HUMBOLDT COUNTY ITEMs.-We clip
these items from the Silver State of the
Goth:
About two years ago young, beauti-
full and accomplished girl arrived from
the East, and became housekeeper for
her uncle, Amos Gustin, a bachelor. who
is engaged in farming IN Paradise Valley.
The young lady was the center Of attrac-
ton in the valley, and considerable III
valry existed among the many suitors
who sought the favor of her smiles and
pleaded for a place in her affections. At
last one was successful. II. F. James
became her accepted lover, and on the
4th OF July last led the young lady to
the altar, where they pledged fidelity to
each other and promised to love and to
cling to each other in sickness and in
health forever. Time rolled on and the
young couple lived together in peace
and harmony until about the first OF the
present month when the six months
bride gave birth to child. This led to
inquiries on the part of the husband,
which elected the rather startling infor-
nation that his wife's uncle was the
father Of her child, he having it is al
legged, seduced her previous to her mar
rage. A charge of incest was preferred
against Gustiu, who was arrested and adj
mitted to bail on SO, 600 bonds to appear
for examination some time next month.
The accused, We understand. says the
story Of his seducing the girl is false and
that it is plan to rob him of his prop
erty-and this is how that very singular
affair stands at present.
Some time ago we mentioned the sale
and incorporation of the Eagle mine, and
upon the authority of persons interested
in the mine stated that work would be
commenced by the new company imme-
diately. Owing, however, to some mis-.
understanding, the sale was not CON-
pleted, though portion of the purchase
money was paid and work was not COM
menced as soon as anticipated. But
there is n &, longer any doubt about the
sale of the mine. The deed for the prop
erty was signed, sealed and delivered q
few days ago, and work on the mine will
soon be commenced.
Congressman Kendall has succeeded
IN having post routes established from
Orena, by way of Batavia (kelief Dis
trict), to Bolivia City, and from Mill
City to Central Mining District. Mail
communication between the places named
is demanded by the rapidly increasing
population Of the mining camps of Ba-
tavia, Bolivia and Central.
During the past few weeks great
many miners have been arriving at this
place, from different parts of this State
| and California-and some from the
States. All get work within few days
after arriving, which is good indication
of the increasing liveliness of the times.
An immense body of rich ore was
struck in the Peru mine last week. This
mine is situated about two miles south
of town, and the work is under tho
supervision of E. ID. Kelley, one Of the
principal owners.

had pistol and large knife on him.
The charge against him is for an assault
with intent to murder The affair caused
much excitement on the streets.
The British man-of-war Fawn arrived
this afternoon from Victoria.
Rumor Denied.
SALT Lake. Feb. 4.-The report from
New Mexico Of trouble between Indians
and Mormons is incorrect. The report
no doubt grows out of a difficulty some
DAYS ago between some miners ana Nav
ahoes in Grass Valley, Utah, in which
three Indians were reported killed.

Shipments Of ore last week: Flagstaff,

Heavy Snow in Lander County.
AUSTIN, New. Feb. 4.-The recent fall
OF snow is unprecedented in this section
since its settlement. The snow is up
wards of four feet deep on the summit,
and all stages are greatly delayed. Snow
plows were used to clear the streets Of
snow in this city to-day, and many citi-
zens were shovaling. Serious apprehen-
sions are felt for the safety of cattle in
neighboring ranges, and it is thought
that those in poor condition must
surely perish.

SHOOTING IN OGDEN.-The particulars
Of another Ogden shooting scrape are
published in the Junction. 1t appears
that Mr.. Lewis family had been occupy
ing till recently rooms in the same build
ing with D. Wood wine dealer. A few
days ago Lewis purchased Wood turni-
ture, and the latter's occupation of the
premises ceased with the sale of the
goods. On Thursday evening Wood re-
quested of Mrs. Lewis the privilege of
sleeping in her kitchen, and upon being
refused, he went away and purchased a
pistol and double barreled shotgun both
loaded About 10 o'clock, after Mr..
Lewis had retired to bed, his wife insisted
that she herd noise up stairs, when
Lewis got up, found night Waterman W.
III. Clark, and the two started up stairs,
when they were commanded to halt, and
Immediately q shot was fred from the
head of the stairs, three buck shot strik-
ing Mr.. Clark. Other policemen were
called in, and Wood, who stood with his
gun cooked ready to fire again, was fin
ally persuaded to surrender, on promise
that be would not be killed. Wood had
been accustomed to excessive drinking,
but he ceased the habit a few days since,
and it is thought the sudden cessation
unsettled his mental balance. Clark was
not dangerously wounded

The FARMERS MovEMENT.-Thc New
York Nation reviews the rise, progress
and present condition Of the farmers
movement, and reaches the conclusion
that Notwithstanding the revolution 1t
has created IN political and business cir
cles, it must be regarded as failure.
The nation does not question the magni-
tude of its effects, however. 1t observes
that the progress of the farmers move,
ment has been felt among the industrial
classes of all kinds-the professional
classes, the manufacturers, the import
ers, and even the stock brokers. lndi-
rectly il has helped to cause great dis
turbance in the financial world, and
through its effects on stocks and all rail
roads securities, not an individual in the
United States, from the politician, railroad
man, pork man, moving machine manu-
tacturer, to the physician, lawyer, cler-
gyman, trustee of the widow and or
phans, but has been made to feel how the
uprising Of down-trodden class comes
home to mems business and bosoms.
And yet, Notwithstanding all this, the
Nation regards the movement as having
failed, failed so completely that there
is now little interest i'll the subject. No
shipper expects to ship his goods
any cheaper during the coming year
for it. no traveller expects to carry
his wife and family to the seaside
or the mountains at any less cost for it.
no one who had hand in the passage of
the Illinois pro-rata law has the slightest
expectation that it can ever be enforced !;
no railroad man believes that it will pre-
vent his watering his stock; no newspa-
per editor any longer in private conversa-
ton-what he writes is, of course, an
other matter-professes to find it seri-
Gus subject. The Nation, however, be-
| lieves that the organization which the far
mers have effected will be maintained,
chiefly for the reason that the modern
| tendency in all classes and interests is in
the direction of like organizations. This
is probably II correct view on the whole
| but if the movement is failure, politi-
cally, it is in order to inquire what be-
comes OF those Dolly Warden organs
which are relying upon the cooperation
Of this very movement TO elevate them.
selves to power as national party? The
Nation has character for accuracy in
making forecasts equaled by that oiSnc
other journal in this country; and should
its opinions in this matter be as correct
as its opinions generally are, il woult
seem that the occupation of the Califor
MIA Dolly Nardens was gone, even before
they have clearly established the fac. o.
