THE FOURTH IN THE CITy.-Although there
was no regular formal celebration of the
National Anniversary in the city, yet every
body seemed to remember the occasion, and
was ioyful over it. The streets were full
of men during the entire day, and all ap-
reared to realize the fact that the Fourth of
July had once been signalized by great
event in the history of the human race,
which rendered it right and appropriate for
its annual return to be commemOrated by
reioicings and festivities. Those who could
not naturally raise their feelings from the
ordinary, matter-of fact, affairs of life, to
the level of high patriotic sentiment, as
sisted their elevation by the use of certain
carefully prepared fluids, well known to
have very favorable influence in exciting
noble thoughts and generous emotion.-
Every man seemed resolved to show that
the utilitarian spirit of the age could afford
to give at least one day to the glorious mem
ories of the heroic deeds of the nations
founders. In the evening all who were not
present at the elegant dancing party of the
Sons of Temperance, attended the exhibit
ton of the Marsh Troupe at the Theatre
The day passed off pleasantly to all.

M1RsH TRoUPB.--ff success be the criterion
taken as the Standardization the theatrical exhi-
billions of the Marsh Troupe have been the best
given in Nevada for long time. When the
troupe played here week or two ago, they had
crowded houses night after night, during the
whole time they remained; and, considering the
great number of public exhibitions we have had
lately, and the tightness of the money market,
We hardly suppos hat on their return,so soon,
they would be, again. SO well sustained. But on
each of the evenings during the present week on
which they played hcre-Monday, Tuesday and
wednesday-the theatre was full. On the last
two evenings it was crowded. On Monday they
performed "Michael Erie, the Maniac Lover"
and Toodles." The former piece was exceed
ingly well played; and all who have seen Mas
ter Marsh and little Jenny in "Toodles will
know that the latter was treat. On Tuesday
evening the beautiful spectacle of " The Naiad
Queen" was presented to a delighted audience.
This was certainly very entertaining perform
ance, and we think it was somewhat better
played than on the occasion of their former visit
On Wednesday evening, the 4th, Blaek-Eyed
Susan was performed, together with patriotic
songs, recitations, etc. On each evening the
performances were intersperced with songs and
dances, all of which were good. The duets by
Andrew and Laura were exceedingly fne-par-
ticularly that of " Annie Laurie" Misses Gour-
Icy and Louise are surpassed by few actresses in
the State.
The company left here yesterday for Grass

play there, also, tonight and tomorrow night,

DAScING PARTY OF THE SoNs OF TEMPER
AseE-This social gathering which took
place on the evening of the Fourth was an
exceedingly elegant and successful reunion.
Temperance HalI-the scene of the festivi-
ties-has recently been enlarged, and is now
lust twice its former size. The main hall,
aside from the reception rooms, is fifty-two
feet square, and is the finest dancing room
in the county. Over its spacious floor the
g twinkling feet of the dancers kept up the
poetry of molten " from an early hour in
the evening, until the rays of the coming
sun warned the merry-makers to desist. A
very large number Of the I" fair women" of
Nevada were present, including many who
do not usually attend such parties; and, of
course, the "ugly sex /" was fully repre-
sented. The pleasures of the evening were
those which the tendencies of the occasion
naturally excited, unaided by artificial stim-
ulants. The music, furnished by Messrs.
Grove, Hatch, Coggins and Carter, was ex-
cellent. Every one was delightfully."- enter
tanned and all left the room reluctantly, and
thoroughly impressed with the shortness of
the summer nights.

a Singular Meeting.

The Republicans of New York have
their central headquarters directly opposite
the New Pork Hotel, chiefly patronized by
Southern travellers, and not little antago-
nism, and one or two positive collisions,
have occurred between the adverse parties
gathered at the hotel and the headquarters
According to the New York Post there
has been u traternization between the two
ana the houses Of Capulet and Montague
are hencetorth to be at peace:
During the evening pleasant incident
occurred in front of the New York Fl otel
which leads to the hope that the neighbors
who have heretofore been somewhat jeal-
Gus and quarrelsome, will in future have a
better understanding and appreciation of
each others good qualities. A Republi-
can entered into conversation on the steps
Of the Hotel, and soon became the centre
of large audience Of Southern gentlemen
and other guests of the establishment
He had good voice, and gave clear, in
telligent and comprehensive statement of
the views and purpose Of his party. His
language was gentlemanly and well chosen,
and he was listened to with profound and
respectful attention.
At the conclusion of his remarks he
thanked the gentlemen for their courteous
conduct, and told them if they would 90
with him to the rooms of the Republican
Central Campaign Club they would find
their courtesy fully reciprocated. The
invitation was accepted, and meeting was
formed about the door, under the Lincoln
banner. Speeches were made deprccating
sectional dissensions and in favor of up
holding the Union whatever may be the
result Of the approaching election.
One of the hotel men finally said that he
believed Abraham Lincoln to be an honest
man; and while he differed from his polt-
ical views, he proposed three cheers for
him, not as politician, but as an honest
man. The cheers were accordingly given
by the hotel men.
A Republican then said that in John C..
Breckenridge his party recognized a gen
tleman who was plain and honest in the
avowal Of his principles As a frank and
outspoken enemy they respected him, and
as a man, not as politician, he proposed
three cheers for Breckenridge, which were
given heartily. The meeting broke up
with many expressions Of good feelings on
both sides.

M0RAh & RELIGIOUS
AUTUMN.

As ordained in the beginning, so the
seasons continue to walk their annual round
The full bloom of midsummer has yerged
into the hectic of decay. The beautiful
poetry of earth is passing away into the
'sere and yellow leaf but it has not bloom
ed in vain. Like the hopes which have
cheercd like the love, and affection, and
friendships which have bloomed by the
path and given our brief life It's summer,
they leave the fragrance Of blessed memo
ries behind. As they waste and fade, and
go to their shrouding under leaf, and blade,
and winters drift, they emblem our own
resurrection to the beauty and bloom of
Eternal Summer
The earlier flowers have passed away, as
have the brighter dreams, and hopes of our
lives, but like those who are true when the
frosts gather upon our locks are the latter
ones. With tn, Sc we heap our altar with
a tribute to the Summer whose last suns
are setting. BY the light and warmth of
the ssn by day. aud while the lamps of the
night were swinging overhead, nature has
pursued her mystic shuttlery and from
warp and weft Of sunbeam, and rain, and
dew, woven beauty and wealth into the
earniturc Of the summer Leaves were
flung over the woodlands, green blades over
the meadow, nodding grain over the plow-
ed field, and flowers over all.
Autumn gorgeous in the glory which
burns on the woodlands, and bounteous in
the fruits Of the field, the vine and the
bough. fading, yet beautiful, the very
treasures of the fulflment hammered by the
/ hectic of decay. We thank the God of
the rolling year for its coming and its teem-
ing fullness, anG as in the olden time, we
bring It's fruits to the altar in remembrance
of Him who hath made our fields to smile
with fatness, and corn in the valleys grow.

Autumn Thoughts.

Beautiful, glorious Autumn has again
spread her gorgeous mantle over the Garth,
and again the winds have returned to glad
den youthtu hearts with their boisterous
freedom Flowers that but yesterday rails
cd their heads in silent. alteration to the
burning sun, to-day lie frost-btten and
nipped in the bud In their faded beau
ty they seem to whisper how in the merry
summer time they tossed their heads in proud
defiance of the mild breeze, but now sadly
murmuring as they seemingly plead with
the rude blast and ruder frost, to spare
their tender buds from their deadly touch
The forest that so lately gloried in It's en-
erall hue, now appears to the eye in fam
ins grandeur. Each tinted leaf as it falls
silently to the ground, tells the tale OF mor-
ry hours when it swayed to and fro in the
gentle mountain breeze The naughty
Pine, that in the summer time disdaincd
to bow before pleasant winds, now in ma
iestic strength withstands and bids def.
ance to the coming storm. Wandering by
the brookside in the hazy autumn time,
drcamlike melody seems to float entrancing
ly around, mingling with the ripping
sound of the rivulet; and as it flows on, Gil,
our senses are borne far on with it, and a
dreamy languor steals over the mind until
it seems almost as though life itself were
mingling with its music. LAUREL.

THE HEART.

Few people hold close communication
with their own hearts 1t is a terrible
thing to question it nually-seycrely
and feel the truth of It's replies, wrung
out fraction by fraction till the questioner
sees himself revealed and humbIcd at the
revelation There is far more of profound
and far-reaching knowledge than most men
are willing to perceive in the exclamation Of
the Hebrew poet The heart is deceitful
above all things and desperately wicked ?
And yet men need not be thus deceived.
1t is because they dare not learn the truth
they fear to know themselves. | share
in this fear. Once or twice | have torn
the mask away, and looked on the naked
ness of the heart-but | shut my eyes and
tried to cheat myself into the belief that
there was no devil there. | will confess
it now. 1t is not a difficult matter to know
more Of our neighbor than ourself, for we
do not fear to study him. We read him
in an open book, and though we can not
pry closely into every page, We can peruse
the table Of contents and learn more than
he would be willing to tell. | thank God
for the restraining influence which he
throws around men-for his monitions with
out and within to keep and cherish the spir-
it Of good in the human heart, that it may
not wholly die But for these, how soon
would the light of the inner temple go out
in darkness, and midnight of despair and
horror wrap the soul

Reuben Todd's bad Spell"

The Importance of spelling correctly is
seen by the following, especially the ne
cessity of spelling Lager Beer as it should
be. Acountry rumseller wishingasupply of
that beverage wrote as follows:
Bungville, JUL lst 1860.
Mesers Blotch & Drinker sen me up as
soon as possibal cask of brandy and one
Large Bear for forth of JUL sen the Bear
by express in Hast Ruben Todd
The answer came as follows:
Mr. Todd-Dear Sir: We send you to-
day one cask of brandy and the bear by
express as requested. You must feed him
on raw meat, and be very c-reful that he
does not escape, as he is very savage. He
cost S400 and we let you have him fer
the same. Please forward payment
Yours respectfully Blotch & Drinker.
The CONSERVATION of Reuben Todd was
complete when the furious animal was land
ed at his shop door with half scared cur
ious crowd around it, and it was only By a
sacrifice of the cask of brandy for keep
er and couple Of trips to New York, that
he got rid Of the ugly property and learn
ed how to spell Lager Beer.

a Southern Disunionist.

The Knoxville (Tenn.) Whig gives the
following incident in the life of man who
has recently assumed considerable political
prominence:
The fact that w l.. Yancey killed his
uncle, DR.. Eagle, of South Carolina, has
been stated in general terms, but the de-
tails have not been given. Dr. Eagle lived
one mile and half west of Greenville,
where his widow still resides, if alive a
few hundred yards distant is an old corn
field, sometimes used for practising on horse
back, but more frequently resorted to as a
muster ground. This was the occasion of
DrjH--Hustcr when Dr. Eagles son, about
ten years old, went to the ground, as all
boys seek to do, and during their wheeling
and turning, the boy got in their way.
Iancey ordered him to get out of the way,
but the boy, in his confusion, got more and
more in the way, whereupon Yancey lash
ed him most numerically with horse
whip. DR.. Eagle was not at home, but on
returning through town, friend told him
how cruelty Hancey had treated his son
Yancey told him that the boy had been
very insolent, and that he had slapped his
jaws. DR.. Eagle replied that he had served
him right. But when the Dr. reached his
home and learned the facts, and found that
Yancey had lied to him, he returned to
Greenyille in search of him. Yancey
knowing the pluck of Eagle, and that he
would be detected in the falsehood, prepar-
ed himself for a fight The DR.. found
Yancey on DR.. Crittendens porch, and in
marching upon him was shot down by Yam
cey with pistol These are the facts as
we have them from one born and reared in
that vicinity. The fact that Yancey was
convicted upon trial and imprisoned, and
afterwards became the subject of Execu-
tive clemency, corroborates the truth Of this
version. This is the man who procured
the disruption of the Democratic Party,
and the nomination of Mr. Breckenridge =

Bsg~D David Eillets, ofBridgewatcr, Conn,
who murdered his two daughters and cut
his own throat, few days since, says he
was in depressed condition of mind at the
time of the act, and had concluded that as
he was out of work and in no prospect Of
finding any, it would be better for him and
his children to be out of the world He
accordingly took hammer and beat out
the brains of his girls, after which he cut
his own throat. Their death was immedi-
ate, but his wound has not proved fatal
yet, and it is believed that he will recover
from its effects. The girls were respective
ly aged twelve and fifteen years. Nillet
says he is not sorry he killed his children
his only regret being that he did not kill
himself
