst, Mr.. S. b. Sibley Of Mil
ton, IN this county, was aroused by violent
rapping and on arising he found two men at his
door who desired to warm themselves and re-
pair their sleigh. They were on their way to
Essex Junction, as they said and had lost their
way While the driver young man--was
hending the sleigh, his companion, who was an
elderly gentleman, appeared to be very anxious
ami uneasy, and when, after breakfast, the
young man announced that it would be impossi-
bic for him to 60 further with his sleigh but
that be must return home, to Rouses Point,
the best way he could, the old man objected
earnestly and would not let him 20 unless Mr.
o.bley would agree to take him to Hinesburgh.

the Rouses Point driver meanwhile starting on
his return. On their way, and while near Hines

close questioning, finally informed Mr.. Sbey
that his name was Dorwin that he had left
Montreal suddenly, where divers bankers and
other parties were " OUT on his account some
500, 600 that he had intended to 90 to his
relatives in Hinesburgh but would rather
turn back if Mr.. S. would agree to keep him
concealed in his house till the affair blew over.
To this Mr.. Sibley did not agree but took hun

lives, of the same name there after which he
considered it his duty to come to this city and
INFORM officer Flanagan Of the transaction and
lid so. Mr. Flanagan at once proceeded to
Hinesburgh, and found Mr. Dorwin there. He
seemed completely overcome by remorse for his
unfortunate and criminal transactions, and ex-
pressed a desire to make the best arrangement
he could with his creditors, and Mr. F. left him
with the advice to remain where he was and

The SAURIN CAsE.-The convent case which
has lust come to an end was under trial for 70
DAYS. and have heard the expenses Of conduct
ing il estimated at G., 1000 day as the lowest
sum. Much higher estimates are given by those
who assume to be authorities. Take the moder-
ate figure. and the costs are not less than go
900. The plaintiff, Miss Saurin,) claimed to'-
600 damages-the jury gave her toOO Onclu-
ding $500, her own dowry, to be returned to
herr At first the sympathies Of the public were
strongly with Miss Saurin, but atterly only the
groundlings - remained faithful to her. 70
man Catholics think that the cause was very
fairly tried, and it is to be observed that not one
of the barristers engaged in it said single word
which could be painful to the feelings Of any
Romapist. The verdict of the jury does not
carry costs. and Miss Saurin will have an enor-
nous bill to pay.-LoRdoH Cor. N Y. Times.
1t would seem from the above that cur CORES
popdent. P. L in his communication of the 18th
inst, was mistaken in supposing that favor
able verdict in an English court always carried
costs. Our statement that the $500 awarded
would probably pay tenth part Of Miss Saurin s
costs was made from private information. The
figures, indeed, were placed much higher, but
they seemed to us exaggerated. 1t turns out,
however, that the sum total is much higher than
any amount then estimated.

and thanking those present for their attendance,
remarked that he thought the sentiment had al

tbs White Pine Country.
GREAT DISCOVERIES OF SILVER.

All at once a region of country in the heart o
the new State of Nevada has risen into great i'm
portanee. This regi.n is known as the "hlb
Pine district, and in territorial extent IS aoou
one-ffth larger than the District Of Columbia
5 1t is remote from civilization it is rugged az
# glomeration of mountains rising from six thou
= sand to eleven thousand feet above the level O
D the sea it is very cold in the winter season
and but few of the comforts Of life are to be foun,
. there but it is at this moment the point @
I supreme attraction. The lolestone is an mex
T haustible lode Of silver.
The rush of adventurers to this region is sal,
2 to be altogether unexamplel, and the account
e warrant the belief that nothing so rich as tn
White Pine Silver Mines has ever been found
For hundreds Of years the flow Of silver coii
has been setting in one steady current from tn
western nations to China, with no retiring ebb
until the Celestial Empire has become one vas
storehouse of silver guiliers, thalers, carollse.
and pistareens. But if the representations mad,
are true, ages before commerce had begun piling
up the worlds treasure at the worlds end, Ma
ture had selected the mountains of Nevada fol
her depository.
The report of R. ". Raymond on the g Min
eral Resources of the States and Territories,
made to Secretary Of the Treasury and just
printed, gives us some most interesting facts and
figures concerning the White Pine silver re-
gion.
There are many mines in operation there.
more than fifty mining companies having been
organized in San Francisco alone for working
them, and Of every one the story reads like ID
fairy tale. Discovered only eighteen month,
| ago, the light has as yet hardly broken in upon
the richest veins. Yet $4,000 a ton is not an
extravagant yield, and We are prepared To be-
ieve anything that may be said Of the result,
| hereafter.
Here is the keystone Nine, for instance. A
mere lad, John Turner. one Of the party that
originally explored it, struck his pick into
what seemed to be led Of putty, but what
proved to be pure chloride Of silver, worth from
$4,000 to $4,000 ton Even the correct
and sober style of Mr.. Raymond, writing official
= and pr0saically to the Secretary of the Tre,-
sury, breaks out INTO a certain luminous p1e;r.
as he enters the GIVE of Ahiun, otherwise
known as the E,erharl; Mine. descending
tue shaft on a rope says he. eve found our
selves among men engaged in breaking down
silver by the ton. The light Of our candles dis
closed great black sparkling masses Of slye.
ore on every side. The walls were silver, ID.

Of arms and performed various evolutions and
wheelings on Main street previous to their join

crowd Of spectators, who were much edited by
their ine soldierly appearance. We would also
especially mention the fine music discoursed by
the Charlotte and Jericho Bands, whose mem
bers throughout the day, though their duties
were most ar1uous, fully sustained their well-es-
tablishel reputation as musicians also the ex-
cellent singing Of ST. Mlry's choir, which was Of
a high order, and which reflected credit upon the
members and upon Mr. lillian H. Hoyt, under
whose instruction they have attained such pro

The WEAvERvILLR CEMETERY.-The condition
OF the Weavervlle cemetery should receive the
attention of our citizens. Originally laid out and
enclosed by private subscriptions, and belong
Ing to the public generally, no attempt has been
made to beautify the grounds, and there is no
one having .hem particularly in charge The
soil becomes so parched and dry in summer that
flowers and shrubbcry planted over graves can
not live unless irrigated, which at present can
only be done by carrying water in buckets for
easily irrigated at moderate expense, and
we see no difficulty in providing, in addition for
their being suitably ornamented and cared for.
Many persons have been brought from outside
localities for interment in our burying ground
whose friends and relatives would gladly con-
tribute toward the necessary expenses for this
purpose. The people of Weaverville should feel
deep interest in this subject one appealing to
their public spirit, besides being aquestion of
spect and affection toward the dear departed As
far back as tradition extends mankind has ever
found II melancholy pleasure in guarding and
commemoratng the last resting place of the
loved and lost. We believe it is only necessary
for our people to have this subject brought to
their notice Perhaps the most good can be ac-
complished by prblished notice of meeting
TO all persons feeling interested, giving time for
all such to attend. We think some organization
can be made and that it ought to be done
