BARN BuRNED.-On Wednesday hight,
between nine and ten o'clock, barn oal the
farm belonging to Mr. Abraham Shtrtzer,
adjoining his home place, near ChuEchvillc
took fire and was burned to the ground
Four mules persisted in the flames and 10
or IL tons of hay, some agricultural imple-
ments &c, were also consumed The barn
was insured in the Hartford Mutual Company,
for $1,000, No insurance on the contents.
The origin Of the fire is not positively known,
but is is supposed to have been caused from
a lantern that had been carried into the barn
shortly after nightfall, when the mules were
fed. The dwelling house on the farm is I'M
occupied, and the fire had gained great head,
way before Mr.. Shcrtzer or any of his neigh,
bors reached the spot.

CANDLEMAs DAY.-Monday was Candle
mas Day, or the Feast of the Publication. 1t
receives il name from a very ancient custom,
which still prevails, of Lighting up churches
with candles and tapers, in remembrance OF
the Saviour having been declared. to be "a
light to tighten the Gentiles" In the Roman
Catholic churches, the candles to be used in
the church services throughout the year, are
blessed upon this day.
The superstition exists that if the ground
hog comes out on Candlemas day and sees
his shadow, he rctircs again to his hole, pre-
pared for nap of five or six weeks longer.
If his shadow can not be seen, he takes it for
granted that the heart of the winter is brol,-
en-, and that spring is near at hand. No SEN
sible ground hog would have left his hole on
Monday, and if he had he must have doubted
the truth of the prediction, as the day was
one of the worst of the season. and he could
not possibly have seen his shadow.

DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION FOR GOVERN
oR.-As will be seen by our Annapolis let
ter, the caucus of Democratic members of
the Legislature held on Friday night of last
week nominated Hon. James b. Groome,
of Cecil county, for Governor In common
with many other Democrats, we had hoped
that that honor would rest upon our dstin-
guished fellow citizen, Hon. Henry W. Ar
cher. We believe, too, that such would have
been the case, ifthc wishes of the majority
Of the Legislature had been carried out
But it appears that in the temporary absence
OF a number Of members of the Legislature,
who were favorable to the election of Mr..
Archer but who were detained at home by
sickness and other accidents, the caucus was
called II has been the usual custom, we be-
licyc, TO admit, in caucus, the votes of absent
members by proxy. AT least ten of the alb
scntces had left their proxies to be voted in
caucus for Mr. Archer but when the caucus
met, Mr.. %roome's friends constituting Il
majority of those present, carried 4 motion TO
reject voting by proxy and Mr.. Archer's
name was consequently not presented in the
caucus.

A TRIBUTE TO \ PAsToR.-The Rev. J. G.
Moore, of the NJ. Z. Church, Il gentleman
well known in the eastern section of our
county, but for the last few years resident
OF Baltimore county, was on Friday evening,
the 23d ult,, visited by the members of his
charge, in large numbers, each one bearing q
giftfor their pastor. A correspondent whose
communication We have been compelled to
abridge, says:
l shall not attempt to enumerate the
many gifts, but suffice it to say that he will
have no need of visit from the miller, butch
er, poultry dealer, or grocer for many days
to come. In connection with this he was
the recipient of a handsome purse, which in
these panic times, is no rnweicome yistant
The ladies who came with the party asked
for control Of the kitchen and dining room
for the evening. This was granted and very
soon lengthy table groaned beneath an
abundande of many things of goody char
actcr But the table did not groan long {;
there were many willing burden bearers
present, and each one came, received and
went away rejoicing. Upon the conclusion
OF the supper the many friends repaired to
the parlor and spent the evening pleasantly
in terse speeches and hearty singing. At ten
O'Clock the long metre doXology was sung
and the bencdiction pronounced. As these
are generally The finale of religious meetings,
so did they close this pleasant entertainment,
which will serve long as another ray in the
ministers sunshine"

TIE Alpine Miner says that SO far as
Its civil and political status is concerned,
Alpine county belongs to the common
wealth of California. But in every other
relation 1t IS most essentially part and
parcel OF Nevada. Commercially our
whole trade, business and intercourse is
with Carson City, the enterprising CAPT.
tai OF the Silver State. Socially we are
as unmitigated "sage-brushers" IS the
Arabs who wander over the deserts of
Eurek aud Humboldt. Our mines are
richer, but otherwise identical with those
of Phoebe and Virginia City. Geo.
graphically We are cut off and separated
from the real natural California as COM
pletely as any part of Nevada. All our
timber and agricultural products that 60
ont of the county find a market at Vir-
ginia or Carson. Our citizens cannot
even get TO California without first going
to Carson City and starting from there.
True, there is good road over from the
western slope of the Sierras by way of
the Big Trees, but it is never travelled
Our destiny, therefore, is necessarily
linked with that of Nevada. We have
often been told that il our mines were
only in Nevada they would be worked
and made the source of great wealth.
They can and will be worked here, and
that too, as cheaply as any other place
on this side OF the mountains.
