Tie 1. Y. l.. MINING DIsTRcr.-We
were yesterday shown several pieces
of orc from this recently discovered
mining locality, near the Lower Sink
of Carson river. by q gentleman just
arrived from there. The ore Is prin-
cipally of = chloride character, con-
tanning also black sulphqrets, and Is
evidently rich In silver, some pieces
showing specks Of free gold, visible to
the naked eye. Considerable pros
pecting and developing work Is being
done, and our informant was quite en-
thusiastic as to the future bullion yield
when the requisite mills are supplied
for crushing the ore. He says one or
two mills will be erected there next
Spring or Summer. The AhG Of FRI
day gives the following Information :
i::rhe 1. X. l.. mining district Is situS-
ted in Churchill county, Nevada. 1t
was discovered last September BY some
miners Of that county, and promises TO
exceed White Pine, both in richness
as we'll as width Of the lodges. Tho
common hand arastras are yielding
good wages-a facility none OF the pro
ylous discoveries In that state have
ever afforded to the poor minor to any
great extent, and their hard-earned 10
Cations have heretofore generally been
worthless unless taken hold Of BY cap
italists. 1t Is apparently easy OF &C
cess, being only about co miles east OF
Wadsworth, at the foothills Of what Is
known "a the lower sink Of the Carson,
with plenty Of wood. water and grass
handy and almost entirely free from
those rigorous Winters which charac-
terizes most Of the Nevada mining
camps. This Ia, doubtless, the place
where the Spring excitement will driit
to, and will probably DO the scene o.
many fortunes and dlsappointments
during the coming Summer"
ELEGANT NEW SALOON. - Major
G.. Z. Ferrend has rebuilt and rsfitted
his we'll known and favorits saloon,

saloon this side Of the Sierra Nevaoa
Mountains. From the Handsomely
finished front to the well-arranged
club-rooms at the rear, everything IS
of the richest description. and all IN
harmonious keeping With the character
of the establishment. The splendid
large mirror behind the bar took the

Sacramento last Fall, and the walls

Stout SENT BAcK.--The Reno Jour
nal of Saturday says: "John d. Stout,
who robbed the Auburn Mills OF hot
bullion some time since, was yesterday
sentenced by Judge Harris, OF the DIS
trict Court, to twenty years IN the
State Prison. The bullion Will nave
time to cool by the time Stout gets OUT
again." The police and citizens OF
Virginia know Stout pretty well. ne
WAS sent to tho State Prison from that
city two or three years ago for u some
what dubious difficulty he was con-
cerned In, and had not been out OF
the prison many months when his not
bullion enterprise at Reno again got
him into limbo. While out no was
employed or made use OF by tho VIZ
ginla police to some extent and was
instrumental In tho arrest OF Ryan,
an escaped convict ; also OF William
Willis, the incendiary. They Will
doubtless be pleased to welcome STOUT
back to his old quarters.
FIoUnINo SAGEBRUsn.-The other
morning a sleigh loaded with sacks Of
flour, coming from Steamboat to Vir-
ginia, over the Geiger Grade, upset a
short distance north Of tho Sierra Ne
yada works, tumbling the whole load
down the steep hillside. Several OF
the sacks were torn open, and tho
sagebrush for about fifty yards down
the hill was we'll whitened with flour.
Considerable stray profanity was In
Obliged In by the driver before no got
Sis load collected and righted, and
~observant Piutes scraPed up
scattered flour they could for domestic
use.
