ianee between the two paints being
twenty-five miles. aud The average

market at ten per cent. interest.
With n fair degree of confidence in
the ability of our State officers to
manage our finances, and disposition
on the part of our Legislators, which
is now plainly manifest, to econo-
mize our expenditures, such bonds
ought to and will command n pre-
MUM.
Those who are prating about the
"leanness of our treasury" and the
"lightness of our money affairs,
cannot for a moment consider the
fact that our whole Indebtedness
could be wiped out in three years by
an increase of eighty per cent. on
State taxation.
If DIR. Hazlett and his co-legisla-
tors produce the right cast of legis-
lation in this matter, and the right
course is taken to satisfy capitalists
of the perfect security of our bonds
for the comparative small amount of
our Indebtedness, and our revenue
laws are made to apply equally to
all taxable property within the State,
the errors of the past may be easily
remedied, and our securities stand
first in the market. There need be
no fear of the solvency of our State,
nor disposition on the part of the
people to repudiate. There is too
much pride in the hardy pioneers of
Nevada to permit any such inference.
Her indebedness will be paid to a
dime, and those who have doubts OF
the integrity of the people of Ne
vada in the State capacity will be
disappointed. NJ.

A New BREED OF HoGs-A day or two
ago there arrived in this city, direct from
Warren county, Ill.,, pair of young pigs of
what is known as the Poland-China breed.
They lack some ten days of being two months
old, and they weigh about fifty pounds
apiece. They came direct by railroad, and
were imported by B. S. Davis, who resides ut
Murphys, Calaveras county. Davis left H.
linois on the 18th of April last, and in look
ing about during the short time he has been
in the State, he failed to see anything in the
shape of live pork that suited him so we'll as
the stock he left at horne, hence his concu-
sion to import the pigs which have arrived
by express in excellent condition. Davis in
forms US that this breed of hogs is cross be-
tween the large-boned Poland and o large
sized variety of Chinese stock. and is known
in Ohio as the "McGree Poland China" In
Ohio, Illinois and wherever known they take
precedence of the best English breeds, mas
much as they are more easily kept, very gen
tie and grow to an enormous size. At the
age of twelve months, when they have re-
ceived ordinary care, they will average about
400 pounds in weight. One seventeen
months old weighed 7S5 pounds; and there
was one placed on exhibition at Kewance,
H., last Spring, that weighed over 900
pounds. These hogs are spotted black and
white, the black slightly predomnating.

the two which have arrived in this city was

New YoRK July soh.The steamer PERT, sailing yes>
terday took $4,000 to President Raez, Of San Do
mana. She also took arms for the Dominican Govern
ment
Upon this hint the Washington Patriot of
August lst speaks as follows:
This telegram confirms, literally, all the
recent revelations in regard to the present
phase of the San Domingo job, and the Presi-
dents purpose to pursue his pet scheme of
annexation. in defiance of Congress and of
public opinion. There is no legal lease of the
Bay of SANTANA, and no ''second moiety,n as
it is called, to be paid. The convention for
the first and only lease was never ratified by
the Senate, and lapsed over year ago 1t
was the Presidents duty to have withdrawn
Immediately from this occupancy after the
refusal to approve that bargain, in which
Sl49, 900 of the peoples money was taken
from the Secret Service Fund of tue State
and distributed between Baez and the Wash
ington lobby.
But in spite of the indignant protest of all
parties, the President has maintained forcible
possession of SANTANA keeps the flag of the
United States flying there; employs a naval
storekeeper at the public expense, and orders
a squadron to remain at and near San Do
mingo, in order to prop up the degraded des-
potism of Baez. Over three millions of dol
lars have been sGuandered already in this
business for naval expenditures only. And
that is but part of the entire outlay. This
attempt to occupy and hold SANTANA, under
pretext of continuing lease which has nc
existence whatever, is an audacious outrage
and usurpaton of power, for which the
President deserves impeachment. Ii never
would have been attempted without his con.
nivance, and could not be carried into effect
without his direct consent. The fact is motto.
rious. as we have heretofore stated, that the
President wrote letters to the Postmaster oil
Boston and others, urging them to assist Fa
bens in raising the money by which his false
possession is to be kept up, as the nucleus Of
future raid on the Treasury and means Of
coercng the country into annexation.
Although the President, in his message to
Congress, pretended to abandon this shame
full scheme, the plain truth is he has never, al
any time or in any manner, given up his pei
project. And his personal connection with
Fabens in this recent transaction of raising
money for purpose which Congress refused
to entertain his appointment of Fahens' sor
as commercial agent at SANTANA the send
ing of arms to Baez; the maintenance of
squadron at large expense-all show q defian
| spirit. and determination to make the Pres
ident's will superior to Congress and to tn,
expressed Judgment of the country. The
time has come when phrases are not to b,
minced on this subject. General Grant i
associated with these jobbers, and abuses tn
Executive authority to favor huge specula
ton in San Domingo. And he will be helt
to that responsibility.

Successful Astcnaps az Raising Opium Pop-
py in Tennessee.

DIR. j. W. Morton, a gentleman residing
in Nashville, has for several years past given
considerable attention to the culture of opium
in Tennessee, in order to stimulate which he
sent abroad for different kinds of seeds, and
distributed them gratuitously among his
friends and neighbors. Owing to the late
ness of last years planting, the crop Of 1870
proved failure, which was perhaps also due
to the inferior quality of the soil. To obvi-
ate this difficulty. he obtained seed this year
from Calcutta and Smyrna, for which he
paid as high as 81 so in gold Per ounce.
The crop of the present season has been @
success, and the Doctor will harvest from
fifty to seventy-fve pounds of opium per acre.
from which he will no doubt realize hand
some profit. Another gentleman the Rev.
Fountain E. Pitts. who has followed the ex-
ample set by DR.. Morton, and also extensive
ly engaged in the culture of the poppy re-
ports similar success. After three years.
trial, he succeeded in raising the best opium
poppy seeds from Smyrna. which he planted
in good land, and now cultivatss in much the
same manner as cotton. When the capsules
were ready to scarify, he makes an incision
in one side, and the next evening scrapes off
the gam, which has, when first gathered, the
| appearance and consistency of cream. Incis-
ions are then made on the opposite side of
the capsules and the process of gathering re-
peated the following evening, which exhausts
the capsules. A few hours after the opium
is gathered it turns dark purple color,
which continues to grow deeper until the
characteristic opium color is reached. As
long as opium and its products remain @
medical necessity, we may as well congratu-
late ourselves that it has been demonstrated
that we can grow it ourselves, and thus prob
ably do away with importing this expensive
drug from foreign countries; but of all exist
ing remedies, the ultimate benefit derived
from which is of doubtful kind, and which
causes probably more injury in proportion to
the good it accomplishes, opium, next to
whisky, takes the foremost rank.

THE DIFFERENcE.-Whena raking, reck-
less youth goes, astray, friends gather round
him 10 order to restore him to the path of
virtue. He is only ''sowing his wild oats"
and may be reclaimed and made shining
light in society. Gentleness and kindness
are lavished upon him 20 win him back again
to innocence and peace. No one would sus-
pect thet he had ever sinned. But when q
poor. oonfiding girl is betrayed, she receives
the brand of society, and is henceforth driven
from the ways of virtue. The betrayer may
be honored, respected, esteemed there is no
peace for her this side of the grave. Society
has no loving, helping hand for her no smile
of peace, no voice Of forgiveness. These are
unearthly moralities unknown to heaven.
There is deep wrong in them, and fearful
are the consequences.
