SOMEBODY says that busy man is "a
locomotive aud life a track. Every night he
drives into 'the house. and stops Every
morning he is fred up anew. and away he
goes, switching off in one direction and then
another. If that be true our merchant friend
Harry Shoemaker, must be a regular "coal
burner" for he is ever busy as busy can be.
during all regular business hours, dealing out
lots of goods to hosts of delighted custom srs,
who buy from Harry becaese he keeps good
stock, sells the cheapest, and is always ntten-
tive ard obliging Dry goods, groceries. -four,
furniture, etc, comprised in his stock.

few moments she became perfectly calm. and
conversed quite rationally-and her bearing
throughout convinced me that if she had been
kept in a secluded apartment, where every
passer-by would not be afforded the Opportuni-
ty to look in upon her, and had she received
kind nursing and the tender treatment her con-
dition demanded, reason would once more have
resumed its sway. That not having been done
the disposition made of her may have been
all that could have expected under the circum-
stances, but ! cauGot refrain from protesting
against the indecent haste with which she was
hurried off to the insane asylum as well as the
CAPACITY in which she was sent. Her earnest
and piteous appeals for help on the morning
she was sent away were heartrending in the ex-
treme, and awakened the deepest sympathy
for young and gifted and yet so unior
tunate md helpless.
] may take occasion to refer to this matter
again if future events call for it, and / shall
then endeavor to present facts incontroVertible
bearing upon the causes which led to this sad
and lamentable case of mental alteration. In
the meantime l hope that kind Providence
will recall to the enjOym of reason and all
her faculties one upon whom the hand of af1ic
ton has been laid so heavily and with such la
meItable results.
Velocipedes, in the opinion of our city IDS,
have become an intolerable nuisance, and the
vigilant and untiring member from the Third
Ward has proposed ordinance prohibiting
the running of bycicles on the sidewalks. Oar
city has some ~ coo or $4,000 inhabitants and
-and-two velocipedes, if my information is
correct. Hence you see the great necessity
of an ordinance such the one referred to.
The pic mic of our Catholic friends, already
referred to, am pleased to say will positively
be held at City Park OIL the 9th and 18th of
the present month. 1t bids fair to excel all
other enterprises of the kind, it is in the
hands of ladies who know no such word as fail.
1t will be the last chance this year for outdoor
amusement and innocent recreation eft this
character and should be well patronized for the
sake of the cause and the pleasure.
Philip Logan, a machinist employed by the
Company, had the index finger of one of his
hands taken off, few days ago, by being
caught in some part of the machinery.
Will Cassidy, a brakeman, while coupling
cars in the railroad yard here, day or two
ago, had one of his hands badly crushed.

At p. m they sat down to a sumptuous
dinner, gotten up by Captain Wallace,
mine host of the aforesaid hotel; after
enjoying which they came to town and
were the guests of the Governor last
evening, at whose residence during the
evening they were called upon by nu-
merous citizens. We are glad to again
see Mr.. CoIfax, Governor Bross and Mr..
Bowles among Us; and heartily wish
they might prolong their stay. Their
second visit to Carson is rendered more
interesting than the FIRST, because of
their fair and lovely companions and
daughters. We wish them a pleasant
visit, while on this coast, and, if go

We take the above from the Wisconsin
Mirror, published at Kilburn City.
Judge Van Wyck resides in this place,
and from our acquaintance with him we
can endorse all that the Mirror says of
him, as to his fitness and qualifications for
the Office of Governor
As to whether he wants the office of
Governor, weare not particularly informed.
1t is not essential, in our opinion, that he
should want it. Being good citizen, he
should be willing, like other good citi-
zens, to serve the State when the State
wants his services. The main question is,
whether the Republican electors want
Anthony Van Wyck for Governor If
they do, let them make him their candi-
date and elect him and there is no doubt
but that he will faithfully serve theState.

RAILROAD CoNsoLIDATIoN.--On the Sth
of May next, the stockholders of the Mich
igan Southern Railroad are to assemble in
person, or by proxy, and vote for or
against the consolidation of that road
with the Lake Shore Railroad extending
from Toledo to Erie. The directors Of
the two roads have unanimously voted in
favor of the arrangement, and there is
no doubt that the stockholders will ratify
it. 1t is believed that the Buffalo and
Erie road, lightweight miles in length,
will enter into the same arrangement.
This will make a gigantic corporation,
reaching from Chicago to Buffalo, a dis
lance of $50 miles, and adding the bran
aches, about 900 miles of track. The capi.
esI as consolidated Will be about $4,000
900, the present earnings of which are
about 100000, per annum. The above
movement has been in contemplation for
some time, and during the coming season,
It may be expected that the Michigan
Southern and the Lake Shore Railroad
will run direct from Chicago to Buffalo.
