Panaca with its flower gardens, shady
walks, and pretty girls, is nice place to
come to during the summer months.
Come along you hill-bound Piochers, and
give your girls breath of freedom.
Joe Kelley, i'll company with young
lady from Phoebe, paid Bullion and Pa
naca flying visit on Sunday. Joe's
turnout was the finest that we have seen
in this section for many day, and was
in itself sufficient to capture the fancy of
any fair lady.
The present indications Of the weather
in this section point to wet season,
which giadeneth the hearts of our stock.
men as well as all those who depend on u
bounteous share of Natures productions
in the shape of good crops and an abund-
ant harvest.
One of the Bullion boys, who is board
ing at Lees Hotel, in Panaca, has be-
come so demoralized in consequence of an
unreciprocal affinity in his love affairs,
that he left the furnace at quitting time
few evenings since, hatless, coatless,
and without his dinner pail. What next.

The concentrations that were hereto.
fore hauled in hand barrows across the
yard after being mixed with lime, are
now raised into large bens, made for the
purpose, by a Chines pump. The con-
trivance saves the labor of two men and
does away with disagreeable branch of
the smelling business.
We were lately shown some valuable
gold nuggets brought from Osceola by X.
St Pierre, Of Bullionville. That gentle.
man speaks in glowing terms of the large
amount of the precious metal contained
in the placer diggings there, and which
only awaits the aid of capital to be
brought to the surface.
We learn that Mrs. McDougal and
family are about to take their departure
in few days for the home that Mr.. Nc.
Dougal has provided for them in Canada.
The Bullionville ladies will miss from
among them the genial Mrs. Mac. and
wish her God-speed, and pleasant jour.
| ney to her far-off home.
We learn that Secretary Frank Godbe,
who is Managing Superintendent of the
Bullionvillc works, intends shutting
down, for repairs, the furnace and tables
sometime in the latter part of the month.
| The furnace plates now in use are pretty
well burned out, and as new set arrived
lately the old ones will be replaced by
them before the furnace starts again.
The smelling company's furnace, bar.
ring accidents, will turn out more bullion
this month than any one month since it
started. This is due to tho improve
ments made in the concentrating tables
by X. St. Pierre and the judicious fore.
manship of Mr.. w. Short. The latter
gentleman says that he don't anticipate
any more trouble in working the tailings,
provided he gets halfway decent iron ore
to fluX with,
John Cook and wife departed for theil
home in New York Thursday morning
Mr.. Cook has been employed by the
smelling company for the past three
years, during which time he has savec
from his earnings the nice little sum O
s., 900, with which he has raised mort
gage from his home. This is a fair in
stance of what steady and industrious
laboring man can accomplish, aided will

We made serious mistake in engaging
ourself to write items for the RECORD
Yes, indeed, an irreparable one, for nov
our Ann Eliza will not speak to us, no
will any of the other Panaca girls, unles
it be to compare us with the editor O
that journal. Now, we don't mind s.
much not being spoken to, as the unjus
comparison, for we are, and always hav
been, more or less of lady's man, an,
to put us on a par with that virulen
bachelor is something we will not tamel
submit to.
A young gentleman from Bullionville
while rusticating in Panaca short tim
since, borrowed horse from his ir
tended's brother for the purpose of az
companying us for ashort ride up Condo
Canyon. Now, we ought not to tell tale
{ out of school, but the way the youn
man went into the air, and lit on the ia
end of that horse, only to repeat the pei
Torrance dozen times before he becam
endorsed at his dulcina's feet, is som,
, thing more than our reportorial natui
, can withhold.
