NEVADA GAZETTE MARCH 1 & 2, 1866 55
The mine has been promising very richly, and, a short time ago, ti gave unmistakable evidence of
richness.
MAIL FAILURE.—From some cause, the newspaper mail from Sacramento was not received at the
Nevada Postoffice yesterday. We did not learn the cause of the detention, but mail failures have been quite
common of late.
SOCIAL.—Messrs. Sullivan & Becket, teachers of the dancing school at Temperance Hall, give a
dancing party at the Hall this evening. Tickets of admission $1 50.
FRIDAY, MARCH 2, 1866
MARRIED. In this city, February 28th [?], by John Kendall, J.P., JOHN H. HAMILTON and LOUISA
B. MEADE, both of Nevada.
REV. G. B. TAYLOR.—This gentleman publishes a card in the Transcript, in which he accuses
of purposely misrepresenting his remarks, in a remark entitled “Temperance and Politics.” We did
not pretend to give his exact words, but said he referred to the President’s late “maudlin message” as
having been written under the influence of liquor. Taylor says he referred to the “maudlin speech” of the
President, made on the 22d, and that he believed the President was under the influence of liquor at the
time. We are credible informed by those who heard Taylor, that he said “message,” though he may have
intended to say “speech.” It is a matter of no consequence, however, whether he had reference to the
speech or the message; for the one exhibits no more evidence of being the production of a drunken brain
that the other. .. .
GRASS VALLEY MINSTRELS.—This company of amateur performers purpose giving an
entertainment at the Theater in this place, to-morrow evening. The performance of these artistes took
well at Grass Valley, and on their second appearances they had a crowded house. In their entertainment
here they will be assisted by a number of our townsmen, and several original productions by local authors
will be put upon the stage.
FREEMEN’S AID SOCIETY.—L L. Alexander, an agent of the Freedman’s aid Society of
this State, arrived in town yesterday, and proposes to organize a Branch Society in Nevada. For that
purpose, a meeting will be held on next Tuesday evening, when the objects of the institution will be fully
explained.
RAINFALL.—The amount of rain that fell at this place, during the showery weather of the past few
days, was sixty-two hundredths of an inch. This makes the rainfall of February 5.59 inches, and of the
season 39.92 inches.
PAPER AT SUMMIT CITY.—E. B. Boust, of the Dutch Flat Enquirer, has made arrangements for
starting a paper at Summit City. The first number will be issued about the first of April. It is to be called
the “Reveille.”
IONE MINE.—The new mill recently erected on the Ione mine, near Grass Valley, by Messrs.
Curtis & Hunt, is completed, and was to have been started by yesterday.
