WAsHoE VALLEY. - From James
Gatewood we learn that the farmers of
that beautiful valley are very jubilant
over the prospects of a rich harvest
this year. The grain and hay crop is
said to be double as compared to last
wears. The reason of this is that
water has been plenty during the
whole of last Spring and this Summer,
and, consequently, the grain, vege-
tables, etc, had a fair chance to grow.
There is no richer OF better situated
land in the country as in Washce Val
ley. Most of the Inhabitants thereof
are old settlers, and, of course, thor
oughly understand how to work it to
advantage. Their residences. barns,
etc, will compare favorably to any i'll
California, or Oregon. The costly
mansion situated between Ophir
and Franktowr, owned by Mrs. Bow
ers is by far the finest residence in the
Stale. The garden which surrounds
it is full # the choicest flowers and
grasses, and everything around 1t is,
indeed. beautiful. The AXE lying Ill
the eastern part Of the valley causes a
great number of tourists and hunters
to visit it. We congratulate our
neighbors on the reward they are sure
TO obtain for their industrious pursuits.

cindlestick thrust into his neck, in

heads from falling rocks and tim
and by running against the walls and
timbers in the pitchy darkness which
prevailed after the cave.
A NEW WAY OF FEEDING BOILERS.
In case of pumps giving out. says
the Enterprise of yesterday, the engi-
neers connected with the various
hosting works on the Con>tock, have
adopted a novel eXpedieut for supply
