Some one, for elec'ioneering purpo'es, has
put in circulation report that Sheriff Gossett
neglects the proper comfort of prisoners in the
county jail. Any one who has ever taken upon
himself the trouble TO investigate the facts, will
find that the charge is without foundation and
will readily conclude that il is made by the
sheriff's enemies with malicious motives II is
now near enough the election for the usual false
reports to be put in circulation.

NURSERY RHYME FOR BIG FOLK
Not only the little folders,
Pcrched high on papas toe,
Bound for n ride to London town,
On childish journeys GO
For we all go up up, up,
And all go down, down, down-y,
And all go backward and forward,
And all 60 round, round, round.y
Still do we reach for sunbcams,
And learn the rattle trick,
The great big watch of Father Time
How we love to hear it tick
To pa: cake for Tommy,
And pat u cake for ourself-
For that alone we labor and strive,
And hoard up our golden pelt
This little pig goes to market;
That little pig stays at home;
And we all cry " Ween for our NANNY,
Wherever we chance to roam.
When Jack and Gill go up the hill
To fetch their pail o water,
As sure rs Jack comes tumblng back,
Poor Gill comes tumbling srter.
We seek our bed with Sleepyhead,
We stay awhile with slow;
And fill the pot with Greedy, glad
To sup before we go.
Jack Horners in their corners still
Do ply their busy thumb,
And " What big boy!" we always cry,
Whenever we see the plum.
And "Who comes here ~ cries Trouble:
Lo It's grenadier,
With the sorrow of millions with him.
Seeking his pot o beer.
Concerning the house that Jack built,
Our knowledge we eXat;
But, OH for cats to kill the rats
That eat our treasured malt
Our wisemen into brambles
Still jump with might and main
And those who go to sea in bowls
Rarely come back again.
And don't some hearts, deploring
The things that gnaw and harrow,
Let fall the wheelbarrow, wife and all,
When lanes are rough and narrow?
All I yes the old rhymes suit US
As well as ever they did;
For the gist of our lives, from first to last,
Is under their jingle hid.

SABBATH DAY WALKS.

On Sunday afternoon, by invitation
of Farmer Treadway, who promised
,, to show us more fruit trees and one of
the best farm in the State, we wended
our way to the Treadway Ranch, in
company with the amiab!e and astute
proprietor thereof. The Treadway
ranch is really the best in this valley,
or perhaps IN the State of Nevada.
Tread. has canvassed around until he
has got hold of l60 acres Of the very
vitals, SO to speak, of the whole val
ley. In the vicinity of the dwelling
house, there are several hundred fruit
trees, consisting of apples, pears,
plunIs, ounce, and cherry trees.
There are several i'm Inense rose bushes,
literally full Of bRds aud full blown
yellow roses, watch in a week from
now will be in themselves well worth
a long walk to see. The whole of the
pasture and is nclo>ed with suostan
tial fences, and around one fine piece
of pasture land some $50
trees have been set out this SPRING
and are looking well n dthrIfty. The
grass on the hay land Is full OF native
clover, which has ali the appearance
Oh the ctlillN dItl dTllClt, iidhtS
a very heavy bottom to the grass ana
per consequence will make the hay so
much the more valuable. We saw a
flock of old fashioned geese, sundry
calves, hogs and magnificent cows In
fact, the ranch, in all its aPpurten
ances, exhibits great attention n
thrift. We shall stroll that way when
the fruit is ripe. We have now the
entree and shall take advantage of 1t.
On cur way home, we passed some
very pretty residences and gardens,
the most prominent of which vas DIR.
Sharp's, which we shall devot u
next week remarks to. Robt. tFabb
has perhaps the best arranged garden;
1t is truly "multum in parro," and
reflects great credit on his and family
good taste. H. NJ. Yerinyton will
have a beautiful place in a year or
two, as also his neighbOr, John u.
Fox. In fine, Carson needs to be
properly een to be appreciated. At
this time of the yea it Is the very par
adise of Nevada. and all the Jealousy
and i'll feeling that can te brought t"
bear against it cannot detract from lis
but must in the end point II
cut as the only spot in the State fit TO

the huckstcrs in politics. These Influences ar,
more dangerous than was the rebellion Of tn,

"a Till has passed both Houses of the

There must be some prirote reason for
this unprecedcnt act. The bill in
