In the crowd Of 5000 immigrants that
arrived at Castle Garden Wednesday was
a party Of stalwart English brewers, fifty
in number, who say they have come over
to see if they cannot introduce the English
hop beer to the Anglo-Americans and make
it take the place of the popular German
American lager. They bring with them
considerable capital, and it is their inten-
ton to start an experimental brewery,
probably in Philadelphia. They are from
Preston, near Manchester, where they W
brew houses. Said one: 1--WE have tasted
your lager, and, while admitting that it is
light and pleasant to the taste, it is not
equally so refreshing nor wholesome as
our beer brewed from hops. II the Amer
lean people can be persuaded fairly to test
E%nglish-made beer they would acquire
such a liking for it that they would drink
nothing else. 1t is both refreshing, and
stimulating, and the people who partake OF
it rarely drink spurious liquors. 1t can
be sold at 50 per barrel and three cents
per glass, and will be found quite as good
as the imported article.

The Southend's Water.

Captain Taylor, being interviewed at
Reno by the Gazette man, stated that nc
definite arrangements for the draining Of
the southend mines had been made, but
he hopes to see something done. There is
no trouble about doing it if the money
can be raised, but the companies are in a
bad shape financially. Belcher has had to
take in 80, 900 shares for assessments, and
Imperial has taken in over 200, 900 out of
its 500, 900 shares. Caledonia and other
mines are clear off the Board. The way
they wan to go to work is to run a drift
from the Sutro Tunnel to the Belcher
shaft, put in another pump there, then turn
loose with the big pumps in the Jacket and
Forman Shaft and the Belcher pumps.
The Captain thinks there will be plenty Of
work on the Comstock for years to come.
He says the low grade ores are being
worked now. Belcher ore is being taken
out, but is being sold to parties for 50
cents a ton. He has hopes of Union and
Alta.

BlackleS Among Cattle.

Pete Marker, the well-known lumber,
ranch and cattle man of Washoe County
and elsewhere in the western part Of the
State, says that the peculiar new disease
among cattle, generally known as black
leg, is more destructive than most people
are aware of. He says the disease is con-
fined almost exclusively to young calves,
and, strange to say, those in good condi-
ton; a poor, half starved calf seldom, if
ever, takes the disease, and never dies Of
it. Mr.. Marker lost over 800 head Of
young calves on his Humboldt ranch last
Winter, and all with this disease. He says
the disease first made its appearance
among the cattle at Stein Mountain, in the
northern portion of Humboldt County,
and is slowly travelling toward the south
west. There seems to be no cure for the
disease, or any means of preventing its
spreading.

EsansIEnd Dead.

John 7. Pantlind, who became pretty
we'll known in Nevada from having kept
the Ormsby House at Carson for several
years, died in San Francisco last Friday.
"Pant," as he was Familiarity called, was a
peculiar fellow in some respects, loud in
dress and manner, especially when rugged
out in fantastic garb he mounted his sable
mustang to make a whole circus by him self
on the streets of the Capitol. This was
not all empty show, however, but had a
good deal of advertisement in it. At all
events pant understood his business, and
he wasn't second to anybody in running a
hotel. He was SO years of age, and a ma
tive of Sandusky, Ohio. He served
through a good part of the War of Seces-
sion, and was wounded three times. He
contracted consumption by exposure in
Arizona and New Mexico. Suffering from
this ailment he came to San Francisco for
treatment, and there died, He was a big
hearted fellow, a jolly companion, and he
had many friends.

and stabbed James between the sixth and
seventh ribs, infiicting a wound from
which he died in a few minutes. John
was also severely cut in the neck. He re-
members very little of the quarrel, and

The Celebration I'm FrOnG of Tommy
Douglas and in Chinatown.

Douglas and in Chinatown
The news that President Arthur had
signed the ten-year Anti Chinese bill was
received in Eureka yesterday afternoon
with universal satisfaction and delight.
Republicans and Democrats were all of one
mind. In fact, there is no such thing as
party feeling on this question on the Pa
ciic Coast. 1t is now a national question
between the two parties, however, made so
by the evident ro-Chinese proclivities of
the Republican majority in Congress. But,
all feeling alike in this community, and
beng pleased to hear that the Anti-Chinese
bill had become a law, it would have been
easy, it would have needed but a sug-
gestion, to getup a celebration of the event
worthy of the name. Some few Jealous
partisans of the black Republican sort,
however, thought they saw a fine opportu-
nifty for some artificial thunder, and they
embraced it-opportunity, thunder and
all. The more thoughtful and discreet
Republicans were not so p%recipitate in
raising a rumpus on 80 slight and so
equivocal an occasion. 1t occurred to
them that if a celebration were under
taken exclusively by either party in Eu-
reka. 1t would be proper for the Democrats
to celebrate, and that they, the Republi-
cans, would appear more gracefully aside,
shedding tears in silence for the lateness
and strangeness of their Presidents con-
version. Anyway, there was enough of
''universal-brotherhood" feeling to ignore
all minor considerations, and a solitary
little bonfire was started in front Of head
quarters-Tommy Douglas. Two anvils
were brought upon the scene of the glori-
f~ication, and q number of shots fred.
While this was going on below there was
no lack of noise in Chinatown, also. For
every anvil discharge there were a pack of
firecrackers and a bomb or so turned
loose. The Cinnamon say they are glad
of the Presidents signature. They have
plenty of work now, but if more China
men come they will have less and lose
money. There is no doubt of their SINGER
itv.

Too long I AN tossed like the driven toam'
But now, proud world, I'm going home

To Grandeur with his wild grimace;
To upstart Wealth's averted eye,
To supple office, low and high;

TIC frozen hearts and hasting feet;
To those who go and those who come,
Good-by, proud world, I'm going home!
I go to seek my own hearthstone,
Bosomed in yon green hills alone;
A secret lodge in a pleasant land,
Whose groves the frolic fairies planned
Where arches green the livelong day
Echo the blackbird's roundelay,
And evil men have never trod
A spot that Ia sacred to thought and God.
Oh, when I am safe IN my sylvan home,

And when 1 am stretched beneath the pines,
Where the evening star 80 holy shines,

At the sophist schools, and the learned clan
For what are they all in their high coneeit.
