The STogM.--The great storm Of the season
is now prevailing. 1t began about 10 o'clock
yesterday morning, and ut first was sleet anil
hail, but gradually it became colder, and -
fine snow filled the air Our streets became
almost deserted, aud hot stoves were in de-
mand. We may safely say that this is the
storm Of the season. Last Year the sever,,t
weather was from the 2Oth TO the 2Sth of Feb
ruary, when the thermometer ranged from
zero to 49, degrees below, every day
Although there has been more snow this
Winter than last, the thermometer has
only marked six degrees below zero. The
large quantity of snow that has fallen this
Winter will be highly beneficial to our mining
and milling interests. Inland Empire Fe5

the matter Of the defalcation in the State
Treasury has become the topic Of common re-
marx, a good many spsculations as TO what
became Of all the money have been INDUCED.
Some observing people. who were about Car
son and Virginia in ls6S, and who had oppor-
tunity to catch an occasional glimpse Of the
gorgeous manner in which the ring managed
the Republican party. are now suspicious that
Rhodes did no, use all that missing money in
his personal exploits on stocks.
II Is known tina. the close corporation, after
scouting the wishes Of the party in general. in
Storey county, and putting up job on the
party, began. as election drew near. 20 have
some misgivings about the result, and had re-
sort, at last, To eItravaSant use Of money to
draw votes from the Democratic ranks. They
freely said they used money for this purpose,
when il was known they had no money of
their own. Now, as we have said, some sur
misses are INDUCED, that Rhodes may have
been compelled, by members Of the ring who
knew how he Was operating, to give up money
for election purposes. The surmise has in il
nothing at all improbable.-WLiie PING N.,es.
