FROM ELKo.-The following dispatch
we find in the Enterprise of yesterday
morning:
ELKo, September 20.-This morn
ing's train from the west brought the
balance of the delegates to the Repub-
lican State Convention-the Tritle or
Storey County delegation coming in a
palace sleeping car, which is switched
off on a side track. The Convention
meets to morrow, and the delegations
from each county in the State are fully
represented. the Lyon County con
tested case, together with the mater
of organization, will probably occupy
the day. Tritle will undoubtedly be
nominated, with a strong probability
of no opposition, for Governor. Sim
gerland's chances for Lieutenant Gov
ernor still look the best. Curry and
Crosman, his competitors, are working
hard. Col. Thomas b. Schamp of
Washoe County, and John II. Mills
ofStorey County, are two newly named
candidates-the latter not at his own
instance.

ANOTHER RORBERY.-Wew were in
formed last evening that while Justice
Livingstone was holding Court in his
front office yesterday afternoon some
thief broke into his private rooms in
the rear, and stole $40 left there by

act on the part Of the thief. Our citi-
gems cannot too carefully secure their
premises. 1t is quite certain that the
town is infested by . gang of thieves
and burglars neither small nor mex

THE STATE CAPITOL BUILDING.-The
stone work of the walls of the Capitol
building was completed yesterday,
and the foundation Of the cupola laid.
The roof will he erected in about ten
days, and the cupola in the same time.
The latter will be, including observa-
tory and dome, forty-seven and one
half feet above the ridge of the roof,
and will be surmounied by a flag staff
forty feet high-risipg some sixteen
feet higher than the top of the present
flagstaff or liberty pole on Capitol
square. The heavy timber plates for
the foundation of the roof-twelve by
sixteen inches, and seventy-five feet
in length, ten in number-were yes
terday raised to the top Of the walls
between the hours of 10 o'clock in the
morning and o'clock in the after
noon-under the superintendence Of
Mr.. Thompson, master carpenter. To
the skill and energy Of the gentleman
just named the excellent execution
and rapid progress Of the work in his
department is in great measure due.
At the same time we are prompted to
bear testimony to the skill and faith
fulness OF Mr.. C. B. Grant, master ma
son-the real architect, under guild
snce, of the building as embodied in
stone. In fact the contractor, Mr..
Cavanaugh-the real power in forward
ing the building toward completion
expresses himself well pleased with
his workmen generally. He appears
to be of the opinion that they are the
hest set of mechanics on this Coast.

lowest bidder, and received the con-
tract because those bidding below him
failed, after an extension of time had
been granted by the Post Office De-
partment, to furnish the responsible
bonds.

TIE M1YORS LETTER.

Swindled ard misgOvemcd as the City OF New
York is 10y the officers appointed to administer
its municipal concerns, there is at least one sub
iect upon which the taxpayers may always re-
fleet with pleasure and with pride; Mr.. A. Oakley
Hall writes in the very finest style OF any
mayor who ever sat in our municipal chair.
The touching composition in which he an
nounced the other day the appointment of the
Hon. Peter Barr Sweeny's uncle as Police
Commissioner, was so unique in design and so
poetical in expression, that we have not the
heart to leave it in the obscurity of agate type
without an appreciatye word. OF course it
was well understood that the Office, whoever
got it, must not 60 out of the family, and yet
that the appointment, when it came, must
come in some such delicate shape that no
man should charge Mr.. Tweed, Mr.
Swecny, Mr. Hall, Mr.. jim Fisk, and the
rest of the noble band, with too indecent a
distribution of the spoils in the very face of
the plundered public. When it was settled in
deed that the new Commissioner should be the
Honorable Peters uncle, the task of vailing
the announcement in pleasing phrase did seem
rather serious but Mr.. Hall has proved equal
to the occasion, and, costly as he is, we have
no doubt his managers find him cheap at tho
price No other man could have introduced
the appointment with such touching illusions
to ancient friendships, in those distant days
when Hall was only "a young Assistant Dis
" trict Attorney" and Mr. Barr Sixth Ward
Alderman. No other man could have expressed
such warm personal attachment to Mr.. Sweeny's
uncle at a moment when the majority of re-
spectacle citizens consider it rather discredit-
able than otherwise to have any connection
with the family.
There are some things, indeed, in the letter
which we do not quite understand but Mr..
Hall will probably think the letter all the
better on that account. Mr. BarT's chief recon-
mendations for office, according to the Mayor,
are his "ancllary qualities" This may be in
tended as o covert alusiOn to waiting maids"
"a rather far-fctched but still pOetical init
nation that Mr.. Sweenys uncle will be a good
person to pass the punch at the sympOsia of
Tweed, and pour the sparkling bowl at the
banquets of the Erie Opera House. We are
rather inclined to believe, however, that it
means Mr.. Sweenys uncle will appreciate the
duties of his position, and use his Office with
due subservience to the wishes of the distin-
guished relative for whose sake he is appointed.
If this is the true Interpretation of the phrase,
Mr.. Halls prudence is equaled only by his
poetry.

LISA Weber first descended from the flies to

moreover is unquestionably borrowed from
donkey-races, where the speed of the quadru-
ped is stimulated by carrots. The combination
of the two IDEAS however, is extremely happy.
1t is in combining the discoveries of past ages
that true genius shows itself.
1t might be objected that eagles are not
tractable in harness, and would be apt to go
after meat at the other end of the pole; but
we know the plan will work, because it has
been tried; and we know it has been tried,
because the special Paris correspondent of The
World says so.
New-York tribune., 1870-12-01

Though the French armies have not borne
their eagles with much glory through the
Prussian lines, there is at least chance that
the customary relations may be reversed and
Frenehmen be carried by the eagles OF the
Jardin des Plantes over the heads OF The IN

An ingenious Parisian has devised a means Of

The Yale Navy has voted not 70 row again With
Harvard except in a " straight-away" race and tho
present University crew has Individually sworn not
to pull against Harvard crew. This action is taken
on account of last Summers dispute, Yale claiming
foul" at the stHke-boat, which the referees would
not allow. Should Yale persist in her determine
tion-and we do not think she will--the inter-col-
legiate races IN this country viii die out lose
their chief interest. But disputes Of this kind do
not Outliye the classes which originate them, and
the harbor of New-Haven is too good a school for
oarsmen TO permit the exercise to be given up. Yale
has as many students from whom 10 choose a crew
as Haryard-yOung men, too. representing much bet
ter the couttry at large than do those at Harvard
Her past defeats have been caused by the orsanza-
ton of the navy, careless training, and personal
hOstilities among the members of her crews. All
these can be remedied without psciug HaTysfd out
of her list of contestants and thus virtually giving
up hope of victory.
New-York tribune., 1870-12-01
THE CONFLICT or Authority IN Ala


BAlf4.
The returns of the late election in Alabama
led us TO infer that the State had been lost to
the Republicans by q small majority of 5000
or so. 1t had gone for Grant two years before
by over 4,2OO, and the causes which had led to
this change of more than 1000 have not been
heretofore clearly apparent. But it would seem
from late revelations that the gains OF the
Democracy are not to be attributed wholly to
honest sources. Intimidation and outrage
were employed and the most hoinOus crimes
committed to drive legal voters from the polls.
In one instance fifty -four negro voters were
wounded in an attack upon a mass meeting,
not a single white man being injured. False
| returns were issued in some instances and no
returns in others and every effort was made
to Obstruct the electors and falsify the returns.
The origin of the difficulty was serious enough,
and it is to be feared that Its consequences
may prove graver still.
The presiding officer of the Senate, "a Re
publican, was restrained on Saturday last by
an injunction issued on the application of the
Governor and Treasurer of the State, both of
whom are Republicans, from counting the
votes cast for the candidates for those two
Offices. The ayowed purpose of the officials
was to secure legal inquiry into the validity of
the election. The Senate, which is almost
unanimously Republican, obeyed the injunc-
tiOn, and, after the Speaker had declined to
announce the vote for the two Offices named,
that body adjourned. This seems clearly the
proper proceeding under the circumstances.
But the Senate had no sooner retired than the
new Leutenant-GOvernOr was sworn in, and,
taking the Speakers chair in the House, an
nOunced himself as the presiding officer of
the joint convention, although he was the
only person present who was in any sense q
member of the Senate. He thereupon counted
the vote for Governor and Treasurer, and
declared the Democratic candidates duly
elected. The new Governor took the oath,
and would have taken possession of the Execu-
tive Office, had not United States troops pre-
vented. These have since been withdrawn,
and the Republican Governor and Treasurer
hold Office now by the material aid of Sher-
if's posse, composed of negroes
Gov. Smith has sent TO the Legislature n
message defending his course, the principal
points of which we publish elsewhere. His
right to contest the validity of the election
seems undoubted; we do not understand how
the inquiry which seems necessary could well
have been otherwise instituted, and We trust
the solution Of the trouble is to be intrusted
exclusively to the courts. Neither SheriG''s
posse nor United States army is likely to
make the issue any clearer or establish the
rights Of tho contestants more securely.
