JAPAN. - Ex- Minister c.. E. De-
Long, is announced to give lecture
at Piper's Opera House on Saturday
evening next, for the benefit of the
Pacific Coast Pioneers. Subject :
Japan. The experience of Mr.. De-
Long, while U. S. Minister in that
country, his thorough culture, and
~ithal his most pleasant manner OF
addressing a public assembly, all
point to Saturday as an evening of
rare literary entertainment. 1t is
unnecessary for us to bespeak full
house, as we confidently predict an
auditorium thronged to its utmost
capacity.

DAYTON. The Dayton Public
School gave highly interesting
public Examination and Concert on
Sunday evening last, it is presumed
in pecuniary aid of the school affairs
in the town. Silver City parties who
were present, pronounce the enter

NAL to the ability of the teacher and
educational progress OF the pupils
under her charge.

ONE of the recent discoveries in
Bdorado Canyon under the superin-
tendence of Mr.. Shultz, gives evil
dence of material wealth in the pro-
duction of a good body of rock as
saying from 1925 to $3.50 per ton.
The main shaft is now down forty
feet, further progress being tempo
rally impeded by water; as soon as
this difficulty can be overcome, de-
velopements will again be COM
menced.

HOMICIDE AT PANAMINT.-Ap ri-
vate letter from Panamint gives an
account of the killing of Ed.
Barstow by James Bruce, on the
Goth of March. The feud which
led to the killing was the possess
DRY right to certain lode claim in
the district. Both men are toler-
ably well known here among the
miners. Whether justly or unjust
ly, we do not presume to say,
Bruce has acquired the reputation
of bully at Panamint, while his
victim is said to have been a quiet,
inotfensive man. Bruce is under
arrest" Rufe" Arick undertaking
his defense.

OFFICIAL.-We extract the follow
ing letters from superintendents of
mines in this dictrict, from the SAN
Francisco Stock Report:
Undergraduates of the 9th says:
The water is the principal matter to
contend with at present, yet it is not
as bad to contend as it has been.
Are putting in stills for floor of sta
ton to day. viii be ready to start
on drift by Monday morning. The
rock in face of station is looking
quite favorable. Are running
machinery up to full capacity and
should nothing adversely happen,
there will be no difficulty in hand
ling the water. Should such be the
case, a report of the general charac-
ter of the ledge may be anticipated
by the next weekly report.
Dayton.-Letter of the 9th says {:
The rock in the shaft continues good
blasting, without any particular
change during last few days.

SACRAMENTO HoUsEs.-The chi,

SACRAMENTO HoUsEs.-Th Chico
Enterprise has the following to say
concerning a Sacramento house:
"Among the business of the State,
that of Marcus G. Hawley Il Co.
ranks with the first. They are fully
up to the requirements of the age,
first, in the large supply of hardware
and agricultural implements, suited
to every condition of the trade, al
ways on hand second, in the energy
they bring into requisition in the
prosecution of their business +; and
third, the liberality they practice in
furnishing the public with a know
ledge of their business. Such bust
ness institutions are bound to win.
1t is the determination of Marcus
G. Hawley Il Co. that no house in
the same line of trade in the State
shall excel them, and if industry,
liberality, and perfect knowledge
of the business will bring trade,
they will have it,"

A STREET rumor threatens our

concomitant to the present or future

OUR COUNTY CONVENTION.

In our yesterdays afternoon edi
tion we briefly noticed the action of
the County meeting, held ut the
Court House yesterday, in refusing
to nominate candidate Cor the
Constitutional Convention. We
have only to add that we have not
sought to dictate to the Democrats
Of Dallas county, as has been falsely
charged, but we have merely eX-
pressed our own convictions of pei.
icy; feeling satisfied, at the same
time that we expressed the opinion
of large majority of our fellow
Democrats. The action of the Con-
vention yesterday demonstrated the
correctness Of onr Judgment, and is
the best answer to the ilI-naturcd
charges made against us by our
Fort Worth cotcmporaries.
Now that the question of n nomi-
nation for this county is settled, we
wish TO say to the Democrats of
TarranL that SO far from
desiring to defraud them out
of their one share in the
Conventional representation that
we regret exceedingly they have
nominated Il candidate whom under
no circumstances can the Democrats
of this county support. Had they
wisely brought out any one of their
able men, such as Captain John
Hanna, Sam. Evans or Major Van
Zandt, he would have received al
most the united Democratic vote of
Dallas county, just as Judge Ferris,
of Ellis, is sure to do. The forma-
tion Of an organic law, for the gov
ernment of millions of people,
through generations to come, regu-
lating all their various, and often
interests, is too grave
and important a duty to be en-
trusted to any but our ablest men
and voters will be guilty of u crime
against posterity who entrust the
task to any other. Let every voter
