An Historical Cutter.

Virginia Chronicle: Dave Crosby
has purchased the old sleigh Of the
Bonanza Company. This cutter has
probably carried more wealth in its
time than any runnered vehicle in the
world. Itconveyed in the Winter sea-
sol all of the bullion in the palmy
days from the mills Of the company to
the assay Office and from thence TO the
place Of shipment. 1t has been in
active service as a bullion carrier for
upwards Of twenty years. The prec-
ious metal it has transported, if coined
into money, would carpet with metallic
currency a ten-acre lot, with q residue
to purchase half a dozen
seats in the United States Senate.

Indian Upraising Feared.

The Inyo Index expresses fears Of

and says that the suggestion is not to
be sneered at, as there are 1900 In
dams in the valley and vicinity, Of
which number at least 1000 can bear
arms. Opposed to them not over 600
whites can be mustered, not over 800
Of whom can get arms. The paper
calls on the incoming Legislature Of
California to provide for the organiza-
ton Of four military companies in the
valley-one each at Bishop Greek. In
dependence, Big Pine and Lone Pine.

The lee Market.

Hon. T. B. Hickey, who has just re-
turned from San Francisco, informs
the Reno Gazette that the beef
market is no market at all, 30
to speak. Every old COW in
the State OF California is being driven
into San Francisco as beef" and the
butchers do not seem to pay any at
tention to quality. Mr.. Hickey fears
that feeders in this section will not see
any better market than the present
this Winter. 1t is poor encourage
ment to feed prime steers and get them
rolling fat, and then have to compete
with California COW beef, and poor
COW beef at that.

The White Pine News OF the 18th
instant says; Sol Hip has filed his
petition in insolvency in the District
Court of the State OF Nevada for the
protection Of his creditors, and the
Sheriff took possession of his store
yesterday. The temporary financial
embarrassment which led to this step
is not at all likely to prove injurious to
either Mr.. Hip or his creditors. The
house has sufficient solvent debts to
more than meet all claims against it.
But the extremely dull period Of the
past two years in this section has
made collections hard, and our people
have had to bear patiently with one
another. We hope to see the business
Strengthened out satisfactorily to all
parties when the creditors meet. But
whatever turn affairs may take, we
feel it but justice to say that Mr..
Hip deserves we'll OF this community.
He has carried it for more than two
years, and if he could only get in me-
half his just dues, his San Francisco
creditors could be appeased at short
notice.

Wallace was at the head OF the scheme
