ABSENCE or FEAR IN WILD CREA-
TURES.

In letter from the Galapagos Islands
the writer remarks the wonderful tame
ness of the wild creatures that have
hitherto been unmolested. The seals,
he says, seemed to be fond of crawling
under bushes, Just above high-water
mark, and sleeping two or three in more
place. Under one bush lay a mother
and her cubs, and so fearless was the
old one, that when one of the officers
held II piece of cracker TO her nose she
smelled at it as fearlessly as if she had
been apetsdog. The tameness of many
of the birds was also surprising, for the
fingers might be put within half an
inch of little yellow-birds, and within
six inches of mocking- birds.

Marriage i'm High Life.

The marriage of Mr. Justice Belinap
to Miss Jennie Bradley, daughter of His
Exccllency the Governor, took place at
the gubernatorial mansion, in Carson,
Tueseay evening at o'clock, the cere-
mony being performed by the Right
Rev. Bishop Whitaker, D. d., of the
Episcopal Church. The bride was
dressed elegantly and in exquisite taste.
Her magnificent figure appeared to adj
mirable advantage in white dress Of
the richest gros grain, ell train, looped
deeply with point lace 1ounces and
adorned with lilies of the valley; low
corsage. Her beautiful hair was crowned
with orange blossoms and arranged in
braids and puifs and pendent curls. A
necklace wreath Of orange buds encir-
cled her neck. Jewelry of flowers in
exquisite taste. The usual flowing
bridal veil completed the magnificent
and striking apparel OF the youthful and
handsome bride Miss Bradford, brides
maid, accompanied by Mr.. Harry Day,
looked charming, dressed in white
tarlatan en- train, deliberately trimmed
with puffs and ruffles; applique lace
undersleeves and collar: hair put up in
puffs and curls and ornamented with
pink flowers. Miss Waldron appeared
upon the arm OF His Excellency and
stood near by in attendance, attired in
while tarlatan, rut1ied with rose-colored
trimmings, and looked very lovely.
Several hours after the ceremony,
which was performed quietly, with only
a few friends in attendance, visitors be-
gan to appear in accordance with the in
vitation of the Governor to a general re-
ception of the people. A large number
of richly dressed ladies and gentlemen
came to offer respects to the host and
to the charming bride
and manly groonl-a couple equally rep
of the highest order of cul-
lure and social worth. The supper pre-
pared was bountcous and excellent, and |

The GAMBLING BILL comes up for dis.

are not posted as to the prospects of its
passage or non-passage, but from what
we have been hearing in and about the
chambers of legislation we presume
that the fight over it will be hot and
stubborn. The lobby has been full to
running over with home sports and
sports from abroad for the last three
days. The news has gone abroad now
that the Legislation had to-day will prob

There is strong feeling also in the
community Mt large who are eager for
the passage of the bill on moral grounds,
but have no material interest at stake in
the decision of the question. These
latter, however, are hardly less eager and
earnest in their endeavors to secure the
passage, than the sporting fraternity the

CORRECTIVE AND APoLoGETIC.-In a
chat with the Rev. Mr.. Allen, yesterday,
We learned to our modification that in
our report of the ladies fair, that several
ladies who took prominent parts and
worked earnestly in the good cause were
overlooked. No one, we are sure, could
entertain the thought that such an over
sight could possible be accounted for ex-
cept on the ground of inadyertency. The
fact of the business seems to be that our
reporter was too much carried away with
the fun and festivity himself. under the
influence of "nightcap" and otherwise,
to see things as they were. Mrs Den
yer, We are assured by Mr.. Allen, made
the delicious ice cream herself and con-
tributed it all, or at least the larger part
of it, very literally for the general good.

freshment. Mrs. Fox, who now appears
so wildly before the eye of our recollec-
ton as she stood administering nectari-
Gus lemonade so gratefully to the weary
ones, also failed.to be credited for her
valuable services. And again, Mrs.
Gardner and Mrs. Greenlaw, who sup
pressed every desire to take part in the
various diversions and pastimes, and
stood the whole evening through, re-
spectively, at the coffee and oyster
stands, giving aid and comfort to the
languishing-whom we now remember
so well, were not named with those with
whom they concurred in the work of the
noble enterprise. And now, in conclu-
sion, let us pray that our reporter shall
never again fall SO grossly into such
gross error as not to give due credit to
a most charming young lady, the finest
and most exemplary scholar of that adj
mirable institution, the Sierra Seminary.
This young lady, Miss Jenny Lynds,
suggested the idea of the fortune-telling
eggs and superintended their sale, Civ

ing service to some of her young friends
who were willing to act as substitutes
for her. If any further oversights
should be discovered, let US know it, and
our reporter shall be turned over to the
tender mercies Of the ladies, with the
recommendation that they do pluck
out his hair and make chignon rats of
the same.

VETO D1sREGARDED The question
whether the bill for the relief of til,
Rhoades' bondsmen should be passed
Notwithstanding the Governors veto
came up in the Senate, yesterday, hav
ing been made special order to follow
Immediately upon the reading Of the
minutes. The case involves large sum
of money and the most important con
siderations of law, and moreover is main
ly local issue with us as the majorit v
Of the bondsmen are of this county.
The lobby was filed with spectators
eager to hear all that should be said.
The first words of Mr. Stevenson, who
introduced the discussion, were listened
to i'll painful stiffness and solemn silence,
but the veil of gravity was shortly re-
moved when it was found that no new
developments were to be unfolded nor
any fuller explanation to be made. Mr..
Stevenson would vote for the passage of
the bill mainly rs matter of expediency
or policy, AS the prospective result of zen
ergetic prosecution seemed to be merely
an indefinite throwing away of good
money without hope Of recovery. Sew
eral members rose to express the highest
esteem and Difference for His Excellency
and to give vent to the pain which they
felt III opposing his veto, purely on prin-
ciples of judgement. Mr.. Varian had
presented minority report, and found it
an unsettled question of cogitation for
himself, how it was that his opinion hap
pened to run counter to the notions of
forty-nine of his associate Legislators.
He believed that long established GUS
tom had determined it, that the Govern
or should not interpose his veto other
than in matters involving constitutional
doubt; and not in questions of pure ex-
petliency where the Legislature, a branch
of the Government coordinate with the
executive department, has weighed the
virtues of a bill and the ma jority of both
Houses have expressed the opinion that
it should be made law. Mr.. Eastman
did not aim to make 4 speech; he begged
to differ from the gentleman from Hum
boldt, Mr.. Varian, however. The con-
stitutiOn pres1mes that the Governor
will make known his opinion on every
bill presented to him. Shall he approve
bill when he disapproves of it? Shall
he say nothing to the contrary, and
thereby place himself in a false position2
Mr.. Eastman thought not. The vote
was called for, when roll calls and pen
ellis were put in place. The Secretary
called the roll with the result. which
may be seen by reference to our Senate
proceedings, and the crowd in the lobby
made themselves scarce.

The resolutions called for the representa-
tive5 of the counties to act as committees
to secure subscriptions and call meetings
and for the Centennial Finance Board
of Nevada to publish information to the
people, with the resolutions, in all the
papers of the State, they being request
ed so to aid the work by such publication.
Judge McClinton sent word that Esncr-
aida county would take her share. Mr.
Stevenson said it was in contemplation
to authorize County Commissioners, by
act, to subscribe for any stock not taken
by individuals. He was sure, however,
the people would take the stock. Mr..
Mccoy said these resolutions would call
the attention of the people, and if they
failed within the 100 days allotted, the
proposed Act will save Nevada, but the
counties should donate but cannot legal
ly subscribe. The money will be re-
turned to the counties with fair profit.
The resolutions were then adopted. Mr..
Woodson of California being called upon
presented and read a paper, giving
sketch of the proposed plan of the ex-
hibition. 1t was ordered that the State
papers be requested to publish with the
resolutions, the paper read by Mr.. Wood
son. Remarks We're then made by
Messrs. Bonniiield: Savage, Prague,
Haskell, Leete, Proctor, Crawford, and
several others. It was resolved as the
sense of the meeting that Wells, Fargo
& Co.'S agents in Nevada be authorized
to receive subscriptions, and report to
the Finance Commissioners, and hold
such subscriptions to the order of the
proper authorities. 4 committee was
named to solicit subscriptions in this and
Douglas county. Aresolution appealing
to the women of Nevada to aid the work
was adopted.

shortly after ten o'clock in the morning,
in a saw mill on Clay street, between
Park and Liberty streets, in the centre

was blowing spread it rapidly north and
east, and in two hours there were one
hundred buildings in flames. Passing
beyond the control Of the Baltimore hre
men, assistance was asked from Wash
