DULL TIMES.-The ~countenances of
business men on a Monday morning
are ludicrous 20 behold. Longitudinal
faces are they, in the r sense OF the
term. Yesterday every "ue We met
seemed a. though a world OF ~oe was
pressing him down, down. down. and
all this Is owing to The wettil"r. II
the Spring WAS as usual, hundreds OF
men would he a. WORK who are now
idling about the streets We have
prayed earnestly for line Weather, amt
on the strtiGth of these PRAYERS have
promised il t. the people Of carson,
Spring viii surely come, ii Summer
does not anticipate il, and times VIII
yet be HveIN.
ANOTHER WARNING.-The heads of
respectable families are constantly com-
planning that drunken rowdIes are in
the habit of g,IuG into their houses
and annoying their families. W have
before referred tothi- practice and now
say that drunkenness l. no excuse for
a miserable iotfcr disturbing The qulet
of and insulting re>peclable families.
We advise these night prOW.er> to I've
ware. one OF more of them may per
chance get some cold lead Ia nix up
with their whisky, as We have heard
several say they are provided with
shotguu> and are teaching their wives
and daughters bow to use them.
