AN OUTSIDE OPINION.


A party who signs himself M" but

may get into print, writes to the vir-
ginia Esiepriss taking umbrags at and
our assertion that Carson is not
veil drained. yet easily drainabls. We
desire no controversy upon a subject SO
paipably and odoriferously apparent as
the truth Of our assertion 'that fstid
sewage pools are abundant in the State
Capital. We Z o. the opinion-and
In this ws are joined by thrss-fourths Of
tho intelligent citizens Of that town
that to the filthy condition and imPer-
feet drainage Of Carson City the cpl
dsmic recently prevailing therein owed
much Of its malignity. Carson is in =
delightful location. Ii Is favored by
nature more than any town in Nevada.
II IL also true that ii has been favored
BY the State in like proportion, hut
when We suggest that it might be beau
tiful, clsansed and rendered still more
pleasing to visitors as well a. TO its resi-
dents, soma trough old citizen like
IN" stands up and says there u no
need Of improvemsut--no room for Il.
The reason IL plain. N Is simply be-
cause the improvements suggested are
to be paid for by the town-not the
State. II q project to drain and grade
and light the streets Of the State Capt.
tai through m appropriation from the
State Treasury had bsen made. neither
IN" nor the few others whom we have
In mind would have opposed ii. On
tho contrary. their Voices would
have been heard In behalf Of such a
generous action and the lobbies OF the
Capitol building would have boon en-
numbered by their presence. But We
did not intend to go over this subject
again. In reply to the somewhat funny
communication Of NJ We publish the
opinion Of a resident Of Eastern Ne
vada-now at tho State CaPital-whieh
we find in the Belmont Courier OF the
9Th inst:
You, Mr.. Editor. have lived in Car

after thor own fashion, but ] believe
they should take como measures to pro-
tect the health Of strangers and visitors.
Owing to tho lack Of sewerage many
places on the main street diffuse an
odor like the balm Of a thousand decay
ed eggs; many Of the streets contain
pools OF stagnant water which emit in
dsscribable smells, and n stranger wan
dering through the town ut night, would
form the impression that all the citizens
keep pet skunks. which they let loose
on the street for airing. | suppose II

sewerage, and until such action is taken
Carson must remain an unhealthy place,
and scarlet fever and other nlalarious
diseases must continue to prevail.

The martin belongs TO the swallow tribe,
and is neat, harmless and popular bird,
and usually takes up its summer residence
about the habitation Of men. and safely seeks
their protection aud cultivates their friend
ship. There are but very few in civilized
or savage life 50 rude as to injure the mar
tin. These birds marry or mate in pairs,
and seem to be much attached TO their chosen
mates. They are very courageous and dar-
ing, aud when attacked by other birds will
fight desperately in defense Of their kind.
Many curious anecdotes are told Of their col
lisions with wrens, their mortal enemy.
The barn swallow is smaller than the mar.
tin, and yet has many Of its psculiaritiOs
Both are very active birds and Ay with
wonderful swiFtnsss.
The swallows are cosmopolite, or citizens
Of the world. In this country they migrate
annually before the cold weather comes on
in the autumn, and return again in the
spring. ...
The swallow is pattern of Innocence and
industry. He takes his food in the cir aud
is on wing the most of the time during day
light ''.' 90
We have given as reason why birds mi
CRATE from one country TO another that they
seek warm climate. In the case Of the
swallow, at least, there seems to be another
reason. The insects upon which they subsist
disappear upon the approach of cold weather.
Hence, if they remain 10 this climate, they
must starve. $780, 1e'iaf
We have al noticed, doubtless, that swal
lows sometimes fly near the ground, and at
other times high in the air, and when they
fly low, We have predicted = storm which
almost always has come. i'
Now is there any reason for this, and can
the connection between the two facts, that
the swallow flies low and storm follows,
be explained We call attention to the fol.
lowing To produce a storm the temperature
Of the air is changing from cold to warmer
Hence the air becomes lighter and more
rare. Insects seek an atmosphere Of given
density, and when the air in the higher
regions become too rare for their convenience
they seek denser stratum nearer the ground.
And hence the swallows which are after thess
insects, must fly low to find them. 90.
How beautiful is the allusion Of the
psalmist to this interesting bird: "Yea, the
sparrow hath found an house, and the swal
low a nest for herself, where she may Law
her young, even thine affairs, o Lord OIL
of hosts, my king and my God"

Webster pillow which may be seen At the agri.
cultural college at Hanover, N. II.
The early spartans doubtiss possessed
knowledge Of draining. as the site Of their
city was surrounded by swumpa ana marshes,
which must have been drained before the
city could have been habitable. The art Of
farming gradually advanced in Greece until,
in the days Of her glory, IL was said TO have
attained high degree Of perfecsiOn. The
Greeks had 6ue breeds Of cattle, horses,
sheep aud swine. Their implements Of hus.
bandry we're constructed upon the same
principle as those Of modern times. They
imported largely. from foreign countries
sheep, swine and poultry, to improve their
stock. The Greek farmers understood the
use and value Of manufcs, and composted
with skill, saving the materials Of the COM
post with care. They understood the inn
pOrtanCe Of thorough tillage; they pIowed
three times with mules and oxen, and some
times SUBSIDIZED, and often mixed different
soils, such as sand and clay. They cult.
waited the apple, pear, cherry, plum, ounce,
peach, nectarine, aud also 6gs, lemons, and
many other fruits suited to the climate.
Among the Greek writers upOu agricul-
ture, Xenophon was the most distinguished.
Although the Greeks attained to high
degree of perfection in tilling the soil, their
country was not so well fitted for tilage as
that Of the Romans, ner did tho Greeks have
50 much pride in this department Of indus.
