A. F. WHITE, Esq, our. efficient
State MineralOgist for the last two
years, dropped IN upon us at our sane
tum one day this week, and we were
highly entertained with his statements
in relation to what he is doing in his
department of the business of the
State. He stated to us that he is now
on his way to visit Gold Run, Battle
Mountain, Austin, Eureka, White
Pine, Railroad and Mineral Hill dis
tricts, after which he will make an ex-
animation of the mines in Virginia
City and Gold Hill. This will COM
plete the labors of two years spent al
most entirely in the field. Last year
the mines in eastern and southern Ne
vada were visited, and the country eX-
plOred to the Colorado river by him.
The older districts, and the northern
portion of the State to the Idaho and
Oregon lines, volumes of notes on all
the material resources of the State
have been taken. from which report
will be prepared tor the next Legisla-
ture. These reports are of great inter-
est to the people of Nevada, and no
better person can be found than our
present State MineraloSist to get them
Register.

VIRTUE IN MAN.-We love to be-
lieve there is more moral goodness
than depravity i'll human nature.
When we see one tear of pity drop
from the eye. it gives us more pleas
ure than would the finding of a dia-
mond. There is goodness, real and
unselfish; in the heart, and we have
often seen it manifest to the making
of Il scene of sorrow the vestibule of
heaven. For man who is always
picking ont flaws in his neiyhbor'S
character we have no sympathy. He
reminds us OF those birds W hich resort
TO dead and decayed limbs of trees to
feast on the worms. In the character
of modest men. we shall find more
good than evil, more kindness than
hate: and why should we pick out the
flaws and pass over the sterling traits
of his character? We hold this to be
the true doctrine to portray real good
ness and hold it up to the gaze and
admira.i ion OF all, while We suffer the
evil to remain in the shade and die.

no GERMANS BEYOND THE SEAS.

The fields are clothed with gorgeous
| Summer garments
Up scars the lark in mornings COLDER
light,
Cheeks blanched with grief are seen il
German houses,
| Alright
But in their hearts fierce anger now i:
glowing,
And holy ardor pierces young and old
Though the grim flower beds which mex
Deaths red rose OF the battle field enfold
With f,ppant taunts the too concei;ed
Frenchman
The keen-edged sword mas forced into
our hand.
One single thought pervades now every
German
The savior to be of Fatherland!
And all our property of whatever nature,
We give il freely. joyously to thee.
From smoke of powder and fire OF can non
Arise, our Germany, so true and free!
Did not the son of perjury seek battle
Where is the heart that beats with manly
honor,
But curses him who murdered liberty.
Oh. would that all his victims now could
mutter,
Massacred for this Corsican's renown-
You call upon the Germans to revenge
And punish him whose sand has run
down.
And we shall do it. Brothers, though
far distant,
Who sow and reap in peace and in
repOSe,
We go to battle joyously and freely.
And German strength Will be vlctori-
Gus,
And down will go before mighty German
onslaught.
Who. 'mong the nations, lit foul Dis
cords torch:
Oh. distant brothers, don't forget the
country
Where stands your cradle, your pater-
nal porch.
II it were a duel merely tween two
The alarm-bells would not ring DER all
the earth
II is n combat for all Germans honor;
The price is Germany, our homes, our
hearth
Your honor also is to-day in question
Ie brothers all, We Germans cross the
deep,
Gravely commenced it was so be it ended,
Though the LAST man must death and
carnage reap.
We are all born of one and the same
spirit,
We march full armed into the warriors
line;
A. home remains the widow and the
orphan
Their fate, Oh brother, let their care be
thine.
For those who pierced by bloody keen |
edged weapons
For those who fell in battles fiercest
rage:
For those who speak to YOU a word OF
prayer:
Fill full with names the charitable page
And surely not in vain We now address I
you,
You also hear the soul inspiring tale
For WHAT we fight to-day, ii must be con-
quered
For ALL who from the German spirit |
hail.
Be French or German that is now the .
question
The arena even now is entered by the
foe
Help, brothers, help ! help in this mortal
combat
Across the ocean-think of German
woe.

4 GIRL NEARLY KILLED BY A CAT,
The Albany Argus is authority for the
following statement: 1.-The good citi-
zens of Schenectady have been alarm
ed greatly by a singular affair which
took place therea few days ago. As
cat story it goes ahead of anything of
the kind we have heard. The father
of family just before retiring late at
night heard groans in the room occu-
pied by his daughter, a girl twelve
years of age. Upon going 20 the room
he found II cat on the breast of his child,
with its fore legs around the child's
neck and its mouth in the child's
mouth. 1t was with some difficulty
that the cat was removed. The child
had evidently been asleep, and when
found was SO much exhausted by her
breath having been INSTRUCTED that she
had not strength enough to force the
cat away. We have heard ofcats caus-
ing the death of infants in this Nay,
but never before heard of such an in
cident in connection with a girl twelve
years of age. The facts were reported
by the father himself. The girl has
since been troubled in breathing"

Following are the latest items O
news from the seat of war. We clil
from the Gold Hill News,
j The following is a cable special te
the New York Sun:
+ PARIS via BRUSSELS, August 26.-IT
spite of Government assertions there
is no communication with Bazaine
The victory between Verdun and Cha
Ions. reported by Figaro, proves to b.
Il hoax.
General Trochu has published an or
der expelling from Paris every person
without means of living, and all inter
fering with the defense of the city.
A cable dispatch to the Associated
Press, dated Berlin, August %, says a
fourth army. under the command of
the Prince Royal of Saxony, is form
iny. to cooperate with the third army
in its march on Prris.
IGen. Trochu will probably soon in
clude in his order of expulsion from
Paris, the women and children. There
is going to be seige there.-ED. AP-
ZEAL.
PARIS, August GA portion of the
Kings army is undoubtedly marching
on Paris, while Gen. Steinmetz is left
to hold Blzaine. The enemy may
reach Paris within six days, should
there be no change in their plans, and
the Corps Leyisla.if were to be notified
of these facts to-day.
Advices from Paris report eight de-
parimen.s in the possession of the
Prussians, namely: The Lower and
Upper Rhine, Mo>elle, Meurthe, Me-
use. Vosges. Marine, and Haute Marine.
They contain 1851 900 inhabitants.
Great suffering prevails, i'll conse-
auence of Prussian requisitions.
CIT is not very likely that any very
vigorous CONSUMPTION will go on
among those five or SIX million French
subjects while the Prussians are hold
ing this possession. Ed. APPEAL.)
LONDON, August 26.-The French
have adopted law provid-
ing that all able-bodied men between
twenty and thirty-five shall be enroll

erty to procure substitute.

ASTRANGE PREsENTIMENT.-W are
informed that on the evening on which
the late accident occurred in the Hale
and Norcross mine by which Thomas
Stanton and David Ryan lost their
lives, Mrs. Stanton had presentiment
that something had happened her hus-
band in the mine, and this feeling at
length grew so strong that she could
not endure TO remain at home in SuS-
pense and SO determined to go to the
mine and ascertain if any accident had
happened. After it was known her
husband was killed, the men at the
works, after some debate, decided it
would be best to go and prepare her
for hearing the sad news. Those WHO
left the mine for this purpose had gone
but short distance before they met her
on her way to the works. Her hus-
band. very fearless miner. had also
a presentiment of danger, and spoke
several times during the afternoon of
being afraid that something was going
to happen. a thing he had never been
known to do BEFORE Enterprise.

\ MISERABLE ATTEMPT to ip.iure the
reputation of Congressman Sargent is
thus rebuked by the Sacramento Rec
ord:
An absurd rumor was put in circu-
lation the other day TO the effect that
Congressman Sargent had been assist
ing the Union to get out their paper
during the printers strike by setting
up type in that office. There was not
the slightest foundation for the story,
as any one might have discovered by
making inquiry, but the Reporter
thought it good opportunity make
capital against Mr.. Sargent, and so
published leader on the subject, call
ing upon all workin-men to vote
against him. The fact that when the
Reporter found that the Union intend
ed TO deny the falsehood, it retracted
it. does not relieve il from blame in
the premises. The charge was mali
ciously made as is evident from the
fact that the runor was accepted with
ont any Investigation as to its accuracy.
This is fair specimen of the way in
which certain class ofpolitical organs
endeavor to fight the battles of their
party.

THE CEoPs ON THE THEATRE OF
WAR.-A Frankfort letter of July so,
to the London News says:

A more unfortunate time for the out
break of hOstilities could hardly have
been selected. The crops are nearly
ready for the sickle. and there is but a
scanIy supply of labor. Throughout
the vast tract of country l have trav-
eled, from the fertile valleys of the
Rhine and the Moselle TO the sandy
plains which encompass Berlin, the
sight of wavering corn fields was the
one which uniformly met the eye.
Here and there Il few women were cut
ting down the ripe grain, Vet, i'll the
majority of the fields, there was no
signs Of the hu>bandman plying his
necessary task. In the vicinity OF the
Rhine the crops appear 10 be unusu-
ally luxurianl. The drought, of which
complaints are made here As We'll as
elsewhere. does not seem 70 have
proved Very injurious. 1t Is expected
That the vin.age will be uneNception-
ally good. provided au opportunity is
offered for pcaceabiy piucking the
grapes. When gazing upon the glo-
rious promises of the prolific earth it
is almost impossible to realize the fact
that Il tremendous effort is being made
to undo the work which has been ac-
cOmpli>hed with much toll. and to
convert the smiling corniicldS and
vineyards INTO barren and biackened
battle-ground.

of the late Mr. Ball. He said that Mr..
Ball had always been a good friend to
him, that he had admired him as an
upright man while living and now
that he was dead he would like to tes-
tify his respect by following him to
his grave. Being we'll acquainted with
Capt. Mathewson he asked to ride with
him, As he did not like to ride alone.
The Captain took him in his buggy and
he staid till the last, being the first
Chinaman ever seen a. the funeral of
any white man in this State. This
shows that even the much abused
Chinese are by no means devoid of
strong feelings OF friendship, for the
man said. in asking to join the process
sion. that he felt that it was a delicate

tcntion and remark and might be look

4 Put Up Job.

No tair-minded man Of either party IN
well come to any other conclusion than
that the bringing Of Judge Bond into
this State to try registrar, under the
Enforcement Act for wilfully refusing
to register a qualified voter, was put
up Job. The Berkeley Union in its
issue Of August 18th, ioreshadowed the
plan of the Radical leaders in the fol
lowing paragraph. 1t said, in referring
to the arrest OF two registrars;
1--WE suggest to our Republican friends
that bail be withdrawn, and the accused
90 to Jail, and that a writ of hojcaS cor
pus be obtained from Judge Bond and
the law tested at once
Now, why, we ask, were the Radicals
so anxious to have the case tested before
Bond if they were not fully satisfied, in
advance that he would render a parti
zan decision Why not let the case'
referred to take their regular and proper
course before the United States District
Judge in this State? The Distric
Court was in session Oh the same day
that Judge Bond held his Court in thin
place. Then it cannot be claimed thai
a decision could be had any sooner 10y
having Judge Bond come here Is th'
fact not patent that Judge Bond was ex
pected to render. a partizan decls
! ion ?-Ns1c Era.

Negro ku.kIuX.

The Journal announced, few days
ago, the existence and successful opera.
ton in this county Of band of negro
Ku Klux, under the management OF
Mr.. Freer, the Radical candidate for
Prosecuting Attorney. 1t seems that
this institution is simply an oath bound
conspiracy of negroes against the liber-
ties and peace Of the whites among
whom they live, and who afford them
employment and support, and that few
political adventurists in our midst find
profitable employment in banding them
together, and melting the poor ignorant
creatures to all sorts Of deviltry. On
Saturday night gang Of these same
negroes attended the Democratic meeting
for the purpose, as was afterwards ascer,
tained, of raising disturbance. A
number Of them were armed, and
avowed their purpose ito get away wild
dat Copperhead crowd, on the first op,
por,unity. 1t was well for them that
their design was not known until the
meeting ended. 1t may not be amiss
Just here to say that neither negroes,
nor their instigators, will he permitted
to interfere in any manner with Demo
cratic meetings in this county II
Freer & Co. don't like our meetings let
them break them up themselves. Its
dirty and cowardly TO send a pack Of
poor ignorant negroes on such an
errand No more armed negroes at
Democratic meetings if yOu please.
The consequences may extend az far as
