Nevada County Leads the State in Renewed attention was given to copper mining in California about seven years ago, by the discovery of some extensive oute uppings in Nevada county, which led to the organization of the San Francisco Copper Company, ‘with a capital of 50,000 shares. The enterprise has’ according to the Bulletin been carefully. and economically conducted, and although the property’s improvements and running expenses have neéessaily been large, amounting, perhaps, to $275,000, stockholders have not been called upon to pay in over $45,000, the remainder coming out of the earnings. The business has . now reached a point where it is more than self-supporting, and the first dividend at the rate of 5c per share Was declared on the 17th, and will be paid on the 20th. Seven years: isa long time to wait for returns on capital, but the confidence of the promoters of this enterprise has been equal tuthe undertaking, and it is to be hoped that they will -be abundantly rewarded for creating a The San Francisco Copper Company has a large quantity of low grade copper ore. This is manufactured into copper cement. The process is slow, months being required in roasting and leeching, but the works are extensive, and the product of late has been about 40 tons copper cement per month. This cement is mostly shipped to the East by rail, It contains from 85 to 874 per cent, pure copper, and sells about 24 cents ¥ Ib less than refined bars. It is used for the manufacture of bluestone and for copper paint. No adequate attempt has been made by the Company to manuf-cture pig copper. The ore carries 4 great deal of sulphur, which may some day be utilized in the manufacture of sulphuric acid. Our local manufacturers of this article now day $30\per-ton for Japan su!phur for this purpose. It is thought sulphur could be made from the ores at a cost of $18 to $20 per ton, after the erection of suitable works. The ore also carries considerable iron, which is claimed to be the best in the world for the manufacture of Bessemer steel, At present the iron and sulphur count for nothing in the business of the Company, There are some other copper mines in the State, but only. one that is doing much. But it is believed that more deposits of copper ore exist here. Whether they will be developed very soon is another thing. Nothing can be successfu ly accomplished without smelting works for the manufacture of bar copper. If we had such an enterprise, there is no doubt it would be well supplied with ore, aud would pay fair interest on the outlay.

The following social items concerning people weH-known here are from Tuesday’s San Francisco Call: The engagement is announced of Mr. Clarence D. Vincent and Miss Grace L. Walrath, both of Oakland. The wedding will take place in a few days. The wedding of Dr. D. W. Beverton, the dentist, of Oakland, and Miss Eliza Glover, of Grass Valley, which occurred on Friday, at the Trinity Baptist Church, was a very quiet affair. A few intimate friends, with members of the families, assembled at the church, and, after the ceremony, repaired to the residence, No, 751 Grove street, where a reception was held. The parlors were handsomely decorated with flowers, ferns and similax, and a’ pleasant hour passed with congratulations and good wishes. The happy pair will reside in Oakland, where the honeymoon, will be passed. A number of invited — spent a very agreeable evening last Tuesdey ik the residence of Colonel and Mrs. Horace Fletcher, No. 2414 Washington street. It was a ‘‘commerce” —a species of entertainment always seasonable and growing in popularity. In this instance especially, the enjoyment was greatly enhanced by the unreserved flow of that entertaining spirit which so strongly characterizes the hostess. of the occasion, and which makes her a representative society lady. An elegant supper was served during the evening, and it was a late hour when the guests began reluctantly to retire. : 4 fw os Cows For Sale. ‘ton’sranch, =” £24-tf . Sten. Te , » COUNTY LICENSES. Why the Supreme Court's Deciaion Will Not Affect this County. The belief prevails to some extent that by the recent decision of the Supreme Court regarding the collec tion of county licenses imposed by the Legislature, Nevada county will lose “‘about $12,000 of annual revenue, and the School Fund, which gets most of the liquor license taxes, will be a heavy sufferer.” The TRaxscripr has found some good lawyers who do not agree with the conclusions quoted above. . In July, 1880, Senator George appeared before our Board of Supervisors and pointed out to them the uncertainty of the legislative act under. which the county was then collecting its licenses. He said the matter had been pretty thoroughly discussed at Sacramento, by the legislators, and many wise men entertained the belief that some day the Supreme Court would get its eyes open and rule as it just has. The Supervisors after carefully talking the matter over adopted an ordinance fixing the rates ofall kinds of licenses know as county licenses. The County Government Bill, providing for a similar action, was in existence then, but they made the ordinance under subdivision 26 of section 4,046 of the political code, which in enumerating the general powers of County Supervisors says they may “do and perform all other acts and things required by law not in this title enumerated, or which muy be necessary to the full discharge of the duties of the chief executive authority of the county government.” Now the Supreme Court’s late decision which has created such a flurry admits that the various counties may, under the above general law, impose taxes (which such licenses are held to mean) upon . themselves. _ Nev; right, we guess, and the license collector will probably keep to work as usual, ee Railroad Blockade. The Narrow Gauge Railroad from Colfax to this city has not experienced any obstacles from slides or snow blockades during thé present storm. It is different‘on the Central Pacific, however. Since Tuesday night a slide at Blue Canyon has interrupted travel. Three engines with snow-plows united their forces to clear the track Wednesday night, but all of them were thrown from the rails. The overland bound east was waiting at Colfax yesterday to have the way cleared so it might proceed. Transferring ><. the Railroad Tax Cases. Since the opinion rendered by Judge Waymire last Saturday, denying the injunction prayed for by the Central Pacific -Railroad Company against the Tax Collector of Sacramento county, the company has. caused all similar cases pending jn the Superior Court to be transferred to the United States Circuit Court.

Bioomrrecp, Cat., March 1 Eprror Transuripr—In alatsue you put forth a “Warning o Minérs” in which you use the :@m} tence, ‘‘We now again warn all miners that their property rights and industry are attacked.” I pause and ask, Does not this attack equally apply to the property rights and indastry of all within the boundaries of Nevada county—of all within the scope of the mineral belt, even the very birth-right of many young men? Does it any less effect the merchant, Selling his wares ; the mechanic, his skill; the lawyer, his unbounded impudence; the physician, his art of healing the sick; the !minister, in leading tlie blind and feediug off his flock, and all others down to the bootblack and Jimmy-from-town? Do the people of this—county ced further ‘‘warning”? Isit necessary to appeal to them to band together, to combat the influence of the AntiSlickens Associations, to protect property rights and industry, to aid and assist the Miners Assvciation, morally, financially—perhaps physically?

The overland bound east was waiting at Colfax yesterday to have the way cleared so it might proceed. Transferring ><. the Railroad Tax Cases. Since the opinion rendered by Judge Waymire last Saturday, denying the injunction prayed for by the Central Pacific -Railroad Company against the Tax Collector of Sacramento county, the company has. caused all similar cases pending jn the Superior Court to be transferred to the United States Circuit Court. Ss ieatiaieinaaneinininianesa oa A Card From D. Auerbach. Eprror Transcriptr—I,_ understand there was circulated in‘ this city recently a document reflecting upon myself and my method of transacting business, I hereby'request the possessor of said document (if it still be in existence) to bring it to the surface so I may have an opportunity _.to-clear~away the charges said to have been contained in it. I am not only asignorantof the origin of the fire in my store as any other reputable citizen, but was moreover out of the city when it occured, I would, had it been in my power, have gladly sacrificed any‘thing reasonable to have prevented the conflagration and its effects, as they have been exceedingly’ injurious to my general interests. As there are spme who feel an interest in my affairs, JF will state that I have settled with my creditors in a manner satisfactory to

them and, I hope, creditable to myself. The Important Store still lives, and_is offering unprecedented bargains o the public. . D. AUERBACH.

Why and How the Men of the Mining Sections Should Organize for Self Protection. N. Bioomrrecp, Cat., March 1 Eprror Transuripr—In alatsue you put forth a “Warning o Minérs” in which you use the :@m} tence, ‘‘We now again warn all miners that their property rights and industry are attacked.” I pause and ask, Does not this attack equally apply to the property rights and indastry of all within the boundaries of Nevada county—of all within the scope of the mineral belt, even the very birth-right of many young men? Does it any less effect the merchant, Selling his wares ; the mechanic, his skill; the lawyer, his unbounded impudence; the physician, his art of healing the sick; the !minister, in leading tlie blind and feediug off his flock, and all others down to the bootblack and Jimmy-from-town? Do the people of this—county ced further ‘‘warning”? Isit necessary to appeal to them to band together, to combat the influence of the AntiSlickens Associations, to protect property rights and industry, to aid and assist the Miners Assvciation, morally, financially—perhaps physically? Men of Nevada county, will you stand, indifferently, by and see your every interest jeopardized, perthe good fight, aud you reap the result without an effort on your part to bring about a prosperous end which we may all enjoy? I hope’ not. Ithink not. Let me add my small, voice to the good of the cause. Band together. Forma branch of the Miners Union in every town in the county. ‘‘Pass the ball along.” Doas we have done!
