Sights and Incidents frown Gras Valley, Cal., to Austin, Nevada. Virginia City, Nevada, March 30, '66. FRIEND RAMBO :—The rest of our journey was very wearisome and monoto nous,the nearer we approached Virginia City the thinner became the forest. My old friend "sage brush," who warmed.me by many a camp file on the Platte river, in southern Utah and on the alkali deierts of Arizonia, renewed my acquaintance on the road, presenting the same gnarled, briar-covered twigs, in gathering which, I have more than once bled my hands. Down a steep grade of twenty miles, rumbling over the frozen ground with the sun-beams that run like molten bull ion from the hills behind, warming and thawing into animation the tossed traveler that woos sleep but is jilted with a rap on the head from the crazy vehicle; around a newly carved bank which the stage spins, and across a rickety bridge, Virginia, the Golconda of the Pacific, spreads out her map of hills,stores - ,mining cabins and yawning shafts. Mt. Davidson, at whose base the Gould & Curry, Ophir, Savage and North Comstock leads have thousands of miners exploring, and on whose precipitate side the city itself is built, seems like a beleagurecl fortress of adamant., before whose walls the besieg ing array of adventurers have set down, awaiting, not in field tents, but in sub stantial houses,that hour of dire necessity, as come it must, when this grim miser of mountain treasures shall he forced into terms and surrender to stock-holders and capitalists every ingot of silver,every grain of gold, the dross of sulphurets,anything of chemical or intrinsic value tha't tends to make up big dividends or restore the city to its proper prestige in the exciting times of Washoe in 1863. The absence of any vegetation, for there is not a tree within leagues of the place,not a hundred feet of grass in the town or around it,gives it such a lost,unuatural story appearance that phices of amusement or recreation can never make up. :We have no agri cultural thi=s or liortieur,trtral :thews; not a vegetalile;tiett.asheaCek-itheUtorsus took • Toitaii•AXii i73fri;:ili"iii - etef t . en • competition, - in.riVal-gardeds or remind one of prolific cereals ; huge mellow fruit and plethoric pumpkins of the thrifty eastern farmer. Nor are we better of with manu factures. They too like the cold weather and the agricultural interest are at zero. Shut up in this barren wasse of sage-brush and silver, hemmed in-by mountains and immured in snows, Virginia is the most dependant city in America. The 'means of sustaining life, food, clothing, capital, all, she owes to California. Every article of consumption or utility, from a match or a pin to a steam engine or piano: from a pound of flour to epicurean luxuries she transports over the mountains in wagons. The estimate of the freighting trade alone of 1863 would make a self sustaining, home producing yankee shud der or invest his surplus means in the Central Pacific R. R. I quote freight for that year to the amount of seventeen millions of dollars for freight alone, inde pendently of the value of the goods.— Nothing reaches this town for which we are not indebted to that trans-alpine store house, California. I withdraw some of the exclusiveness of this sweeping state ment, when t except babies born in the Nevada. They are said to be a long time coming, but as I know of no baby ranches in California for the purpose of raising them and supplying our market, I pi'esume they dont conic from over the mountains. Lively times have almost abandoned the place; capital has been "swamped" in sinking shafts and tunnel ing to very little purpose. The Gould & Curry with the finest mill and shaft in the world, costing two millions is the only lead that pays a dividend. Very few take out sufficient rock to meet ex penses. Heavy assessments to the foot levied every month freeze a stock-holder out of thousands, pass him in the end throegh the delinquent list and ruin en sues. The place is "dead." It is only a galvanized corpse; where slim capital and Ifalse statements grow weary of their nee. romancy, the dead will be deserted with out the ceremony of wake or burial. I expect to start on Monday next for Austin Reese River mining country—some two hundred miles from here by stage. I will write in a few days and inform you defin itely of my projects and post you on mat ters of interest along the route. Reese River is promising and New York capital ists have dipped in heavily there encour aged by the favorable bend of General Rosecranz' divining rod. So there is money there,must be expended, whether the ledges pay or not. Positive assurane has reached this place that good surface diggings have been struck in Montana. The rush to that country promises to he heavy in the spring. - J. A. COMERFORD. [WHOLE NUMBER 1,922. Squeezing Hands. What an immense difference it makes who squeezes one's hand! A lady may twine her arm around your waste, press' a kiss on your brow, or hold your hands in her's, toy with your fingers to her heart's content, but you are perfectly calm and collected, and experience no unusual sensation, either disagreeable or otherwise. Perchance a gentleman who' you dislike or feel slightly acquainted with ventures to press your hand; you: snatch it quickly away, the indignant blood mounts to your forehead, and with flashing eyes you "wonder how the im pertinent fellow dares do such a thing." Rather an antiquated. specimen of hu manity squeezes your hand; you, feel mortified for-yourself, and mortified that a man of his years should make a fool of himself; that he should think you can really like such. contrasts; and above all that he believes it possible that you can like him. You are vexed at what he has done,and determined that another oppor tunity shall never be offered him of doing it again. To place your hand confidently in, that of an accepted, acknowledged lover, you are not at all excited or con fused; you have ceased blushing con tinually in his presence; you experience a sort of quiet happiness, a "little heaven upon earth" sort of feeling; you are per fectly satisfied with everything in this terrestrial world—especially your lover and yourself;and yet withal it is a foolish thing. You sit with his arm twined around you—that manly arm, that is to support you through life; a soft, rosy, happy tint suffuses your face as your hands is clasped in his. Ah it is a bliss ful, foolish feeling. Bur let some one whom you like very much—not an ac quainted lover, but one who may be, per haps, ono of these days—gently enclose your hand in his own, what a strange, wild,joyful,painfut feeling thrills through your veins, rushes to your finger ends! Your heart goes bump ! bump ! Surely you think, he must hear it throbbing.— , For the life of you you annot speak.

With downcast eyes and blush ing cheek you let the little hand, this first earnest of "things to come," thrilling and throbbing with this new ecstatic emotion, remain all trembling in its rest ing place. . e A Noble Lady. A short time ago, as a train of cars was approaching the suspension bridge, near Niagara the conductor found a young man who could not pay' his fare. Tho' poor fellow was evidently in the last stages of consumption; and emaciated to skeletonic proportions. He sat by him self, and his eyes were red as though he had been weeping; but the laws of the company could not be transgressed,and he must leave the train. Not a person spok or moved as the conductor led him from his seat, all shivering with fear: but just as he reached the door, a beautiful girl aros e from her seat,and with bright, sparkling eyes demanded the amount charged for the poor invalid. The con ductor said eight dollars, whereupon the young and noble girl took that from her purse,and kindly led the sick youth back to his seat. The action put to shame several men who had witnessed it, and they offered to "pay half, but the whole souled woman indignantly refused their assistance. When the train arrived at 41bany, the young protectress gave the invalid money enough to keep him over night in that city, and sent him to his friends the next morning. Two-thirds of the women of the world would suffer by comparison with her. The man who gets that noble girl for a wife will be a sub ject of admissible envy. —Wealth makes incompatibility of temper tolerable. Theodore Lee, of Philadelphia, misused his wife until she was driven to desert him. Since then her father has died, leaving her some three hundred thousand dollars Leo brings suit now to force her to come home again, signifying his willingness "to live with her again, and use her as a good husband ought to do." —Two gentlemen have turned up who have money enough. Mr. Howe, in ventor of a sewing machine,is one of them. The invention netted him 82.000,000, and he will not apply for an ostention of the patent as he has "money enough."— The other gentleman is Mayor of Brook lyn. He has vetoed an ordinance in creasing his salary, as he has money enough of his own." Happy men —Brigham Young's Oldest Son is named "Joe." He has traveled in Eu rope, smokes, chews, gets drunk, swears, preaches the gospel, has three wives whom he whirs and otherwise shamefully abuses, and is a good Mormon, and is full fellowship of the church..
