WARNINa.-In Eureka some things
can be done as well rs Others. even
though larger towns, such as Virginia
City for instance, hang people and all
that sort Of thing, which Is to say that
suspicious characters must look out
when coming among us. We r in
formed from reliable authority that n
resident of the western part Of the
State arrived per stage from Palisade
yesterday morning, and was presented
with an immense aud Illustrated
"notice from m indescribable So
ciety, supposed to. lean toward the
ticket-of-leave -order. Perhaps the
presentation Of this %ponderous docu-
ment may have the effect of making
foreigners regard us with more respect
than heretofore. and mise the idea Of
Eureka institutions Of law and order
to u par with that OF older and more
advanced places In the State. As Wig
ilance Committees have become FASH
ionable, and we desire to DO in the
fashion, u boys have determined to
follow the ways Of our older brethren.
1t would be we'll for persons intending
to pay us a visit to be sure that their
characters are above reproach, or the
consequences will be deplorablc.-

AN OBrTuARY.-Hsre Is one from
the White Pine Neus Of September -,
A. D. 1871:
Death Of Carlo 10y Requestl.-Most
all the old settlers knew Carlo, owned
mutually by Frank Shoemaker and
Steve Tucker. Carlo Is dead! In m
uncuarded moment he picked up a
piece of poisoned meat intended for a
NANCY cur. He had a presentimont
that dog-days were about over; and
lust before his death he crawled to the
feet of his old master, gave a lnournful
whine or two, and departed for the
happy land of canlno. After keeping
him sufficiently long to be certain OF
his death, Steve made n grave and
buried him. Carlo was IL years old
last Spring. He came Of good blood
was a bull on his fathers side, and re-
lated to the Scotch terriers on Ills
mothers side. Although lie had the
distempsr when n pup, his temper was
even, not being inclined to be snap
pish, nor getting his back up ut trilles.
He'd give up a bone to n small dog any
time rather than wiring in all the dogs
In town into his fights. His owners
had such unlimited confidence IN him
that he did all tho marketing. A
butcher couldn't cut of n porterhouse
steak behind the horns and wiring it In
on him. Carlo took great delight In
staging. So perfect was his training
that he would "spot"a passenger with
a pair of good boots, and as soon rs the
weary traveller was asleep he would
pull his boots of and present them to
his master. Carlo was up TO snuff
Peace to his ashes.

LOVE IN A TUNNEL.-Pious reader,
did you ever-I desire not to be per-
sonal-but did you ever kiss a girl In a
railroad tunnel? never did, but II
the truth must be told, I've wanted to,
awful bad. Not that | have any doubt
that gobbllng a chaste salute within
the dark and narrow confines Of a tun-
mel renders a kiss more delicious than
II stolen or taken with full permission
anywhere else ; but It's the novelty of
the thing. 1t Is the darkness ; the rank
burglary; the nice calculation as to
time !; tile sudden assault the desper-
ate defense ; the acute agony OF the
skirmish-line of hair pins the carry
ing Of the o%uterworks b; the fierce strug-
gle Of the scarp; the glorious sweet
ness of the surrender after the victory.
Then hurried repairs, and the impoSsl.
BILE attempt to appear placid and all
serene before the other passengers. I
tell you there's q short lifetime passed
In the kissing Of girl in n railroad
tunnel.

CoRNwALL, ENsLANp.-The emigra-

CORNWALL, ESGLAND.-The emigra-
ton Of miners and agricultural labor
ers from the county Of Cornwall, In
the southwest Of England, has recently
been very great. Farmers, it Is re-
ported, have been obliged to carry on
their harvesting operations with a
small force Of laborers, and are offer.
Ing wages as high as from twenty-five
dollars to twenty-seven dollars and a
half a month, with meals. Even this
high rate Of wages, 1t Is stated, has
failed to secure harvest laborers. The
farmers are consequently considerably
embarrassed, as the crops are rapidly
rlpenlng, and the use Of machinery to
cut and store the grain has not yet
been introduced generally. In the
mines the low rate Of wages has driv-
EN- away the miners to the Welsh and
English coal mines, and also to the
United States. Under these circum-
stances the owners OF the Cornwall
tin mines are greatly Inconvenience
through lack Of hands.

The CALIFORNIA ELEcTIos.-The
Democracy here have a variety Of ex-
plantations for the turn Of fifteen or
twenty thousand votes indicated by the
incoming returns. Haight elected In
1867 by between nine and ten thousand,
now defeated by about that sum, after
rendering what Is generally conceded
to have been q fair administration.
The Democrats ascribe this change to
caprice, to prejudice-to any cause but
sound reasoning. They curse the Irish,
saying they sold out to work In tho
Navy Yard as voters; curse the Ger
mans, as having been moved by anti
Catholic motives; and damn a niger,
because the always did. The Examiner
gives equally idle explanation Of the
matter. It says the people Of the State
have, by this vote, committed them
selves as favoring entire political and
social equallty-by rejecting the DEM
ocracy and its platform while, to its
shame, its platform stands, taking in
to the fullest every word and letter
that the Republican party has written

leges to the tawny races.-Whhe Pine

A pocToR's horse In Galveston,

He will start from the doctors Office,
without guidance 20 direct to the resi-
dence Of the physicians patient re-
quiring a morning visit, and thence to
all the others Of a long list. While
the doctor is busy the faithful horse,
unhitched, waits at the door, and no
kind Of force or persuasion a induce
It to move. When the visits are made
the animal has a resting spell at the
office, and 1t Is amusing to watch
doc" as he Is called, visit the other
horses about the street. In all his
movements the animal has never upset
or injured the buggy, nor has he VIC
lated the city sidewalk or other ordi-
nances. He must be a very smart
horse indeed. -

FROM SAN FRANCISCO

SAN Francisco, Sept. 16-l P. NJ
In the Twelfth District Court to-day,
Assistant District Attorney Freelan
moved for 4 nolle prosequi in the case
Of Mary Jacoby, the Indian servant
girl, who has lain In Jail a year for the
murder of her newborn (illegitimate)
child. The grounds given were that
no sufficient evidedce of the fact OF the
child having been born alive could be
procured, and that on the question Of
the sanity Of the prisoner at the mo-
ment of the murder, If one was COM
mitted, there was so much doubt that
there was no reasonable ground for
believing that a jury could be induced
to convict her under these circum-
stances. The motion was granted and
the girl set at liberty. The Court de-
sired It noted that the delay In bring
ing the case to trial was caused solely
by the defense, who desired to send to
Humboldt for witnesses, the prosecu-
ton having been ready at all times to
proceed with the case.
At 5 o'clock last evening, when 4
dense fog covered sea and land, the
fine American clipper ship Annie Sise,
from Sydney, with n cargo of coal for
the Central Pacific Railroad Company,
went on the reef at Point Reyes on
which 10 many vessels have been
wrecked. Her bottom was stove
In when she first struck and
In a few minutes she commenced
keeling over OH one side. There was
but little wind at the time but a heavy
ground swell, and the ship almost i'm
mediately commenced breaking up.
At 9 o'clock this morning, the crew
took to the boats and were soon after
taken on board q small schooner which
brought them to this city. The Annie
Sise was owned in Portland, Me-, and
commanded by Capt. Geo. w. Tucker.
She was a tlrst-class clipper ship, nearly
new, and wa on her third trip to this
port. The vessel and cargo will prove
a total loss.
The anniversary of Mexican indie
pendence is being celebrated with
spirit to-day. The display Of Next
can, American and Consular flags Is
very general. They will have a fine
ball and literary exercises at Mozart
Hall this evening.
The entire vote of the city, so far as
the appealing candidates are con-
cerned, is nearly recounted. The
errors discovered are not sufficient to
defeat any candidate hitherto reported
elected, and the recount has therefore
practically failed.
The Republican judicial Nomina-
ting Convention endorsed the nomlna-
ton of Judge Samuel H. Dwinelle for
the 18th District Couat, last evening,
and adjourned.
The Coroner's jury In the case of
the late Mrs. Alpheus Bull, returned
a verdict that deceased was a native of
Massachusetts, aged So years, and
came to her death by suicide by hang
ing September 9TH, while laborlng
under temporary insanity.
The list of diplomas awarded at the
Mechanics Fair, as published to-day,
causes any amount of grumbling. 1t
Is evident that some Of the Committee

at random, as the absurdities commit

hypothesis.

The season seems to be one of more
wonderful ore DEVELOPMENTS than ever
before occurred In this or perhaps any
other country. There have been many
very important discoveries in Utah,
White Pine, Eureka and Ely districts,
also In other localities, embracing
gold, silver, and base metals, all Of
which have contributed to the greater
flow of the precious metals. But there
are three types, so to speak, which sur
pass any former mines In value. These
are, first, the Crown Point and Bel
cher on the Comstock lode, where the
body Of ore as far as uncovered values
between fifteen and twenty millions,
and beyond that the extent Is %conjec-
tural. The ore Is about half and half
silver and gold sulphurets, and the
out-turn is limited only Mt present by
scarcity Of water. Second Is the Ray
mond & Ely of the Ely district, OF
which the leading mines are the Mea-
dow Valley, Phoebe and the Raymond
& Ely. The ores OF this region at first
carried base metal, but were very pro-
ductiye of silver. The Raymond s.
EIy, In June, however, sunk n shaft
100 feet on a vein Of chloride of silver
free of base metals. and carrying 3 per

which il mined with great ease, and
