rim perfectly dry and apply the cloth

Under the spread of the brsnches old
At the weil-snown be"chen tree,
With III. sunset lighting her tresse' OF gold
And the bre ,zes waving them told upon fold
Waiting for me.
There il. a sweet voice with the cadence deep,
OF one that singc,h our babe to sleep,
And often turns to see
How tho stars ,hro' the lattice begin to peep
And watch the lazy dial creep,
Waiting for me.

On earth no more to he,
But still in the spirit worii sfar

We. the members of the Convention Of Union
men Of Nevada Territory believing that il is n
matter Of vital importance that the Government
of the future State of Nevada should be admin
istercd BY men of large capacity, unbending in
te-ritv and nnaueStioned patriotism, and thar il
is the bound-n duty of every citizen to sustain
NJ all times and particularly at this time Of our
rountrv's peril, the Government Of the United
States and its legally constituted authorities,
against all oppOsers, whether at home or abroad,
we therefore resolve
lst That the Union party atfirmS its devoted
LOYALTY to the Government of the United States
of America
2i That the Union party of Nevada stands
true to the country all the time, and bids eternal
defiance TO the rebellion and all its supporters,
hackers, allies, sympaihiZcrs and friends
81 That thanks 10 the God OF battles, and the
immortal vnlor of our national arms, the war is
sueress ; that it must never cease until the SUI
premc authority of the Government shall be tuily
established throughout the borders of the repub-
lie, and our flag floats in peace and triumph over
every State.
It'll That inasniuch as the national asiminiStra-

wolves the dirty of preserving the integrity OF the
Federal Union and enforcing the laws throughout
our entire public domain, and inasmuch as this
duty cannot be successfully performed without
the cordial support Of the prOple of the loyal
States we therefore pledge 10 the support OF the
Federal Administration, our united aid IN sup

forcing the laws, at whatsoever sacrifice OF blood
and treasure declaring that the Federal Union

MENDACITY.

The contemplate, word-eating, vaccila-
ting black-mail sheet published by John
Church & Co., and edited by, the devil
only knows who's striking off upon
another tack. Having reduced itself to
the lowest level of ignominy, and become
the scorn and laughing stock OF the whole
Territory, it now seeks to hide its own
disgusting enormity by filing its columns
with wholesale lies and abuse Of papers
which pursue evenly and consistently the
course, which in its days of decency and
responsibility, the Union marked out for
itself, but in fit of spleen and diSap-
pointment has seen fit to abandon. 1t
Yesterday made a mendacious charge
against us. We answered it; referring
to the authority which they quoted, for
refutation. We scorned to put our oath
against the naked assertion of paper,
which, by its own confession, has been
lying to its readers for the past three
months. The proprietors Of the Bulletin
similarly assaulted, went before Notary
Public and made oath that the editor of
Yesterdays Union was liar. Perjury Is
one step further than the slanderer likes
to take, and we have mt counter affida-
wits this morning. Verify, we have
touched pitch and have been defled.

little silver. This district is making con-
siderable excitement in Virginia. 1t is in
Churchill county, on the road from Carson to
Humboldt.
BuLL1oN.-Two tons Of ore from the
Moonlight ledge, worked at Falls mill, yield
ed $40 to the ton. A handsome little brick
was shipped by stage last week.
CANADA.-This company has let a contract
for shaft 40 feet on the ledge, and the work
commenced this week.

tunnel, working night and day.
ILLINOIS commences work next week, with
