News is authority in matters pertaining
to the Comstock Lode and is received
here as such. but rs you never give CAL
ifornia street stock shsrps q shaks.up,
they have got tho impression that you
think they are Of little account in making
the Comstoek mines either a mighty big
thing or not worth a continental. Now
the fact is, our California street oper-
ators aren't TO be sneezsd at; anyhow
they think so; and II you could now
and then tell the sagebrush infants how
Ned Cahill had recuperatsd; Doc Fox is
tighter the grayer he grows; Bon Shsr-
wood could look rs pious as ever when
perpstrating a joke; Joe Jones bids for
virtue with tho cheek Of a brass monkey,
Joe King expressing himself by gestures
worthy a Piute Chief at q war dance or
Charles (of Hall K Charles) doing the
sober business for Miner Of your village,
they might become interested by getting
some fun through their old-time friends
being scorehed or put in the enviabls
position Of having more money than
they know what to do with. Then again
we lave Budd-ths Beau Brummsl-
who thoy have all heard about rs tho
best dressed man in the Board-room and
who turns John Gillig's stocks for him
by the thousands in the twinkling OF
an eye," or Ned Hall, who, though one
of the light weights, gives Myers, FORM
srly Of Virginia, Q send of by bouncing
Exchsquer or Bullion a half million a
minute" or Ned Eyre, who is now m
Of the staid and honest brokers who
does the heavy acts for Flood. O'Brien,
Mackey and Fair, and has recently gone
into fast trotting stock to draw his at
tention from the arduous duties devolv-
ing upon him as the chief OF those mil.
honaires. As most Of the Gold Hi n
Virginia operators seem to US a part n
portion OF all things connected with the
bulling or bearing transactions in CAL
ifornia street, and the members OF the
Board here are more or lsss acquainted
with the soldiers at the front, why not
introduce the less favored who deal in
stocks on a small scale to these experts
OF the Stock Exchange, who after fthe
miners) telling in the bowels OF the
earth all the day, can read in the columns
Of the NEWS at night the doings OF man
ipulators' agents at the center OF Er-
change?
/ don't propose to write you a long
letter for | know full we'll that you are

we'll say, California street miners are
cr~oss-cuttipg nearly every claim on your
lode from Union Consolidated on the
north to Daney or Rock Island at the
south. and during the week have found
either "a big assays or good indica-
tons, " In a.arly all the mines running
through the alphabet Of the one or two
ledge primer. In fact, it has been hot
ter work for the brokers to get through
with their business in regular hours
than il was for Bsscher to get through
his trial without being sponged of three
times a day with ice water.

down and talks as Economically as
usual, yet gives us to understand / n u

Baldwin only knows what Sam Cur
tbs tells him, and "Sam " has some
times been "coppered, " but since 1t has
become more generally known that
"Sam" was right all the way in Con-

John Gillig is also here, and plants
himself syory day near Budd in the
Beard room. There are numerous WE'LL
known stock sports here now from vir-
ginia and Geld Hill, marking the ebb
and flow of the tide, but Of whom l have

Vim. Sharon, who visited us Just long
enough TO make contracts for brick obs
used In building ths Palace Hotel, left

general that he is to DO your next U. S.
