White Pine Letter.

~ w ~ ~
The following is the j%ollies. letter we
have yet seen from White Pine. 1t was
written 10 Dick Preston, at Virginia,
who kindly permits us to publish 1t.
The writer might be a cousin TO
Josh Billings:
HAMILTON, New, August 27, g..
FRIEND Dick - am at present In
good health. Please inform me II the
Comstock has entirely given out, as
would like very much to know winch
way to travel. The mines here are
looking too extensive in the way OF
limestone for a person Of my indus
trious habits to stay with, and there are
too many wealthy men that Amt got no
money lowering around the classic pre-
cincts of this great immensely Of miner
al wealth. If the Comstock hasn't disap-
peared l will go back, AS | would Ike
to associate myself with men Of moder.
ate means and modern ideas.
The Eberbardt and other famous
mines have struck it as rich as ever.
They have sunk up several shafts, and
found rich quartz very close to where
they first discovered it. There are q
great many people leaving and running
down this country, but they are moth
ing but n pack of miners, who know
nothing about San Francisco or Chica-
go either. In my opinion no man
should run down u good country, pro-
viding it is bad. If we all praise and
stick up for this mineral district, who
knows but we may cause some of our
wealthy friends to visit the district,
drop some money, and take some Of us
back home with them?
And another thing we might, 1t We
persisted in prsising it, be the means OF
bringing some Of our enemies and get
even on them, for by touching the pock-
ct you strike them just where they live.
am in no hurry to leave, rs | think
this country will be just as good acoun-
try for me in q hundred years from now
as any other anyhow, | don't think I'll
leave until I get money to leave on.
Dick, come here it is a good and
rich country ; the wealthiesti in minerals
in the world.
Fetch all your money With you, and
il you don't like the country | will
sacrifice all my chances for q fortune
and 90 back to Virginia with you.
Give my kind regards to all my
friends, and hoping that you will an
swer right of, Immediately,
remain yours afcctionately,
PATsgY MASON.
P. S.-Come in haste, and fetch
enough money to pay passage and grub
for four men, both ways.
Yours sincerely,
PATSrY.

Little Maud.

Little Maud, grand-papa and |, we three,
Dwelt all alone, in cot by the sea,
Where the winds were high and the hoarse
breakers roar
And the wild waves broke on the pebbley shore;
A more glorious sight when it lay still,
And we only te!t the power 1t couldwield at Will
Grand papa was hSle, hearty old man
Three score years, his cheek had the sea breez-
es famed;
Two score years before from her island home,
Brought his sweet young bride to his cottage
lone,
Two children played on his knee in that hap
py time,
Two beauteous twin girls,-Maud's mother and
mine,
A few years,-They had kissed him, each
bride.
Five graves were down by the ocean side,
A wreck hoated back and four corses lay
On the sands of the shore when the sun rose
that day.
| remember yet how grandpapa cried,
When he laid them by her who had been his
bride,
Clasping MautSs hand and mine so solemnly
Led us back to the cot by the side of the sea.
Maud was merry child in those by-gone iavs,
She conquered all with her willful ways,
Till grandpapa SMILED as he was wont before.
Those graves were down by the ocean shore,
But one shadow there in that happy place.
| Twas when they looked on my poor pale flsA
| For grandpapa feared that Maud and he
Would soon lie alone i'll that cot tg the sea-

\ GOVERNMENTAL IUNURY.-Ncr-
mont has one luxury which, we believe.
is enjoyed by no other State-a sort of
perpetual motion, known rs Il Council of
Censors. 1t is body of thirteen men.
chosen periodically, whose duty it is to
sec that the fundamental law of the state
is enforced, and to recommend such
amendments 10 the constitution as they
may deem necessary. In past years,
their duties have been small, and their
recommendations UNDECIDED, and the Of
flee has gradually fallen into contempt.
But the office was Il creation of the con-
>titution, and as the councillors would
not recommend lis discontinuance, there
seemed to be no way Ct reaching them,
and so, like a useless machine, the coun-
ell has been running because there was no
power Of stopping ii. This is the year
Tor electing a new council, and an invent
i've genius has made a discovery which Is
likely to enable the people TO Get rid OF
this useless body. Acting on his su"res-
ton, ticket has been nominated COM
posed Of men pledged TO recommend Il
change OF the constitution abolishng the
council, and the State is likely to get the
benefit of the first really useful work of
that body, and TO enjoy the unusual spec
taclc of a nuisance abating itsclf-Bos-

In the matter of the pardons dealt ont
General lIoar has decided that they can
not be rev okcd, unless'they are conditional,
for the petition for pardon is equivalent
to the acceptance Of it but all pardons
losing condition may be revoked,
and they will be by the new president.
The extent TO which johnson carried his
tendernessI for rascals is scarcely appreci-
ated by the people. In another direction
he was equally kind,-for one of his last
acts was to direct the issue cf S2,40O.-
600 in bonds 10 the Central Pacific rail-
road for advance work. Only 81 ,4OO,-
600 were issued, however, for Grant, as
sovn as he learned it, put stop to the
job.
In the Encouragement of the senate
committees, poor Yates, Of ILL.,, was
taken from the committee on territories
and put on the dctunct committee on rev
olutionary claims. One of the CORES
pCndents says: This is Il rebuke to
him and was 80 intended. lie asked to
be placed at the head of the Inauguration
committee, because Grant was from Hi

mission in the army. 1t seemed quite
fitting and was given to him He sud-
denly disappeared 10 re-appear two days
