EASTERN NEVADA RA1LBoADs.-A cor
respondent Of the San Francisco Chroni.
Gle, writing from Carson, has this to say
of railroad prospects in the eastern part
of our State:
The narrow gauge railroad mania is
about breaking out again and there will
probably be about as many wildcat COM
panies before this Legislature asking ia
vors as was before the last. Tie Elko
and Hamilton road is the only one that
promises success. Parties have now got
hold of the franchise who have both the
will and ability to build. They will ask
an extension of time for eight months
from the 9th of August next, but if it is
not granted the road will doubtless be
pushed through by the date named. Sal
isbury & Gilmcr, the enterprising stage
men of Utah, have taken hold of the
matter. and already they have LOO tons
of railroad iron en- route from New York,
which will arrive at Elko in fifteen days.
This will lay twenty-five miles of the
track, five miles of the road bed being
now ready to receive it. Cleveland of
White Pine yesterday gave notice in the
Senate of his intention to introduce
bill repeating the Act to grant a charter
to this company, but it is understood
here that the notice is intended to
bear " the stock in the interest of GER
tain parties not named.

ABANDONED AND SUIcIDED.-Mrs. All
Fook, Caucasian lady, residing in San
Francisco with Monaghan husband,
attempted to commit suicide by swal-
lowing copious doses Of laudanum, all
because her Celestial lord had grown
weary of her charms and abandoned
their once happy home to brouse in pas

numerous in San Francisco, Mrs. All
Fook should have taken another one to
her arms for consolation instead of taking
a dose of cold pisin-but some people

A BLAST FROM BRIGHAM.-The Nor
mon Prophet Brigham who is now So
journing at St. George lately delivered
himself of few thoughts against the
practice now so prevalent among his peo-
pie Of trading with and furnishing SUI
plies to the Gentiles. A correspondent
of the Salt Lake Tribune, writing from
st. George, makes this report:
Brigham upbraided the people for TAX
ing their lumber to Phoebe when so much
was needed at St. George, plainly telling
them they We're building up the King
dom of his Satanic Majesty. Neither
should they take their grain or pro-
visions, or produce, for they were feed
ing young devils" HE would sec them
in hell before lie would trade with them
the Gentiles-or assist in building up
gentle town.
A REPUBLIC IN SPAIN. King Amadeus

sensation was created among all classes,
and it was thought the ministry would
resign. A dispatch, received at Yer
settles from Madrid, late yesterday even
ing, made the important announcement,
that Republic would be declared as the
future government of Spain. .-

The Constitutional Convention.


In speaking Of the Importance Of making 81
lection Of delegates to the Constitutional Con-
vention, the Toledo Commercial Of Tuesday
makes the following timely and JudioiouS re-
marks:
"But two months now remain for tie selec-
tion of the men into whose hands the people will
thus place their organic law-ths highest and
most sacred trust known "a, free government
II would be impossible to overestiInate the i'm
portancs Of iudiciuus choice Of such agents.
While much depends upon the priusiples aud
policy which shall govern those called to ser
viss, the first consideration is personal fitness.
Ia choosing men 10 execute law or to lcgislate
with prescribed powers and within fixed limits
mistakes are comparatively unimpOrtaut,- hs-
cause Their action is subject 10 established rules
to be declared by the Judiciary. and to read '
review and correction by "ths choice Of new
agents. But errors made 10 the supreme law
Of the State. which can be remsdisd only with
much trouble and at great expense, are more
far-re ching and permanent in their effects.
For instance every act VI the LegislAturs is
subject 10 adjudication by the Courts, at the
instance Of any citizen or body corporate; while
the Constitution, once made, is above all ether
State authority.
From this view Of the case, the grave impor-
tance Of the choice TO be made by the people Of
Ohio in April viii be seen, and it becomes them
to see to il that no mistakes be made. The best
mer possible TO b. found should be selected for
the Convention. The question is not as to who
eants 10 90. but who should go : There will be
little difficulty in making up body worthy the
occasion AMI the great State 80 deeply concern
cd, provided hs psnlLe take the matter in hand
in time, before the piace-seekers have forsstall-
ed the popular will. First Of all, let il be set
tied. that no man seeking the place, should be
electsl. II ever again we are to see public
truths seek he men, it should be in this instance ;
but i. will not be SO, il the people remain indIf
fsrsnt to their highest interests, and permit the
ambition to control the election"

An Outrage on the People OF CoshOc-
ton County.


Under this head the Cincinnati Gazs ties spe-
Cial correspondent from Columbos furnishes
some interesting reading to the tax.pay er, in
referring TO the proceedings Of our Legislature
on Friday last.
The question OF building a 100000 court
house III CoshoctOn county was submitted to
a vote Of he people Of dat couhty last falIan
voted down almost unanimously. A few lob
byists haye attempted TO dsfest TIE will Of the
people in the matter, as will be seen by what
follows from the Gazets.
Let IL be remembered that our mis- -repre senla-
tive, Mr.. NORRIS, while he utterly repudiates a
petition from majority Of HE constituents in
his own county. with reference to allowing them
to decide by vote Of the peopIe-where they
want their seat of justice, voted to rush this bill
through the House, irregardsss Of the Coasti-
tuition, his oath, or the expressed wishes Of the
people Of Coshocton county
"a general law of Ohio gives the people Of
the different counties Of tine State voice in the
expenditure Of money for the erection of county
buildings.
Yesterday a bill was introduced in the Senate
to enable the Commissioners of Coshoelon
County 10 levy a tax Of 100000 upon the peo-
pie of that county, and expeud ii in building
new Court House, without consulting the people
at all.
Mr.. Patrick, Of Tusearawas, took the lead
for this measure, and through his motion and
| by his sxeFtions the bill was read three times
that same day, in utter contempt o. the Consti-
tuition of OHIO, and passed. The Constitution
requires every bill to be read three several
| times on three separate days and guards that
necessary aud bsnefcent rule so carefully, that
it requires a three fourths vote to suspend it,
and allows it TO be done even then only in u
tease Of urgency" When the Senator's took
tSe oath OF office, they swore that they would
never deprive the people of the benefit of this
wise rule, except in "case Of urgency" Was
there any urgency in the Coshocton County
Court House business? Aye, indeed there
was.
! 1t was necessary thus to rush II through, in
order that the people Of Coshocton County
might have no opportunity to demonstrate a
gainst measure which sought to impose upon
them = tax Of 100000 without their consent,
and thus deprive them of right conee led to
all the other people Of the State The whole
affair was shams to Mr. Patrick, and shame

To-day it was attempted to rush the measure
through the House in the same iniquitous way

In speaking Of the bill now before Congress
with reference tn increasn our navy, the Gin

"The bill to build ten sloops Of war is support
cd because the navy has not sufficient cruising
vessels to protect our commerce. 1t would be
an argument il we needed cruising squadrcns to
protectlour sommeTes. We need them about as
much as-we need a man-of-war to convoy every
merchant ship on It's voyage. The fact is, we
have much too many cruising ships aaoat now
