whom the contract had been awarded,
returned to Reno last Monday, having
worked out the appropriation. Their
last camping place was In the vicinity
Of Queens river, away up In Hum

We saw one day this week. at the
Truckee Market, the largest calf, we
venture TO predict ever killed In Ne.
vada. 1t was only eight months old,
and weighed, after dressing, four hun.
dred and twenty-eight pounds. IL was
raised by Phi Bates of Long Valley.
Its mother was q Deery cow. from
which 1t sucked until Phi brought 1t To
town and sold 1t to Norton.

Coon Convicted.

On Saturday last Charles Coon. the
d~etaulting clerk Of Cahill & Co., stock
brokers at San Francisco, was tried
and convicted Of grand larceny. The
alta says:
Our readers will recollect the COM
motion In stock circles In June, 1859,
when IL MAS announced that the firm
Of Cahill Sc Co., stock brokers, had
been robbed Of mining shares amount
ing to nearly $4,000. Charles d.
Coon was q clerk In their employ at
the time. and suspicion pointed toward
him rs being engaged to some extent
in the larceny. Coon, one evening
after the discovery of the larceny, left
the Office on account Of sickness, and
filled to return to settle up his &C,
counts. In fact, he could not be found
in the city. 1t was alleged that be
had fed from the State ; and he lately
returned to the city after an absence o.
three years. He was delivered up TO
the authorities to answer to three In
dlctments pending against him fol-
grand larceny. The defense offered
no testimony. Counsel argued the
case to the jury, and after receiving In
~structions from the Court they retired,
bringing In a verdict Of guilty In
twenty minutes. The defendant was
ordered to appear for sentece GU the
30th Instant.

Fatal ARRAY at Phoebe.

Between three and four o'clock yes.
terday afternoon, says the Phoebe Rec
ord of November 81. the Headquarters
Saloon. Panaca Flat, was the scene OF
a difficulty between James Woods aud
VIM. McCarty, which resulted In the
death Of the latter. From u gentle
man who witnessed the fatal ARRAY we
learn that Woods, McCarty and an
other man were playing cards for the
drinks, and at the close Of the game
Woods accused the other two Of play
Ing unfairly. This was denied, and
McCarty called Woods s-n Of Il b..
Woods then offered to fight McCarty II
he would 20 out Of the house, but Nc
Carly was unwilling to that. Woods
said he would not allow q man to call
him such q name as that, aud left. I'm
mediately after he returned with a
large knife. but McCarty was not In
the room. Our informant says he tried
to get the knife away from Woods, and
had almost obtained his consent to give
1t up. when McCarty came In through
the back door aud struck Woods a
blow, from the effects OF which he jos
tied against our Informant and knocked
him over the stove. Before he could
regain his feet Woods closed upon Nc
Carly with his knife. He inflicted four
or five severe wounds. one or two Of
which were mortal, from the effects Of
which he died In q short time. Woods
Immediately started to surrender him
self to an officer, aud meeting Consta-
BILE Dollitf. he submitted to arrest, and
was taken to Jail. He previously gave
up his knife to a citizen, and showed
no disposition to escape. A reporter
called upon Woods at the County Jail,
but was unable to get any information
from him. Woods Is a native Of Ire
land, and probably not exceeding
thirty years Of age. He has the repu-
tatlon of being a quiet, ~inotfensive
man. McCarty was born In Boston.
Of Irish parents, and was about 80
years OF age.

Doctrine. However, 1t Is a good dea !
Known now over the city. In all the
Conversations he appeared face to fac
with Agnes ; and he invariably spoke
Of Jesus Christ when he was asked for
advice how to live. l went there every
day during the time he predicted he
had to remain, and on Friday, at one
O'Clock, I was there watching. I was
putting questions as usual when he an
nounced the time was fast approach
Ing. The girl was standing In the
room, In the centre of the fioor-the
door open and about eight persons
looking on-among the rest Mr.Lynch.
| kept my eye on the clock-there was
no clock In the room with Agnes-as
soon as the precise second arrived ihalf
past one o'clock) the child screamed,
falling on her knees: There Is the
ANGEL She screamed out several
times to her father. and rushed after
him to the door, where he told her,
during the week. she could
sEE HIM 60 UP TO HEAVEN WITH THE
ANGEL.
She saw him as he described. The
flight was due east, in a slanting line.
She saw him only about q second a.
cending. when he WAS out Of sight.
Such is the outline Of this strange
apparltion. What do you think OF It
Agnes McDonough received her first
communion on the first Sunday Of Sep
tember and was confirmed by your
Lordship the same day. Her brother,
who never went to church since the
death Of her father, attends since. and
Il preparing for a general confession.
| Strange, the father told him what to
do and how to prepare ; that Is. when
Agnes asked him. He told him to 60
three times every Saturday for three
Saturdays, and, II necessary, a fourth,
to prepare for his Holy Communion ;
after that to 60 to his duty every third
week for six months, and then never
to omit his religious duties afterward.
I suppose you are already tired GU.
with this narration.
The Guardian Is convinced that the
ordinary spiritual communications are
from an intelligence not human, but
thinks that they are bad spirits, while
1t at the same time believes with st,
Augustine and all the fathers that pure
spirits are sometimes permitted to re.
visit the earth for special purposes, and
1t seems to think that this may be one
Of those special cases, and MI. McDon.
ough's spirit may have been permitted
to come back to confound the doctrines
Of modern Splrltualism and indorse
the teachings Of the Catholic Church,
The Guardian winds up by saying: In
this age miracles and strange things
appear to be accommodating on all sides
It was, perhaps, necessary to combat
the materlalistic tendency Of so-calleo
scientific men, and, for that matter. oil
most of the Protestant churches. Ant
in this, as In all things else, all we, a.
Catholics, have to do Is to put on thu
brakes, 70 slowly, aud listen to the
never-errlng voice Of the Church.
