Sn idea Death Of N. Berwin. in View
- York city.
Mr.. A. Derwin, the well-known merchant,
yesterday TT ceivcd intelligence OF the sud-
den death Of his brother, Morritz Berwin,
in New York on Friday last. The sad
news was first transmitted by telegraph to
p. Berwin, San Francisco, and thence
here by letter. The remains Of deceased
will he brought TO this coast for intcrment,
arriving in San Francisco on Monday next.
Mr.. A. Berwin leaves for San Francisco to-
morrow morning to De present when the
last sad rites are paid to his deceased
brother. Though without particulars as
yet. Mr.. Berwin thinks that death must
have resulted from ~appoplexy, his brother
being p~rcdisposed to that disease. 1t is
quite likely thai by this misfortune we will
lose Mr.. A. Berwin permanently from our
midst. Morritz Berwin was the New York
buyer for the San Francisco house OF p.
Berwin 4 BROTHERS. 1t is among the prob
abilities that our fellow-townsman will be
compelled to go East to take his place.
This, however, will not be definitely de-
termined until he shall have visited San
Francisco. We shall regret, II the circum-
stances should be such US to render it nee
essary for MIR. Berwin tn wind up his bust
ness here and take permanent leave Of us.
The late Morritz Berwin spent a day in
Eureka about n year ago, aud during his
brief stay made many friends by his genial
disposition and affable mannei. He was
about 40 years Of age at tao time Of his
death. His brother has the sympathy
OF the entire community in his sad afiiic-
ton.

Says the Ward Reflex: Late arrivals
from Treasure City report that since all
work has boon stopped that place is now
well-nigh deserted, and that the future
prospects Of the Hill are gloomy to the
last degree. IT'S sad to think that the
center. OF the "boss excitement Of the
last decade has at last been given up to
bats and owls, and the place that was once
the scene Of busy life. aud where men were
thicker on Main street than ~blackbirds on

A Eureka correspondent Of the Tusca-

we're managed here on election day. The

said correspondent seems to be well
posted. He should be sought out and
brought before the Grand Jury TO relate
what he knows under oath. Following is
his story:
About the election I am SO Disguised
that l have but little to say. The scenes
here on election day were most UNANIMOUSLY
disgraceful. The purchase Of votes was
perpetrated in the most open, barefaced
and shameless manner. There was no
attempt at concealmcnt. Bonanza coin

three depots, or slaughter houses" to

ercise the elective franchise we're taken by

with five dollars in one hand and a ticketin

A recent article in ~ScriLner's Monthly
was strongly in favor Of narrow-gauge
roads. In the December number Mr.. Lo-
renzo M. johnson takes up the cudg;l in
favor of the broad, or standard gauge. He
says
In regard to the relative claims Of the
two classes Of roads, there is a tendency to
cxaggerate the cost of standard gauge
roads. their equipment and operation: and.
at the same time, to depreciate the cost of
construction, equipment and operation Of
narrow-gange roads.
For instance. it has been said. in relation
to the equipment Of a standard-gauge road,
that the weight Of n car il 90, 900 pounds.
its capacity 10000 and its cost S735 j:
whereas. the fact is that the capacity Of
such a car is at least $4,000 pounds. while
its cost need not be more than $500.
At the same time, the weight of a plat
form car Of the n~arrow-gange road is given
at $3.50 pounds, with a capacity Of 10, 900.
These cars weigh nearer 1900 pounds, and
they should be rated at 10000 pounds rs u
load.

Hill, and left to report to these nen. The
price to be paid for the Mary Ann is $780,

Pacific is also to be included in the pur-
chase, but the price to be paid we did not
learn. Should this sale be perfected and
these mines be started up, u camp will

tour through the mining camps Of this
county, ! send you o Few notes in regard to
the mining outlook. which may interest
your readers:
Il just now assuming a very interesting as
pect to the mining capitalists Of San Fran
cisco. The new 2o-stamp mill Of the Mar
tin White Company was started up on the
18th. 1t Is o nice piece Of work. and il
quito up to the expectations of beth its
builders and owners. Connected with the
mill are three improved Howle & White
furnaces for roasting the pulp rs it comes
from the batteries, which is conveyed from
the latter in slowly revolving tubes. Those
connected with its workings feel %sanguine
that the mill will prove a success.
The ~Paymaster mine looks well. They
are now extracting ore from q chamber 20
feet wide. and from $50 to 175 feet long.
The ore is gray carbonate, free from ga
lena, and assays from $3.50 to SITS per ton,
and is expected to mill 90 per cent. of the
assay value. About rs men are employed
at the mine and mill, which number is al
together inadequate to support so large a
population as is conferred at Ward.
ROBINSON.
The Sclby Mining Company's furnace,
two miles from Robinson, was started up
last Thursday. and is running nicely.
Four tons of copper bullion were produced
in the first 81 hours. The present run will
necessarily be a short one; but If success
full, the company intend to do a good deal
Of work ON their mines this winter. and be
in readiness for smelling on a larger scale
when spring opens.
CHERRY CREEK.
The Star is the only company doing any
work in the district. They are rupning
only ten stamps, and producing about
Sc. 500 a week. The ore on the 3C0-foot
level is nearly worked out, and the mill
will soon have to stop. Preparations are
being made ia resume sinking, and the
pumps aud other machinery are in readi-
ness to M that work. Cherry
Greek is very dull. and the prospect for
better times there is not encouraging.
oscEoLA.
just now everything is shut down in
that collaborating district, and most OF
those who have claims there have gone
elsewhere to spend the winter. Rich speci-
mems of quartz are to be seen everywhere
you meet the Osceola miner, bnt what is
the use, when capital cannot. be had to
bring in water. open the lodges, and con-
struct milling facilities. However, I learn
hat a company Of San Francisco capital
lists is being formed to bring in water and
construct y 20-stamp mill, but this cannot
be done before next summer.
WHITE PINE.
The only company doing any work in
this district is the Jennie A. They have a
good mine, and by spring will have 800
or 1000 tons Of ore ready to reduce, when
smelling furnaces will doubtless be erected.
Captain Drake, Of the Eberhardt and
Aurora, is o on his way home from
London. and l learn from good authority
hat his company has raised him S55, 600,
and promised to increase the mount to
$l00. 900, with which to carry on operations
on the tunnel and prospect the old Eber-
hardt ground, connecting the tunnel with
