We live in a fast country, are a
progressively fast people, therefore
must we expect fast and sudden
changes even in the elements; but
these changes have not followed their
wonted routine. Instead Of rains,
frosts, snow, we have been favored
with snow, frost, rain, exactly the re-
versed order Of other seasons. The
change in the programme, however,
has been amply repaid, by an over
abundance of each kind. Over two
feet of snow in few days, then an
enlivening blast from the North
Pole playing the quick march of 80
degrees below zero, following it up
by the unprecedented jump of As de-
grees up the scale in thirty-six hours,
and GROWING all by twelve hours
rain-storm which quickly destroyed
all the beneficial effects of frost and
snow on our highways, leaving them
fit for travel neither for wheels nor
runpers. 1t would seem that some of
our hotels, following the example of
our mQuotain atmosphere, and in or
der to prevent their guests from COM
planning Of any monotony in the bill
Of fare, have exchanged the long con-
tinued hash and potatoes for pota-
toes and bash with on abundance Of
each.

Ida VALLEY.

OF this interesting part of the State, q
correspondent Of the Reese River Rere;!Ie
giyes the following information:
I aE' al2As::;,. % say that oGr rrospec: S
for a lively camp are better than at any
time since the discovery of the district.
We have been greatly disappointed by
Messrs. Taylor and Frost to whom We
look for the speedy introduction of mill
from which mine-owners and lesees
could rely on obtaining correct returns
for their ore; add to this the disappoint-
ment the shutting down of the Ida Mill
since the oath of June and you have the
cause of the dull times which have pre-
vailed for some time in this section.
The stopping of the Ida mill was in
consequence Of the failure of Messrs.
Parker, Watson il Co., who were the
owners of three-eighths of the property.
The trouble has been settled as to the
mill, which is now running under the
management of the Trustees agent over
looked by Receiver. Confidence, which
was heretofore wanting under the old
regime, is now full and complete. We
are having ore worked and getting good
returns and the mill will be kept running
to its utmost capacity.
The recently organized distrist of
Silvania, ten miles southwest of Ida,
promises to rank among the bullion pro-
ducing districts of Eastern Nevada and
some very favorable looking lodges have
been discovered within the last two
weeks about midway between this place
and Palmess..?. In short the prospects
Of Ida Valley were neyer 50 tattering
as they appear at present.
On the 10th inst. the annual election
for Mining Recorder took place, result
ing in the reelection of W. J. Brown,
on which occasion, for the first time in
the State, the elective franchise by fe-
males was exercised. Two ladies claimed
and were accorded the privilege of vot-
ing by virtue of being owners in mines.

In another part of the same paper
this greatest of American essayists
says, as if comprehending in one
sentence the Californian Independent
Press and their candidate for Sena-
torial honors: Nov this literature
has been for a considerable period
creating the taste which it addresses.
From It's bookstall intrenchments it
has invaded kitchens and fought its
way into parlors, and now consti-
tutes a large portion of the peoples
reading. Altogether, it has come to
be greater public evil than smooth
scholars and dainty critics are in
clined to believe, as it is day by day
f,rming in the public mind thoughts
which eventually promise to be
things
Tomorrow is to be the occasion
when the people of California must
make choice between this arrogant
Press Tyranny and it's Dilettante
candidate and the n,anfui spirit of
popular politics as symbolizel by |
the Republican and Democratic
parties. The success of either of |
these is better and of vastly more
vital Importance than the renewal of
its warrant of arrogance to that
would be third estate of the realm.

account Of the shooting OF one Ilistell, 4
Cornishman, on Wednesday last by 4
coIored man named Cherry. L is claim
eli by the slayer that he did the shooting
while on watch, with a loaded gun, for
barley thieves. The dead man vas shot
twice. 1t occurred in the night. histell
was suspiciously within the lines Of
Cherry's property. OF the family and
antecedents OF The parpetrator OF this
deed of violence the Record of Friday
says:
Cherry is a native OF North Carolina,
and some years ago found his way into
the Northern States, having lived in

1850: has lived at Virginia, White Pine
and other places in Nevada. He married
his present wife ten years ago, but no
offspring has resulted from their union.
Mrs. c. is native of Rhode Island. She
says her husband deeply regrets the
shooting of the old man. We may as
well say in this connection that no pre-

This is just what has been done in
the Russian advance into Central
Asia. During the reign OF Catharine
II, Of blessed, though somewhat
scandalous memory, one of the gov.
errors OF Siberia persuaded that es-
unable lady to give him all the con.
scripts OF single year instead OF
sending them into the army. He
settled them With their families in
villages, through tho Barabinskaia
steppe, and converted the whole lot
OF them into Cossacks. They made
line of forts on the southern edge
OF the sterpe, and in the course of q
dozen years or more, second line, a
hundred or more miles further south.
Whenever a new strip Of territory
was obtained from the Tartars, as
they are enormously called, a new
line of forts was built, new villages
were founded, new fields were plant
ed, and the new frontier was fringed
with settlements Of an apparently
permanent character. The Cossacks
were quite as much IN the services Of
the government when engaged IN
agriculture as when fighting in the
field; in fact, tncy were more 80, for
tie reason that the most OF the Rus
sian advances were made without
bloodshed, and the villages OF the
soldier farmers were of more conse-
quenco in the work ct conquest
than the forts where they could rally
in case CT trouble.

Russia and her Conquered
Territory.

Whatever the Russian takes he
holds, unless fortune frowns on him
in her darkest way. Step by step
he has advanced into Central ASIA
without retreating, and steppc lie has
taken and never relinquished. When
the Tar;ars marched westward under
Gengls Khan, seven hundred years
ago, they formed settlements along
the route, and planted fields of grain
at each aud every settlement Their
conquests gained in this way per-
manent character, and they made

Valley was occupied. it was nccessa-
ry to people it. Whole villages
were ordered to move from the PROV
inccs Of the trans Eaikal to the
Amoor; everything that could lie
transported was piled upon RATS and
foated down the great river. When
the destination previously selected
was reached, new village, with the
same number OF houses, the same in
haoitants, and occupying the sane
relative positions, would spring up
in place Of the old one a thousand
miles away. The government would
pay the expense ct transportation

One Of those Stupid Servant
Girls.

Krickbaum read somewhere that
Dio Lewis advised men with a ten.
dency to become bald to have holes
punched in the tops of their hats.
And SO when Krickbaum purchased
his new winter hat he had small
sheet iron plate, perforated with
holes and set in the crown. That
was on Tuesday. On Wednesday
Mrs. Krickbaum got new hired
girl, who saw the hat on chair IN
the dining room, and imagining it to
be patent collender of some new
kind. she removed it to the kitchen.
When Mrs. Krlckbaum came down
stairs at noon to sc how dinner was
getting on, she found the girl strain.

were so big and the collender so lin.

gan to hunt for his hat, while Mrs.
krickbaum sat Still! and trembled.
but when he became exasperated,
and began to pick up the chairs and
jam them down hard enough to re-
lievc his feelings, she began to cry,
and revealed the whole horrible
truth to him. It may have been done
in quicker time, but we doubt it. We
say that there may have been, in
former ages some hired girl who
packed her trunk and pelted down
stairs, and was hustled into the street
quicker than Mrs. Krickbaum's hired
girl when Krickbaum began to ex-
