In October a man, named Stamps, brought his wife and several children here, and built a cabin on the forks of the ravine back of Coyote street. His. wife was the first lady that graced this rough part of creation with her presence, Now, thank Providence, Nevada, with the progress. of improvements ih other respecta, is blessed with the society of a large number _of the “dear, The first building on Broad street dates back to the last of September, 1849, and was built by John Truesdale, just back of the lot where the Hotel de Paris now stands, In the spring of 1850, ‘Truex and Blackman built a log store on’ the spot where A. W. Potter’s handsome brick building now stands, on Main street. _Robert Gordon, about the same time, built a log store on the lot where Lackman’s baild. ing now is on Commercial street./The first board building in Nevada was built by Madame Penn, in the spring of 1850, on the spot where the Empire now stands, at the foot of Main street, The first hotel opened in Nevada City was by Womack and Kenzie, early in the spring of 1850, on the spot now occupied by Espenscheid’s brick building. In April, 1850, the ‘Nevada Hotel,” on the site of the present Oriental, was built by J._N. Turner, of rafted pine boards; and what is singular as illustrating the immense size to which the heretofore’ unmatestedténiaiits of the forests hereabouts had attained, the whole house—thirty-eight feet front and forty-eight in depth, all the rafters, beams, floors, etc.—were taken out of one tree. The honse opened on the first day of May with forty boarders. The moderate price of board and lodging:in these daya waa $25: per week. The winter of 1849-50 was of a very-severe-nature, andthe transportation of goods from helow was very difficult. — In March, 1850, the snow was ten feet deep on the banks of Deer Oreek—three times the depth it has ever since attained, Goods of all kinds sold at exorbitant rates. We instance a few of the staples of those days: fresh beef and pork sold at 80 cents per pound; molasses, $7.50 a gallon; flour at 44 cents; potatoes, 75 cents; onions, $1.50; calf hoots, $20; stout boots from $30 to $40; long-handled shovels, $16. The only kinds of medicines in the pharmacopwia. of the physicians of those days were calomel, laudanum and opium, which were administered for all diseases-andwounds, with little respect to symptoms, The first great mail arrived at Sacramento in December, 1849, and an express was immediately started by some brothers named Bowers, who charged the moderate rateof $2.50 for conveying letters and $1 for papers. This was the first express started from Nevada, and remained in operation till superceded by the larger expresses from below. The news of the great mail having arrived below spread through the mines and It was-the The following we find in the Nevada County Directory, which was published’ by Nat. P. Brown and John K.

Call: The trial of a mining suit of more than usual interest and magnitude was commenced in the United States Circuit Court Tuesday afternoon. Lawyers who have appeared in many of the most important coast represented the contestants, and there was a goodly sprinkling of capitalists present to witness the beginning of the legal battle, The suit is that of the Consolidated Wyoming Gold Mining Company against the Champion Mining Company. The property over which the companies are at war is on Deer Creek, near Nevada City, and is valued at $1,000,000. The Wyoming Company asserts that the Champion has sunk upon. its veins inthe clip and has extracted ore’ therefrom fora number of years, to the amount of bearly 50,000 tons, of the value of $10 a ton net: The suit is brought to en join the Champion Company from furthér werking on the ledges claimed by the Consolidated Wyoming, and to receive the value of the ore al= ready extracted. , The defendant company asserts that. because of the-share of the plaintiff's claims it has ne extra lateral Tights, and that the defendant was, therefore, entitled to work the ore under its own surface. The attorneys in the case are: John M, Wright of Oakland, W. 8. Wood of San Francisco, and F. Searls of Nevada City, for the Wyoming Company. Lindley'& Eickoff and George Hloeffer for the defendant. A very elaborate model of the mines was displayed with maps and other exhibits. The ‘opening statement by Attorney Wright occupied two hours and outlined as interesting a set of propositions in mining law as have been litigated since the celebrated Eureka dase was tried. The principal testimony of the-witnesses-for-the plaintiff will be heard today when they will show the workings of the different companies upon the lodes in dispute. Among the members of the companies engaged in the trial are: A. G. Gurnett, W. L. Van Wyck, L. 0, Marshutz and Charles Pau of the Wyoming and I’, Zeitler of the Champion, PEST NT AT _ LOCALS IN BRIEF, Summarized Mention of Minor Home Happenings.

An: important element in the present *4siness of this county is supplied by the settlementscreate-a-demand for lumber, The importance of this business may be judged of from the fact that there are now eleven-saw mills in prosperous operation within a circuit of two miles around the city. The first saw mill commenced in Nevada was on Deer Creek, just above the town, in August, 1850, and was built by Lewis & Son, with a water wheel. Shortly . after, one Moore erected a steam saw mill f on Little Deer Creek, now known as Hirst’s mill, and in-this mill the first lumber in the place was sawed. In Holt’s mill, four miles below Grass Valley, afterwards burnt by the Indians, lumber was sawed as early as the 3rd of May, 1850, and the first in the county. * settlement in March, 1850, on the eccasion of an election of Aleade. A murder committed in the neighborhood, and several . other depredations, excited public attention, . and the residents concluded that, to prevent such occurrences, it was necessary some authority should be lodged in the hands of an officer. Early in March, therefore; an impromptu election was held, a which about 250 votes were cast. Captain Woods, Col. Lamb and O, P. Blackman were judges of the election, and Mr. Stamps was declared duly elected. He held the office for two months, until the election of Olney as Justice of the Peace, at an election in May, appointed by the authorities of the county, and uséd to dispense justice in civil and criminal matters with more fegard to equity than jurisdiction or precedent.

He was raised at Grass Valley, going from there to Oakland a number of years ago. Stevens is charged with having forged the name of W. H. Sigourney to a check on the Oakland Bank for $78.60. This check was given to C. O. G. Miller as security for a loan of $20, Stevens promising to redeem the check in a few days. A warrant for his arrest was issued last Saturday, but the officers have not been able to find him yet, and it is rumored that he is on his way to South Africa, where his wife says he has} 4H.

He also informed the reporter that nearly every tenant on the principal business streets had “had a raise of from thirty to sixty per cent, and that all of them stood the raise,” It is quite evident that more business blocks will be erected in that prosperous town in order to meet the growing demand. At the present time there is not a vacant store in the town, and so far as dwelling houses are concerned there never was such a strong demand for them before.

M. Fitzgerald. It was during this time that Stevens -was at his best. He was admitted to practice law before the Supreme Court and conducted several important cases ip conjunction with Mr. Fitzgerald. ¥ Several years ago the news was passed about among the attorney’s most intimate friends that by the death of a relative, presumably a mother, Stevens had ipherited four. or tive thousand pounds. —Stevens went to England, remained several months, and when he returned was received by his friends as a man of fortune. He had not been home long before the announcement of his forthcoming marriage was made, the young lady being Miss Pauline Rogers, daughter of Captain Rogers, a wealthy West Oakland resident and an old-time ocean pilot,, Then came the marriage and when the wedding trip was over Stevens bought a lot on the corner of Eighth and Filbert streets, where he built a’ handsome house. The ambition of Stevens was to shine as a member of Oakland’s most exclusive society. He gave receptions and dinners and other functions at bis Eighth-street resi+ dence, to which the best of Oakland sodiety was always invited, and the name of Stevens flourished in the columns of, Oakland society journals, For two years this pace was continued, and one day those who knew the attorney best were surprised at his negotiating a loan upen—his—property. The the outer ‘world, This marked the beginning of the end. From bad he went to worse, and finally he was compelled to give up his handsome home and live in a less expensive style in a cottage. From there he was forced to make his residence with his sister-in-law at 1,724 Seward street, West Oakland, Mrs, Stevens is well known in Nevada City, having visited here at different times ; in fact we believe it was in this city. that she first met her husband, She says he is on his way to the African mines, and does not seem a bit perturbed about his absence, _——_—--2g@ eo THE VOTE FOR THE CUP.

In October a man, named Stamps, brought his wife and several children here, and built a cabin on the forks of the ravine back of Coyote street. His. wife was the first lady that graced this rough part of creation with her presence, Now, thank Providence, Nevada, with the progress. of improvements ih other respecta, is blessed with the society of a large number _of the “dear, The first building on Broad street dates back to the last of September, 1849, and was built by John Truesdale, just back of the lot where the Hotel de Paris now stands, In the spring of 1850, ‘Truex and Blackman built a log store on’ the spot where A. W. Potter’s handsome brick building now stands, on Main street. _Robert Gordon, about the same time, built a log store on the lot where Lackman’s baild. ing now is on Commercial street./The first board building in Nevada was built by Madame Penn, in the spring of 1850, on the spot where the Empire now stands, at the foot of Main street, The first hotel opened in Nevada City was by Womack and Kenzie, early in the spring of 1850, on the spot now occupied by Espenscheid’s brick building. In April, 1850, the ‘Nevada Hotel,” on the site of the present Oriental, was built by J._N. Turner, of rafted pine boards; and what is singular as illustrating the immense size to which the heretofore’ unmatestedténiaiits of the forests hereabouts had attained, the whole house—thirty-eight feet front and forty-eight in depth, all the rafters, beams, floors, etc.—were taken out of one tree. The honse opened on the first day of May with forty boarders. The moderate price of board and lodging:in these daya waa $25: per week. The winter of 1849-50 was of a very-severe-nature, andthe transportation of goods from helow was very difficult. — In March, 1850, the snow was ten feet deep on the banks of Deer Oreek—three times the depth it has ever since attained, Goods of all kinds sold at exorbitant rates. We instance a few of the staples of those days: fresh beef and pork sold at 80 cents per pound; molasses, $7.50 a gallon; flour at 44 cents; potatoes, 75 cents; onions, $1.50; calf hoots, $20; stout boots from $30 to $40; long-handled shovels, $16. The only kinds of medicines in the pharmacopwia. of the physicians of those days were calomel, laudanum and opium, which were administered for all diseases-andwounds, with little respect to symptoms, The first great mail arrived at Sacramento in December, 1849, and an express was immediately started by some brothers named Bowers, who charged the moderate rateof $2.50 for conveying letters and $1 for papers. This was the first express started from Nevada, and remained in operation till superceded by the larger expresses from below.

Call: The trial of a mining suit of more than usual interest and magnitude was commenced in the United States Circuit Court Tuesday afternoon. Lawyers who have appeared in many of the most important coast represented the contestants, and there was a goodly sprinkling of capitalists present to witness the beginning of the legal battle, The suit is that of the Consolidated Wyoming Gold Mining Company against the Champion Mining Company. The property over which the companies are at war is on Deer Creek, near Nevada City, and is valued at $1,000,000. The Wyoming Company asserts that the Champion has sunk upon. its veins inthe clip and has extracted ore’ therefrom fora number of years, to the amount of bearly 50,000 tons, of the value of $10 a ton net: The suit is brought to en join the Champion Company from furthér werking on the ledges claimed by the Consolidated Wyoming, and to receive the value of the ore al= ready extracted. , The defendant company asserts that. because of the-share of the plaintiff's claims it has ne extra lateral Tights, and that the defendant was, therefore, entitled to work the ore under its own surface. The attorneys in the case are: John M, Wright of Oakland, W. 8. Wood of San Francisco, and F. Searls of Nevada City, for the Wyoming Company. Lindley'& Eickoff and George Hloeffer for the defendant. A very elaborate model of the mines was displayed with maps and other exhibits. The ‘opening statement by Attorney Wright occupied two hours and outlined as interesting a set of propositions in mining law as have been litigated since the celebrated Eureka dase was tried. The principal testimony of the-witnesses-for-the plaintiff will be heard today when they will show the workings of the different companies upon the lodes in dispute. Among the members of the companies engaged in the trial are: A. G. Gurnett, W. L. Van Wyck, L. 0, Marshutz and Charles Pau of the Wyoming and I’, Zeitler of the Champion, PEST NT AT _ LOCALS IN BRIEF, Summarized Mention of Minor Home Happenings.

An: important element in the present *4siness of this county is supplied by the settlementscreate-a-demand for lumber, The importance of this business may be judged of from the fact that there are now eleven-saw mills in prosperous operation within a circuit of two miles around the city. The first saw mill commenced in Nevada was on Deer Creek, just above the town, in August, 1850, and was built by Lewis & Son, with a water wheel. Shortly . after, one Moore erected a steam saw mill f on Little Deer Creek, now known as Hirst’s mill, and in-this mill the first lumber in the place was sawed. In Holt’s mill, four miles below Grass Valley, afterwards burnt by the Indians, lumber was sawed as early as the 3rd of May, 1850, and the first in the county. * settlement in March, 1850, on the eccasion of an election of Aleade. A murder committed in the neighborhood, and several . other depredations, excited public attention, . and the residents concluded that, to prevent such occurrences, it was necessary some authority should be lodged in the hands of an officer. Early in March, therefore; an impromptu election was held, a which about 250 votes were cast. Captain Woods, Col. Lamb and O, P. Blackman were judges of the election, and Mr. Stamps was declared duly elected. He held the office for two months, until the election of Olney as Justice of the Peace, at an election in May, appointed by the authorities of the county, and uséd to dispense justice in civil and criminal matters with more fegard to equity than jurisdiction or precedent.

He was raised at Grass Valley, going from there to Oakland a number of years ago. Stevens is charged with having forged the name of W. H. Sigourney to a check on the Oakland Bank for $78.60. This check was given to C. O. G. Miller as security for a loan of $20, Stevens promising to redeem the check in a few days. A warrant for his arrest was issued last Saturday, but the officers have not been able to find him yet, and it is rumored that he is on his way to South Africa, where his wife says he has} 4H.

He also informed the reporter that nearly every tenant on the principal business streets had “had a raise of from thirty to sixty per cent, and that all of them stood the raise,” It is quite evident that more business blocks will be erected in that prosperous town in order to meet the growing demand. At the present time there is not a vacant store in the town, and so far as dwelling houses are concerned there never was such a strong demand for them before.

M. Fitzgerald. It was during this time that Stevens -was at his best. He was admitted to practice law before the Supreme Court and conducted several important cases ip conjunction with Mr. Fitzgerald. ¥ Several years ago the news was passed about among the attorney’s most intimate friends that by the death of a relative, presumably a mother, Stevens had ipherited four. or tive thousand pounds. —Stevens went to England, remained several months, and when he returned was received by his friends as a man of fortune. He had not been home long before the announcement of his forthcoming marriage was made, the young lady being Miss Pauline Rogers, daughter of Captain Rogers, a wealthy West Oakland resident and an old-time ocean pilot,, Then came the marriage and when the wedding trip was over Stevens bought a lot on the corner of Eighth and Filbert streets, where he built a’ handsome house. The ambition of Stevens was to shine as a member of Oakland’s most exclusive society. He gave receptions and dinners and other functions at bis Eighth-street resi+ dence, to which the best of Oakland sodiety was always invited, and the name of Stevens flourished in the columns of, Oakland society journals, For two years this pace was continued, and one day those who knew the attorney best were surprised at his negotiating a loan upen—his—property. The the outer ‘world, This marked the beginning of the end. From bad he went to worse, and finally he was compelled to give up his handsome home and live in a less expensive style in a cottage. From there he was forced to make his residence with his sister-in-law at 1,724 Seward street, West Oakland, Mrs, Stevens is well known in Nevada City, having visited here at different times ; in fact we believe it was in this city. that she first met her husband, She says he is on his way to the African mines, and does not seem a bit perturbed about his absence, _——_—--2g@ eo THE VOTE FOR THE CUP.
