NORTHERN ITEMS. - From Captain
Bledsoe, who arrived here yesterday
from Silver City, we learn the follow
ing: 1t has rained within the last three
days all along the stage line from Win
nemucca to Idaho. The New York
Mills at Silver City have started up on
rock from the War Eagle mine, and
regular shipments of bullion may be
expected from Silver hereafter. The
furnaces at South Mountain, which
have been shut down for some time
past, will fire up again next week. The
road to South Mountain, across Jordan
Creek, is again passable.

The TRUcKEE RIvER.--The Reno Jour-
nal, in what it calls " Scraps of Unpub-
ished History" says that the Truckee
river derived its name from Shoshone
Indian of that Eame who acted as guide
for a party of emigrants who started
from Council Bluffs, Iowa, to Califor-
MIA in 1874, one of whom was John
Flamboy, a Frenchman. As this name is
undoubtedly intended for John La Flam-
boy, who lived in this county for sew
eral years, we think the Journals III
formation relative to the naming of the
Truckee river is incorrect 10 many par
ticulars. John La Flamboy, who left
this comfy, where he had resided for
four or five years, for Shasta, Cali
fornia, where he formerly resided,
WAS half breed Pottawottamie,
who crossed the plains with Fremont,
and was with the " path finder " when
hC uioCOFtTtu Wudb NC CftllSu DdlIuOu
Trout River" One of Fremont's men
was Canadian named Truckee. who was
"A general ftvorite with the party. One
day while the party was camped on the
river Truckee accidentally fell into the
stream. at which the whole party
shouted Truckee,' and gave the
river that name to commemorate the
event, and that is the way Johu
La Flamboy says the stream got the
name of "Truckee. John was well
known to many old Humboldters, and
undoubtedly many of them have heard
him tell his adventures with Fremont,
and how the Truckee river got its
name.

JUROR FINED. NJ. Barrett, one of
the special trial jurors summoned to
be and appear in the Court room at 10
O'Clock yesterday morning, failed
to put in an appearance at the ap-
pointed time. The Sheriff was again
requested to extend an invitation to
Mr. Barrett and not accept mo" for
an answer, but escort him right into
court. The Sheriff performed that
duty and the juror having no legal
excuse was requested to loan the
county SIS.

RETURNED.-Dr. Bogman, who went
to the Rabbit Hole sulphur mine to
make q post mortem examination of
the remains of Sharp. returned last
night. The result of his examination
has not yet been made public, and prob
ably will not be until after he appears
before the Grand Jury, at whose request
the examipation was made.

TwADDLE. Waldo a. Julien indulge
in half column of twaddle about
cliques and Grand Juries. 1t is couched
in the choicest Billingsgate, and was
evidently written for the purpose of
displaying the proficiency of the firm
in the art of blackguardism.

LAW OF MARRIAGE. - AS several
marriages have been performed within
the past year within our State by min
listers of the gospel who have no
authority to solemnize the same, we
would call the attention of all parties
interested to the requirements OF the
statute regulating marriage. The min
lister must first obtain license from
the District Judge by procuring Gre
dentials that the said minister has
been regularly ordained in some re-
hglous society or cone regation within
this State. For the violation of this
statute, the minister may be fined in
any sum not exceeding $500, and i'm
prisonment until such fine is paid. at
least several of our exchanges.say so.

Massey. - Petroleum V. Nasty, of
Saints Rest, which is in the State of
New Jersey, was passenger on the
western-bound train which passed here
last evening He is travelling incognito,
and is going to California to recuperate
his failing energies. His real name is
Locke, and he is one OF the editors of
the Toledo Blade. The Democratic
tidal wave of last November seems to
have been too much for him, and
knocked the humor completely out of
his partisan correspondence from the
Confederate Cross Roads.
SUMNER TIME.-The summer time
table of the Northwestern Stage Com
pany goes into effect next Monday.
Stages from Winnemucca to Silver CITY
will then go through in thirty-eight
hours. At present, under the winter
arrangement, stages lay over one night

OK THE JURY.-Lawyers must have a
peculiar liking for printers as jurors.
A case is now being tried in the Dis
trict Court in which two members of
the craft are serving as jurors. This is
annoying, as the places of those men
cannot be filled without sending to Vir-
ginia City or perhaps California for
typos, and this would entail an expense
which the resources of a Sagebrush
journal do not warrant. Under the jury
system adopted in this State none but
few officials are exempt from jury
duty, which makes it very inconvenient
at times for printers. telegraph opera
tors and engineers on the railroad.
Steps should be taken in time to secure
the repeal of this law by the next Legis-
lature.

There is considerable excitement here
at present in regard to the unaccountablt
death of Il man named Andrew Will

and told his son to stay at MIR. Slpes
until he returned, that he would 90 and
help put up the hay, and if they got
done in time, they would 80 home that
evening and if not, the next morning.
He did not return that evening, and the
next morning search was made for him,
aud sometime in the i0repart of the day
he WAS found between Mrs. Sipes' and
the field he had intended to work

body of the tree, while one foot was rest

straw, the coupling of the tumblins shaft
caught his clothing or arm, and threw
him around with such force rs to tear his
right arm of ut the shoulder, except Il
small portion of flesh that still held
1t to his body; jerked hi lett
arm out Of place and tore his clothing
into strings. The hands were 50 badly
excited that they all left the yard except
two, and the horses were not stopped un-
til they had gone half way around the
track, consequently the tunbling shaft
made several revolutions before he WA
released. He died on Saturday from the
effects, and leaves wife and children
and many friends to mourn his loss.
We have had several fine days iol hur
vcsting lately, and the farmers have taken
advantage Of the opportunity, and have
put up considerable amount of hay.
The grain ha, mostly been thrc.hcd and
Is greatly damaged from the excessive
wet weather. The oat crop Is light, and
corn cannot be any other way.
