* immense 6xecution: NEVADA CITY, CALIFORNIA, comet -, LOCAL INTELLIGENCE,” Mine at Retiree Hot.—Since the strike by the Welsh Co. at Relief Hill the miners in that locality. have been greatly encouraged. The channel struck by this company is supposed. te be a continuation of iat worked by . the Union Co., on account of the similarity of the gold and nature of the deposits. If this-be the case, all the companies working upon that range _.will eventually open on the same chan“nel, and the little camp will grow to a} Fespectable town. The Eagle, Welsh, Union;~What Cheer and North Star companies “are now washing. The Union Co. cleaned-up ‘$3,400 last week. This is. the ground in-which the tremendous blast of 450 kegs™ef_ powder _ was discharged, last Fall. There. was a question as to the success of this blaat-. but the company is now opening on the ground loosened; and find that it did The North Star company last week discharged a blast or 200 kegs of powder, which loosened up an immense body of dirt, Besideg the operations of these companies, a large amount of prospecting is being done in the vicinity. MINING at EurREKA.—The Snap Company struck a splendid ledge last week. This company has been running for the lead about one year. The point where the ledge was tapped was 200 feet below the surface, and gold ‘could be seen in nearly every piece. of rock taken out. Sam. Hartley, who left ' Eureka on Friday last says the snow was nine feet deep. N otwithstanding . the deep snow a large amount of under. . " ground work has been done during the Winter, and the leads are “looking up” as the miners go down. It is predicted that Eureka will be a very lively place during the Summer. MINING IN Lirt.e York. -Towx-— snip.—Nefirly all the hydraulic mining companies in Little York township are now at work. At You Bet nine compa_ nies are washing, with excellent pros pects. The cement mines are also yielding good returns. The Brown Bros. have struck richer. cement. than they have ever had before. From their claim $3,000 were taken out last week. ~Neece & West are averaging about 31,500 per week, and Heydliff—has struck first-rate cement. The Chalk Bluff Gravel Mining Co., Stranahan, Superintendent, is doing well. They have struck fine bed of gravel, containing. coarse gold, and expect to. take out a large amount of “dust” during the season. All through Little York township the miners are prepared for work, . and have-every prospect for-a—presperous season. SaLE or Mining CLAmMs.—Mr. Nichols of Columbia Hill, recently purchased a set of mining claims from Mr. Jones, at Grizzly Hill, for $17,000. There is every prospect that extensive mining operations will be conducted in these claims during the present season. They are situated on the ridge above Cooper's bridge on the Yuba. Tae Mouawk.—The Mohawk quartz mine was last worked by Kidd & Tisdale, and they lost the shaft in 1866, at a time when they were taking out ex, cellent specimen rock. The mine has since passed into the hands of Mr. Bar. ber, and will, we understand, be opened thisSummer. . A New Lepce —Mr. Stede, the otiginal locator of the Mohawk ledge, has struck a four foot ledge about.a mile from town’and east of the Grass Valley toad. The ledge has a first rate appearance and the rock looks as though it would pay well. THEY HAVE Come!—A.

It consists of a ‘globe or socket joint, havitiga canting fifteen inches in diameter.. The inner hemisphere fits smoothly to the inner surface of the outer sphere—the former being sup‘plied with the escape pipe and the latter with the supply pipe. The entrance is six inches in diameter and the escape five and a half. The pressure of water on the interior of the globe causes the ‘surface to fit closely together and-there is no leakage. The escape pipe may be turned easily either in a perpendicular or horrizontal direction so as to’ throw water over an extent of forty-five degrees, and the range will be greatly increased by attaching a short hose to the nozzle. The object of the invention is to change the direction of a stream without trouble, and also ‘to do this water. The nozzle has been tested with fifty feet pressure, and to-morrow it will be tried at. Marselus &Maltman’s diggings with 180feet pressure and a three inch nozzle. . ~~. ge & narrow escape from death. The with the little one in-a child’s carriage.

Strange to say, the child did not receive a bruise. ills NEw Post Rovure.—A petition is in circulation in this city, asking for the establishment of & postal route from Nevada to Washington and Omega. Heretofore this has been a special route, and the mails have been carried as an accommodation. The towns of Wash. ington and Omega are important points, and the citizens ought to have regular mail communication with other parts of the State, ‘The petition was signed by all to. whom it was presented.
