CARSON ITEMS.

We extract the following from the
Register OF this morning:
workmen yesterday commenced
LAYING a shing.e roof on the Capitol
building. The tin roof with which the
structure was covered when erected
has been found incapable Of keeping
out show and rain, and In order to pro-
tect the building from being damaged
by water OIL the inside, the editice Will
be covered with q roof Of shingles,
which will afterwards be painted, as o
surer protection to the Capitol. The
single roof is being laid on top Of the
thu one originally put on, and we
doubt not will prove a sure preventive
against the building being damaged BY
the storms Of Winter.
On Sunday last q Chinaman was Sc
riously Injured at Franktown In try
ing to get on the cara while In motion.
In trying to jump on n freight train he
missed his footing and fell between
the platform of the depot and the
track. having his shoulders crushed
aud a leg broken BY the cars passing
over him. He was not expected to re-
cover at last accounts.
The new depot building Of the Vir-
ginia aud Truckee Railroad, freight
and passenger, In this city. are being
painted and otherwise completed. The
passenger depot Is being plastered
throughout the interior, aud will pre-
sent a due appearance when finished.
The locomotive, Lyon, which has
been undergoing repairs in the rail-
road shop at this place for some time,
was put upon the track yesterday In
good shape, and is making her regular
trips a. heretofore.

ME BOSTON CALAMITY.

The terrible fiery scourge which has
lust laid waste a large extent Of the
most valuable and important business
portion of the city of Boston, Is worse
than the Chicago calamity, and indeed
Is unparalleled In the history Of tho
world. There have been fires Of great
er extent destroying more buildings,
but none are automatically recorded
where such an amount Of valuable pro-
perty was destroyed, ard the general
interests Of the whole country were so
directly affected. As q matter OF
course the principal insurance COM
panIes suffered severely, and some OF
them which managed to weather the
Chicago adversely, will hardly be able
TO withstand this second overwhelming
stroke, but will demonstrate the fact
that there. are no infallible Insurance
companies, or absolutely 1se-proof
buildings. Although there were not
so many poor people burned out OF
house and home as there were In CHI
cage. yet there are more thrown ou'
Of employment, and those who are
now rendered homeless, have the dis
tressing calamity fall upon them just
as the cold Winter Is about setting In.
It Is an i'll wind, however, which
blows no one any good. The burnt
district will be rebuilt just as soon as
Is possible, giving active employment
10 all who can work, ut advanced
wages, and 1t will be better and more
substantially built than before. The
greatest loss falls upon those best able
to stand 1t. Sometimes we fancy that
such calamities are simply In accord
ance with the great law OF natural
equilibrium ; that fire Is not only lit
orally a great leveler and equalizer OF
property. but so In a socialistic sense.
The rich lose their heavy accumula-
lions Of wealth, yet they do not suffer,
for they still have enough left, and In
time may o their losses. AS for
instance, one unfortunate young man
who was heir to a snug little fortune
of fifteen millions In real estate, saw
his magnificent buildings destroyed,
one after the other, by the remorseless,
seething flames, and he was lett With
out q roof Of his own to cover his poor
head, yet after all he had plenty 81
ground beneath his feet, q very small
portion of which no could easily sell or
mortgage for enough to keep him from
starving. The poor people, however,
who have lost all, and those enterprls'
Ing capitalists aud business men who
are really ruined by this fearful afiic'
ton are deserving Of the warmest sym
pathy and the promptest assistance
and we are much pleased to notice thai
measures for relief are already inaugu
rated not only throughout the East ou'
also In the West and cities Of the Pa
clfic coast. Boston responded righI
literally, promptly and nobly to thu
relief of Chicago, and now In turn de
serves, and will undoubtedly receive
%appreciative assistance from all quar-
ters.

THE SPIEl-MARK.

Colonel Flnnegass on Saturday, says
the San Francisco Chronicle, arrested
tho following named persons for SELL
Ing or having In their possession spiel
marks: C. p. Van Setback, D'Alna
Moss, Andrew Kohler, Jacob Cohen. j.
8. Leaders, 5. Z. Blake, A. Il. Holbert,
w. Sharp, E. Pasqualo, j. A. Chase
and w. A. Frey. They each gave bail
in 81 1000 for their appearance for trial.
Two of them. Kohler and Chase, were
arrested for importing and selling the
articles. Splel-marks look like double
eagles, but Il. Is folly to pretend that
they are imported and sold for dis
honest purposes. They are used Us
markers for card games the same as
poker checks. All the gentlemen
named above as arrested, are we'll
known business men, and every Ger
man knows that the making and SELL
ing Of spiel-marks Is an old business.
These spiel-marks are very light, not
half as heavy as double-eagles, and no
one should mistake them for coins ;
yet several parties have been convicted
OF passing them as genuine coin, and
several others are charged with the
same oifense. 1t would be we'll If the
making OF them In their present shape
were stopped, and we trust that no
more ofthem may be allowed to be sold

THE RESCUED WHALER

The ship Minerva, Of the Arctic
whaling fleet, which was rescued by
tho wrecking party Of the bark Flor
ence and brought to this city, says the
San Francisco Chronicle Of yesterday,
was sold on Saturday, on Front street
wharf, by order Of the United States
Courts. The sale was conducted uu-
der the auspices Of United States Mar.
shall Morris. The ship, with the sails,
boats, etc we're purchased by Captain
Swift of New Bedford, for $3.50. The
extra barrels, h~ogsheads, etc., brought
three cents per gallon. The sperm oil,
Of which there were $500 gallons, was
sold for II cents per gallon ; and the
whale oil, amounting to l,4O0 gallons,
went for ~ cents per gallon. A Quan-
tity Of chains, picked pork, beef, ETC.,
we're sold In small lots at fair prices.
The sale was BY order Of the United
States Courts and on account Of whom
1t may concern. The vessel IL said to
have gone cheap, as she Is staunch and
sound, and with a few repairs can yet
be made to do many years service.

ties to South America, he will 60 out

TuosE QUAKER GuNs."-The San
Francisco Chronicle Of yesterday says:
The Brothertons and Riley, In their
account Of the escape from the County
Jail. make n great laugh " now they
scared jailer Franklin with Quaker
guns. This story will hardly pass
muster when It is known as a fact that
a large carving knife was missing from
the Jail after the Brothertons left.
Captain Lees yesterday stated to a
Chronicle reporter that be knew that
the Brothertons had revolvers when
they escaped and up to twenty minutes
before their arrest, when they were
handed over to their frents; Colonel
Lee having met them on Howard
street. This is mos: likely the truth,
and Mr.. Franklin has good reasons for
believing that unless he yielded to the
forgers and Riley, he would. have a
good chance TO make a subject for Cor
ouer Stlllman's ~dissecting room.

A BusH-wHAcKINe DEACON.
[From tha Pitt,burc Leader.l

They are not all Cinnamon that live
at Beaver Falls, that beautiful village
In the hills where imported coolies are
engaged In the home industrial pursuit
OF making cutlery. A young lady OF
lawful age, and, as she AYERS, sound
discretion. tired Of single loneliness
and believing In the rights Of her sex,
made moro emphatic by leap-year
privileges, and FESTIVE under the re-
straint OF Economic regulations re-.
parding celibacy, saw, admired and
Conquered a willing captive Of the
sterner sex, but dif1dent disposition.
He was a widower, and wearted OF bis
lone condition, but never told his love.
She was a maiden, with a pious but
cross father. She looked not nor cared
for his consent, but bravely Invited
the object of her choice to a secret mar
riage as a strategic move ment against
the deacon's opposition.
Having married, they met frequently
and secretly, but eventually the old
man got wind Of tho meetings, and
laid In ambush In the garden last
| Thursday, armed and equipped with
a poker, to be used upon the man who
had stolen away his daughters aftec-
lions. He had not long 20 walt. The
recent wldower and late lover, but
now happy husband. went Into the
garden at 10 o'clock In the evening to
meet his wife, when the irate old nan
with the domestic iron implement rose
I'D and laid the poker about the head
and shoulders Of his son-in-law with
all that incorporating energy for
which irate fathers Of manageable
daughters are so remarkable. A new
silk hat was ruined, but the beaver
acted as q helmet to a certain extent,
and, so far as a hat could do 1t, faith
fully protected tho head of Its owner,
who taltered bnt for q moment ere he
nsed all due diligence In taking his de-
parture from the angry presence.
On the following day the daughter
of the deacon confessed all, which only
added fuel to tho flame of the ole
gents anger. The pastor of the vii
fage, under whom the deacon had FOL
many years officiated, interposed sooth
Ing words, but the wrath Of a deacon
Is not so easily ~appeased. Still there
were no more blows except the heayi'
est blow Of all, which fell In the shape
of the arrival Of the lawful husband ir
a carriage and the departure Of thu
Young bride. Now sorrow brood
over the hearth Of the deacon, and
Is to he hoped that the late widowe
and his fair young bride may live hap
PLY during their allotted three.scor'
and ten years Of earthly existence.

demic prevailing among those animals
which threatens to seriously affect the
supply Of venison. Hesays that herds
we're frequently seen In which there
would be dozens scarcely able to travel

MKrrIoN RETURNs.

The election returns come In very

Burgess and Titu, are elected upon
the democratic, and Horton and Ell
on the Republican ticke. although the
PROBABILITIES are that the matter will
not DO definitely decided until the ON.
cIal count is made. Cassidy Is elected
Senator; Anderson, District Attorney
Clifford, Assessor, and Bidleman he
oorder. All the rest Of the county Of
ftoers elect are Republicans. In Beo-
wave precinct the entire Democratic
ticket triumphed. Eureka, Spring
yolley, Garden Valley and Ruby Hill
gave Republican majorities. The ST.
rer State, (Humboldtl OF Saturday,
says: It Is too early to announce ex-
act results, but the probabilities are
that among the Democratic candidates
for Legislative and county offices
Kelly IL elected to the Assembly
Grass, District Attorney; King
Sheriff, and Kyle, Assessor. Among
Radicals, those certainly elected are
varian, Senator; Leonard, District
Judge; Twlss and stoddard, Assem-
blymen, and Borland, County Com
missioner. Levy, being supported by
