THE BiLI.-The ball night before
last. given by the citizens Of Carson
in honor of the. Legislature Of ISL.
was a grand success in every respect.
In fact the scene proved so eEchsat-
ing that we failed to reach the Office
until after the paper had gone to
press. Hence, no notice Of the af-
fair yesterday morning, and hence
No. J, only a passing notice now. If
beauty, pure and simple, constitutes
a belle, irrespective Of age. then We
must unhesitatinglv pronounce IL
petite Maria c.. the belle of the even
ing; but If intellectual brilliauce
combined with rare personal charms
and exquisite taste in dress are ac-
counted necessary, then Miss Hattie
+. Of Virginia closely contested tine
coveted distinction with Miss Lizzie
W. of Carson. There were between
three and four hundred perscns
present. and the dancing continued
until 4:3U 4. n. The music was of
that mellifluous and almost tangible
kind which Russ. lugraham's band
alone can breathe. the supper was
gotten up in the best style OF those
popular caterers, the C9rbett Broth
ers, and was too good and maguili-
cent for powers OF description.
The whole thing was without price
to all those invited. and tie in
yitatlons consumed several reams Of
paper. All State officers and GEM
bcrs and attaches OF both branches
of the Legislature were invited. and
most Of them were in attendance.
and the affair was c~redilaolc in the
highest degree TO the managers. and
to the generous hospitality Of the
citizens OF Carson.
A FEuD.-Wc noticed yesterday
the fact that a family had Degnturaed
out in the street by the operations of
a writ Of restitution. Some hears
afterward the female head Of the
family assaulted the man who swore
out the writ. Bystanders said She
struck him in the face with a cohbie
stone; but however that NAV be. the
man raj into the street with q
lacerated nose while the woman
stood screaming on the sidewalk. as
sorting that the man assaulted her.
AT this the husband Of the woman
gave chase and would probably have
further assaulted the ~rctreati4g man
had not Constable Hodgkinson in
terferel. Yesterday the ease was
again revived in another form. The
ousted man swore out a warrant
against the custer for larceny. aud
upon the arrest and search of the
latter an Odd Fellow breastpin and
a pair of sleeve buttons were found
in his overcoat pocket. On trial he
was acquitted, and it was pretty we'll
established that the complaining
witness had slipped the iewelrv into
the pocket of accused before having
him arrested. The complaining
witness is now to lie tried for per-
jury.
STAGE RoBBERY.-Ihe foremost
stage from Reno 10 Virginia was
stopped and robbed five miles from
Virginia, about 4 o'clock yesterday
morning. There were three robbers
present, all masked and armed with
shotguns. One caught the leaders
of the team, while the other two
took opposite side. OF the road. The
express box Of Wells, FARGO & Co.
was taken out, broken open with n
sledge hammer, and rihed of SJ3l
in coin, $40 in currency and some
small packages of coin, amounting
in all TO about $4,000. The robbers
consumed but a few minutes in
time, as there we're two fast freight
teams 400 yards behind and the Sec
ond stage less than a mile. 4 man
by the name OF Johnson, who was
engaged in a slfe-breaking specula-
tion at Virginia some time since. was
arrested yesterday between virginia
and Gold Hill, and the missing
money was found upon his person.
The police were in hot pursuit of
the other robbers at last account.
