Mrs. Holla Z. Bj»e nccr."
This twist thrilling liarrativo of facts
(with some fiction) is now ready for sub
scribers. It is a Hook that all .should
read. It embodies a great deal of
and important history, with something of
the attractive style of Romance. A
olianee will hoon be given to those wish
iog to purchase this interesting Hook -
Mr. Thomas Duncan, »ho is the autho
rized agent for this, county, is now entered
upon the canvass for subscriptions. We
recommend him to the patronage of. all
lovers of valuable reading.
Cholera,
"Prepare for War in time of Peace"—
this dreadful disease seems to prevailing
to some extent in our Eastern Cities,aud
it is not at all improbable, that wo may
he visited this year with that alurwing
epidemic.
In view of this probability, it becomes
our citizens to take all possible precau
tion in res[>e£t to diet aud habits of liv
ing, as well as to 111 akcpreparation against
the disease by procuring medicine* to
meet the rery firtl indications, as the do-
Jay in finding a physician, and procuring
the medicine afterward, may many times
lie fatal delay.
When the Cholera visited this locality
a number of years ago, our professional
.duties brought us immediately into con
tact with it, aud our labors were incos
sant during the whole time, and wo are
fully satisfied that this kind of delay was
the cause of many deaths.
We had endeavored to be posted ou i
tho best possible method of cure ofChol- j
era before that time, and tried tojlcarn by
.experience during its prevalence, and
h: vc ever since been waking observa
tions of all the different modes and pre
scriptions recommended and have come
to this conclusion :
That the Jirtt indication* of Cholera
jjricld quite as roadily to appropriate med
ieinc as do those of any other disease.
Voiriting and diarrhoea being the Jimt
rymptom* , they are met most effectually
by the following prescription, which can
be filled at any Drug-store, and should be
kept on hand by every fauiily during the
Cholera season, "to wit.equal parts
x>f Tincts. Camphor, Opium, Kino, Cut
£chu, and Xanthoxylin,—Dose, from hajf
to a tcaspoonful a» often as the evacua
tions occur—and so until checked, or
until a physician arrives.
We would state further, that in all ca- j
sen the persous attacked, should lie down
.at once, and take entire rest from the
very beginning of the disease.
The above is from tlie very practical
.experience of Dr. 01dshu<e of Pittsburgh,
with whom many of o«r readers are per
sonally acquainted, and kuow hitu to be
H geutleman of skill aud ability in every
disease with which he grapples.

On Wednesday and Thursday, Ist and
2nd inst., the citizens of our town had
the ploasurc of witnessing a weH-contest
'ed game of Rasc-15all, played between
the first nino- of the HIAWATHA Hase
Hall Club of Kittanuiug, and the KEY- |
STONE Hase-Rall (,'lub, of Rutler, on the j
grounds of the latter, Wednesday was )
the day appointed for the game, but at
the conclusion of ihe second inning, time
was called and on account of the inclein !
cncy of the weather, the game wr.s post
poned until Thursday morning at 8 o'-
clock. Notwithstanding the severe rain
of Wednesday, TLR: fair sex was well rep
resented ou the field during the progress
of the game, and sturdily refused to leave
until the play was stopped.
On Thursday uiorniugatan early hoar;
groups of ladies and gentlemen, girls aud i
boys could be seen wending their way
toward the play-grounds, some in car
riages, some on horses— many by that
popular mode of conveyance, yelepped
"on foot," and by the time play began T
the number of spectators exceeded that
of the previous evening. U|> tothc sth in
ning Ihe KEYSTONE managed to keep
ahead aud uid some fine fielding and bat
ting, but after that they seemed to lose
spirit, and the IIIAWATII.V steadily gain
ed uutil tin last, when they were 20
scores ahead. The fielding and batting
on both (tides was splendid and the game
throughout was well-contested. Every
body exprescd themselves well pleased,
the players parted satisfied they had
found in each other " foeiuen worthy of
THEIR steel." The following is the score .

Lrltrr from Hon. Huui'l A. I'nr-
VIHIICC IU Hon. Cowan.
To Hon Edgar Cowan :
As a member of the National Union
Executive (•inimitt.ee, deriving my au
thority from the Union National Conven
tion of Baltimore of the 7tli of June,
1804, I take the liberty of addressing
you in reference to the forthcoming Phil-
I adelphia Convention of the 1 -till of Au
| gust next.
The Committee of which I am a mem
ber, as is generally conceded, alone pns
• .IS'CS the power between Presidential
' Nominations. of calling conventions to
meet the emergencies of tile Union par
| ty, unless the people, the acknowledged
source of all poaver, should in their pri
mary meetings, assume THE control th«m
selves.
No such cvi lence of any popular de
monstration within ihe Union party hav
ing ct 1110 to my notice, speaking with the j
authority of a member of the National
Union Kxecutive Committer, and cspec
ially so far as Pennsylvania is concerned
and as her especial delegatn and repre
sentative, I repudiate the Convention of
the 14IH of Augustas being called with
out authority from the Union party or
any of its delegated agencies.
I address you because tho Convention
of tho 11th of August is evidently as
sembling under the auspices of President
Johnson, yourself, Senator Doolittle,
See'y Seward and others, and because
you are most prominent in connection
with its call. The call as originally made,
purports to be fur a Union Cshvention,
but as the delegates are being selected
and anuounccd, tho fact is most glarings
ly disclosed that Pendleton, Vallandig
liain and that class of men are to bo the
I FIJE leaders, and as their course in the
Chicago Convention led directly to dis
union by proposing to withdraw our ar
aiies and give Jeff. Davis his own way, I j
cannot but regard the forthcoming Con- j
vention as a re assembling of the China- '
go body, with a large addition of rebels,
who, in 18(31, were engaged in lighting
Sherman, and on that account could uot j
make it convenient to attend at Chicago, j
Pendleton having declared that whilst j
in Congress ho had uot vote a sioglo ;
duljar to put dtiwa the rebellion, and
Vallandigham, when in Jeff. Davis* do
minims having counselled the confeder
ates to hold out another year and the
North would yield—how can you and the
President co-operate with such mon ; re- j
ceivo them and confer with them, and
monstrous to think of how can you and i
the President take couusel from Vallan- |
dighaui whom the mar'yred Lincoln ban- :
ished, uot ouly from his own, but froui
the prcsoncc of all loyal ojen 1
Upon what principle consistent with
loyal views ilo you invite to this Union
Convention the rebels of eleven States, j
who fought for four long years against ,
the Union, and have not as yet given any
evidence of loyolty to, or affection lor, ;
the natiijial flag.
Asa delegate to the Baltiinero Convert'!
lion in 1861. I voted for Presideut Joht- l
son for the Vice Presidency against the j
remonstrances of such uieo as Tnad. 1
Stevens, Gen Cameron and others. I j
feel deeply mortified that their predic
tions of his infidelity, which then 1 be
lieved groundless, have been fulfilled.
The sufferings which lie had endured i
nt the hands of rebels, and his resistance j
and stern denunciation of treason, gave ;
me the most positive assurance that if j
the government should devolve upon him
it would be so administered that Ua ion- i
ism and loyalty would have no cause for
humiliation and shame.
i I living, as an original friend, watch-'
ed his cour.-e'witli an earnest desire to
have it approved, 1 l'jlt that I" ..coupied
i a relation to him which enabled me to
| take an impartial view ol his adiniuistra- j
j tiou. His nntislavery amendment as
sumption of our, and nspudiatlon Iff the
' debt, his theory that the rebel States
were never out of the Union; his repeat
ed declarations that none but loyal men'
should rule; his view of representation,
that it should bo ba»ed upon sufirage pop
illation, —all met with uiy approval, and
with, as I believe, tho general approval
|of the Union party. And when Con-
I gress proposed their resolutions on Re
onstructnm, embodying thee great fun
damental principles, it was confidently
1 expected that you and tho President
j would at once approve and harmonize in
future action. The prestige of tho Pres
ident's favor of the measure would have
at once brought tho rebol States to terms,
and doubtless within a year every ono of
them would have accepted and cheerful
ly performed the conditions. Instead of
this, I regret that you and the President
have thought proper to insist upon the
establishment of a rule which would eu
i title "Jeff. Davis, Breckinridge, Mason i
and Slidcll to resume their seats in the
Senate of tho United States, and there,
some of them but fresh from the battle
field, where tlicy have been beaten, to
take part in the enactment of laws for a
nation llicy tried to destroy. A united
public sentiment forbids this. Justiceto
tho loyal living and to tho memory of
the loyal dead forbi 1 it, an 1 you anil the
President, with all the patronage you I
possess, cannot demoralize enough of
Union men to effect your purpose. See
where your and the President's test ot
loyalty has brought you right into the
arms of rebels of the rankest kind. Your
Convention has not yet assembled, and
it may not yet be too late for you to re
tract.
No man, no matter how high a position
he may occupy, should feel ashamed to
conform his act oi to tho wishes ot tho
people who conferred upon him the trust
he holds.
You and the President received yours
from loyal men north and south and not
from tho Vallindighatns, l'ondletons,
Woods, Seymours, Reeds, and others like
them and as high minded, honorable men
finding you have made a mistake, eon
less it and rschew all further connection
with tho Convention of the 14th of Au
gust. The city, which contains independ
ence Hall, in .which President liinnoln on
his way to Washington in 18(51 declared j
his willingness to suffer martyrdom rath
er than sacrifice the prinsiplas of free |
dom, and the same Hall in which his
martyred remains lay instate in 18G5,
ought not to be desecrated by any such
assemblage of rebels as will doubtlass be
there. In that body there may be some
Union-loving, loyal democrats and Re
publicans, and to them I mean no d.isrc
sped, but, they will be in a proportion so
small that the sprinkliug of all their salt
will not confer upon the putrid character
of that body tho slightest savor, and
tlicy will find, when perhaps it is too
lale, that their contact with so foul jin j
assemblage will result in their political
destruction more effectually than if they
had been members of the infamous Hart- |
ford Convention.
Your call, emanating as it does from |
yourself «nd a few professed Union men \
in Washington City, meets with no re
sponse from the loyal men of the States,
ami iu this.tho banner Union County of
the Hation, in which Mr. Lincoln receiv
ed ten thousand majority, there is not a
single Union voter whs will endorse tho
proceedings of tho Convention of tho
14th of August, as now foreshadowed.— [
j [l there be an exception to this it will bo ;
confined to tho few upon whom the Na
tional offices have been conferred.
In conclusion, 1 sincerely hope that
you may yet withdraw from all connec
tion wi'li what is now apparent to you
will be nothing more than a rebel assem
blage, and that you will eounsel the Pres
ident to do tho same and that the Na
tional Union party—after having fought
and won the [power of tho government
may be saved the disgraco of having it
handed over through treachery to the
discomfitted rebels.

fully present.
That we examined the Jail of said County, In tho Bor
ough of Bntler, ajt>l find it wttsrly unfit for the use
which it is Intended. There are no means for keeping
twyai Jte the mali* .-itid female inmates. It is so arranged
that it is impo-edblc to remodel the Jail, so as to effect
any permanent < r important change. Tho .fail Is, he
sides in Air opinion, too small and unhealthy, being
•lump and murky. We, In short, condemn tho Jail as
w<.r-e than usele-s, by being positively unfitted as a hab
itation for any hunu.n being, it is inhuman to put and
keep inen, much more females, in such a hole. Attor
neys cannot see and consult with their Clients In the
Jail, w.thout great inconvenience as well a*discomfort.
It is, in our judgment, an ontruce on decency and hu
manity, and a disgrace to the County. We therefore
earnestly advise and recommend the demolition of the
old Jail and tho immediate erection of a new one. We
further present that the .fail and its surroundings nro
well, neatly, and comfortably kept ac present by the
Sheriff and his good wife, as is possible. We further
recommend the Commissioners of the County, to have
the Court lb use insured as soon as possible, In a sum
approaching as near as may be its original cost, in some

The OfficeM end Bond of Director^Of this C-otapnay
present the aliovecoinblnatlon of twenty rich aud vain
able Silver l/edgcs, comprising twmty-five thousand
feet, which they confidently believe embraces a proper,
ty for profitable silver mining unsurpassed by any on
tiie Pacific coast.
This was «clect*d and located by practical
and experienced miners, among tbo first. In North Union
and Mammoth, whirh are Justly regarded among tlie
l#eid -v'lyor uiininif districts In the Ptate, on account of
the rlcbv'sjiof the ores, tlio width of the voles, tho flnv
timber up 4jie niouutaln, and tho salt b;udus and gritaa
in tbo vajleys.
This Company do not dodgn to act forth stateinants
that wifl not he wrtfie.l. and proler under-estimating
what they believe the results will prove. Knel is no
iteinol gru:ii expenso in many of tho districts. The
* Curry, Ophir, Savage, a« t other celebrated mines ht
Waslnw, are imylng tr.»m fifteen to twenty dtdl.-tra per
ror<l f.<r wood A twenty ctunp mill will consume If.
teen cords of wood per d:«y, at sl6 per cord, amounting
to 112 per d vy. I i the M ironiotn aud Nortli Union
districts it would be simply theeultlftg.f ft pereor«l,or
per dsy. There is a hug" saving on this Item. In tbo
c .nsnm^tlottof salt, which Is larg ly nsud In mining
operations, the saving would not be less tbaa pV) per
nay ovrr many otbor districts. In these two Items tlier*
is sn advant\go iu cost of running a twenty atuinp
in these district! which would make a handsome yearly
prof.t of itself.
It is not the intention of the Company to work all this
| property at the present tune, but to hold It In reserve
for future disposition, cither t» form a part of It Into
I other organisations, oy to erect other mills, as may be
dceuifil expadlent. A twenty stamp mill noar a well
i aslected lo*i" will pay a largo dividend on the capital
i thefhst wot king year, and leave a r«norvod fund In tho
treasury, to be applied to tho orrdlpn of another mill.
I This Company Intend to orcot a first-cloas mill amr
} the Winnebago l«»»U, which i- foiiy ami omvhalf ffc«r.
, wide, and is considered ono of the richest silver ledges
in Nevada, and will afford an ample supply of ore fur a
r i twenty-stamp mill.
{ i'roi'essnr filatchly, who Is a 'dentlfle, reliable, and
very cautious gentleman, says of this loda:
J «• This is a strong well-defined vein, showing every
j indication of drptU and )>r.rinanrmr, Th e ore. it of
grrat richness, and welt diffwed the rein,
j awl all the ore will pay for working from therffg sur
! fare. This inn rrry raluable mine and can he made to
pay from the beginning." A. Ulatoim.v,
Mining Knirinoar.
It is m»>rs than doubtful if I»rofessor 1 'latrhly spmka
in those terms of any other mine in Nevada.
' j A twenty stamp mill can crash twenty ton* per day t
' but wy th:-t it crushes 15 tons per dny, (choice spnel.
! mens from the Winnebago Km Ie hf»* assayed #ll3*i per
j ton), it Is a low extlmate to say that it will give an«v
araga yield of $l5O per b»n, taken as it comes from the
vein. Fifteen tons per day w »uld yield sft*2so; the ex*
}*ft*os of crushing In these districts will not exceed s."|u
per Jon, or #l5O for 15 tons, leaving a net profit of <lh(X)
for a working day, or a monthly profit of over $40,0U0
i for one mill.
. , This htatement may <"om large, but It is proven by
1 j the results of other niijls in districts loss favorably lo
cated. Wo confidently believe there is no other invest
i men* will pay such returns as silver property,
