THE INDIANS FEEL IT.-Indian
Charley, who for so long time past
has been doing the shining business
and serving as factotum at Zach 5
barber shop, has succumsed to the
discount on silver and the general
business depression. Yesterday he
deserted his stand and tried his luck
at Indian monte with some of his
brother Piutes. The result was that
in short while he was broke. He
was then chopfallen and disguised,
the same as any white man would be
under the same circumstances, and
charged his misfortune at cards to
the superior ski ! Of Indian Bob, who
is a professional sport among the
Piutes. Bob, he said, was too many
for any average Piute, and could beat
the general run OF white men at
monte. Charley was quite discour-
aged at the business outlook, and
declared that, were it not that he
wanted to remain here in or or that
his boy might go to school, he would
quit civilized life and go out to Pyra.
mid Lake and turn his attention to
catching the sprightly trout. He said
that he had not BACKED more than
three or four pairs of boots per day
for the past month; and these at two
bits pair would hardly pay ex-
peuses. Indian Bob is down here
from Virginia as the guest of Big
Natchez. The latter introduced us
to him the other day, and said that
any favors we might extend to the
visitor during his stay here would be
duly appreciated by himself and
his family Bob, in conversation,
said that he had just been to Cali
fornia. and had come down here to
give the boys q turn at cards. He
said he could win all the money he
wanted from the Silver City In
dams, as they were not posted as
we'll as their brethren Of Virginia.
He thought no more than a hun
dred and fifty dollars was possessed
by all the Indians in this vicinity.
We asked him what he intended to
do in case he won all of it, and he
said he thought he would take an
other trip to California, and take in
San Francisco while down there.
He had never seen the city. and
was anxious to know something
about it.

A PLEASANT SHowER.--We were
refreshed yesterday with pleasant
shower of rain late IN the afternoon.
The unusual sound of thunder for
these parts preceded the rain, and
the dust was nicely laid after the

seemed refreshed by the very agreea-
BILE occurrence. Ii we could have
shower once week or so il would
