says the Truekee nepublicap Of August
18th, resulted in an acquittal. The
woman with whom he has been living.
and who claimed to he his welded wife
Miss Anna Holmes-came into Court to
Mr.. Phillips rescue, and swore she was
not bis wife. There being no proc! that
they were man and wife, other than that
they lived together after the usual FASH
ion of married people, compelled the
Court to dismiss the charge of bigamy
and release the defendant from custody.
Immediately after the dismissal of the
case, Mr.. Phillips and the woman, Miss
Holmes (her real name is said to be Ma
omi Ann Lones), were arrested on a
charge of adultery. The case has been
on trial ever since 10 o'clock this morn
ing, and is not yet concluded. A large
number of men have been attracted to
the Courtroom to listen to the testimony
and witness the progress and result of
the trial. Should a conviction follow, it
is said that q large number Of men in
this vicinity would be in an unpleasant
predicament, and sudden emigration to
a more congenial cline would be likely
to follow. Intense interest seems to
center around the case.
The st. Louis Dispatch gives the fol-
lowing account of a serenade given to ex-
President jefferson Davis, in St. Louis
Z" Last night two sable Africans, who in
ante bell,m times hoed the corn and
picked the cotton on Mr.. Davis planta.
ton, serenaded their old master at the
Planters. Upon the conclusion of their
dulcet strains Mr.. Davis called them to
his room and made them both handsome
presents. He was also called on by an
old aunty who had the task of nursing
his oldest child. The affection of the
warm hearted ex.slaves for their old
master, and the kind interest manifested
by that distinguished gentleman, would
have made an original Abolitionist turn
black with chagrin.

latest telegraphic news, the spiciest local

EAST AND WEST RAILROAD.

In leading article on the subject of
q more direct railroad route from St.
Louis to San Francisco, the Salt Lake
Herald says:
Our Nevada contemporaries are ex-
pressing themselves on the subject lately
treated of in the Eureka Sentinel, and
since dwelt upon IN the Herald-an east
and west railroad that will pass through
or near to large number of the princi-
pal mining districts in Utah and Nevada.
The Phoebe Record sensibly concludes
that the project is feasible, and encour-
ages it. The Virginia Chronicle consid-
crs that such line might be built in
this gener alton, but thinks it hardly
probable. -...
In conclusion the Herald says:
This new east and west railroad is not
only probable within this generation,
but Is actually in progress, although our
western neighbors do not seem to be
aware of the fact; and there is to-day
less to be done to complete the road than
the Pacific railroad had to do between
Sacramento and Laramie. San Francis
GO is interested in it; st. Louis is inter
ested in it, and business men of large
means are ready to invest in it; while
every county and precinct through which
it would pass should lend their aid to
make it m accomplished fact.

GRANT GETS A COLD SHOULDER
FROM THE PENNSYLVANIA RE.
pUBLIcANS.

The Republican State Convention of
PENNSYLVANIA met at Harrisburg on the
18th. After nominating Il. W. Mckee
for State Treasurer and 5. G. Gordon for
Justice of the Supreme Court, preamble
and resolutions were adopted, and the
convention adjourned. lteannot escape
the notice OF the most casual observer
that while the convention denounced the
salary steal, it had not a word censuring
the President, who signed it; that while it
indorses the Republican Governor OF
Pennsylvania, it has not a word of praise
for tue r publican President of the
United States Following are the reso-
lutions:
We, the Republicans of Pennsylvania,
in convention assembled, renew our eN-
preston of confidence in and devotion to
the principles of Repubhcanism, and de-
clare that we heartily indorse and adopt
the National and State platform of 1872;
Resolved, That the administration of
Governor Hartranft calls for our warmest
appreciation. During the short time he
has been in the Executive Department he
has established State policy which has
Justly endeared him to the people of the
commonwealth.
Resolved, That as retrenchment is re-
quired to tighten the burdens of taxation,
and to continue the reduction Of the pub
lie debt, an increase of salaries is unwise,
and we condemn, without reserve, the
voting for or receiving increased pay for
services already rendered.
Resolved, That during the time that
the Republican party has been in power,
it has had to confront graver difficulties,
and more new and perplexing questions
of government than ever were presented
10 any other party to solve.

GLEANINGS FROM EXCHANGES.

Mr.. DAWSON, brother.in-law to Major
William Downie (as we learn from pri-
yate note from the latter named gentle.
man, written from Corvallis, Oregon),
has discovered new and simple method
of saving the finest particles Of gold in
the beach diggings of the Pacific, and it
is believed that the same process can be
applied in saving tailings from silver
ores. 1t is simply the vaporizing OF
quicksilver. Sand on the northern
beach that has heretofore, by the most
effective modes for saving fine gold, paid
only 81 per ton, by the Dawson process
pays from 81 to So. A pan or kettle,
made OF boiler iron. four feet long, three
feet wide and two feet deep, will hold
ton of sand. Tho pan is filled
about two-thirds full OF sand leav-
ing room for four or five inches
Of water on top. hot fire is then made
under the pan and the contents boiled
for two or three hours. This vaporizes
the quicksilver, sending it up through
the sand, permeating the mass so thor
oughly that even the finest conceivable
particle of gold is gathered up. The
body of water on top of the sand (or tail
ings, as the case may be) arrests the as
cent of the mercurial vapor and again
precipitates it. But to make sure that
none of the quicksilver shall escape, a
plate-shape cover, kept cool by being
filled with cold water, is placed over the
pan. II the vaporized quicksilver should
escape the water it is at once arrested and
precipitated by coming in contact with
the cold iron above. patent has been
applied for, and Major Downie will visit
this city in short time to try silver tail
ings by the new process, and it is thought
by some that IL it should prove success
it will work q complete revolution In the
system of amalgamating silver ores

CHICAGO, August II.
An accident occurred at 1890 last |
night near Lemont, Illinois, 20 miles
southwest of Chicago, on the Chicago

demolished south bound passenger

cars caught fire, and several were badly
burned and scalded The passenger
train left Chicago at 9 p. M, and was
twenty minutes late when it ran into q

met on a very low prairie in thick fog.

The National Revenue Reform Associa-
/ ton has addressed communication to
the Secretary of the Treasury, asking
him to revoke the order recently issued
by Collector Arthur, Of the Custom-house,
requiring merchants in person to make
affidavts to entries. The letter adds
that the real motives of the issuance of
the order is simply the qualification of
self-consequence, and to compel the per-
sonal attendance of merchants, in order
to humble and still further hamper
them with unnecessary and arbitrary re-
quirements under the color of law.

[Ffom the Reese River Reveille, Aug. l4l
A TERRIBLE CLoup-BUgsT.-A gentle
man arrived in this city to-day, who
brings the news of terrible cloud-burst
which occurred in Yogo Canyon. He in
forms us that at noon on the day before
yesterday the family of William McGilli-
gan, who lives at the foot Of the canyon,
were startled bya rumbling noise, and on
emerging from the house observed a
small cloud, apparently no larger than a
mans hand, but which rapidly increased
in size until it extended over the entire
length and width of the canyon, obscur-
ing the sun and rendering daylight into
almost the darkness of night. Mr.. Nc
Gilligan s four beautiful and accomplished
daughters, alarmed at the strange scene,
attempted to escape from the impending
danger and would undoubtedly have been
successful but for the fact of the eldest,
Almira Jane, returning to the cabin to
endeavor to save an eight octave
piano which, being an heirloom in
VIC NhC was lOth W bcc uc-
stroyed. This delay was fatal and in
volved the untimely death of the entire
interesting family. Scarcely had Almira
Jane reached the door of the cabin, on
her return, when, with q noise resemb-
ling the discharge of thousand pieces
of artillery, the darkness suddenly parted
in the center, and, simultaneously, an
immense sheet of water descended upon
the doomed house like shot from gun

canyon had been was now only part OF

the cloud-burst having filed it mp to a
