Personal and Social Items Gleaned Here and There. Mr. and Mrs, G. G, Gaylord take their departure the latter part of this week for a visit to their former home in Illinois, 2 : M. Rosenberg of the Palace Dry Goods Store left Sunday for Berlin. He will retura next autumn, Mr. Rosenberg will pay his respects to Minister Sergent while “Unter den Linden.” Tidings: Mr. Louis Chalmers of Silver Mountain, Alpine county, is ‘ooking at the mines of . Nevada county. Mr: Chalmers is one of the oldest and best miners in the State. He is-in gcod hands, Captain. James ——~-Benalleckbeing the entertainer of the visitor from Alpine county, “Frank A. Wise came down on snow-shoes Snnday from.the Centennial mine in Washington township. He reports the mine to be in & very encourage‘ng condition, and will probably return there to-day. Mr. Bishop is still in the City and will not go up till thé snow ig off sufficiently so he can ride on a stage, Mrs, John Spaulding and family have removed from Dutch Flat to Siegler Springs, Lake county. The Seigler Springs property belongs to Mr. Spaulding and as it became nec. essary to have some one to look after it, he.concluded to remove his family there to permanently, reside. Mr. Spaulding himself will retain his position as Superintendent of the Hayward claims at You Bet and the Yuba Ditch property. A Pioneer “‘Across the River.” Charles Woolsen Smith, or as he was familiarly called, ‘Charlie’ Smith, one of Grass Valley’s oldest residents, died at that place on Sunday evening. Mr. Smith had been ill for about a year, sometimes at death’s door and then improving. A few weeks ago he got much better and hopes were entertained that he would recover, but notwithstanding he had the best medical attendance, and everything was done to build up his shattered constitution, a reaction took place which terminated in his death. Charlie was a whole-souled man, generous to a fault, and leaves not only a loving family to. mourn his loss, but a long Jist of acquaintances who were firmly attached to him. The funeral wil! take place on Wednesday, (to-morrow) under the auspices of the Masonic fraternity: to which he belonged. ‘Nevada Commandery, No. 6, Knights Templar, will act as escort, The Feast of Passover. The Hebrew festival of Pesach or passover-is-in--progress~this week, end will continue for seven days This holiday commemorates the 0ccasion of the preservation of the first born children of the Isrealites from the plague at the time they were held in bondage in Egypt. The tradition, as narrated in the Talmud—that volume of Rabbinical lore—is that. the Angel of the Lord sprinkeled the doors of the Hebrews with the blood of a sacred lamb, That the inmates of 3 the houses thus marked were saved from the blight’'which attacked the Egyptians. The anniversary is also observed by the eating of unleavened bread in the shape of huge diske called matzos. These are substituted for bread during the entire holidays. The two first days are observed with greater respect by the Jews then any of the others, and it is presumed that the feast will be observed by them for all time, ‘ C BRIEF MENTION. etc., $405.30. $44.18. gages, $115. $24.75. $10. gent sick (at Hospital &c, by Dr, Hunt) $2,085.72, -oners, $15. &c., $20, for Court House, $61.75. for Hospital, $22.50.

In Liceaion Meck anics’ Lien Law. In Omsby vs. the Alpha Gold Mining Co., the Superior Court on yesterday was occupied in heavy argument on demurrers to the’ complaints. The plaintiff and iutervenors pérformed labor and ‘furnished materials to be used in the mine, between two dates set forth in their pleadings, ‘at various times, but all under) one general contract. The defendent. claims that—each day’s labor and installment of materials was a distinct contract. and performance that required alien to be filed for each. he issue involved is very important to miners and laborers whose wages are estimated atso much per day, because if the ground taken by the defendant is correct, it. will practically nullify the] lawfas tothem, Counselor Burrous for the plaintiff, m his argument drew an {analogy between the poor wretches who were executed in old times by being built up in the
walls of buildings, and the laborers and miners of to-day who ‘*builtup in the edifices’ and mines on. which they labored the richest portions of their own brawa}end ‘blood and bran and nerve.” * Death of Mrs. Kelly. Mrs. Catherine Kelly died on Saturday last at: the family residence, at the Pennsylvania mine in this city. Deceased was bori in Ireland in 1840, and when 16 years of age immigrated to the United States. She lived in New York City until 1861, when she came to California and ‘settled in Benecia, “where she married Mr Kelly in 1862. During that year they removed to Virginia City, and resided there until 1865, when they came to Nevada City where they have since resided. Mrs. Kelly was sick about five weeks, and though her sufferings were severe, she bore them with fortitude, until released by death. She was an exemplary woman in all her ways, and commanded the! esteem and respect of all who knew her.
