THE LAKE Probably
about one out of Il hundred III the
eastern states is aware that on Lake
Tahoe floats .aunyy little steam
craft tor the accommodation of those
who may visit this muuntain locked,
emerald fringed, crystal ocean which
is the pride OF Nevada, and an un-
speakable blessing 10 the tourist who
comes from the arid shores of sun
rise. Yet never the less such is the
case. Visitors at the lake, and our
correspondent in particular, men
ton the emerald" as the pride of
the wave. She is forty nine feet in
length, of propeller model, and is
said to split the tranquil deep at the
rate of fifteen miles an hour. A
good many of our people are looking
Tahoe wards just now, and by Tie
time that July gets half-growth will
be daily leaving for this popular
resort.

CONvALEsCENT.-W are glad to
state that Mrs. VIM. Atkinson's
''little white pullet" is in fair way
to recover. 1t was thought no
chicken of her weight-lH pounds
could do that thing and live. To be
sure it was the little heroine's first
attempt, and it is no sign because
she can straddle l2-inch plank this
morning that she won't try to make
a better score in future. The gt1
of her first essay was presented to us
yesterday In the shape of large
white egg, measuring So inches by
81 inches. Although this does not
quite come up to the egg sent us

THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER.
BY FRANCIS SCOTT KEY.

o say. can you see by the dawn's early ight,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight
last gleaming?- .a,,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through
the perilous fight, ,.,.
Der the ramparts we watched were so Saiiah'i'
streamingi
And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting
in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was
still there; -
o say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
Der the land OF the free and the home OF the
brave?
On that shore, dimly seen through the mists OF
the deep,
Where the foes naughty host in dread silence
reposes,
What is that which the breeze, DER the tower
ing steep,
As il ftfully blows, now conceals, now as
closes?
Now it catches the CLEAN of the mornings first
beam,
In full glory reflected, now shines on the
stream:
It's the star-spangled banner! o long may it
Der the land of the free and the home Of the
brave!
And where is that band who SO vauntingly
That the havoc of war and the battles confu.
sion
home and country should leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul foot
steps pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of fiji hit or the gloom of thes
grave:
And the star-spangled hammer in triumph dothI1
wave
Ger the land of the free and the home of ths
brave!
o, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their Lowell homes and the wars DESC
latonl
Blest with victory and peace, may the hesyelt
rescued land & .
Praise the Power that hath made and preseryt

Then conquer we must when our Cause it

And this be our motto. "In God is gu trust ,
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shJi

TO OUR PATRONS.

Having incurred large additional expense
in charging THE TIMES to its present proper
tions. we are Obliged to call the attention of
delinauents on our books to the fact that we are
in need of the amounts due u.s. If you pay we
can settle the demands against us and be free
from debt To be sure, each of the amounts
are small, but, aggregated, foot up to a sum
that would materially assist us just at the pre-
sent time. We hope this hint will be sufficient.
We are going to give you good paper, and it
takes money to run it.

Though the Americans were victori-
Gus their victory was accepted by the
vanquished Irishmen in the best pos
sibe spirit, as will be seen from the
dispatch giving an account OF the
contest: 1.-The number of persons
who assembled to witness the shoot
ing gradually increased as the match
drew to close. The victory of the
American marksmen was hailed with
tremendous enthusiasm. The most
enthusiastic ovation was given the
American team on their return from
Dolly Mount to this city tn is even
ing. A grand banquet in their hon
or was given tonight by the Lord
Mayor of Dublin at the Mansion
House. A large number of distin-
guished guests, including the Lord
Mayors of London and York, We're
present. The Irish riflemen admit
the superiority of the Americans
throughout the match, and acknowl-
edge that their victory was fairly
won. The American team used
breech leaders: the Irish team all
used Rigby's zle-loaders. :"

opened the stove door and took out
stick OF wood, setting fire to its
clothing. The mother, hearing the

dreadfully burned. The little suf
ferer will probably recover, but will

A PAGAN CURIoSIrY.-I is hardly
right to parade mans deformities
before the public, but as every little
freak of nature should be properly
noticed, we feel it to be no harm
that we should make known the
fact that All Wan, one of the manip-
ulators of dirty linen in this pre-
cinct, is blessed with one more
thumb than average humanity. The
extra thumb, which is perfect in
every respect, but considerably
smaller than the one below it, grows
out from the hand directly above
the natural thumb, is of an equal
length, with the same number OF
joints, a perfect and regularly formed
nail with the usual amount OF real
estate beneath) and having :he same
! powers Of movement as the natural
thumb. 1t moves in unison with
inc natural iHciilpcl, ho"eNei' anu
OF itself has no independent power
of movement. We undertook to
question "John" about it at Joe
Munckton's, yesterday, but he was
evidently disinclined to give us any
information as to its utility. We
! balieva il to be one of the rareSt
frcaks'of nature yet exhibited, and

THE KING OF PAIN.-Iou might
have noticed a peculiar looking in
dividual harr lngiug the multitude
on Main street on Tuesday afternoon
from the cushioned seats of q
barouche, and might have heard the
seductive strains of a well played
banjo "tum-tum ing" a prelude to
the curious looking gontleman's re-
marks. 1t was not Theodore Tilton,
though 'sthe flowing locks to Shout
der reaching, and the honIed words
of sermon preaching" might have
led to that conclusion. 1t was simply
DR.. Mcbride, the celebrated "king
of Pain" come among us like good
Samaritan to relieve the aches and
ills of the multitude through a dis
covery in medicine that has made
him rich, and countless thousands
well and happy. Read the notice i'll

only genuine liking of Pain "a Won

une relief for all the ills that flesh is

JUSTICES COURT.

The regular session of the July
fights was inaugurated on Tuesday,
and for q time the "head-maker" was
in heated debate. The first case,
which was not considered of sufficient
importance to be brought before the
majesty of the law for adjudication,
occurred in front of lacks barber
shop, on Main street, at about dinner
time. A party who was looking for
his captain" as he called it, found
what he evidently took to be the in
dividual, and after triple inter-
change of blows and the drawing of
a siX-shooter, the matter was AMIGA
bly, settled without personal damage.
The second case, which was more
successful, occurred in a Main street
saloon. John Murphy, whose bellig-
erent qualifications needed an explain
alton before the Court some time ago,
became involved in Il discussion with
Lyman Jones, which finally pro
crossed into blows and regular
rough and tumble fight. Mr.. Muir
ply being the handicst with his
maulcys, brought the contest to a
close on the second round, Jones
throwing up the sponge and retiring
from the field with badly damaged
frontispiccc. We had not the slight
est idea that any one not interested
would object to this style of amuse-
mcnt, but it seems that some gentle
man having the dignity of the State
in reverence, soon afterward entered
complaint before Judge J. Porter
Gould that an assault and battery
had been committed within the sa-
cred circle prescribed by the statutes
of Nevada, whereupon the assaulting
party, Mr.. Murphy, and the assaulted,
were brought before the Court. As
soon as the defendant was brought
into the presence of the Judicial err
mine all noise was hushcd,
"And the Court took chew of the weed and
he says,
'Are you guilty or not, John Murphy, if you
please?"
A large crowd convened at the bar of
Justice to witness the supremacy Of
the law asserting itself, and We're
soon ggatitied by seeing the blind
goddess bring down the avcnging
