Statk and troupe played to good hous-
Is up to their closing piece on Tues
day night last. The character of
Richelieu was sublimely enacted on
Friday night of last week. The per-
sonation of the great Cardinal is
Stark's forte. He was made for that
character.
On Saturday night schiller's thrill
ing drama of the Robbers was per-
formed WITH success. Monday night
the piece was OthellO, in which Stark
as ever kguress to advantage. Tie
serio-comedy of Henry Nv, was enac-
ted on Tuesday night. Stark makes
an excellent Falstaff. Indeed who
can take the varieties of char alacter
that Stark does and do them better
The company went to Grass Valley
on Wednesday evening where they
are now playing to fine houses. We
have heard the wish expressed by
several of the best judges of stage
performances our town affords, that
Stark may return to our boards again
when his engagement at Grass Valley
has senefuded. He has by no means
.pEayed out" here. We unite in the
wish Of better judges than ourselves,
and would be glad to welcome the
company to Nevada again. Their
return would be cordially greeted by
all true lovers of the drama.

Old Line Wings i'm New York for
Lincoln,

A mass meeting i'll favor of the election of
Lincoln, of several thousand Americans and
Old Line Wings who supported Fillmore in
1856, was held in Union Square, New York,
Monday evening of last week. 1t w.s pre-
sided over by Judge Mitchell, assisted by
one hundred and fifty Vice Presidents, and
thirty five Secretaries-all influential men,
bers of the late American party. Letters
were read from James A. Putnam, Truman
Smith, Roger S. Baldwin, Willis Hall, E. L.
Snow, and George r. Babcock; all urging
the Old Clay Guard to support Lincoln and
Hamlin. The meeting was addressed by
Daniel Ullman, Rufus S. Andrews, Horace
Greeley and others.
The N. Y. Tribune says of the meeting:-
The meeting last evening Of men who in
1856 supported Millard Fillmore, and now
support Abraham Lincoln, was large and
spirited. Many participated who would have
| voted for Bell and Everett, had they been
souarely supported, with reasonable pros
meet of success, but who REVOLT at the ides
of being drawn after the car Of the head

thus thrust into the Democratic ranks

to vote for Douglas; most Of them are al
ready decidedly for Lincoln, and the rest arc

A. Census.Taking AnecdOte.

In endeavoring to take census for the
government, the Marshals occasionally meet
with such difficulties as well nigh tend tc
deprive them of their own senses. The fol
lowing took place in canal street, New Or
leans:
"Who is the head of this family?"
''That depends on circumstances. If be.
fore II o'clock, it's me husband-if after II
it's meself"
"How SOP"
because, after IL he's as drunk as pi
per, and unable to take care of himself, LEI
alone the family"
whats his age?"
"Comlng mkt Mechalmas he will lack a
day of being as old as Finnegan. You know
Finnegan?"
No, don't know Finnegan; and if did
it would not help the matter. Is your hus'
band an alien?"
"Och, thin, he's ailin entirely. He has
rheumatics worse than ovid Donnelly, who
was tied double wild 'em.
"How many male members have you in
the family?"
"Niver one."
"What, no boys at all9"
"Boy, sit? Och murther, 60 home
We hev boys enough to whip four loaves Of
bread for breakfast"
"When were you married?"
"The day Pat Doyl left Tipprary fol
America. An we'll mind it--a sunshiniel
day niver gilded the sky Of ovid Ireland"
"What was the condition of your husband
before marriage9"
"Divil man more miserable. He said i
I didn't give him promise within two day
he'd blow his brains out with crowbar."
"What was he at the time of your mar
riace, a wdower or bachelor ?"
A which? A widower did you say? All
now, go way wild yer nonsense. Is't tn
likes of me that would take up a second-fan,
husband! A poor divil, all legs and con
sumption, like a sick turkey. A widower
May niver be blissed if I'd rather not liv
an ovid maid, and bring up a family on but
ter-milk and praties."
Here the dialogue ended, the marshal com
ing to the conclusion that he could "mak
more" next door. Whether. he did we vii
know at some future time.

FROM tnat nOur lOrtn the cDlid looked OUT
upon the star as on the home he was to &c
to, when his time should come, and he
thought he did not belong to earth alone, but
to the star, too, because of his sisters ange
gone before. a~..
There was baby born to be brother tt
the child and while he was so little that he
had never yet spoken word, he stretched
his tiny form out on the bed and died.
A, gain the child dreamed of the opened
star, and Of the company of angels, and the
train of people, and all the rows of angels
with their beaming eyes all turned upon
those peoples faces.
Said his sisters angel to the leader
'Is my brother Gomez"
And he said, "Not that one but another. v
As the child beheld his brothers angel in
her arms, he cried, so, sister, am here
take me!' And she turned and smiled up
on him, and the star was shining.
He grow to be young man, and was bu-
sy at his book, when an old servant came to
him and said
"Thy mother is no more, bring her bles
sing on her darling son.
Again at night he saw the star, and all
that forner company. Said his sisters an
gel to the leader
'Is my brother coma?'
And h, said "Thy mother"
A mighty cry ofjoy went forth through
all the stars, because the mother was reunit
ed to her two children. And he stretched
out his arms and cried, 80, mother, sister,
and brother, an here! Take mel" And
they answere l, "Not yet" and the star. was
shining.
He grew to b, a man whose hair was tur-
ming gray, and he was sitting in his chair
by the freside, heavy with grief and with
his face bedewed with tears, when the star
opened once again. ..... F..
Said his sisters angel to the leader, ''Is
my brother Gomez"
And he said, "Nay, but his maiden daugh-
ter"
And tle man who hal been the child saw
his daughter, newly lost to him, celestial
creature among those there, and he said
"My daughters head is on my mothers bo-
som, and her arm is around my mother S
neck, and at her feet there is the baby of old
time, and can bear the parting from her,
God be praisedH'
And the star was shining.
Thus the child came tobe an old man, and
his once smooth face was wrinkled, and his
steps were slow and feeble, and his back was
bent. And one night as he lay upon his bed,
his children standing round him, he cried
as he had cried so long ago
~ see the star ~
They whispered one to another, "He is dy
ing"
And he said, Il am. My age is falling
from me like garment, and move toward
the star as child And o, my Father, now
thank thee that it has so often opened to
receive those dear ones who await me!'
And the star was shining; and it shines
upon his grave.

FLOWERS.

Oh they have looked upward in every place
Through this beautiful World Of ours.
And dear as . smile on an old friends face
Is the smile Of the bright flowers
They tell Us of wand'ring by woods and streams;
They tell US Of lanes and trees:
But the children Q. showers and sunny beams
Have loveer tales than these
The bright, bright flowers!
They tell Of season when men were not.
When earth was by angles trod,
And leaves and flowers in every spot
Burst fourth at call Of God;
When spirits, singing their hyms at even,
Wandered by wood and glade,
And theLord looked down from the highest heaven
Aud blessed what he had made
The bright, bright flowers! ....
The blessing remaineth upon them still, .-
Tho ugh often the storm cloud lowers,
And frequent tempests may soil and chill
The gayest Of earth's fair flowers.
When Sin and Death, with their sister, Grief,
Made home In the hearts Of men,
The blessing Of God on each tender leaf
Preserved in their beauty then
The bright, bright flowers!
The lily Is lovely as when 1t slept
On the waters Of Eden's lake;
The woodbine breathes sweetlv as when IL crept
In Eden from brake to brake,
They were left as a proof OF loveliness
Of Adam and Ewes first home;
They are here as type Of the joys that bless
The just In the world to come
The bright, bright flowers.

CHAPTER |.

1st. And it came to pass in the year of
our Lord, one thousand, eight hundred and
sixty, in the fourth year of the reign of king
James, over the United States of America,
and while Kirkwood was Tctrarch ofthe prov
ince called Iowa, that there arose great ex-
citement throughout all the land,
2nd. Now this excitement among the peo-
pie was concerning great question proposed
by Stephen Arnold, of the tribe of Douglas,
a man small in statue, but, large in desire,
and many people from the party calling them
selves Democrats, Aocked in unto him.
g. And the same brought much tronble
in the camp, insomuch that the people lifted
up their voices crying-why will you follow
after this man, and worship at strange affairs?
4. Then Stephen Arnold appeared before
them, and cried saying: This is the doctrine
Of the revolutioc, and the same was not un-
derstood by your fathers, else they were tories
at heart
5. Now these sayings astonished the peo-
pie, and they murmured among themselves,
saying, this Stephen Arnold is false proph
ct, seeking to lead US after strange Gods.
6. And forthwith, they assembled them
selves together at a city called Charleston,
in the province Of Carolina.
7. Now when they were gathered at this
place, there arose dissensions, back billings,
divisions, which lasted many days, when
every man fled into his own land, sorely
vexed.
8. They next met at a city called Balti-
more, in the province of Maryland, where the
same murmurings arose, and a great battle
was fought, and the same ended in the re
lection of Stephen Arnold, by the party called
democrats.
o. Now this pleased the democracy much,
and they shouted with loud voice, saying,
the traitor has fallen, and we are redeemed
Hosanna Hosanna in the highest to Breok-
inridge our king.
