NICKEL MINES OF NEVADA CORE
spondent of the Eureka Sentinel writes
from Lovelock, as follows:
1t is automatically reported that the great
est nickel property on this coast, and in
TACT the most extensive yet discovered. has
been sold to New York capitalists This
property was discovered in 1880 by the Bell
brothers, in range of mountains border
ing ON the great salt desert of Churchill
county. The London mine, which is be
yond doubt the most wonderful of the
group, ls-situated at the junction of Cot
tonWood and Bolivia canyons, and as far as
developed has proved the richest nickel ore
that has ever been found. 1t NAV be of
interest to give the various characters of ore
that are found on this property The most
characteristic being grade called arseniate.
which Is found in well-defined veins in
large quantities. varying from 90 to % Der
cent. metal, while character called arse
mite, which runs i'll conjunction with the
hrst-named character will grade from 10
to 81 per cent. metal There Is also another
grade, called arsenic sulphur, which lies in
large bodies, but the most extensive char
acter Is the silicate, which lies in bodies
over one hundred and fifty feet wide.
There was also included in the sale three
other locations, which are considered equal
in richness to those described From what
has thus far been done upon the property.
1t Is safe to say that tile new compay can
produce all the nickel used in the world for
the next twenty years, and 1t is understood
that complete plant will be put uron the
property within sixty days, and the prop
erty put upon a paying basis, which will
equal those of the Comstock in its palmiest
days. | have not heard what amount was
paid for the mines, but believe it to be
very large, as S15O,000 was offered a year
ago

GRANTS REReIsEr.

The statement of Mr.. Depew of General
Grants recitals to him of his refusal to
obey the commands of President johnson,
in carrying out policy which, if persisted
in, would assuredly have plunged the
country into another civil war is of the
profoundest interest, and the first that has
come direct from Grants lips on the sub
.lect. 1t agrees substantially with the be-
lief that has long been entertained, that
the General actually threatened the Presi-
dent with rebellion, and to call together
the old soldiers and resist the lawful
authority. 1t was a terrible responsibility
to take, but Grant was, of all men, the one
to assume it, if need demanded.
The revelation presents General Grants
character in a new light-that of savior
of the country from a second internicine
war, by absolute boarding Of the chief
Executive Of the nation by threat to defy
his authority and to oppose it by force of
arms. Yet this modest mantle foremost,
in his day, of all men in the nation
never boosted of this great achievement,
or told the people of the precipice upon
which they had stood, and how he had, by
most dangerous but most masterful de-
vice, saved them from an awful peril.
Those of this day, who were of mature
years in the time of the rebellion, will
shudder to think what might have hap
pened, and what might have been the ulti-
mate fate OF the country of their love, had
a less brave and saGacious man than Cen
eral Grant have been POSSESSED of the
power he held in the hollow of his hand.
An ambitious man, one less conscientious.
one-iess uutelfish, one caring more for self
and less for country, would have yielded to
the Presidents demand, and have violated
the solemn agreement under which the
army of Northern Virginia surrendered
and the compact by which Grant and the
nation pledged safety to those who laid
down their arms, and immunity from
the natural results Of their rebellion One
less courageous than Ulysses S. Grant would
have hesitated to assume the position of a
rebel, and to defy the country's head for
the eountry's good. One more susceptible
to the traditional duty of the soldier to
obey his superior officer at all hazards,
would have bowed to the commands of the
President in his capacity of Commander
in-Chief, and the fruits of the war, in that
case, would have been irretirevably lost, the
Inien, in all probability, have been per
manently disrupted, and the hopes of the
world in the possibilities of selfgovern-
ment among men have been blasted.
The people of the North and South have
reason to-day to be proudor of General
Grant than Ut any period in the past.
They should not hesitate another hour to
lit in his honor the noblest monuments
that desire can conceive, or be laggard an
other moment in writing in eternal marble
and enduring bronze their tributes to his
character, for the eyes of ali future gene
rations, and rs perpetual reminders to
pasterity of the gratitude of free people
n the true patriot.

JOAQUIN MURIETTA's SLAYER.-The fol-
lowing is furnished by the Santa Cruz Sen
tinel
Isaac Richardson. of this city, claims
that the gun found by William Greenleaf
in the Santa Cruz mountains is not the one
with which Harry Love killed JOAQUIN
Murietta. Mr.. Richardson SAYS he was a
resident of Calaveras county when JOAQUIN
and his pal, Three-fingered Jack" were
pursued by the Rangers. He saw Love a
few days after the pursuit of the outlaws
Love and several members of the party
brought with them the head of JOAQUIN
and the hand of Three-fingered jack
Some one asked him who killed JOAQUIN.
He replied that either Henderson or White
killed him. He did not know which one.
as both fired at him. When Joaquin was
pursued he jumped over a precipice, and
they followed after him. Love admitted
that he killed " Three-tingered Jack with
his pistol. Love and Jack were on horse
back, when Jack turned back on his sad
die and fired ut Love several times. one
bullet grazing Loves ear. Love fired nine
shots before he killed him. The bandit
was hit several times, but the last bullet
proved fatal and distigured his face SO that
they did not take his head Mr.. Richard
son says that the gun in Greenleafs posses
sion might have been owned by Love but
it was not used in the pursuit of the out
laws. The head and hand were placed on
exhibition at Murphys Camp, and an adj
mission fee of one dollar was charged,
which the citizens paid willingly, feeling
grateful toward the Rangers for Kidding the
country of the outlaws. Three-fineered
Jack used to cut the tlroats of Cinnamon
for the pleasure" as he stated, 'sof feel
ing his knife grit against their neckbones.' y
Love stood against the bar in Sperry's Ho-
tel, in Murphys, and, in relating the cir
cumstance, said We each of US singled
out man. / singled out Three-fingered
Jack because he was the ugliest in his
crowd, and | considered myself the ugliest
one in our crowd.

The Burned Courthouse.

BAKER CITY, October 21st-The contents
OF the various offices in the Courthouse,
burned yesterday, are a total loss. The
assessment roll, however had been copied,
and copy expressed TO the Secretary of
State. The records of the Circuit Court for
the last two terms were burned. The fee
books of the Sheriff and Clerk were
burned, and cannot be duplicated. The loss
to the county is enormous, the delinquent
tax list being totally destroyed, and the
presumption is that the fire was started for
the purpose of destroying the Court records
with cattle-stealing, who was granted a
change of venue TO Union county. The
Courthouse will probably be rebuilt; of
brick OF stone, as soon as the County Court
conveneS.

DEATH UNDER SAD CIRCUMsTANcEs.-We
find the following in the Chico Chronicle of
October 10Th
About year ago anewly-married couple
arrived in Chico from the East and took
up quarters at one of the boarding-houses.
The young people seemed to be very happy,
and in conversation with people they be-
came acquainted with, it was made known
that they proposed to settle down in this
community and engage in farming She
was handsome and intelligent, and he APP
peared to be a young man of good habits.
1t was learned that they had fallen in love
in Illinois, married and immigrated to Cali
fornia. They gave the names of Mr.. and
Mrs. Grubbs. When they married she had
81 500-a snug sum for young woman
living at the East. The money in part paid
the expenses of their trip out here, and lust
one week after their arrival the young man
took all the remaining coin and disap-
peared and nothing had been heard of him
since. His wife, almost distracted by the
sudden and totally unexpected desertion
among entire strangers, without money
hardly knew what to. do. But, being a
plucky little woman she soon found work
in a family, and has ever since been en-
ployed at various places in town. She was
highly respected, and was constant at
tendant at church. A week ago she was
taken i'll with typhoid fever, which caused
her death at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon
at the residence of Mrs. J. Decker. The
young woman has had hard struggle
since leaving her native State, but she has
battled nobly. Her death was very sad,
especially as she was to have been married
on Saturday last TO a Woodworking, highly
respected young man of this city. she hav-
ing secured divorce from her truant bus
band and resumed her maiden name
Minnie Swonger.

THE SToNEY EXPEDITIoN.-Says the VAL

Advices from the Stoney exploring expe-

established 80 miles up the Putnam river,
and the camp named Fort Cosmos. The
portable sawmill is a great success. The
party have now &c good dogs. and will get
two more, so that there will be four teams.
The native women brought from St.
Michael's are kept busy drying salmon for
dog feed. All hands are well and in the
best of spirits. Ii is claimed by some that
the Corwin party, under Lieutenant Can't
well, did not get as far up the river as re-
ported, but this statement lacks proper
confirmation, and there seems to be no suf-
ficient grounds for impeaching Lieutenant

ing this to be true, and it is stated with
circumstantiality of detail, the fact is es-
tablished that there have been, and now
are, leaks in the San Francisco Custom
house that need immediate stoppage. We
