COMPILATION OF THE LAws.-The Viz
ginia Chronicle very truly says what
every practitioner in the Courts of this
State will probably endorse:
The compilation of the laws OF Nevada
has long been much needed and felt as
public necessity by all who have occa.
sion to consult the numerous and incon-
gruous statutes. NJ. S. Bonnifeld and
7. W. Healey have been engaged for
large portion of the last two wears in
compiling these laws. From what we
have seen of the manuscript and learn
from those who have examined the work.
we are constrained to pronounce it of
great value, and rejecting credit upon
the compilers. The live laws are only
inserted, with the various amendments
in their appropriate places in the several
Acts. The manuscript contains copious
notes and references, together with the
decisions of the Supreme Court of Neva-
da on the statute law. The work con-
tains 204 chapters, besides all the Con
gressional laws of the State, together
with the Declaration of Independence,
Constitution of the United States, the
naturalization laws, etc. We will give
this work further notice, giving more
minute details hereafter. We under
stand it will be presented to the next
session of the Legislature, and aid asked
for its publication. 1t has been submit
ted to the Judges of the Supreme Court,
and Judge Lewis has given certificate
of recommendation.

The Almighty Dollar.

The United States mint has COM
menced the process of melting the first
lnstallment 000,000) of twenty mil
lions of 81 gold pieces which, during the
ensuing month, are to be reCOined and
converted into pieces of larger denomin-
ations Those who remember the one
dollar gold pieces Git has been a long
while since we saw One) will remember
that these pieces were of incOnyenient
size, and now that gold has come to be
used principally as a commercial COM
modify, or a simple standard of values,
the Government has experienced cOnsid-
erable trouble in issuing them to persons
who wish coin in large quantities. This
fact has induced the Government to take
them from the vaults of the sub-treasury
in New York, where they have been ly-
ing idle for the past few years, and
place the mental in a more durable
shape for the accommodation of brokers
and dealers in foreign merchandise.
Since 1919, when the first one dollar
gold pieces were coined at the Mint, to
the year 1867. when the coinage of that
particular denomination was stopped,
there has been a sum total of S17, 7,709,-
442 made in the Philadelphia Mint
alone. Owing to the absence of the of
fetal information we are unable to say
how many of this particular coin were
made ut the branch mints at New Or
leans (hcfOre the war; and San Francis
co, but it is presumed that the whole
number issued will amOdnt to something
over thirty millions, 1t should be re-
membcred that this sum refers eXclu-
sively to the one dollar pieces.
Now that this vast sum Of money is
about being melted mp, our reporter has
been enabled to gather some curious
figures concerning it, which will no
doubt prove interesting to all classes of
readers.
One million Of gold dollars, when first
issued bv the mint, will weigh 1856
pounds avoirdupois, or fraction over one
ton ltwcnty cwt) and four tifths. In
twenty millions of dollars we have near
}y thirty-three tons.
Selecting a number of pieces from
those coined IN each year from 1S49 to
1867, and striking an average, we find
by close calculation that the amount lost
by abrasion in one million dollars is
81. 40S. 81. In other words, 500, 900, 900
in use by the public, say for ten years,
loses bv wear and tear sum total of
SSS, 167.40-a neat fortune. In plain
terms, a gold dollar-piece is one-eigh-
tcpnth of an inch in thickness. BY cal
culation, it will be found that if the
twenty million of pieces to be melted at
the Mint were piled one upon another in
a straight perpendicular line, they would
reach the altitude Of eleven and five
sixth nilcs-an hours trot for 4 road
ster.
Were these pieces 100000, ,0OO) laid flat
down on a level plain, they would cover
a straight line one hundred and fifty
eight miles long, or from Philadelphia
to New York. and something over half
way back again Philadelphja Te5e-

A war Cloud in Europs.

There is unquestionably cloud on our
horizon. 1t is as yet no larger than the
| Cars hand. but that is rather a large
hand, especially when it stretches over
in the direction of India. For long
time the English people have been ap-
prehensive that Russia had designs upon
her Indian poss SESSIONS, and the matter has
been very anxiously discussed. The cry
of '"wolf, ," with which all who suggested
danger ahead were met for year after
the Crimean war, has not been so prompt
and loud since Russia tore up the treaty
which withheld her from the Black Sea,
and in a moment annulled the whole re-
suit of the war. And now the news
that Russian army is marching to the
Oxus, with a moral certainty OF becOm-
ing speedily pOssessOr of khlvan, comes
to remind England that to fight Russia
is to play the part of the warrior IN OLD
fable who slays monster only to see 1t
piece itself together again-like Night
after Apollo's arrows of light have de-
stroyed it. The swiftness with which
this movement has followed the meeting
of the three Emperors at Berlin, IS one
of the most unpleasant features OF 1t.
That Prussia and Austria have promised
aid and comfort to Russia in the East,
Droyided she will let alone the West, is,
of course, a very obvious theory. But
no explanations of that kind is needed
for the Russian movement. The help
lessness of France is enough to explain
that, as it may become the explanation
of many another movement Russia
does not fear England unallied with
France. and if she is ever to satisfy her
Oriental aspirations, undoubtedly now is
the promised moment. The question;
what to do, is already being discussed
here. England has long made up her
mind never to go into war again, except
purely on the defensive. But what is
the defensive :? Is it, in this case for ex-
brought his power to the very door of
English India, and thus intrenched hlm-
self in powerful position, holding the
Turcomans his vassals, and a fruitful
land ready to furnish him endless sup
plies? To conquer the Valley of the

Oxus would be to the Czar, in an attack
on India, worth 100000 soldiers With
a feeling that the fate of her Indian en-
pire is really trembling in the balance at
this moment, and deep conviction that
she must ultimately have struggle with
powerful enemy on the borders of Aft
ghanistan, England will still, I think,
decline to go to war at present. The
evil day will be showed off as long as
possible. The defense of India is the
only thing ever likely to cause England
to go to war again. The people could
not, [ believe, be made to engage in
earnest war for Canada, Jamaica, Glib
ralta, or even Australia but assuredly
they would defend their power in India
to the last. They look upon that coun-
try as the crown of their historical
greatness. [ once saw Prof. Huxley
point to tiny England on the map, and
then to vast India, to note the fact that
the one ruled the other, as a guage of the
supremacy of the intellectual civilization
over the might of manifold numbers

VERMONT AND THE TRIBUNE. - The
New York Tribune, in its leading edito-
rial, Wednesday morning, asserts that
thousands of voters in Vermont ''were
convinced by money that they might
better vote the Administration than the
Liberal ticket, and that if they could
not so vote, it was for their interest to
stay at home on election day and not
vote at ALL" We pronounce this whole
assertion, SO far as the purchase or at
tempt to purchase republicans, or others,
to vote or stay at home, by any one in
terested in or working for the election of
Gen. Grant, or the success of the repub-
Hcan ticket, base, wilful and Infamous
lie, and moreover, that the writer there
of knew that it was false when he
wrote it. Horace Greeley and his assis-
tants on the editorial staff of the Tri5-
~'ae, have known the men composing the
republican party of Vermont, too long
and too well to make such a statement,
or to have even the least suspicion that
there could be the least foundation of
truth in any such statement.
AS to the insinuation contained in the
paragraph, that men who would sell
their votes are the ones that would natu-
rally follow the fortunes of the liberals
and Horace Greeley, we have nothing to
say. Those of our friends who have
been led astray by this 'Iiberal move
ment, must settle that question among
themselves, and with Mr. Greeley and
with the Tribune.

THE G. H A Nd X T. 5 u l. Il
The Electoral College.

The following table shows the result
in the various States. Missouri is still in
doubt, as is Texas-the latter not hav-
ing yet closed its polls. The only other
changes from the vote announced yes
terday morning are in the majorities,
which are very heavily increased by full
er returns, over the moderate statements
then made. The probabilities of Grants
carrying Virginia are confirmed. THAI
he has carried Louisiana we regard be-
yond a doubt. The popular majorities
are 57.375 greater than we published
yesterday, and amount, in all, to 7O1,-
800, after deducting Greeley's majori-
ties. Only four States and 43 electoral
votes are sure for Greeley, and this can
not be increased by more than two States
and % electoral votes additional.

STONES Thrown THROUGH A CAR
WINDOw.-As the mail train for Rut-
land, Wednesday morning, over the Rut-
land railroad, was approaching New
Haven from the north, stones were
thrown at the car by three graceless
scamps standing near the roadbed. A
lady, accompanied by her four little
children, was sitting near the window of
the car on the side from which the
stones were thrown, and through which
they penetrated, and was hit on the
forehead by one of the missiles, receiv-
ing an ugly and CHASTITY flesh wound
Almost simultaneously with the crash
of the window, Conductor Edward
Green seized the bell cord and signalled
the engineer to stop the train. This be-
ing accomplished, pursuing force was
organized, under the lead of Mr.. Green,
which, after short but determined chase,
captured the three young reprobates,
and quickly had them under wholesome
constraint on the train. The boys,
whose names are, at the present writing,
unknown, were conveyed to Middlebury
and given in custody to the proper Off
GERS and confined in Jail. The prompt
action, on the part of Mr.. Conductor
Green, which led to the immediate ar
rest of these young candidates for Wa
terbury, if not for Windsor, Is worthy
of all praise and is commended to all
railroad officials, as safe and excellent
precedent, to be followed by them un-
der similar circumstances. Speedy ar
rests, followed by as speedy punishment,
will not only insure the safety of the
public, from this and other assaults ON
their persons and property, but by its
wholesome effect tend greatly to deter
our youth and others from that growing
spirit of recklessness, lawlessness and
crime with which they seem to be imbu-
ed. The lady, we are pleased to record.
is not seriously injured and will only
suffer temporary inconvenience from her
wounds.

a Gard FROM Horace Greeley.

The following appeared in the N. \.
Trj5une Of Thursday morning.
The undersigned resumes the Editor
ship Of the Tr55une, which he relin-
Quished on embarking in another line of
business six months ago. Henceforth,
it shall be his endeavOr to make this a
thoroughly Independent journal, treat
ing all parties and political movements
with judicial fairness and candor, but
counting the favor and deprecating the
wrath Of no one.
If he can hereafter say anything that
will tend to heartily unite the whole
American People on the broad platform
of Universal Suffrage, he will gladly do
so. For the present, however, he can
best commend that COnsummatiOn by
silence and fOrbearanCe. The viCtOrs in
our late struggle can hardly fail to take
the whole subject of Southern rights
and wrongs into early and earnest con-
sideratiOn, and to them, for the present,
he RENTS it.
Since he will never again be a candi-
date for any office, and is not in full ac-
cord with either of the great parties
which have hitherto divided the country,
he wil-;be able and will endeavor to give
wider and steadier regard to the progress
of Science, Industry and the Useful
Arts, than a partisan journal can do;
and he will not be provoked to indul-
gence in those bitter personalities which
are the recognized bane of journalism.
Sustained by a generous public, he will
do his best to make the Tribune power
in the broader field it now contemplates,
as, when Human Freedom was imperiled,
it was in the arena of political partisan
ship.
Respectfully,
HORACE GREELEY.

MILITARY REUNION AT MONTPELIER
The members of the Vermont Officers
Reunion Society held their annual
meeting and supper at Montpelier on
Thursday evening, which proved hill
arious and joyous occasion. The fol-
lowing officers were chosen for the en-
suing year. ..
President, Col. Redfield Proctor, Rut-
land; Vice, Presidents, Gen. William
w. Henry, Burlington Col. Thmas o.

tary, Gen. James S. Peck, Montpelier /;
Corresponding Secretary, Col. j. Z.
Stevens, Bradford Executive Commit
tee, Col. Kittridge Haskins, Brattle-
boro, Capt Samuel Z. Burnham, Rut-
land, Captain Richard Smith, Tun-
bridge.
The annual address was delivered in
the Hall of the House of Representa-
tives by Col. Samuel NJ. Pingree, of
Hartford. His subject was ''The Army
of the Potomac; its origin and organi-
zation." The oration was eloquent and
int teresting.
AT the conclusion the party sat down
to an excellent supper at the Pavilion
Hotel. Toasts and speeches followed
until late hour. The Commander-in-
Chief of the Army and Navy of the
United States, the Governor, the hon.
ored dead, and score or more of other
subjects, were in turn appropriately
remembered. Everything passed off in
the happiest manner, and many pleas
ant thing was said which awakened
memories of camp and field.

Press Comments Oh the Great
Victory.
From the New York Tribune

From the New York Tribune.l
There is scarcely parallel to the
completeness of the roate and the
triumph. Democrats have wed with
liberal republicans in contributing to it,
some of them by voting directly for
Grant electors; many more by neglect
ing to vote at all. For the present the
liberal movement seems crushed. Let
no man accuse the able and shrewd
politicians who, as the republican ma
tional committee, directed the canvass
for Gen. Grants reelection, with squan-
dering the unprecedented sums raised
and disbursed by them in this contest
with having played a whole park of
artillery to kill fly. The liberal move
ment was at one time formidable. and
had a'prospect of success. Had not
millions been expended to arrest its pro-
gress in the State elections of the last
three months, it might even have swept
the country, though all the money rails
ed in its behalf would at best have been
pence to balance pounds. But peril
anticipated IS often peril averted.
Thousands of the voters of North Caro-
lima, Vermont, and Maine were convinc-
ed by money that they might better

At present so varied has been the action
that Vermont. in fact. has no settled

is the right to share a lucrative traffic
always granted, where it might, in rea-
son and justice, be done.
There are numerous and positive ar
guments in favor of a general railroad
law. 1t will save the legislature the ix-
yestigation of the knottiest, most vcxa-
