NEW ORLEANS MINSTRELS.

The New Orleans Minstrel troupe, under
the management of Mr.. H. J. Sargent, will
make its appearance on the boards of the Car
son Theater, on Saturday next. This troupe
is very highly spoken of by the press. We
copy an extract from the Grass Valley Union,
under date of Sept. Goth, respecting the ex-
cellence of the New Orleans Minstrels "This
troupe gave the second and last performance
to delighted audiences at Hamilton Hall last
night. The troupe came unheralded, and
we hardly knew what to expect of them, and
were gratifed to find their entertainments in
every way good-in music, song and acting.
Their programme is entirely new; their jokes
and eccentricities have the merit of originality
and freshness, etc X"

AN UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT. " yesterday
morning as the lightning train was coming in,
a couple of horses attached to a wagon became
frightened and made an energetic break down
street This horsetile demonstration was a
fiasco whether it is to be ascribed to a linn
tied grain diet or not we are unable to say.
The attempt at creating an excitement was
very feeble, as the animals did not run half
block before they changed their minds and
stopped. Too bad, What highly sensa-
tional item they might have made, were it
not for the high price of barley and oats.
Dr. J. w. Waters and his daughter, Miss
Della, left Carson last night to take up their
residence in San Francisco. A large assem-
blage of old friends were at the railway depot
to bid them God speed The Doctor has been
an old resident of this city, where he is highly
esteemed for his many excellent qualities
Hope his new home may prove as pleasant to
him as the one he left.
