Mint Director “Burchard’s Review oF ts Mineral Resources, “[X0, vit.] There is but very little drift. mining in this county. The Debeo blue gravel mine, situated on the gravel ridge, and adjoining the North Bloomfleld mine.‘on the north und east, is quite a-noted mine. The gravel is hoisted by machinery through a shaft 466 feet in depth. Last May a tunnel was started in Humbng Creek at a point 4,500 feet from the old or No. 1 shaft. When completed, this tunnel -will drain-the lowest part of the mine’ yet worked. There are 2,000 feet run, all of which is through the North Bloomfield ground, and 800 feet more will connect it with shaft No: 2, which has been sunk on the line of the tunnel about 2,000 feet from shaft No. 1. This property has produced weil,. and will do so for many years to come, [Said tunnel is now completed.) The quartz-mining i in lustry of this county is being prosecuted with very satisfactory results. There are about thirty seven quartz mills, nearly all of which: -have;been 1m operation duririg the past year. The total amount of ore worked by these mills daring 1882 was 1,110,009 tons. Grass Valley has been the most importaut point in Nevada county for quartz mining for several years past, The Idaho, the principal mine at this place, is still producing large quantities of bollion. The mine is being worked toa great depth, consequently the. expenses are correspondingly greater. During the past year the company. made a contract with the Sonth Yuba Water ‘and Mining Company, wher.by the lat ter agreed ‘to furnish. water to the company for motive power on terms considered to he favorable to the interests of the Idaho Company. Iu making this change of power the trustees had in view -the increasiny quantity of wood consumed, and as greater depth is attained this increase of consumption would constantly keep going: on in the future, even at a greater rativ than it has in the past; and believing this chany e would meet the approval of the com pany, steps have already been taken to carry it into effect. Plans are aow being prepared and part of the iron for pipes is already ordered, and the work will be pushed ahead as ‘ast as possible, but as it is quite a heavy job it will be well along in the spring before it is completed. Athe work is now all below the 1,090‘oot level, and the ore helow that yoint has to be raised by compress. ed air to that station, it will be necsssary to add anether compressor to the works before the close of the year 1883, The quality of the ore has fallen considerably below what it was last year, and has produced a correspouding shrinkage in dividends; and from the present appearance of the mine, aopes cannot he entertained of any ‘nerease of dividends for the ensuing year oyer that of the year just ¢losed, ' Within the past. year the 1,100 drift has been extended to the distance of 1,044 feet from the incline. but the last 100 feet have been through barren ground, and. it may be considered that the pay chute 1s exhausted in this level, and the »acks above this point are also workedout. The 1,20): drift is in 860 feet from the incline. This has been quite a poor drift most all: the distance. The stopes above this are also nite poor, but some improvement is expected, as good ore was found in the 1,100 drift ahead of the present stopes. The 1,200 stopes are worked through to the 1,100 level drift for a distance of 700 feet from the incline. The 1,300 level drift is in 422 feet from the incline, The ledye in this drift will average 2} feet in thickness and of feir quality. The ore in the stepes above the drift is also of about an average quality. Che incline is down 221 feet below the 1,300 level, or a vertical depth from the surface of about 1,491 feet. They are now opening, out the stition for the 1,400 drift. There is a small ledge in the incline, which shows gold occasionally, but there is. not much profit in it at present. Daring the year the company worked 27,539 tons of ore, which gave a yield of — 31,6054 oz of bullion.. . $554,293 23 5 1-10 tons of suip’ts.. 4,713 26 From tail’g’s & slime.. 8,516 53 Specimens. ...0... 56 00 From workin, slime sold. 103 50 $ 568,572 52 The shat shows an average yield of $20.64 per ton. The cost of mining and milling was $9.83 per ton. paid fourteen dividends, amounting to $262,500 and. carried over: a-sulplua ot $35,000. The dividends of this mine for the last fourteen years aggregate the maguiticent ‘sum “of $3,365,050. This-has been the most productive quartz mine in the county, and to all appearance will con. tinue to. produce for maty years te}. come.

Attest: F. G. Beatty, Clerk. By W. D. Harris, Deputy. ee Death of a Pioneer. Jobn K. Sale, a resident of Nevada county as early as 1850, died in the Indian Territory on the 13th instant. He was collector of Foreign Miners’ licenses under several Sheriffs during the-fifties. His last public position in Nevada county was that of Marshal of Grass Valley about 1867. The Union says : A few yeare after that he removed to the State of Nevada, where. he remained unti! about a year ago, when he returned co Grass Valley, stopping in the vi cinity several months, and thei, after a brief stay at San Francisco, went to the Indian Territory, where he bad relatives residing. So far as Known none of his acquaintances had heard from him since going to the ferritory, and -no particulars have been learned concerning bis sickness and death, John Kimbrough Sale was known to all th: old residents of the county, and for many years was a marked local character, as he was one of those men who. saw so much in life to extract pleas:r¢g from, that he went in fer his full share, Although not edacated, he was a ‘man of no mean ability, and on occasion~ dould wield apen with incisive force. Like many of the pioneers of. the flush tines he was liberal ‘and freebanded, and met the same. reverses that came-to many of them, but with the faith of the veteran prospector looked for a “big strike” which never came, and finally, like many of the oli-timers, has lain down to rest withort accomplishing the Hopes and rxpectations of, hia life. Mr. Sale was-anative of Virginia, and leaves a wife and one child.

Preston, President of the Lecture Bureau, was chairman. The first number was a piatiodolo by Prof. Maller, the wellknown composer and teacher of masic. He performed ‘The Minuet” iu a@ manner that evoked hearty and long continued demonstrations of approval, Mrs, Dainty was then introduced and soon succeeded in winnidg the hearts of her auditors, She is charming inmanner, pretty of face, and her graceful little form is elegantly attired, _ Her voice is pleasing and natural, aud, like her facial expression, under the most perfect control. She depicts the various passions and emotions in a4 manner strictly true to life, merging herself into the part she plays with an effect that i+ within the appreciation of the dullest or least cultured comprehension, jo hamorous selections, such as ‘‘A Naughty Little Girl’s View of Life” and ‘*The Model Sermon,” while in combinations of the descriptive ‘and pathetic, like ‘Kentucky Belle,” she bas but few peers. When she had read these three selections, and unmistakably captured the audience, Miss Ella Cowdery, accompanied on the piano by Prof.’Muller, rendered a vocal solo with such sweetness and finish that she received an encore, Mrs. Dainty read ‘*Poor Little Joe,” *‘How the Old Horse won the Bet,” and ‘‘The Jiners,” following which Mrs, ‘F. G. Beatty performed in her usual artistic manner a piano solo which so pl d the auili that they insisted upon her favoring them with anotker selection. In conclusion Mrs, Dainty fead ‘‘Her Letter,” ‘‘How He saved St. Michaels” and “The Brakeman at Charch.” The audience was larger than attended the Bureau’s eutertainments last week,and yet there were’ very many vacant seats. When the people of Nevada C ty once thorough'y understand the merits of the pertormances furnished under the auspices of this organization, we do nut believe there willbe muvh trouble in filing the Theatre.

By this time the fire had got uuder such headway that th: whole new works were doomed to destruction, ‘There were four loaded cars standing alungside the bunkers, ‘he section men got to the works iv time to save three of them, but owing to the falling timbers, one could not be got out, and was burned. The loss-wiil be heavy to the owners, who had just got the mine in shape tomake it pay. Mr, Landis, the principal owner and manager, has the sympathy of the entire community. All openings to the mine are being closed up.

How to Promote Personal Power— A New Radical Reformer. © *‘There 1s no provision in the Divine economy for polical bosses !” With a bang of his fist, and in the voice of aman who had made up his mind on the subject, Rev. James Chambers, of Calvary Presbyterian Chatch, Harlem, revently opened his serman with this announcement. He was right. ‘The only boss authorized by the Book is mentioned in the-e words : ‘tHe who ruleth his own spirit ia greater than’ he who aketh a city.” (Commonly, the -better side of men is subject to the despotism of the worse side, Bad passions, bad humors, mean jva ousies and base revenges are ail bosses, One of the worst of bosses is bile. What is most lepressify, in philosophical or theelogical thevght is due to it. Old General Debility is another tyrannical boss. He lushes men who are naturally good uutil they become unvaturally bad or miserably weak. Concerning his deliveranee from this honday~, Rev. S, P. Lewis, pasvor of the 8th street Baptist Church. 3t.

How to Hang a Hammock, As long as people will} sist upon encouraging the growth of oumps by using hammock the best possible a ivantage. are some simple rules to follow: hammock should be bung so that th end where the head is to rest will be several inches higher than the fuot. A vord somewhat stouter than the 1ammock-twine passed lensthwise through the meshes at the border, and torough the rings, so that it can be leagthened or shortened as requir-d, will make it possible to sit comfortably across the hammock, with he feet hanging or restingon the ground, To yet into the hammock, raise its opposite side with one hand, ind sit on the gatherered meshes f the near edge before reclining. Chis renders it impossible to fall over and out of the hammock, as is often lone by the inexperienced, Reverse this process in ‘‘dismounting.” It is more comfortable to lie diagonally scross the hammock than to stretel: one’s self in it lengthwise, for, in the atter case, one-must accommodate himself to the curvea of the ham-. inock, while in tHeformer the elassicity of the net comes into play, avd accommodates itself tu the shape that cests upon it. SS Se ee No Whiskey! Brown’s Iron Bitters is one of the very few tonic medicines that are not composed mostly of alcohol or whiskey, thus becoming a fruitful source of intemperance by promoting a desire for rum. Brown’s Iron: Bitters is. guaranteed to be a nonintoxicating stimulant, and it will, in nearly every case, take the place of all liquor, and at the same time absolutely kill the desire for whiskey and other intoxicating beverages. Rev. G. W. Rick, editor of . the American Christian Rewiew, says of Brown’s Iron Bitters: Cin., O., Nov. 16, 1831. Gents :—The foolish wast ing of vital force in business, pleasure, and vicious indulgence of our people; makes your Cobia ge a necessity ; and if applied, will save hundreds who rescrt to saloons for temporary recuperation. Brown’s Iron Bitters has been thoroughly tested for dyspepsia, indigestion, biliousness, weakness, debility, overwork, rheumatism, neuralgia, consumption, liver complaints, kidney troubles, &c., and it never fails to render gee and permanent relief.
