TAKING A VIEW OF H SITUA1ION.-W w.
NJ. Patterson, an old and highly respected
White FINER, made his appearance among
Ms the first of the week, and was warmly
welcomed by his old time friends. He
has already visited some of the leading
mines of this district, and pronounces
them, as all others do who visit them,
good in every respect. He is. accompa-
MED by Mr.. w. Guam of Philadelphia.
who comes to visit the mines of this dis
trict with a view of operating in them.
Immediately upon the arrival of Mr..
Ouapn here he was attacked with pneu-
monia; and is now confined to his bed at
the jackson House. where he is receiving
the best of attention. DIR. Thoma, his
physician. informs us that he will be out
in a few days if no reverses occur.
The INDIANS Levi III. Gheen of this
place, who has charge of the Western
Shoshone tribe, some time since notified
them to leave town, owing to the preva-
lence of scarlet fever. They all left, but
some have since returned, and yesterday
Mr.. Gheen again notified them to leave.
This ~precaution is commendable, as some
few cases of fever still exist in families
where Indian help has been employed.
Should the disease break out among the
Indians it would result most disaster
ously, for at present there are no means
on hand to provide forsuch a contingency.
SCARLET FEvER.-During the week we
have heard of but two new cases of scarlet
~place-both cases are children. All the
old cases of this disease are thought to be
in q fair way of recovery. Up to this
time no deaths have occurred from the
disease. Several of our old citizens
have been afflicted with colds and fevers,
but do not learn that any of them are
considered dangerously i'll. With the
above exceptions. Hamilton may now be
considered very healthy.
BENEFIr..-The many friends of Lizzy
Haupt. the little crippled girl, have been
exerting themselves the past week in the
sale of tickets for the ball on the Oath.
Anumber of ladies in Eberhardt City,
Treasure Hill aud Hamilton have inter
ested themselves III this truly meritorious
cause, and there is no doubt but that
their efforts will meet with success, as
all know that the ball will be largely at
tended and that the proceeds will fall
upon a deserving unfortunate.
CHERRY CREEK.-The Cherry CIR eek
Consolidated NJ. & M. Co.. G. F. Will
liams Superintendent, are having ore
from the E~xchequer mine worked at the
Thompson mill, under the superintend-
ence of Capt. Kimball. 1t was thought
the ore from this mine was too base for
mill process, but it has been demonstra-
ted that the ore can be easily worked,
and the mill is now turning out some fine
bullion.
WEArHER.-As faithful chron;clers of
passing events, we cannot be too compli-
mentary for the snow-storm that visited
us on Wednesday last. Without an ef-
fort to do the suject justice, we simply
say hat one of the finest snow-storms
9hat could be got up anywhere came
along On the above named. day, and
made everybody exceedingly happy-after
putting on overcoats.
New TUNNEL.--The San Jose Mining
Company, at Egan Canyon, are making
Preparations to start an extensive tunnel,
for the purpose of draining and working
their mine to better advantage. The
Burleigh drill will be used, the machinery
for which is now at the mine and is being
put up.
FUNERAL.-The funeral Of "A. j.. Brown
took place yesterday from his residence
on Treasure Hill, and was largely attended
by his numerous friends. He was buried
by the side of his son, in the graveyard
at the above place.
yIs1rINe.-D. P. Pierce, Superintend-
ent of the Egan mill, has been looking
at some of our leading mines. He is on
atour of inspection of the leading mines
