ED. News: 1 have been Waiting at
this place since I last wrote you from
Sacramento, which accounts for my
neglecting you so long. l never saw
a, great q change In 90 short q time as
since I was here before-only about a
week Then every n was rich and
correspondlngly happy ; now all feel
Door. and many are 80 indeed. This
Sudden Fall In sisekh
Caught nearly all, more or less but
the Door suffered the heaviest, for they
had not the money to ill such disas-
trous margins, and were not powerful
enough to command tho influence to
get It, 20 their little savings Of years
were swept into the already loaded
Golfers Of the rich. Then tho rich turn
coolly around and say, "Well, you
must not gamble" after doing every
thing In their power, by fair means
and foul (mostly foulh to Induce them
to venture.
The DlGsrenee.
There Is O little moro excuse for .
msn to try his chance In stocks than ut
the gaming table; for in stocks he
really buys something, with the hope
Of its increasing In value, or OF his
getting interest OH his money In the
way Of dividends, while In gaming 1t
Is all guess work.
Reesseiliahsn Needed.
Most people think the depression Is
only another phnse Of the Jones and
sharon fight. II so, It Is a pity that
the whole community should be made
to suffer. They had better meet and
settle their difficulties between them
selves.
Wsar De - Bet o..
Jones seems to be losing popularity,
for some cause or other. Some who
would like to be his friends say they
are repealed by ~lnsincerity. He prom
ises too much-more than any mar can
fulhll-and when he fails to meet his
engagements they lose confidence In
him. A MAJ cannot be too careful Of
his word, for when 1t becomes geucr-
ally understood that he has no regard
for his promises, or will only keep
them when 1t suits his purpose to do
so, people become suspicious Of him
and say: Ill we cannot rely OH HIN
In small things. how eau we be sure he
will not deceive US IN great ones?"
Political Honesty.
Honesty 10 increasing in value In the
political market. It was the suspicion
OF dishonesty, or, more properly
speaking. in~sincerlty, In Gorhaln and
Jones which defeated the Republicans
four years since in this State, when
Gorham ran for Governor and Jones
for Lieutenant Governor. The same
suspicion defeated the Republicans In
Nevada at the last Gubernatorial elcc-
ton, and again that lack Of confidence
defeated the Democrats last year In
this State. The people like to think
they are electlng n reliable man. though
they may no deceived after he gets Into
Office, as our Legislative body proved
this last Winter.
Greeley stsek RisInE.
The Greeley faction seems to be in-
creasing here, and II the Democrats
indorse him I believe he will run
Grant a very close race, with II fair
chance OF boating him here As well as
elsewhere.
81. Jsnos asd Greeley
Hold one trait In common: that Is,
they are easily influenced by flattery ;
consequently tho sycophants and un-
scrupulous will have the greatest In
fiuenco with them II they are elected.
I have no preferences, for | do not like
any OF the nominees or candidates.
So, like the old woman, when her hus-
band and the bear were fighting, | soy
go 1t husband ; 20 1t bear!"
Amssemsnts
Seem below par here. The stupid old
plays mumbled over by Miss Leclercq
do not offer sufficient inducement to
keep one out Of bed till II Pm, while
the MINISTRIES arc fiat, stale and un.
profitable" The Metropolitan was no
better until Wheatleigh came. l hear
he draws good houses. He Is always
good at anything lie attempts to play.
There Il the usual amount Of concerts,
etc., which In nine cases out Of ten are
q bore.
Drsss Items fer the Ladies.
I suppose the ladies would like to
know what their fashionable sisters In
the big city are wearing. Well, they
are wearing Dolly Vardens In the
house, on the street and everywhere
made Of calico, Creton, brilliant or
Foulard silk, but with the never
ending gay figures and flowers. The
largo figures do not prevail. Dolly
Warden hats, tucked up on both aides
with flowers, and turned up behind
and down before, 60 with them; but
for dress hats, a sort OF half hat and
half bonnet Il worn-high crown, front
turned up and back turned down, with
veil on the back and flowers all over 1t.
Hsw . Dress Rashis.abIy.
The only thing absolutely necessary
In the making Of a dress Is to have 1t
trimmed as deliberately as possible,
have about ten yards puckersd up into
the most uugraceful heap possible on
that portion where Grecian bends most
do congregate, and have the skirt just
long enough to catch all the filth OF
tie street-then they are mshionabl'.
Tho little circular capes, split up the
back and sometimes Topped up OH the
shoulder, are greatly worn for wraps,
aud on a slight figure they look nicely.
II this Is not sufficiently lucid to give
you n correct Idea, I will get some
lady to help me next time.
