THE LITTLE CHURCH AROUND
THE CORNER
II TUDOR HORTON.

~ -
II was thought Of old, when Q man was cold,
And dressed for his last long Journey,
kparson should como to direct him home
By clerical power Of Attorney;
But one man OF grace, from q holy o. place,
One who acts Is . Gospel factor,
Could not condesccnd bis breath to expend
Ger the corpse Of dead play-actor.
How could he have read all his Master said,
And turned from q sorrowing mourner,
With mot In ourway NJ Perhaps Il win pay
"The little church round the corner"
A soul with the stain and the brand Of Cain,
When trussed for the hangman's halter,
Il Dismissed with grace to . holy place
By the sons of-the Christian altar.
But q man Of worth, who has cheercd the earth
By promoting harmless laughter,
Is thrust In the cold, from the sacred fold,
With no hope In the Great Hereafter.
Bot all arc not lost OF the Christian host,
So wen silence tho jeering scorner,
And honor pay one, for an act well done,
At "ths little church round the corner"

salclde or a Deputy sheriff.


EIxo, Nevada, February flames
McGenness, Deputy Sheriff of Elko
county, committed suicide this even
ing, at the Cosmopolitan Hotel, by
shooting himself through the head
with an army revolver. BE pleaded
indisposition this morning, and was
attended every hour by friends, and
was last visited about an hour before
the passenger train arrived from the

committed the deed while the train
was coming into the depot, as no one
heard the report of the pistol. He
leaves a wife and two children In

by all who knew him. No cause Is as
signed at present for the rash act.

FAvoRABLE PRospEcrs.-Afer all,
tho fears entertained a few weeks ago,
that we should have q dry Winter,
have given way to hopes Of a sufficient
quantity of rain to insure, so far as
moisture goes, q plentiful harvest this
year. The fall OF rain thus far has
been but little below tho average in
this pareof the State, while In other
portions 1t has been greater. Many Of
tho farmers have already got their

TIE Legislature Of Nevada is getting
along very slowly with its work,
although only about twenty days more
remain Of the session. 1t is true, there
is not much legislation required, but
what Is necessary is highly important
for the future welfare Of the State
among which We may mention the
funding of the State debt or providing
for the payment Of what is now due,
and to become due within the next two
years; to provide for securing the
lands granted BY the Federal Govern
nent; to provide for the ~Penitentiary,
and to settle the disputed title to the
premises, etc. These are matters Of
the utmost Importance, and we trust
will be satisfactorily settled before adj
journment. These matters are in the
custody of the Legislature, and if it
fails to give proper attention to them,
the people will hold their servants to a
strict accountability when they return
them.

Ultimately succeed, because Spain has al.

ultimately succeed, because Spain has al
ready lost SO much and the Cubans have
lost so little that even Spanish obstinacy
| is counting the cost and the chances
Spain refuses to sell the island to the
United States because she has no right to
sell the people, and, further, because the
United States has no right to buy an en-
tire people without their consent In
this dilemma the Pail Mall Gazette init
mates that England might interfere to
procure for the Cubans the right to
buy themselves, which would end the diff
Guilty at once. This is the cheapest way
to end the revolution in Cuba 1t will
cost more to carry on the war to success
full termination than any sum which Spain
would demand, and the monetary sacrifice
will have to be accompanied with large
destruction of human life In this light.
the suggestion of the British organ is
worthy of consideration at Madrid, not
only by King Amadeus, but by the Amer
ican Minister. General Sickles should
hold himself ready to support such set
tlement with the full force of his eloquence,
and with direct intimation that its reiec-
ton might have the effect of giving diff
ferent direction to the action of the United
States. Spain has been pursuing the war
in Cuba long enough already to have sup
pressed its existence on every part of the
island, and that she has not done
so is sufficient evidence that she
can not regain her lost dominion.
or that she has some unworthy motive to
actuate her in keeping up the disturbance
In either event it is the duty of the Ameri-
can government to interfere to arrest
commotion which is affecting our citizens
and our interests every day. General
Sickles ought to state this conclusion at
Madrid, and he should, still further, in
the event the English government does
not act, present a proposition to the
Spanish government that the Cubans be
allowed to purchase their own independ-
ence. If it were accepted very unpleas-
ant and improbable revolution would be
suppressed, and peace would result |
which might either give US the island or
new republic in the grlf. At all events
it would stop bloody and brutal war;
and allay growing sentiment of hostility
to Spain in the minds of our people.
