Is IT TnuE If so, wuo's TO BLAME.

1t Is claimed, and the press Of the coun
try is giving considerable attention u
the subject, that there is u growing
l~ooseness in behavior, and n genera.
disrespectful and irresponsible eonaue'
exhibited by the youth in all the ia.se
towns. We believe 1t to be true tna'
it is growing, and that it aemana an
inquiry into its causes and euofts LOT us
,rc,tnent. A learned writer emark
Let society look we'll to its component
nor,s. and its cohesive power, or it will
fail Of lis own inertia into the vortex OF
misrule and anarchy" These words
are apropos if the general demeanor OF
the youth of this geueration-judged by
\ standard of intrinsic excellence, then
somebody is to blame, and every one
having any influence for good, any re-
spect for rightful authority, any desire
for a civilized and ciyilizing
ment, ask himself or herself, IN all SIN
cerity and solemnity, SIS 1t Il Let
us not forget the order OF natural
growth, nor deceive ourselves Win
pleasant decisions. Boyhood and girl.
hood are preliminary TO manhood ana
~womanhood. OF these elements society
;s formed and its character, obviously,
dsnends on the character Of these con-
slant accretious. II these elements have
heen rightly instructed they will assim-
;la,e with society, and it will be prohted
by the addition but if authority mas
had no force ; if justice and equai'ty
have been sacrificed to selishness II
becomes unsafe, unsound, and on tho
high road to dissolution.
Tur,rER To-SIGHr.-There will be
another performance at u local thea'er
tonight, which We hope will be well
pa~tronized. We all like occasionally TO
20 to a place Of amusement d Few
hours thus spent At n respectable place
gives a zest of contentmcnt and comtor
10 our pilgrimage through life, which
makes us feel more at peace with our
selves and the rest OF mankind, ana
tends to convince US that joy n hap
piness are generally within reach II we
only learn to avail ourselves OF them.
Let us all 90 to the theater tonight, and
stop croaking about hard times. There
are tens Of millions Of dollars IN the
Comstock ledge, and we are all bound

castles" "Tae Fool of the Family

FALK & Co.'S FRUIT Store. - We
would call the attention Of the fruit ana
confectionery dealers of Gold Hill, Sill
yer City, and Dayton, to the store OF
Palk L Co., No. 60 south c street, 'ir-
ginia, next door to Spaulding's saloon
where they san find the most eSten-
siye stock Of all kinds OF fruit ana con
dictionaries in this State, ana wnich
are sold at the very lowest cash prices
AS :squick sales and small profits IS
the business motto Of this house. taik
4 Co., daily receive fresh goods, n
especially the choicest fruits from inc
extensive orchards OF Mr.. Briggs, OF
Marysyille. Falk is q liberal and nom
est man to deal with. He also deals
largely in canned fruits, put up IN al
.ifornia and millmen can obtain the
very best Of lard-oil, put up specially
for this market.
P1pER's OPERA HousE.-Last evening
Miss Kathleen O'Nail made her last APP
pearance at the Opera House and oy
request, it was made q ladies night
tina, is, drinking and smoking were not
allowed aud the jokes OF some OF the
prominent performers were toned down
about one hundred and fifty per cent:
The dress circle seats were well hlled
with ladies and their Notwithstanding
one of the days Of the legitimate. To-
night, Miss Fanny Hanks makes her hrst
appearance in q piece never before per-
formed on this side Of the mountains.
PATENT "SAsssyGERs."- Among the
patents granted lately was one for "im-
proved composition for ssusages." This,
we think, is q very necessary improve
ment. We have heard of u composition
of dog, red flannel, wild thyme and tur-
nips, as q composition for "sassengers,'
but we don't think it was ever patented.
ANYTHING by way Of a change, especially
in our Eastern cities, will be an I'M
provement. We prefer our dog dH manu-
ralye; it is better that way. The admlx-
ture of red flannel don't help it.
CRuELrY.-Last evening we heard a
man Boosting of his capacity to beat a
mule, and we protested agains. the prac-
tice of beating them over the head, at
least, but like o great many others VINO
may once have had some humanity, ne
has become so hardened that 1t seems
10 him to beat Il poor, dumb animal Is
n righteous act. Now that winter IS
here, we hope those owning teams will
see that all men having charge OF teams
are men, and not beasts, Us many were
who drove last winter.
D~IsoRpERLy. - An intoxicated man
last evening tried to drive a horse n
light wagon over a crowd of men and
boys on Main street, opposite the Thea
ter, while they were listening to the
songs and anecdotes Of Yankee Lou,
who was showing up the good qualities
of his razor-strop paste. There was no
one injured except Lou himself, who
had his leg scatched by the wheel. The
mischieyous driver was arrested by
Marshal Cummings.
