CARSON IrEMs.-We extract the fol-
lowing from the Register Of this morn-
ing: Henry r. Mighels, for some years
editor and one OF the proprietors Of
the Carson Appeal, left for Sacramento,
California, last evening, accompanied
by his wife and family, and his wife's
sister. Miss Hattie Yerrill. Harry will
remain in Sacramento for some weeks,
ut the Golden Eagle Hotel. We ex-
pect that his pen will be felt In the
coming political campaign in Calitor-
mia /; and it certainly will, If the Re-
publican party in that State wish to
secure the services of a vigorous and
trenchant writer, for Mighels Is thor
oughly well posted in California and
National politics. and is n profound
thinker and forcible writer. -. AS near
rs we al get at the facts from intelli-
GENT Cinnamon, the woman, All Foo,
who committed suicide day before yes
terday. was driven to the act by the
cruelty OF her owner, one Chow Sing,
who had been in the habit Of beating
her cruelty every two or three days.
The taking of the opium was q DELHI
crate and Intentional act Of self-homi-
eide, committed for the purpose Of
avoiding further cruelty she could not
otherwise escape. Were the mind ola
heather susceptible to the pangs Of re-
morse, We might hope that her perse-
cutor would meet with that punish
ment which the cruelty merits.....
Two gentlemen had n little Coburn-
Mace matinee yesterday, in which the
more agile Of the two put a head on
his adversary and took to his heels and
got away before the other got fairly
in. The astonished fighter
who was left In the lurch enjoyed the
Joke as mnch rs did the by-standers.
.... The Muller boys, stimulated by
Tillou and Wizards rich openings In
the north extension Of the Mammoth
mine, Eagle District, have commenced
on their tunnel and are rapidly driving
1t to tap the ledge OH the original To-
cation. They have about fifty feet
further to 60 before reaching ore.
EASTERN STAR ENTERTAINMENT
The concert and ball entertainment
given ut New Armory Hall, Virginia,
last evening, by the ladies Of Virginia
Chapter No. 4 of the Eastern Star, was
very we'll attended, and tho occasion
was one of a very pleasing and inter-
esting nature, highly enjoyed by oil
present. The Choral Society sang
some of their best pieces, Il. H.. Lind
say gave one or two favorite songs,
and Carl Williams, the talented leader
of Piper's Opera House orchestra, ap-
peared in an excellent violin solo.
Dancing also formed a prominent fea.
ture of the occasion, and was INDUCED
in freely by all who chose, those who
did not dance OF course lending tn
approving smiles of their willing coun-
tenances to the festive scene. Tie
music BY the band was most excellent
and rs good rs we have listened to this
season. The Strawberries and cream
were also we'll patronized, and the
dancing and other rational enjoyments
were kept up till a late hour. Dancing
Is always the most attractive and best
paving feature, wen ut church festi-
walls. The Eastern Star, however, Is a
side degree of Masonry, intended for
the wives and daughters Of Master
Masous. The Chapter ut Virginia Is
recently organized, yet 1t has quite 4
large number of members, and this
concert social was given in order to
help out their treasury department a
little.
TIE ."HEArHEN CHINEE.".- Fred.
Boegle, Esq, of the Virgins Postofice
News Depot, has favored US with a
neat little pamphlet, containing an
admirable fac smile Of the original
manuscript of the "Heathen Chinee,"
rs was written by +. Bret Harte, with
all its interlineations and corrections,
together with the letter-press copy as
1t appeared in the Overland Monthly
Of September, 1870, embellished with
4 capital likeness Of the author. 1t has
been stated that, rs originally written
and intended, "'rruthful James" stated
rs follows in regard to the innocent
Celestial, "Ah Sin :" ain his sleeves,
which we're long, he had twenty-four
Jacks" and the word packs, rs In the
universally published version, is q mis-
take. Jacks certainly Is the most ap-
propriate and reasonable word, and
most in accord with the spirit and
intent of the piece, but this published
original and corrected letter-press YER
sion OF it would seem to settle tho
matter in favor Of packs. Boegle has
plenty Of the pamphlets for sale, and
they can also be obtained from Mr..
j. X. Myers, the well known newsman.
They are n very cheap as we'll rs inter-
esting literary curiosity.
Rock POINT MnL.-The Rock Point
mill, OH Carson river, at the lower end
of Dayton, is now running on ore from
the Crown Point mine. The mill
