Yet, notwithstanding - this disadvant age over J160, 000, 000 were panned out of these gulches and ' crevasses : and carried away to the outside world. But , when the miners reached the soft, wet ground at the feet of the gulches they were power loss to go further, because they could not mine beneath It on ac count of water. Many a longing eye cast UDon this treasure-bed. be cause every miner- knew that it con tained the washings of the mountains for centuries upon centuries, and must ' be fairly reeking, so to speak, with that for which , they had endured so many sarosnipa But cast metal pi ping, in large Quantities, would necessary to work these' bottoms, an such could not be had.

About 7:80 o'clock, by prearrangement, one of ' the , ship's launches met- the parry rrom enerman, Jiay uo. at tne Stnrk street dock .and carried them to the ship, where-they proceeded to make the decks of 'the Charleston' rajr" with muslo of all. klnda . - It was truly- an Interesting sight to ths writer to see at least in iree hun dred Jackles grouped around the-piano. They- enjoyed It keenly; In fact, so much so, that 'they sent up a request to the captain to grant sn extension of lights for one hour. - This the cap tain very, kindly- granted, - thus placing the light' limit - too ten o'clock instead of nine, as is the navy rule. The sail ors - sang with, the songs and danced to xne dances. Not only were the old time sailor's "hornpipes" danced with gresy glee, but also the' genuine coon rag. Perhaps the most enjoyable of the dances ' were the. two-step, and waits, the lads selecting partners and dancing with careless grace and freedom . that would put envy in the heart of the so ciety bud. . This -continued - until "Bunks" was called,1 when the party from. Sherman, Clay & Co. was taken ashore on the ' ship's: steamer with a shower of thanks for a -most-pleasant evening, 'Which was sincerely appreci ated . by the ofifcers, as;, well 'as the sailor. - - -. - . - '- ; . -This spirit on the Dart of Shermar. Clay 4 Co. Is commendable, especially from .the fact that this concert was given without any display or desire for advertising, nor for any desire to sell any instruments on board the Charles ton, but merely from the standpoint of"dolng their share of entertaining the jacaies in -ortiana. , LUIS 1 Y Y '"r. 1 , i "mat.
