MANHATTAN BULLION.


from Austin, yesterday, stating that
the Manhattan Company had shipped
on that day bullion valued at Sl3, 800,
making a total for the month of Sep
TENDER of Sl3l 500. In these days of
assessments it is cheering to see a min
ing property standing on its W bot
tom as solidly as the Manhattan does.
For nine years the mines of this com
pany have poured out a steady and un-
interrupted stream of bullion, an as
sessment never having been found
necessary. Nearly all tie mines conn
prising the series owned by the Man
haitian Company, thirteen sets of hoist
ing works, the twenty-stamp mill,
foundry, machine shops and the other
appurtenances which make up this,
one of the most complete and exten
sive mining properties in the State,
were purchased with the actual pro-
ceeds of the mines, besides which a
large debt, incurred in the original pur-
chase. and three dividends hav been
paid from the same source Manhat-
tan is good for another one-dollar diyi-
dend next month; and, we think, for
many months to come; as, beyond a
doubt, the mines of Lander hill are as
permanent in their character as mines
can possibly be, and as depth is attained
a steady improvement is shown in the
width and strength Of the veins and
the quality of the ores, which on an
average are the richest silver ores pro-
duced IN Nevada.
THE CONVENTION TODAY. - The
Republican County Convention will
meet at the Court house at III O'Clock
to-day to nominate a county ticket.
The Convention will consist of eighty
delegates, and it is probable that every
precinct in the county will be fully
represented. Appearances indicate that
the contest for several of the positions
upon the ticket will be hotly con-
tested, and the probabilities are
that the usual Inoun of soreheads
will be found at h front upon the
adjournment of the convention. The
party has plenty of material in the
county from which to construct an
excellent ticket, and 1t is to be hoped
that such a one will be selected, for in
that case the people of the county will
he sure of a good set of officers, the
other convention having presented an
~unexceptional ticket. We will in to-
morrow's issue give our readers a full
report of the proceedings.
