notion. Saturday morning, to go to the
prize fight, and. accordingly, paid

nasty Carson river water, strongly im-
pregnated with chemicals from the
mills above, and being tired and DIS
couraged. he went oil and lay down
under a tree, thinking to get up just
in time to see the fight. He woke up
after dark TO find not a horse or
or ever a ring to be seen, but
strongly impressed with the mot at all
agreeable reality that there we're
twelve long miles lying stretched out,
over a rough road. between him anu
Virginia. He came ploddins along
into Virginia about eleven O'Clock

MAxsARDED.-YeSterday morning n
man living in the neishborhood Of the
Piu,e House, lower Gold Hill, put a
terrible head on his wife. As result
of the beating. 4 bump was raised on
her forehead nearly as large as a men ;
egg. The Romans had an eSceiieht
law in regard to the beating business,
the impoTt of which was, that II Il
slave was struck By his master he was
manumitred from that moment. Inc
same rule ought to apply In cases oil
wife beating. IL seems almost inrX-

for n lifetime, and whom he has sworn
to honor cherish and respect.
