W.
weeks ago, intending it for to-day, but
since then a disagreeablc change Of
weather has come DER the spirit OF onr
poetic vision. Ii was showing this
morning when we got ont Of bed SILVER
ing and gszed Gloomily on u lowering,
stormy SKY. II don't seem II bit like
"May-day," and all nature looks most
automatically miserable. The ice-
cream man was doing n fine business a
day or two since, pcldling ont his cool
ing, delicious commodity, but not to-
day. The poor fellow put on his over
coat and mittcus and started out this
morning bound to toot his horn,
but alas I the notes were frozen up and
he couldn't raise n toot. He's all right,
though he can wait u little longer ;
his wares will keep, this weather.
Spring is coming, fast.
PrrgR's OrxsA HousI.-Anothc me-
lodeon performance was given last night
ut the Opera House. The entertainment
was very good, hut our thcasre-goers
are eyidenuy holding back for the great
treat offered Tonight in the excellent
five-act play of the Willow Copse,' in
which Mr.. Couldoek aud daughter will
make their first appearance in this State.
The play is one Of Boucicalt's finest
pieces, and had Il great run in San Fran

the whole evening. The leading char
actcr, Luke Fielding, will be assumed
by Mr.. Couliock, while Miss Couldock

Thayer that Of Sir Richard vaughan.
Woodland will appear Is Dick Hulks,
Burbank as Bill Stsggers, Westwood rs
Colonel Vanguard, and Amanda Lee as
Lucy Yanguard-rest of the characters
by the company. Luke Fielding is one
OF Mr.. Couldock's best representations,
and no lover Of good acting should fail
TO see il. Mss Couldock is u most tai
eu,ed and pleasing actress, and is sure
to become n fayorite with all capable OF
apprcciating true art. There will be no
baking or dragging about the piece, as
all who are cast in it are perfect in the
parts assigned them. The usual matt

Roor TugN OUr.-The proper author
tiles in Virginia city are doing n very
good work, just at the present time, in
going through tho lists Of voters regis
tered in each Ward and carefully OK
punging all who are not legally entitled
to vote. The Copperheads are deter
mined on carrying the city election on
Monday next by fair mean or foul, they
care not which. therefore, they have re-
sorted to illegal registration, as has al
ready been proven IN tho names e1-
plunged thus far. The list will be very
materially reduced. \ fair deal say we.
If there arc any Union men illegally
registered there, root them out, AS we'll
rs the interlopiug Cops.
WARS IN RuMoRs OF WARs.-We are
pleased TO learn that the story we board
about the Honey Lake stage being "t-
tackled by Indians recently, and the
driver and passengers mnssaered, WAS
untrue, and also that the troubles with
the Iudians in the Long Valley section
have been ~magutied and exaggerated.
No other persons have been killed by
them since the massacre OF the Pierson
family, but they certainly have commit
ted considerable depredations in the
way Of stealing and running OF the cat-
tie and horses Of the settlers.

ties. uatil further notice is given, the
