Our WALK.-Tired of the sanctum,
disguised with everything, and in a
splenetic mood, We sailed forth in search
of treason, murder or arson. Ye local
meeting the many genial spirits (always
found in II mining camp) our ire was
at once subdued and We left the search
as Quixote did when attacking his wind
mills and at once would have surren-
dered to the Establishments of the fair, if
we had not already been given over to
the wild vagaries of Bacchus We do re-
member of seeing in the, lower part of
town fair building, by money, skill and
enterprise, rearing its lofty proportions,
with front on one street and rear on the
other. Who shall tell the secrets and
tales OF this casa? 1t may be those at
the Bridge of Signs of another land, dis
cribed by the immortal Bard wherein
no one can tell, who we are or what we
have been. ---'' - '-'
AELANcHoLY.-We arc panied to an
nounce the death Of an interesting child
of Mr.. D. l. Wilmans, which occurred
yesterday morning. After an illness of
two weeks or more, during which time
the little sufferer received the tenderest
care and closest attention from her par.
ents and the friends and relatives of the
family, she finally succumbed to the
great destroyer. We tender to the be-
reaved parents the assurances of our
sincere condolences. tf.I.
