Ii.vi:hsivk N"tf.s or tiik I'i.asiikl I'autv. In the course of an hour's conversation with ('.overnnr Ulasdol, at the house of Mr. Slauson, last evening, and while his numerous friends were calling aud chatting, we gathered a Jew discursive incidents of the trip from Silver Peak to Pahran.-igat, and thence to Austin via Indian Springs. Wo have already mentioned the death of a member oi the party, named C illis, from Virginia City, lie died in Ash valley, throuc.li wiueii tin- .-riMgosa river flows, and not in Death Valley, as previously stated. Ash valley embra ees a beautiful tract of land, well water ed, and covered with a rich growth of nutritious grass. This had Leci: happi ly choj-cn as the principal camp oi the party, from which small sijuads would explore lor a practicable route towards Pahrariagat, while their jaded animals were being recruited. G illis was one of a party of three men employed in this service, and after traveling several days, and their supply of water having been exhausted, they searched for a fresh supply. At the time the general camp was selected, certain signals had been agreed upon ; for iuiitanr-n, nn ovplio'ing party returning to the main camp, were to light a fire and keep it burning, and if it were seen at the general camp, it was to be answered by three fires, placed about 100 feet apart, aud lighted simul taneously, and alter the lapse of a few minutes, three pistol shots were also to be fired. Two of the party had gone down into a ravine, where they hoped to find water, leaving G illis behind with the pick and shovel, to join them when signaled. They found no water, and alter three quarters of an hour, they returned to where they had lett G illis, who was gone They went to their camp, but he was not there, and not re. turning, they concluded he had set out for the maiu camp. In a day or two they returned there, and learned that G illis had neither come i'l nor been beard from. One evening before their return, the occupants of the camp saw a' ' fire suddenly ilath up on the summit of a bill about nine miles distant. They concluded it was an absent party, and immediately nuswered by the agreed signals. Light days from that evening about midway of the hill upon which the fire had been sceu and the principal camp, and ou the direct course for the latter place, a party found the body of Gilhs, reclining in the sand wall Ins head upon a sare bush his features as placid as if he slept. lie was der.d Excessive futiguo had induced his death from disease of the heart, to which, it finnears, he had been subject, Ihe fire seen ou the distant hill was explain cd ; it was the signal of (i illis, who ob serving it answered, had luado direct .y for the camp, until disease arrested his steps, and he lay down to die. Ho had been ubscut teu days, aud had died on the evening ol the second Jav. MtEttitit:t 1 We observe that insidious attempts arc being made to poiso:i the minds of Democrats and others against Clyuier, by attaching to him a suspicion of taking tides iu a question of local interest in this county. iote, that tho very men who are industriously endeavoring to impress you with tho idea that Clyiuer f i.i committed in favor of tho removal of ' the county scat, aio the most bitter rad ie'i!,, men who under any circumstances would be bdJ will bo opposed to hi election. The charge is not true. Mr Clyuier is running on a uatioual issue an 1 would not stoo-o to meddle iu .so in Bba-tieant a matter as tho location of a ooun'v seat.

There is no longer any doubt ns to who will be the radical candidate for Congress in this district.. Glenni W. Schiiliuld evidently has secured the nomination in his party, for us it is enough to know, that his record is bla.'k as the blackest, nnd that no conscrva. tivo man can honestly support him. We believe ho cm be beaten nnd we know he oii"ht to be beaten. We be lieve that the Democrats and Cotisc'rva- five Republicans uuited are n majority 111 the district. Y 0 Know that as against Schofield the numbers would be swelled by hundreds of even radical liepublieans who despise cholieId as an unprincipled trickster. He is un popular 111 Jmio county. lie is even more unpopular at home. In our own county his conduct on the county seat question is fresh in the memories of our people. Let the conservative men move against him. A Union Conven. turn was held 111 Philadelphia, last week with glorious results. V hy can we not 111 the same spirit, hold a v ongrcssion- ttl Conference, and redeem this district from radical representation. Let it, bo done. !,T,rTJ-dTV.;'.-iJ 1 I1EELEI! & WILSON'S SEW.
