and reflects no little credit to the mechanical
skill Of the builder. celebrated millwnght,
by name s. b. Taylor, was employed to build
the mill, which is located about 800 yards below
the dam. Its dimensions are 2Ox5C feet and is
designed to cut from five to seven M. per day
The mill will be run by water power and has n
Turbine wheel, which will not be affected by
high water submerging it. All the machinery
was placed in position, excepting the cutoff
saw, the goth of Nov. A highly accompli shed
mechanic of rare abilities, by name NJ Il. Sou
der, took the contract to build the suspension
bridge This was completed about the Goth of
October, and is sc feet from bank to bank, and
is go feet above low water. The timbers were
hewn on the mountain and hauled by hand to
the steep descent to. the river, and then let
down by ropes to the desired place. This work
was necessarily slow and tedious, and attended
with many dangers. but fortunately no accident
occurred worthy of mention during the whole
course OF the work, until a few days since
Chinaman was killed by blast. After having
fired the fuse, and when but short distance off,
he stopped being uncertain whether the fire
would take effect, and was struck by q fragment
OF rock on the head VIII ch produced death
shortly afterward. Snow has been so deep this
winter that the company has been unable to
procure lumber to build the fume from the dam
to the mill, consequently no water could be
used to saw lumber. gang of Cinnamon and
hve or SIX white men have been engaged all
winter thus far blasting and grading for the
fume, which undoubtedly will be prosecuted to
rapid completion as soon as lumber can be
had. This company will furnish employment
for a large number of men, and as the expense
attached to such an enterprise figures up in the
tens of thousands, it is to be hoped that ready

proach to the bountful reward of which they

TWO FOES OF HEALTH.

Cold and damp are inimica to health and we
generally have an unwholesomo combination of
the two at this season. They penetrate the skin
and integuments and affect the muscular, gland
ular and nervous organizations, producing rheu-
matism, neuralgia, chills and fever, and where
there is a tendency to dyspepsia or liver COM
plant, provoking an attack of indigestion or
billiousness. The best advice that can be given
under such circumstances is to keep the exter-
nal surface of the body warmly clothed, and to
keep the internal organs in vigorous working
order with the most whole some and genial Of all
toncs, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Gradually
but constantly this famous invigorant is super
seding the adulterated liquors of commerce, as
a medicinal stmulant and corrective, in all parts
of the country. 1t will be happy day for hu-
manity, and it will surely come, when this pure
restorative shall have taken the place of raw
spirits as a stimulant in all our public and
private hospitals. 1t is not, however, merely n
harmless substitute for the fiery stimulants re-
ferred to- Its stimulating properties are not its
chief merits although in this regard it surpas-
ses all the unmedicated products of the still,
domestic or imported. The powerful influence
it exercises over the torpid and toneless stom-
ach, the disordered liver, the constipated bowels
and the relaxed nerves, render it positive spe-
cific in dyspepsia, liver complaint, intestinal
construction, nervous weakness, hypochonda,
rheumatism and seeplessness. All chronic
complaints are aggravated by cold moist at
mosphere, and it is tn erefore particularly neces-
sary for those who are afflicted with ailments of
this nature, whatever their type may be, to meet
this predisposing cause of sickness with a
wholesome antidote. Hostetter's Bitters should
be taken daily at this season by all persons Ia
boring under chronic ailments that tend to

INSTALLATION AND DANcE.-Last Saturday ev-
ening the Auburn Lodge of Odd Fellows held
public installation at their hall, which was large
ly attended and much enjoyed by outsiders. At
the close of the ceremonies, all hands retired to
the American Hotel and partook of fine lunch,
which had been prepared with much pains for
the occasion. After lunch the hall was cleared,
and all participated in the pleasures of social
dance until the clock indicated the presence of
the day of rest, which was warning for the
happy throng to retire. The whole affair was a
success particularly the dance, which, it is said,
was the jolliest and most sociable time had i'll
Auburn for some time. The only complaints
We have heard in regard to the matter, it did
not last long enough. We dare not think for a
moment that any one would be so unjust as to
attempt to impose on the sacred Sabbath or de-
lude innocent people into violation of the
Holy Writ by turning the clock back, though
We have heard it limited that such thing was
done on this occasion. 1t must be mistake

18th, gives these items of intelligence:
While Sanders and family who live one mile
south of here, were attending the funeral of
Charles Rice on Saturday afternoon last, their
home was entered by four footpads who over
hauled trunks, drawers, cupboards, ETC., taking
everything of value that could be carried con-
yeniently and departed. The robbery was not
discovered until late that night, SO the robbers
had ample time to make themselves scarce,
But the next morning Sanders, with Constables
"adron and Hotchkiss, got on their track and
captured them at Newcastle, and brought them
"a Oack to Lincoln. They were tiled before Justice
Clark to-day, and held to answer before the
grand jury All the stolen property was re-
covered Three of the prisoners are boys un-
DER 70; the other is a hard-looking nut aged
about 80.
Three Spaniards made a raid on o Chinese
inning camp, situated three miles south of this
pace, on last Thursday afternoon. They Sc
cured all the Chinamen-ab twenty in num-

FoG-For about one week Auburn was envel-
oped in adense fog. During the time the
weather was cold and damp. Noses as red as
roses were as common among even the Good
Templars as is usual among tipplars. The
cheeks of our young ladies when on the street
were red and rosy, and their eyes as moist as

SAVED BY DARKNESS Last Wednesday eve-
ming two young sports who represented them
selves from Marysville, were noticed hanging
around Roseville junction, waiting as they said
for the Eastern freight train to come along. As
the hour grew late they quietly settled them
selves for rest near the stove in the junction
hotel. They had but just become fairly relaxed
In their seats and ready to commence enioying
the comfort Of their position when the barkeep
disturbed them with ''come boys, you will
have to look to the elements for protection, as
want to shut the house." Drowsily they arose,
stepped out ON the platform, when on seeing a
light at Thomas hotel they made for it. Mr..
Thomas suspiconed them not. The hours
clicked away, until at last through the stiffness
Of the night the approaching train was heard in
the far distance. This was the signal. They
jumped up with cooked revolvers in hand and
before Thomas could realize that aught was
wrong, the deadly weapons were pointed at his
head. "Your money or your life, " they said in
firm but low tone. Thomas trembled as only
a man in his predicament could, but naturally
promised his money. "Get it," they said
"It's in the cellar At this juncture q move
was made to go down in the cellar to procure the
hidden treasure, when from some mishap the
candle-the only light in the house-went out.
This was Thomas salvation. He at once slip
ped behind the counter and commenced snap
ping his fingers in imitation of the noise made
by cooking gun. The would-be robbers think
ing themselves in danger scampered. In MAX
ing for the door one fell over bunch of chairs
and the other over hot stove, with no little
damage to themselves They ran across the
track and placed the train, which had just ar
rived, between them and their now enraged pur-
surer and thus saved their lives, as Thomas said
he meant to kill, il he had got in sight O
them. 1t is supposed they escaped on the train
as they have never been seen in that vicinity
since Thomas says that darkness is all that
saved them. The boys down there think ditto
