How It Held on in the Case of MeSherry. “Verdenal,” the New York correspondent of the San Francisco Chronicle;“writes as follows under date of Saturday: ~ «Ww, B. McSherry of Grass Valley, who has been here for some months trying to secure capital, ostensibly to build a mill on some Nevada county mine, suddenly realizes that women have. memories as keen as those of men, fora wife he left here years ago suddenly turns up with-an abandonment suit and has him ‘jugged’ in default of bail. It’s arough ‘way wives have of dealing with their recalcitrant spouses.” A Raging Fire. . A forest fire is raging this afternoon to the east of Grass Valley and half or threequarters of a mile below the Idaho reservoir. From here it has the appearance of being on David Bryan's farm.

It was reserved for Mr. A. Burrows of the barof this county to fill up this vacancy by contributing to legal literature a work which places him among the front rank of California authors and law writers of the period. His digest of the last nine vo , umes of the decisions of the Supreme Court of California, a leather bound book of over 400 pages, has been issued by the Bancroft-Whituey Company and is already in the library of every lawyer in the State. Speaking to a prominent member of ’the bar of this work, he ventured the’ assertion that Burrows’ digest was the best work of the kind ever printed on this side of the Mississippi. ‘‘Its peculiarity,’’he said, ‘‘consists in its makeup, It gives you the very pith and substance of the most intricate cases ina few words. It makes no attempt to cut down the long and verbose language of the decisions, but he boldly translates them ‘with condensed form in apt language remarkable, no less for its brevity than for its technical accuracy. It is a work that th already given the writer a state reputation.” : Mr. Burrows has “been ‘long known to the readers of the TraNnscripr and the Overland Monthly as a writer of great force and skill, and his briefs filed in many cases before the Supreine Court are said to be models of clean-cué statements and forcible argument, Above is given a picture of Mr. Bur‘ows obtained through a stiiap-camera-and The Telegraph says: innumerable parties haye tried and exhaused every means to secure some sort of ahold onthe famous Allison Rauch mine situated on Wolf creek, a few miles south of Grass Valley, but up to the present time all efforts in that direction have been utter failure. E The object so long sought for by capi. talists from all parts of the world has just been accomplished by two well known gentlemen of Nevada county, Captain John E. Carter, foreman of the Idaho mine of this place, and Mr. Francis Burns, the well known mining engineer of Nevada City. The gentlemen named have signed all necessary papers, bonding the mine in the sum of $70,000, -and are to pay $5000 on the bond within thirty days. “Our reporter could not see either Mr. Carter ‘or Mr. Burns to get further par“ ticulars concernmy their late business transaction, but the above facts, meager as_they are, will be hailed with delight by this entire community. ‘There should not be-a aman whe has the least-envy_toward Messrs. Carter and Burns, but ali should glory in what they have accomplished and give them all the encouragement possible. The success of Messrs. Carter and Burns means great prosperity for Grass Valley, for the old Allison Ranch is known to be rich, and when fully opened yp will give . employment to hundreds of men. The mine was discovered’ in 1851 and worked until 1867, since. which time: it has remained idle. , The first erushing—about one and a half tons—is said to have yielded $376 per ton. In 1855. eighteen tons of ore was Grushed at the Gold Hill mill, $338 per ton being the handsome yield, and another lot of sixty-two tons yielded over $370 per ton. Accurate records of the imine show that the ore averaged $50 per ton. ‘The gross yield from 1455 to 1866 waa, in round numbers, $2,300,000, of which $1,000,000 was produced in the In the year ending 1866 the product was under $200,000. : Tne mine was costly to work, partly because at times the vein was small and, the enclosing syenite hard, but quite as much perhaps from iujudicious managethree years ending with 1865. tion well in advance of the immediate wants. ‘The mine was idle from flooding with water from December, 1861, to May, 1862, and in Jannary, 18157, it was closed down to retain so until the present day. It was very wet to work. The current expenses in 1865 were stated at $500 per day, the force of men averaging to the time of closing down—one-hundred—and which-many of his friends insist give a fair idea of his fine personal appearance.

Its severest form is that of running sores on the arms, legs, or feet. Bunches in the glands of the neck, pimples, cancerous growths, swollen joints, and thickening of the upper lip, are other symptoms. Hood's Sarsaparilla has had wonderful success in curing scrofula, It thoroughly eradicates the humor from the blood, and gives it new vitality and richness. Mrs. William McDonald, Wooster, O., for eighteen months suffered with scrofufous swellings ot the glands in the neck, Hoed’s Sarsaparilla gave immediate rellef, the swellings being largely reduced. Swellings in the Neck. Joseph Dunphy, 214 Central Street, Lowell, Mass,, had swellings and lumps on his neck and face, which various pastes, ointments and medicines failed to stop. A shopmate, whose wife had been cured of a sore on her arm by Hood's Sarsaparilla, 1 hended the medicine, and he bought a Luttle.
