Register and Receiver, Carson City, Ner.:
Gentlemen This Office has examined
the papers tilei in case of the applica-
ton of Thomas Lyons for patent for the
NrKibben lode. situate in Virginia Min
ing District, Storey County, Nevada.
1t appears that a large portion of the
claim in question (Survey No. g., T. II
n, r. 81 E.. Mt. D. B. & NJ is within
two thousand feet of the proposed line
of the Sutro Tunnel, and hence affected
hv the provisions of the Act approved
July %, 1866, entitled Ian Act granting
to 4. Sutro the right of way, and grant
ing other privileges to aid in the con-
s.ruction Of draining and exploring
tunnel to the Comstock Lode in the State
OF Nevada"
The second section of said Act pro-
yides that "the said A. Sutro. his heirs
and assigns, are hereby granted the right
to purchase at five dollars per acre. such
mineral veins and lodes, within two
Thousand feet on each side of said tunnel
as shall lie cut, discovered, or developed
by running and constructing the SAME
through its entire extent.
Provided that the Comstock lode, with
its dips. spurs and angles, is excepted
from this grant, and all other lodes, with
their dips, spurs and angles, located
within the said two thousand feet, and
which are or may be, at the passage of
this Act, in the actual bona fide posses
sion of other persons are hereby except
ed from such grant, Andthe lodes here
in excepted other than the Comstock
lode, shall be withheld from sale by the

abandoned or not worked, possessed and
held in conformity to existing mining
rules, or such regulations rs have been
or may be prescribed by the Legislature
of Nevada. they shall become subject to
such right of purchase by the grantee his
heirs or assigns.
That portion of Mr.. Lyons claim
which lies within said two thousand feet
limits cannot be patented. the same be-

THERE is an old story about a man

THERE is an old story about a man
who had been shipwrecked and cast
upon the shore of New Jersey, who.
upon his reaching dry-land, was I'M
mediately collared By . minion Of
the Camden and Amboy Railroad and
ordered to produce ticket emitting
him to travel on that highway. and
who, upon confessing to be without
such ticket was at once unceremoni-
ously chucked overheard and told to
Swim on What was done the
other day, in Boston, upon the ar
rival there of the people who were
shipwrecked on the -4tlaatic some
how reminds us of that Jersey story.
The said rescued persons were nobly
provided for by the Bestonians;-
which fact should entitle them to i'm
munity from criticism. perhaps-but
one can't help observing the repeti-
ton OF the irrepressible Bostonian
propensity to impress the wonders OF
the Hub upon the mind of the visit
or-whether the stranger be lion
hunter from the potato patches Of
the Aroostook or kelp covered mar
iner dripping from the iahospi;able
waves Of the iron bound coast OF
Nova Scotia. The dispatches tell us
that the aforesaid rescued persons.
after having been eorraied aud talked
10 in Faneuil Hall and humanely
clothed and made comfortable We're
marched through the burnt district.
escorted by Il squad Of the police.
This is just the least bit preposter-
ous--as if the shore people were mt
willing that the shipwrecked people
should have it to say that themselves
had II onopolised all the perils OF life
AS if the sight exhibitors OF the
Hub we're MT willing to concede that
Boston could be outdone even by the
raging tempests of the ocean. And
then the eagerness with which the
Boston relic-hunters went for that
lads autograph IS characteristic of
the place. But they stuffed the
boys pockets with liberal pellets Of
stamps, thus showing that their curl
osity had MT overcome their gener-
Gus impulses. They are a peculiar
people, these Boston Yankees but
their ways and notions are vast i'm
p-nvement on the Deviltries of Cas-
tie Garden and the shanghaing OF the
Burbary Coast.
