Commemorative Attorney.
EDITORS OF HERALD:

1t being gener.
ally unders TODD that Mr., Walton de-
clines the office of attorney for the
commonwealth after the. expiration o.
his present term, it is proper that the
people should begin to look out for
some one to fill that responsible posi-
ton. AS it is an office ofsmall pay com.
pared with the labor it is not likely
there will be many aspirants. But it is
an office in which the people of the
county are generally interested. Of all
things the county wants live prose-
cutor, a jealous watcher of her affairs.
Whenever the matter is spoken of in
this community the suggestion is spon-
taneous and almost unanimous that
H. Fl. Riddleberger is the man for the
place. 1t is understood that Mr..
Riddleberger has so far declined the
use of his name in this connection, but
it is the intention of many citizens of
this community to urge him to an ac-
ceptance and labor, if necessary, for his
election, first, because he will make an
efficient officer, and second, because he
deserves well for his zeal and perseyer-
ance for his own and the general veal.

Nevada.
WHITE Rock, June IS. 1877.
Times up this way ars pretty dull,
partly owing to the fact that mining
com auies do not pay regularly.
Since the first of June the Leopard
Company have reduced their working
force considerably, and are carrying on
the works as economically as possible.
Wood delivered at the mill commands
the following prices: pine. $13; fir, Sll
and cedar and other wood so per cord.
As the wood in this vicinity is princi-
pally fir it makes it hard on those en-
gagged in the wood business. Last year
fir soldreadily at $l2 per cord.
From all reports we are going to
have a new camp in a very short time,
which BIDS fair to benefit the people
more than the Leopard or Hussey. 1t

owned by Duncan b Co. which expe-
rienced miners say is the best pros

have about 800 tons of ore on the
dump, and are making arrangements to
have il worked at the Vance mill at
Mountain City. 1t is believed that the
property will change hands inside of
twenty days, and that a mill will be
built near the mine. A lot of ore from
this mine worked at Mountain City
yielded $40 per ton.

THE GREAT SHOW.
Arrival OF Montgomery Queens
Circus.

A special train consisting of twenty
two cars, loaded with the performers,
attaches. horses and wild animals of
Montgomery Queens great circus and
menagerie, arrived from Reno this
morning. 1t is unquestionably the

ton of living curiosities ever seen in
Nevada. aud its arrival has caeated a
greater sensation than the Indian war.
Mr. Queen is the acknowledged prince
of showmen, and spares neither trouble
nor expense to maintain his title undis-
puted. He has the most daring and
graceful riders and acrobats, the most
powerful athletes and humorous clowns in
the world. He procures, regardless of
expense, from all quarters of the globe,
the most wonderful and interesting ami
mails. and his collection of beasts COM
prises the only two-horned rhinoceros
and African horned horse on the Amer
lean continent, to see which is alone
worth the price of admission. Two ex-
hibitions will be given here to-day.
The doors will be open at L and at 7
O'Clock P. M, and the performance be-
gins one hour later, and of course ev-
erybody will attend.

CHICAGO, Aug. 10-ss For all the crime that

was speaking with one of the officers OF the
Forty-seyenth Street Congregational Society
few days ago upon the subject Of their church
debt, and comparing it with that OF ours, in pro-
portion to the value Of the property covered BY
the mortgages, and he took occasion to say that
there was a great mistake in putting their
church property down as mortgaged for S6,ooo,

In the course Of our conversation the fact was
brought to light that the Oakland Congrega-

exposed the hand OF the one who took his little
hatchet and made such havoc with church prop
erty. Since then I have made some inquiries
about this branch OF Zion and her financial
standing and find it no better thau her other
waywaru sisters In this direction. L mistake
not, she has mortgage Of some $4,000 on her
real estate, besides many unsecured liabilities,
amounting in the aggregate to some S5,O00
more, among which arc back interest (about
$4,000, repairs, former pastors salaries, organ,
fuel, etc. Now, Mr.. Editor, I do not bring
these facts up for any other purpose than that
all Of the churches may be compelled to bear
their part In this raid, and that the unseen hand
NAV be made manifest, for think It was pur-
poscly hid from the gaze Of the world.
