THERE has been considerable petty thicving lately by Indians; crockery has been sold about town by them, six plates for bit, Se., and bags of flour for seventy five cents. They have also procured much liquor and suspicion attaches to several, who are being watched, of having sold it to them. Pascual, the Chief, called a ameet- mg of the tribe yesterday morning and they have been fiocking in during the past week to attend it. We had no reporter there and cannot give the result, but, knowing Pascual to be sensible and well disposed man, presume his influence was used to put stop to these causes of complaint against them by the white citi- Zcns,

A MAN named F. Kiandlet, recent ar rival here, has made several attempts to commit suicide the past week. He was taken in charge, watched and the next day released, as the paroXysm seemed to have passed and he promised to go to work. It seems that he has lately lost several thousand dollars in stocks at San Francisco, and on arrival here sent S145 to his wife, all that was left to him. He was again taken in charge OF the 4th for another attempt upon his life and brought before United States Court Commissioner Brinley on the 5th.

THE citizens gave a ball at the Court house on Thursday night. The Court room had been appropriately decorated for the day and, well lighted, presented a charming picture when the attendance was swaying to the rhymic music of harp, violin and guitar. There was quite gen. eral concourse, in fact as many couples were dancing as could comfortably be on the floor at one time. The ladies and their toilettes adorned the room, the prevailing color of the latter being white, relieved by garniture of various colors. The re- were furnished by the Forrest House and gave satisfaction, the music was good, and altogether the guests pass ed delightful time.

lowing under date of Soptenber 4th: A hor-
rible tragedy occurred here last night about
8 O'Clock. John Lewis, teamster in the en-
ploy of the Comauche Company, was stabbed
and literally cut to pieces by one Con. Casey,
a miner of this place Casey and Lewis met
in the street and exchanged few words rela-
tive to the employment of the former, when
the lie was given and the two men clinched.
Others rushed to them, but before they could
be separated Lewis fell to the ground saying,
you have cut me, you son OF -. and
'hreathed his last. On examination he was
found to have eleven ghastly wounds in the
side, breast and abdomen, more than six
either of which would in itself prove fatal
The whole affair lasted but minute and pro-
duced the widest excitement Lewis had
many warm friends, and WAS a quiet, peace
able man Casey is comparative stranger

man, and but little reason can be assigned
for the rash act. He was arrested almost

Yesterday the match for $500 side,
and the horses to go with the race, came off.
1t was as interesting and hard fought con-
test as has been seen for many day. The

and got splendid send off. Immediately
after the word, Bennett mare, who halls from
Silver CITY, took the lead, and when they had
GOT hundred yards from the starting point
daylight was quite perceptible between the
two; from there home it was very exciting.
Trays mare, who halls from Douglas county,
commenced running very fast, and it looked
as though she would be sure to win, but the
Silver mare still had little life left, and they
went under the wire head and head. After
considerable consultation by the Judges it

Treadway Recreation Grounds. OF all the

The private conveyances which brought others
were very numerous. We think it a fair es-
innate that there were not less than four
thousand visitors here yesterday In all the
mines the men-al hands-had full liberty
TO come. 1t is probable that good many
more than one half the Comstock miners were
hero yesterday. Besides the miners them
selves were the miners wives, miners SONS
and daughters miners sweethearts and miners
friends. Here and there was politician push
ing his cause, here and there journalist look
ing for items, and here and there a locker on
from far away We have never seen so well
behaved crowd here before-never. We
took a pretty general survey of the grounds
and we saw but one drunken man and no
fights. OF what was done in the prize winning
way we are told that the Sarstield
Guards of Gold Hill won the target shooting
medal. Deacon Bill Gibson, in his regimentals,
himself being Sars6eld, looked every inch
conquerer and smiled with a benignity which
was without alloy. Also we know that the
Carson Guards stands at the head of the sec
ond class msrksmen and that Mr. James
