A TELLING EFFORT.

Following are the remarks OF Hon. Il.
D. Smart, made in the Assembly last
week, on the bill to transfer the Blind
ASYLUM from GAINESVILLE to Madison.
It will be seen that our representative
took correct view of the matter and
used good language to present it:
Mr.. SMART said-Mr. Speaker, [ had
not intended to say anything upon Senate
bill No Sc, but perhaps few words from
me, at present, may not seem amlss.
I had made up my mind to vote
against the bill as matter of economy
on the part of the State, thinking the
buildings owned by the State here In
Madison, perhaps sufficient to be used
to advantage for the Institute for the
Blind of our State. But, Mr.. Speaker,
being Oh a visit to Beloit last Monday, l
took the occasion to drive over to James
vile and see the ruins of that once truly
beautiful structure for the blind, which
was certainly credit and an honor to
the State T did not find the ruins as /
had pictured them in my imagination,
but found still situated on the ground a
beautiful building, costing some fifteen
bIOuSduO OOl1dto, OF DSlh oAACC
thousand dollars, and gas house cost
ing ten to twelve hundred dollars. l
also found that all these Improvements,
with the shade trees, graveled walks,
&C.. were situated upon the ten acres of
land that will revert back to the original
donor if not used for the purpose for
which they were donated. [ also found
the foundation to the building burnt to
be good and substantial, having depth
of eighteen to twenty feet, and down to
the solid rock, and could be made avail
able in rebuilding the Institute for the
Blind [ found some sixty pupils now
there, being tenderly cared for, many of
them rooming with the teachers. Con-
sidering all these facts, found [ could
not vote upon this matter as had intend
ed having made up my mind that the
State cannot afford to loose all this pro-
perty at GAINESVILLE; neither canthe State
afford to have blind legislatures at Madi-
son. I am candidly of the opinion, now,
that if the bill should pass, it would
meet with the appreciation of every
thinking man that will take the time and
pains to investigate this matter for the
State, as he would do in such matters of
Importance for himself. With all these
thoughts engendered in my mind, with
out prejudice towards any, and without
any feelings whatever on the subject,
no one knowing my views upon the mat
ter, as the object Of my visit to James
vile, cannot but think them correct,
and will stake my reputation as a gentle
man, that if we refuse to rebuild the In
stitute for the Blind at GAINESVILLE, the
State at large will suffer a serious loss,
and we as a Legislative body will have
made a mistake.

WHEN TO ADVERTISE. There is no
season of the year when it is safe to dis
continue advertising.
When business is dull IL is needed
most and should be most energetically
used, because people are most attached
at all times to the houses who take the
most pains to invite their trade, and adj
vertisers then get the largest share of
what is doing.
dull times it is said, ''are the best
for advertisers. Because, when money
is tight and the people are forced to
economic they always read the adver-
tisements to ascertain who sells the
cheapest and where they can trade to
the best advantage.
If your good have special seasons,
build up name for them when out of
season; and that reputation Will largely
aid your sales when the season arrives
for putting them into the market. IF
''no pent up season limits the demand
for your wares, it is clear that there is
no time when you can judIciously with
draw from the public eye your announce
ment.-IOledO Commercial.

SPEAKING of the passage Of the bill
which appropriates $61, 600 for the re-
building of the Blind Institute at James
vile, the GAINESVILLE Gazette of the Goth
ult. says:
Before leaving the subject we wish to
make grateful Acknowledgements to AS
semblyman r. D. Smart, of Manitowoc,
for the special interest he took in the
matter. He was opposed to the appro-
priation at first, but recently he went to
Beloit to visit friends, and while there
concluded to return by the way of this
city and look at the Institute grounds.
He did so, gave them thorough ex-
animation, and returned to Madison
convinced that the interests of the State
demanded the rebuilding on the old
site. Last night he made d speech,
basing his remarks on his own observa-
ton and common sense, attracted the
closest attention of the Assembly, and
his plain statement of facts and his
earnest and forcible manner in speak
ing, did much to change the temper of
that body. For his manly course and
able speech, our delegation in the Legis-
lature, and our citizens generally, ten
der him their sincerest thanks.

The coming novelties in ladies' hinge
ne are Byron collars and cuffs; indeed,
they have already been introduced, and
have become popular with. fair young
ladies whose complexion can endure
this broad expanse of linen; boarding
school girls especially delight in them.
They are like gentlemen's shirt collars,
with rather more exaggerated points.
They are made of double linen attached
TO band, as gentlemen wear them, and
would be improved by having a collar
cite of muslin added. Price twenty
i've cents. The cuffs, made to match,
are wide and square-cornered, and are
worn turned up on the outside of the
sleeve of the dress.

Fire.-A fire broke out at the I'M
perial works at about 10 o'clock
Friday morning, and for time
threatened the shaft. Prompt eff
forts, however, made by the fire de-
partments of Gold Hill and Virginia,
and the men at the mine, extin-
guished the flames before very Sc
rious damage was done. The men
in the mine were at work mostly on
the l950.foo level. They were APP
prised of their danger by line writ
ten hurriedly on a shingle and sent
down to them on the giraffe. They
were raised to the l700-foot level,
from which few were taken up the
shaft, but by far the greater number
passed through to tho Yellow Jacket,
and thus escaped. The feelings
which must come to a mans mind
who is buried 1850 feet under
ground, with a fire raging at the top
of the shaft, can be nothing else
than terrifying. 1t is said that the
hair of one of the miners thus i'm
prisoned on Friday became gray
while he was being hoisted out Of
the mine.

T. r. THE tea crop of Japan,
upon which the various tea markets
of the new world almost solely de-
pend for their finest brands ofteas, is
this year reported to be greater in
quantity and better in quality than
for many years past, and large con-
tracts have already been made by
wholesale dealers East and West for
tea raised the present season. Com
paratively few in Nevada are aware
of the fact that there is firm in Vir-
ginia City who contract for all Of
their finest green and black teas di-
rect from first hands; yet it is fact.
Messrs. Beer Bros, the great grocery
firm of the State, located at Virginia
City, have contracted largely for this
years crop, and, with their immense
stock of all grades on hand, can justly
claim the lead in the tea business OF
the Pacific Coast. Their daily sales
of teas alone amount to fair income
for a business house, and when added
to their transactions in. staple and
fancy groceries, the receipts are enor-
nous. Preparations for enlargement
of building for the accommodation
of their rapidly increasing trade are
now under way, and they will have
ample room for the new contracts.
We give the above facts as q matter
of general interest and irrespective OF
advertising patronage.

This is common error among those
who have never visited the merchant

the most perfect fitting garments can
be obtained. The customer is meas

ire, whose talented company will ap.
pear at Piper's Opera House on Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday even
ings of this week. 1t is not general
ly known that Mr.. Daily commenced
life as a journalist, and in this con-
nection word deserved fame as a
dramatic critic. In 1869 he relin-
pushed the journalistic profession
for that of the stage, and has proven
himself fully equal to the successful
management of frst-class theatfe
and company. He is also drama
tic author of no inconsiderable fame,
having written four original plays,
and rewritten and adapted very
many others. His present company
is made up of an array OF theatrical
talent superior to any that have yet
visited the Pacific coast, consisting of
twenty one artists in the profession.
The plays selected for the three days
to come are among the very best
performed by the company, and will
call out the entire theatre going pub
lie of this vicinity. They will open
on Monday night in the play of
Divorce''-original cast. On Tues
day evening "Saratoga" and the
though Diamond" will be present
ed. A matinee will be given on
Wednesday afternoon, at which the
play entitled "Charity" will be pro-
duced. On Wednesday evening the
latest London sensation, "Weak
Woman" will be presented. This
drama is at present being played in
London to crowded houses. After
the close of the performance on We'd
nesday night the company will go
| to Reno on special train, and
thence TO Salt Lake, where they will
appear for three nights. They are
to commence AN engagement in
New York September2nd. The i'm
provements lately made to the OPP
era House by Manager Piper, rend-
ers it more convenient and comfort
able for crowded audience, and
for this Mr.. p. deserves the thanks
of his numerous patrons. Secured
seats should be engaged by telegraph
| or by mail in advance of the evening
you intend going, as the Opera
House will be crowded every night
of the short engagement.

The VIVIAN. - Developments on
the Vivian Cook & Geyer) mine are
progressing very rapidly and in
very satisfactory manner. The shaf
is now in distance OF 120 feet, show
ing the vein to be IL feet in width at
that depth. The rock comes out
easily and requires no blasting.
Stopping is steadily going on in the
first level and from Is to 20 tons of
good milling ore are being daily
sent to the Excelsior mill for reduce
ton. This quantity could be largely
increased if desired, but just at pres
ent more attention Is being given to
the rapid development of the mine
than the extraction of ore. Forty
men find employment at the mine
and are intelligently directed by the
bluff and practical Superintendent,
Mr.. SAINT TangYe,who is thorough
miner and a hard worker. The pros
poets of this mine are first-rate,as the
fact of the Excelsior mill being kept
in motion evidences. A new engine
has lately been put up at the mine
by the Supt and is working without
a single fault. Mr.. Tangye is the
right man in the right place.
