SIX PAGE EDITION.

Coop REPoRrs.-Hugh Webster
and Geo. Midgeley, two citizens Of
Dayton, who are noted for theil
prospecting proclivities, have re-
turned to Dayton, bringing with
them large amount of specimens,
some of which are rich in silver.
They report having found one or
more lodges, of great width and
richness, but their whereabouts
they fail to disclose until they have
made what locations are deemed
necessary by them, and their
friends. Enough is known, how
ever, for us to state that the mines
are evidently situated in the noun
tains at the head of Ell Dorado
Canyon, where there has been little
prospecting. This is but another
evidence of the undeveloped wealth
of Lyon county. Since the dis
covery of the Pacific" ledge,
mention of which we made some
days since, which was disclosed by
the action of the water in the can
yon, prospectors are beginning to
believe there are mines in our
county, consequently the noun
tains are full of the hardy pros
pectors. Immense developments
will result without doubt. Already
We hear of locations being made in
several places. Some gentlemen
went out from Dayton on Sunday
last and found ledge about twenty
feet wide, six miles above town,
which shows large quantities of
mineral, some of which closely
resembles ruby or native silver.
While many are searching for gold
there are others content with coal.
Park Barnes & Co. were at their
mine making surveys yesterday.
They are sanguine that they have a
good quality of coal, and in suf-
ficient quantities to pay for devel-
oping the same, and to warrant
them in placing upon the mine ex-
tensive machinery for the working
of the same Systematically. So we
might say of the Virginia City Coal
Mining Company, and the Black
Diamond Coal Mining Company,
and others VINO have not incor-
porated as yet.

HUMANITY is full of failings
everywhere. There is no place
upon the green earth where perfect
things dwell. The best men and
women under the sun have their
weaknesses and imperfections.
Thus all should learn to look char
itably upon the errors of others, as
they cannot help being conscious
that they themselves are not
infallible, if they are possessed of
reason and the commonest kind of
common sense. There is much
that is good and pure in humanity,
as well as many things that are evil
and odious. 1t is unreasonable to
believe that all are treacherous and
false, because one person has
proved untrue, and it is unjust to
condemn one as having no virtue
or good in him because he has been
guilty of some error. Faith in
humanity is necessary to human
happiness, says an exchange. The
man or woman without it is the
most miserable of beings. 1t is
the basis of all confidence and
love, and life without these is dark
and wretched indeed. One may
make many good resolutions ant
break them all, and yet be an infuen
tial and useful person. He may b,
guilty even of gross improprieties
done in thoughtless and reckless
moments, and yet not be utterly
castaway. So long as there is lif
there is hope for him, and if other
were as ready to enumerate hi
virtues as they are to denounce hi
vices; if they would be as chart
able as they are meddlesome, tn
world in general would be far bet
ter by reason of it. In ever
human soul there are many grain
of good, that if stimulated and en-
couraged would bring forth worth
food in Gods good time. If on
is down there are plenty who stan
ready to throw mud upon him
rather than to reach forth help
ing hand to aid him in getting GU
of the mire in which he is wallow
ing. I have more honest faith to
day in some of Gods erring an
fallen creatures, than 1 have i
their pretentious and self-righteou
accusers, who, gathering their gar
ments about them, walk scornfull..
by, thanking heaven that they ar
better off in the world than thei
unfortunate fellow-mortals are.

ARIoN CONCERT Our local pro
tenn. got off a little in his review of
the concert given by the Arion So
ciety in Carson on Friday evening
last, but want of space precludes
lengthy comment in reply. Our
view of the concert, in short, is that
it was a very creditable affair, re
fleeing great credit upon the
musical director and his pupils,
more so than any similar concert we
ever attended. We hope to be able
to attend many more given by the
same amateurs.
