NEvADA.-0ur constitutional convention has
adopted the name of Nevada for our embryo
State. We like it for its originality. The con-
ception is musically and poetically grand posses

Nevada county says that he was working in n
Nevada tunnel, with other Nevadians, in Nevada
township, on Nevada creek near Nevada city, in
Nevada county, which lyeth in the Nevada noun

Nevada Territory, which is soon to be the State

" Mrs. Dr.. Lydia Saycr lIasbrouck wife OF
John W. Ilasbrouck, editor Of the Mddletown
On. W Wing Press, won't pay her taxes because
she cant vote. Lately she was notified by the
highway ovcrseer of the town to appear on u
certain day, with shovel in hand, to work out
her highway tax. She appeared at the appoint
ed time with her fire shovel and went to work,
but only for five days, when her tax was for ten
days and half She was thereupou arrested
upon the complaint of the Ovcrsecr. He COM
plains that he "gave Lydia Sayer Hasbrouck,
who resides in said district, and is assessed to
work ten days and half on the highways there
! in, notice to appear on the 9th day of Scptem-
Der, with good shovel, on the road near the
house ofA. l.. Townley to do such work. and
that the said l.. Sayer llasbrouck did SO appear
with IT small fire shovel, whereupon the said
plaintiff furnished the said lasbrouck with Il
good shovel, and directed her to assist in filing
the wagons that were on the ground, but that
the said Ilasbrouok did not work faithfully, re-
manning idle Il considerable portion of the time
each load was filling, standing leaning on her
shovel, talking and calling the attention of other
workmen from their work at other times sitting
during the whole time Of filing the wagon, some
times with one hand tossing pebbles into the
wagon, and at others reading apaper."
Doctor Lydia still adheres to her strong mind
ed notions. We remember her before she as
sumed the name Of Iasbrouck, and then as now,
she had her own way Of doing things.
