The new daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1872-1873, 1872-09-09

From Herper's Weekly.

Mr.. Beck. one of the Democratic lead
$ in the House of Representatives, late
l. made one of the charges against the
L emocratic Administration which are now
Il chief or, of the alliance against the
f publican party. Mr.. Beck's charge is
good illustration of the kind of warfare
that is waged BON the President. twas
as follows: During the last fiscal year,
in defiance of that law TACT of July 18th,
1901, the War Department, as IS shown
by the report of the Secretary OF the
Treasury, expended $8,OO0,O00 in excess
of the appropriations, and sold arms to
the French to make gooC the deficiency;
and the proceeds of those arms are now
deposited in the Treasury to the credit of
that Department, subject to be drawn out
by it, The Secretary of War, in a let
ter to Mr. DAVIS, remarks that Mr.. Beck
is in error at all points, and proceeds in
the tersest and most conclusive manner
to prove it. The War Department did
not expend any sums in excess of appro-
priation; it did not sell arms to make
good the deficiency; even if there We're a
deficiency, the money to the credit of or
dinance stores could not be used to make
it good; the proceeds of the sales men-
toned are not in the Treasury to the
credit of the War Department, nor sub
ject to its order. The Secretary leaves
little of Mr. Beck.
Mr.. Fernando Wood made an attack Of
the usual kind upon General Dyer, Chief
of the Ordinance Department, to which
the general replied in letter so conclu-
sive that Mr.. Wood retracted his charges.
1t is by the incessent reiteration of such
charges that the campaign is conducted
of anything and anybody to beat Grant.

NEW POSTAL CONvENIENCEs.

The new postal bill enacted before Con-
gress rose, authorizes one cent postal
cards for correspondence or for printed
circulars, similar to those which were in
troduced in Great Britain nearly two
years ago and are now in use in nearly all
European countries. Whether the card
shall be provided by flap to cover and
conceal the writing is for the Postmaster
to decide, who is said to prefer the open
card, and will order that kind only to be
manufactured. The face of the card will
bear one cent stamp, and will be pro-
vided with lines far the address, and the
back will be ruled for the letter. The
price of the card and stamp will be only
one cent. 1t will probably be three or
four weeks before they viii he ready for

lars, newspapers and other transient
printed matter, which under the old law
was two cents for every four ounces or
less small circulars, which formerly cost
two cents can now be sent for one cent,

who use the mails largely to advertise
their business. The change is now in
force, the law being immediate in its ef-

BUSINESS NOTICE.

THE New CARSON APPEAL" is de-
signed to fill a vacancy caused by the
premature death of its elder brother, and
give to the citizens of Ormsby county

intentions of its protector to make it one
of the permanent business institutions of
the State.

lows:
Delivered by Carrier in Carson. Soc per week

TAILLEss TROUT IN ScorLAND.--At the
late meeting of the British Association
some so-called tailless trout were exhibit
ed, which were said to occur in coxidera-
bic numbers in u certain loch in Scotland,
about a thousand feet above the level Of
the sea, and about one acre in extent.
It is so shallow that man can wade
through it, and has q stony bottom, with
q few weeds. Although surrounded by
other lochs, the tailless trout were found
exclusively in the one in question. The
precise nature of the mutilation was not
given. It was stated in the discussion
which ensued upon the exhibition of this
specimen that in other localities in Great
Britain there were streams in which trout
without tails, and sometimes without
other tinS. were not uucomEnou.

A few weeks since q we'll educated
young woman, the daughter of wealthy
parents, suddenly disappeared, from her
home in an eastern city. She was final
ly discovered, dressed in suit of her
brothers clothes and working in car
riage factoay about forty miles away.
When taken back she vowed that her sole
object was to be talked about ''Didn t
the neighbors talk when left, - she said
and won't they talk more now, when
they hear where 1 have been and what
have done?"

SOME OF OUR NEW FEATURES.

The field Of Journalism is 80 very lim-
tied here rs to afford but little room for
varying from the old routine which has
always characterized the Carson press;
and while we cannot expect to startle this
community with the exhibition of novel
ties; and while it would be the hight of
extravagant folly for us to attempt such
mpossibilities as the publication of full
(or even eondensed) telegraphic reports:
and absurd as it would be for US to branch
out into the realms Of big newspaperdom !;
We cannot, in reason, be expected to sur
pass our worthy local contemporary in
much besides an exhibition Of our inhe-
rent goodness and amiability four we'll
known distinctive qualities); but We are
unlike our neighhor, the Register in SO far
as We do not intrude our journalistic lucu-
brations upon the sacredness of the
Christian Sabbath-for, as will be OBJ
served, we publish on Monday and not on
Sunday mornings. May our example not
be lost upon our unregenerated neiShbor!
Another of our new features-and this,
no joking, is something worth while-is
what appears to-day for the first time
in Carson (first time since the early
days, at any rate) namely: correct and
full reports of the evening transactions
of the San Francisco Stock Board. This
will enable US to accommodate our friends
here and on the river considerably in ad-
vance of any other papers.
So fast as other possible improvements
suggest themselves We shall make them.

THE DEvONS.

We take the following description from
Aliens American Cattle: This beautiful
race has been considered, by some authors,
aboriginal, and are claimed to have been
known in England at the time of its inva-
sion by the Romans. 1t is certain that
their fineness of limb, uniformity of color,
delicacy of proportion, and depth of breed
ing, give them claims to a distinction
which no other race Of English cattle
exhibit; and be the fact of their remote
origin as it may, there is no necessity Of
disputins it, or specializing on other prob
abilities. They are like no others, and by
no intermixture Of any other known breeds
have they been, or can they be produced.
In size, the Devon is medium, compared
with our native cattle. A we'll grown OK,
in good working condition, will range from
1, 400 to LOGO pounds live weight. The
bull from 1000 to 1000, and the COW from
500 to 1000 pounds. They sometimes
exceed the heaviest of these weights, but
such are the average.
AS a DAIRY COW,
The Devon may be called medium, in the
quantity of milk she yields, and in it's quail
ity, superior. The older, or unimproved
race, were somewhat noted for the quaint
ties of milk they produced, as well as its
good quality. \ gallon of Devon milk
yielded more butter than that of almost
any other breed, as it does now, except the
Attorney. Docile in temper, easy of keep,
placable in disposition, she is readily man
aged. Her udder is soft, tidy in shape,
with thin, silky hair upon it, clean, taper
teats, easily drawn, and every way salts
factory to her keeper.
AS an evidence Of the milking qualities
of the Devons, very considerable diaries
of them have long been kept in England.
Mr.. Conyers, of Epping, who in the year
1888, kept dairy of them, says: "Upon
an average, ten cows gave me sixty pounds
of butter per week, in summer, and twen-
ty-four pounds in winter
AS \ WORKING OK.
No animal of the same size and weight
equals the Devon-for the following rea-
sons: They are, among cattle, what the
Thorough bred " is among horses. Ac-
cording to their size, they combine more
tineness of bone, more muscular power,
more intelligence, activity, and o,tom,"
than any other breed. They have the
slanting shoulder of the horse, better fitted
to receive the yoke, and carry it easier to
themselves than any others, except the
Ilerefords. Their uniformity in style,
Shape, and color, render them easily match
ed, and their activity in movement, partic-
ularly on rough and hilly grounds, give
them, for farm labor, almost equal value to
the horse, with easier keep, cheaper food,
and less care.
