At meeting of the Directors of the
insane Asylum held at Stockton on
Wednesday, the question of DIR. Haryey's
mileage was taken under consideration.
Pending motion to refer it to a snecial
committee DR.. Harvey asked to be heard.
He was satisfied that not member Of the
Board would believe he would knowingly
draw illegal mileage. He had supposed
that he had been entitled to mileage from
Sacramento, the county seat of his county.
He wanted the matter disposed of at once,
and it was left with him to settle with the
Secretary. The law on the subject was
examined and read, and it was shown by
Director Harvey (who lives at Galt), in
common with the others, had supposed
mileage was to be computed from the
county seat of the county travelled from,
as legal distances are computed from that
point Dr. Harvey declared his readiness
to at once refund any mileage improperly
drawn, and declared most solemnly his
entire innocence of irregularity in the
matter.

Quite an important strike was yesterday
made in the Lower Comstock. Silver CITY.
This mine was formerly the Emigrant and
Cherokee. The strike is on the l40-level,

ore found nearer the surface some three
years ago in the Cherokee ground little to
the southwark of thepresent new shaft. The
streak then struck was about two and a
half feet in width, and two or three smaller
veins made against it. One run of ore
from these streaks milled $50 per ton.
Assays from the ore struck yesterday as
high as 5000 per ton are reported The

City, has lease ON the same vein some
distance north, which he is working near
the surface and which he is making pay.
OF whatever width the body of ore may

Richard Lafayette Hall, who mysterious
ly disappeared from Wilbur's ranch in SUIT
ter county on the I'd instant, was still
missing at laSt acCOuntS. IL is reported
that he took away his blankets from VIII
bur's house on the day of his sudden de-
parture. This fact seems to indicate that
if Mr.. Hall became insane there was
method in his madness. 1t is said that
Hall went back to Kentucky two years
ago, telling some of his friends here before
he left tina. he had an old score there to
settle with somebody. He returned after
an absence of a few months, but had never
since made any reference to the obligation
which he had gone to wipe out. Some of
his acquaintance surmise that when Hall
was in this city ON Monday he saw some
body from Kentucky whom he had reason
to avoid, and that he therefore slipped off
quietly out of harms way. Another story
is that Hall was seen in gambling house
here on Monday night, displaying consid-
cradle money, and hence it has been sur
missed that he was afterwards murdered
for his coin. These are mere rumors, and
may have no foundation. The disappear
ance OF the man is made more unaccounts-
BILE by the fact that he has money out at
interest with several residents of Suffer
county, to whom he gave no hint that he
intended to go away Marysville Appeal.
