Be Tue Bank or Nevana Cduxty.— The Bank of Nevada county. is a corporation, organized by citizens of this county, the stock being held by residents of different localities, which ‘is “likely to result in great good, by furnishing available capital for the benefit of the public, and also a safe place for . the deposit of money by the people, in either large or small sums. Many thousand dollars hiave been lost by be~ ing burieed or concealed about the cabins of our’ miners, andmany men will, we doubt not, take advantage of the new bank for the deposit of their money. The capital of this bank is $200,000, divided into 2,000 shares of $100. The business of the twocity banks, Geo. W. _ Kidd & Co. and H. Mackie & Co., will be transterred to the new bank, and al] that depositors have to dois to pro‘cure new books and their accounts will be transferred to the Bank of Nevada. The officers are as follows: President, H. Mackie ;*Cashier, R. W. Tally. The Trustees'for-the first three months are Jas. Whartenby, H. Mackie, Chas. Marsh, RK. W. Tully, W. L. Tisdale, John Cashin and J. W. Hinds. The banking hduse heretofore occupied by G. W. Kidd & Co., on Broad street, will be the place of business, and under the management of the gentlemen con, nected with the movement, it will be-a benefit tothe public and a convenience to oe of the community. Such a corporation las the advantage over strictly private banks, in the amount of capital.it can command, the larger business resulting from the interest taken by all stock holders and deposi-: tors, and the well known ability of the gentlemen composing the Board of Trustees. Fora long time banks on the same plan have been ih operation in Stockton, San Jose and other towns ofthe State, andthey have been of great advantage to the counties, in aid~ ing lofal industry and furnishing a sate and reliable depository for money, The bank of Nevada, combining as it does the business of two banking firms,starts with a prosperous business, which will no doubt largely increase as its useful. ness becomes known to the peopleof the town and county, Tue Omaha Herald gives seven reasons why farmers are healthier and happier than men of the professions, viz: . * 1. They work -tore, and develop all the leading muscles of the body. 2. They. take their exercise in the air,and breathe a greater amount of oxygen. 8. Their. food and drinks are com-. monly less adulterated, and far more sim ple. 4. They do not overwork their brain a8 much as industrious professiona] business men do. . 5. They take their sleep commonly during the hours of darkness, and do not try to tura night into day. 6. ‘They are net so ambitious, and do not wear themselves out so rapidly in the fierce contest of rivalry. 7. Their pleasures are simple and less exhausting. A Cuicaco clerk, lately married: had a passion for scribbling bits of Jove poetry on the brown paper within his reach while on duty at the store, One day @ highly excited individual rushed into ‘the office’ and showed to the heads of the firm a ditty that he had found wrapped upina bundle of goods bought by his wife. The outraged husband demanded satisfaction, and was with difficulty appeased. Sn ii ea Fer Rreokp,—Winatt; Superins tendent of the Eureka Mining Company, Grass Valley, yesterday’ filed the .

To do so would be superfluous, as yonr readers are probably well informed-already, some by actual observation, ‘others by reading the papers published here. By this time most-of the people here ‘have seen everything worthy of interest. and inspeétion, and tliey crowd the immense pavilion simply for the purpose of seeing who are there, and perhaps also to display their own charms and air their good clothes. Thousands go there andpromenade .around for hours, so that, everybody may ‘have a chance of seeing tthem—nobody is slighted. In going in they march up the grand and middle aisle—up past’the fountain they go, with a self-satisfied, complacent, smile upon their faces, bowing right and left to acquaintance& as they meet them, and vanish from sight in the art gallery. After “doing” this, stopping occasionally before a picture or piece of statuary, “just for the looks of the thing,” and giving utterance to their little ecstatic exclamations of, “How sweet,” “Isn't she beautiful,” etc., although they have seen the same pictures and said the same things twenty gallery. They saunter slowly along . this, scanning the faces of those sitting down, and jostling against those who, like themselves, are bent upon peram~ bulation. ‘fhe tour of the tower gals lery having been succsssfully accom — plished, to théiF infinite satisfaction and the great.edification of the “‘sitters,” the ascent of the second and last gals ley is made. The view from this gals lery is magnifice nt, and the beholder is lost in contemplating the “moving” views below. Thousands. of people, dressed in all the colors known to naw ture ard art,move in one restless throng below, while the lights throw a dazzling brilliancy over the fascinating scene, and you seem transported into some fairy land, from whose dizzy heights you look down upon earth. on the dwellings All this time the people move slowly on, some enjoying the beautiful panorama presented to the view, and others bent only upon looking in the faces of ‘those they pass, as they are borne along by the great surging sea of humanity. Down the stairs they go, and up the middle aisle again, some finding seats and others, like the wandering Jew, compelled to still go on—upon and down the aisles—until Willis’ Band furnishes most exquisite music to please the ears of the visitors. and my greatest delight is to get a seat in the upper gallery and listen to the sweet strains of music while. gazing upon the people below. : the hour for closing arrives. The following persons, residents, or former residents ot Nevada and Grass Valley, were observed by me at the duriog the past week: Chas. Marsh and wife, R. A, Diver and wife, Delos Calkins and wife, If: H. Haskins and wife,, Ed. Pratt, A. Goldsmith J. W. Hinds, Sam: Granger, E. D. Herrick, Mrs. G. H, Colby, W: H. Craw‘ord> Miss. Humphries, N. P. Brown and wife, B. F. Starr, Mrs. Thos. Findley. Warren Duty, Will Edgar, Chas. Bush, J. H. Stebbins. I can not close under the head of the “Fair” without alluding to Ed. Muller's display of silk and cocoons. It is by far the finest display on exhibition, and attracts: a‘ great deal of ‘attention. If Mr. Muller does' not geta premium Iam greathy mistaken. BOYS—A RETROSPKCT. A few nights since I stood’on the corner of Verona place on Third street and watched a number of boys. playings a-gameol “Sides.” I¢ isa game that I, when a boy, deliglited in, ena my mind involyntarily reverted to the past, How far had the lives of my friends and playfellows j ustified the’ hopes friends. How hopeful of ‘the future were ‘We in those happy e harfassing though’ of failfire @y clouded the brightdess of our Bpnshipy natiites, and we talked confidently of ‘what names we Would“dcheéive. for ourselves, what wealth store for us, when we shouid become men. ‘Tis true, we knew other men had failed, but_ we were ‘different frome has jt fared—with ue? What has be. come of the joyous, happy throng of boys that made the streets of Nevada ring. with their merry laughter and shouts. How many castles built in the air have vanished into nothingness, leaving. but.their memory behind? How ‘many hopes have been raised never to be realized? How many day dreams have faded away ~ before the stern realities of life? Few have gained wealth, fewer still have achieved greatness, and none have realized ‘hap~ piness. Some have gone on the down-~ ward path to ruin and degradation, and -some now sleep within the cold portals of the grave, at rest from the . cankering cares and ceaseleds toils and . troubles of life. And after all, what is all this struggling for wealth, for power, for greatness? Do we imagine that we will find happiness in the possession of either ar ull of these? Vain hope. They are but the shadow, not the substance. Happiness jis but: transitory, like the fitful gleams of sunshine, that are succeeded by clouds and darkness. There are moments of happiness, wken the. world seems a perfect. arcadia, but the besom of sors rowand disapointment follows in quick succession. How few enjoy wealth after gaining it? The desire for more . becomes a passion, and we have not time to enjoy that which we already possess. pect when we struggle for—it, but once gained we find it "Was but the smile of. a wanton. Life is like the dreary waste of a desert, occasionally relieved by ‘an oasis, a green spot ; and we trudge along its dusty track until we reach our journey’s end—the grave —and return to the dust’ from “whence we sprung.
