SIZE OF THE EYE.

Size with the eye. as with the brain.
is generally conceded to be measure
of capacity. A large eye has a wider
range of vision, as it unquestionably
has of expression, than small one. A
large eye will take in more at glance.
though perhaps with less attention to
detail, than a small one. Generally
speaking, large eyes see things in gen.
eral. and small eyes things in particular.
The one sees many things as whole,
considering them in philosophical
or speculative way, often seeing through
and beyond them; the other sees fewer
things, but usually looks keenly into
them, and is appreciative of detail.
Some eyes, however. look at everything
and yet see nothing.
Fullness of the eye, causing bulg-
ing of the lower eyelid. is the WELL
known sign of Language. Persons
with this sign large have not only a
speaking eye, but also speaking
tongue; whereof their fellows do not
long remain in ignorance. A general
projection or fullness of the eye above
and below, which brings the eyeball
forward on line With the face and
eyebrow, denotes the quality of physi.
cal perception, or the capacity to see
quickly whatever appears upon the
surface of things. A person with such
an eye. on entering room for the first
time would note rapidly the shape,
size, arrangement and general appear
ance ofthe different articles Of furniture
in it, the color of the walls, curtains.
etc.; take in with equal facility the fea-
lures, the color Of eyes and hair, size
and appearance of any person who
might be present. IL looking at a
picture snch person would at once

RELATIVE TO TAXATION.


A bill is now before the Legislature
which provides that all property OF
every kind and nature wbatsoeverwithin
this State shall be subject to taxation.
except:
First--All lands or other property OF
the State. or of any municipal corpora.
ton or county of the State, and all
lands or property of the United States.
Second-Public libraries, colleges,
school-honses, and other buildings Tor
purposes of education, with their fnr-
nitnre. libraries and other equipments.
and the lots or lands thereto appurte-
pant and used Herewith, so long as
the same shall be used for that pnr-
pose; provided, that when any OF the
property mentioned in this subdivision
is private property from which rent
or other valuable consideration is re-
ceived for its use, the same shall De
taxed.
Tbird-Public hospitals. asylnms,
poor houses, and the lots or lands
thereto appurtenant, together with all
furniture and equipments.
Fouth- Cemeteries, graveyards. set
apart and used for the purpose OF in
terring the dead. except when such
cemetery or graveyard is owned as in
dividnal property, and charges made
therefor.
F,fth-Mines and mining claims.
The bill provides that it shall not be
construed as exempting from taxation
possessory claims to the public lands.
or the proceeds of mines, and that all
property shall be taxed at its full value
at the time it is assessed. Although
the bill is just and equitable. and ex-
empts from taxation all property of a
public character, it is not likely to be-
come a law, as it will meet with oppo-
sition from the churches and societies,
whose property at present escapes the
burdens of taxation. which they are
far better able to bear in almost every
instance than many who are compelled
by law to contribute to the support of
the State.

GARIBALDI was enthusiastically well
coined on his arrival in Rome on JAN
uary Is. Before IL clock the entrances
to the public galleriesof the Parliament
House were blocked with people. In
these galleries about two thousand per-
sons were present at o'clock. When
Garibaldi entered tremendous burst
of applause rang ont. Everybody pres
ent, exceptthe Ministers and the Right,
cheered Justify, while some waved their
handkerchiefs and others clapped their
hands. The excitement did not sub.
side until Garibaldi bad taken his seat
and the President then threatened to
clear the galleries if order was not re-.
stored. Shortly afterward Garibaldi
was asked to take the oath of allegiance
to the King. The General said in n
firm voice. 81 swear. At these words
everybody sprapg to his feet and the
cheering broke forth again, even the
Ministers and the members of The Right
joining in the demonstration.

THERE are one or two bills before the
Legislature providing for the purity of
the ballot box. by the punishment of
bribery. at elections. Would il not be
advisable to amend one or both of them
BY providing penalty for members
who violate in the Legislature pledges
made to the people to secure their
election? Recent events show the
necessity for u law of that character,
and we hope some member has
sufficient courage to introduce such
bill or offer it as an amendment to one
now under consideration. The peo.
pie shonld have some protection in
such cases. i.

THE HUMBOLDT RAILROADS.


Yesterday under the head Of :" Rail
roads versus County Division" which
insinuated, in fact, alleged, that the
SILVER STATE sis on the inside of the
railroad ring" The reason assigned
for the allegation was that the SILVER
STATE of Monday announced that a
rumor prevailed at Carson that COM
promise had been effected with the
diyisionists on the railroad basis. We
now propose, in justice to ourselves,
to ventilate that compromise rumor,
and show who is in the ring, 40 tar as
we have been able to ascertain, and
for which We have proof.
Last Saturday evening a gentleman
of this town showed us letter from
Carson which he said he received from
T. v. Julien. The letter stated that
compromise on the basis above men
toned had been made, and that Julien
was coming to Winnemucca for the
purpose of aeanging matters so that
the Register would not oppose the rail-
road bill. 1t also embodied a request
that the person to whom it was adj
dressed ask the SILVER STATE to with
hold opposition to the bill. Allnsion
WAS made to this compromise in Mon
days issue of this paper, together with
the fact that we knew not by whom 1t
had been effected. Since then we
learned from c. S. Varian that the
compromise had been proposed by him
for the purpose of ending the division
movement, and that is all we know
about it, the allegations ofthe Register
to the contrary notwithstanding. 1t is
somewhat surprising, however. that
the immaculate Register should feign
ignorance of the proposition, when our
information was derived from letter
brought here from Carson by one of
its editors and proprietors. 1t is also
astonishing that said editor and pro-
prietor should promise certain gentle
men in this town to use all his personal
influence to secure the passage of the
bill while protesting opposition to it
in the columns of the Register. 1t is,
to say the least, singular that that
editor should accuse the SILVER STATE
of being party to the scheme of
which he professed to sbe ignorant
when all the information the SILVER
STATE had on the subject was derived
from a letter which he brought here
and from verbal statements made by
him while here. 1t is simply one of
those feats of strategy for which GER
tain would be statesmen have acquired
notoriety, but in this instance we have
fortunately proof of all We have
asserted. We candidly confess we
prefer any number of railroads to
division of the county at the present
time, and do not resort to any subter-
fuges to conceal our real sentiments
on that point. The railroad question
is one that the taxpayers of the county
will have to decide should the bill pass,
and we have the greatest confidence in
their ability to determine whether they
want any at the price proposed. We
have no interest in the matter further
than the general welfare of the county,
and have no interest in rings. or any
knowledge of their existence for the
purpose Indicated.
