is negotiating for the purchase of the
San Francisco Assaying and Refining
Works and the acid mandatory con-
nected Herewith.
Up to last evening the United States
Sub-Treasury in this city had paid out
$l64 900 in gold coin for the the redemp-
ton of the ote of the National Gold
Bank and Trust Company.
1t now seems assured that Geo. M.
Pinney, late Purchasing Clerk of the
United States Navy, has fled the coun-
try. Charges had been preferred
against him for the making of fraudu-
lent Government purchases. He
has not been seen since cleo
ton day, and it is believed
he has sailed for South America. 1t is
stated that he took $4,000 with him.
He was n of the defendants in the
suit brought by the stockholders of the
Mahogany Mining Company against
the officers of the company for frauds
in its management, he being President
of the company. He leaves a wife and
four children behind him.

Wells, who was the highest recoe-

STEALINGS,

Rabbits have destroyed in the neigh
borhooa of 1870 acres of grain in Starr
valley this summer, i'm patches rang
ing from W to forty acres. They COM
mence on the fields as soon as the
young grain gets above the ground,
and never permit it to reach a height
OF over three or four inches above the
ground. All the valleys in Elko county
have suffered more or less from the
same cause, but none SO much as
Starr.
During the past ten days w. Il. Stew
art, the specimen gatherer, has made
collections in the counties of Lyon,
Ormsby and Washoe. The only re-
naming county in the State yet to be
visited is Storey. Stewart is now await
ing the return to Carson of State Min
eralogist Whitehill, who will probably
get here this week. We earnestly hope
that the Bonanza people may give the
collectors of specimens a hearty well
come and a supply Of ores worthy of
the Comstock.
The usual monthly dividcnd-sl0
per share-of the Consolidated Vir-
ginia Mining Company, was declared
payable on to-day.
Inc Board of School Trustees last
evening decided upon the choice of
Professor w. Kent for principal OF the
Gold Hill Public Schools.
An assessment of fifty cents per
share has been levied by the Leo Min
ing Company. 1t will be delinquent
October sth.
The Morse Il Evans Gold Mining
Company have levied an assessment of
ten tents per share, which will be de-
linquent October 18th.
The West Point Gold and Silver
Mining Company, OF C%alaveras coun-
iy, have levied an assessment of %
cents per share, which will be delin-
quent October Sth.
The Starr King Mining Company
have levied al assessment of Is cents
per share; delinquent October 9th.

A CIVILIZED INDIAN.
Captain pob's Rapid Progress ia
the Arts Of the White Man.

From the Virginia Chronicle, 9TH.
Captain Bob, still faithfully wearing
the same linen buster in which his
lusty body was incased when we made
his acquaintance eighteen months AGO.
dropped i'll upon us this morning.
Throwing himself into a chair CAPITA II
Bob placed his feet in another, and we
perceived that our Piute friend had be-
come the owner of a new pair of shoes,
manufactured some time during the
late war N of alligator hide. These
were the only changes in the attire OF
the Captain since his visit of six weeks
ago. The same shirt, the same plug
hat and the identical remnant OF II
ROSTERS feather in the band thereof
gladdened our eyes.
After a fixed stare of friendliness last
ing a full minute, Captain Bob broke
silence with:
"All Piutee man dead broke"
"Ah?n
"Yas. One year-las' Spring-heep
money-poker | catch all. Ha, hal"
[Silence and a furtive examination Of
the impressive editorial countenance.l
"Piutee man no money now-all
dead broke"
lRenowed silence and contemplation
Of the ceiling.]
81 dead broke. Cap Bob no money.
All broke"
Eyes again fixed on the editorial
lineanents, and then very innocently:]
~ no got two bits-no breakfast.
Ha. ha! All Piutee ma broke!"
When all this diplomacy had secured
the coveted quarter, the Captain picked
from the floor the bony fragment OF a
cow which he had brought in, and
grinning like n man who had got a
point on Ophir, he remarked, "Well,
so long; TEX care you salf"-and half
an hour afterwards his crust colored
face might have been seen making one
of a circle on the shady side of u lum-
Der pile, where an exciting game OF
poker was in progress.

CALLING THE ROLL OF WHITE
PINERS.

The Carson Appeal of the 9th pub
lished the following:
We are requested to call a meeting
for this evening, at 7 O'Clock, at Farrell
IL Kircnner's saloon, of such old resi-
dents OF White Pine county IS are liv-
Ing here. The object is to raise a force
of men here to go to the relief of
" Cleve" and his brave wife. or course
this call is not meant to exclude from
the meeting citizens who have never
lived in White Pine, but to the former
jewellers in that county is the invita-
ton especially extended. We certain
ly hope that there may be no trouble
experienced in raising a force Of volun-
teers from among tho able-bodied
young men of Ormsby county. 1t is
not at all impossible that the emergen-
cies Of this Indian uprising will de-
mand the services OF such Of our citi-
zens as can 20 to the front.

Every sensible person in the State
will concur in the following remarks
of the Reueille concerning the decision
of the Supreme Court on the issue
Joined between Eureka and Elko
counties:
1t seems hard and unjust that
through the fault of a careless or GRIM
inal Enrolling Clerk and the careless
ness of a Governor, a bill should fail
to become a law, when the expressed
intent of the Legislature Vas that it
should. This decision of the Supreme
Court sets an Enrolling Clerk above
the Legislature as a law-maker, and
while it may be constitutional law, is a
great injustice. OF course, the decis-
ion of the honorable and learned Su-
prene Court of the State OF Nevada is
paramount to the opinion of an editor,
but it appears to us that the decision is
founded on a mere bubble. The SUI
preme Court was perfectly aware OF
the intent of the Legislature and knew
that the Senate did enact the bill, for
which the journals Of that body are an
authority, and if the constitution must
be so strictly followed that a law must
be destroyed on a frivolous technical
ity, it were better to have no constitu-
tiotf at all. We say that the decision
of the Supreme Court, while it may be
in accordance with the strict letter of
the constitution, is a piece of fragrant
injustice.

from orr special war correspondent,
whose headquarters are in the saddle
and whose mission 1t is TO remain with
the advanced guard Of the forces under

Whatever peril to his own personal
safety. It will be see that the COM

Nor TRUE.-We are authorized to
state that the rumor for some time
prevalent here that, at . recent grand
council Of war, in Hamilton, DR.. Her.
rick advocated sending out a brass
band to soothe the warlike Goshutes
into subsection, is wholly and unquali-
fiedly false. The Doctor, it is true, in
connection with some grave military
problems, did, unconsciously, as is his
wont, hum over the familiar words of
the poet to the effect that Emusic hath
charms to soothe the savage breast"
but that he ever recommended
the calling Of brass instruments
into requisition is q vile SANDER, started
no doubt by some one envious Of his
well earned military fame. We make
this correction unsolicited by the Doc
tor, for the sim pie reason that we do
not desire to see one single laurel
plucked from his brow.
