A TRIP TO NOGAL.

On Wednesday morning we ac-
ccpted an invitation extended us
by Nat Moore, to ride with him to
Nogal, and in his company, and
that of Joshua Wayne, we made
the trip behind n brisk span Of
mules, arriving at our objective
point at the hour of noon. After
partaking of surptuous dinner,
prepared by the deft hands of Mrs.
Moore, b. M. Whitney reigned up
in front of Wayne's store with a
span of mules, and invited US to
accompany him to Gill's mine.
This was Just in our hand, and we
freely accepted, and were soon
wheeling through Dry Gulch. The
first thing which attracted our at
tention was the placier property Of
Chase & Uockradle, stretching
over ii territory of some two miles.
Months and much money have
been expended by the enterprising
proprietors, in building sluice ways
from the head OF Nogal Canon, and
around to Dry Gulch through
which to convey adequate water
for their works, and which is now
well nigh secured, and early in the
ensuing month operations will be
vigorously prosecuted. This is no
experiment, as much money has
already been secured in the
gulch in years long past. The
original discoverer was named
Mcpherson, who, in 70, while
prosecuting his work, was killed by
the Indians. Some have it that
Nc was a partner OF Gill's, but he
was not. All operations hereto
fore have been dLne on a small
scale, but they will now be pushed
for all that money and energy will
be worth, and that a fortune in
'vites, and will speedily reward,
there can be no doubt.
Soon we arrived in front of Jer
ry Hockradle's residence, adjoining
which Gov. Chase has erected a
spacious building. which will soon
be occupied by him aud wife as a
suburban home.
About 3 o'clock, p. M, we ar
rived at W. ellis mine, and Fletch
er's mill in that section Of Dry
Gulch. which is localized under
the name OF "Gill's' Gulch. We
had heard much of this mine and
mill, but were not long in coming
to the conclusion that the half had
not been told, and a Munchausen
could scarcely tax his ingenuity
sufficient to eXagerate it, We pen
etrated the tunnel of the mine,
which was light within as without
and on either side the gold glioten
ed and sparkled, while the truck
displaced by the pick revealed ricl
deposits. Gill is cutting acros;
his lead, and has already penetrat
cd his lead 90 feet, and has not ye
cut into its centre. He first diScov
cred his mine in 20, did Il littl,
work upon it, and went off, return

Some scientists assert that the
sense of touch is the first of the
five to be overcome by the ap-
proach Of death. DR.. Crawford
says that dying man may be
burned with a red-hot iron and not
feel pain. In cases OF death in
which there seems to be suffering,
the writhing and spasms arc due to
reflex muscular action. Fear weak
ems the nervous system, and conse-
quently hastens death ; and the re-
verse often prolongs life.

So mild is the weather in North
Wales that primroses, honeysuck-

be found blooming in the valleys
and on the hillsides. Vegetation
in the low lying districts is also
fast springing into life, and in the
Vale of Llangollen fruit trees are
in bloom. Tourists are enabled to
scale the mountains without diff
culty-feats which, when previ-
ously attempted at this season of
the year, have been attended with

West Randolph in Flames.

An extensive fire visited West Ran
dolph on Saturday, the 9th. 1t caught
in the basement of w. E.. Lamson's
furniture store. the alarm was
promptly given and Fountain Engine
Co. promptly responded. 1t was at
first thought the fire could be con-
trolled, but the oils and inflam mable
material carried the flames into the
partitions and the building was
doomed. 1t was at once cleared as
well as possible. The adjoining stores
of j. D. Mitchell and n. M. Draper
on the north, and E. A. Thomas, D..
G. Mann & Co., H. NJ. Wires, etc.,
we're cleared out, as it was evident
nothing could be saved. The stores
of Tewksbury & Sons, Samuel Bass
Dubois & Gays block were hastily
protected as well as possible and in
the end, by hard fighting, saved. The
fire soon spread to the French block
and from that to S. NJ. Flint's block.
An effort was made to check the fire
on the Blue Store, but without sue
cess. Aid was summoned from North
field, Montpelier and South Royalton.
The Central Vermont railroad prompt
ly sent special trains for these engines.
The South Royalton company, and a
fine one, too, was there in Is minutes
after leaving home. In spite Of all
exertions the flames burned the en-
tire square between Main and Pleas
ant streets and Merchants row, in
Guiding the Cottage hotel. The ag-
gregate loss cannot be far from $751;
900, and it is a severe blow to the
prosperity of the village, but the bus
mess men are plucky, and the work of
rebuilding will soon be commenced.
Mr.. Dodge, of the Cottage hotel, tel
egraphed for a contractor and archi-
tect before his building was in ashes,
and will at once rebuild, probably a
large brick house, such as the place
has always needed. He has set a
good example to the other business

There are now in the Senate SO Re-
publicans, Sc Democrats and BREAD
iusters, Malone and Riddleberger.
After the 4th of next March the Sen
ate will be more decidedly Republi-
IAN. Farley, from California, and
Slater, from Oregon, both Democrats,
will be succeeded by Republican SEN
ators. The elections in the other
States that choose Senators next
winter will not effect the relative par
ty representation in the Senate, un-
less Illinois, whose Legislature is al
most exactly divided between the two
parties, elects q Democrat in the place
of Gen. Logan. 1t is possible that
no Senator will be chosen by the Leg
islature elect. In that case Gen. Lo-
gan would doubtless have a majority
in the next Legislature. But even
with a Democratic Senator from Hi
nois in place of Logan, the Senate for
two years from the 4th of March
next will contain thirty-nine Republi-
cans /; Malone and Riddleberger, of
Virginia, who have acted with the
Republicans, and thirty-ive Demo-
Gratis. The terms of Fair, Of Neva-
da, and Malone, of Virginia. will end
with the Senate beginning the 4th of
March, 1887. Fair, who is a Demo-
crat, is likely to be succeeded by a
Republican. Mahone's place may or
may not be filed by a Democrat. If
it is. the two parties will remain in
the same relative strength in the Sem
ate the last two, as they will be in
the first two years of Mr.. Cleveland's
term.

The Electoral Colleges of the sev-
eral States met last week Wednesday
and cast their votes for President and
Vice President. Blaine and Logan re-
ceived 1872 votes, and Cleveland and
Hendricks PIG. This purely formal
declaration of a result already known
attracts but little attention. Nomina-
ting conventions have usurped the du-
ties intended to be performed by the
Electoral College, and a reform that
would do away with this clumsy and
unnecessary system would be gladly
welcomed.
