In almost every locality business is prostrated and failures are frequent. In the mining sections this prostration is more apparent because the people depend directly or indirectly upon the one pursuit, and the-want-of capital for development is more immediately feltWe do not bélieve that this prostration is permanent any more than its caases, and it is well known that the scarcity of money, caused by the large demand for White Pine investments, and land speculations are the primary causes of prostration in business. Good times may again be brought about, but the question is, how can this be done? In this locality it may to some extent be effected by co-operative enterprises in mining. Many of the mines worked in this county are of no benefit except in the wages they pay andthe taxes,every ~ dollar made being taken out of the county and invested in other localities Co-operative enterprises in mining, un-~ dertaken by men who understand the business, and who are permanently settled, would not only benefit the community to the extent of. the expenses paid in-working,but if there isa profit,it will go to those who will use it to build up the community. There are several mines which might be named, any of which might be leased or bought by a company and worked at a profit. There area number of men of smali means who can well afford to invest in an une dertaking of this kind, from one to five ‘Lundred dollars, and who would do 80, if they believed that the money would be used in prospecting good Mines. By sucha movement as this, employment would be given to those who are idle, and enliven business to the extent of employment given. We are satisfied that many working men would gladly enter into a movement of this kind for one third or half regular wages, and take their chances for the remainder if the enterprise proved successful. By some ,such system’ of working, many of the mines in this county that are now idle in consequence of bad management, might be again} worked and brought up to thé standard of paying mines. As soon as this is done, or as long as the standing of the county is maintained asa rich min= -eral section, capital will be invested,and men of means from the East will come in to help us. There are yét unlimited Opportunities ‘in the mines of this county, and during the past year, notwithstanding dull times much ‘has been accomplished in the way of develop~ment-——Let our people cease their croaking and take advantage of the Opportunities around them, and we are confident times will improve. It is idle to fold our arms and expect capitalists to come and help us. We-must first demonstrate the wealth of our mines and capital will seon come, begging for the chances, a HEkoDoTUvs mentions a tradition,that once the Caspian Sea became covered with a fluid which took fire, converting the whole int@one vast sheet of flame. The truth of this tradition wag verified by an extraordinary occurrence which took place in July of the present year, The islands in this sea, it is well known, abound in wells of naptha, From some cause, these wells, overflowed, and the naptha, running fate the sea, became ignited. For over forty-eight hours, many thousand square miles were one rolling, tossing billow of flame, which only died out with the exhaustion of the inflammable matter on which it fed. No loss of haman life has been reported; but, when the’ fire liad burned iteelf out, the sea was found to de thickly O. C. PRATT. . ing three pounds was covered with dead fish. SONS TTLT NE ISITE TEE SENTENCE oF Ropert DepMay.— From the Gold Hill News of Monday evening we geg the following: At 10 o'clock this morning ‘Robert Dedman, cgi of murder in the second degre@ for killmg Albert Springer, was brought into the District Court-at Virginia, and Judge Richard Rising--pronounced the following decision : : Rebert Dedman: You were indicted by the Grand Jury, at the pregent term of Court, for the murder of Albert Springer, on the dof August last, to which you pleaded not guilty. : In due season you were placed upo trial before a jury of your peers, ably defended by counsel of your own choice and selection ; the trial resulted in your conviction for the crime of murder. in the second degree. This has been appointed as the time for pronouncing judgment upon-the verdict of the jury. Have you any legal cause. to show why such judgment should not be pronounced ? Offering no sufficient legal cause, sen~ tence by the Court must follow. I. purpose referring bat briefly to the facts established at the trial. It appeared that, procuring a pistol, and without cause or apparent provocation, you deliberately and secretly advanced upon the deceased, across-a room sixty feet in length, and with this deadly weapon, used asa club, strack him_upon the head, felling him to the floor, and while thus helpless, weltering in his blood, you centinued:to inflict fatal blows ; then declaring it to have been your intention to kill but for the interposition of others. The déceased had not offended you, or even spoken to you that night; was entirely ignorant and unsuspecting of your premeditated. assault and attack, when stricken by your blows. The act, coupled with the exters nal manifestation of intention, in my judgment constituted marder of the first degree, and had the jury so found and returned,the evidence, in Jaw,would have sustained the verdict. But fortunately for you, their deliberations so resulted that your crime was reduced to that of murder in the second degree, The conviction of the jury, of the enormity of your offense, was so clear and positive that they unanimously request the Court to impose the severest penalty known to the law. I sanction this recommendation, not solely because the jury made it, but that it is in accordance with my own opinions. I can not well conceive of a much more deliberate, intentional and aggravated case of murder in the second degree, than the facts and circumstances exhibit and illustrate this to be—and the penalty will be correspondingly severe. The punishment prescribed by law for this offense, is imprisonment tor not leas than ten years and may exténd to life, It is therefore ordered,and is the sens tence and judgment of the Court, that you, Robert Dedman, be imprisoned in the State Prison of the State of Nevada, at hard labor, and that such imprisonment commence now, and continue and extend during your natural life. The Sheriff will execute the judgment of the Court, The Court room was well crowded with interested listeners, and the prisoner stood up firmly while his sentence was being pronounced, showing but little fear or trepidation—he took it like a philosopher. He looked rather pale and careworn, but apparently more from the effects of his imprisonment than anything else. Of the justice of. the decision everybody is fully entitled to think for themselves, but judging from the evidence inthe case, and all circumstances connected with it, we cannot look upon Judge Rising’s decision in any other light than itis eminently sound, correct and just. LAkGE VEGETABLES.—A beat weighpresented us yess terday, etc —Ex. 1 : The Republicans were the fortunate or unfortunate. recipients of a weightier beat than that,’a few days since. Indeed we doubt if there is a ‘more as~ tonishing beat on record. FIFTEEN miles from Yreka there is a spring from which issues in one volume fully 2,000 inches of clear, cold water. It discharges into Shasta river. An, attempt has been made to bring this water into Yreka by a ditch, but the scheme has been abandoned as impracticable. ' TIGER-TAIL is the name of the. Chief of the remnant of the Seminoles in Florida. He is having trouble. The graves of his dead are being robbed, and he talks of, taking to the warpath to avenge the desecration. we. “ THANKS.—We are indebted to Geo. R.

Second street, . After giving the door a ; heavy kicking he exclaimed : “Coom . out of that, ye d—d blagards! Don't . ye know that this is a whoite man’s counthry.: Don’t ye know the Dimoc. yacy has carried. the eliction? Coom . out here now, till I break the heads of At this . ivery d—d mither’s son o’ ye.” ; 7 J juncture some one came along and . spoiled the “whoite man’s fun.” . EMPIRE Mine.—The Empire Com. pany, says the Grass Valley Unison, are . now taking out rock from the Rush & . Laton ground, south of the main shaft: ; The ledge in this ground ‘s from eigh-.; teen itches to two feet in thickness, and shows well jn sulphurets. The new. incline on the Rush & Laton ground is down 200 feet, and has separate hoisting works to raise the rock through it. In the main works of the mine, from the 800 foot level, splendid specimen rock was being taken’on Sat~ urday. DasTAKDLY OUTRAGE.—Last Saturday evening, says the Grass Valley Union, some man, whose mame we are sorry that we do not know,committed a dastardly outrage by cutting off the queue of an unoffending Chinaman so quickly, and performed the cutting with such rapidity, that those who saw the act failed to recognize the perpetrator of the outrage. It is well enough to go slow in such things, for neither law nor-public cpinion will tolerate such actions. hippie Nevapa County.—The total vote for Senator in Nevada county, this year, cratic. Last year the vote fer Sargert was 3,083 ; for Coffroth 2,320. So there is a failing off 920 in the Republican vote, with only a gain of 155 in the Democratic vote. It is a singular coincidence that these figures are precisely the same in Sacramento county; the Republican falling off being $0, the Democratic increase 155 .in comparison with the Congressional vote last year. Sac. Union, In these figures six precincts of this county are not included. GOING To GET MARRIED.—Now that Bob Dedman is provided with a home for life at the State’s expense, house, grub, clothing, fire, lights, washing, and everything else included, he thinks best to have a wife also, therefore the marriage license is already made out, and he will marry Grace Kerrison forthwith. She was the cause of his killing ting into his present status. So says the Gold Hill News, of Monday evening. APPROPRIATE PRESENTS.—The Sac~ ramento Pioneers have ordered the manufacture of a considerable number Mills, to be taken along when they make their contemplated overland ex~ cursion, for presents to their respective THE new Legislature of Tennessee will elect.a United States Senator to take the place of Fowler, Andrew Jonson, Emerson Etheridge, Bailie Peyton, and Senter, just elected Goyernor, are mentioned for the position. Brick Pomeroy says there is no denying the fact that Senter will be the next Senator’from Tennessee. so desires; and so it will be. “Brownlow A REcouNT.—On demand of McCoppin, the Board of Supervisors in’ San Francisco are recounting the votes.— The result in the First Ward was a loss of sixteen to Selby and one to McCoppin. With this sort of figuring, McCoppin may win yet. Four Americans in Paris have made very liberal offers to the Heidseick heirs for their extensive champagne establishment at Rheims.

There are other photographs besides those which are taken in the studio of the maker of portraits. Every object on the earth’s suriace ig continually our eyes, butwhick are nevertheless well.marked and definite, and might be rendered visible, it properly developed, as the photographers would call it. So that, in fact, the surface of this earth is nothing but one huge photograph, on which is delineated all objects, and all pussing events. Sometimes these photégraphs become so far develhis possessiOn a surveyors instrument, en the front lens of which there is plainly. seen a beautiful jandscape, with all the varied hues of nature, Some fifteen years ago, according to the oWfier’s account, the tnstrument had been in use, and was-left standing for atime, on the plain, in a scorching mid-day’s sup, fronting a woodland. all the various colors of the landscape, . was photographed on the lens, and has remained unchangeable to the présent . time. The truth of all this is easily tested in the following manner. Take a sheet of clean white paper, on it lay aleaf, and place the whole, fora few hours, in~bright sunlight: . Remove the leaf and lay away the sheet of paper in a drawer, or—other dark place. If, after the lapse of a few months, the paper be again place in the sunlight, an image of the leaf will appear on its suriace. ‘ > OYSTERS FROM THE ATLANTIC Coast. Charley Legate, the well known res~ received by railroad from New York a fresh Shrewsbury oysters. They came through in excellent orderall “alive and kicking,” and created a decided sensation among the lovers of such bivalves.The oysters were put up by Tim Shea, formerly of this city, at Mr. Legate’s request, and forwarded be brought across the continent during hot weather. It is now considered safeto ship them at all sasons. We are under obligations to Legate fora lot of the strangers, which we very readily ‘‘took in.” A few years ago it was thought wonderful to be able to obtain fresh oysters as tar out West as the Mississippi River, now they can be carried clean across the Continent. This is the first lot of oysters that has ever been shipped over the railroad to this coast,and Mr. Legate deserves credit for his enterprise in trying the experiment.— Verginia Enterprise.
