COPPER DISCOVERIES IN CALAVERAS. - The San Joaquin Republic draws a cheerful picture of the effect which the discovery of copper ore in the foot hills of Calaveras, a short distance from Stockton, must exercise in the future upon the interests of that city. FIRE - HEAVY LOSS. On the fourth inst. our neighbor R.W. Tallant met with a loss which cannot fail to be severely felt, and in which he has the sympathies of the entire community. At about 11 o'clock, A.M. while everybody was busily engaged in celebrating, each according to his own bent and inclination, but the great mass of the people were with the children in the grove near Mr. Hawes' residence, a heavy smoke was seen to ascend in one dense column heavenward, about a mile to the south, and in an instant every horse and wagon in the vicinity was brought in requisition, and upon repairing to the scene of the conflagration, it was found that a fire was raging in the hay belonging to Mr. Tallant. The hay constituted almost the entire crop raised by Mr. Tallant this season, and consisted of some two hundred and fifty tons, of superior quality, in excellent condition, and all nicely stacked, ready for baling. Mr. Tallant was absent in town, for the purpose of getting rope to bale it, and we noticed that the press was already in the field. All the other members of the family were absent celebrating the Fourth. To see other old newspapers, visit http://www.newspaperabstracts.com
