FROM THE SoUTH.-We learn from
the Register that d. P. Pierce, the well
known and efficient mill Superintend-
emit, formerly of Gold Hill, and latterly
of the Kearsarge mill, arrived at Car
son, Saturday, from Benton. He gives
n glowing account of the mining out
look to the southwark, and thinks that
the mines Of Inyo county, California,
are destined to prove fully as rich and
moro extensive than those Of any
county in Nevada. This prediction
has also been made by many gentle
men from that section whom We have
conyersed with Of late. An Indian re-
Gently arrived at Benton and stated
that he had met Charles Jones on the
opposite side OF the Sierra. The H.
dian offered to return with . single
companion and capture the escaped
convict, but could get no one to ac-
company him. Jones was living about,
from one sheep ranch to another, on
the upper waters Of the San Joaquin
river, the ranchers not knowing that
he was an escaped convict. The Indian
saws he knew Jones we'll, had known
him before no went to White Pine and
had frequently played cards with him
when Jones was engaged in teaming
about Bishop Creek.
CHM EN- FITs.-The night John L.
CHM, local editor Of the Carson Regis
ter, got married, a lot of the fellows
about town went and gave him a RI
dlculous serenade with all sorts OF
noisy unmusical Instruments regu-
lar charivarl. The next night the
same crowd treated another newly
married couple to q similar dose. In
the last two Issues Of the Register CHM
pitched into those follows rough, call
ing them a set of cowardly loaters,
blSckguards, and all that sort Of thing,
even drawing Wcbster's Unabridged
upon them In support Of his argument.
He very properly adds: This kind OF
ruflanlsm ought to be suppressed,
either by a liberal application Of cro-
ton oil to tho whisky exacted as tribute
By the ~outcasts who render night hid
eous by their unearthly noises-or oy
shotguns-and we hope the next young
couple married In this city will apply
one remedy or the other.

DaNEY.-Ths mine Is destined to
figure we'll among the bullion produc-
ing mines at no very distant day. 1t
is being theoretically worked and de-
yeloped and the prospects are good for
finding good bodies Of ore. The drift
being run for the ledge, at the 4OO-foot
level. Is now l43 feet from the shaft,
and Is expected to strike good ore.
The sinking Of tho main shaft deeper
is progressing we'll, the rock working
adyantageously and with little water
TO contend with. II Is $50 feet deep
now. and Mt the depth Of 500 feet
another drift will DO started from It to
the ledge.

nearly 1l45I feet, having los feet fur
thar TO 20 to reach the 13oo-toot level,
WHARF firther sinking will be suspend
ed for awhile In order to drifs to the
1odoe from that and the 100 and ZOO
foof Ieyels simultaneously. The rock
