Under the circumstances and not
withstanding the scarcity Of money,
the friends of the orphans never showed
themselves more liberal than on this
occasion. The ladies surpassed them
selves in erecting their tables and
beautifying them with costly mer-
cnandise, and the patronage of the
gentlemen is evident from the above
receipts.

The bill introduced by Assembly.
man Hogan, constructing railroad
from Dayton through Silver City to
the State line on the Central Pacific,
has been read twice and referred to
| the Committee on Railroads, of which
j. p. Smith of Storey is Chairman.
The bill will certainly be reported
upon tavorably, and pass without
opposition. The great necessity of
such road is felt by the people
throughout this section, and as the
members generally are aware of its
actual necessity, no log rolling will
be necessary to get the bill through.
In my next | will incorporate a brief
synopsis of the bill for the general

Wednesday, which motion was, af-
ter considerable debate, adopted.

Specie Payments. and French
Example.

1t seems to have escaped general
notice in this country, that specie
payments have actually been re.
sumed in France. No public no.
tice was given of resumption, and
even now the experiment may be
honorably abandoned If it proves
to have been entered upon prema,
turely. Upon the 31st of Decem.
Der last, the circulation of the
Bank of France, outstanding,
amounted to ?, 100000 francs,
and the specie reserve to nearly
l, 1926, 10000 francs, or ffty-two
per cent. The contraction in a
year was 2S5, 100000 francs, or say
S57 900, 900, and the reserve has
augmented by 5SG.OOO,0OO francs,
or say S116,000,O00.
Some time ago orders were given
that disbursements by Government
officers should be made in gold, if
any should be on hand. The Bank
of France meantime has been
creating a scarcity of small notes,
by Withdrawing all the twenty
franc notes it could control, and
substituting those of larger denom-
nations. The first step in the
experiment has been taken. The
Bank will hereafter issue gold for
all twenty-franc notes, and the
Government is to assist in forcing
the substitution. As the holders
will not be unwilling to receive the
gold, the result will be that in
very short time three hundred
million francs in gold will be
added to what is already circulating
or boarded
The theory of the Bank seems to
be, that if the time for specie pay
ments has come, this gold will i'm
mediately appear in circulation.
Should this be SO, there will be
but a small drain upon the bank,
and that only temporary. The
gold will be brought back to the
bank, and the offer to redeem all
notes can be safely made. If, how
ever, the gold should be boarded,
it will be proved that the resump-
ton cannot be continued without
danger Of drain Of the specie
reserve. In any event, the issue of |
so much gold will be a step toward !
final and permanent resumption.
Practically, the days OF forced |
currency are over. The Bank of
France pays out gold to its custom
ers, in the way Of business, for all |
reasonable amounts, and only re-
fuse when it is suspected that the
demand is for speculative purposes. /
The example Of France is highly /
instructive, but our Government .
exhibits a decided Discrimination

Marysville was flooded for two or

chants are ruined; hundreds of
families are in want of the neces-
saries of life, and aid is called for.

GAMBLING LAW.

GAM hLLNG LAW.
Assemblyman Hubbard of Es-
meraIda has given notice that he
will this week Introduce bill re
pealing the licensing of gambling.
Three bills have been introduced
in the Assembly making the playing
of three-card-monte, =" strap" and
other kindred confidence games, a
felony.
y bill introduced by Senator Va
rian of humboldt, suppressing such
games as above mentioned, passed
the Senate Saturday by an almost
unanimous vote. The bill makes
the playing of such games as three
card monte, " strap etc., a felony,
punishable by Imprisonment in the
peuitentiary of from one to five
years, and a fine of from $1,000 to
$1,000. 4 he bill, before its passage,
was so amended as to make guilty of
felony and subject to the same
punishment, the owners of houses
and controllers of railroads who
permit the playing of such games
thereon or within. This is Justly
severe on those trough" gamblers,
and will compel them to seek some
honest employment, or go further
West-or East. The bill will surely
pass the Assembly and become a
law, as the feeling seems to be unan-
imous against this species of high
waymen

GARrERs.-Some hungry-eyed man
talks thus wickedly:
But better, and above all, is that
article of dress which, if my boyish
lips had so much as pronounced, my
dear grandmother would have thum-
ped my head with her thimble-I
think they call it 1 garter. Well,
this hitherto mysterious member of
the wardrobe, Of which the great out
side world has only dreamy idea,
now becomes an ostentatious orna-
ment Of the dressing. The delicate
silk stockings is finished out at the
top with laces, run into rutiles, and
clasped with The most elaborate gar
ters-garters with gilt, gold and sill
yer buckles-garters which bring five

Of making your sweetheart present

Of expensive garters for the point

is, TO be surel But the fun comes in
when Angelina makes morning eX-
hibition Of the beauties. There she
enters the parlor now. She carries a
new novel, whose leaves have never
been half cut, and for aught I know
they never will be. And that she

down in Siberia. She falls neglige
in an easy chair, and with the sauci-
est little toss Of her skirts, the silk
stockings come into view and if she
be and adept, you will almost catch
a glimpse Of that upper clasp of gold
