City Cemetery Entertainment,

Mr.. EpIroR:-The Entertainment for the
benefit of the City Cemetery was decided
success. Being an eye witness at one o. the
rehearsals Of the Band of Hope, and in con-
suitation with friend who was then present,
thought over tie matter of raising means for
the further improvement of our City Gene
terry, and from what | then saw, l was of
opinion the programme would be worth re-
peating, and in all probability would call out
different class of persons than would pre-
sent themselves to witness the first effort Of
the Band Of Hope in Sonora. The need of
funds for a worthy purpose will stimulate al
NEST any one to go ahead. The consent of
the officers of the Institution being obtained,
and somewhatto my surprise; they teltequally
anxious to do ali in their power to render q
just tribute to the memory of dear departed
ones. But how TO bring the matter before an
audience, was my next trouble. The enter
tainment will soon commence, | FASTENED to
lay the subject before the Rev. Mr.. Wyble of
the Methodist Church. l felt a load remov-
&c on receiving such a hearty response. The
hour of meeting arrived and the Rev. Gentle
man did bring the matter before the House,
first before the Band of Hope, and then ap-
pealed to the audience, and such was the feel
ing. that the vote was pronounced to be unan-
imous. To which all present on last Mon
day night will bear testimony. In closing,
Mr.. Editor, allow me to say that it would be
out of place to single out any one member of
the Band of Hope, when all performed so
well their part and that in so good cause.

Hon. Thomas Findlcy.

Among other gentleman wLo are seeking
the nomination for Governor of this State. is
the Hon. Thomas Findley of Nevada county.
lie is generally known throughout the State
as sound reliable Democrat worthy of the
confidence of his party. We shall wait until
the State Convention has made nominations
before advocating any particular man for
Governor, feeling confident that such men as
shall be nominated will be warmly supported
by the whole party. Should Mr.. Finley be
fortunate enough TO secure the nomination,
he will be entitled to such influence as We
possess to secure his election. The N;,ttcsaS
Gazette published in Nevada has the follow
ing we'll considered article
Hon. Thos. Findley. of Grass Valley, Ne
vada county, is one of the Democratic can
di6ates for Governor of California. The
Democrats Of this State is particularly fortu.
nate in having many good men from whom
10 choose their nominee for this important po--
sition. But where all are good no one, We
venture to say. is better or a sounder DEM
ocrat than the gentleman whose name heads
this article.
Being an honest. thorough Democrat, Mr.
Eindley, is, Of course, strongly opposed 10 un-
necessary special franchises and thieying
monopofes, and in protecting the people
against grasping spectators and corpora
tons, will carry out the time honored princi-
Piles Of the party whose nomination he seeks
Mr.. F'ndiey Is no new, untried man. His
honorable services as State Treasurer for two
successive terms, from 80 to '6l, won for him
the esteem and respect of all citizens of all
parties while his presence and influence at
our State Conventions has done much toward
keeping together and strengthening the Dem
ocracv, and has made him deseryedly popu-
lar with his own party.
As for the three principal requisites for
strong candidate, honesty, ability, and avail
ability, Mr.. Findley is as strong as any nan
in the State and if our State Convention
should nominate him for Governor, he would,
we believe, not only harmonic the party and
ieaC 1T to certain victory, but, what is more
important, he would make the incorruptble
and impartial Chief Executive demanded by
the interests of the entire State.
1t Is no feeling of personal friendship or
county pride that induces us to hope for Mr..
Findey's nomination. We have every conf
dence that the State Convention will make n
suitable choice, and whoever NAV be selected
we shall cordially support. Weonly announce
that he is candidate, knowing that among
the gentlemen who are mentioned no one has
more in his favor. with absolutely nothing
against him, than Hon. Thos Findley.

The FERGUSON QUARrz MINE.-A CORES
pendent to the Scientific Press writes the fol-
lowing in relation to this mine ::
The Ferguson quartz mine is situated on
the main fork of the MERGED river, about %
miles South of East, from Coultervil!e. and
within eight miles of the foot of the Yosemite
valley. 1t is owned by F. Ferguson & Co.,
who claim 3, 100 feet of ledge, are running
an S-stamp mill upon the same. Water is
the motive power, and plenty of it is run
ming free to drive thousand stamps. This
mine has been in successful operation for /
years, without leyying an assessment. 1t is
now paying a monthly dividend of $4,000,
besides laying aside a small surplus for con-
tingent expenses. They are now working
twenty men. The vein is from | to feet
thick, averaging p feet. The average pay
of the rock is now about S44 per ton. and
strange to say, it has never before appeared
in print. Their tunnel is in I, 100 feet on
level with the mill, to which the rock is cas-
lily taken by car. AT the back of tie tun-
ne. they have sunk shaft down 100 feet; at
this point it is 500 feet from the surface.
