A Grass VALLEY min when in Nevada City the other evening found on the street a fine gold bracelet which the owner can recover by calling at the Union office. A Hoa weighing 630 pounds, and said to be the largest ever ‘raised in this section, wason the hooks yesat Gumbert & Locke’s meat market. _ oO? Miss ANxnig Srencern of Grass Valley is visiting Mrs, J. V. Hunter at this city. ‘ ‘ a a Pain inan Amputated Arm. a Jobo Guscetti, the boy who was accidently shot while out hunting ‘several weeks ago, and had to submit to his injured arm being amputated at the shoulder, has been getting slong remarkably well under skillful treatment. About ten days ago he began to complain of intense pain in the arm that was cut off, and the next day the box in which it had been buried was dug up and openéd, when it wae discovered that the arm had been bent nearly double in putting it into the box. It wag. straightened and reburied, whereupon the boy ssid the pain had ceased. Alittle later he declared that one of the fingers in the ground was hurting him. Again the box was exhumed. The finger was seen to be out of shape, and restored to a natural position, and since then the lad has suffered no more. A gentleman says this reminds him of a man who lost a leg in the army.Hight or ten days after it was cut off he said that the leg was being burned, and appeared to be suffering intense agony. Inquiry being made next day it was learned that at the time ha was suffering so much the leg, with a quantity of other amputated limbs from the hospital, had been by order. of the authorities burned. Suspension Bridge, The Board of City Trustees met Monday evening to open bids for making certain repairs to the Suspension Bridge, including the replacing of a:main sill and a sub-sill and the splicing of one of the 20x20 standards, Trustees Abbott and Locklin were not present and the opening of the bids was postponed till last evening. H. Krusi, engineer for the San Francisco Bridge Company, was present, and by request of the Board made a statement as to the result of an examination of the structure that he had made during the day. He found that it was not sufficiently braced to guard against vertical undulations and recommended the building ef stiffenmg trusses to serve alao as hand rails in place of the present dilapidated ones. He was instructed to present at last night’s meeting his suggestions on the subject in the form of specifications and a rough estimate of the costof the work necessary to render the bridge absolutely safe, ~ > oe Disturbed the Peace. Monday afternoon Dennis O'Neill went to the boarding house of Kit Temby on upper Pine street and told Mra. Temby he wanted to see one of the inmates who owed him some money. He went inside and loitered arvund awhile, and Mrs. Temby says he went into her room while she was in auother part of the building. After awhile, and before he left, she missed a purse containing $2.50 in money and two gold rings. She accused him of stealing it, and he being drunk began abusing her with bad language. She sent for Marshal Tompkins and officer Scott who went up and arrested him. The missing purse was found on the floor behind a door. O'Neill was taken before Justice Blakey, pleaded guilty to disturbing the peace, and paid a fine of $10. Ready for Robbers. Last Saturday was pay-day at the Providence mine, but none of the miners were ‘‘stood up’’ on their way home ashas been the case 20 frequently in times past. The reason ‘that they were not confronted by the masked gentry, was-probably because the miners now come in equads and armed to the teeth when they have any coin to bring along. They would make it pretty hot for the party whe tried any “hands up” business on them. Mining Notes.

A Good Republican Meeting at Graniteville. GRaNITEVILLE, Oct. 10th, 1884. Epiror Transcript: — To-day Graniteville presents a livelier appearance than. it has heretofore since thy arrival here on August 18, The pohtical breeze is blowing this way, and as the woods are full of ’em, sois this town full ef Blaine and Logan men. About four o’clock the Republican nominees of the county arrived. Their appearance was a signal for cheers for Blaine and Logan. It seemed to give the town new life, and to see the national colors flying from Rohrig’s Hall, which had been put in appropriate condition by the gallant Republicans of the town, goes to prove that all the Repnblicans are not gone yet, although since the November electiun, ’82, some 14 have gone away, as the mining depression has caused a good many to seek a livelihood in other quarters, At 8 Pp, M, the nominees met at the Hall where a large assemblage had congregated to listen toa talk over the issues of the campaign. In looking through the audience it became evident thata goodly number of Dem. ocrats were there, After the election of J. Kelleras Chairman and Wm. Shand .as Secretary, an invitation was extended toany and all representatives of the press to take seats with the Secretary. J. Shoemaker of the Grass Valley Tidings responded, After a few preliminary remarks by Mr. Keller, he introduced Hon. W. D. Long who spoke for quite a length of time on the political issues of the day. Among other things he spoke of the change and depression of business in this town since 1852 when he ran an express on the ridge. When Mr. Long ceased speaking the audience burst into a storm of cheering which lasted for-several minutes. George Lord, candidate for Sheriff, was called next and made a few remarks which were very appropriate for the occasion, G. E. Robinson was the next to entertain the audience for a few minutes.

Opinions of Leading Journals in the East Upon the Last Batch. New York Mail: Rather a long delay about obeying acall of ‘‘duty.” Perhaps Mr. Malligan thought some one would ‘‘see him” before this. New York Tribune: Malice has ever reached itself at last. The new letters published for the purpose of injuring Mr. Blaine go far to vindicate him. Detroit: Post: They are the business letters which might be expected to pass between an unsuspecting man of good character and two sharpers who were leagued to fleece him, Indiauapolis Times: There is no taint of corruption—nothing that any ordinary business man might not have engaged in. The man who sees any corruption in them looks through his own spectaclee. Cincinnati Times-Star: If Mr. Blaine’s private correspondence of ten or fifteen years ago is comforting to his enemies, let them revel in the letters while other people devote themselves to live issues. This election will turn on the great questions of to-day. Philadelphia News: A careful reading of them will fail to convince any intelilgent and fair-minded man of anything except that Mr. Blaine was @ pecuniary victim in the speculation, and that Fisher is an unprincipled betrayer of private cenfidence. Minneapolis Tribune:. The more assiduously these new letters, are moralized upon by the Schurzs, and Horace Whites, and Curtises, and Godkins, the larger. the Republican majority in Ohio will be. The people of this country got tired of Mulligan and his letters in 1876. Quincy (Ill) Whig: Mr. Blaine has never concesled any of his ree: ord in this matter. Demoorats may make the most of their alleged expose, The simple fact is, Mr. Blaine has been a financial sufferer by his railroad investment, and in it he has never done anything to bring dishonor upon himself. Madison (Wis.) Journal: The publication in Boston of another batch of the Blaine-Fisher-Mulligan letters'is proving very satisfactory to Republicans, as they thoroughly, unequivocally explain all that have preceded them, and plainly show Mr. Blaine’s motives to have been of the purest character. Pittsburg Chronicle: If: the additional letters contained anything essentially different from the others there would be some reason in giving them space due to other news, but as they do not, to print them would be a waste to the papers doing it and a bore to the readers. Th® Malligan letters are no longer an issue in the campaign. New York Commercial: If such floods of vituperative verbiage had not been poured forth upon the ‘Mulligan letters” that have gone before, the second edition, which was published all over the country this ᠀洀漀爀渀椀渀最Ⰰ and which comprises twenty other missives of similar kidney, might produce more effect than they are now likely to do. Milwaukee Sentinel: The original letters were selected with shrewd choice; by themselves they had a worse look than when these are added; and the malignants who have egged on Fisher and Mulligan ‘to violate the rule which forbids any gentleman to publish a private letter without the writer’s consent will gain nothing by the publication. St. Paul Pioneer Press: The only effect we can now foresee as likely to follow the publication of this supplement to the Mulligan letters is to add new pains to the sensible fatigue which the public has long been suffering with by being compelled to read the daily chapters of interminable dullness on the everlasting subject of the Mulligan letters. Winona (Minn.) Republican: The independent Pharisees of Boston, who appear to have gone into the smelling business with a readiness which shows their innate taste and capacity for deeds of meaness, have secured the publication of a dozen additional letters comprising the correspondence, years ago, between Mr. Blaine and Warren Fisher. Albany Journal: Mr. Warren Fisher, Jr.,and Mr. James Mulligan, of Boston, present a batch of letters embracing correspondence of, Blaine, Fisher and Caldwell, everyone of whieh refers to the stale, played-out stories about the Lattle Rock railroad. We hope every Republican will read these letters. nota new allegation against Blaine, not a.aew particle of dence against his character, not a charge that has not been already, and fully met. _ New York Extra: Assuming the letters to be genuine, and that they are, as arrayed, trae to the original in punctuation and arrangement, we have to say of them that they amplify a little more precisely what was known before. SAS ee See a eee The letters show that Mr. Blaine was not fortunate in his business associations at one time, and thus his associates were pleased then to assume that they had obtained a power over him and were to be enMr. eviand met ) _would doubtless be many’ thousands There. is. : in way that ee had no warrant the assuming were implied, Boston Traveler: Their net effect is to ge far toward establishing’ Mr. Blalue’s entire honesty and integrity n the Little Rock and Fort Smith
matter, by testimony tendered. with the intent to injure him, and ont of the very mouths of his enemies. Every man capable of reflection would naturally expect that result too, for it goes without saying that if his slanderers had really held in their hands any weapons,more effective against Mr. Blaine.than those which they employed without effect in 1876, they would scarcely bave waited until now to use them. Rapid Growth of Carp. One of the large reservoirs on the ranch of M. D. Calkins, pvear this city, was emptied this week in order to “ascertain how the fish placed therein at various times had prospered, The mirror carp, brought from Washington, D. C., and planted a year ago last March, when they were six months old, now weigh eleven pounds, and measure 2 feet 24 inches in length and 18 inches around the largest part. of the body. There were also found 500 mirror carp of this years spawn. measuring from one to six inches in length. There of the young ones but for the’ fact that a large quantity of trout have until now been kept in the same reservoir, The scale carp put in last May now average 44 pounds in weight and are from 15 to 16 inches long, having gained 4 pounds this season. The fish have been assorted and hereafter the trout and each kind of carp will be kept by themselves. The mirror carp are extremely handsome. They have a row of large scales each side of the dorsal fin, also along the ventral fin and near the tail. The balance of the-body is free from scales. The back and sides are of a deep golden yellow beautifully shaded with rieh brown stripes and spots. The belly is white with a yellowish tinge. Two of these fish, which are rare in this country, filled the bottom of « large wash-tub and it took some skill to get them adjusted in the tub so as tocover them with water while moving them to their new quarters from time to time. —_—____> +2 ---— ——— Boy Hurt.

The Road Business Taken Out of Supervisors’ Hands By It. The Legislature did a wise act when in framing the new road law they provided for the appointment, of a road overseer or road master as @ separate office from that of Supervisor. Section 2642, article 3, of chapter 11, provides that ‘‘the Board of Supervisors ofeach county shall appoint one rozd overseer or road master fer each road district in their county.” Section 2645 makes it the duty of the road overseer to. ‘‘take charge of the highways,” * * “keep them in good repair,” * “make quarterly reports under oath of the number ‘of days they nave been employed, the number of days labor performed on the roads in their district, by whom performed, and the wages‘paid,” etc., etc., “and\shall receive for his services a sum not to exceed three hundred dollars in any one year.” This amount was formerly allowed the Supervisor in addition to his salary as a member of the Board, but hereafter he will receive no compensation whatever for or in consideration of anything he may do in ‘cennection with road matters. Thus it is seen that the road business is taken completely out ef the hands of the Supervisor and made a separate office, which is avery wise move for several reasons. It has frequently happened, under the old law which combines the two offices in one, that the Supervisor was elected on account of bis qualifications asa road master, entirely ignoring the most important part of a Supervisor’s qualifications, that of being able to successfully cope with the financial problems that present themselves to the Board of Supervisors at every session. We need asa Supervisor a man who has had experience in financial matters—a business man, Such a one we have in the regular Republican nominee, Chas, E. Mulloy, who has served the county once for four years as Deputy Assessor and Tax Collector, and who has for a long time been in business in our midst. We need as aroad overseer a man who has had experience in building roads and and bridges and such a one we are likely to get, as we understand that three or four of our most experienced road builders intend to make application to the Board of Suprvisors for the appointment of road overseer of this district. * * For BoARD and lodging or a good K. T. RE-UNION. Consecration of the Grand Standard of Nevada Commandery.
