North-End Mines shat Down.

Virginia City papers, just to hand,
bring this intelligence /: The result Of
the conference [of mining c%ompaniesl
is that the Sierra Nevada, Union;
Mexican and ophir are to jointly con-
tribute towards the sinking of the
Mexican winze to the $4,000 level, or
fur her. This purse was decided
upon at the suggestion of Superin-
tendent Patton, being regarded as the
most economical that could be pur-
sued in view OF the difficulty OF col
Letting assessments. The Mexican
Wine presents the most favorable
prospects. The money on hand in
the treasures of all the companies
named will be- spent IN this Wine to
the 33, 900 level and in thoroughly ex-
ploring that level by means Of drifts
and cros-cuts. All exploring work
in Ophir, Union and Sierra Nevada
will be suspended. The pumps are
to be kept running and the mines
kept free from water. Nothing will
be disturbed in the lower levels, and
the wild ramors that s'the mines are
to be dismantled" are pronounced all
nonsense. There were until Monday
last about 124 men employed In and
about the mines. To sink the Mexi
can Wine 48 men will be required,
thus throwing about "A miners and
top men cut OF employment. The
Mexican Wine is now down ten feet
below the 32, 900 level, the deepest
excavation in the world.

Ths Opposition TO Blains.

The newspaper opposition to Blaine
becomes more portsntous every day.
The list Of the Independent and Re-
publican journals which are openly
committed against him stands now:
New York Times, New York Herald,
Harper's Weekly, Puck, Evening Tel
egram, Brooklyn Union, Rochester
Post Express, Rochester Herald,
Syracuse Herald, Flushing Times,
Boston Advertiser, Boston Transcript,
Boston Herald, Springfield Repub-
lican, Philadelphia Record, Philadel-
phia Times, Chicago Times, Chicago
News, New Haven News, and the
New York Evening Post. In addition
to these the Chicago Inter-0cean, the
st Louis Globe-Democrat, the Buffalo
Express, the Buffalo Commercial Ad-
vertiser, the Philadelphia Telegraph,
the Boston Journal, the Worcester
Spy, and many other Republican par
ty journals consent to support the
ticket, but admit that they have small
hope of seeing it elected. We do not
believe any candidate of a part ever
entered upon = Presidential canvas
with such tremendous odds as these
against him. In New York the Tribune
is the only papor which supports
Blaine s~quarely. The Commercial
Advertiser has no: defined its curse
clearly, but it evidently has no inten-
ton OF advocating Blaine, for it says
that his nomination was u 'glorious
victory" won by the s'Star route gang,
the cowboys, and the intriguing pol
iticians." The Mail and Express IL
doubtful also, saying that "this may
be a bad year for Republicans, unless
entirely united and well guided"

The Reno Gazette says: Robert
Pitcher, of Winnemucca Valley, is in
town looking for some men to work
on his ranch. He says the cricket
pest has made its appearance in the
valley, and 10 ave his fields he has
had his whole family out for the last
two days fighting them off by drum
ming on pans and ringing bells. Be-
fore leaving home yesterday morning
he had succeeded in changing the III.
rection of the moving destroyers. He
describes the present army as being
n mile wide and two miles long, and
making havoc of such vegetation as
they pass over. When he left yes
tsIday morning another wing of the
army was making for Frank Dicksn-
sons ranch, but he thought they
would be sloped off so that the ranch
would escape.
