CRUIsKEES.-Ths celebrated .as, horse, own
ed by Frank Bruner, WAS in town last week, and
was apparently never in better condition. 1t
will be remembered he is probably one OF the
best "three mile" horses IN the country, having
beaten the majority of long winded horses, and
rivaled the very best of them. His time at Men.
dota last year has scarcely ever been equaled.
He is in all respects a noble animal combining
more good points than are often found united in
any one horse. He will probably make a fall
season this year in this county.

had declined to S32,O0O,OOO year. and last
year they were only s23,00O,OO0, of which
$7,OOO,0OO were from quartz mining, and &c.
100000 from placer and gravel washing. The
wages paid to miners is $50 to so per msnth,
which Is more than twice the rate paid III

pays expenses. The people of the state have
however found compensation for the decline
of their gold interest in other things Their
fruit culture, wine interest and general agri.
culture have been so largely developed that
their shipments of wheat, flour and VINE. and
