THE MORE soIREE.

Some sporting young gents.
With hearts light and free,
Came into WiImOre
To have a soiree;
But what was their grief,
When they came into toWp,
To find their programme
AL turned upside down
For the landlord declined
His house for TO lei,
So another TO fad
They started, you be!
In small, little kitchen,
The guests did assemble,
With hearts very light
And toes very nimble.
3 It some guests did remark
The room was too small,
And not u fit place
For a calico ball
Which reused the good lady
To very high pitch,
And the scene that cLsued
" as ueClucuIN IlCu.
She looked all around.
L he esse;nblLge TO scan,
Then put out the light.
And the ext began.
In less than a moment
! 10 deed it was dCne1
And out OH the street,
She turned every ono.
But the gents were deter mined
Success to insuIs,
And a hall in an attic
They next did procure,
But the ladies objected
To dancing ct all;
The crowd then dispersed
Thus ended the squat.

The Territorial Enterprise Of Nevada
Il either ignorant or insincere on the
Senatorial question. It processes 70
believe that the Influence Of the Bank
OF California Is being used to aid the
reelection Of Nye. This Is not true,
and We challenge the Enterprise topro-
duce Its proof. We ask 1t to give evil
deuce that has even the slightest ten
dency to prove the fact. We do not
wish this journal to 20 Numbering
back through past Senatorial contests.
We charge chat within sixty days past
the quarrel between Sharon and Jones
has been compromised OH terms that
secure for Jones the railroad and Bank
influence, and the support Of all the
moneyed interests Of mines aud mills.
Our proof lies In the inherent evidence
of the compromise itself-in the fact
that the opposition to Jones has either
altogether ceased or been carried on In
such a way as to show Its i~nsincerity {;
that no money Is being expended for
Nye that there Il no real contest at
the primaries that several journals In
San Francisco, devoted In all respects
to the railroad powers. support Jones,
and have attacked the Chronicle for Its
exposure of this Senatorial conspiracy.
In the streets Of Virginia City the
well-known partisans of Sharon are
either subdued or silent. Ii they are
doing anything it Is a pretense, and Is
done to bliud the credulous. They
will nreteud TO support some other
