on these mines, which consist Of the
following original locations, viz: Gen.
eral Lee, Wide West, Stonewall, Web
foot, Consul, Dewey, Alabama, Blue
Mine, and Ozauke, and extending
along the ore belt some 1000 feet or
more north from the Richmond mine,
has lately been actively resumed under
the superintendent of j. G. Powell,
one of the Oldest miners in this district,
with good prospects for success. An
engine, with hosting works, has been
put up on the Wide West location; a
shaft sunk to the depth of $50 ieet has
already developed a we'll defined vein
of ore, assaying over 500 to the ton,
portions of which have been reduced at
the Atlas and Richmond works. We
hope soon to see the mines of this
company taking rank with those of
Ruby Hill, the Dunderberg and others
which have added so much to the rep
utatiOn of Eureka and the wealth of
the world, and unless all signs fail il
will no be long until they make A
showing equally as satisfactory as the
celebrated properties mentioned. STU

which assays $3.50 per ton. We also
learn from the same source that a con
tract has just been let for sinking the
main shaft fifty feet deeper. The whole

with the property doubts tsat other
splendid developments will shortly be
made.
VIVIAN To-NIGHT.-Vivian's Troupe
arrived last night from Austin, where
they performed four nights to crowded
houses. They will open this evening
at Bigelow's Hall. Mr.. Vivian as a
protean artist has no superior on the
stage, and those who attend will he
treated to a rare entertainment. We
have witnessed his performances in
California, and unless he has greatly
deteriorated since his arrival in the
sagebrush, the following from the Req
ellie of Wednesday is doubtless cor
rect: 'Another crowded house greet
ed Mr.. Vivian in his parlor entertain
ment, at international Hall, last even
ing. The word crowded." however,
hardly expresses an idea of the mum
Der of people in attendance, for the
hall VAS in "A condition in which we
sometimes see n fellow-mortal-full;
it was fairly packed with people. AS
on the previous occasion, the perform
aiice gave the utmost satisfaction to all
present; the ladies' pronounced Mr..
Vivian Il real funny man, and the
gentlemen declared him "A whole Ieam,
with a wagon and back action thrown
in. Another entertainment will be
given this evening, when there will be
an entire change OF Trogramme. To-
night is h last but one Of the stay of
this troupe in Austin. and none should
lose the opportunity of seeing and
hearing the most talented and versa
tile artist that has ever visited Austin.
LIGHTNING CHESS PLAYERs.-Last
evening. while skirmishing for items,
we dropped into the office OF the A..
aud p. Telegraph Company, where We
found Bob Morrison deep in the mys-
terics of a game of chess which he was
playing with Charley Ayers, the w. u.
operator at Palisade. The o = were
communicated by telegraph, aud,
judging from the position of the figures
upon the board, we should infer that
the Humboldt army was getting the
worst OF the battle. Eureka had only
lost a Gospel sharp, vaquero, and a
couple of ~coalBurners, while the Pail.
sadean lines were thinned to the ex-
tent of n strong-minded female, a
couple of round houses and four or
five railroad conductors, Stanford
himself was held in check by a Base
Range mining superintendent and a
doubtless be enabled to chronicle a
victory for the Base Range in o-mor
rows issue.
