[Note: H. G. Rollins withdrew as candidate for Assembly in August aftr learning that he hadn’t lived in the county long enough to qualify. He was replaced on the ticket by George D. Dornin.] WEDNESDAY, JUNE 21, 1865 LINCOLN’S GETTYSBURG SPEECH.—Since the death of Mr. Lincoln, the whole candid world acknowledges his greatness and goodness; and it has even been discovered that he was wonderfully eloquent. Of all his later speeches, perhaps the brief one delivered on the occasion of the dedication of the Gettysburg National Cemetery is the most admired and best. Ralph Waldo Emerson said of it that “his speech at Gettysburg will not easily be surpassed by words on any recorded occasion.” Here is that speech: [Text followed] A NEW INVENTION.—C. F. Macy, of You Bet, has been testing a new nozzle in the hydraulic claims in that section of the county which is looked upon with great favor by the miners. For the improvement credit is due to Hon. Seth Martin. The object of the invention is to destroy the spiral motion communicated to the water by the ordinary pipe and nozzle. Experiments show that by the improved nozzle the head of water is not so liable to spread and is therefore much more effective in mining. IN our review of candidates [presumably in the missing June 20 issue] we neglected to mention the fact that J. C. Garber of Red Dog, our nominee for Recorder, was the Great Chief of the Ancient Oriental Order of Humility. The Grand Lodge of this Order is at Red Dog, and since the settlement of the question of jurisdiction with the San Francisco [lodge], Mr. Garber’s standing has never been questioned. NEW FLUME.—A new flume has been built from the East Broad street bridge in Deer Creek for the purpose of conveying the waters of the creek to Stiles’ mill. Workmen were engaged yesterday in damming the creek in order to raise the water to the mouth of the flume. Property For Sale. A GOOD HOMESTEAD—consisting of a Dwelling house and a fine lot situated in a pleasant part of the town. The House contains seven rooms and there is an excellent well of water on the premises. The property will be sold very cheap. For further particulars enquire of H. L. GOVE, Boulder Street.
