Orndorff & MCGEE, of the Delta sa-
loon, yesterday morning, says the En-
teprise of the 9th inst, received by ex-
press a box with a sliding lid marked
"snaik." MIR. MCGEE thought some
one was "only fooling," and opened
the box, when up rose the business
ond of a frightfully alert ra~ttlesnake Of
large size. 1t is hardly necessary to
say that Mr.. MCGEE closed the lid of
the box. This is what MCGEE gets-and
is always getting-for having q partner
who is a second Barnum and to whom
Is being sent all z of old and
horrible things from all manner of out
landish places. One Of these days
some n will send Orndorf a speci-
men of the Internal machines now be-
ing used in blowing up vessels and
things; MCGEE will open the package
at the wrong end, and his funeral will
be taking place every day during the
three weeks following, just "a they are
able to get in suitable lots of the re-
mains.
Some of the newspapers, says the
Virginia Chr0aicte, seem to be disposed
to attribute cowardice to James Trevil-
liam as his motive for endeavoring to
avoid q fight with John Sullivan. Pru-
dence would be a better VOID. 1t is
the opinion of judges Of such matters
chat Sullivan is more than a match for
Trevillian. Should Trevillian hold the
same opinion, it would be very impru-
dent in him to oppose his classic nose
to the rude fist Of the sturdy Austria
liam. Only, in that Ease it would be
ore candid in Trevillian to admit the
fact, and not to shuttle out of the con-
test 10y insisting on fighting in three
weeks when he knows Sullivan cannot
get ready in less than five. Sullivan
evidently wants to fight, and Trevillian
does not banker after anything OF the
kind. He has only to say so, and then
nobody will trouble himself any more
about the matter.
A San Francisco exchange say there
are ten tons of sulphur consumed daily
j San Francisco. This sulphur is re-
ceived from the island of Sicily, in the
Mediterranean, japan in Asia, and the
Rabbit Hole mines in Humboldt coun-
ty. The owners of the last mentioned
mines have made arrangements for
putting steam wagons on the road from
the mines to the Humboldt House for
the transportation OF the sulphur which
is refined at the mines. They expect
to be able TO supply the San Francisco
market with q full supply of the article
and have considerable left for trans
portation TO the East. The quality of
the sulphur from these mines is said to
be superior TO the imported article.
The sleigh with the Bullionville mail
and three passengers aboard, ran away
last evening when just beyond the
Alps, throwing the driver, passengers
and mail In the snow, and the fiery an
imals dashed off al full speed, leaving
the discomftted load up to their ears in
the snow. The driver returned to
town, procured q horse and started out
after his team. The sleigh is a COM
plete wreck, and at last accounts was
being used for fire-wood by the miners
the fiat. The passengers sustained
no injury beyond cold feet. and in the
regular stage coach proceeded on their
way rejoicing. So says the Phoebe
Journal Of the Goth inst.
