Citations or differences.
3-That we are now, as ever. opposed 10
all forms and phases of human slavery.
in favor of all measures the purpose of
which is to lawfully protect the labor of
the citizen, and that the action of Con-
gress in refusing 10 admit isia.ics to the

from Metz but are as frequently re-
pulsed.

cisco at SsH@S9.

WHILE Connecticut and Delaware
are being redeemed from the thraldom
of the copperheads, are we to be given
grounds for anticipating that Nevada
through the apathy or disaffection of a
part of the Republican party, is to be
turned over to the tender mercies of
the reactionists and regulators of the
Democratic party? We cannot believe
that such is to be the case; on the con-
trary, we feel assured that within the
few weeks which are to intervene be-
tween the present time and the day of
election, the party will show as much
unity and strength ofpurpose as have,
in bygone times made Nevada con-
spicuous throughout the United States
as the bright particular star of the Pa
cific, never waning, never obscured-
shining with increasing luster upon
the escutcheon of Republicanism.

| THE FRENCH CROWN DIAMONDS.
The telegraph reports that the " state
ment that the Empress carried of the
crown diamonds is refuted by the
French Government organs" What
these crown diamonds are was told in
the Monthly Gossip of Lippincott' 5
Magazine FOX last September. The
writer gave an account of a gala night
az the grand opera, August IS, 1864:
The Imperial party arrived. and the
diamonds of the Dutchesses paled be-
fore the splendor of the crown jewels
like stars at sunrise. The Empress
looked one blaze of light. She had
driven in from Compeign in 4 carriage
open at the sides, with lamp Suspen-
ded from the top, that the populace
might feast their eyes upon her mag
niticence. Upon her head there arched
in graceful curves an antique diadem,
at whose summit the peerless Regent
diamond flashed like the sun. Her
corsage of lusterleSs scarlet silk was
edged with row of large diamonds
set in black enamel, from each of
size. What pity that the Snltans of
Haroun ell Rasscid could not have seen
her then! They would have paled
with envy certainly. The
Imperial necklace was similar in shape
to those of the Princess Matternich and
the Duchess de Morny, but of far finer
stones. The earrings were great drops
of soliditied light, and the bracelets
were single rows Of immense dia-
monds. Think of that and weep, oh
We uncrowned Expresses of our Amer
lean hearts and purses!
How different was this triumphant
entry from Compeign. in a blaze of
splendor, to the dark exit of The ex-
Empress "by a side door on the Seine
side" only few evenings ago! On
the Grand Opera night the Emperor is
also described as i" very lively and an
mated, chatting with the King of
Spain, using his opera-glass and ap-
parently in the best Of spirits"

PARIS now has but two ways of COM
municating with the outside world,
one bv means of balloons and another
by carrier pigeons. The former is GER
tainly perilous and the frequency of
communications must depend alto
gether on the direction of the wind.
Besides this, the 2ronaut runs the risk
of being brought down from his lofty
altitude by the needle gun or Prussian
shells, and must exercise the best of
Judgment in making his ascensions.
The carrier-pigeon system is precari-
ous, since the birds only act as bearers
of..dispatches by instinct when return
ing to their homes; consequent by
the pigeons bearing messages from
Paris to Tours belong to the latter city,
and would not under any circumstan-
ces voluntarily return to Paris. When,
therefore, the last of these fieet-winged
birds, kept a prisoner in Paris, is loos-
ed, communication by means of car
rier-pigeons will be cut of, unless a
new supply OF birds can be Struggled
into the city through the Prussian
lines.

THE STOREY COUNTY CONVEN-
TON,

The Republicans of Storey County
in Convention assembled have nomin-
ated their candidates for the various
District, County and township offices
which are to be filled there at the COM
ing general election. The Enterprise
thus alludes to the Convention and the
result of its labors:
| After two DAYS session the Repub-
lican County Convention closed its
| labors last evening. The proceedings
of yesterday will be found i'll this
| mornings issue. The action of the
Convention was as harmonious as that
of nominating conventions generally,
and was characterized throughout by
a quiet submission to the viii of the
body on the part of the defeated can
didates. auguring well for the unity
and consequent success of the party
at the approaching election. We are
free to admit that, had the nomination
of the candidates been entrusted to Us,
the ticket might have embraced some
changes: but. as it stands, ii merits
and meets our appreciation. and Will
receive our earnest laborS for its sue
cess; and, what is of more importance,
we are satisfied that it will COIL
mand the favor and support of the
party. 1t is a strong ticket, composed
of worthy citizens and >taunch Re
publican>. and will be elected by four
or five hundred ajority. The Opera
House was filled with Democrats
yesterday, in the hope and eNpecta-
ton of bolt. or some milder mani
fe>;ation of disatfec.ion in the conven-
ton; but the Republican party of
Storey County does not do its business
III that way. With the adjournment
of its nominating conventions lis in
ternal fcuds are healed. and il recog-
niZes but one enemy. the Democratic (
party, and marches 70 victory with an |
unbrokeu front. SO ii will be now. |
The ticket canno. be defeated. 1t is I
strong i'll all the elements of personal |
strength. and the party, raising the |
old battle-crieS of the past, will sweep
from the field whatever opposition !
may be found arrayed against it on .
the 81 of November. We shall find /
early occasion 10 refer. someWha. IN .
detail, to the nominees of the ticket.
This is manly, straightforward and
what we had a right to eN
pect from the principal organ of the
party in Nevada. Some
Of the nominees of this Convention
are: For Sheriff. Smith of Gold Hill;
for Treasurer, kaneen: for Clerk. Dana
Of Virginia City; for District Judge.
Rising: for Senators, Hopkins. Pat
zen. and Phelan; and for Assembly,
men, Nessrs. Buckingham. lawson,
Hay, Potter. Rogers. Leville, Wood,
Piper, Smith. Owens, Brodek and
Green.
Thus it will be seen that in the main,
f not indeed in its entirety, an excel
ent ticket is placed in the field; one 3
which will command the firm, united
support of the party and which will {
Igain ensure to Storey County, the
stronghold of Republicanism in Ne
ada. a triumph such as of Old. awak-
ned the enthusiasm of Republicans
the length and breadth of
he State. Wecongratulate our fellow
of Storey upon this happy
ssue of their ardent labors.

BISMARCK EXPLAINS.

In order that what has transpired
between himself and Jules Favre may
be understood 10y the outside world.
Herr Won Bismarck makes the follow
ing explicit statement of what has thus
far been said and done:
| Berlin. October 4.-Following is a
more extended synopsis of the circu-
lar recently issued by Count Bismarck
to the representatives OF other coun-
| tries in Berlin. mention OF which has
already been made in his circular:
| Bismarck admits that Favre's repre-
>entation of what passed AT the inter
view NAV not have been intentionally
wrong. because the conversation was

ded that if such cession was an indls-
penSible requirement OF Pru>sian ne
.utiation, i, was useless, aS 1t involved
France in dishonor. Bismarck re-
minded him that they wercterm> such
as France had forced on Italy and eN-
acted from Germany. even without
previous war, and that the honor OF
France was not keener than that OF
o,her people. Favre declined to rec

honor of France WAS concerned with
the preservation of the territorial
theftS of Louis XIV. or OF the Repub-
lie, or of the First Empire. The queS--
ton of an arnistice was only discussed
at FerriereS The statement, there
fore, that had refused an armistice at
the preceding interviews is false. II
was agreed that the Ferrieres meeting
