The pleasant countenance of o. z.
Nash was seen In town yesterday.
Mr.. Nash was on his way to Virginia.
The fancy drinks prepared at the
Sacramento saloon, corner of Union
and d streets, Virginia, cannot be
equaled in the State.
One Of @. Ogg's teams was started
off to the Dunderburg mine, from
this city, yesterday, with a load Of
supplies and provisions.
Three of Nichols big teams have
been put at work hauling slums from
the reservoirs east Of town, to the
Woodwork mill, at Dayton.
Jack Barton is dangerously ill at
his residence in Dayton. James
Donovan drives the sutro and Vir-
ginia stage, pending Barton's recov-
cry.
The Bacon mill, in this city, is
being overhauled and repaired, and
put in thorough working order. 1t
will probably start up in about
week.
The Woodwork mill was cleaned
up yesterday, and was to-day shut
down for the season. 1t will prob
ably not be started up again before
next Spring.
One of Sine Ogg's teams has been
sent to Carson, where it will load up

Jaqua's broom factory, in Dayton.
was nearly destroyed by fire last
Wednesday afternoon. Damage,
about 5000. The hose company
were promptly on the ground, and
prevented further damage.
A colored lady, who came to Silver
on the afternoon bus, last Wednes-
day, had great difficulty in securing
lodgings. She applied at round
dozen houses before she could rent
room. And yet, Silver is Repub-
lican town !
When the pumps in either the
Savage or the Hale & Norcross stop,
from any cause, the water rises in the
incline at the average rate of $50
inches per hour. This would indi.
cate that there remains a considerable
body of water in those two mines.
8. p. Williams, Of the Palace
Saloon, in Virginia City, will start

A. II. Ricketts,, the notary public,
advises the readers of THE TINES
that he can be found at his office,
over the Bank Of California, in Vir-
ginia, between 0 o'clock A. M, and 8
o'clock p. NJ. Mr.. Ricketts, is indus
trious, reliable and prompt, and his
business is steadily on the increase.
1t is strange what a change a slight
rise in the price of stocks makes in
the feelings of the inhabitants of the
Comstock +! A few days ago all felt
gloomy and respondent, and talked
of leaving this "plsyed out" country.
Now, everybody is cheerful, and
talks Of sticking by the old Comstock
forever.
w. H. Elliott and George Sherma an
will leave this city next Monday, to
60 on a protracted camping expcdi-
ton. They will carry all the re-
quired utensils with them, and will
first go toward Mason Valley. From
there they will proceed to Hope
Valley and Lake Tahoe, where they
will remain until they get home sick.
They intend to be gone for several
weeks.
