Ox-HIDE OF BEEF.-It may not
be generally known that a certain
party in Dayton has just put on pub
lie trial this elixir OF life, after hav-
ing for months successfully demon
sirated to himself and partner the
utility and originality Of the theory.
We are at liberty, through the cour-
tesy Of the proprietors, they having
secured letters patent, to make
the affair known to the patrons of
the TINES, that they may reap the
first and greatest benefits. The pro-
cess is simply this: The inventors
take an ordinary well built, fat four
year old steer or COW, and by feeding
to surfeit on all the fattening ele-
ments, promote the flesh of the OK
or COW, as the case may be, to COM
,plete and exquisite state of healthy
flesh. The bovine is then brought
out tor slaughter (care being taken
to not over heat in driving 10 The
pen) and killed by the most APP
proved method, by cutting the jugu-
lar and allowing the animal TO act
uaily bleed To death. This clears
the carcass of all clottcd blood and
leaves the flesh as pure and free
from all feverIsh influences as can
be. TIE hide is then quickly taken
of, spread out smoothly, and the
beet cut up into ordinary quarters,
which are at once taken 10 the
butcher shop and dealt ont To ca h
customers. This makes the finest
and most delicious beet in the
world, and Messrs Winzel II Camp
bell, of the Union Market Day
ton, are the only butchers in the
county who take the pains to supply
their customers with this most excel
lent quality of meat. The OK hide
OF the beef is shipped to Nollemeir,
of Virginia To be worked up into the
best miners boots in the State.

GONE TO PRosPEcT.--Our m CHI
valued friends, Mr.. and Mrs. l.. L..
Crockett of Dayton, will leave for the
East on next Saturdays train, to pay
a three months visit to Mr.. Crock
ett's father and other relatives rcsid-
ing at North Prospect, Maine. Mr..
9. is one of the principal capitalists
in this county, and so generously and
thoroughly identified with its inter-
ests and people that he and his esti-
mable wife will be much missed by
a circle of acquaintance which in
cludes a majority OF the citizens of
the county. We tender our friends
the best wishes of the TIMES for a
prosperous, happy and safe voyage
"the plains across to the Pine Tree
State, and hope the Prospect may not
prove so inviting as to detain them
beyond the length of time now an
nounced.

CORRECTION. - In noticing the
birthday of Miss Emma, daughter
of the we'll known Insurance Agent,
Mr.. NJ. j. Henley, of Dayton, we
through incorrect information
stated her age as eighteen, when she
is Just "sweet sixteen" The mis-
take in Mr.. Henley's initials are not
so serious a nature, as he is too
well known to be mistaken. We
hope Miss Emma will accept our
apology and allow us to further
hope that her succe eding birthdays
may all be crowned with as much
happiness as her last, and as the
pages OF time are folded back the
24th may be marked with sweeter
joys.

CHANGE IN THE JUsTIcE.-From
some reason AS yet unknown to us,
Mr.. John Dunn, late Superintendent
of the Justice Mining Company, has
resigned his position. The resigna-
ton has been accepted, and Mr..
JEFF. Mcclellan, late of the Daney
mine in this county, appointed
in his stead. Mr.. L. Mel. Bald
has been appointed Superintend-
ent of the WOodville mine. Mr..
John Dunn is looked upon by
those acquainted as one of the most
thoroughly posted miners on the
Comstock ledge, and within the
range Of our knowledge bears. a most
excellent reputation for ability and
energy in his profession and in
tegrity in his business relations. We
are sincerely sorry to see him give
up his position, as his efficient super
intendency has done much to bring
the Justice into favor on the Board.
We are personally unacquainted with
the new Superintendent, Mr.. McClel-
Ian, though we are told he is an eff
cient and well-informed miner, and
at one time was Superintendent
of the Justice mine. He has as
sumed very responsible position,
and has superseded more than ordi-
narily competent man, and for the
good of the Justice Company and
his own reputation, we wish him the
utmost success in his new and respon-
sible duties. Rock is now being
milled from the mine; the stock is
in high favor with those who have
opportunity of knowing the mine
and its resources best, and under
good manipulation the Justice will
soon become one of the dividend
paying mines of the lower Comstock.
While personal warm feeling for
Mr.. Dunn naturally causes US to
regret his retirement, we have none
but kindly feelings for Mr.. McClel-
Ian and the mines which he now
represents.

CHRISTMAS TREE MEETING.-We
have authority for announcing that
meeting of those concerned and in
terested in getting up Christmas
Tree for the children of Silver City,
will be held at the Silver City Public
School House on next Saturday af-
ternoon at o'clock. A large at
tendance is particularly desired, as it
is intended to have every child in
the city receive Christmas gift
from the contributions obtained.
This is a matter that should concern
every person residing in Silver City.
"God bless the little boys and girls"
should be the thought of all, and it
should be seen to that on this Christ
mas holiday no child, however OBJ
scure, should miss of having his or
her name called from the branches
of the Christmas Tree. A little mite.
no mater how little, if given the
little fellows in public us a Christmas
gift, will gladden. their hearts for the
whole day long, and cause them to
feel that, although nothing but chill
dren, the older heads have not en-
tirely forgotten them in their own
anticipated pleasures of the day.
Curtail the expenditures for cigars
ard Christmas libations, just. a little,
and give the little ones a jolly time.
Looking back through the buried
wears, how we'll one can remember
the feelings of the little folks rs
their bright faces and restless little
bodies gathered around the ever
green boughs of an olden Christmas
Tree, How eagerly each little
urchin watched with sparkling eyes
and watering mouths those who de-
tachcd and called out the dainty
presents of toys and goodies, stretch
ing every nerve in anxiety to catch
the sound of their names as the
precious fruit of the Christmas Tree
branches were being distributed!
Don't you remember the sorrowful
look of sad disappointment depicted
in the sweet face of that little boy or
girl who saw every gift disappear
into other little hands, and he or she
was left giftlesss9 Do not let this
occur in the distribution of gifts
here, for all the joy bestowed upon
the ninety nine would not atone for
the sorrow of the one hundredth little
clamorer who may be left to go
home empty-handed. Again, we say,
may the good Lord bless our little
folks. Give them bountiful Christ
mas Tree, good folks of Silver.
