The proprietor was over at the county seat trying to gather up enough of the remuants of the once great but now moss-covered: ’ Democratic party to make a corpse from for next election, ‘and Rufus Shoemaker was ‘‘subbing” for him in the matter of writiag upice cream saloons, fruit crops, stray cattle, high _ corn and other subjects so dear to the heart of the inspired ‘frooral” editor. There was not an announcement in the paper to such an effect, but every one could tell at a glimpse that those -graceful and wavy specimens of rhetoric that are so suggestive Of Nasby from the ‘‘Corners,”” were from no p2n but thatof the Bank Commissioners’, Ex-Clerk. Shoemaker can no more keep out of a print-shop than can gur friend Stidger at San Juan. o> Truckee Bepublicun Sold. B.

McGlashan the Truckee Semi-weekly Republican, Since *‘Mac” has had charge of the Re »ublican it has besn one of the best local papers in the State so far as its general contents were concerned, and it is said to have also been a money-making institution. We shall look fr our friend Watson to keep up the standard of excel+4 lence, and do not haVe any fear of . being disappointed. The Truckee folks will find him an outspoken and intelligent journalist, and a genial gentleman, oe — New Mivuing Company. The Manzanita Gravel “Company, whose property is located _at-this city, has been organized under the aws of the State of New York, with “a capital or $250, 000° The ‘following officers have been elected: President, Gen.

During the ‘progress of the entertaimment C: W_. Cross, Esq., delivered a neat address wherein he apologized on_behalf of _ his brothers for the small showinz of uniforms, there being. less than a seore.— It had been anticipated that as many more, ordered from the Bast several weeks since, would have arrived early in the month, but owing to some cause they had been delayed on the route. This wnfortunate circumstance of courge prevented the drill being carried out. The speaker went on to explain the'orgin and object of the order. Damon and Pythias, (the latter its patron saint) two Syracusans, who were discip es of !'ythagoras, became renowned for their frindship toeach other. Pythias was condemned to death by Dionysius, aevtel tyrant, who kept Damon as hostage while the former went home to settle hic afiairs and bid his wife and ebildven farewell. Pythias returned punctually, to the surprize of Dionysus, who pardoned him and desired to become a partner in their friendship. . 1t was such. friendship as this that the members _of the order in question emulate, com-cluded Mr. Crossamid much applause. Shortly before twelve o'clock the party came te an end. In all respects it was one of the most successful ever given in the city. There were enough present to comprise a scene of life, but not to fill the floor te an uncomfortable extent. The music was perfect, the various cident connected with the occasion refl cted great credit on the young but healthy organization that gave it. ‘The Party with the Bugle. Ata little gathering recently the conversation turned upon the relative merits of our various State military organizations’ ‘*The Camptonville Company” said one gushing damsel, ‘‘are lovely, but really, the tout ensembe of the Nevada Light Guard is just irresistible!” Spilker happened to be present and he lookeda little bewildered. ‘fhe toot— you mean,” he hesitatingly ‘commenced, “that is—vh, I see, now you mean when the party. high-toned with the silver bugle calls ‘ein together; indeed, tha: is charming. Toot assemble, yes, yes.” And everybody . laughed to such an extent that the idea dawned-upou Spilker that. he had blundered somewhere. . Consequently he spent ali bis leisure time for the next week poring over a beok of military tactics in connection with a French dictionary: Sudden Death ef John DZ James. ‘John D.

Some dozen of birds took part in-the fight, half of which were laid dead on the field. The editor of the Union was elected: umpire for the occasion, but it soon appearing that bis ideas of fair-play were distorted he was speedi.y ‘ bounced out” of the ring. The first fight was brief and tragic, the Irish bird. tyansfixing his adversary through the neck close to the head, killing him instantly. The ‘other contests were less brief but not less sanguinery. The result was ‘a drawn battle, each side killing an equal number of birds. Considerable money changet om the result, and . true Derby-like enthusiasm was . manifested by the spectators. _—_o oe — Rullroad Business. . The Narrow Guage railroad company is up to its eyes in business. There are thirteem arrivals and departures of traims every twenty-four hours at this end of the rout. Freight is comimg here and to Grass Valley in large quantities. Passenger travel is conetantly increasing. Each day three mails come and ‘go. A'l these facts serve to connect Nevada City more closely with the outer world than has eves before during her history been theease. We feel now as though we lived next door to San Francisco. Itseems as theugh our wives could put their babies to sleep, run over and have a good time swapping lies with the fair ones at the Bay, and be home agais by the time the youngsters weve awake. For instance, a gentleman left here Friday afternoon, weat to Wo Fran cisco, transacted his business, and arrived here Sunday morning.

The proprietor was over at the county seat trying to gather up enough of the remuants of the once great but now moss-covered: ’ Democratic party to make a corpse from for next election, ‘and Rufus Shoemaker was ‘‘subbing” for him in the matter of writiag upice cream saloons, fruit crops, stray cattle, high _ corn and other subjects so dear to the heart of the inspired ‘frooral” editor. There was not an announcement in the paper to such an effect, but every one could tell at a glimpse that those -graceful and wavy specimens of rhetoric that are so suggestive Of Nasby from the ‘‘Corners,”” were from no p2n but thatof the Bank Commissioners’, Ex-Clerk. Shoemaker can no more keep out of a print-shop than can gur friend Stidger at San Juan. o> Truckee Bepublicun Sold. B.

During the ‘progress of the entertaimment C: W_. Cross, Esq., delivered a neat address wherein he apologized on_behalf of _ his brothers for the small showinz of uniforms, there being. less than a seore.— It had been anticipated that as many more, ordered from the Bast several weeks since, would have arrived early in the month, but owing to some cause they had been delayed on the route. This wnfortunate circumstance of courge prevented the drill being carried out. The speaker went on to explain the'orgin and object of the order. Damon and Pythias, (the latter its patron saint) two Syracusans, who were discip es of !'ythagoras, became renowned for their frindship toeach other. Pythias was condemned to death by Dionysius, aevtel tyrant, who kept Damon as hostage while the former went home to settle hic afiairs and bid his wife and ebildven farewell. Pythias returned punctually, to the surprize of Dionysus, who pardoned him and desired to become a partner in their friendship. . 1t was such. friendship as this that the members _of the order in question emulate, com-cluded Mr. Crossamid much applause. Shortly before twelve o'clock the party came te an end. In all respects it was one of the most successful ever given in the city. There were enough present to comprise a scene of life, but not to fill the floor te an uncomfortable extent. The music was perfect, the various cident connected with the occasion refl cted great credit on the young but healthy organization that gave it. ‘The Party with the Bugle.

Some dozen of birds took part in-the fight, half of which were laid dead on the field. The editor of the Union was elected: umpire for the occasion, but it soon appearing that bis ideas of fair-play were distorted he was speedi.y ‘ bounced out” of the ring. The first fight was brief and tragic, the Irish bird. tyansfixing his adversary through the neck close to the head, killing him instantly. The ‘other contests were less brief but not less sanguinery. The result was ‘a drawn battle, each side killing an equal number of birds. Considerable money changet om the result, and . true Derby-like enthusiasm was . manifested by the spectators. _—_o oe — Rullroad Business. .
