The new and rich bonanza recently
| developed in the Eberhardt 4 Aurora IL
in virgin ground, anl will require some
time to determine its extent. There is
one thing positively known about II,
however, that directly under the new
body OF ore found. ut u depth Of l05
feet. there was ore in the old workings,
and 1t Is probable that this new body
will connect with that. We are hopeful
that new discoveries will be made be-
tween now and nsIt Spring that will
astonish every one. except those who
are working on the Hill and have strong
faith In the existence OF a great mine
there. The Eberhardt & Aurora Com
pany IL sinking q working shaft, which
IL now down a depth OF GOO feet. and
the indications arc very flattering for
striking n body OF ore almost any day.
When this OCCURS. then the prob.
lem Of the ''ore not going down."
will DO solved. and every company
owning mines on the Hill will DO
ready and willing to 60 down. II Is
stated that several San Francisco com-
panies are only waiting for the Eng
iish Company to do the prospecting.
when they hope to reap the benefits OF
Il. From Capt. Drake We learn that
his company intends doing u great
amount Of prospecting this Winter. both
in sinking and drifting. The old work.
ings Of this company are very extensive,
some OF which have never been touched
for years, and by further Developments
the chances are very favorable for dis.
covering other chambers Of ore that now
lie hidden. ,,
The lessees OF tho Elko mine have
Just struck IL richer than ever. We
were shown some beautiful specimens OF
the ore on Tuesday last that were to be
rent TO San Francisco. Tho body Of
ore they are o working upon IL
worth from 5000 to $500 per ton,
and there il a large amount OF IL now
In sight. II IL thought that further do
velopment will expose IN immense body
Of ore.
The Taylor mine and mill sites. at
Taylor District, in this county. were
sold . few days ago 70 the Martin White
Company for $4,000 cash. Ton tons
Of ore taken from the Taylor mine we're
sold to the Martin White Company at
800 per ton. and by thom sent to
San Francisco to be worked. which
yielded . little over $500 per ton.

Hon. j. B. VAN HAGAN.-The naine
of J. b. Van Hagan, Assemblyman
from Phoebe, having been u~nfavorably
mentioned in several papers in con-
nection with the disgraceful proceed
ings in the Assembly on the last night
of the session, the Carson Appeal says
in reference to the action of that gen.
tleinan:
The occurrence which has caused
the most profiise comments upon the
night sitting OF the Assembly, was the
personal quarrel between Van Hagan
(Democrat), OF Lincoln, and this am
Doctor Hogan, whose name figures so
often in the history of these scandal
Gus proceedings. The House was in
an uproar at best, and Hogan was on
his feet, as usual, effervescing frOth,
fustian and fiddle-faIdle. Somebody
behind him (his desk was on the
Democratic side of the House) made a
noise, in%terrupting Kim. He turned
toward Van Hagan (who, though a
Democrat, took nc part in the disgrace
ful doings OF his party associates and
their allies, and who is a gentleman
and always)a and said, pelu-
lantly, that he would thank the gentle
man (neaning Van Hagan) to behave
like a gentleman. On the spur of the
moment, and stung by the undeserved
insult, Van seized the nearest book and
flung it at Hogan's head. TO be sure.
this was an unparliamentary perform
ance, but it was a Thousand times more
excusab,e, and a million times more
