We had the pleasure of a visit yesterday from that great and good man, Bishop Whitaker. He has been in Eureka several days, visiting his numerous friends. Ho will preach to-day at the Episcopal Church, and will leave on Monday morning for his home at Virginia City, and the best wishes of our people go with him. A Fine Oun. Cyrus Horn, Jr., yesterday allowed us a very fine double-barrelled gun that he l»aa Just received from the East. We are not much of a judge of shooting arms, but from the general appearance of the piece, we would pronounce it first-class. The cost price of the gun will lie nothing, com pared with the coat of boot leather to catch the game in this sagebrush country.* Plieon Nhuotliiv anil Foot Hare. The lovers of sport will bear in mind that the pigeon shooting matches and foot race como off to-day, on the road between ltuby Hill and Eureka. Tbore are two matches already made up, for $100 each.

A FEAT 1'RE OF THE FOI BTH. The Car of State In response to an invitation from the Fourth of July Committee of Arrange ments, a bright, happy and light-hearted crowd of little girls assembled at the school-house yesterday afternoon. The purpose of the meeting was to elect a Goddess of Liberty and a representative of each State to appear in the procession. The name of each little one was written on a slip of paper and deposited in a hat, and Miss Gracie Pardy assumed the duty of taking them out. The States were also written In a similar manner, and as the little one’s name was selected the State drawn at the same time was given to her. Twelve names of the larger girls were se lected for the character of the Goddess of Liberty, and Miss Maggie Wet he red was the fortunate young lady of that number. The following is a list of the misses and the States they are to represent: Goddess of Liberty, Maggie Wi thered; M innie Schwamb, Maine; Clara Mc Ewen, New Hampshire; Tillie Stelcr, Ver mont; Mary Keene, Massachusetts; Gertie Wilson, Connecticut; Flor nee S to well, Rhode Island} Hattie Schneider, New York; Emma Bartholomew, Pennsylvania; Mary Ranft, Delaware; Louise Loschen kolil, New Jersey; Edith Moore, Maryland; Emma Hurley, Virginia; Lulu McCartney, North Carolina; Gracie Pardy, Soutli Car olina; Amelia Abrigo, Georgia; Lena Es panoza, Florida; May Moore, Alabama; Winnie Yowell, Mississippi; Esther Lev enthal, Tennessee; Annie Nichols, Ken tucky; Sophia Cronan, Louisiana; Gertie McGeary, Texas; Georgie Russell, Arkan sas; Emma L'Bar, Missouri; Bertha Fiske, Ohio; Myra Hopkins, Indiana; Etta Gal lagher.

Wc copy the following in relation to thiB new enU rprise from the White Pine Xews of yesterday: This furnace lias now been running about 11 days, and in that time lias turned out 40 tons of bullion. No trouble has been experienced since the fur nace has been fired up, and Mr. Lyman, the Company’s manager here, informs us that in running capacity the? furnace is improving daily, having turned out 7.£>00 pounds of bullion in the past 24 hours. The Company has just levied an assess ment of 25 cents per share on their capital stock, and with this fund and the proceeds of the present run, they propone to carry on permanent operations in smelting and mining in this locality. We are pb used to see tiiat the Company is fast recovering from the ell'ccts of former mismanagement, and see no reason why, with prudent man agement, its future should not b- prosper ous. Will he Held. Much feeling was exhibited here last night and this moruing by som: of our best men in Carson, says the Tribune, con cerning the ignoring of a hill of indict ment against Clark, the killer of young Adams, and it was proposed to get up a petition to Judge Wright (which, by the way, would have received a thousand or more signatures) to request him to hold Clark over to await the action of another Grand Jury. We are enabled to set the minds of our fellow citizens at rest, by stating that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, such will l>c the action of the Judge. We. of Carson, are a law-abiding people, and it i* to be hoped that confi dence enough in the good judgment of Judge Wright is felt to believe that he will not act contrary to the expressed senti ments of the people. We believe the law will take it* proper course. Fourth of July. In balloting for seats on the Car of State yesterday, it was discovered by the Com mittee that there wore more applicants than the car could possibly accommodate, and the Committee request that the citizens of Ruby Hill prepare a car for the children from that place. The Committee author ize us to say that the sum of $50 to apply to that purpose will be raised lu re, outside of the funds now on hand. This sum is generously promised to the Committee by three or four public-spirited gentlemen, who witnessed the ball >ting yesterday, and observed the joy of the lucky ones who drew seats, and it is hoped that the citizens of Ruby Hill will make an effort to prepare n. car. --• f oot Race To-day. The most exciting foot race that has ever been run in the State will come off at one o'clock to-day, at the track near the grave yard. The contestants are James C’anavan, who is said to bo the fastest one hundred yard man on the coast, and J. U. Saunders, the tlyer who beat Worn muck at Tuscan>ra two weeks ago to-day. The stakes aro $300 a side, and the distance one hundred ya« ds. Can a van is a well known foot racer, but many believe that the Tuscarora man, al though comparatively unknown, will hold him a close game if he does not get away with the business. Knturiliiy Night. Our streets last night presented a lively appearance. Being Saturday night, the close of the week’s work brought into town a great many persons on business and pleasure bent, and a numerous crowd swarmed on the sidewalks and made busi ness pretty fair for the many stores and saloons. The scene presented was quite animated and cheering to old residents, while a stranger would infer quite readily that ours is a prosperous community. Not Till* Mnuhittt«i:i. The Austin Reveille says that the dis patch from Han Francisco, in reference to a suit commenced against the Manhattan Silver Mining Company, has no connec tion with the corporation of that name operating in Austin. At headquarters here nothing is known of the plaintiffs or the suit, no persons of those names being interested in this Manhattan Company, so far as is known. -—— Her Wish Orntllieil. An Austin woman got mad at her hus band and casually remarked to him : “I wish I could see you on your bier, you infamous wretch.” He then went down town and got drunk as a lord, and when be went homo he was greeted by his wife with, “Drunk again, you brute,” “No, my d-d-dear; only on my b-b-bew# is yer (•■fjrwiM • vieh to tee toe." THE CHEAT SI I.Vi;II KIN'U. How Janie* O. Fair Deramc One of the Wealthiest Men In the World. We find the following ridiculous item in one of our Eastern exchanges: Thero is a man alive at this present moment, who, if he so minded, could give his daughter a marriage portion of $150,000,000. lie would then have about $50,000,000 left for himself. He lives half way up a mountain side in Nevada, and his daughter lives with him. Heven years ago he was a poor man; to-day he is the silver king of America. He has dug $200,000,000 worth of silver out of the hill ho is living on, and has about $200,000,000 more yet to dig. If be lives throe ye*rs longer he will be th - rich est man in the world. His name is James Fair, and ho is the manager, superinten dent. chief partner, and principal share holder in the Consolidated Virginia and California silver mines, known to men as the “big bonanzas.” He has an army of men toiling for him day and night, down in the very depths of the earth, digging, picking, blasting and crashing a thousand tons of rock every 24 hours. Ho works as hard as any man of them. The one who, by his own unaided exertions, can rise to such marvelous wealth in so short a time, is worth knowing something about. It is worth while to hear how such a fabulous fortune can be accumulated. MINTXU NOTES. The Albion Company yesterday struck rock showing oxyde of lead in their shaft, indicating a close proximity to the ledge. Superin ten dent Slioenbar, of the Silver ado mines, yesterday showed us re turns from the Rescue mine, taken from the 375 foot level, which assayed $405.28. The Santa Clara mine, situated near the Eureka Tunnel, will resume work next week. This mine has yielded some excel j lent ore. The Alexandria mine and tunnel, which crosses the Eureka Tunnel at right angles, is now drifting in a south-easterly direc tion, and taking out some excellent ore. The Pride of the West mine, situated in a direct line south from the Jackson mine, has struck a good body of ore in sinking in their shaft. From Superintendent Atchison, who yesterday visited the Prospect Mountain Tunnel Company’s works, situated on the west side of Prospect Mountain, we learn that the tunnel is in C50 feet. fornia mines is bo intense that the con sumption of ice is at the rate of 90 pounds per day to each man. The heat at this time is greater than heretofore in the his tory of the mines. The Comstock. Mechanics’ Union and the mining superintendents have come to an understanding on the question of wages. The terms of the agreement are not yet made public, but it is understood the men get all they asked. Bonanza shipments so far on June ac count are $90,835 for On. Virginia, and $270,445 79 for California. The total bul lion yield of the bonanza mines to date amounts to $99,701,709 80. Before the end of the present fiscal month the yield will have exceeded $100,000,000. Senator Jones, whose income is only $15,004) a day. is jealous of Mackay, who revels in $35,000 daily. Jones say's that ho long as such monopolists as Mackay hold California in their grasp, there is no chance for a man of moderate means, and he thinks of joining the commune. ----- I'M K DI HT. The San Francisco Board of Brokers ad journed yesterday for the purpose of taking a week's vacation. Business will not be resumed until Monday July 8th. In Virginia City the boys have started after the dogs, for the purpose of raising Fourth of July pocket money. Here it is different, they go for bottles and tin cans. Deputy Recorder Horn has just received some hound volumes of the Sentinel from San Francisco, where he had sent them to 1 o bound, so as to be preserved for future reference. The veterans of the Mexican war, as also those who participated in the* late war, are invited by advertisement in to-day’s issue to participate in the celebration on the Fourth of July. A place will be assigned them in th<* line by the Committee of Ar rangements.

Sheriff Raum left with his prisoners for Carson this morning. Mrs. Della Clifford came as far as this place on the same-stage. The Wrestling lonrnniueiit. In our advertising columns will be found the announcement of grand wrest ling matches, to bo held on the 4th and 5th days of July at Murphy’s corral. There arc five prizes offered, which aggregate $210. The wrestling will be conducted in the Cornish style, anil Messrs. Haskins and Northey guarantee that eve ry thing shall bo fair and above board. Much amusement is anticipated. From Tom I*«Suite. Messrs. Sperry, Coburn, Faber and Rus sell came in from Tern Pahuto Mining District last evening. The three first named gentlemen are from Chicago hav ing visited the district with a view to ex am ing mining property. We understand they are favorably impressed with the mines they examined, and expect to soon return to Nevada, after making their re ports. Incorporated.

Simpson and John G. Blake. G. M. Totten, President of the Board of Trustees; L. L. Lockwood, Secretary and Treasurer; John Sheen bar, General Manager. Heap Nedlrlue Talk. A good-natured crowd, of perhaps two hundred persons, were congregated last night at Hank Knight’s corner, listening to the comic lecture and songs of the man who sells patent medicine. It makes lots of fun for the boys, aud Wings a fewshefc els into the pockets of the vendor. Rl B1 HILL ftCHOOL REPORT.

The following favorable showing to tho management of the Richmond Company, at this place, we copy from the London Mining Journal of a recent date: The Richmond Shareholders’ Commit tee’s report (which is, to a great extent, neutralized, if not entirely answered, by that of the directors) contains a disheart ening statement as to the way in which the mine has been managed, and some very strong observations concerning Mr. Pro bert. The report has as vet been circulated among the shareholders only, but tho contents of it are fully discussed in tlio letter of a sharehold er—Mr. W. Gabbott—published in the Supplement. The mine has already re turned 4£ Us. Gd. dividends upon each 5£ share, or 18s. 3'id. in 1£ upon the entire capital invested, the mine being at the present time in good condition. This is more than can be said of any other Anglo American mine, except Sierra Buttes, which has returned 19s. in 1£. No other mine of this class has returned more than a few shillings— really 2s, or 8s. in 1£, if they have entered the dividend list at all— and the shareholders should be cautious not to “improve” the management so ef fectually as to deprive themselves of future dividends altogether. It would uot be the first time that such a result has been achieved. Moreover, it should not be for gotten that the mine did not yield profits previously to Mr. Probert taking control; that the dividends have been fairly regular ever since, and that the mine is now earn ing (taking the last six months’working to estimate upon), over £210,000 a year, or about 78 per cent, per annum profit upon the entire capital of the concern. These ! are a few of the proofs of Mr. Probert’s in capacity. Kotllf Gusli. Mighcls, of the Carson Appeal, says tha^ a Fourth of July without soda water is like an oyster without vinegar, an egg without salt, a kiss without a mustache. If there is in reality such a thing as gush of the patriotic sort, it is the effervescent gush ing of the syrup of our sires as it sizzles forth from the down discharging vent of a soda fountain. Willis, tearing asunder the stoutest ties of affection, abandoned the soda fountain of his youth, leaving it in Thaxtcr’s hands. There it stands; there it squirts! My young friend, you of the love which lodges in Arabella’s soft and throb bing heart, do not forget that fountain! Go to it; trust in it; patronize it; bid it a brief good bye, and then fetch yourself and your dear, nose-bctinged darling back to it again, and give her another treat. Evergreen* for the Fourth. Several wagon loads of pine and cedar trees and boughs have been brought into town, to be used in decorating the differ ent public buildings, and also the Car of State on the coming Fourth. As the time draws nearer, considerable enthusiasm is being aroused among our citizens, apd everything is now promising for a celebra tion that will do credit to our town. fliiiacscMimoiiic Funeral. Our citizens may not generally be aware that the Chinese in our midst have a lodge of the Masonic fraternity, yet such is the case. We aro not conversant with their workings at burials, but an opportunity will be afforded to see it this afternoon, as there will be a funeral of a member who died yesterdav. We learn that he will be buried with the honors. Election of Officer*. At a regular meeting of Mountain Lodge No. 27, I. O. 0. F., held at their hall last evening, the following officers were elected for the ensuing term, commencing July 1st, aud ending December 1, 1878 : W. J. Smith, N. G.; It. M. Beatty, V. G.; J. Vanderlicth, Treasurer. II. B. McKee, B, J. Turner and C. Ferraris, Trustees. Tlic Number. We aro requested to announce that the winning number of the flag presented to the Convent of “Onr Lady of Lourdes,” is one thousand eight hundred and twenty two. ^ Richmond Bullion. Wells, Fargo A Co. made the following shipment of bullion for the Richmond Company this morning: Nine dore bars, valued at $20,769 52. Voter*. Toko Notice. The Registry Books of Eureka precinct will be opened at Justice Cromer’s office to-morrow. Voters will govern themselves accordingly. DOWYEYYIELE. A Mew Nialnff District. From Mr. D. C. Clark, a leading mer chant of Pioche, and on old r' oidcnt of this State, we have learnt'1 <onw interesting news concerning the mines at Downey villo. situated in Nyo county, about 20 miles west of lone. Mr. Clark lias just returned from there, having taken it in while on an extensive tour throughout the southwest ern part of the State, lie describes the mines as lying in the low foot-hills of the Mammoth range of mountains, and on the western slope, directly on the old road leading from lone to Walker’s river, where : they have bet n passed over by prospectors cor tinnously during the past 14years. The ores are rich and principally carbonate in character, and lie in a limestone formation. The Downey Brothers were the discover ers. and now have located in nearly a compact body, about one hundred and twenty-five acres, and wherever they have sunk through the overlying cap-rock, they have struck one of the same rich character that was first found at the point of discovery, which was the only place where the ore body came to the surface in croppings. One shaft has been sunk to a depth of over 200 feet, which shows good ore the entire distance, and wherever drifts have been run from it. A furnace will com mence running on the first of the coming month, and good results are confidently looked for. Mr. Clark describes it as be ing the most astonishing ore body he has ever seen, and thinks the camp lias a bril liant future, although it is quite dull at present, as nothing has yet been produced.

All the societies in Eureka and the county are invited to take part in the Fourth of July parade. If any have been overlooked by Grand Marshal Connor, he hopes they will consider themselves in vited by this general notice. LATEST FROM THE FF ,r«T. [From the Silver State of the 27th.] C. A. Monroe arrived from White Horse last evening, having made the trip in less than thirty-six hours. He says there are sixty white men now fortified at that place, all armed, some with breech-loaders and others with ordinary rifles and shot guns. They have about 500 horses on the mead ows, ami a guard of ten men out all the time. There is no longer any doubts of the murder of Dixon and Hickinson, and the burning of William Smitli and his son by the Indians. One of Nacbcs’ Piutes es caped from the hostile* last Saturday west of Stein Mountain. He says that on Sun day morning while crossing the mountain he saw two “ dusts,” which were some dis tance apart when he first noticed them get together, and he thinks they were made by soldiers and Indians. The general impres sion among men acquainted with the coun try is that the skirmish between Bernard’s troops and the hostiles on Sunday was where the Indian saw the “dusts” get to gether, instead of on Curry Creek, as at first reported. This was about G5 miles west of White Horse. Monroe says that fresh Indian signs have been seen near White Horse, and an attempt has been made by the Indians to run olf the horses. The boys at the ranch do not intend to attack the Indians should they appear in force, but they are determined to defend their lives and property to the last. Chief Naches is almost idolized by the settlers, who are showering presents on him for sav ing their lives. Devine Todhunter gave him a fine horse. Con. Ryan gave him a bridle and saddle. John Dixon presented him a rifle worth $60, J. F. Broyn has given him a horse, and Frank Burns and others have promised him more horses. He is the happiest Indian in the United States, and feels that his services have been appreciated by the whites. Sweet Ranch Butter.
