The follow ing, from the pen of George
D. Prentice, is, We think, unsurpassed,
and know of nothing more beautiful:
There is but breath of air and beat
of the heart betwixt this world and the
next. And in the brief interval Of pain
and awful suspense, while we feel that
death is present with MS, that we are pow
erless, and He al powerful, and the faint
pulsation here is but the preclude of end
less life hereafter, We feel in the midst of
the stunning calamity about TO befall US,
the earth has no cnmpensating good to
mitigate the severity of our loss. But
there is no grief without some beneficient
pro ision to soften its intenseness. When
the good and lovely die, the memory of
their good deeds, like the moon beams on
the stormy sea, lights. up our darkencd
heart, and lends to the surrounding gloom
a beauty so sad, so sweet, that he would
not, if he could, dispel the darkness that
envifons him.

Stick TO one Thing.

There are many farmers who do not
stick TO one thing long enough to make il
pay, and consequently they lose in every
thing. AT one time they conclude TO de-
vote themselves TO stock-raising. Before
they get fairly Under good headway in
this, they change their minds and go back
to raising grain. Some again make q spe-
cialiiy, for q time, of certain CROP
wheat, corn, or potatoes, for instance.
While they are following this speciality,
The crops may be small and the prices
low, and they turn to another just in time
to miss large crops and good prices in
what they have left.
The best farmers we have observed are
those who first find out what their soil is
best adapted TO produce. They then turn
their energies in that direction and go
straight forward in that line. A poor crop
does not discourage them. Low prices do
not discourage them. They keep on, and
are sure to be finally successful
To illustrate our idea: We once knew
farmer who always made it a point to
fatten from twenty five to thirty hogs
every year. Let the price of pork be high
or low, he every year had his lot of hogs
of about the usual number. lie took great
pride in having the best in the ncighbor-
hood. Some years, perhaps, he might
have done better by selling his corn in
stead of feeding it. Some years, perhaps,
he might have done better by turning his
whole attention 10 some other specially in
farming. But we always noticed this
that, taking one year with another for a
long time, say ten years. he made the hogs
pay. lie was successful farmer.
Another, farmer, near by, every yeaI
planted potatoes. Sometimes his crop
would fail, and sometimes when he had a
good crop the price would be low. But
he kept straight forward. Every spring
he planted potatoes. The result in bis
case was the same as that in the other.
Taking one year with another for con
siderable number Of years, he made the
potato crop pay. He, too, was success
ful farmer. Ha ns hseaei

ness pay, must have policy, and must
adhere to it. Farmers Magazine.

thus employed. Their only stain being
that they represented so many dollars Of
property, but for this they were not to
blame. The field hands were the chattel
and nothing else.
The master had certain labor to be done.
The negro represented part of the capital
Invested which had to bring its interest and
return itself within certain time
Tn, ne - was lought and worked
for this purpose, and when he died the
calculation in money matters was correct
or the opposite. The whole relation of
The negro to his master was that of horse
representing capital which should not be
lost until II had returned itself and could
then be laughingly lost.
Take the exhausting labor of the negro
under such circumstances, the hard beastly
treatment he was subject TO, no education
but an eternal monotony of labor on the
field; no free will but machine. And
this was according to these smoot faced
apostles bringing the negro under the be-
nign influence of Christianity. Man repre-
representing but an aritlmctical cipher in
the sums of material values.
Oh. Christianity. oh. Democracy, What
wonder that the negro Gid not make the
same progress in the South as in the North
What wonder that he forgot what individ
yiduality is. Will Vero say that this con
diti0n was the natural consequence of his
being negro? Go to Europe ana observe
how similar conditions existed the former
ly and though seventy five years have pass
ed, there arc unmistakeable traces that
even the white race can degenerate to ere
tins and half idiots. But what have the
negroes down South done since they be-
came free? They have erected schools and
churches as the elements of advancement,
They have laborcd under the disadvantage
of low wages and yet have put money in
To savings banks. They have dene as
much as the white race could or would
have done under similar circumstances
They lave made progress although Vcro
viii deny it, and saved by this the princi-
pie Of their humanity, be this however of
an inferior kind so far Having seen that
the negro isby being negro not prevent
ed from elevaiing himself as high as the
average of the white race may come and
that the low condition of the fccdmen if
there is such low condition, absolutely is
not want of intrinsic value but the result
OF adverse circumstances forced upon him,
VIC come to the conclusion that, III free,

Double Tragedy at Virginia
City, Nevada.

We are informed by an cmploye of
Wells, Fargo & Co, who came down on
the train yesterday, that man known as
'Russian Pete" whose real name is Peter
Hill, stole at Silver City, Saturday even
ing, watch and sum ofmoney, amounting
in the aggregate to about $50. After ad-
hitting the theft he went to Virginia
City. Deputy Sheriff Gregory was inform
ed of the facts, and arrested Pete on sun
day afternoon, but his prisoner subsequent
ly escaped from him, and passing through
the city took refuge, armed with reyol-
yer, in an old tunnel of the Chollar- Potosi
mine. Gregory followed and demanded
that he should surrender. The fugitive
answered that he was armed-had twelve
shots at his dispesal-and would not be
taken alive. The officer returned 10 the
city and informed Sheriff Mulcahy of the
situation. 4 double barrelcd shot gun
was procured. and the officers went Immc
diatcly to the tunnel or rather the Sheriff
did, his deputy following after while.
Arrived there, Mulcahy inquired of by
ISLANDERS in what portion OF the tunnel,
Pete had hidden himself A man named
Williams, formerly blacksmith in the
employ of the Gould & Curry company,
started TO point out the locality. As they
entered the tunnel Bill fired, the ball pas
sing through Williams heart. The un
fortunate man fell to the earth and expir-
cd, without having uttered a word after
receiving tho wound. News Of the event
quickly circulated, and crowd collected.
Meanwhile, one or two other shots had
been heard in the tunnel, but no notice was
taken of .hcm at the time. Presently
force went in to'capture the murderer,
when he was found dead, having put the
muzzle of the pistol in his mouth and
blown out his brains. Williams was n
member of the Masonic fraternity. and
man highly esteemed by those who knew
him. The murderer and suicide is spoken

ems war.
Here is, perhaps, as striking contrast
as was ever presented between two candi-
dates for the highest offices In the gift of

General Grant promises to administer
all the laws in good faith, with economy,
and with a view of giving peace, quiet and
protection everywhere"
General Blair promises to "dcclare the
Reconstruction laws null and void," and
TO compel the army TO "disperse the
Southern State Governments"
General Grant declares that he will
execute the VIII OF InU pU,.f A."
General Blair declares that he will ''com-
pei the Senate (he representatives OF the
people, TO submit, TuO.
General Grant promises .speace aud uni
versal prosperity" through the quiet en-
forcement Of law"
General Blair promises anarchy, war,
and dcsOlation, by ''tramplng into the
dust" the laws Of Congress.
General Grant ferventIy and honestly
says, "Let us have peace"
General Blair declares that he means to
have another civil war.
General Grant says he always respected
the will Of the people, and always will res
pect it.
General Blair declares that he means TO
be a Dictator, to destroy State Govern
