obliged to sing such strong language as

the plate was sent round-as he might hap

He was not very sure that he knew what
'creation's blank" meant !; but, at all events,
he did not care to be called it. Physical

Large as was the Xpenditure-much

system of election could be justi-

Edinburgh election cost the three can

the election expenses amounted to $4,000
and $1,000; on the other hand, a lucky
member got in for less than $l00; another
for $3.50; and yet another for less than $500.
MIR. Graham, elected to represent Glasgow,
paid little bill OF $4,000, of which $3.50
were for "postage," whatever that may
stand for in an English election account.
MIR. Ramsay, who ran against Mr.. Graham

that luxury. ..........-.. .....- ......... .

hope to represent such expensive con-

many of tile evils and corruptions which
used to attend the English elections-but
there is still room as well as growing de-
mand for improvement. Before the pass
age of the reform bill Lord Milton spent
half million dollars in contesting York

! Dealing with oil sorts of people whose
peculiarities and foibles must all be ac-
comlnodated, submitting in patience to the
most incorrigible bcres, tormented by in
Vulnerable school children who make q
point of coming to enquire for letters four

people whose papers have not come, the P.
NJ. has not an easy time Oft. Old Job had
an easier. A man who has kept Post Office
one year successfully need have no fears
as to his future state.
Between three and four thousand letters
are received for delivery at the office in
this place every quarter, Of which about
two hundred and fifty fail to reach the par
ties addressed and are returned to the
Dead Letter Office. These letters remain
in the office from six to eight weeks, the
longest time allowed by law, before being
"sent up" Every effort is made to find
owners for them, and some of them are al
most worn out in going the rounds OF

REDEMPTION OF TOWN WAR
RANTS.

Another opportunity is now offered the
holders of town warrants drawn on the
Redemption Fund, to get their money.
The Town Trustees have advertised for
the redemption of such warrants to the
amount of $1,000. There are some $4,000
in the Redemption Fund, and probably
after the above smopns is paid out in the
redemption Of warrants, proposals to the
amount of the remaining sum will be
made for the redemption of town bonds.
People hold Gold Hill scrip high. When
bids to the amount Of $4,000 were adver-
tised for about two months ago, the pro-
posals received did not amount to that
sum-, and none of the bids were lower
than ninety cents on the dollar, while
most of them were made at ninety-ive
cents. We expect that the bids that will
be put in this week will not be lower than
the former ones. We see no reason why
they should be so. The law requires that
certain moneys be set apart for the re-
demption OF outstanding debts, and the
proportion is so large that the indebted
ness ofl,he town will rapidly be l~iquidated,
iC the Trustees manage TO run the town
government on the money tina. comes into
the Contingent Fund. without mourning
any new debt.

Coon FARMING IN kANsAs.-The AL
bany Argus prints a letter from Wyan-
do,te, Kansas, which tells the following
story of profitable farming in tina. State
Kansas is really a magnificent State, and
one of vast capabilities. My recent trip,
high up on the line Of the Union Pacific
Railway, has convinced me of this. Let
me here relate a fact. In 1860, ar Irish
woman widow-whose only means
consisted of $500 in money, and some
half dozen children, took lG0 acres Of
Government land. Since then she has
increased this, by assistance Of her chill
dren, until she now owns 1900 acres, all
paid for. This year she sold her butter,
made last year, for 5000. She has re-
Gently sold the balance Of her last years
corn crop, 1900 bushels, for 81 so pei
bushel-$S.l 100. Last week she sold %
head Of oxen for S75 each-$l,65O. She
sold her bacon and hams for some $500,
So that the produce Of the farm, over and
above keeping the family, has been over
$4,000. She has now on hand l60 head
of cattle of oil sizes /; for % of which she
refused $50 each. She has 20 firkins Of
butter in the cellar, which average l20 lbs
each /; and which she says she will get Is
cents a pound for, by taking it to some Of
the United States posts higher up. She
has, also, hogs in abundance, and 65 acres
of growing corn, which will produce sc
bushels to the acre. Now this seems like
exaggeration, but it is literally true.

CocxNEY.-Among the most prominent
of the Constitutional Democrats" who
appeared in Carson last Saturday, was a
fellow who is known as "Cockney," a
distinguished native of st. Giles, Lon
don. The Virginia Onion makes mention
Of the good service done by this truly con-
sistent Democrat in attempting to pick the
poke, Of our candidate for Congress, Mr..
Ashley. 1t is rather an unfortunate cir
cumstance for the Copperheads that the
Union chose to place Cockney in so PROM
inent a position, in view of the fact that
last Fall while he was under a sentence Of
ninety days in the county Jail, he was per-
mitted o brief season of liberty to take
part in a broom-ranger procession. His
career of crime had fitted him for tina,
duty, and he performed it with truly ode
mocratic alacrity.

WANT THE YANKEE ISvISTION.-The
London Times gives an account OF a min
ing accident which happened at California
Pit, Penning. near Wigan, by which eight
miners lost their lives. Il would not
have happened had safety-cages, such as
we have in most of our Washoe mines,
been in use there. The eight men were
being hoisted from the mine on the cage,
and were near the top of the shaft, when
the rope ran off the reel, which caused it
to break and let the cage with its load OF
human beings fall a distance of go yards.
Mining is a dangerous business at best,
and it seems is as dangerous in the old
English districts as in the new ones OF
Washoe. ,

writes:
at is difficult to imagine q more desc

positive sepulchre. Its sloping hills, once
covered with picturesque gardens, are
transformed into arid wastes /; one can no
longer distinguish the places where the
vines grew. and a barren moss replaces all
the verdure which formed, ten years ago,
such a charming panorama. The country
is depopulated and despoiled of all its
commerce. The factories are deserted ;
the cultivation of tobacco, which might
compete with that of the Turkish, declines
every day and the landed proprietors
have almost entirely renowned making
wine. We were accustomed to see a
whole feet of barges, full Of fruit, issuing
from the port. The importation now is

NOVEL ROBBERY. "A novel robbery

While walking through a cross street he

the man apparently tainted. The young
nan rendered all the assistance in his
