on Tuesday next, April II, there is to be
q grand rodeo of cattle at the lower sink
Ct Carson. There is a range there hay
ing O radius of IS or 20 miles, and the
stock OF many owners range there in
common. There are sometimes rodeos
in the Fall, X owners want TO select of
their stock for market. but the grand
meeting is in the Spring time. Then
all the animals are driven III, the
lows being accompanied by their calves;
aud when the calves seek the maternal
fount. they are lassoed, branded and
deprived Of any unnecessary ornaments
and turned loose. Tie range is so very
extensive that it takes about ten days to
complete the work Tbs Sink is in
Churchill County, but the brands may
be registered, under the law. in any
county in the State. Mr.. Griffith will
attend this rodeo-he and Mr.. Neyers
being the owners of a considerable herd
Of cattle at TIE Sink.

the following rather startling state

known in Virginia and Gold Hill.
who recently went to England with
McCleary, the billiardist, got into a
scrape in that blarsted country, the
nature of which the Chronicle reporter
has been unable to learn, and has
ieen sentenced to imprisonment for
life. This is somewhat rough on
IS Doc" as pardons are scarce in Eng
land and he will have to serve out his
term.
NOTICE TO TEANsTERs.-Ths attention
Of teamsters is called to an advertisement
in another column. Transportation is
wanted for Hides and Sheep pelts from

Decoration Day. An enthusiastic
solder man asked Us yesterday If We
were not going 10 have something tC
say soon abou: Decoration Day. These
following remarks are our reply; Now
that we have regularly organized mill
tary company in this city, it seems to US
that it will be we'll 20 make something
more than ordinary preparations for that
event. To this end We suggest that q
meeting of soldiers and sailors Of tha
| Union be held at an early day and steps
taken TO make the pageant an imposing
| and brilliant one. Some definite ar.
| rangements should he made looking to
| a very abundant display Of the very
choicest flowers in their freshest cen
dltlOn. Also it seems to rs that it would
be good plan to have the literary exer-
cises at night. Thus. the decoration
ceremonies might lie done early in the
mornlrg-as early as = or O'Clock
and then tho business of the day not
beng interrupted, the exercises of the
evening would be very excellent wind
up to the occasion; and might We not
suggest good, hearty, sollieTlike sup.
per at the end of tho whole. Hold a
meeting and talk the matter over.
OPuTE In the Gold Fill New, min
ing summary for the wecl, ending Anil
&, We have the following account of the
Ophir mine: DAILY yield of 10 tons
OF ore, keeping the mills all running up
to their full crushing capacities. The
ore breasts on the ! 800 and POO foot
levels show no changes worth noticing |
during the week. The east drift on the !
LOCO foo. level has penetrated to the ore |
vein, and which is showing finely at that |
point. Tho up-raise above the | 200 foot /
level to connect with the east drift on
the HOO foot level is making steady |
progress in very favorable ground. The
east dntt on the |, 100 foot level is still
IN quartz and low grade ore. The east
shalt has been cleaned out and repaired
70 the bottom on the LOO foot level.
The new incline machinery vas started
up for trial few days ago. everything
working with the utmost perfection.
The new Office is nearly completed.
With the present favorable openin. the
yield Of bullion for this month will, with
ont doubt, DE considerably increased.

FLooD on CONNECTICUT R1vER-TRAyEI
ON PAssUXrsIc RAILROAD SropPED.-The
running Of trains on the Passumpsic Rail
road was suspended, Thursday, on account
of the rashouts. The water there is higher
than at any time siuce 1869, and farmer,
along the Connecticut river are being
heavily damaged. At last accounts the
paper mill dam at Wells River was expected
to go out every minute. which will food the
village if it does. The people are clearing
heir houses a. fast as possible. There
were no through trains on the Montpelier
and Wells Railroad during the day.
At NeIndco's Falls, the river is said to
be higher than it has been in twenty
years. The boons of r. Z. Peabody &
Co. gave way Wednesday, letting over
several million of logs. Fears are enter
tanned that much damage may be done
below that place to bridges and dams.
