EAS tars ei merce tn nme a i Sn at ok ee I ds 5 on Hevada Democrat. LOCAL MATTERS, More Rosnenrtes.—The Smith family are in a bad run of luck just at the present time. In last Tuesday’s issue we chronicled the robbery of Mr. John Smith, of forty dollars, while on his way from town to his place of residence on American Hill. until about half past ten at night, when he started home with a twenty-dollar piece in his pocket. This time, Mr. Smith admits, liquor . had a little advantage of him. While walking . leisurely and deviously along on Lost Hill, with . his hands in his pockets, he was suddenly stopped by two highwaymen, who presented their pistols and demanded his money. Smith in. stantly jerked his hands from his pockets, at . the same time throwing the twenty-dollar piece . as far as he could, and one of the robbers . struck at him with a knife, cutting his panta. loons and grazing his leg. They then searched him, and finding no money on his person, one of them struck him a severe blow over the head . with a pistol, knocking him down, and left him lying on the ground. Mr. Smith was engaged . most of the day yesterday, looking for his twenty-dollar piece, but his search was unsuccessful. Mr. Samuel Smith, the agent for the Gold . Run Ditch, was robbed the same evening. He . started for Gold Flat about nine o’clock, and . was stopped by three men about half a mile from town, and robbed of thirty dollars in money and a silver watch. The robbers were disguised, and presenting their pistols at Mr. . anticipating an agreeable re-union. . cessfulas this for purifying the blood, and for the . . the worst symptoms of these distressing complaints, . pws Weaver, ) id B, NEWMAN, . Smith, gave him to understand their object . without speaking a word. ANOTHER Serres oF LectuREes.—We un. derstand that another course of lectures—for . which arrangements were partially made some. GROCERIES AND PROVISIONS, time ago, but for the time suspended, as it was . ascertained that the Methodist Church would . begin a course about the same time—will commence in this place about the 20th of May. The . lectures will be under the direction of the Lec. ture Committee of the Baptist Church, and the . proceeds will go to assist in liquidating the debt remaining on their new church edifice. We are pleased to learn that the Baptist Church 1s now in a comparatively flourishing condition. By . the first of June next every dollar of its indebtedness will be paid, excepting the sum borrowed to assist in the erection of their church build. ing. As the lectures for the Methodist Church are advertised to close on the 16th of May, and . in order that the series may be concluded be. fore the extreme hot weather of Summer, the beginning of the course is fixed at about the 20th of May or Ist of June.

AMALGAMATORS, F ‘or Gold or Silver Ores, which are claimed to pos. sexs the following advantages over all others now in use, viz. : Ist. They ave equally adapted to the amalgamation of Ores, either Wet or Dry crushed. 2d. Being Self-feeding und Self-diacharging, they require but little attention; one man being sufficient to attend thirty or more. 3d. During the process of amalgamation they reduce the ore to an almost impalpable powder, in close contact with a large surface of mereury, but do not grind the mereury, 4th. Itis claimed for them, and demonstrated, that they will save from 25 to 100 per cent. more . gold than any other amalgamator now in use, The Amalgamating Dans are put in sets of ‘three, discharging into each’ other; three of which setts are capable of thoroughly amalgamating at least ten tons of gold ore per day, and, with a slight addition, . are equally adapted to the amalgamation of Silver Ores by any ot the old or new processes, The Pans ave about four feet in diameter, and supplied with a false, perforated, or grate bottom, upon which the grinding is done, which allows the gold, as soon as united with the mercury, to séttle beneath the grate, and, remain as safe’ as if under lock and key, In cleaning up the pans and separating the amalgam but one-tenth of the usual labor is required, The parts most exposed to wear are made of hard iron, and easily replaced, at trifling cost. All orders for these Amalgamators ean be sent to PETER DONAHUE, on Frat street, San Franéisco, at whose Foundry they can be seen in operation.
