On Wednesday the ballasting force were ‘about one mile this side of the Idaho mine, ~ andthe work was progressing well, ‘Some time next week the tack-laying will be completed to this city, and the contractor is.firmlyof the opinion that, unless something unforseen should occur, he will. be able to give the road.overto the company by the 16th day of Muy, if not before, . : The company are doing a fine busimess in carrying freight and pussenfux, aud when the road is completed to this city it will be increased immensely.

Mike Craigis the engineer of the “Grass Valley,’’ anda better man for the position it*¥vould be hard to find. The conductor, Dave McKinney, isa very popular man, and as __gehtlemanly as he is good looking, a ; That Vete. President Grant has vetoed the bill reducing the salary of the President of the United States,from $50,000-to $25,000. Grant is~not a candidate for re-election, and therefore ‘the—bill_was—not—vetoed-beeause it would affect him. The Democrats will uot have a word to say against this action of the President, because they are hopeful of having@ne of their own number in that/chair on the 4th day of next March. We approve of the veto, because we think the $50,000 salary is tittle enough. Tt was first fixed at $25,000 just after the Revolutionary war, when we had enly. 3,000,000 of population, and were poor. At that time members of _ Gongress got $6 a day for serviees rendered, and served, on an average, 120 days a year, making $720 yearly salary. Now they get--more than $30 a day for each day of service rendered, allowing a. five months, session,each year. The President intimates that, with this increase in the salary of Congressmen, the President’s salary at $50,000 is not by auy means out of proportion to whut it wasthen. The veto says that the President knows, from his experience, sbat a sulary of $25,000 is inadequate.

This most wonderful musical prod. igy im the world, who has had such brilliant success in San Francisco, has been prevailed upon to give one of his marvelous exhibitions in the Nevada Theatre, on Saturday evening. Mr. Shepard sings from the lowest notes to the highest ever attained by Jenny Lind in her best days. He plays a grand march in whick the piano is saidto keep time with the music, and the noise of drums and the clash of savage instruments are heard during the rage of the great battle piece. The Grass Valley Union says that nothing equal tohis music has ever been heard there, and that is saying everything, for they have listened to the great Auna Bishop, Parepa Rosa and Catherine Huyes, when they were in the zenith of theirfame as singers.

They have commenced the agitation of a horse car railroad, aud it should by all means be built immediately. The cost of such a road would-be trifling compared with the profits-of it and convehience to the people. Many who have had occasion to walk from the hotel to that depot complain about there not beis any enterprise iu Grass Vulleyans theywill remedy the evil Morthwith. j In. speaking—of this matter, the . Union suys: ‘‘Itis proposed by a uumber. of our whom are heavy capitalists, to. construct ‘a horse railroad from the, corner of Main and Church streets down Main street and up Bennett street to the railroad depot. The track will also-run from the corner of Mill and Neal streets along Mill to Main street where it will connect with the Main street, line, Over this borsé car track a passenger coach cam be run, and possibly freight cars may come ‘In front of most of the heavy. businéss houses of the town.

It is proposed then to get up a company so as to allow everybody to have a chance to help the enterprise and to become interested in its success. Now then, reader, what do you think about it? Have youa spare’ ten dollars, or can you borrow-a ten-to-helpthat we are advocating the scheme, but we tell just what we have heard talked, There fsno doubt that sometime in the future, and not far away ut that, horse cars. will be running along the route we have mentioned and_eveh down-Mill street as far as Boston Ravine.”’ = News From Pinney, The woman Georgie Coslar, who accompanied’ the navy defaulter, George M. Pinney, in his flight; has returned to-San Francisco from Braz4, Via Liverpool and New York. Owing to the extreme reluctance of the woman to talk upon the subject, but few particulars of Pinney’s movements can be obtained from her. Her story, as indirectly told, is as follows: Upon the sailing vessel which bore Pinney away putting into the port of Pernambuco, Brazil, Pinney and the woman debarked for the purpose of visiting the town: “While walking along the streets Pinney offered her $1,000 if she would consider their relations at an end, an offer whicb was accepted, and the money was at-once paid over. They continued walking along the streets and finally entered “a store to examine some articles on sale. While her atPinney slipped out of the store unseen by-her and the bystanders. A eareful search revealed no trace —of his whereabouts. All endeavor ‘to find Pinney being fruitless, she took passage for Liverpool, and after—remaing there a short time; crossed the ocean to New York, and then proceeded overland to San Francisco. She has stated that Pinney carried a comparatively small amount of wnoney with him on his voyage, $10,000 being as near an approximation of the amoust as she can make.

This most wonderful musical prod. igy im the world, who has had such brilliant success in San Francisco, has been prevailed upon to give one of his marvelous exhibitions in the Nevada Theatre, on Saturday evening. Mr. Shepard sings from the lowest notes to the highest ever attained by Jenny Lind in her best days. He plays a grand march in whick the piano is saidto keep time with the music, and the noise of drums and the clash of savage instruments are heard during the rage of the great battle piece. The Grass Valley Union says that nothing equal tohis music has ever been heard there, and that is saying everything, for they have listened to the great Auna Bishop, Parepa Rosa and Catherine Huyes, when they were in the zenith of theirfame as singers.

They have commenced the agitation of a horse car railroad, aud it should by all means be built immediately. The cost of such a road would-be trifling compared with the profits-of it and convehience to the people. Many who have had occasion to walk from the hotel to that depot complain about there not beis any enterprise iu Grass Vulleyans theywill remedy the evil Morthwith. j In. speaking—of this matter, the . Union suys: ‘‘Itis proposed by a uumber. of our whom are heavy capitalists, to. construct ‘a horse railroad from the, corner of Main and Church streets down Main street and up Bennett street to the railroad depot. The track will also-run from the corner of Mill and Neal streets along Mill to Main street where it will connect with the Main street, line, Over this borsé car track a passenger coach cam be run, and possibly freight cars may come ‘In front of most of the heavy. businéss houses of the town. It is said that a company for the ‘construction of such a road can be easily Organized, and that it will ba, as -soan as estimates of expenses of constructing und stocking the road can be made. We tnhderstand that -Mr. Bates or Mr, Bethel will soon be authorized . to miake the proper surveys and to make the estimates of cost. It is proposed then to get up a company so as to allow everybody to have a chance to help the enterprise and to become interested in its success. Now then, reader, what do you think about it? Have youa spare’ ten dollars, or can you borrow-a ten-to-helpthat we are advocating the scheme, but we tell just what we have heard talked, There fsno doubt that sometime in the future, and not far away ut that, horse cars. will be running along the route we have mentioned and_eveh down-Mill street as far as Boston Ravine.”’ = News From Pinney, The woman Georgie Coslar, who accompanied’ the navy defaulter, George M. Pinney, in his flight; has returned to-San Francisco from Braz4, Via Liverpool and New York. Owing to the extreme reluctance of the woman to talk upon the subject, but few particulars of Pinney’s movements can be obtained from her. Her story, as indirectly told, is as follows: Upon the sailing vessel which bore Pinney away putting into the port of Pernambuco, Brazil, Pinney and the woman debarked for the purpose of visiting the town: “While walking along the streets Pinney offered her $1,000 if she would consider their relations at an end, an offer whicb was accepted, and the money was at-once paid over. They continued walking along the streets and finally entered “a store to examine some articles on sale. While her atPinney slipped out of the store unseen by-her and the bystanders. A eareful search revealed no trace —of his whereabouts. All endeavor ‘to find Pinney being fruitless, she took passage for Liverpool, and after—remaing there a short time; crossed the ocean to New York, and then proceeded overland to San Francisco. She has stated that Pinney carried a comparatively small amount of wnoney with him on his voyage, $10,000 being as near an approximation of the amoust as she can make.
