DIED OF HIS INJURIEs.-We regret to
announce that Mr.. John F. Strain, the
gentleman wounded in the shooting af-
fray on election day. died Yesterday af-
ternoon about O'Clock. He was a ma
tive OF Donegal, Ireland but was raised
in Charleston, S. G. He came to Cali
fornia in 1866, and to White Pine early
in the excitement cansed by the silver
discoveries there. He has been in this
camp since January last. He is about
20 years of age. From gentlemen who
know him well We learn he was highly
esteemed by all his acquaintance, all of
whom deeply lament his untimely death.
His remains will be inferred to-day nj 2
O'Clock p. M, under the auspices Of the
Meagher Guard, OF which company he
was worthy member.
QUrET-Since the election matters in
town have gradually assumed ouieter
aspect. The folks seem to have exhaust
ell themselves on election day, while the
suspense Of the prolonged count seems
to have acted as a sedativa A good deal
OF money has been ventnred on the
different candidates, and those that have
lost are not inclined to be iocose, and the
winners have probably not received
'ht ir money; so Their time for laughing
has not arrived. On the Democratic
site of the house reio'cinp is nv no
MEANS in order and the Pubs. have So
much good fortune to make merry over
that they have not had time to realize it.
INCREASING PoruLArroN.-T Though the
number of persons who come tc, Phoebe
for the purpose Of settling here has been
increasing for some months, We are in
formed that the election being over, that
the number wfll be very largely in.
crensed. The daily accruing evidence
OF the valne and permanenre of onr
mines has convinced all that an era of
continued rrosportv il in store for
Phoebe. This impression il founded
upon most substantial grounds and we
feel sure that those who cast their for
tunes in this region will il dilgent and
preserving have no reason to repent OF
their choice.
JUSTICES CouRT.-George Manning,
who was concerned in the shooting
scrape on the dsy of election, was
brought before Justice Stoutenburgh for
examination. There being no complaint
made against him he was discharged.
Wales, who was also arrested on charge
Of particinating in the same affair, was
discharged. T. O'Brien charged with
like offence, was admitted to bail in the
sum of $500. j. Gleason, arrested on a
charge of petty larceny, was discharged,
<be complaint being withdrawn.
rHE FUNERAL of the unfortunate man,
Dennis Manning, took place yesterday.
The body was followed to the grave BY
the largest procession we have seen in
Phoebe. Az the long line passed along
we could not but feel sincere sorrow,
that such an untimely fate should have
overtaken two such deserving men-the
deceased and his brother the latter of
whom was buried but a few days since,
having met his death in the same terrible
manner.
The OFFICE SEEKING THE MAN.-In
the past election we at any rate have one
instance Of this rare occurrence. Our
friend Capt A. D. Rock was elected JUS
t,ce of the Peace in Bristol Township.
Nye County, without knowing he had
been placed in nomination. Though the
office is but small affair, still the Can
tains election is just compliment to a
most worthy citizen.
THE COUNTING is at length drawing to
close, though We do not expect that
it will be finished until some time after
we 90 to press. In another place the
result will be found as it appeared ut II
