FARE y GRuB TO SALT LAxE.-We
learn from our old friend, Uncle Billy
Leet, who has recently made the trip to
Salt Lake and back. that so far as accom-
modations were concerned, both on stage
and az the different stations along the
route. tina, nothing could be more excel
lent. A. TO the road. S20.0 900 expended
between Gold Hill and Austin would sur
mount all the difficulties of the route, and
for the distance travelled make this road
one of the mos; pleasant and agreeable TO
De found in the United States. So far as
grub WAS concerned. like q provident
man as he is, Uncle Billy took along with
him all desirable refreshments OF a liquid
and permanent character. On his return,
however. from Salt Lake. noticing the
character Of the houses or stations At which
the stages stopped, he concluded TO trust
70 fortune and good luck, and came
through. a. a matter Of course, success
fully. without any p%rovident care than
such as is afforded on any established line
in the United States. He represented TO
US tha, business in Salt Lake was good.
even exciting. from the demand made upon
Salt Lake for all imaginable articles for
Montana and other mining regions, Of
which Salt Lake is the center Of trade.
REGULAR CoSvENTIoS.-The regular
Union County Convention will NEE, at
the Club Room Of the Second Ward, Vir-
ginia, on Monday next. at noon, to
finish the nominations OF County and
Township officers. We sincerely hope il
will adjourn until evening OF that day,
and meet the other Convention, and effect
a reconciliation. We ask this in all sim
cerity. hoping for nothing but the success
Of the Party at the next election. Let
harmony be restored before il is TOO late.
Let there be oil of wisdom and kindness
thrown upon the troubled waters Of our
Union family. II it amt done-the fur

altar Of faction, we tender this advice

The OPERA Houss.-Max Walters
theatre melodeon was well attended last
evening" and everybody seemed to enjoy
themselves hugely. We did not enjoy
the felicity of being present. but those
who were all agree IN speaking highly OF
the merits of the performance given. The
afterpiece was particularly funny. Laugh
and grow fat" is an old but very pertinent
saying. and it i, a wei. known and es-
,ablished fact that ali the fattes, men in
the city are those who go to see Max Wal
,er's talented company in their highly en-
tertaining and amusing entertainments.
Look out for the " Red Gnome." The
theatre will be crowded tonight.
CARSON CIrY.-This little rectangular
place. located admidst a ssgebrush plain,
received a god-send this week in the way
Of Conventions. TO have noticed the
placid smiles of its citizens, the gentle
5on-hopaHls with which they greeted all and
several. one would have thought that they
considered their embryo city as the center
OF civilization and the hub Of the universe.
Very well. then, you know the old adage
Of the ill wind" and We hope and trust
you prof,ed by :he numerous sssemblages
taken under your charge. We have heard
no complaints, 50 far, from the returned
delegates, and hope you are doing well.

Why IT WAS DoNR.-Jenkins says that
the reason Storey county got the Surveyor
Generalship on the State ticket, was, that
this functionary might stand upon the
rocky heights Of Mount Davidson. and
,urvey the vast field Of political discord
which exists just now in the ranks OF a
certain party. But, Jenkins is a foo-foo-
and given to joking.
