Poor, pitilul creature!
Come down from that chair,
For Adams and Jefferson
Both have been therv.
Can YOU not hear the voice

Like the roar of the storm,
That is calling TO you?

You blackened for gold.
Look round on the portraits
That hang on the wall.
Is there nothing can move you
To sink from the hall

A RASH PROMISE.

Everybody who has been In Wash
ington since 1852, and nearly every
one who hasn't, has heard Of Doctor
Mary Walker, Major, ETC.. and doubt
less many Of our readers have seen the
redoubtable apostle Of the BIooner
school Of dress promenading up and
down Pennsylvania Avenue, attired
In hat, short silk tunic, and black silk
breeches. This Mary Walker Is a de-
voted advocate and champion of wo-
mans rights, aid one of the most in
veterate bores whom the heads OF De-
partments have to contend with. With
few qualifications and less modesty,
she has long been the bane OF Cabinet
officers, Congressman and subordinate
officials. From a letter written from
Washington to the St. Louis Globe, 1t
appears that she has at last succeeded
in obtaining an official position. The
correspondent says:
Secretary Richardson Is disagreeably
forced. by a rash promise made some
four years ago, to DR.. Mary Walker.
the lady In coat and trousers, that II
ever he rose to the then improbable
station Of Secretary Of the Treasury,
he would give her an appointment In
Alaska. The lady doctor now de-
mands the appointment, and the Sec

flee aud the means of sending her.
His predecessor offered her Il place
among the lady-c,erks here If she
would abjure her 7 .ntaloons, but she
declined.

WON'T woex WELL.

By the rules recently adopted by the
Civil Service Commission. Nevada is
in the 4th District for examination
purposes. This District comprises the
States of Illinois. ). ssouri. Minnesota,
Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Nevada, CAL
ifornia and Oregon ; also, all the Ter
riiories except New Mexico and the
District OF Columbia. The place of
examination Is fixed ut st. Louis. 1t
will be observed that, as We have be-
fore remarked, this plan, as applied to
appointments for the Pacific coast,
tails to meet the case or 10 correct the
evil which rendered these subdivisions
necessary. i.e., the cost Of t%ransporta-
ton to Washington. 1t costs but ten
or fifteen dollars more In greenbacks
to 60 to WashirS ton than to st. Louis,
and any m going East would much
rather visit the former than the latter
city. What should be done Ia either
to make each State n separate District
or comprise the States Of tile Pacific
Slope into one District, with headquar-
tiers at Sacramento or San Francisco.
As the arrangement Il now made, ma
ny persons who are DESTROYS of obtain
Ing appointments will find themselves
unable to spend three hundred dollars
In gold coin to visit st. Louis for the
purpose Of examination, aud, In real
ity, in Nevada there are but one or
two Government positions worth the
trouble and expense. This arrange
ment will necessarily result in filling
civil positions under the Government,
In Nevada. with citizens of States con-
tiguous to St. Louis. The Idea Of
uniting Illinois and Oregon in the
same District, with st. Louis rs a TO-
cal point, has a rither ludicrous aspect.

On n small street In the rear of
Meadow Valley, nearly opposite Cedar
street. has been struck Il mine OF
lumber, which Is Of immense extent.
That the reader may comprehend
what lumber" is, we append Web
ster's definition IAN ochreous ore
of iron, of n brown or blackish brown
color, consisting Of oxide OF iron, oxide
OF manganese, silica. alumina and
water. 1t Is often used as n pigment.
aud sometimes In coloring porcelain"
Immense quantities OF this ore are
being extracted, and that, too. with
out a great outlay Of labor. We saw
yesterday a great amount. which had
been drawn up with a common wind
lass and placed In bags for future use.
The mine Is owned by Frank Nolan
and others. The ore Is to be pulver-
lied, mixed with OF! and used as paint.
The paint of this manufacture Is to be
used in painting the Raymond 4 Ely
hoisting works. A friend who Is y
practical painter, Is satisfied that this
discovery OF lumber will prove a source
of great wealth. BY mixing white
lead with 1t, lighter colors may be OBJ
tanned. At present all the paint need
ed for home use can be procured from
this mine. and with railroad commu-
nication, by which It may be trans
ported cheaply, it can be shipped to
other points with profit. The supply
Is app arently inexhaus.ible.

trial In the Raymond Il Ely W.. Her
