covEKNon NYE.

The report that Governor Nye was
recovering his health and mental facul-
ties is now contradicted. He has beeI
removed from the asylum because his
recovery was pronounced hopeless, not
for the reason that his senses were re-
stored. We doubt if there is within
the limits of Nevada o single individual
who does not regret his unfortunate con-
dition or that would not be pleased to
hear of his recovery, for he was man
that, taken all in all, had but few
equals on the coast. and none that we
know of among the new Senators from
Nevada. He did not set private bust
ness above duty to his constituents;
but always represented his State IN the
Senate, and if he made money in mill
dams he spent it in Carson, which is
indebted to him for its mint and many
other favors. In the contest with dol
lars. three or four years ago. he was
vanquished, and the town Of Carson,
which he so often befriended, deserted
to Money Bags at the trying moment.
Is it any wonder that he is crazy?

THE CHA STOCKHOLDERS

There are two classes of stockholders
in the ella mine in Nye county; one
class is satisfied with the management
of the pany's affairs, and the other
is not. The dissatisfied held a meet
ing in San Francisco Tuesday night to
hear the report of committee APP
pointed at former meeting to inquire
into the management. That committee
reported that the funds of the company
have been used by the managers, who
are large owners, in the Typo Consoli-
dated for the purpose of developing
that mine at the expense of the ella.
1t also reported that twenty thousand
shares of stock were given a manager
to sell for the benefit of the company;
but instead of doing so he sold his own
stock and let the other alone. Thirty
five thousand shares of stock was rep
resented at the meeting, and commit
tee was appointed to nominate Trustees
to be voted for at the annual election.
The Gila has been producing consider
able bullion for some time past, and
though dividends have been promised
from time to time they have not been
forthcoming, because. as the commit
tee Says, the net proceeds have been
used in developing another mine in
which the managers are Interested.

The latest phase of the Beeher-Til

THE latest phase of the Beeher-T Til
atom business is suit brought by Frank
.Moulton against Beecher for malicious
prosecution. The telegraph reports
that copy of the Summons and Com
plant has been served on Beechsr.
The Moultons are determined to get
sBsecher in the Courts again for the
purpose of introducing evidence that
was left out in the scandal suit. Mrs.
sMoulton wants him tried by a council
of Congregationalist Ministers, and her
husband has commenced suit against
him in the Courts of the State. Hen
.ry Ward had better put his threat OF
stepping down and out into execu-
tion and end this. otherwise end
less sestigation and litigation.

New YORK, Dec. %. 1879.
The Herald considers that the only
remedy for the border difficulties is

Government is to keep demonstrating

WESTERN DISPATCHES
An Emotional Affair.

SAN Francisco, Dec. 30.
Dawson has amended his complaint
against the San Francisco Presbytery.
1t appears from the complaint that there
has been some emotional business be-
tween him and a person of opposite sex
of purely Platonic character. While
in that extatic condition he wrote a
good many letters to a mutual friend
about the matter, which mutual friend
betrayed his confidence aud placed the
most of the spistles in the hands Of
three members of the Presbytery, who
are down ON him, wherefore he PRAY
an order that said letters be returned
to him before the newspapers can get
hold of them.
The Homeopthists' Address.
The homeopthists are out in an adj
dress approving bill now before the
Legislature for the suppression Of
qusckery. They state that certain
class of physicians are striving to have
them put under the same law as are
the quacks; and state that the homso-
pathic members of medical profession
are always ready to support and par
ticipate in honest measures for the
public welfare, but they deprecate the
establishment of State medicine, as
they wonld State religion; and they
hold that while doctors disagree, and
learned men denounce each others
systems, the State must hesitate about
conferrng exclusive sanction on any
school Of medicine, or any single body
of medical men, representing but one
school of medicine.

CHICAGO. Dec, 20, 1875.
Beyond the lies which locals publish
one day aud deny the next, nothing has
been developed in whisky business for
ten days. There is absolutely no sfad-
ow of foundation for the report that
the Government has compromised with
small fry in order to catch the larger
game. Testimony is believed to be
complete without any such bargaining.
Jonas 4. Brown, of Minneapolis,
has been arrested for operating in
crooked whisky. and was before United
States Commissioner Cardozo yester-
day. The examination was continued
for one week. The Government
officials have charge of the establish
ment. which, according to their inven-
tory, is worth S35, 200.
Contra dlctory Reports.
ST.. LOUIS, Dec. 80 1875.
The stories Systematically circulated
that the President intends to pardon
ex-Superyisor Mcdonald and ex-Rev-
enue Agent Joyce. are believed to have
been put into circulation by some polit-
ical enemy, and there is evidence that
Senator Henderson had something to
do with first giving them publicity at
ST. Louis. The Attorney General and
President had conversation in regard
to the matter yesterday, when the fact
came out that Joyce had not even
made an application to be pardonsd as
has been alleged.
