From Mr.. Bernard, says the Phoebe
Journal Of the 5th. who arrived last
night from Hike, we learn that the
mines at that place are all working and
many being prospected. The Hike
Mining Company are extensively open
ing their mines, under the supervision
of Charles Heath, and by Spring it is
expected sufficient ore will be- taken out
to keep the companies mills running
steadily during the Summer months.
The ledge in this mine is gradually get.
ting larger as developments are made
and the indications are that a fine body
of rich ore will soon be struck. The
Crescent mill. that was being run at
that place by Mr.. Bidwell, has been re-
moved to Ivanpah. where it is to be
erected for the working of ores at that
place. This mill was owned by an
Eastern Company, but it became in
volyed in litigation a short time ago,
and was consequently sold by the
Sheriff.
We learned yesterday, says the Pi
oche Record of the 9Th, that everything
in regard to the sale of the Floral mill
had been completed; that the lien-hold-
ers had been secured in all their money
and that numerous transfers had been
made, the money paid TO the lien-hold-
ers being the amount allowed by the
Supreme Court of the State, together
with the interest on the same up to
date. This sale will disburse a lot of
money amongst business men that
have heretofore owned an interest in
this mill and who have not had the
pleasure of seeing any cash from it in
b last three years. 1t will relieve
them Of certain debts and distribute
money that has been locked up i'm Pr
oche for the time above mentioned.
This mill is now IN competent hands
and will make good returns for all ore
consigned to their care.
Tho Idaho stage, says the Slrer
State, of the 4th, was stopped day be-

OF Boise City, and robbed. Wells,
Fargo Il Co.'s treasure box was broken
open, and rOobed of about $3.50 in coin
and some other valuables. A. j. Shep-
ard, express agent here, informs us that
the company offer = reward of $500 and
half the value OF what may be recov-
cred Of the stolen property. for the ap.
prehension and conviction of the rob-
bers. The express seems to be the OBJ.
jective point of all the robbers on the
coast, as scarcely a week passes in
which it is not robbed somewhere in
California, Nevada, OF the adjoining
Territories.

A Disgrace to Civilization.

A FRANCISCO. Feb. 8.
For a long time past the press has
been calling public attention to the
disgraceful stale Of affairs existing al
the County Jail and Branch Jail and
City Prison. Each grand jury has
also in turn denounced the condition
Of these institutions. The Committee
of Health of the Police last night made
a report to- the Board OF Supervisors
detailing the facts, which are a dis
grace To civilization. The committee
reported that the number in the County
jails and City prison is about $50,
where there is barely room enough 10
properly accommodate ne-half that
number; particularly is such the case
regarding the County Jaily where in
many instances ten persons are con
fined in one cell of about six by eight
feet, breathing the same loathsome air
of their " generating. The com
mitttee also found that in the women's
ward scarcely sufficient space is
allowed for them to sleep, the num-
Der in eleven cells being sixty. Fully
two-thirds of all the inmates of the
jails are sick, many with ~fevers, be-
ing confined in cells with six or eight
others suffering from different diseases.
The number OF cases Of sickness oc-
casioned by close confinement is in
creasing daily to an alarming extent,
and unless some steps are taken to
prevent it, it must necessarily result
in an epidemic or pestilence. The
committee also found that of the poor
and needy who must necessarily walk
the streets at night unless they can re-
ceive the hospitality of the prison
walls, some thirty or forty are nightly
lodged in the City Prison with scarcely
any accommodations for their com
fort. In view of these facts the COM
mittee urged the passage by the board
OF o resolution requesting the delega-
ton in the Legislature to take immed-

The POIygamy Question.

SALT LAKE, FeD. Z.
Chief Justice White in charging the
grand jury to-day concerning polyga-
my said: 1--WE had better look il
squarely in the face, dlstasteful as it
may be TO some, and govern ourselves
by right, reason, and manly discretion
in dealing with it. Polygainy must he
suppressed in the Territory. Nor
monism may survive il, and, relieved
from it, would stand unsbackled
and as free as every other
crsed or mode of religious worship
shielded and protected by the Constitu-
ton of our common country; but if
Mormoni>m cannot sever itself from
poIygamy, it will be to it the bridal of

late action on the bill now before them
for opening a house of correction
in order that many of the inmates of
the Jail may be removed to that insti-
tuition, which is now complete, and
when occupied will greatly relieve the
jails. They also urged the passage of
a resolution authorizing them to, take
immediate steps to secure plans for an
extension to the prison facilities.
