situated south of Carson, and report:
that the travel all along the out i:
immense, but that every teamster tina
he came across was cursing the hor
rlble state of the road from Wadswortf
south. Great interest is manifested
by all to have the new road, spoken
of in Thursday mornings issue

creased. Something should be done
toward the construction of this road
immediately. The good results that
will ON from 1t are lncalculable.
Mr.. Meder also reports that MeSsrs.
Coonlbs and Callins, in company with
another man, have been prospecting,
Tor the last few days, Mammoth Dis
trict situated on the east side of Walker
river. Their labors go to show that
there are many indications of gold and
silver ore all through the district, and
preparations are being made by other
parties 10 Investigate its merits thor

ment known TO exist in that country
before. People are rushing in that
direction, and all indications go to
show hat good times are coming.
Mr.. NJ. also says that farmers meet

Room FOR MORE.-Improvement of
property, such AS dwelling houses,
stores and otherwise, seems to be the
order of the day, yet more could be
done by our men of NEAR if they
would improve their vacant lots 10y
putting thereon good frame buildings
for dwellings, which could be built at
10 great cost. n would be rented as
soon as built at remunerative prices.
Almost every day we meet heads of
families looking for shelter for them
selves and little one but none to be
found. In fact, new corners, whose
business is in Carson, have been forced
to seek a residence in Empire, four
miles away. because they could not
find a place to live in in this city. Our
Inoneyed men ought to take a note of
the increase of Inhabitants, and conse-
quent increase of business, and invest
in a safe thing, such as buildings and
rents.
DIsCHARGED.-The case of the State
of Nevada VS.. Nap. Butts was called in
the Justice Court yesterday morning
at 10 o'clock, for the decision of the
Judge in the matter. The case had
been thoroughly ventilated n argu-
meuts made, the evidence adduced,
and the trial undergone an impartial
examination before the Court. Find
ing nothing in the evidence t warrant
the ~remanding of the prisoner to
await the action of the Grand Jury, |
and feeling that such a course would
result in that body not indicting the
defendant for any crime, the Judge
dismissed the case, deeming that he
was doing his duty as an officer of the
law by the action.
