By Mall, 2 « 12 1-2c Per Week Issued Every Evening, Sundays Excepted, at Nevada City. . THE DOCUMENT FADING. ECRETARY OF STATE HAY has had the original copy of ‘the Declaration of Independence examined by a committee of experts, which reports that the document is rapidly becoming illegible. Only one or go of the signatures can be read with the naked eye, and while the text of the document can be made out fairly well, it is only with difficulty. In view of the natural decay. of this precious document refusal has been made of the application to exhibit it at the St. Louis Exposition, and hereafter it will be kept safely locked in a dry, dark vault. 3 There have been many suggestions made concerning the preservation and restoration of the instrument, but none have met-with approval. An engraving firm once proposed to reproduce the lines upon the original parchment by going over the old ones and’where the Signatures have faded wholly to replace them from existing photographic copies. But the suggestion has been rejected because such treatment would not result in producing much more than a copy, of which many are in existétice in fac simile. The fact is there is not known, and probably will never be any process for the production of writing upon paper or parchment that will wholly resist natural assault of time. The immortal “Declaration” must go the way of all things earthly, but it is taking the " course with greater rapidity and in a shorter time than any other known document of comparative importance. There are hundreds of original documents centuries old, still in a good state.of preservation, though decaying, which will re— quiré action of still other centuries of time to reduce them to dust. The trouble’with the Declaration of Independence is that it was"not written with the best quality of ink, nor with pens best adapted to putting the ink into the surface, nor was it written upon a substance so prepared so as to withstand natural decay during long time. While the signers of that immortal charter were fally conscious of its importance and histronic interest, all the eviderice indicates that the idea did not occur tothem. They were too intent upon the spirit of their charter of freedom to give profound attention to the permanency of the record. But the happy fact remains that although the original manuscript of the Declaration may, like all things earthly, finally crumble into dust, the principles of Liberty, Freedom and True Patriotism which compose the structural timber of this precious document are immortal and will last as long as the world endures. The lines which form the signatures of the signers of the parchment may fade away, but the Memory of the noble work and deeds of these patriots will never fade away; their names dre graven in the very heart of the Amera ican Nation and willnever be oliterated. In accordance with the usual custom the Declaration of Independence will be publicly read next Saturday in every city or village throughout the Union wherever a Fourth of July celebrationis held. In this connection the TRANSCRIPT respectfully suggests that at the exercises to be held in Grass Valley this week, in which Nevada City people will join, that the names of the signers be read in connection with the text matter of the document. This important, part has hitherto been omitted, but for what reason we do not know. CHAN) -ODEnING Personal Notes. Hotel Antlers to En.

A telephone message received at the TRANSCRIPT office this morning from Daniel Macauley, who left this -city a few days ago for Beckwith Pass, Sierra county, to further prosecute the search for his missing brother, Michael Macauley, stated that the body of the old gentleman had been found, stark and stiff in death. The body was found at a place called Kurnton Hill, only two miles from his home, and on the Plumas county side. The body was attired in the same that hedied a natural death were in evidence. The remains werein 4 fair state of preservation and were easily recognizable to those who had known deceased in life, no doubt due to the fact that they were covered by a mantle of snow and which had but lately melted away sufficiently to expose the body. This is the main reason why tbe searchers were unrewarded in their efforts long’ere this. Mr. Macauley, the dead man, came to this city the fore part of March last to pay his brother and sister a visit, and after remaining here two or three weeks bid his relatives farewell on the 18th of March and took his departure on the afternoon train for home. Victor Mondo, a friend accompanied him. Together they took the train at Truckee for home, Mr. Macauley, as stated before, living all alone on a ranch two miles out from Beckwith Pass, which is situated near the line of Sierra and. Plumas counties, and about six miles from Loyalton, Sierra county. Mr. Macauley reached home on the 23d of March. It was sometime after reaching his destination that a numDied al the Hospital Ab Luke an aged Chinaman who has been an inmate of the County Hospital for about two months, died there this morning. He was75 yeareof age and was brought from Grass Valley during the first part of May month to receive treatment for general debility and other infirmities. : ! The remains were not interred in the hospital grounds but have been taken away by his Chinese friends of ths city, who will conduct the funeral according to their ritualistic rites and bury hia. in the Mongolian graveyard near town. ~~ -+@e--—__—__— Take Comfort.

Upon arrival the house was found to be deserted and a thorough search of the premises failed to reveal anything of his whereabouts. Searching parties were. immediately organized and every effort made to locate the missing man, but the search proved futile untif word came this morning from his brother, Daniel, who has made an inexhaustive search, announcing the worst. Deceased, who. was about 70 years of age, is supposed to have wandered off while in a. state of mental aberration and become lost, finally lying down and succumbing to the rigid effects of the inclement weather then existing. : Besides the brother, Daniel Macauley, who is now in Sierra Valley, deceased leaves a sister, Mrs. DeBat, one nephew, Samuel Macauley, and two nieces, Mrs. Philip Derrig and Mrs. Thomas Torpie, all of this city. The funeral and burial of ‘the old gentleman took place at his late home on the.outekirts of Sierra Valley today. Daniel Macauley will remain in that section of country about two weeks in order to settle up the affairs of deceased. The only property left is the small ranch upon which deceased lived and in valuation this does not amount to very. much, To his anxiety to find his brother, dead or .alive, and to buoy up the hearts of the searchers, Daniel Ma! cauley offered a reward of $100 to any person or persons discovering his whereabouts. Upon being informed and shown the corpse, Mr. Macauley immediately dispatched to this city for the money and upon -receipt of the the same will promptly pay it’over. Taken to Prison.

When a good man dies—and in the term good we include tbe virtues of progressiveness and usefulness—he is greatly mourned by the people, This can be said truthfully of the late Chas, Hegarty of Moores Flat, whose progressive character and enterprise in his community was widely known and recognized. , Children 25 cents; . — The people at Moore’s Flat and vicinity are now deploring the loss of the direct passenger transportation and mail service from this city to that. point. During the time Mr. Hegarty was alive he was influential in keeping the Postoffice open in that town, and for many years officiated as Postmaster, the office being located in his stors building. This gave a very satisfactory service which was not only highly pleasing to the people of that vicinity but also to the residents of near-by settlements, including the Plambago mine at which place there are quite a number of people residing. For a number of years Col. Matber the enterprising superintendent of the Plumbago, bascontributed $50 per year there, as the salary allowed by the Government was too small to repay a Postmaster for his work. The total salary only netted $12 per month, and after Mr. Hegarty died his wife took the place in the office but finally gave it up, on account of removing elsewhere. Since then the office has been closed up and as no responsible person would accept the position, the Government finally discontinued the office and ordered the mail sent to this point to be taken via Alleghany, in Sierra county. I now takes a day longer to get pasPlumbago mine, by way of Alleghany, Sierra county, and this is proving a great inconvenience to residents in that,section of the country.
