WE sincerely congratulate the
Democracy and business men gener-
ally of Galveston upon the triumphant
election of Colonel %. G. Stone to the
mayoraity of that city. This step is
an evidence to the cities, towns and
people generally of the interior, that
the business aud social policy of Gal
weston will be 10 the future entirely in
accord with them. Colonel Stone is q
gentleman of more than AVERAGE in
teiligence, is sound, clear-headed
business man, wsrm-hearted, gener.
Gus gentleman, and will leave no stone
unturned to forward the interests of
Galveston, and in doing this he will
be doing good service for the people
of the interior generally. Galveston
must always be the point of de-
parture as we'll as reception of all our
heavier products and imports, and so
it comes that her prosperity will but
mark that of the interior We con-
prstulate the Colonel upon his success.

TIE osCEOLA GOLD FIND.

From Mr.. John Verzan. who, in COM
pany with I. G. Poujade, arrived from
Osceola on Saturday last, we learn the
following concerning the greatest mass
of gold yet discovered in Nevada:
The golden mass, when first found,
was thrown into q pile of waste dirt,
where it lay undisturbed for several
weeks. Finally it was carried by pack
animal, along with the thie!'s "camp
tixinRs," into Ward, where 1t was melted
into small bars, Tbs piece, before melt
ing. weighed Just "a lbs. IL OF. avoirdu-
pois, and as it contained but very little
quartz, its actual coin value must have
been at least 50, 900. The finder of this
truely wonderful specimen was a man
who had been nnder many obligations
to Mr.. Verzan, his employer, and the
principal owner in the mine. When
Verzan met the thief in Ward, he
greeted his late employee cordially, as
an OLD friend, aud again offered him as
sistauce, surprising him to be in need.
This was too much. The thief, pale
and haggard, met Mr.. Verzan the next
morning, He said that he had passed
restless days and s!eepless lights long
enough; that be was. willing to give
up all that remained of the stolen prop
erty for simple forgiveness, for one
nights rest, for one meal unalloyed by
the thought that it was purchased with
stolen goods. Then he told the story of
the nugget, as given above, meanwhile
dropping into the hands OF the aston
ished owner bar after bar of heavy, solid,
shining gold. The owners of the claim
realized 50. $50. One bar, valued at
about $3.50, was given to the repsntant
thief, who Immediately thereafter disap-
peared. or the remaining $1,000 part
was sold to Wells. Fargo & Co. q agent
at Ward, having first been alleged with
copper, to avoid suspicion. AS nothing
definite can now be proven, the thiefs
accompicrs in the melting are still at
large.
