THE OPERA LAST NIGHT

The chairs were falrly nIed last night Dy
very attentive and eager audience. Flotow'
comic opera of "Martha" was presented
This is as light and pleasing an opera as on
finds in the entire repertory of thelyric stage
and its presentation last evening was charac
terized by much easy assumption of the part
and some very excellent solos, Duets, quar-
tets and choruses. Mrs Caroline Richings
Barnard assumed the title character with al
her grace and full acquaintance with the
music, the situations and the business of the
piece Nothing could be more satisfactory.
She was in fine voice and her substantially
F'The Last Rose of Summer" was exquisitely
rendered. Mr.. Harry Gates has the
making of a very rich and mellow tenor-a
voice of surprising fexibility and volume
Miss Hattie Moore is an admirable ''Nancy, -
full of vivacity, and very pleasant vocalist.
Mr. kinross has a fine bass voice, which he
employed to good purpose in his rendition of
Plunkett. The audience attested their APP
probation of the performance with many
hearty rounds of applause. We are glad to
announce for tonight the splendid opera of
II Trovatore--in some respects the most de-
sure of your reserved seats at an early hour.
SToCKs. brokers Offices were filed
with smiling faces yesterday, which was at
| tributable to the enhancement in market
| value of most every stock along the line of
| the Comstock from the EXTREMIST point north
to the extreme south. How long this bubble
will remain inflated, or what justifes this
sudden and unlocked for appreciation in
prices, We are unable to say; but this we will
say, that unless there are some good develop
ments to back this rise, a collapse will follow
before the close Of the current week. Prices
cannot be maintained without intrinsic merit
in mine a stock may wiggle up a few dol
lars, but unless the principal manipulation can
make good showing to the outside gudgeons
the outsiders will throw the bulk of their
stock upon the market and depress it. Times
are not as they were. Formerly all that had
to be done to set the stock operators wild,
was to report that q rich strike and large body
of ore was found IN such and such a mine
Nothing more than report or rumOr was
required TO send the stock of such mine I'D to
fabulous prices; but now the people want ore
in sight, and good ore at that, or they will
not bite. The reports from Justice, Overman
and several mines at the north end are of an |
exceedingly encouraging nature. If these |
reports can be corrOborated by good and sub |
s}antial uncoverings of rich ore, then we may |
look for booming market and return Of |
the flush times Of the past
The grand Indian powwow held in the
M Of oi+1 h. /
week, has come to an end The Piutes and
Washoes, who have many years been on terms
of enmity with each other, took advantage OF
that occasion to re-establish good feeling and
friendship between the tribes. The Piutes
packed up their traps on Monday evening
and sailed forth to their several points of
habitation. Meeting Washoe Indian yes
terday, we asked of him what he thought OF
Plutes now; he replied, to use his own yer
nacular, "Piute poorly good Injun good
friends now; but he too much like Washoe
Mahala, sure to make trouble sometime"
The green-eyed monster has even penetrated
the breasts of these careless and untaught
children of Nature.
Passengers from Bodie district report
steady influx of miners and capitalists to that
section, who are locating and purchasing min
erai lands for many miles around the spot
where the celebrated Standard gold mine is
oca ted. Every one who visits Bodie and
the country surrounding is impressed with
The idea of its future greatness and product

The back purieus were enlivened little
