A Circus IN A RAIN SroRM.-The Du-
buque uowa) Herald o June Goth gives
the following rich sketch Of a terrible
storm which visited that place while
Dan Rice's circus was performing:
Dan Rice's circus, perhaps, had the
c~ompletest submersion. II was filed
with the "upper ten of Dubuque, but
the deluge came down like a wolf on the
fold, and the first anybody knsw the
water was half knee deep everywhere.
The somersaulters found themselves sit
ting down in exceedingly soft spots, and
even the clown could not see any fun in
the matter. The women climbed to the
highest seats, and either waded out or
were carried out by their husbands, or
somebody else's husbands, land no
questions asked" Livery stable men
aud hack drivers were in good demand,
and had n soft thing Of it. Even the in
dsfatigablo Dan Rice "gin OUT and
held no lcYee in the evening. In short,
it..rained considerable, more than sufi-
cicut to suit anybody, except Good
Templars and ducks. Ifthis is the re.
suit Of the recent Des Moines Temper
sncc Convention, with its attempt to
run the State on n cold water basis, we
think II respectable contribution could
be raised 10 indnce them to hold their

WoRp to FARNERs.-Profe.

4 WORD to FARNERs.-Professor
Diehl, the distinguished traveller,
scholar and lecturer, says that
the country Of Asia Minor is strik-
inely similar to Nevada = full OF
sterile, lofty mountains and arid plains,
with here and there rich valleys in
terspersed. But thi, is the region so Of
ten referred to in the Bible on account Of
its ~profusion Of fruits /; and to this day,
a. Mr.. Diehl describes it, there i, no
other land which can compare with it
in this respect. He says such date,
and fgs and wonderful grapes as grow
there can be found nowhere else. Aud
this land is not o tropical country.
The mercury falls as low there as it
does in Nevada, and the wind is just as
fierce. Aud now, If all this be true,
and there ian be no doubt of it, why
cannot those fruits be produced here ?
IL White Pine mountain is a repre-
sentative Of Lebanon, rs this observing
man informs US, why is it not fair TO
presume that the valley below, if en-
conraged, would reproduce such grapes
as the "spies" brought back TO Moses?
II is certainly worth the trial. Mr..
Diehl is also an admirer Of the cashmere
goat-say they would be a splendid
thing for Nevada-that their meat il MS
good as v~enison, their milk the very
richest in the world, while their fleeces
woyen make garments which, with
reasonable wear and care, will last for
scores Of years. These too are old
residents Of Palestine. "Thy hair is
rs a flock Of goats that appear on
Gilead," was q smile Of perfect lowell
ness, and if we can get these, with the
- garden of nuts" the fruits Of the
valley" with "the vine 20 flourish
aud the pomegranate to bud, W. don't
see why Nevada won't get along after
all.-Tnidnd Empire.

How EMIGRATION Is lNcREAsED.-At the
meeting of the Commissioners Of Emil
grafton, in New York city, recently,
the semi.monthly report of the Superin-
teudent showed that since the first Of
the year to June ed, one hundred and
thirty.two thousand and ~thirty-two
emigrants had arrived Mt that port.
During the anne period for 1868 the
arrivals were ninely-nine thousand three
hundred and sixty-Rve, the former
figures showing an increase this year
over the last of thirty-two thousand
six hundred and sixty-seven. This may
appear astonishing, but when we take
into consideration the treaties effected
by Minister Bancroft with the North
German Confederation, by which emil
grafton is encouraged through the pro-
lection extended to s,eerage passengers
while on board ship, We need not be
amazed. Heretofore masters of vessels
generally cared nothing for the comfort
Of the hundreds Of human beings
men, women and children crowded
below decks, where for the lack OF air,
cleanliness and respectable food, they
were subjected to tue inroads Of diseases
which, in many instances, eliminated
iu pes,ilence. Through the earnest
Representations of Mr.. Bancroft, this
iuhuman system, so long prevalent, has
been broken up, and vessels now lear-
ing the German ports are prevented
from carrying more passengers than can
--Il ,,.alaNa Thto
fact being known among the vast multi
tudes who have had IN earnest desire
to find new homes in the New World,
has had the tendency to give fresh
impetus to emigration, as exhibited in
the enormous increase over that of last
year

SuIrs CoNMENcED.-Storey and Lyon
counties have each commenced suit
against Washoc county to establish ju-
risdiction over the town Of Wadsworth
in Washoe. These debt ridden, tax
burthcnsd bankrupts, having utterly
despaired Of ever being able to pay up
the Just debts contracted by corrupt Of
icials in the past, look upon our fair
possessions witt covetous eyes, and in
these suits declare in favor Of grand
larceny as against repudiation-or per-
haps We should say highway robbery,
as the great highway Of the nation, the
c. P. r. R., i, what they are after.
Four or FIVE per cent. on the road works
aad material there stored, equitably d.
vided between these bandits, would, we
suppose, help some toward keeping soul
and body together, and for a season
stave Off the inevitable. These suits are
brought in the District Court Of Hum
boldt County. At FIRST the reason why
suit should be brought in so incon-
veuient and out of the way place wal
not quite plain to US, but when we con-
sidered that no one but a member Of the
Damphool family would engage in so
hopeless an enterprise, we saw Mt once
that family influence was what the
plaintiffs in the case were looking after.
The D~amphools ere high in position in
that bailiwick. It is barely possible
that family influence may secure n judg-
msnt against Washoe County, in which
case there will as q matter Of course be
an appeal to the Supreme Court, and
necessarily some considerable delay in
the collection of our revenue Washoe
County in the aggregate will suffer
but that portion of the coun
ty known as Wadsworth can stand it
tho the suit be KEEP, in Court for the
next ten years.-Reno Crescent.

Seward was the principal feature in the
San Francisco procession yesterday. He
rode in the carriage with Mayor McCop-

the housetops cheered him rs he went,
while the ladies kept up a continual
futter Of handkerchiefs-and this atten-
ton kept poor Mayor MeCoppin bobbing
and bowling all the time - for the poor
man did not know whether the enthusi-

his proper Acknowledgements for COM
pliments rendered, he fully accepted the
situation and bowed all the way.-Sae-
