OUR COUNTY TICKET.

The ticket put in the field by the Re
publican Convention of Ormsby county
appears in its appropriate place in this
| issue of the APPEAL Inasmuch as it en-
braces many of the present efficient Off
GERS of the county it cannot but be regard
ed as good, strong, acceptable ticket:
and if those who comprise its nominees
will all pull together they can be elected
without any trouble. The Legislative
nominees embrace three new names,
Messrs. Keyser and Tobriner of Carson
and MIR. Lyman of Empire. These gen.
tlemen are all identified with the interests
of Ormsby county and are, like the rest
of the nominees, entitled to the support
of every man who is partizan enough to
abide by the decisions of his party's
counsels and good enough Republican
to prefer Republicans to Democrats for
Office. We deem it needless either to
each candidate by name and
pedigree or to make any preachments

he majority ofthat body itself!
With regard to the ticket placed in tn
| field by these Conglomerates we have this
to say: That the nomination of Judge
Seawell, who is, from common report,
the best man that the Democracy could
have selected, renders the necessity all
the more urgent for the nomination of
Judge Lewis by our State Convention;
and if this movement by the Democracy
will have that effect it will bring about
a very desirable consummation. Ken
dall's nomination, barren as it is of any
significance except that of distrustful-
ness by his party of their ability to elect
Anybody, was matter of course: but the
nomination of John c. Lewis to the office
of State Printer was the most cxtrava-
giant and preposterous concession to the
Liberals We ever heard of. We doubt if
there be as many as thirty seeding Re
publicans in the State; and that such
Democrats as Charley Perkins, George
Cassidy, and T. ] Ham should be thrown
overheard in order to make room upon
the ticket for an old Republican like
Lewis is the most absurd and needless di- |
version of party spoils we have ever
heard Of The generally credited state
ment that Booth of the Register is to have |
a hand in the pie don't better the matter,
if it be ever SO true. The fact is that the
Liberals, by talking big and getting them
selves into prominent places blutfed the
oewildered Democracy into granting this
concession.
If the Republicans of Nevada are de-
eated by so weak a ticket as this; if they
permit the Democracy to get majority
lpon the Supreme Bench; if they are so
eeble in purpose as to permit Kendall to
'e elected; and if they by any apathy of
heir own allow Bob Clarke to take the
Electoral vote of Nevada to Washington
hey deserve to be disbanded and dis
'ersed from the field of politics forever

Convention We place the following con-
densation of the resolutions adopted at
the Soldiers and Sailors Convention at
Pittshurg. Says the report:
The Soldiers and Sailors Convention reassem-
bled at IL O'Clock this morning. The committee
on Resolutions, through its Chairman, General
HaWley, reported a series of resolutions which
were unanimously adopted The first expressed
pleasure at meeting again and reviving the MEM
orles of their campaigns fer union and hbt rty:
the second reathrlns devotion to the Union: the
third protests against transferring the control of
the army, navy, treasury and the entire Govern
ment. the constitutional amendments, with the
execution OF the laws themselves, to the selfish
and corrupt coalition composed chiefly OF ele-
ments but recently in open hostility to them
The fourth says: We cherish no spirit of revenge

concerning our Senatorial preferences as
disregarded by this Convention. We
propose, however, to be faithful friend
OF this party and as ardent supporter
OF its nominees as if we We're one of the
majority faction; and We will repeat that
re hold that this ticket is entitled to the
hearty, effective, earnest support of every
man in Ormsby county who calls him
self Republican. We will not disguise
the fact that we believe that some mis-
takes have been committed and that some
irregularities have occurred; but we also
believe that true friendship for the par
ty and its principles demands that moth
ing shall be done to weaken the ticket
that has been selected, and that the true
way to effect future reforms is to remain
so faithful to the party as to maintain
full and indubitable right to advocate its
cause and advise regarding its course of
action.

IDEA OF DEATH THAT death and
sleep are very much alike, the sages all
tell US, but see how attractively Leigh
Hunt describes the latter: 1T is de-
licious moment certainly: that Of being
well nestled in bed, and feeling that you
drop gently to sleep. The good is to
come--not past ;the limbs have been just
tired enough to render the remaining in
one position delightful, the labor OF the
day is done. a gentle failure OF tie per-
ception comes creeping oyer one; the
spirit cf consciousness dIscngaEes Itself
more with slow and hushInS degrees,
like mother detaehing hor hand from
that Of her sleeping child, the mind seems
to have balmy lid closing over it, like
the eye It's closing closed. The
mysterious spilit has gone to take It's
