1t has long been matter OF wonder that
Nevada, being the richest of the silver
producing regions, and with rich gold de-
posts all around her, has not, as
yet, cut any figure in gold produc-
ton. It has been surmised--and cor
rectly, we think-that this may be ac-
counted for from the fact that gold has
been but little prospected for between
the Sierra Nevada and the Colorado.
But the promise now is that Nevada may
yet become famous for gold quartz min
ing. We are told that rich and we'll
defined auriferous vein has been discov-
cred about sixty miles north of Phoebe, O
few miles this side of Sacramento dis
trict. We hope the report may prove
true.
BULLION ROBBERY. II Last Tuesday
night four bars of base bullion were taken,
by thieves, from the Phoebe assay office,
at the head of Meadow Valley street. The
scoundrels effected an entrance through
an air hole which ventilates the assay
furnace, departing through hole through
which the ashes is thrown out. The bul.
lion stolen is of an inferior quality, as
the purer metal is never kept in the office.
1t was secured in box; the cover OF
which was forced off, and broken. The
kleptomaniacs were tracked over the hill
in the direction of Bullionville where all
traces were lost.
ENLIvzNING.-A lively skirmish oo.
Cured last evening, on Lacour street, be-
tween q couple Of the nymphs du pave.
After few rounds, in which they mod

tenn was not brought into display, the
combat was closed by third party, of
the same sex, caroming on the head of
one of the beligerents with porter bot
tie. This was the means of ending the
disgusting scene, as, at the call of "time'
the recipient of the missile was ''groggy'
and unable to put up her props"
