Carson. January Z. 1875.
En-. NEws: Now that the Senatorial
question il virtually settled. things on
Carson street look more blue than ever.
Shortly after the adjournment Of the
caucus last evening. Mr.. Sharon accom-
panied by u number Of his immediate
friends. left for Virginia by special
train; and . large number Of outside
skirmishsrs. and men Who were drifting
aimlessly on tho sea OF events. also left
for the .'big bonanza" There seems to
DO but very little life and the hotel and
saloon keepers are beginning to ask II
this amt tho ~dog-gondsst dullest SEES
sion ever seen in Carson. The town
will probably Be pretty lively next week.
owing 10 the Senatorial election, after
which. the surplus population will be-
take themselves TO their respective
homes and us Legislators will pursue the
sven tenor Of q way without let or
hindrance. calmly considering bills for
the relief Of the hairs OF Jonathan VIII
liams. deceased. and the improvement
Of the Capitol grounds, and relief bills
for the benefit OF divers and sundry bad
ly oppressed and i~mposed-upon persons.
Legislative nsssers
Are as yet 30 quiet and dull ~ TO be
barely worthy Of mention. In tho Sem
ate. to-day. the various standing com
mittscs were appointed. q list OF which
was telsgraphed to the NEWS.
Senator varian, Of Humboldt, gave
notice Of his intention 10 introduce o
bill providing for an appropriation for
the Improvement OF the Capitol grounds.
Il is q sure thing that the grounds can
stand q great deal Of Improvement; for
in their present condition they are . dis
grace to the State and Carson City
more particularly the latter. don't in
tend TO enter into any disquisition on
this subject, however, for the minute o
fellow even hints that the Legislature
ought not to appropriate every dollar in
the irreducibls school fund for the beau
tifyingof the Capitol grounds. right then
and there tho Carson people say you are
prejudiced against their town. For my
part, I should like to see the Capitol
grounds q pleasant promenade. with o
murmuring stream. its banks lined with
~accacias, honsysuckls. horse chestnut.
and bread fruit trees, ripping and spark
ling past the State Treasurer's Office.
And | wouldn't care II they put 9 row
Of bird cages filed with Canary birds all
around ths Capitol grounds fence; but
I do believe that the people Of Carson
ought TO put up some Of the coin neces-
sary to pay for these Injuries.
shortly after 2 o'clock the Senate went
into executive session. and confirmed
the Governors nomination Of General
]. h. Winters to be Major General Of
the Nevada State Militia.
In the House, the only business OF in
tsrest transacted wa the introduction Of
| q bill by Hogan OF washos, TO amend
the Registry Act. II requires q residence
| Of one year in the State to qualify an
e~lector. instead Of six months, a at the
present time. This, l believe, to be n
good provision. which will undoubtedly.
II enacted. tend to prevent political cor
ruption and trickery. though to tell the
truth. there il not more than about i've
per cent. Of the political corruption in
this State that is charged 10 "a account
BY the virtuous California and Eastern
press. It 10 true that there are many
virtuous men in this State, who. like
the woman in q certain town In France
which had been sacked by an enemy.
wanted to know when the ravishing Ia
going TO commence. They are pretty
thick about election times; but, a. q
rule. they don't get AWAY with much
coin.
About Town.
A simeon swept up Carson street this
a~ftsrnoon. and as soon ~ IL subsidized
and pedestrians got their eyes sluieed
out, they bsheld the street covered with
chignons, hats. coats, NUTS, small
children. poodlss and wagon tires. For
successful entertainments Of this nature.
Carson can discount any town in the
State.
There will be no public Inauguration
Of Governor Bradley. and, perhaps, not
IN Inauguration ball. M by a con-
current resolution the Governor viii be
inauguratsd at his residence. he being
too unwsll TO leave his bed. and his
physicians declaring that m attempt to
do so would be at tho risk OF his life.
II is stated, however. that his condition
is rapidly improving. and that all dang
or Of q fatal result 10 passed.
An attempt was made this evening to
organize the Third House. but II was q
failure. and the House adjourned to
meet at the call Of the hold-over Secrs-
tary. IL In too early in the session for
this branch Of the Legislature to COM
mence business, n there is, at present.
no material to work on.
The Carson Theatsr has been run
ming. under the management Of Senator
John Piper. / have not attended any
Of the performances, - yet, owing to
the non arrival Of my Misunderstanding

bsrs from the ''Great East say its q
good show: 30 IL I can dead.head In,
tomorrow evening. I may attend.
The Senate. this afternoon. adjourned
until Saturday nsIt; therefore l adjourn
for the same period ToBY GRxES.
