Mr.. Smith. the well.known politician
Of Virginia City, is dead. On the 12th
instant he boasted that he could swallow
q schooner Of water at single drink.
His brother.in.law. Mr.. Brown, ques.
toned that Smith could do as he claimed
and agreed to pay for the liquor. The
barkeepsr filled the glass. and finding
that il contained pint and half. ad-
yised Smith not to drink the whole guam
tity, a. II would kill him. Smith replied
that 1t was only drink for a child, and
swallowed the liquid at one draught. A
few minutes after committing the dare
devil feat, hs fell unconscious to the
floor. He died the Same night.
The editor Of the Reno Gazette, in an
article on the deadly diet Of the board
ing.house, complains Of the mixture
called coffee and milk" that Is forced
upon him. He may think himself lucky
that his landlord forces anything on him
worse than his last months bill. Many
Q smarter Nevada editor has had the
dining.room door forced on him. and
hssn't complained about IL in his paper,

The Post recounts the ascent OF one
OF its young men to the top Of ono OF the
Sutter. street synagogue spires yesterday,
and heads the item "a Reporter Feat. "
Those who saw the ascent say the 70.
porter's feet were the most noticeable
part Of the performance, and the resi-
dents in that portion Of the city all came
to their doors with smoked glasses,
thinking thsrs was an eclipse.

Of Eureka, Reno. Carson and Virginia.
who have expended upon him much

There is Q rumor now that the Count
Tslisrner, who married Miss Ada Hun
qsrford, sister OF Mrs. Mackay. is not
quite a. rich as was supposed. 1t is
known that he Is connected with some
railway operations, but the same might
bs said with truth Of . brakeman on the
Alameda narrow.guage.
Colonel Mosby is accused by a lady,
Who writes from Hongkong to friend
in Norristown, OF sitting with his feet on
the table when American gentlemen call
to pay their respects. The lady ought
not to bs 20 indignant. Perhaps the
mantsl was too high for the Colonel.
Before the sub.drain in the Sutro tun.
mel was begun, We heard Of starving
miners pleading piteously for work and
toiling over the hills to Sutro by the
hundreds to get 1t. They got 1t, and
now We hear Of one faro bank CLEANING

Two or three hurdy houses have

Female Free JIascns.

Says the Charlotte (N. O. O5serror: Recently this paper, after referring to the fact that the Hon. Mrs. Aldworth is supposed to be the only female Free Mason in the world, dlvulged the fact that Mrs. B. B. Babington, who was at one time resident of this State, was also member of the ancient and honorable order. The 06serUor's arti. cle has brought out the Shelby Auro- ra to the front, and in its issue of yes terday, the editor, Mir J. B. Babington, writes as follows: Inasmuch as the lady referred to in the above article is our mother, we deem 1t our duty to republish it and make the necessary corrections. The story is correct with the execution of places and ages. The lady's father was a native of New York, and moved to Greenup county, Kentucky, where our mother was born and raised. The place where she was made a Mason was in an unfinished church room. She secreted herself under the pulpit, going in at an en- trance from the side. and was eventu- ally discovered while leaving her hid ing-place after the lodge had adjourn ed. She was about 15 years old when she was made Mason, and our fath- CT did not join the order for nearly ly twenty years after they were mar ried. We do not belong to the order, but we have it from men who do that she is brighter in Masonry than a large number of men who have pass ed to the third degree. Our mother is still living, and is now in Boyd county, Kentucky, few miles from where she was first initiated into the mysteries of that ancient order of Masons."

Death of Caleb Cushing.

Caleb Gushing died last Thursday, the 2d inst, at the age of 79. He was one of the most notable men of the republic. In his death the govern ment loses one of its staunchest pill lars. He was a graduate of Harvard and at the early age of 19 became a tutor in that institution. His politi- cal career began at 9, when he was elected to the Massachusetts legisla- ture, serving several terms in the as- sembly and senate. Mir. Cushing's first important service to the United States government was in 1914, when he visited China as American con- missioner, and negotiated the first treaty made between that empire and this country. In 1S47 he was con- spicuOus advocate of Il war with Mex ico, and equipped regiment at his own expense. Being appointed it's colonel, he served under Gen. Taylor, and was subsequently promoted to the rank of brigadier-general. While in Mexico he was defeated as demo- cratic candidate for governor of Mass achusetts. In 1852 he became a jus ticc of the supreme court of Massa- chusctts, and in the following year he was appointed United States attorney general, which position he held for four years. In April, 1860, he was president of the democratic national convention at Charleston, but during the civil war gave the union party his earnest support. In 1866 he was ap- pointed one of the three eminent law yers who revised the statutes of the United States. His services at the Geneva conference are still fresh in the public mind. His last public post was that of minister to Spain in 1873.

A PRIVATE letter from a gentleman
 in Arizona says: "I have examined
 this country with great care and find undoubted evidence of a prosp ,rous future. Arizona is today, in embryo, the great mining empire of the Paci- fic. cannot detail in a letter the mines that produce their millions, but they are many. The railroads are coming from the west and east. Their rate of progress is three miles a day; one on the Santa Fe Atchison and To- peka line, and two on the Southern Pa citic railroad. The gap will soon be closed. St. Louis will le the great commercial city with which we shall have direct dealings. Arizona will score S6,000,000 in bullion, as its pro- duct for 1878. 1 have secured one of the best mines in this country, and shall put it on the market in St. Louis. The mine is owned here, is thoroughly developed, has 800 tons of ore on its dump that will mill $12O per ton. It is thoroughly opened by shafts and levels driven all in one, and shows over 5000 tons.-Idaho

FROM FLORENCE.
A General Summary of News.

Correspondence of the HERALD.
 FLORENCE, January ,, 1879.
 A special term of the district court was held at Florence, December 30, Chef Justice French presiding, to consider the quo 'odrruRto proceedings of Gaines vs. Ruggles, in the contest ed election for the trcasurship. His honor after hearing the case dismiss. ed it, first for technical reasons and also on the ground that it was a case involving federal questions, and there fore without jurisdiction of the terri torial courts. This gives the treasur- ship to L. P. Ruggles.
 Prof. l.. E. Caldwell, of the Isabella Mining company, and Col. Wm. B. Scott, of the General Lee mine of Globe district, left for the cast on Wednesday.
 MT. Geo. Tyng, the genial editor of the Yuma Sentinel, paved flying visit to Florence on Sunday, having returned from an extended trip to Southern Arizona.
 MT. R. F. Straine, of the L. S signal corps, who has been stationed in Flor ence for some months past, left for Boston, Mass, on Wednesday, for duty at the meteorological station in that city. While in Arizona, Mir. Straine has carried on an extensive cores pondence not only with the local pa- pers of the territory, but also with the San Francisco and eastern press, and was the accredited agent for the New York Mining Record. Mir. Straine carries with him the best wishes of his many friends, with hopes for his speedy return to the tertiary.
 Mir. T. T. Moore, of Washington, has taken Mr. Straine's place at the United States military telegraph of flee in Florence.
