COMPLIMENTARY Rarely have we wit
messed a scene of such unalloyed pleas
ure as was our lot last night in attend
ance on an impromptu serenade given to
our esteemed felow-citizen, j. G. May
nard for the past year Superintendent of
the Meadow Valley mine. At the sug-
geston of Martin Tarpey, Esq, few
gentleman, friends of Mr.. Maynard, con-
ceived the idea of giving him serenade
on the occasion of his approaching de-
parture for San Francisco, whittier he
goes for brief period. AT nine o'clock,
all being assembled in front of Mr.. May
nard's residence, the Phoebe Brass Band
opened with sweet strains of welcome
music, and at the close, cheer upon cheer
was given, followed by cries for May
nard." Thus solicited, that gentleman
came forward on the balcony, and in
few earnest, but well chosen words
thanked the assembled company for the
compliment paid him, and begged their
presence within to partake of parting
glass. Adjourning to the house, the
company was received in the kindest
manner by Mrs. Maynard, the charming
wife of the host, and most delight
full scene ensned Champagne flowed
on all sides, and many u witty speech
and sparkling bon mot signalized the fes-
tive hour. Again the band made the air
vocal with sweet sounds, and then,
order being requested by the master OF
ceremonies, Mr.. Tarpey, Henry Rives,
Esq, in behalf of the gentlemen present
expressed to Mr.. Maynard their high es'
timation of his character, their regret al
his departure, and their hope of his
speedy return. Mr.. Maynard, in re-
Spouse, said, in substance, that he had
endeavored, during his soiourn here to
do his duty to merit the esteem of all
and the enmity of none; and that 1t wal
especially gratifying to him that his re-
lations with the employees of the compa
ny he had represented had uniformly
been of most agreeable character
With more pleasant interchanges o.
friendly words, and parting glass t6
"speed the traveller on his way, the
company dispersed, the band playing
"Auld Lang Syne."
A STRAY SHoT.-Last night, at II
O'Clock, a shot was heard on Meadow
Valley street. There having lately beer
several little affairs in which pistols hat
been used, good many went to thu
scene of the supposed difficulty. Moth
ing, however, but flash, near Hanly
Theater, had been seen. Search for thu
brave man who had possessed courag
enough to fire his pistol off at nothing
was in vain. An officer was prompt,
ON the spot, and it is pity that the dis
turber of the peace was not to be found
It is very dangerous to disappoint tn
people of Phoebe in this manner. The
will not stand it.
