SILVER CITY, Sept. 4th.

SILVER CITY, Sept. 4th.
MIR. EDIToR-I would like to call
the attention of the Opera House
management, through the columns
of your widely-spread journal, to a
practice not in keeping with the
customs of properly conducted
theatres. On Thursday night last,
in company with some more Silver
ties, / went to see the great Murphy,
and enjoyed the performance very
much, which was only marred by
the presence OF few SoulleSS in
dividuals who persisted in contin-
ually gaping and putting away at
villainous cigars, the odor from
which was sufficient to Danish the
appetites of an audience-not neces-
sarily composed of the elite.
1t is to be hoped Mr.. Piper-who
is evidently gentleman of refined
tastes, and an excellent caterer
will put a stop to the offensive prac-
tice lin theatre) of smoking, which
would not be tolerated for moment
in San Francisco or Eastern
temple of the drama.
BY giving place to the above in
your valuable paper, you will con-
fer favor on many play goers, and
more especially on your humble
servant. TYPO.

inform us that Goldsmith Maid, on
Thursday, at Mystic Park, Boston,
trotted mile in 2:l4. This is within
3lH seconds of the fastest running
time ever made, and is wonderful
almost beyond comprehension. 1t
is at the rate of almost twenty-seven
miles per hour, or half as fast again
as passenger trains run on the Gen.
trail Pacific. The first half mile was
made in l:06A, and the last halt was
completed without a skip or a
quaver.

DAYTON, sept, Wn, A.D, iotf.
CARSON MINT.-On Friday morn
ing. in company with a gentleman
friend, comfortably seated behind a
spanking team, we sailed away for a
visit to Carson City. A pleasant
drive of five miles brought us to that
popular place of resort, the Mound
House; a short stay was necessary
to refresh our horses, and at the
same time to inquire the news of the
day, how politics were running, etc.
Seating ourselves again we We're
soon at the DEVILS Gate Toulouse,
where we found friend Calvert ready
to grasp our-half dollar. The road
being very fine we soon arrived in
Empire, where on every hand was
piled wood: in the river, there was
no end to the wood; in the sloughs
adjacent there was wood in fact,
wherever the eye rested there was to
be seen immense quantities of cord
wood. Many thousands Of cords
will be taken out OF the Carson river
at Empire City. Carson City looms
up in the distance; church spires,
the Capitol dome, the chimney over
the Mint, and other edifices pointed
skyward-evid licences of the handi-
work of the thrifty citizens of that
beautiful city. We alight at the
commodious stables of DR.. Benton,
on Main street, and soon find our
selves registering at the Ormsby
House. After partaking of a hearty
lunch at Frisbie's, we direct our
course to the Mint, bent on sight
seeing. Through the kindness of
Mr.. Geo. w. Bryant, Meter and Re
finer, we are shown through the va
rious departments, and had the
pleasure of meeting the various heads
of departments in the Mint. At an
other time we may have more to say
concerning this establishment, but
space forbids US at this time. After
a protracted stay at the Mint, in
company with W. H. Stevens, Esq,
we visited Judge Waltz, Register of
the Land Office, the Tribune office,
the Appeal office, the railroad offices,
and several other places of moment,
and viewed the Capitol, but did not
venture in. Having an hours time
we concluded to call upon an old
acquaintance, Col. P. C. Hyman,
Warden of the State Prison, OF whom
we speak at length III another
place. After our return from
the Prison, we drove leisurely through
the avenues, and Toasted our eyes
upon the beautiful shade trees lining
the streets; viewed the handsome
residences and green lawns, and
gardens filled with fruit trees, flow
,ers, etc., etc., for fully an hour.
The streets of the Capital city are
truly lovely, clean and regular, a
great contrast to some towns in the
State we might mention. Carson
City is truly an oasis in the great
valley of Carson, and we were glad
to note the evidence of thrift on
every hand. Quite number of
brick buildings are in course of
erection, and large, roomy dwellings
are going up on every side. A few
years and this will be one of the
handsomest cities OF the West. Her
people are all alive to the political
iSsuas of the day Tt IL MT difficult
