Tenn Pahute.

From the gentlemen who returned
recently from Tenn Pahute District, we
learn that its prospects are very bright,
and that its mineral will
very soon be proved. The Chicago
company, who recently became inter-
ested in some of the leading mines, are
inakingextensive preparations to pros.
pect and develop their property, and
have quite a force of men at work with
that object in view. Mr.. Robbins, who
is entirely disiuterested, made an en-
tensive examination of the leading
lodges, and was very fayorably inn
pressed. 1t is probable that he will
lend his aid to enlist capital in the
mines shown him, though we do not
have his authority for the statement.
A goodly portion of the mines are
owned and controlled by citizens OF
Eureka, and they are very s%anguine in
regard to the Astounding wealth now
lying dormant in that region.

The Clerk, who is popularity sup
posed TO preside over The destinies of
the weather in this portion of the uni
verse, seems TO be a one-idea sort of
a chap, or else, when he parcels out
any particular kind, he relaxes from
his duties and gives us a full dose,
running summer away along into jan
uary and then turning on a mixture,
as il to make up for his unreasonable
negligence. His last efforts have been
OF the disagreeable order, and a more
detestable reign of the elements
was never experienced. Light snow

crate tenn perature to turn it into slush,
a furious gale for three or four hours,
followed by leaden skies and a murky
atmosphere, so depressing in its effects
as to give every human being the
blues, an occasional glimpse of old
Sol and a patch of blue sky, a sort of
reminder OF the blessings that we are
deprived of, all &C toward making the
present season a most miserable one.

Iniureu Dy n Fall.

A miner by the name of Jackson,
while climbing the mountain side of
old Prospect, Wednesday last, in the
vicinity of the Metamoras, by some
means stumbled, and before he could
recover his foothold, rolled down the
precipitous hillside for a distance OF
200 feet. Although bruised and sore,
he managed to make his way back to
his cabin on Ruby Hill, and has been
contied to his bed eve since. No bones
were broken by the fall, but the shak-
ing up and bruises he received during
his rapid descent will i~ncapacitate I'm
from his labors fer some time.

Sweating

The Richmond Company is building
a couple of sweating furnaces, in the
cupel department of the refinery, for
the purpose Of purifying the dross
from the calcining pans, before it is
put through the smelling furnace. 1t
will remove the oxydized surface, and
render it more tractable to the effect of
the blast. We believe that the new
furnaces are constructed on the same
principle as the reverbratory, in the
roasting process. 1t is a busy scene IN
the neighborhood of the reduction
works, and the operations now being
carried on at the refinery and furnaces
are of a greater magnitude than ever
before in the history of the company.

A PRACTICAL JOKE.

Practical joking is all well in its way,
but there is such a thing as decorating
tile victims feeling beyond endurance.
\ case in point is that of a young fel.
low well known in social circles, who
enjoys, or, rather, arrogates to himself
tho reputation Of a "lady-kiile:," and
who is by no means silent on the sub
ject OF his imaginary conquests among
his female acquaintance. For some
time past he has been the recipient of
dainty perfumed notes, ~Osteusibly
written by a young lady who protested
to have succumbed TO his charms.
They were couched in the most glow
ing language, and III hero responded
in the same amorous strain. He in
sisted on an Interview, and she, after
considerable coyness, and "a that
her parents would oppose it, finally
granted his urgent request, and noti-
tied him that she would meet him on
Buel street Thursday night in the rear
OF Moore Bros stable; time, 7 O'Clock
in the evening. He was there. arraved
in his best. and his heart beat audiblv
as he heard the rustic of the skirt, and
saw approaching him a female form.
She came rapidly, and throwing her
arms around his neck, exclaimed,
in untnistakable Shoshone accents,
ME heap like you; you catch my
letter, hey ?" n chorus of wild
laughter went up from a crowd OF
young fellows, who were hidden in
the neighboring LOT, and as he fled
down the street, their m%ocking cries
sounded in his ears, and added speed
to his flight. The boys, knowing his
weakness. had baited the trap with
those notes, and then hired the squaw
to assist at the denouement. We
would not be surprised if, in his blind
rage, he slaughtered every one of
them; and a due regard for our own
safety compells us to suppress all
names and leave the identity Of the
chief actor a matter OF conjecture.

He Loved Her.

A fond mother on Spring street was
catechising her three-year old son yes
terday as to the affection that he bore
toward his parents, and put the old
question as to which he loved best.
The little fellow promptly answered
"Father," Don't you love mama?'
she queried. He pondered over the
subject for a moment, and finally an
swered, "Yes, but you do whale the
devil out of a fellow sometimes" The
interrogatories were not pursued any
further.

Anderson testified that there were no
protests on the returns made by him
from East Fellciana parish. He went
to New Orleans where he met Marshal
Pitkin, who asked him IL there were
any protests. He replied no. Pitkins
asked why. Witness replied because
there was more intimidation done by
the republicans than the democrats.
| Later Pitkins met witness and wished
he would make come protests "a the
presidential election hinged on Lonis'
lana. He brought q protest which
witness refused to sign. Other protests
already prepared were brought to wit
ness, one Of which he signed, to the
effect that he did not protest in the
parish because he was afraid of his life.
Another protest was signed by i. A.
jerks, a deputy United States marshal.
The copy of the letter alleged to have
been written by Webber and Ander-
son to Secretary Sherman says: 1--WE
have carefully considered the argu'
ments used by you, which, II we com-
ply with, we will have to leave the
state. viii you tell us in writing who
we shall look to for the fulflllment OF
YOUR promise % Anderson identified
the following as letter he had WRIT
ten to Webber: "Psckard is raising
hell over your refusal to protest. Morey
has been following me ever since my
return. Am In doubt whether he Ia

Morrison committee, when he was In
New Orleans, and that Governor Kel-
