Tho Absorbing Topic.
EDITOR News: The all absorbing
business Of to-day has been Jones.
Both Houses met at the usual hours.
but transacted but little business, all
the members being on the tip-toe of
expectation for the arrival of the hour
on which would take place the grand
denoument OF a drama, which, like the
plays Of Chinese theatres, has taken a
year for its enactment. At II O'Clock
to-day, both Houses Of the Nevada
Legislature met in joint convention in
the Assembly Chamber, for the pur-
pose Of witnessing the ratification of
the election of John p, Jones as Unit
ell States Senator for the ensuing term
of six years from the fourth day Of
March next. A large number of ladies
were on the floor, aud the lobby aud
galleries we're crowded with people,
eager to witness the grand finale OF
the circus. At 10 minutes past II, the
convention was called to order BY the
President OF the Senate, and the Clerk
of the House called the respective
rolls OF those bodies, all the members
being present but Mr.. Phelan absent
on leave), and then proceeded to read
from the journals that part of the pro-
ceedings had yesterday, which related
to the election Of United States Sell
ator, ut the conclusion of which, Lieut..
Gov. Denver arose and formally dc.
clared John P. Jones as the choice OF
the Joint convention. for United States
Senator. No sooner had Gov. Denver
concluded than the guns on the plaza
pealed forth, aud the friends OF Mr..
Jones sent up a deafening shout OF tn.
multuous applause. l never could see
| the use of these hoorays aud stamping
/; and clapping of hands. Upon word !
they give me an internal headache. AS
soon as the din had subsidized, Mr.. Lock-
wood moved the appointment OF a
committee to wait on Mr.. Jones, noti-
~ him Of his election, and request his
presence before the convention. The
Chair appointed rs such committee:
Senators Lockwood and Mccoy, and
Assemblymen Morrison, Sessions and
Crawford, who soon returned, accom-
panied by the Senator elect. MIR.
Jones stepped forward to the speakers
stand and was introduced by Lieut..
Gov. Denver. Bowling to the audience

Lecture.

He Is q man of fine presence, a good
e%locutionist, with the fault, however,
of occasionally biting q word off short.
His gesture Is graceful, natural, and
apparently unaffected, and his deliv-
ery clear aud distinct. He a~pologized
for reading his speech from manu-
script. on the ground that he knew it
would 90 into print and he wanted to
stand fairly upon the record, and that
no maliciously garbled reports should
appear to his disadvantage. He Is
now on the record !! And If lie redeems

to reform all existing abuses "at one
fell swoop," 1t seems to me has most
"too many irons in the fire."

lies with the operator or printer, not
with me.
There Is one rather ludicrous mis-
take which occurs In the report as
printed. 1t is in the paragraph where
MIR. Jones refers to n venal and de-
PRAYED press, and which reads In the
report" Is a sore upon the body poll
tic, which sooner or later will have to
b. removed by being scalped." If my
recollection serves me. right, the Ian
guage Of Mr.. Jones was, "Iemoved by
the scalpel." A criticism on the lee
ture I leave to ADLER critics than my
self, but I cannot refrain from repeat
ing a remark-rather q cruel one 1t Is
trHe-which l heard q gentleman make
use Of in this connection. Said he,

Jones and Jones' friends have been

their troubles with u cup OF "cold

In Doncaster churchyard is this couplet:
+" Here lies Brothers by msfortin scrounded,
One died Of his wounds and the other wa,
drownded."
The following lines are over the remains OF
Robert Trollop, architect of the Exchange
and Town Hall, New Castle, England
Here lies Robert Trollop,
Who made yon stone roll up,
When death took his soul up,
His body filed this hole up"
In OXtordshire the following lines appear
ed on head-stonc:
Here lies the body of John Eldrcd
At least he will be here when he is dead,
But now ut this time he is alive,
The fourteenth of August, sixty five"
In the church of ST. Johns, in the old city
of Chester, the following lines are commem-
orative of one Sarah Booth:
"A good wife, n tender mother,
II were hard to find out such another;
In love she lived, in peace she died,
And when God called her he was not denied "
Over the grave of man and wife whose
married life had been somewhat contentious,
Is the following expressive and comprehen.
sive line:
Their warfare is accomplished"
From "a tombstone near London the follow
ing is taken:
Here lies the body of Nancy II. Gwyn,
Who was SO very pure within
That she burst her outer shell of sin,
And Matched herself acherubm."
As an illustration of the exigencies of
rhyme, an English writer cites the following
epitaph from tombstone in Manchester:
Here lies alas morc's the pity,
All that remains of Nicholas Ncwcity'
n. Bills name was Newtown.
But the English epitaphs more than find
their match in American graveyards. In u
church in Hartford Conn, is the following !:
Here lies two babies, so dead as nits;
De Lord he Kilt them nit his ague fits.
When dcy was too good to live nit me,
He took dem up to live init He,
So he did"

PUT AGREEMENTS IN WRITING.-llOw
many Misunderstanding arise from the loose
way in which business matters are talked
over, and then when each party puts his own
construction on the conversation, the matter
is dismissed by each, with the words: "All
right" "All right" Frequently it turns out
all nr0ng, and becomes a question for law
yers and the courts. More than three.fourths
of the litigation of the country would be
saved if people would put down their agree.
ments in writing, and sign their names TO it.
Each word in our language has its peculiar
meaning, and memory may, by tie change OF
its position in sentence, convey an entirely
different idea from that intended When
once reduced to writing ideas are fixed and
expensive lawsuits are avoided.
