CORRESPONDENTS.

CANON CITY, Nov 10, 1870.
EDITOR TRINITY JOURNAL Thinking that a
few items from this section of our county might
not prove altogether uninteresting, avail my
self of this OPPORTUNITY of giving you few
facts and figures about our mines and style of
mining.
D. McElduf is drifting on what is known as
Hykes Hill and is making from So to $50 per
day. Chas. Wilson, still above, makes good
wages, and has his own water. Hugh Mcintyre
has struck it again and is now making $l7 per
day. Great improvements are going on here
this Fall. There will be eight hydraulics run
ming on Red Flat the coming Winter each of
them have from l45 to 200 feet pressure. How
is that for high? Among the good claims, will
mention those of Morse & CO., G. Dannenbrink,
Mr.. Berger and S. Obermeyer. II. G. Wilt has
nearly completed 900 feet of iron pipe and will
soon be ready for water. Soldier Mitchell is
drifting and makes So per day, on the lower end
of Red Flat. Hard Scrabble Bar just below Nc
Giliyray's dam, is turning out rich. John
Franklin has struck good thing opposite the
Scrabble boys. Justice Flowers Co. have put
their ditch in thorough repair for the Winter
There came near being serious accident here
on Friday. As Mr.. Driver was coming from
Weaver, accompanied by Miss O'Neil, in attempt
iRg to cross bridge at the lower end of Rcd
Flat, the wagon broke through throwing Miss
O'Neil to the ground, distance of ten feet. |
am pleased to learn that the young lady sustained
serious injury, but Johnny fell with such force
as to render him perfectly sensible Cor two con-
secutive minutes.
The boys are having fine times after game.
How delightful it must be to tramp over the
mountains all day and bring in deer as the re-
suit of one S labor, but how sad and detected
some men will look when they happen to lose a
dear. X

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

A REMARKABLE CURE.-About two weeks since
DR.. G. Jordan of San Francisco, came to our
town with the intention of giving series OF
lectures upon Phrenology and kindred subjects.
Our people, not being particularly interested IN
the sciences, did not turn out very well ana the
lectures were abandoned. But lecturing is not
all the Doctor is good at. As most of our citi-
zens know, Master Frank G. Norcross, who has
been an employee of this office for the past two
wears, has been afflicted fer many years with
stammering to a remarkable degree, and the
habit abpearedto grow upon him daily. Frank
had tried his best to overcome it, but with ill
sucess In conversation with Mr.. o. II. p. Nor
eross,-the boys father-Dr. Jordan insisted
that he could cure stammerng, in a very short
time. Mr.. Norcross was rather ncredulous, but
being willing to try anything tnat even had a
tendency to improve his boys speech, immedi-
ately placed him under the Doctors care. I'M
provement was noticeable from the very first,
and at the end of twelve days the Doctor turned
him over, almost entirely cured. Of course, the
boy stammers occasionally yet, but we have DR..
Jordan's word for it that this will wear off in a
very few weeks; he says Frank is bound to i'm
,prove-that he cannot go back. If such is the
.case-and we believe it is-we consider this a
remarkable care. The Doctor claims that he
uses a method entirely original with himself and
that no other person in the United States can
cure stammerng he does. Be this as it may
he has been successful in the instance mentioned
Mr.. Norcross says he is more than satisfied with
the Improvement made.

PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SCHooLs.-Rather unex-
pectedy the Trustees of Weaverville School Dis
trict have given notice that both branches of the
Public Schools will close to-day friday. The
probabilities are that there will be no more Pub
lie School until sometime next Spring, and, as
every one knows, long vacations are great set
back to scholars. However, in this emergency,
comes Miss Villa Harvey, teacher of the Primary
Department, who proposes opening private
school at this place, commencing Monday, Nov
2Sth. The Trustees have kindly rendered her
the use of either school-house she may choose.
From what we can learn, Miss Harvey has given
general satisfaction since assuming charge of the
Primary School scholars like her, and parents
are elated by the progress made by their children.
Parents will bear in. mind that in the Private
School about to be started, she will teach schol-
ars of all grades and in the same branches which
they have been studying heretofore. For fur
ther particulars, terms, ETC., enquire of Miss
Villa Harvey, teacher.

LOUIS RAAB visited our Office one day this
week and we were heartily glad to see him. He
reports the miners in the neighborhood of juno

the pioneer business men of our county and says
he intends to remain few years longer for the
purpose of giving the people in that section an
opportunity of purchasing goods at a reasonable
rate. We have known Louis a long time, had
considerable business to do with him and can
recommend him to the public as man worthy
of patronage.

finding out all that is going on in town, and
running his notes into " local song" which

A NUMBER of young ladies and gentlemen of
Eureka, Humboldt county, are preparing to give
vocal and dramatic entertainment at that
place on Thanksgiving evening. We are almost
tempted to propose that the young folks of Wea-
verville try and get up something of this kind
for the approaching holidays. Rehearsals for
such entertainment would be pleasant pass
time for the long Winter evenings. But, of
course, our young ladies are too modest to ap-
pear in public, and our young men-we pity
them-too bashful. Such is not the case in 9TH
