DIsAGREED.-It did not require
the gift Of second sight to foresee the
disagreement of the jury in the
Beecher case, but it does require the
wisdom of Solomon and peep
into futurity to now prophesy the
final result Of the great trial. The
case is now exactly where it was first
begun, Upon Henry Ward Beecher
still rests the imputation of aheinous
crime, and which must be dispelled
by proof and favorable verdict by
a jury yet to be impannelled. The
family of Theodore 1ilton is, if pos
sible, by the result of this hearing,
buried deeper than ever in shame
and disgrace, while the social city of
Brooklyn must live and breathe on
and under an avalanche of scandal.
Neither party has gained the vantage
ground. but all are defiant, and with
bated breath are awaiting second
encounter. Nothing in a second
trial short of its verdict, will have
power to further interest the public.

THE NEVADA DEMOCRAT"

The first number of Col. Dow's
new paper, at Reno, which bears the
above name, made its appearance
among our exchanges on Thursday.
1t Is q resurrection from the material
formerly used by the now defunct
Reno Crescent, and bears q neat ty-
biographical countenance. Col.
Dow says it is but issued in its pres
ent size until new material can be
procured for an enlarged paper. He
is modest and unassuming in his
salutatory, and says "the Democrat
will be left to be known by its
fruit" The Colonel and his new
paper have our best wishes for snc-
cess, and the request to sex" is
eheerfully complied with.

JULY 4, 1875.

IN This glorious Fourth of July
morning every true American heart
throbs with quicker pulse than of
Yesterday. It is the ninety-ninth
birthday Of the American Republic
-"The land Of the free and the
home Of the brave" On this COM
memoration day of a great Nations
independence, it is eminently be-
fitting that the patriotism OF her
sons and daughters do homage at
the shrine Of Liberty-the folds Of
whose glorious, blood-bought flag
now Hoat over every sea and in
every land, feared by every foe and
revered by every friend. 1t is the
sacred emblem Of glorious legacy
handed down through nearly a CEN
fury Of years by the hero-fathers of
'76 to tile American patriots of to-
day, and for hundred hundred
wears to come. Patriotism, Virtue,
love of country, Honor, and Truth,
is with us to-day as it was with
those who struck the first blows for
liberty on the bloody fields OF the
Revolution. The Nation created
by them has progressed, not retro
graded. There are those who sigh
over the degeneracy of the times,
and lament that the age of chivalry
and patriotism has gone. Not so; the
heroes may have passed away, but
the spirit Of 76 still remains. The
voice of q Washington is stilled in
the sacred silence of a patriots
grave; no longer are the flames of a
revolutionary camp fire burning
along the river, the valley, and the
mountain-tops; no longer do the
the bleeding, unshod, feet Of pa
triot army track in crimson the soil
of New England, and no longer the
iron heel Of an oppressor is uplifted
to crush ont our liberties. The
rolling years Of ten decades have
buried deeply beneath their mould
ering corses the reality of these
memories; but the devotion of the
patriot, the ardor of the warrior,
the warmth Of the lover, the virtue
Of woman, the fidelity of friend and
the loyalty Of the Nation, do not
sleep in the graves of the heroes
Of 1776. The same spirit that ac-
tuated theme hundred years ago,
still pervadesNe zach true American
heart to-day, and the hundred CEN
tuSias-tQ come shall not dim its
-1dstre nor quechsits fires Send
ont to-day your cheers on the
fhreeze Of this mountain land, and
let "Old Glory" float out from
every house-top and staff I! IT'S
our Nations birthday! God bless
our native land!

Romance In q Restaurant.

In the year 1773 there died in the city
Of Copenhagen an eccentric merchant who
had once been wealthy, but whose fortune
had by unsuccessful speculation been re-
duced to 5000 rix dollars Two-thirds of
this amount he invested C for the benefit
of his descendants, and provided by will
that neither principal nor interest should be
drawn for 100 years. Long before the ex-
piration of that time the singular pro-
vision was forgotten, and his descendants,
even if they knew his name, thought no
more of him than of any other remote
progenitor. About two years ago the will
was discovered by a lawyer who had oc-
casion to examine certain old documents
on file in the Registers office in Copen-
hagen. The lawyer took the matter in
hand, and diligent inquiry found the heirs
scattered through all the countries of
Western Europe, and that one had found
her way to America. The latter was a
Mrs. Julius Knochenduppul, native of
Hamburg, who came to New York about
twelve years ago, where she was married
in 1868. Knochenduppul is waiter en-
ployed in Mouquin's restaurant on Fulton
street, or, rather, he was employed there
until few days ago, when an official note
from the Register of Wills in Copenhagen
informed his wife that she was heir to
$4,000, and directing her 70 prosel.s her
claim in person as soon as possible
Knochenduppul lived in Hoboken with
his wife, two children and his wife's
mother. He was in arrears for rent, and
had been threatened with ejectment from
the house he occupied; but on the strength
of his letter from Denmark he was able
to borrow enough money to transport him
self and family to Copenhagen and main
tain them there until the inheritance can
be collected.-N. 7. Herald.

STILL WATER.

He wrote and wrote, but could not make a
name;
Then cursed his fate and called the world to
blame
The world, that knew not genius when it
came.

For nothing; but that damns us, wrong or
right,
Rather for sheer Indifference than for spite"
One of his friends would slyly smile to hear.
"Ah! secondhand Byronics!n one would

One said: "Give over" One said: "Perse-
vere"
One said but little, though she thought and
thought,
Through the long weeks and all the work
they brought,
While the wife toiled and while the mother
taught.
There went story that he might have wed
An heiress, this poor scribbler for his bread,
But took little, meek-eyed girl instead
A little meek-eyed girl without a cent,
Who scarcely knew what half his writings
meant
Loved him reyeringly, and was content
And now she unused and unused upon way
To brighten his dull face again. One day
Her slender hand along his shoulder lay:
= Write this!" and then she told him what to
write
In just few fleet words, and stole from
sight
With smiling lips, but with a look of fright.
He laughed at first; yet in a little space
The Ianguid laughter died from out his face,
And left mute meditation in its place
If | mistake not it was this same year
That suddenly men knew him, far and near,
AS having won the worlds capricioUs ear.
And she? Why, if she had not seen so plain
How soon the laurels cured his longing pain,
She might have held them even in mild dis
dain.
But now she blesses Fortunes kind decree
Proud, glad through him, though still, for all
we see,
The same small, meek-eyed wife she used
to be.

A Singular Story.

A STRANGE story is reported from Spain.
A detachment OF Alfonsist soldiers recent
ly discovered in a secluded part of a
mountain chain cavern which was in
habited by robbers, who had taken adj
vantage Of the civil war in order to ply
their criminal avocations. An alcove was
attached to this subterranean dwelling, the
door of which the soldiers broke open.
They were astonished to find the apart
ment so decently furnished, and provided
with books, flowers and even piano. III
an easy-chair sat venerable old man.
The soldiers Intercepted him, but OBJ
tanned only incoherent replies. 1t has
been ascertained, from the confession OF
one of the robbers that the old man was
the cashier of banking firm at Bourgos;
that they had broken into the bank and
stolen the safe, and had taken the cashier
with them, in hopes that he would assist
them to open the safe. During the re-
treat, which was marked by many advent
ures, the intrepid old man succeeded in
evading the vigilance of his guardians for
a short time, and secreted the safe in a
place where he would be able to recover it
afterward When the booty was missed,
and the robbers failed to induce the cashier
TO reveal to them the place where it was
concealed, they revived the proceedings
of the famous cbGfeurs by rtasting the
feet of their victim in order to extort a
confession. But the inflicted tortures had
a different effect, The man got mad; and
it was with the object of restoring him to
reason that the robbers bestowed the ut
most attention on him, in hopes that when
he recovered his reason he would reveal
to them the place where the safe was con.
cealed.

Always " Coin To-"

NETTIE NEAL never did, butwas always
"gOin' to-" 1t was such a provoking
habit, never to be quite ready to do as she
was bid; never ready to put away her
things, go on an errand come to supper,
or go to bed, but always eyes, mamma,
Pm goin' to-" Mamma Neal grew ex-
asperated at last; she was tired of asking.
and telling, and calling over and over for
her little girl to do what she wished her
to; so she determined one day she would
cure Nettie homGopathically-by which
she meant she would use the same method
in small doses, ana see if she could effect
a cure in that way
Therefore, one morning when Nettle
came running in from the lawn with her
dolls arm torn off its shoulder and asked.
Mamma, won't you please fix my dol
lies arm?" mamma lifted her eyes up
from her work and answered: eyes,
Nettie, Pm going to-" and then went on
sewing. Nettie waited little while, and
then asked again: " Won't you please sew
my dOllie's arm on, mammal" eyes,
I'm going to-" replied mamma, not lifting
her eyes from her work. "But, mamma
dear, l want you to do it now, right
away" and there was little break in the
tremulous voice. why do you? 1
didn't know you meant that; [ thought
my own time would suit you just as
well''-and then mamma took the doll
and soon sewed on its limp, hanging
arm.
Nettie went out on the lawn again,
walking little slowly There was a
strange, new thought stirring in her little
brain, you see, but romp with Ponto
soon put it all out OF her head, and when
mamma calledsher to dinner she answered
back as usual: Yes, mamma, I'm goin'
to- and went on racing over the lawn and
across the brook and back again, until by
the time she was ready to come in dinner
was all over.
:" Give me some dinner, mamma" she
cried, as she saw the table being cleared
away and mamma preparing to 90 up
stairs for her afternoon nap. eyes, Net
tie, Pm going to-" answered mamma,
going on up the hall stairs. Nettie ran
on after her and chung to her dress, Sob
bling: " But Pm hungry now. I want it
now, mamma! Please come down and
give me my dinner
Mamma stopped on the stairs then and
answered very slowly: do you see now
from experience, Nettie, how trying and
troublesome it is not to do thing at once
which is asked of you? IF l should an
swer every time you want to be waited
upon or cared for: Yes, I'm going to,
Nettie'-as you do when speak to YOU
and then not do the thing at once which
you ask, as you dol fear you would go
hungry and neglected and be altogether
very unhappy little girl. Now that you
have experienced in this little way how
disagreeable and uncomfortable person
is made, and can be, by always going
to- and never doing at once a thing de-
sired of them, | hope you will try to
break yourself of the habit and obey I'M
naedtatcly when spoken to''-and then
mamma took Nettie up in her arms and
kissed away the great tears trembling on
her eyelashes and went downstairs to
give her little girl her dinner; and after
that day Nettie Neal always tried to do at
once what she was told without first an
swering: Yes, I'm goin' to."-Churct-

as soon as he had gone.

truthful flower. You're not pretty-not
