The Festival given by the ladies of the Cengregational Church on Tuesday evening was a success in every particular. Charles Hegertyy of Moore’s Flat, is prospecting the Plumbago ledge at Minnesota and is taking out some good ore. This has always been considered a first-class mine. Superintendent Tiffany has sent out all the necessary blanks to the various School Trustees of the county to facilitate their business in making the regular annual reports. The ‘Unknown’ nine will play a game of baseball with the National Exchange club on Sunday next. Gravel is being taken out of the Nevada drift mine, at Chalk Bluff, which yields fifty cents to the pan, or about five dollars to the carload. The mine ia owned by the South Yuba Canal Company and they have a channel about.a mile long. Sometimes the Grass Valley Union arrives here about 24 hours after it is printed, and sometimes it don’t arrive at all at all. It never reaches here on the morning of its publication. What’s the matter? The present weather is beautiful in the extreme, and no one can fail to enjoy it. But it begins to look as though there might be too much of it. More rain is badly needed for the prosperity of the State. However we will not grumble at the clerk of the weather because we know it will do nu good. The best oftimber, first-rate water power, a dry climate and cheap living can all be found here. Such requisites are necessary for the success of a match factory.

The valley. crank, says: ‘‘Sam Inlow, our efficient ent Sheriff; is ‘not afraid to be seen on the streets’—nor is he ‘afraid of being kidnapped.’ The Nevada City people were talking about having him arrested for contempt, and all sorts of stuff, but Sam paidno attention to it, He wasn’t afraid of all the lawyers, judges and officers Nevada county could produce. He was backed up by the law in the case, and he held his own without a particle of fear of anyone.

E. Sprague, Montana. Witte Siphur Springs, Sociel and Other Notes About People Old PUNISHMENT. ra A Violation of Natural Laws the Result of ‘Human Affliction. We were asked the other day by an invalid why he was afflicted continually with bodily pain and bad health, while others who have lived more health. We do not know why we were asked the question. We are neither a physician, preacher or philesopher, Yet it seems the question is not a difficult one to answer, notwithstanding it has been a subject of inquiry since Job’s time. That good and patient man had his little physiical annoyances, while he lived an irreproachable _ moral life, and -was spiritually happy while physically miserable. Good people have won‘dered at what they call the mysterious ways of Providence, every since the creation, if our memory serves us right. They cannot understand many things that transpire in their. midst. It looks strange thatachurch is not saved while a conflagration sweeps away houses— of prostitution around it. Why the wicked prosper in wordly affairs while the righteous continue in poverty. ‘Why a pious man is allowed to go down with a leaky ship as readily as a profane man, Why amissionary, who ia deyoting his life to the spread of the gospel, will succumb to the malarious disease as soon as the heathen will. We will temporarily turn preacher or philosopher, for ‘such doubters “of Divine Providence. Man is governed by certain fixed unalterable laws. Each oue is separate and independent of the other in its operations. A violation of the physicallaw will result ‘in physical punishment. A violation of the moral law will result in moral punishment. And so it is with the spiritual law, the laws of man, whether of business, society or statute laws. A fire wi.l burn a righteous man, if he gets into it, as surely as it will a thief, because it is a natural law for fire to burn. If you don’t want to get scorched keep out of the fire. If a man is improvident and lazy he will not acquire money, no matter how fervently he miay pray for the short comings of his neighbors. An immoral man will lose his piece of mind, his self-respect, and the good will of his fellows; yet if he is industrious and economical he will succeed in business, and if observant of the laws of wealth he will be physically happy, because that is the reward for obeying such laws. Punishment will follow the breaking of physical law as surely as it will the breaking of spiritual law, and one is just as reprehensible as the other. The devout christian is just as much subject to colic, and just as liable to fail in business, as the sinner, if he does not follow the road indicated by natural guide board. A christian minister who is physically feeble from over indulgence, is just as loathsome a sight to a physician, asa depraved sinner and ruined ¢ebauchee is to the devout divines. Both have disubeyed the laws of nature, and are sinners in common. A man’s piety will not stop his toothache. To bea perfect man one must obey all the laws of his nature. Ignorance of those laws cannot be plead in bar of punishment. If three out of four laws are obeyed, there will be three rewards sbtained, but the fourth reward will be turned into punishment for disobedience. of the fourth law. The-creator does not interfere with the workings of his laws, no matter who suffers. ‘The punishment is attached asa penalty for reformatory purposes. If ourfriend will study up the laws of health he has violated, and try in the future to live in accordance with their dicates, he may recover what he so much covets —good health.’ The law of punishment for theft does not effect the honest man—but the thief, and after he is caught, he has no right to complain of the law. The plate will be passed on another occasion. Gold Flat. Gold Flat is a point outside the limits of town, and may be considered the principal suburbs, There is quite a town of residences out there, and’ each, home looks as though the people lived at home, that is to say, everything looks cozy and pleasant around there. It isa wonder to most people why_ the Flat was not selected for the town site, instead of the present one. It would have made a lovely spot for acity, The ground is level and productive, and no pleasanter spot can be found anywhere. A walk or drive in that direction is the pleasanteat of any one we know in this section. There are no mines being worked in that section, unless the Pittsburg be reckoned in on the Flat.

BLACK. > : Another Prominent Democratic Candidate for Vice President. — Among those prominently mentioned for the vice-presidency is Pension Commissioner Black. Should Cleveland obtain ' the presidential nomination, the end of the ticket would certainly be chosen from the west. Black has many elements in his favor. He, ff any one, could obtain-the soldier vote, and he is extremely popular in the west. General John Charles Black, the first Democratic Commissioner of Pensions, was born in Lewiston, Miss., January 27th, 1839. He is of Scotch-Irish descent, his covenanter ancestors having taken refuge in the north of Ireland from the Scottish persecutions, and thence later having emigrated to South Carolina in pre-revolutionary days. The South Carolina Black divided one branch of the family going to Virginia and another to Pennsylvania. His great great-grandfather Finlan, was a member of the Revolutionary Congress. His father was born in Pennsylvania, and became a Presbyterian minister, receiving the degree of Doctor of Divinity when not twenty-five years old, and dying when but thirty-seven years old, at which time he was pastor of the Fifth Presbyterian Church of Alleghany. Atthe time of his father’s death, General Black -was the oldest child of four surviving, he being but eight years of age. His mother was of the Culbethson family of Pennsylvania, though she was born, in Indiana, in Madison. Upon Mr. Black’s death the widow removed, in the fall of 1847, to Danville, Iil., where she has since resided. Left noother heritage than a goodname, young Black found himgelf full of earnest ambition to secure a collegiateeducation a8 a preparation for hislifelabor, and to provide for it he worked in his school vacations at teaming and other labor, until he became fitted for teaching, which he pursued for some months, and then, ‘having husbanded his slender earnings, he entered Wabash College, Crawfordaville, Ind. where he helped out his meagre resource by.such labor as he could secure out of his study hours. He was blessed with a splendid physique and indomitable energy. He was near the completion of his junior year in college when the news came by telegraph of the firing on Sumter. Within an hour thereafter he had enlisted asa private soldier in the Montgomery Guards, a company mustered a few days later at Indianapolis as Company I, Eleventh Indiana Zouaves, Colonel Lew Wallace, commanding. As a private in the “ Durable Whitewash. A whitewash that will last for years is said to be made as follows. Take one-half bushel of unslacked lime slack it with boiling hot water; cover it during the process to keep in the steam. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve or strainer, and add to ita peck of salt, previously dissolved in warm water, three pounds of ground rice, hoiled toathin paste, one-half pound of powdered Spanish whiting, and one pound of clean glue which has been previously dissolved by soaking it well, and then’ hang it over a slow fire in a small kettle within a larger ‘one filled with water, Add five gallons of hot water to the mixture, stir well, and let it stand for a few days covered from dust. It should be put on hot, and for this purpose it can be kept in a kettle ona portablefurnace. Colors may be mixed with the liquid, except that green should never be used, because _it_makes the whitewash crack and peel, and lime also destroys the color. This whitewash retains «its brilliancy for many years, and it will do for inside or outside walls. A square yard of the outside of a house will be covered by a pint of the mixture. .

Black, the General’s only brother, and about four years younger, who was at the time in the Freshman claus in the same*college. General Black was appointed sergeant-major of the Eleventh Indiana, and at the expiration of the enlistment immediately engaged in recruiting a company for the three years’ service, for that purpose returning to Illinois. The company was mustered as the left flank company of the Thirty-Seventh Ninois Volunteer Infantry, at Chicago in September, 1864, and Black was made the muster major of the regiment his brother succeeding to the captaincy of the company which he had helped to recruit and drill, General Black -remained in the service till the close of the war, being promoted to the lieutenant-colonelcy and colonelcy of his regiment, and winning his star ‘‘for gallant and meritorious service.” He was severely wounded in the right fore arm at Pea Ridge, Ark., March 7th, 1862. Only an exesication of the bone, whereby it was shortened about two and a halfinches, saved the left arm, while the right arm has never permanently healed, and in 1876 an exsication of the elbow was performed to save his life. The operation was successful, so that he retains considerable uso of the arm and hand, and writes well, though much writing wearies him. In politics General Black has been since the close of the war a consistent Democrat. He has lived in a Republican State and District, and has conseqently never received office, though he has twice run for Congress, once for LieutenantGovernor of the State, and in 1878 received the vote of his party in the Legislature for the United States Senate. In every camgaign he has ever made, his personal popularity has been such that.he had run far ahead of his ticket, he leading by nearly 2,000 votes in his race for Congress in the Fall of 1884, his Republican opponent Mr. Carmon, being elected by less than 500-votes in a district that has heretofore given _in 2,500 to 4,000 Republican majority. One thing that has always marked Gen. Black is his unselfish.devotion tg party duty. Withal General Black is ‘universally recognized, alike by party friends and foes, as a man of splendid character, stainless reputation, great energy and fixedness of purpose, and of a generous disposition, General Black is admittedly the leading political orator of-Illinois, and an advocate of the highest quality in his profession —the law. Large brained, quickwitted, with a piercing deep-blue eye, brown hair, a clear, strong voice, and much grace of gesture, few can equal, and none surpass him inthe forum or council. His record, alike in war and peace, is without a blemish. Not a Candidate. Geo. G. Gaylord wants it distinctly understood that he will not be a candidate for re-election to the office of. City Trustee. His business is such that it is impossible for him to accept the office. He desires to thank his many friends for the interest they have taken in him in that direction, and hopes to be able to repay them in asimilar manner should ever an op portunity p resent itself. pageant SH The ‘‘Pale Faces.’ This is the generic designation of the white 1ace bestowed by our coppercolored brother, the “‘noble savage.” The Caucasian, though many shades lighter, is not necessarily pallid. But when his cuticle has the parchmentcolored tint, and his cheeks the hollowness indicative of a want ef bodily stamina, he well deserves the appellation af ‘‘pale face.’’ These facial in+ dications should suggest a course of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, an acknowledged rehadilitator of a failing strength and renewer of bodily substance. It is derived exclusively from botanic sources—is pure and efficient. Its invigorating action is prompt, like be said of most tonics? Scarcely. Appetite, as well as the ability to satisfy it without subsequent discomfort, is-renewed by it, and it effectually tones the liver and bowels. It fortifies the system against malaria and rheumatism, and remedies nervousness and kidney complaints. Way will you cough when Shiloh’s Cure will give immediate relief.

Tremewan was knocked down and rolled a short distance. His right leg was broken in two or three places above the knee, and also bruised and cut below the knee. Other minor injuries were sustained. Since the North Star was reopened two men have been killed by being struck by cars and several others injured. Just below French Lead a catamount was killed by Wm. Dunston of , that neighborhood, The animal was treed by a dog, thus affording an opportunity to shoot it. Although evidently young, it was the largest ofits species ever killed in this vicinity, measuring three feet-from tip to tip and standing eighteen inches high. A Boston Ravine taxidermist will mount it. A letter received by O. W.

A Fair without races would bring no people here from abroad, andit would be about as ridiculous as Frederick Warde coming here with a big theatrical company and advertising to play “Lady of Lyons,” and leaving out poor Claude Melnotte. The Directors, in our judgment, had better not attempt to have a Fair this year if they intend toleave out racing. Calculation for Active Minds. . An eastern newspaper opens a vast field for speculation by publishing the estimate of some one that a piece of wood of the size of a month-old baby would be worn away one-half in six months if handled as much as the average baby is. It ventures the opinion that if the woman who handles the baby were made of wood she would be worn away altogether in six months. Following out this line of thought, says an exchange, it is easy to see that if an editor were made of wood, ‘in six months he would be siting on the base of his neck, and that a pretty girl similarly constructed could not be engaged to be married for a year without breaking in two at the waist.

The Festival given by the ladies of the Cengregational Church on Tuesday evening was a success in every particular. Charles Hegertyy of Moore’s Flat, is prospecting the Plumbago ledge at Minnesota and is taking out some good ore. This has always been considered a first-class mine. Superintendent Tiffany has sent out all the necessary blanks to the various School Trustees of the county to facilitate their business in making the regular annual reports. The ‘Unknown’ nine will play a game of baseball with the National Exchange club on Sunday next. Gravel is being taken out of the Nevada drift mine, at Chalk Bluff, which yields fifty cents to the pan, or about five dollars to the carload. The mine ia owned by the South Yuba Canal Company and they have a channel about.a mile long. Sometimes the Grass Valley Union arrives here about 24 hours after it is printed, and sometimes it don’t arrive at all at all. It never reaches here on the morning of its publication. What’s the matter? The present weather is beautiful in the extreme, and no one can fail to enjoy it. But it begins to look as though there might be too much of it. More rain is badly needed for the prosperity of the State. However we will not grumble at the clerk of the weather because we know it will do nu good. The best oftimber, first-rate water power, a dry climate and cheap living can all be found here. Such requisites are necessary for the success of a match factory.

E. Sprague, Montana. Witte Siphur Springs, Sociel and Other Notes About People Old PUNISHMENT. ra A Violation of Natural Laws the Result of ‘Human Affliction. We were asked the other day by an invalid why he was afflicted continually with bodily pain and bad health, while others who have lived more health. We do not know why we were asked the question. We are neither a physician, preacher or philesopher, Yet it seems the question is not a difficult one to answer, notwithstanding it has been a subject of inquiry since Job’s time. That good and patient man had his little physiical annoyances, while he lived an irreproachable _ moral life, and -was spiritually happy while physically miserable. Good people have won‘dered at what they call the mysterious ways of Providence, every since the creation, if our memory serves us right. They cannot understand many things that transpire in their. midst. It looks strange thatachurch is not saved while a conflagration sweeps away houses— of prostitution around it. Why the wicked prosper in wordly affairs while the righteous continue in poverty. ‘Why a pious man is allowed to go down with a leaky ship as readily as a profane man, Why amissionary, who ia deyoting his life to the spread of the gospel, will succumb to the malarious disease as soon as the heathen will. We will temporarily turn preacher or philosopher, for ‘such doubters “of Divine Providence. Man is governed by certain fixed unalterable laws. Each oue is separate and independent of the other in its operations. A violation of the physicallaw will result ‘in physical punishment. A violation of the moral law will result in moral punishment. And so it is with the spiritual law, the laws of man, whether of business, society or statute laws. A fire wi.l burn a righteous man, if he gets into it, as surely as it will a thief, because it is a natural law for fire to burn. If you don’t want to get scorched keep out of the fire. If a man is improvident and lazy he will not acquire money, no matter how fervently he miay pray for the short comings of his neighbors. An immoral man will lose his piece of mind, his self-respect, and the good will of his fellows; yet if he is industrious and economical he will succeed in business, and if observant of the laws of wealth he will be physically happy, because that is the reward for obeying such laws. Punishment will follow the breaking of physical law as surely as it will the breaking of spiritual law, and one is just as reprehensible as the other. The devout christian is just as much subject to colic, and just as liable to fail in business, as the sinner, if he does not follow the road indicated by natural guide board. A christian minister who is physically feeble from over indulgence, is just as loathsome a sight to a physician, asa depraved sinner and ruined ¢ebauchee is to the devout divines. Both have disubeyed the laws of nature, and are sinners in common. A man’s piety will not stop his toothache. To bea perfect man one must obey all the laws of his nature. Ignorance of those laws cannot be plead in bar of punishment. If three out of four laws are obeyed, there will be three rewards sbtained, but the fourth reward will be turned into punishment for disobedience. of the fourth law. The-creator does not interfere with the workings of his laws, no matter who suffers. ‘The punishment is attached asa penalty for reformatory purposes. If ourfriend will study up the laws of health he has violated, and try in the future to live in accordance with their dicates, he may recover what he so much covets —good health.’ The law of punishment for theft does not effect the honest man—but the thief, and after he is caught, he has no right to complain of the law.

BLACK. > : Another Prominent Democratic Candidate for Vice President. — Among those prominently mentioned for the vice-presidency is Pension Commissioner Black. Should Cleveland obtain ' the presidential nomination, the end of the ticket would certainly be chosen from the west. Black has many elements in his favor. He, ff any one, could obtain-the soldier vote, and he is extremely popular in the west. General John Charles Black, the first Democratic Commissioner of Pensions, was born in Lewiston, Miss., January 27th, 1839. He is of Scotch-Irish descent, his covenanter ancestors having taken refuge in the north of Ireland from the Scottish persecutions, and thence later having emigrated to South Carolina in pre-revolutionary days. The South Carolina Black divided one branch of the family going to Virginia and another to Pennsylvania. His great great-grandfather Finlan, was a member of the Revolutionary Congress. His father was born in Pennsylvania, and became a Presbyterian minister, receiving the degree of Doctor of Divinity when not twenty-five years old, and dying when but thirty-seven years old, at which time he was pastor of the Fifth Presbyterian Church of Alleghany. Atthe time of his father’s death, General Black -was the oldest child of four surviving, he being but eight years of age. His mother was of the Culbethson family of Pennsylvania, though she was born, in Indiana, in Madison. Upon Mr. Black’s death the widow removed, in the fall of 1847, to Danville, Iil., where she has since resided. Left noother heritage than a goodname, young Black found himgelf full of earnest ambition to secure a collegiateeducation a8 a preparation for hislifelabor, and to provide for it he worked in his school vacations at teaming and other labor, until he became fitted for teaching, which he pursued for some months, and then, ‘having husbanded his slender earnings, he entered Wabash College, Crawfordaville, Ind. where he helped out his meagre resource by.such labor as he could secure out of his study hours. He was blessed with a splendid physique and indomitable energy. He was near the completion of his junior year in college when the news

came by telegraph of the firing on Sumter. Within an hour thereafter he had enlisted asa private soldier in the Montgomery Guards, a company mustered a few days later at Indianapolis as Company I, Eleventh Indiana Zouaves, Colonel Lew Wallace, commanding. As a private in the “ Durable Whitewash. A whitewash that will last for years is said to be made as follows. Take one-half bushel of unslacked lime slack it with boiling hot water; cover it during the process to keep in the steam. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve or strainer, and add to ita peck of salt, previously dissolved in warm water, three pounds of ground rice, hoiled toathin paste, one-half pound of powdered Spanish whiting, and one pound of clean glue which has been previously dissolved by soaking it well, and then’ hang it over a slow fire in a small kettle within a larger ‘one filled with water, Add five gallons of hot water to the mixture, stir well, and let it stand for a few days covered from dust. It should be put on hot, and for this purpose it can be kept in a kettle ona portablefurnace. Colors may be mixed with the liquid, except that green should never be used, because _it_makes the whitewash crack and peel, and lime also destroys the color. This whitewash retains «its brilliancy for many years, and it will do for inside or outside walls. A square yard of the outside of a house will be covered by a pint of the mixture. .

Black, the General’s only brother, and about four years younger, who was at the time in the Freshman claus in the same*college. General Black was appointed sergeant-major of the Eleventh Indiana, and at the expiration of the enlistment immediately engaged in recruiting a company for the three years’ service, for that purpose returning to Illinois. The company was mustered as the left flank company of the Thirty-Seventh Ninois Volunteer Infantry, at Chicago in September, 1864, and Black was made the muster major of the regiment his brother succeeding to the captaincy of the company which he had helped to recruit and drill, General Black -remained in the service till the close of the war, being promoted to the lieutenant-colonelcy and colonelcy of his regiment, and winning his star ‘‘for gallant and meritorious service.” He was severely wounded in the right fore arm at Pea Ridge, Ark., March 7th, 1862. Only an exesication of the bone, whereby it was shortened about two and a halfinches, saved the left arm, while the right arm has never permanently healed, and in 1876 an exsication of the elbow was performed to save his life. The operation was successful, so that he retains considerable uso of the arm and hand, and writes well, though much writing wearies him. In politics General Black has been since the close of the war a consistent Democrat. He has lived in a Republican State and District, and has conseqently never received office, though he has twice run for Congress, once for LieutenantGovernor of the State, and in 1878 received the vote of his party in the Legislature for the United States Senate. In every camgaign he has ever made, his personal popularity has been such that.he had run far ahead of his ticket, he leading by nearly 2,000 votes in his race for Congress in the Fall of 1884, his Republican opponent Mr. Carmon, being elected by less than 500-votes in a district that has heretofore given _in 2,500 to 4,000 Republican majority. One thing that has always marked Gen. Black is his unselfish.devotion tg party duty. Withal General Black is ‘universally recognized, alike by party friends and foes, as a man of splendid character, stainless reputation, great energy and fixedness of purpose, and of a generous disposition, General Black is admittedly the leading political orator of-Illinois, and an advocate of the highest quality in his profession —the law. Large brained, quickwitted, with a piercing deep-blue eye, brown hair, a clear, strong voice, and much grace of gesture, few can equal, and none surpass him inthe forum or council. His record, alike in war and peace, is without a blemish. Not a Candidate. Geo. G. Gaylord wants it distinctly understood that he will not be a candidate for re-election to the office of. City Trustee. His business is such that it is impossible for him to accept the office. He desires to thank his many friends for the interest they have taken in him in that direction, and hopes to be able to repay them in asimilar manner should ever an op portunity p resent itself. pageant SH The ‘‘Pale Faces.’ This is the generic designation of the white 1ace bestowed by our coppercolored brother, the “‘noble savage.” The Caucasian, though many shades lighter, is not necessarily pallid. But when his cuticle has the parchmentcolored tint, and his cheeks the hollowness indicative of a want ef bodily stamina, he well deserves the appellation af ‘‘pale face.’’ These facial in+ dications should suggest a course of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, an acknowledged rehadilitator of a failing strength and renewer of bodily substance. It is derived exclusively from botanic sources—is pure and efficient. Its invigorating action is prompt, like be said of most tonics? Scarcely.

It fortifies the system against malaria and rheumatism, and remedies nervousness and kidney complaints. Way will you cough when Shiloh’s Cure will give immediate relief.

Davey is undergoing repairs, At three o’clock Tuesday at the same mine, John Tremewan, Sr., was struck by a car while walking up one of the car-tracks ‘in the shaft. Tremewan was knocked down and rolled a short distance. His right leg was broken in two or three places above the knee, and also bruised and cut below the knee. Other minor injuries were sustained. Since the North Star was reopened two men have been killed by being struck by cars and several others injured. Just below French Lead a catamount was killed by Wm. Dunston of , that neighborhood, The animal was treed by a dog, thus affording an opportunity to shoot it. Although evidently young, it was the largest ofits species ever killed in this vicinity, measuring three feet-from tip to tip and standing eighteen inches high. A Boston Ravine taxidermist will mount it. A letter received by O. W.

A Fair without races would bring no people here from abroad, andit would be about as ridiculous as Frederick Warde coming here with a big theatrical company and advertising to play “Lady of Lyons,” and leaving out poor Claude Melnotte. The Directors, in our judgment, had better not attempt to have a Fair this year if they intend toleave out racing. Calculation for Active Minds. . An eastern newspaper opens a vast field for speculation by publishing the estimate of some one that a piece of wood of the size of a month-old baby would be worn away one-half in six months if handled as much as the average baby is. It ventures the opinion that if the woman who handles the baby were made of wood she would be worn away altogether in six months. Following out this line of thought, says an exchange, it is easy to see that if an editor were made of wood, ‘in six months he would be siting on the base of his neck, and that a pretty girl similarly constructed could not be engaged to be married for a year without breaking in two at the waist.
