says: Robert Slater. man in the en-
ploy Of Cottle &,Visher, near Empire
City, Stanislaus county, while assisting
in drawing water from we'll seventy
feet deep, fell into the we'll and was
instantly killed, on the 9Th instant.
Water Is drawn from the we'll in a
twenty-five gallon cask, weighing
probably when full, at least 300
pounds, and raised by a horse. The
bucket had reached the surface, and
he had taken hold Of it-one hand ut
the top and the other at the bottom
to swing it to one side and land it on
the side of the curb, when the rope
broke and let the bucket back, taking
him with it. As soon rs possible n
man was lowered into the we'll. who
extricated Slater from the debris Of
fallen wall and from beneath the
bucket. which had fallen on top Of
him. 1t was evident that death must
have been instantaneous, as his skull
was crushed, his neck broken, one
arm broken and his body literally

sorry to see, however, in the reports Of
subsequent proceedings IN the House
that this just and altogether needful ap-
preparation has been stricken from the
Bill. We still hope that when it reaches
the Senate it will be SO amended as to
insure the final adoption Of the amend
mens as proposed and advocated by Mr..
Fitch-to whom the thanks of the citi.

in their behalf
P.S. The Bill passed the House all
right, if we correctly understand the
following:

RAILROAD ENTHUSIASM IN HUMBOLDT.
IN the Humboldt Register of the 26th
inst. we find a report of proceedings
had at railroad meeting held in Odd
Fellows Hall. Winnemucca, on the
evening of the 22d inst, at which the
following resolutions, which explain the
objects and action of the meeting, were
adopted
Reso1red, That North and South rail-
road, connecting the Central Pacific railroad
already constructed, and the Southern Pacific
railroad projected and in process of construc-
ton, is a necessity obvious to every man.
ID. That it is of paramount importance to
the State of Nevada, that such railroad be
built within this State.
Sd. That for the purpose Of building such
railroad public aid is public economy.
4th. That the most practicable route for
such a railroad is that which will first tap
the greatest number of available mining dis
tricts, and second, which will be aided BY the
largest subscription.
9th. That in our opinion the proposed
route commencing in Humboldt county, and
running up Reese River valley to a point
near Austin, and thence down Smokey val
ley through Nye and Lander counties, is the
most practicable route SO far as the first above
mentioned conditions are concerned.
9th. That the counties of Humboldt and
Lander should and will contribute literally
and largely to such an undertaking..
tSigned) JOHN H. BoULT,
NJ &. BoNNIrIELD.
From statements and letters which
were before the meeting we are led 20
infer that the C. P. r. R. Co. are favor
ably inclined to assist in furthering this
enterprise. Il would open large and
profitable trade to Central, Eastern and
Southern Nevada.
