SIERRA NEVADA.

Rich Strike and Advance of Stock.
San Francisco, Oct. 15.-The south
drift twenty-three hundred foot level
of the Sierra Nevada mine was opened
for inspection to-day, and visited by
nearly one hundred experts, operators,
brokers and journalists. A Virginia
dispatch thus describes the situation:
The drift starts in a southerlY direc-
ton, subsequently, turning westward,
and strikes one body of ore at an angle
of about forty degrees; the west side of
the drift shows ore at point twenty
feet from the face; the sides and face
Of the drift show body of very rich
ore, samples of which assayed 1923
ounces to the ton, of which S137 was
gold. Good judges estimated that the
5ore would mill two to three hundred
dollars. Much higher assays have been
made, but the above is considered the
average character Of the deposit. 1t is
not as firm as could be wished, the ore
being soft and mushy; at the south
west corner the face ore is harder than
elsewhere, and of lower grade. The
ore.is chloride, and rich enough for all
purposes if it holds ont. The bulls are
delighted with the prospect, and the
bears admit that the face of the drift
looks well, but claim that it was nicely
fixed up for inspection last night, since
which time not pick has been struck
in it, and express suspicion that the
drill holes, run in in advance, showed
that it would not be advisable to con-
tinue the drift until the visitors had
seen it., and theinsiders had an oppor-
tunity to sell out on their report, be-
fore an unfavorable development was
made. The majority Of the VISITORS,
however, dissented from this view, and
expressed belief that that the devel-
opment warrants the advance of stock
to one hundred dollars per share.

freight train at Glenville, Ohio. Three
clerks in the postal car and the en-
gineer of No. were slightly injured.
One lady passenger was also slightly
injured, the injuries were not serious
enough to prevent her from proceeding
to her destination. A dense fog pre-
vailed at the time of the accident,

New York, Oct. 15.-The Herald
having said that Gen. -Sherman's daugh-
ter was liberal Catholic, to-day pub
fishes the following dated Washington,
Oct. 12: Please correct the statement,
which, although seemingly unimport-
ant, is really slander: To be "lib-
eral Catholic" is to be an object of pity
or contempt, and my children are all,
up to this day, as true and loyal in their
faith as they are pure and exemplary in
their lives. ~ sll 3 aJ-9A5 q

bureau to-day:
Los PINos, COL, Oct. IL.
To the Commissioner Of Indian Affairs,
Washington:
All quiet. No danger of any trouble
from the Indians, either near or re-
mote, unless precipitated by the evil
counsels and conduct of the whites, who
seem determined to make trouble. The
newspapers, and the very atmosphere of
Colorado. are full Of lying rumors.
The secret Of all this outcry and these
false rumors can be found in the popu-
lar text, "The Utes must 60" The
White River women, children, money
and papers are safe with Mrs. Meeker.
They will all be sent here as soon as
practicable. Some of the employees are
believed to be alive. The soldiers have

sherman's Boom.

Washington, Oct. 15.-The decisive
completeness of the republican triumph
in Ohio has oecasioned much surprise
in Washington among republicans as
we'll as democrats, and is to-day the
subject Of widespread comment by saga
cious political observers of both parties,
who all agree that the victory is not
only very signal but one which has
several important bearings in national
politics. In the first place it is consid
cred to be the political death of Senator
Thurman, as it assures the election of
some republican to displace him in the
senate and blast his presidential hopes
for manifest reasons. It is next agreed
that in just the proportion which yes
terday's verdict is disastrous to Senator
Thurman as candidate, for president,
it's advantageous to q Secretary Sher-
man, It starts anew his "boom,,,
whereas had Ohio gone democratic yes
terday helwould have been as hopelessly
out Of the race as Senator Thurman
now is. There seems also to be IAN al
most unanimous expression that yester-
days election has killedthe rag baby'
beyond the hope of resurrection, and
that the democrats win probably con-
clude it is time to let the currency issue

Shediae, N. B.: A fire broke out in
an unused out-building back Of the old
Adams house, last night, and, carried
by strong gale, destroyed all the build
ings on both sides of Main street, from
that point up to the railway crossing;
thirty-six buildings being burned. This
comprises the entire business portion of
Shediae, only one store being left. The
loss will probably reach one hundred
thousand dollars; partially insured.

Press Opinions on the Ohio Election.

Press Opintons on the Ohio Eiection.
New York, Oct. 15.-The Herald
says Of the republican triumph in Ohio,
that besides disposing of several promi-
nent Ohio statesmen, it will inspire
courage and hope in the republican
party Throughout the union. Besides
it improves Tilden's chances of nomina-
tion, but not of election. 1t also
strengthens Sherman in the republican
convention.
Times: 1t should be remembered that
it may have the effect of frightening
back into the ranks numerous demo-
cratic boilers who may be disposed to
forget their personal grievances in the
hour of party peril. 1t is certain that
the defeat in Ohio will only nerve to
more desperate measures the managers
of the Tilden campaign in New York.
They can point to the vote Of Ohio as
the result Of the rejection of their can
didate, Bishop, and can claim that had
their, advice been taken, the resnlt
would have been different. he
Special kilograms from Ohio show
that the republicans, carried by close
vote the counties Of Madison, Delaware,
Hardin, Knox, and Muskingum.
These with Hamilton county place be
yond question the legislative surely re-
publican on joint ballot and secures the
retirement Of Thurman to private life.
More than this, the republican control
of both houses being insured, the de
struction oftne Democratic gerrymand,

SPANISH POLITICS.
A Very In,eres.ing Resume.

Madrid, Oct. 15.-Officially an
nounced intelligence concerning the
Spanish liberal coalition sent from here
is incorrect. Seniors Mortov, Moreno,
Montero, Rios, Marquis of Sandoval
and the democrats and radicals have
arranged with Seniors Gorilla and Sal
meron to give up the old intransigent
attitude and adopt a broad programme,
as near as possible to the constitution
of 1859. with universal suffrage; to con-
ciliate the moderate republicans and
republicans of the Pi y Margall party,
who command majority in the towns
and southern provinces, and to start an
agitation in favor of political reforms.
Senior CASTELAR, and his friends hold
aloof because they are disappointed at
the alliance with the federals, and the
federals themselves have not yet ad-
hered to the coalition as they prefer the
policy of abstention and secret propa-
ganda.
The principal conservative news
papers, the Epoca and Politica, and also
the leading statesmen, like Conavas
Del CASTILLO. j. d'Elduagen, governor
of the Bank of Spain, and Romero Y.
Robledo, with a majority in both houses
of the cortes, support the views of the
Cuban planters on the slavery question.
As regards the tariff reforms advo-
Gated by Gen. Martinez Campos, the
refiners and sugar growers of Malayo
and Andalusia have been already nearly
defeated before the Cuban commission
proposed to repeal the heavy duty now
levied to protect their interests, there
is, SO far, little probability of fair
compromise between the home and
colonial interests, but most of the creole
liberal members never appeared in the
commission. On every question of tar
iff, emancipation and taxation, two
distinct series of proposals will be laid
before the cortes.
