WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-The Secretary
of the Interior to-day received the report
OF the Commissioners appointed to eX-
anime whether the DEFICIENCIES in the con-
struction of the Union Pacific Railway,
as reported by Commission of eminent
citizens appointed by Secretary Cox,
under Act of Congress OF April 10, 1869.
have been supplied and the road com.
pleted as required by said report. The
present Commissioners examination COM
menced on the 25th day of September,
and was completed on the 9Th inst, and
they claimed to have made it Thoroughly
and in detail. The Commissioners find,
from personal examination and data
furnished by the company; that the road,
as built. is first-class railroad, fully
complying with its charter and the re-
quirements of law, and in accordance
with the instruction Of the department
furnished them. The report is signed
by all three of the Commissioners. 1t
will require the approval of the President
and the formal acceptance Of the road as
completed structure before patents will
issue for the land grant.
The Supreme Court to-day advanced
the Union Pacific Railroad six cases on
the docket and set them for argument on
the second Monday in December.
A few days since the employees in
the Patent Office got up o SUBJ
scription to purchase a silver set for
presentation to General Leggett, the re-
firing Commissioner. The matter CON-
ing to the knowledge of Assistant Secre-
tary of the Interior Cowen, he addressed
note to General Leggett requesting
him to furnish the names OF the contrib
utors. The action of the clerks in pre-
senting this service and the acceptance
Of it Is in direct violation of the law

Ever since Kendall made his direct
staten ant that the Storey county Democ-
racy were in league with Sutro, we have
believed and so charged that the asser-
ton was true. Not having been denied
by the pseudo. Democratic papers Of vir-
ginia City, their silence may be taken as
tacit confession of the truth OF the al
legged alliance. We now have further
evidence which so confirms the matter,
as to leave not the slightest doubt in our
mind. What we refer to is this. On
last Tuesday evening while addressing
the Democratic mass meeting held in
this town, John Il. Kttrell, the Demo-
cratic nominee for the Office of Attorney
General. complained that the supporters
of Sharon had violently assaulted "a re-
spected and honored citizen, Mr.. Sutro."
This expression delivered by the Demo.
cratic candidate for "fhe high and i'm.
portant Office Of Attorney General" at
