As SOMETHING bearing upon the inter
ests of the railway which keeps Carson
connected With the outside world, We
give the following, which We clip from
the Virginia Chronicle, for what /: Is
worth: The people Of this section Of
the State have taken lively interest IN
various rumors in circulation relative to
railroad sales and purchases, to be or not
to be, consummated in l. short time.
These rumors are to the effect that Mr..
William Sharon will purchase the inter-
est of General C. p. Huntington in the
Central Pacific Railroad. 1t is also re-
ported that negotiations are on foot in
yolving transfer of the Virginia and
Truckee Railroad. We understand that n
meeting was held on Thursday evening
at the residence of Mr.. Sharon. involv-
ing these negotiations. and that among
the gentlemen present were Governor
Leland Stanford, General c. P. Hunt
inston, Major Mark Hopkins, ;. t. Gage,
William Carr, Senator Sargent and Con-
gresham Page 1t is reported that
either the Y. & T. r. r. will pass into
the hands Of the e. p. L. r., or that o
controlling interest in the Central Paci-
tic will be in the hands of Mr.. Sharon
and the Bank Of California. within the
next three days. We give these rumors
for what they are worth, and the citizers
Of Storey county ere directly interested
in the result OF these negotiations

affected. to say nothing OF freiShts. etc.
The general feeling expressed here. Is

WE THINK we shall vaca.e our present
premises. At any rate it is high time we
we're doing SO when we are the subject
of such an invasion as came upon rs
yesterday. A Chinaman came lumber
ing into our Sanctum with dilapidrted
old tea pot in his hand and request in
his mouth that we proceed to mend
that utensil. He took us for tinker
He mistook our den for a place where
they dispense soft-solder. We banished
him to Rails and locked the door, One
more break like that and there will be n
dead Chinaman.

PREACHING IN TIE CATHOLIC CHURCH.
By pernsing our advertising columns
the reader will see that the Rev. Father
Bouchard. S. j., of San Francisco. Will
celebrate Mass and preach in the Cath
Ole Church, in this city. for eight days.
The well known reputation of the Rev.
Father as missionary preacher is quite
sufficient, we think, to secure for him
the atten lance of the good people Of
Carson City. An efficient choir will be
present at the IL o'clock Mass. All are
invited to attend.

Drug Market.

Yearly Rerie,o Of the Enorriue Drug Market.
The drug trade for the past year we think
compares favorably with the preceding years.
The stringency of the money market which has
prevailed has of course been felt in the drug
trade as in all others, and tended to decided
decrease in business for the first FIVE or six
months, but with the prospect and realization of
bountiful crops the trade has steadily increased
during the last half of the year, and leaves
1872 with better promises than it entered it
twelve months.ago Prices on most leading ar
ticles have been very firm, and have had ten
dency to advance. This was caused, at least in
part, by the exceedingly low prices which had
been reached in the previous year, and manu-
facturers were brought to the point, whether
they should suspend operations or advance
prices. In some cases the advance was brought
about by monopolies; az, for instance con-
centrated I've, which advanced 50 65 in one
day, in September, and has maintained the high
price then reached. Since, glass, lead, putty
and oils have been very firm, especially during
the latter part of the year. Chemicals have as
usual fuctuated considerably, but have as a
rule advanced. Some goods, such as gum
camphor, have declined, owing to reduction of
duty. Our merchants are feeling encouraged
by the fattering prospects Of the year now
opening, and are confidently expecting -four
ishing trade for 1873.

Accident to Judge Nicholson.

Judge Nicholson, with that promptness
and energy that has always characterized
the man, was in his chair yesterday in
good health, dispatching business as usual.
Immediately after the adjournment of
court for the day, he put on his overcoat
and was defending the stone steps within
the building leading from the first floor,
when his foot caught causing him to fall a
distance of about eight feet to stone floor.
He fell OH his side and leg, most of the
burden of the fall coming with full force
upon the thigh of the leg. His thigh bone
received fracture which caused intense
suffering. Drs. Briggs and Eve were sum-
moned at once, and every comfort and aid
was administered. Judge Nicholson was
removed in as easy manner as possible in
carriage to the Nicholson House, where
the hurt was cared for with the best posi-
BILE surgical skill.
The fracture is simple one, and, with
no misfortune the leg may be expected to
return TO nearly if not all its original
strength in due course of time. 1t must
necessarily be good while, though, before
the esteemed Judge will be able to resume
his seat on the bench, and we suppose that
a commission for pro tenn. substitute will
be issued 10y the Governor in a short while.

A Big Thing on Ice.

Bill Kelly, composition, who recently
left Omaha for Sioux City, returned yes
terday, in company with John Henry,
another compositor, the two boys having
skated some of the distance from Sioux
City down the Missouri river. They left
that place Sunday morning about half
past 6 O'Clock, and skated all day, laying
up over night at section house of the
Sioux City and Pacific Railroad. Next
morning they resumed their trip at day
light, arriving at Missouri Valley juno
ton about O'clock Monday afternoon. a
distance, by the river of about 200 miles
from the starting point. During their
travels Kelly froze both ears, his cheek, OF
which he has plenty, and one heel; while
Henry escaped with two frozen ears. This
is probably one of the most remarkable
and perilOus skating feats ever undertaken
in this country. The boys are to-day
sticking type in the Bee Office, and it will
probably be some time before they under.
take another similar spin on the ice.-On,-

A Praiseworthy Act.

Some months ago the CHRONICLE made
mention of an unfortunate man by the
name of Martin Tierney, who is of unsound
mind, and seemed to be without home,
friends or means of support, and recon-
mended that he be taken care of by the
authorities. We are glad that, although
we failed to warm the heart of the munich
pal authorities in his behalf, he found a
friend in the person of Mr.. Ignaz FAM.
Mr.. FAM has given him his meals regu-
larly for the last few months, and also a
bed, as soon as the poor man could be in
duced to accept of one. On last Saturday,
to fill the cup of kindness, he had him
shaved, his hair trimmed and gave
him an entire new suit of clothes, includ-
ing underwear. Turner presented quite a
neat appearance, and said he felt better
than he had ever felt for the last three
years. After being dressed, he made his
appearance at Mr.. Fanz's residence, and
thanking him fer the kindness, devoutly
prayed Gods blessing upon the family,
which prayer will undoubtedly be heard
and answered by Him who inspired the
passage: HE that giveth to the poor,
Iendeth unto the Lord"

Two Impor tant Memorials.

The Board of Trade at its recent meet
ing, in this city, acted upon and adopted
two important memoir ais presented by our
townsman, G. w. Charlton-One on the
subject of popular education and the other
on immigration. These memorials are to
be laid before our Legislature and will, no
doubt, meet with that C nsideration which
their importance demands.
We most heartily commend our Board
of Trade for its timely action upon this
vital question. A more important step
could not have been taken by that honora-
BILE body. The two issues of the day, are
Immigration and Popular Education.
Take hold of these and press them for
ward, and there can be no equlvOcal
grounds occupied by Tennessee, nor can
she fail to realize compensatory results.
We must educate our people ana open the
way for population, capital and labor. This
is The only way to advance to greatness
andt prosperity. We need to-day, half
million or more of enterprising people.
Nor are we particular where they come
from. d r5fi5f 81
The Legislature, we hope, will meet the
Just demands and expectations of the peo-
pie on both of these questions. Give us a
good school law, and make judicious APP
preparation to furnish facts with regard to
our advantages and resources, and to sus-
tain our commissioners of immigration.
