SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

The Sub.Treasury of San Francisco
has SIS, ZOO, 900 in it's vaults.
During last week the Eberhardt and
Aurora Company shipped twenty-five
bars of bullion, valued at 1886, 1856 06.
The Sheba mill shipped one bar, valued
at $1,299.47.
The total value of all the taxable prop
erty in White Pine county amounts to
81, 1893. 24S u. The real estate amounts
to 1924 8i5. and the personal property to
$773, 4O3.12, The amount of State and
county tax is 81 per cent. on the 800,
which makes the taxes amount to $45,-
443.O6.
On the 10Th the Hamilton Smelling
Company commenced feeding ore in the
furnace. and on the 22nd had thirty tons
Of very fine looking bullion stacked up.
The bullion will be shipped to San Fran
cisco as fast as teams can be had to haul
it. After this run is made the News
thinks it will be clearly demonstrated
that the ores of that district can be
easily smelted.
More big quartz teams are at present
to be seen on the streets of Virginia and
Gold Hill than at any time during the
past three or four years. Owing to the
low stage of water in the Carson River
many stamps in that quarter are idle,
therefore teams are in demand to haul
ore to outside mills-that is, to mills off
the line Of the Virginia and Truckee
Railroad. 1t looks like old times to see
the huge wagons. with their back
! actions" and their twelve, fourteen and
sixteen mules rolling along the streets.
! The Enterprise misses the jingling of
bells that was heard in the days of the
old mountain schooners.
Yesterday afternoon, about 2 O'Clock,
says the Virginia Enterprise of the 21st,
Thomas Nulty, teamster in the employ
of Sol, Noel, met with shocking acct
dent, which resulted in his death at s
O'Clock last evening. The accident hap
pened on the Divide, in front of the Em-
pire Hotel. Nulty was in the act of
coupling together two wagons that were
heavily loaded with ore, when the back
action, or rear wugon, suddenly surged
forward and he was caught between the
two ponderous vehicles and terribly
crushed in the region Of the lungs and
heart. The two wagons contained about
thirty-fve thousand pounds Of ore and he
was canght between the ends of the two
boxes in such manner as to crush in
the whole lower part Of his breast. He
was released as soon as possible, by haul
ing the front wagon forward, when he
fell to the ground with the blood gushing
in a torrent from his mouth. He also
bled from his ears and nose. Had he
dropped to the ground when he saw the
rear wagon advancing upon him, he
would have escaped all injury. but he
seemed for the moment incapable of
proper thought or action. and merely
held up his arm as though to ward of
the danger. The wounded man was
carried to room in the rear OF restau-
rant near at hand, where he was prompt
ly attended to by Drs. McMeans and
Weber. He was unconscious when
lifted from the ground, and so remained
up to the time of his death. He lost al
most sufficient blood to cause his death.
to say nothing Of the shocking manner
In which his chest is crushed in.

THE sUPERsEDURE OF HYMAN,

We are informed. uron the best au-
thority, that the order suspendinR p. G.
Hyman as Warden of the State Prison
was granted on the motion of Governor
Bradley. and was concurred in by the
Secretary Of State and Attorney General
simply to allow the fullest examination
into all the facts connected with the
Prison management which the Board OF
Prison Commissioners can institute.
We believe that two of the Prison Board
are Of the opinion that Warden Hymsn
will come out OF the investigation with
clean hands. but they declare that they
have opened the avenues for the hearing
of all the charges against him, and il
there Is suspicion lingering in their
minds that he is guilty on any of the
accusations preferred they will remove
him, But ii the Governor has conjured
mp unfounded charges against the
Warden the Attorney General and Sec
Rotary OF State will stand by him.
10 show that the experts appointed to
investigate the books of the Warden OF
the Prison possess the fullest authority,
we publish below their instructions,
which were drawn up by the Attorney
General:

discussing Grants last Cabinet ap.


pointment the 8. F. Bulletin says I:
"ChsndIer is political drab--a bibulous,
Ioud-mouthed, coarse politician. who had
bscome intolerable to his own party In
Michigan. We don't see that the Presi-
dent has mendsd matters by the appoint
ment of such O man. No doubt Chan
dler can do great deal of work during
the next six months in fixing up things.
II Grant is to bs candidate for another
term we can see how such man as
Chandler would be useful in putting mat
tiers in trim for the next National Con-
vention. But on any other theory the
appointment OF Chandler is inexplica-
ble." Chandler may be q loud-mouthed
man, likewise coarse and even intolera-
BILE to his party in Michigan. but be is
one of the shrewdest Of politicians, and
though defeated by Christiancy for the
Michigan Senatorship. yet he can be of
great benefit to Grant during the next
twelve months. The Bulletins "if I"
may be taken as neither q proviso or a
probability. Grant is most assuredly a
candidate for u third term, and a most
strong and determined one. Every &C.
ton OF his for the last seven months,
from his letter of May 3Oth to his equally
incomprehensible Des Moines speech on
the Goth ultimo, foreshadows his inten.
tions. There could be worse candidates
there will be better ones. and when the
time comes Chandler will most undoubt.
edly be hard at work for the man who
picked him up half forgotten from thu
slough Of political rejection and CAV
him place and voice in the councils o.
the Nation.

The Mobile Register ssys: - The
South was not originally responsible for
the bonded debt. This is true also as to
the abolition of slavery. Both are con-
sequences of the war. They are among
the results of the war that the South has
accepted. The South does not admit
itself to be in the position of conquered
territory. 1t claims that OF coequal in
the Union. To attempt, therefore. to
destroy the value of the bonds would be
as clearly an act Of bad faith as to try
10 re-enslave the negro" While the
first part Of this assertion may be open
to contradictory argument, it is certain
that the last sentence is sound doctrine.
The foolish attempt Of large proper
ton OF the Southern press to aid in
spreading the inflationists' communistic
system Of reputation is most unfair and
it is gratifying to note such evidence OF
justice on the part of leading Southern
journal.

DAYTON, June 8, 1875.
Ed. TIMEs:-Dear Sir: Think
ing a short epistle from this burg
might not be amiss, concluded to
write short account relative to
things generally. The town is as
usual prosperous, and the people
are happy and content like Swim
by's boarders.) The town is dull
during the day, as all that are will
ling and able to work get employ
ment, in getting wood out from
the river to the banks, where it is
corded up for sale, and also get
plenty to do by emigrating to the
hills-no great distance of. The
merchants are doing remarkably
we'll, taking everything into con-
sideration. The hotels are we'll
filed, and I assure you they set as
good a table, with all the delica-
cies, as they do even in Virginia
City. Gruber's Union Hotel is
first-class, and would be so con-
sidered even in the Bay cities ;
then Jaqua, who lords it over the
Golden Eagle, keeps up his lick, in
his usual style, and his wife, the
estimable landlady, contributes
largely to the comforts of the
guests. / must not omit, however,
to make mention of the Justly eel
ebrated Billy Brown, who general
ly presides at the bar-as genial a
little gentleman as ever graced a
position of the kind, and is de-
servedly popular. Gruber made a
good selection when he got Billy.
We have the best of you Silver
ties during the warm weather, from
the fact we have of plenty of shade
trees to shelter us from the suns
warm rays on the main streets,
and the shade is much better
among the private residences
where horses and other animals
cannot eat the leaves from the
trees and shrubbery surrounding
/ them. Truly yours,
