p,pvp,.RosA.-Next Monday evening

House. Virginia, together with her very
talented troupe Of accompanies. A
treat of unequaled excellence in the
musical line awaits all who are so for
tunate as to be in attendance ut either
of her three concerts. All the public
journals of the East and California are
loud, earnest, and some even extrava-
CANT in their praise Of this remarkable
artistic. Euphrosine Pareps-Rosa is Of
Scottish nativity, being born in Edin-
burgh in the year 1889. She is Of illus
trious ~parentage, and besides her high
musical powers and education, she is n
talented linguist, speaking fuently
English, Italian, French, German Int
Spanish. Left au orphan at an early
age, circumstances induced her to avail
herself of her rare talents MS n
singer and appear upon the operatic
stage, which she did, appearing for the
first time publicly in opera at Malta, in
1855, her debut being n most brilliant
and iattering success. Since then she
has appeared prominently before the
musical world in Europe and America,
eyer triumphant everywhere. Her voice
is one of remarkable compass, wonder
full execution and astonishing power.
But we will not anticipate or endeavor
to forestall public opinion. Next Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings,
ali who choose eau hear and judge for
themselves. All who have not already
secured seats will find it decidedly for
their advantage to do so Immediately by
calling at the box Office Of the theatre.

DEspoypESr.-A couple of forlorn
looking Democrats stood by the road
side last Wednesday evening, wistiully
gazing on the gay and glorious torch
light Union procession passing dow
Gold Canyon. Suddenly one Of them
turned away with an impatient gesture,
and drew a long breath. "Oh +! what
the hell's the use, Jerry" says he.
"Just look at these ere dam fellers /;
here they've been n passin' us for the

less than two miles Of 'em n comm yet.

BALLor-BoX SroLES.-Bob Lowery
was up before his namesake, the Vir-

morning, for some one or the other
of his manifold besetting sins and trans
pressions. we cannot imagine what the
policeman should be going through
Bob's vest pockets for, unless he was
searching for that Fourth Ward ballot,
box that is missing. Why Bob should
min that ballot-box is more than we can
understand, for the Democracy will have
no possible use for those things this
fall, neither in Virginia or any other
part Of Storey County.
