PREPARING TO LEAvE.-There is good
a.al of talk among our citizens of the
nav mines in British Columbia. and
many have announced their intention to
,rv their luck in the New FL Dorado.
The s F. Bulletin speaks very discour-
ooipolv Of the Stickeen country, and
strongly advises Californians and Neva-
dams not to venture there. This is very
rrobably excellent counsel. At present
ina ore without any information Of full
"" on,henticated character. We know
Nat the climate up there is very severe,
a ar M one should think Of going unless
he is we'll provided with means sufficient
~ taLe him there, and to return as he
wi,l most probably desire to do. Added
10 the long, tiresome and expensive
;ournev there is another draw back. The
treat doubt concerning the extent and
value of the diggings. In another por-
t;on Of this issue will be found some ex-
tracts from Victoria paper. The state
ments should be however, taken with
many grains of allowance. as Victoria
bas a powerful inducement to cause q
great excitement, as all who go must
visit that city, and the influx OF crowds
of travellers, all of whom must spend
more or less money. would greatly bene-
lit Victoria. So, therefore, it will not do
TO place implicit reliance in statements
coming from SO interested source.
From all we can learn there are plenty
up there and on their way to prospect
the country, and we advise those OF our
citizens who contemplate taking the trip
to at least wait until some definite relia-
BILE details of the country are furnished
by the pioneers.

COLD AGAIN.-Chilly Winter will not
leave us, and every day affords us some
unwelcome evidence Of his presence.
We really wish the old chap would make
up his mind to depart, and what is more,
carry out his determination. He is be-
coming wearisome guest.
CHIEF EAsT.-Yesterday We learned
that Mr.. Yule was appointed superin-
tenpent of this mine. We are pleased
at the appointment, which is judicious
one for the company, as Mr.. Yule is an
able and persevering man, Of undoubted
integrity and of much experience in the
business.
ALARM OF FIRE.-Yesterday one of the
cabins above Lacour street took fire, but
the timely application of pail of water
put out the flames. 1t was done so
quickly and quietly that there was no
alarm, and attracted but little attention.
HAULING by the big quartz teams has
been resumed, as the roads are now in
sufficiently good condition to permit
transportation.
We learn from A. Brown that the ball
to be given by the I. o. o. F., will be
open to all DESTROYS Of purchasing
tickets. No invitations will be issued.
