The new daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1872-1873, 1873-02-07

The LADIES "HoP. EVERY party
cannot be the best. If that were pos
sible, this one would be SO. Out of the
large number that attended not one had
q fault to fnd-nOt one but went away
delighted. There were a great many
ladies out, just about equalling the num-
her of the gentlemen, SO that, there was
no embarrassment or difficulty in secur-
ing partners Dancing began early, at 8
until nearly two in the morning. The
floor was in frst-rate condition being
covered with chalked canvas as at the
Adelphi party of few days preceding.
The music made by Prof. M"rz-
bach, pianist; AL. Mills. double bass;
Dick Mills, picolo; and Bob Flanders,
vioiinist, was excellent and highly spir-
iting. The figure caller-Flanders-
made himself distinctly heard at every
word all over the large hall. Under the
influence of such music and the feeling
of unrestrained sociability which pre-
vailed, no merrier or more enjoyable
reunion could hardly be possible. The
collation. Of sandwiches, doughnuts and
strong, hot cvffee was partaken Of with
a hearty relish; and the dancers were
not embarrassed by the lunch though
all had enough. As understood before
hand, this was 40 dressy affair, and
there was very little effort made in that
direction to be snowy. The ladies ap-
peared dressed all in elegant taste, how
ever, and only in a few instances seemed
to be ''gotten up" to be jenkinized--
which couldn't be done with regard for
the preservation of ones hair. The
community is talked of enthusiast
ically everywhere-are eager for another
''hop" by the ladies as soon as possible.

Rhett who-killed- Cooley,'s Esq.
has retired from that picayune insti-
tuition, the New Orleans Picayusae, and
we suppose he will repack his carpet
bag and with his little shotgun on
his shoulder trudge back to South
Carolina. The Picdyaae is tottering
on its last legs, apparently, and the
stockholders are in q quandary1 what
to do about. 1t is no use to attempt
to augment the money receipts by
raising the price of The paper, for the
people are emphatically of the opin-
ion that their self-eonstituted immac-
ulate organ isn't worth dine. IF
the two Hundred and fifty merchants
and semi-political jobbers who now
boss the machine would only bring
themselves to an admission of the
patent fact that they have mistaken
their vocation in attempting to run
newspaper, and let the establishment
pass into the hands of competent
journalists, the old Picaystae may yet
recover some of her ancient prestige
and prosperity, but under the present
management she is swiftly nearing an
inglorioas latter end.

OUR NEW YORK LETTER.
Especial Correspondence of the CHIEF.
New York, October 26th, 1879.

Special Correspondence of the CHIEF
New York, October 26th, 1879.
DEAR CHIEF:
Louisianians may wonder why it
is the bonds and securities of their
State are SO much deprecated. The
problem can not be solved by any
of them by staying at home. They
may for instance attribute it to the
want of confidence in the present adj
ADMINISTRATION or charge it to the cor
ruptions of the Warmoth regime, but
both of these charges are delusive.
1t is through the malignant, SANDER
GUS and libellous assertions of New
Orleans correspondents of the New
York Democratic and Liberal press.
In Que of those letters published yes
teIday the old story of the Vicksburg,
Shreveport and Texas r. r. is revived,
and in that connection the writer
charges Gov. Kellogg with coniving
with Chief Justice Ludeling in de-
frauding the State out of " thousands
in bonds. The assertion is based upon
the "factn that at
"cR7TIcAL JUNcTUREn
in the affairs of the Company, Cover
nor Kellogg came to its assistance, by
Issuing bonds in favor of Ludeling,
Jno. Ray and others. He intimates
that the Governor may have some
future use" for the Chief Justice
and has not been tardy in currying
his favor. Judge Woods of the q. S
Circuit Court is also mentioned in
connection with the said road, as
having given a decision in a suit of
the bondholders of Georgia and other
States as. Ludeling, Ray and others
in Louisiana, in favor of the defen-
dants. Strange to say he does not
question the probity of Judge Woods
it is because he is a Bour-
bon. It makes deal of difference as
to
WHOSE CATTLE ARE GoRED.
The same genius says that the Leg
stature of " 1868 was devoid of talent
with the exception of Hon. Jno. Ray.
Quite complimentary to the Senator
from 0uachita, but rather rough on
Nessrs. Branghn, Ogden. Lee. MeMil-

Hon. j. Henri Bureb, the talented
State Senator from the Baton Rouge
district, and editor of the Grand Era
of that city, has returned from the
North and received a warm welcome
from his constituents. Mr.. Burch did
yeoman service as a member of the
committee of celored orators who
have been giving the people worth of

sight into Louisiana affairs, and we
are glad to know that his efforts are
not unappreciated BY the Republicans

Gov. Kellogg arrived in New Or
leans to-day Nov y with his family
and resumed the duties of his Office.
He comes back in good health. Too
much can not be said in praise of the
ability and dignity with which Lieut..
Gov. Antoine filled the position of
Governor during Mr.. Kellogg's abb
senee. Quick to see the right and
firm in adhering to it, yet kind and
courteous always, Mr.. Antoine makes
a model official one whom it is a
pleasure to have dealings with, and
with whom the destines of al State
can be safely trusted.

THE COMING ELECTION.

THE UUMlNU ELhUTlUN.
The select assemblage of gentlemen
who amused themselves last winter
BY holding daily confabs in the Odd
Fellows Hall, New Orleans, facetious-
ty styling themselves the Legislature
Of Louisiana, among other things
equally as absurd done to while away
the time, "passed a bill" providing
Cor an election to be held in this State
on the first Monday of November, at
which the people were asked to vote
for or against the calling of a conven-
ton to revise the constitution of the
State. We notice that several news
papers, of the order that effect to be-
lieye the pleasing fiction sought to be
established by Blanchard's beautiful
set of election returns, have published
the little "billn referred to within
the past few weeks, and from this we
infer that "this people," or such of
them as enter into the spirit of the
game of 'playing government" are
expected to rally on Monday next and
give their opinion upon the weighty
question propounded them by the
neutrality-suspicious..
For the sake of the. humorists who
framed this measure, it gives us
pain to say that the people of our
parish obstinately refuse to help the
roaring farce along, and we very
much fear the number who will as
semble at the polls next Monday viii
be small, exceedingly small, and that
they will not euthuse, or fight, or get
drunk, or do any other things custo-
mary and proper on election days, be-
cause if the big crowd was to do so
the Constable might put him in Jail.
But, cheer up, ye jokists! What
boots it whether even the ghost of
voter appears at the polls or not Is
not Blanchard still Registrar? and
can he not get up returns which will
be prina .facie evidence CT grand
outpouring of the people to partici-
pate in the election? His efforts in
this line heretofore should convince all
that he is fully equal to the task.
While Blanchard remains to us, the
cause of humor is safe, and our side
will always win-on paper.
/ We have detailed seventeen repor-
tiers to attend at the different polling
precincts during the counting of the
votes and will ..acquaint our seven
hundred thousand readers of the pro-
gress of the count by issuing hourly
editions until the returns are in. In
spite of this our subscription price
will remain the same: three dollars
q year in advance. Freemen! your
country callsi Now is the tine to
subscribe. The foot of the tyrant is
upon your necks! Advertising soli-
cited, terms reasonable. Rally rally!
