DISCHARGED We understand that n
number Of men were yesterday dis
charged from work in the Eureka Con.
solidated mine. Owing to the present
state of the roads the teamsters find it
impossible to ship the ore rapidly ac-
cumulating on the dumps, there being
now over 1000 tons ready for shipment,
and this, combined with the scarcity of
coal, preventing the working Of the
furnaces to their full capacity, renders it
impossible to work full shifts in TIE
mine. AS speedily as the roads from the
mines and coal camps are once more in
a passable condition, the different com-
panies will again run their mines and
furnaces in full blast-a time anxiously
awaited by the miners, many of whom
have large families to care for, and who
are now idle Eureka Sentinel, 25th.
A FLooD. The Indians in this locality
predict great food as soon as the snow
accumulated in the mountains COM
mences to melt. All the valleys here
about will be filled with water, and if the
conclusions of the native philosophers
can be relied upon, the prospects for an
early Spring are very meagre at present.
The Indians are already making prepara-
tons to move in anticipation of the great
flow of waters soon to commence.- Eu-
reka Sentinel, Goth.
A GREAT revival is going on in Truckee
at the Methodist Episcopal Church,
under the direction of Rev. Mr.. Fitch,
of Virginia City, assisted by Revs. De
la Matyr and Kicker. Many of the old
sinners, says the Republican, who have
been mortgaged to Satan since the days
of 40, and have not seen the inside of a
church since those days, are being seri-
ously awakened to their spiritual condi-
ton ard are seeking salvation in the
proper way.
PREPARING FOR LIVELY SEASON
Throughout the city there has already
been commenced very considerable
amount Of overhauling and repairing of
stores, shops, saloons and other places
of business, in anticipation of lively
times as soon as Spring arrives in good
earnest. Carpenters, painters, plaster
ers, and other workmen in their line will
now be in brisk demand until the regu-
lar building season shall arrive, as our
people have passion for tearing down
and building up-for overhauling, re-
fitting and rejuvenating. L Virginia En-
prise, Gath.
ALL the miners in the employ of the
Arizona Association, says the Winnie
mucca Register of FEBRUARY 20, have been
discharged, and the mine shut down; in
consequence thereof, all the mills in the
place are closed, except one which is
kept running on tailings. They were
forced to close the mine for the reason
shat the snow was so deep that it was
found impossible to use the tramway.
GONE TO MEXICO. - Jacob Decker,
formerly bar-keeper at the Sazerac, and
Charles Womble Shorty, left last night
EN- route for the City of Mexico. with the
intention Of opening large saloon in
that city on the American plant Eu-

ANOTHER PIONEER GoNE.- Died in
Carson, at eleven o'clock last night, Of
pneumonia, VIM. F. Wilson, better
known as Billy Wilson. The de-
ceased was a pioneer stage man Of this
section, and drove the first coach that
ever made a trip between Carson and
Virginia. He was man of indomitable
energy, and seldom, if ever, missed
trip, whether in sunshine or in storm.
Being possessed of generous hearted i'm
pulses, he was ever ready to make any
personal sacrifice for the comfort OF
those who travelled with him. He was
widely and favorably known throughout
this section, and there are very many
warm friends who will miss Billy Will
