III. LAFEVRE.

No tears for thee, though light bafrem
us gone-HEMANs.
No tears for theer' the young and brave
Our earthly hope, our sure bulwark
Ia time Of tempest What no tears,
To find our home and hearts so dark
TO find the glorious strength aid graca
Of that proud form wiped cut for aye.
To find the empty chair and couch
And chamber yoiceless, day BY day.
No Gears m Oh God III wept Of old
When Lazarus lay n swathing handgs
II wcpt, we know how sorrowing tears
Dropped on Thy consscrated hands;
And 50 We weep-sThe light within
Is darkness ~all the mocking bloUsa
OF Summer flowers but bitter dust
To US, who gather around his tomb
All mother Of that noble son,
All sisters Of the happy dead,
Why weep for one, who exiled here
Back 10 his native bourne hath fed
The sun may blackness shed for you
And bitter be the breath Of flowers,
But ali the life that lics beyond
Is worth-well worth the pain Of Ours

IEEATRE.-The presentation OF The
Stranger" last evening, merited a la~-.r
audience than was in attendance. 1t
was, on the par; of Mrs Bowers and IL.
McColloc,, one of TIE finest, most pa
thetic and powerful exhibitions ever
given before a Carson audience. The
meeting of. and recognition by, The
Stranger and Mrs Halter" was the
most Sudden, dramatic. and sharply de-
fined imaginable. And the anal inter
view was SO intensely affecting az to sur
Prise even those who thought they had q
'ull knowledge of the aoilitv of Ms.
Bowers. Mr. McCollon proved his
rank as first class Miss Adams as the
Countess. Mr. TboTne as Baron Steir-
fort, and Nj. Billings as solomon sus-
tanned those characters admirably. To-
night, Benefit Of Mis-. Bowers, when she
viii appear in the beautiful PLAY of
"Dlapa; or. Loves Masquerade. re-
presenting the character of Donna Diana.
Mr.. McCollom as Prince Caesar. We
cannot expect soon again to see in Car
son so splendid an actress as Mrs. Bow
ers, nor 50 admirable company alto
gether. Our people ought TO show their
appreciation of this fact
IMPORTANT IF TRUE.-A resident of
Carson City is in receipt of letter
from San Francisco, of late date, in
which the writer states that at a
spiritual seance IN that city. few
evenings since, the question was !
asked -" Is Henry Ward Beecher !
guilty of the charges preferred against |
him by Theodore Tilton?" The table !
tipped three times, indicating an affir.
native answer. The next question
asked was" Is Elizabeth Tilton also |
guilty." At this the table Jumped |
violently and upset. the drawers Of it
coming out. This is the purport of
tie letter, the envelop being marked |
In addition to the address" i'm
portant.' We suppose this settles The
question of Beecher's guilt, and so the
Jury ID this case might as well be dis
missed at once.
WooD.-The wood-drive on the Car
son river is now going on successfully.
One drive of about 1000 cords, under
the management of Hon. J. w. Haines,
Of Douglas county, was taken out at EN-
pire more than week ago. and now the
wood of other parties is arriving daily in
considerable quantities. From six to
seven hundred cords of wood is now
