THE LOTTERY QUESTION.

The Virginia Chronicle thinks the Act
Of March last does not and cannot oper-
ate to prohibit the drawing of the Nevada
State Lottery, and bases its opinion upon
that provision OF the Federal Constitu-
ton which declares that no ex post fact o
law shall be passed. Whether the Chron-
icle be right or wrong, we prefer to be on
the safe side, and shall have nothing to
do with the concern, at least until its
legal status is determined by the Su-
preme Court. The Chronicle says:
By reason of the State pledging its
faith to the lottery scheme, people every
where were induced to purchase the
tickets for the drawing with the full as
surance that they should at least have
chance to realize a quid pro quo. In
plain terms, those purchasers acquired
vested rights in the concern, and it is q
well established principle of law that
vested right honestly acquired cannot be
invalidated by any Legislative enact
nents, for the simple reason that such
enactments would be ex post facto, and
would utterly ruin every business inter-
est in the country. Taking this view of
the case, We are entirely satisfied that
the Nevada Lottery and its aiders and
abetters are exempt from the penalties
imposed by the anti.lottery Act of the
last session.

News from Japan.
The Diplomatic differences between
the Government of Japan and certain

These are the ENJOYS of England, France

aloof from all the conferences. The
Japanese meet the claim with the state
ment that $4,000, 900 would not be fair

NEVADA STATE ITEMS,

PALIsADE AND EUREKA RAILROAD
are in receipt Of a communication from
one of the engineers employed on the
narrow-gauge at Palisade, from which we
collate the following items: Although
but short time has elapsed since tho
actual commencement Of work Oh this
important enterprise, great progress has
been made, and untiring energy is being
displayed by the projectors. Already ten
miles of grading has been done, the
bridge over the Humboldt completed,
aud the road ready for the rails, which
are rapidly arriving. One locomotive is
ON the spot ready for service, and the
construction train will, in two weeks at
most, be at work About 275 men are in
the company's employ, and the usual
movable railroad town forms one OF the
features of the enterprise. All the fore
going is cheering in the extreme, making
hitherto unbelievers in the successful
prosecution of the scheme acknowledge
the evident fact of the existence of rail-
road. 1t is confidently predicted that 20
miles of the road will be completed and
in running order by the middle OF Feb
ruary next, when the stages of Messrs.
Woodruff & Ennor will connect and carry
passengers on to their various destina-
tions. We are informed that the veteran
fast freight man, W. L. Pritchard, has
purchased an interest, and will contract
to carry all heavy freight from the ter
minus of the road to points all over East
ern Nevada. Taken altogether, the out
look is exceedingly cheering to all living
in this vicinity. and we have much rea-
son to be thankful for the forward condi-
ton of affairs.-[White Pine News, 18th.
