First, the Emma, being sold for the light sum of $5,000,000. This mine has seen many ups and downs, pinch ins and pinch outs— this last pinch being the last pinch of its existence. Last’ Summer one about twenty men, until about the last of January, when all but four or ‘. five were discharged. The ore givPi ing out was the cause.

But the eee day the Reporter's rejoicing was half of this mine sold for $750,000. Next in order comes the Flag Staff, which sold for $1,500,000. This mine has been jworked steadily for honest miners, who have’at last been: rewarded for. their-labor,and-can-re-} tire from the uncertainties of a miner’s life with a fair dividend. _turned to mourning, and it bewailed the departure of its prop. ‘The most remarkable feature of the article of the Reporter, after the repeal, is that stating that the Republicans proposed to get up a similar bill to make ». & “Radical sheet’’ the State paper. This. was merely to frighten the Dem~ocrats in the Senate to another re_ > gonsideration of the vote. We do not believe the Republicans have thought of any such measure, and if -itis introduced we believe it will be There is one thing certain, every Republican who votes for any such measure as the litigant bill or the State. paper — Jaw, will place himself in an unenviable position in the party, and he should be denounced as unfit to represent the people. The principle of legislation ‘which discriminates in favor of one concern in the same business, or which destroys free competition in trade, is odious to the people, and we are satisfied that there is no foundation for the statement of the Reporter that any such legislation is contemplated by Republicans. The Litigant and State paper bills are dead forever, and we do not believe similar measures will ever be enacted in the State of California. _Laprary Marrers.—The Grass Valley Republican says: Nevada City has one of the best public libraries in the State,-containing, we believe, between two and three thousand volumes from the best authors. Their library room is large, well furnished, ~ and can accommodate several hundred persons, and is frequently used for lectures, debates, and ‘other useFor the still further improvemént of their library, we learn that the members have made _ Strangements for a course of public “lectures upon interesting topics of the day. The people of Grass Val‘ley have made a worthy beginning in the matterof procuring-a public library, but on still remains to be = ~done before their efforts can be called a complete success. More books are wanted, ag well as a larger. and better furnished library room. The present accommodations are cramped, and-do not afford those facilities: for readings, heanyon. lectures, and various attractions that “are necessary to a well “regulated: library. We presume the thembers, and the Trustees, particularly, are doing the best they can with' the ited means at their command. at they need is more members, “more money, and a more general ' interest in the welfare of the library among our citizens. A good public library is one of the best antidotes fordissipation, idleness and vice that can be devised. Every person who contributes to its support does something that is of practical benefit to the community. ii. ‘ee at Vicrorta.—A cortespondent of the Philadelphia Press, writing from Victoria, V.I., says: ‘These are the best fish I ever tasted; fresh herring, which are so abundant that canoes with an instrument like a flax-tackle attached to a pole, impalng them on thesharp points. They canbe purchased at ‘‘two bits” the basketful, about seventy-five . cents a bushel. In delicacy they surpass, while they resemble, :the smelt and the whiting.

This mine, last September, was bonded for the sam of $150,000 for sixty days. Their time expired, when the purchasing party obtained-a renewal ‘of the bond for ninety days more, and in the mean time effected the sale. ‘The above mentioned sales were to English companies, ‘which argues very well for this district. The boys who have stakes can now return to their various homes and tell the stories \of their experience, trials ti bai cae , tudes while mining in wood. 2 IDES, » There have been several snow slides since my last letter. On the 5th inst. seven occurred, catching in the aggregate eleven men. © Three lost their lives in one slide, which occurred in Big Cottonwood. Eight persons were caught in slides on the Emma hill, in Little Cottonwood, but being seen were immediately exhumed and saved from a fearful death, 5 H. A. Fraser and myself were making our way from the Patsey mine to the blacksmith shop, distant about three hundred. yards, when we experienced the sensation of starting on a snow slide, which came near proving a longer and colder journey than we had a desire for so early in the morning. We started from the shop with each four drills on our shoulder, I taking the lead and Fraser about ten feetin the rear. We had advanced about three hundred feet, when I heard a slight “thud’’ and jar under our feet,but not knowing what it meant advanced about ten feet further, when the sound and jarjwas (repeated. With our hearts up in our throats, we began torealize our—situation. We were on a snow slide more than two hundred feet in length. With blanched faces we gazed at each other for a moment, and with trembling limbs beat a hasty retreat. On turning to retrace our steps we found the snow slide had carried us down the hill three feet. It then stopped, giving us time to gain, a sure footing on the hard snow before it was carried into the deep beneath. Taking.a survey of the whole thing we concluded we did not wish to be lionized as martyrs in a. sow slide, neither did we wish to be called two benmsita corpses in the snow. THE STORM =, The weather is still holding. « out at a fearful rate. Storm after storm, blow after blow, snow after snow,and) the end is not yet. There is no use to shovel, for in one hour every excavation you make is refilled. Sunshine is quite a rarity in Little Cottonwood, although I had the pleasure of enjoying it for about an hour, ~ the first time in six weeks. Notwithstanding the bad siinaiiae. work still goes on. Mines that have remained idle for the last two months are being opened with redoubled exertion. Everybody here anticipates a lively time this Spring, and pre. dict that anything i in the form of gray carbonate or chloride ore will sell at high figures, hence the early activity. Fritz Meister, formerly of WashWashington, in-your county, had a narrow escape from a blast in his. tunnel. . Not hearing the usual report, he concluded he would sharpen . the drills.
