DELINQUENT SALES ON MONDAY
THAT MAIL NUISANCE.

Last evening, again, the Pioneer coaches
came moping into town about sun-down.
loaded with passengers and freight, But
NO MAIL. Passengers and freight pay,
The mail contract pays also, but the COM
pany receive their pay whether the mail
comes regularly or not. The people are
injured, disappointed, and Obstructed in
their business matters. Bat lehGt Of that ?
Postmasters are paid for properly assort-
ing and delivering the mails, and the car
riers are paid for delivering them at the
proper offices but rhat Of that If the
people complain TO an understanding
fiunkey. they are answered with the inSo-
lence which characteristics tiunkeydom {;
and to reach the ear of their masters re-
auires more trouble than the matter to be
complained of. If one, perchance, point
directly TO one, to whom delinquency Gp-
pears to be directly traceable, and the ac-
cused has manners enough to give civil
answer, We are met with lame excuses and
attempts TO shuttle the fault on to the
shoulders of some one farther away. The
matter of which we complain has become
an outrageous and damnable nuisance, toe
grievious to be borne. II there is such al
official as Mail Agent for this Territory,
he had better be doing something to earn
his greenbackS, or his office had better be
abolished. 1t is bad enough to have the
poSt-offce and mail-carrying business neg
lected in the shameful manner that 1t is,
without being compelled to pay pack OF
wooden men for neglecting it. The ques-
ton may possibly arise in some minds,
What are YOU going TO do about 1t :
We will answer that question, by stating
that if We find. beyond doubt, that the
fault lies in one certain quarter, we have
the power, to make ourselves most par
ticularly and damagingly disasreeable,
and shall do so lcith a riR.
P. S.-To-day the coaches passed di-
rectly by the Post Office, never stopping
even to say, T ann your eyes,"

DULL.-Times are dull in the Territory and
the Territorial press state that fact. There
upon the press of California, with the sagacity
Of the Jackass staring over the fence at the
small dog in the clutches OF the bear, open
wide their mouths, elevate their ears, and
bray "We to-o-old you sop' "We to-o-o-
old you sO'" They knsV Washoe was fiz-
zle and blk. They tO-O-old the people so.
We will inform these prophets that the word
"dull is comparative term; and that the
state OF affairs which we characterize as
dull, would be considered fierce hustle
OF excitement in any town in California. A
Californian just landed in our streets to-day
for the first time, would wonder what in the
devil we called brisk if this is dull. It's
dull for Washoe. That's all.

MINING DIREcroRY.-The Mining Direc-
tory of Joseph Loryea, of Virginia, now in
press, is the most complete work of the kind
ever compiled. We, some days since,
glanced over the manuscript, cursorily, but
still sufficiently to perceive the plan, and
minuteness with which its statistics have
been gathered and arranged. 1t is to be
published in pocket form, and its low
price will insure it rapid and extensive sale,
not only in the Territory, but wherever abroad
there is any interest felt in the silver mines
Of Nevada For a full description of the
work, we refer our readers to the advertise
ment in our columns to-day.

Sentence of Capt. Hurtt.

The Court Marshal, held at Cincinnati,
in the case of Capt. HURT, Assistant Quar-
ter Master U. S. v, and editor and pro-
prietor of the Ohio State Journal, has
found him guilty of "wilfully and know
ingIy detrauding the Government of the
United States" and sentenced him "to be
dishonorably dismissed from the service
of the United States, with the loss of all
pay and allowances.
Here is prominent politician, of the
Abolition party, appointed to a lucrative
position in the United States service,
grossly swindling the government which
he professed to support; using the cloak
of loyalty to accomplish his mercenary
villainy. Money was the great object for
which he was willing to sell our common
country. And, yet, while he was thus de-
frauding the government, he had the in
pudence to villify and traduce men who
were ten times more patriotic than he, as
"aiders and abettors of treason" This
same journal is considered one of the ex-
ponents of the Abolition principles in
Ohio, and they generally practice what
they preach-especially in money mat
ters-the people may judge why they
are so anxious to obtain the "last dollar.

The Abolition Platform for
1864.

The Lincoln Abolit;onists, in the Balti-
more Convention. adopted platform
"full of sound and fury, signifying notk-
ing" Divested of all verbiage, and boiled
down to its true consistency, the Aboliti-
on Platform for 1864 is pretty nlearly
set forth in Henry Ward Beecher's new
work on MIsoEGENATIoN," as follows.
Read it: ~
1t will be our noble prerogative to set the
example of this rich blending of blood.
1t is idle to maintain that this present
war is not war for the negro. 1t is a
war for the negro. Not simply for his
personal rights or his physical freedom; it
is war, if you please, of amalgamation,
so cailed-a war looking, as its final fruit,
to the blending of the white and black.
All attempts to end it without recog
milton of the political, civil and social
rights of the negro, will only lead to still
bloodier battles in the future-Let US be
wise and look to the end. Let the war
go on until the pride of caste is done
away. Let it go on until church, and
society recognise not only the propriety
but the necessity of the fusion of the
white and black; in short, until the great
truth shall be declared in our public doe
uments and announced in the messages
of our presidents, that it is desirable the
