PAHRANAaAr. - Messrs. Haines and
Salisbury, of the Southern Mail 4 Ex-
press Company, arrived in this city from
P~ahranagat on Friday last. They
brought with them q box containing
thirty-one pounds Of bullion, which was
shipped to New York by Wells, Fargo &
Co.'s Express, the value of which was
$500. This bullion is from ore taken
out of the Illinois Lode, and crushed at
Raymond & Co.'s mill, at Hico. These
gentlemen represent that there are now
four tunnels being run through the, ILL
nois lead, and every days work shows
an increase of its rich developments.
The present process now used for ex-
tracing the metal is much superior to
that hitherto used, which has been the
reason of. the delay in establishing to
the world the fact of the existence Of
vast riches which lie buried in this sill
yer country. Messrs. Hosmer and Day
have found ore so rich in the Utah and
Nevada lodes that they are shipping it
in great quantities to mills in, Austin.
In the meantime they are making pre-
p~srations to erect mills near their lodes.
These gentlemen speak in glowing terms
of the climate, and are quite sanguine
of the bright prospects Of the future Of
Pshranagat.-Sah Lake Ndete, Feb. 10.

Taste n MornI Quality.

l want you to think a little, says Rus
kin, Of the deep significance Of this
word "taste,'' for no statement Of mine
has been more earnestly or oftener con-
ttoverted than that good taste is essen
TALLY q moral quality "No," say many
of my antagonists, ''taste is INT thing
morality is another. Tell US what is
purity; we shall be glad to know that;
but preach no sermons to u.s."
Permit me, therefore, to fortify this
old dogma, of mine somewhat. Taste is
not only a part and an index Of morality,
it is the only morality. The first and
last and closest trial question to any
living creature is: "What do you like2"
Tell me what you like, and I'll tell you
what you are. Go out into the street,
and ask the first man or woman you
meet, what their "taste'' is; and, if they
answer candidly, you know them body
and soul. "You, my friend, in the rags,
with the unsteady gait, what do you
like?"-''A pipe, and a quartern GIN"
| know you. "You, good woman, with
the quick step and tidy bonnet, what do
you like?"-"Aswep hearth and a clean
tea-table, and my husband opposite me,
and a baby at my breast" Good l
know you also. "You, little girl, with
the golden hair and soft eyes, what do
you likeT'-"My canary, and a run
among the wood byacinths." "You,
little boy, with the dirty hands and low
forehead, what do you like2'-"A shy
at the sparrows, and a game at pitch
farthing." Good we know them all
now. What more need we ask
"Nay," perhaps you answer, 1--WE
need rather ask what these people and
children do than what they like. If
they do right, 1t is no matter that they
like what is right. Doing is the great
thing, and it does. not matter that the
man likes drinking, so that he does not
drink; nor that the little girl likes to be
kind to her canary, if she will not learn
her lessons; nor that the little boy likes
throwing stones at the sparrows, if he
goes to Sunday School" Indeed, for q
short time, and ina provisional sense,
this is true. For if 'resolutely people
do what is right, in time they come to
like doing it. But they only are in a
right moral state when they have come
to like doing it; and, as long as they
don't like it, they are still in a vicious
state. The man Is not in health of body
who is always thirsting for'the bottle in
the cupboard, thouHh'he' bravely bears
his thirst; but the man who heartily en-
joys water in the morning and wine in
the evening, each in its proper quantity
and time. Aud the entire object of true
education is to make people NOT merely
do the right things, but enjoy the right
things-not. merely industrious, but to
love industry-not merely learned, but
to love knowledge-not merely pure,
but to love purity-not merely just, but
to hunger and thirst after justice.

STUDY OF THE BIBLE.-Looking at the
Bible merely as an historical fact as q
power in the world, which has influence
ed the opinions, and directed the life,
and quickened the heart of millions ;
which has been inspiration to the great
est minds Of the race; which has lifted
up nations from barbarism ; which has
been the spring Of that philanthropy
which is the boast Of our civilization ;
and which is now the protested guide of
three hundred millions of our fellow
men; surely these facts, apart from any
consideration Of its Divine origin, Of its
claims to be a revelation from God, de-
mand for It a respectful attention and
diligent study, from any one who would
be considered a vast informed and intel
ligent man.

BERLIN, Feb. 24.-The session of the
first Parliament of the North German
States was formally opened yesterday.
The King Of Prussia, members of the
Royal family and Bismark were present.
The King, in his speech from the throne
said he was encircled as no German
Prince had been for ages. All, the
hopes for the future welfare Of the
nation now rested on the accomplish
ment of the fact Of a united Germany.
He recommends to the people the form
alton Of a new constitutional union,
which would be defensive in It's charac-
ter and give unity, liberty and power to
Fatherland.

SUPPOSED FATAL MAN
MIssrSa.-On Thursday night last, q
cabin situated on the Lake Bigler Road
about four miles from here, occupied by
a man named Chas. G.. Chadwick, a
wood-chopper, and another man, name
unknown 70 US, was swept down the
mountain by a % slide. Our inform
ant says that Chadwick's companion es-
capped unhurt. But the cabin is buried
and so is Chadwick. At last accounts
the buried man had not been brought TO
the surface. II seems impossible that
he is alive even though the cabin may
be uninjnred under the avalanche.

The Storey COUNTY School BrLt.-A

The SroREY COUNTY School BILL.-A
bill regarding the Public Schools OF Sto-
rey county, has been before the Legisla-
ture for q week or two, awaiting its en-
actment into a law. Our contemporary,
the Ea.erpri,s, this morning, without
having ever seen a copy of the bill,
comes out fercely and denounees it a
"robbery,"' "a s~windle,' etc. We have
seen q copy of the bill, and having care
fully examined its provisions, we beg to
differ with our neighbor over the hill,
who, writing from "rumor," entirely
misrepresents the measure. In the first
place, the bill does not provide for asal-
airy for the Clerk Of Board Of Education.
The ''rumor'' Of the Enterprise says it
does provide for a 500 per month for
that officer. The bill simply provides
that the Board may allow q compensa-
ton. This is one hundred dollars of
the "rumored" school expense. Again,
the Enterprise says that the Superiutend-
ent Of Schools shall be one of the Board
Of Examiners, and that be a draw q
salary, as such, Of twenty-five dollars
per "month." Wrong again. The bill
provides that the Board Of Education
shall constitute a Board Of Examiners
whom necessary-and for which service,
taken in connection as also constitut-
ing tho Board Of Education, each
member may receive a yearly salary Of
not exceeding one hundred dollars. Here,
then, is . discrepancy in the run'or Of
the Eaterpris, Of n hundred and
twenty-five dollars per monitor fifteen
hundred dollars a year. The Superin-
tendent of Public Schools is allowed,
by this bill, two hundred dollars In cur
rency per month for his services as such.
Now, whoever knows the valuable ser
vices Of Col. Collins in behalf Of the
Public Schools Of Storey county, cannot
but admit that he would earn every dol
lar Of it. So much for the rumored
blunders Of the Enterprise. The Board
Of County Commissioners levied a tax
of Is cents on the 500 for school pur-
poses Of the year Of 1866 and 1867,
which tar will be exhausted in the
month Of April next; and unless the
present bill passes, which provides for
the raising of money to keep the schools
in operation until the taxes Of the ensu-
ing year are collected, the schools will
close in May next, and remain closed
until the collection of the taxes payable
about December, 1867. There are eleven
schools in this county, and more are
required, particularly in Gold Hill
where there are one hundred and ten
scholars in two rooms and also in the
Fourth Ward in Virginia, where there
arc siIty-four scholars. The cost Of
keeping open the schools, the past year,
was about sal 900. Thirty,;csnts on the
800 Oasis $50, oOO) will yield $4,000
only; but from the State fines, ETC., the
amount received will be sufficient to
keep the schools open in Storey county
ten months in the year. We hope the
Storey and the "outside" delegations
will pass the new law. It is necessary
for Storey county.

Greeley at Speaker Colfax's Receptio
Horace Greeley, while in Washington
a few days since, concluded to attend
the reception Of Speaker ColfaI. He
arrayed himself in his usual neat and
fashionable costume-boots like young
gun-boats, %pantaloons rather the worse
for wear, Of Chatham street stock, cheap
and old fashioned; black silk kerchief
tied around his neck as you'd tie a wisp
Of straw round q bundle Of c~orn-stalks,
overcoat long threadbare, and dirty
withal-the whole s~urmounted by q
hat Of the fashion Of twenty years ago,
hung on the back Of his head, and in
clined at an angle Of forty-fve degrees.
Arrived at the speakers mansion on
Four-and-a-half street, "the Tribune
philosopher found a large and elegant
iy dressed crowd Of ladies and gentle
men pressing their way to the parlor.
On such occasions there is always q
great deal of trouble with the hackmen.
They will insist upon disregarding the
rules in these cases made and provided,
that they shall move to the other side
of the street as fast as they are relieved
o their gay and precious burdens, so as
to prevent general blockade and to make
way for those yet to come. On this oc-
~casiou, Mr.. Greeley was leisurely wait
ing on the door steps for the rush" to
cease, when a Milesian gentleman, who
had been officiating as a sort Of outside
usher, dashed at him in a ct Of greatrage,
and told him il he didn't move on his
id old hack, he'd start his team for
him and let them 60 to hell If they liked.
The Tribune philosopher reminded his
sssailant that this was a clear case of
mistaken identity. "Im not a hack
driver, sir, you are mistaken altogeth-
err" "Ain't you the owner Of that pair
of grsysP' inquired the officiating Hi
bernian. "No sir; my name is Horace
Greedy; I've coma to attend the recep-
tion." The truth now flashed upon the
Irishman's mind that he had grossly In
suited the editor Of the Tribune, and he
commenced spologizing. "You see,
air." said he, 1--WE have . great deal Of
trouble with those hsck-drivers, and
upon my honor sir, when I saw you
standing there, I thought you were the
man that dhruv up that pair o. horses"
Greeley laughed, said no apology was
necessary, and walked in to see Colfsx
and the reception. 20
