NEVADA GAZETTE NOVEMBER 11, 13, 14, 1865 545 PERSONAL.—E. Frank Morse, an old resident of this county, returned recently from Reese River, where he has spent the past Summer and a part of the Fall. He brings with him various specimens from the mines of that region, of the resources of which he speaks with great enthusiasm. He will return in a few days. COUNTY COURT.—The Grand Jury came into Court yesterday afternoon, having found indictments as follows: James Finnegan, for assault with deadly weapon; Chauncy Tyrrill [sic], petit larceny; William Moore, petit larceny. The Court adjourned until four o’clock this afternoon. IN TOWN.—Chief Burke and officers Deal and Rice, of Sacramento, were in town yesterday, to give their evidence before the Grand Jury, in the La Porte robbery case. BRASS BAND.—The Washington Brass Band came down from that place yesterday, for the purpose of taking part in the military exercise at the race course to-day. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1865 INDECENT PUBLICATION.—A publication of this character has lately obtained quite an extensive circulation in this vicinity—a sad commentary on the depraved literary taste of many of our citizens. It was all very well with Nevadans, as long as the villainous manufacturer and retailer of village scandal remained in Grass Valley. They subscribed for the paper, and were delighted with the “good” things they were getting on their friends at the Valley. The “correspondent” very naturally concluded that where such an appetite for his style of literature was manifest, he would find a rich field for investigation. The consequence is that he is now in our midst, and many of the patrons of the scandal-monger are not so well pleased with the publication as formerly. Some even talk of having the carrier indicted. This is right, and as the Grand Jury is now in session it is just the time to “get after him;” and it is believed that the Jury by a little investigation might ascertain the character of the publication. SWISS BELL RINGERS.—This celebrated troupe of artists gives a performance at the Nevada Theater this evening. The company was organized some twenty years ago, under the management of W. B. and E. E. Blaisdell, in Lancashire, England, and have performed since then in all the principal cities of the old and new world, with unvarying success. The principal performers, beside the Messrs. Blaisdell, the originators of bell music, are Madam Julia Blaisdell, solo harpist; Herr Frederick Buch, solo violinist and solo echo bugle; Herr Sophron Fiedler, solo oboe and violin; Mr. Frank Moore, solo flutist and guitarist, and Miss Clara, whose forte is ballad singing and comical songs. The bell music, in which the whole company participate, is rare and singular, and must be heard to be appreciated. The performance will be for one night only. INJURED.—Mrs. McHenry was quite severely injured on Saturday evening, by being thrown from a horse. She was riding down Main street on a gallop, and as the horse got opposite Place’s stable he dodged in, throwing Mrs. McHenry off, and spraining her ankle so severely that she was unable to walk. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1865 THE LATE ELECTIONS.—The recent elections in some of the most populous Eastern States, must have convinced thoughtful politicians that no party under the name of Democrat can hope to be successful, at least for many years to come. Men entertaining discordant and diametrically opposite
