CAN'T BE SArIsFIED-The Express is in an
exceedingly bad humor. After denouncing
the last Council as set of contemptible
sneaks for passing an ordinance which didn't
suit it, it now bounces the new Council for
filling all the vacancies on the police with
Americans instead of putting on a few Irish-
men, The last Council elected during their
term of office, three Irishmen, and, it ought
therefore to be better liked by the Express
than the present one. If it is anti Demo,
cratic to exclude Irishmen from the police,
and Democratic to put them on, surely the
Express must acknowledge that the last
Council, which it has been abusing, was more
Democratic than the one which has Just come
in. Verify, We believe that the Administra-
ton party never will settle upon tie test of
Democracy. First it is one thing, then it is
another, and next it IS something else The
test now is, care you in favor of Irishmen or
not for policemen p So important is this
test, that the Express goes SO far as to say
that the new Council has been "guiity" of an

TEAMS WANTED IN Carson VALLEY-The

Lumber, teams and horse feed is Just now
the great thing needed. We notice hundreds

Their blankets with them. If parties of four

A SHORT SERMoN.-As quaint speci-
men of clerical brevity, we offer the fol-
lowing-it is ascribed to an old English
divine. The text upon which it was based
is to be found in Titus ii, 9. He thus un-
folded his doctrine:
|. There are three companions with
whom you should always keep on good
terms. First, Your Wife; Second, Your
Stomach; Third, Your Conscience.
II. If you wish to enjoy peace, long
life, and happiness, preserve them by tenn
perance. lutemperance produces: First,
Domestic misery; Second, Premature
death; Third, Infidelily.
To make these poiats clear, l refer you:
First, To the Newgate Calendar; Second,
To the hospitals, lunatic asylums, and
workhouses; Third, To the past experience
of what you have seen, read, and suffered,
in mind, body, and estate.
Reader, decide! which will you choose!
Temperance, with happiness and long life;
or Intempcrance, with misery and prema-
ture death?

men never wrote such volume as that
1t came from God" He bad not yet, how
ever, attained to personal faith in Christ.
1t was nosstill severel weeks afterward that
be ventured to call himself child Of God.
Gradually, however, light and peace came
into his mind, and drove away the last rem
nant of the skepticism that had so long
darkened and disquieted his soul. The
young minister, few months later, had
the JOY of admitting to the church the aged
skeptic now BUNDLED as little child.
Ifthe preacher had been too much elated
by his success, he saw his error when he
came TO congratulate the aged and faithful
mother on the conversion of her husband.
She meekly replied, at does not surprise
me. l have prayed for it and confidently
expected it for forty years."
How little" thought he, "has been my
instrumentallity compared with bers in that
conversion. The faith that has watched
and prayed through forty hears has receiv-
ed its reward, and to that God who inspired
and has now answered the prayer, be all
The glory"
The old man afterward led consistent,
Christian life, and if he has not recently
passed away, is still a living witness how
an Atheist may become believer in Christ.
