New YEARS DAY at Bullionville passed
very quietly and the people there all en-
joyed themselves. But such was not the
case, we are sorry to say, at the sanity
village of Panaca. At the latter place
it was made pretty lively at Wedges by

there, after having imbibed quanty of
Dixie wine, and DESTROYS of celebrating
the day in grand style they called for

they paid for it. Two of the men pitched
into Mrs. Wedge saying they could whip
woman, and one of them hit her in the
side; but she defended herself nobly,
hitting one one of them with spittoon
and the the other with stool.
