No BULLION FROM LEEDS. We are I'm.
able to publish the shipment Of bullion
from Leeds owing to Mr.. Barstow,

ing been struck with an idea lit ought
to have been with club), to the effect
that after the bullion had been shipped
from Leeds, arrived here, and from here
shipped to Eureka, that the publication
Of the said shipments would enable high
waymen at Silver Beef to snatch the
aforesaid bullion that bad previous to

brilliant idea ought to entitle Barstow
to promotion. II is 80 original that none

on it.
