Rise of Real Estate.

The news of the formation of new Ter
vada-of the western norton of
Utah, has had very eXhilernting effect on
the citizens OF Carson. Holders are askinr
fabulous prices for city lots, rates in some ca
ses, that would nstonsh purchasers. if asked
tor city lets in san Francisco, aud in almost
all cases, rates that are not justified by ei
ther the present, or prospective prosperity of
the place.
The tendency of this is TO seriously iniure
onr town, and if persisted in, to utterly de-
st oy the property. holders. A wiser nolicv
10y far, would be to reduce prices fifty per
cent, until such time as each man has dis
posed of one half of his real estate TO actual
settlers. Carson City is not as vet fixed
fact; and its future depends solely upon the
llberallty OF its present citizens. If then,
we desire the organization of Nevada Terri
tory, to prove an advantage to US, we must
make some seeming sacrifices, in order to Sc
cure the greatest good. If our citizens can
not be persuaded to see their best interests.
they may be called on to mourn blindness,
that hid from sight sure destruction. Ev-
cry man that owns two city lots in Carson.
is not necessarily a millionaire, but if he will
give one of them to some man who has the
means to build and the disposition to cast
his lot among US, there is hope for him that
he may become rich, if not actually comfort
able in his circumstanccs,-Sii Age.
MRs. GREELEY AND Mrs. LINooLN-The
New York correspondent of the Phiadel-
phia Sunday Dispatch, says of Mrs Greeley:
% She is good, motherly woman, but such
fright as the ladies' say, in her appear
ance. At home, II takes one party's time al
together to follow her up and arrange the
furniture She has an ungovernable faculty
for disordering. Out of doors her costume
is perfect study of the unique and even
experts are kept in perfect agony of won
der as to where she could have purchased
such antedeluvian goods, or had them made
up so fossiliferously. Since | am growing
scaudalous, let me say that the only lady
who can appropch Mrs c. in externalities. is
the new Presidentess, Mrs. Lincoln. I saw
her at the Opera the other night. and des-
pite all the elegant toadVism of the press
about her beauty etc, it is only truth to
whisper that she may be, and no doubt is.
an excellent wife and mother as well rs
most estinalle lady but she's not belle,
that's pos. Her large, round, horid face,
embellished with forehead wreath of red
roses, well suggested that her husband was
the rising sun of the age, and large propor-
tions are not favorable to an air of dignity.

story, that Mrs Banuan scalded her arm bv |

who was present at the time, reported that |
she was scalded 10y coffee thrown at her by
her husband The report reached Rannan,
who procured a cowhide, and meeting Bags
who had his hlacksnake whip with him,
asked him for the author of the vile nsinu-
nj N attributed to him. One word led to
another when Baggs, thinking. probably, !
hat the fir t shot was half the battle, as
saultcd Bannan with his whip and both
went at it, Bannan reciprocatng most heart |
lily, with his rawhide Bnggs dropped his |
whip accidentally. and reso:ted to the shonl- |
ler. This was a new movement that reQuir |
ed immediate attention, and was attended |
to by Bannan, who trippcd him up and then
belabored him with his rawhide while pros
trate, to his hearts content Both were
