CHARGE OF THE CLERKS BRIGADE


CHARGE OF THE CLERKS BRIGADE
Half mile, half n mile onward,
Right towards Seventh street,
Broke the six hundred
Forward the clerks brigade
Brave was the charge they made,
All for Smiths Clothing Store;
Each tried to be before
Noble six hundred!
On marched the quill brigade,
Nary one dismayPd;
Many for their custom prayed,
And all the world wondered
Whether in rapid flight,
On every weekday night,
They turned neither left nor right:
Sensible six hundred.
Stores TO the right of them,
Stores to the left of them,
Stores behind them,
Yet on, on they Numbered
Still on with rapid feet
asking each man they meet,
where's Smiths on Seventh street,
Shout the six hundred
On, on they came and bought,
Goats, pants, and vests, a full set out;
And all the world wondered
Why twas that goods from France
Were sold at so small advance
To the six hundred
1fyou wish to know, inside or out of Dixie

Hoe PEN NUISANCE CAsR-On Wednes-
day AFTERNOON, Justice Walter had before him
n case to GeteTmine whether the large hog pen
in the lotion west of the Baltimore depot
should b., allowed TO rPmain or be removed as
a nuisance, and il eXcited considerable in:eress-
This case came up prHCi- ely in the same man ,
pPr as the railroad case. which was commehced
before Justice Waller on Tuesday, the prose-
cution being the Boa! of Police, through thelr
sanitary off GERS, under the section OF the law
which gives them the power to order any nul-
sauce to BE- abated or removed, aller having
been so declared by police justice.
This case was against -- "lIieI, iOr Wnou
Mr. J. III. Bradley, Jr- appeared as counsel.
The Witnesses for the prosecution were sani-
taTy Officers Pierce and Ourand, and DIR. Wal
lace VINO resulted that The pens were, in their
opiniop an eve sore and q nuisance. and the
ISttPr that they were calculated to cause dis
ease On the part of the defense, some ten or
twelve Witnesses were examined, the most of
them residents and persons doing business in
The vicinity, and they testified that the pens
never annoyed them, although some testified
that they could scent them MI. Bradley con-
tfuded that the testimony was not such as to
warrant the Justice condemning the pens as q
nuisance.
The Justice reserved his decision, and this
morning announced that he considered II a
nuisance in the eyes of The law, and should
80 enter Judgment.
The Justice issu ned an order for the remoya,
OF the pen on or before the 18th instant.

RAILROAD RESOLUTIONS.

The Epstein Railroad Resolutions hav-
ing passed the Assembly, it is worth while
land curious) to note some facts in con-
nection with their history. In the early
part of the session, Cutter, Of this county,
introduced a series of resolutions which
proposed the asking Of $l0,0O0,00o for
the Freeport and Washoe Railroad Com
pany, or for any associated body of
capitalists that would build road from
Freeport Tor Latrobe) to the State Capital
of Nevada, or to Virginia city. These
resolutions would have passed the Assem-
bly,, in all probability, had their passage
been Immediately urged. But after a
week or two, strong opposition disclosed
itself, and the resolutions of Gutter, after
having been favorably recommended,
unanimously, by a special committee,
were referred to the Committee on Federal
Relations Mr.. Haskell, of Esmeralda,
Chairman and reported against. Then,
Epstein introduced his substitute. From
the vote on the introduction Of this SUBJ
stitute, their supporters have remained
nearly the same. Whether changes have
been brought in their favor, have been
procured by the arguments in converse
ton or the personal influence of members
of the Legislature, or the demand of con-
stituenss-not through lobbyers; as is
intimated and even asserted in some quar-.
tiers. In the discussion on these resolu-
tions-very protracted-in the Assembly,
the opponents of the resolutions occupied
nine-tenths of the time.
Here are the resolutions as they passed
the Assembly, and come up for action
IN the Senate on Monday evening next:
WHEREAS, The speedy completion and
establishment of railway communication
between the navigable tide waters of the
Pacific and the mining districts of Nevada
is vitality important to the interests of this
State, therefore be it
Resolved, By the Assembly, the Senate
concurring, that our Senators be and are
hereby instructed, and our Representa-.
tives in Congress requested, to use theil
utmost endeavors to secure the passage o.
law by Congress giving the sum of ter
10) millions of dollars ($l0, Oo0, O00) IL
United States Bonds, at date Of thirty
years or less, to such corporation as shall
first complete line Of railway, and estab.
ish the same in perfect running order
without break or interval Of stage tran.
sportation, between the nayigable waters
Of the Sacramento River and the base o.
the eastern slope Of the Sierra Nevadas.
Rssolced, That his Excellency the Gov
ernor be requested to transmit copy o.
these resolutions to each Of our SenAton
and to our Representative in Congress.

English Precedents.

From the New York Times of January
9th, we take the following:
zone of Mr.. Stevens arguments is,
that in the war with Napoleon, England
did what he proposes to do. We deny it.
But supposing it to be true, what of it
We are getting sick of having the example
of England cited in defense of every out
rage or absurdity which any portion of the
American public takes it into its head to
perpetrate. No sooner does any officer Of
the government, or anybody else in the
United States, commit any act, or make
any proposition more than usually indie
fensible and foolish, than host of in
dustrious antiquarians and scholars 60 to
work to see if, at some time or other, Eng
land has not been guilty of something of
the same kind and if it appears that she
has, they flourish the precedent in our
faces with an air of triumph, as if that
settled the question. Some people really
seem to be under the impression that our
national career is a sort OF a race In ras-
cality with England, IN which our sole
object is to keep abreast with her or only
one step behind her, and that 1t makes no
difference what we say or do as long as
we can show that she has SAID or done
something as bad or absurd. But we
surely have code of honor ana morsiity
of our own. Surely, the exposures OF ner
various delinquencies which we constantly
hear from the press and platform, are IN
tended to serve other purposes than to
furnish models for imitation to our own
fools and knaves. Her history has much
in it that is instructive, but by. iar the
larger portion of it instructs rather BY
warning than by example"
