To THE EDITOR OF TN SILVER STATE
In your issue of the 5tb, in noticing
tie lightning train and its reception
here, you were kind enough TO con-
meet my name with that of Mr.. Da-
Wis Ia the anvil salute. Permit me to,
say that I claim very little credit for
the part | took on that occasion.
Messrs. Fult on and Palmer did most
of the wo,k, and with Homer Davis,
Gus. Kre nkle and j. 2 Sbafer deserve
the large st share of the credit for the
reception given the frs lightning train
that ever crossed the continent from
ocean to ocean. l say this as trib-
ute to those who derer've it.
Respectfully NJ. b. STAUNroN.
The above explains itself but we
were informed that the idea of firing
the salute originated with Mr.. Staon-
ton, aud that he furnished the powder
for the occasion. At any rate the
compliment was appreciated by the
passengers on the train.

we believe, the remains were partially
covered With stones. As the Indians
bury their dead in that manner it is
possible that. the skeletons are those
OF noble red men who have goue to the

of i;s being that OF an Indian.

CORkE~f OADkNCE.

The SILVER STATE is requested to
give the particulars of the recent legal
rfare at UnieuvilIe.
Upon the complaint of M. Donley
Esq, Messrs q. A. IL &. Kyle were ar
rested for altering the marx upon
and branding q COW with the intent to
steal her Messrs KYLE were repre-
seated by Geo. 2. Hafdiag, and the
State by NJ Donley, the aceuser. Fol
lowing is synopsis of the decision Of
the Court, rendered by Justice McMil
Ian, which renders further explanation
usnecessary.
q The defendants in this case have
been very liberal, aud have not during
their examination attempted to make
any advantage or te,hnieality avail
them. The attorney of defendants as
sisted in curing the complaint Of some
defects that might have greatly aided
his clients. and spared no effort to
have it made nnobjeesionable to the
extent. and with the view, that the de-
PENDANTS might be held if the proof
justified it. The defense evinced from
the beginning to the end Of the exam
ination no purpose OF design. but that
if defendants should be acquitted,
their acqnittal would be upon the mer-
its of the case alone. and not only con-
sented to, but proposed more thln Que
continuance that was gyauted for the
State to bring up its tardy witnesses.
The only debaiaole question is one ar
rising as to the identity of the COW
which is the caus,ts bell. The defend
ants did not act like guilty men, If
they inten led to steal COW With three
conspicuous brands on her they would
most probably have cut her throat
than stuck their own brand Cd her
hide. The Court has no doubt as TO
the entire absense of criminal insen-
ton on the part Of the defendants, and
they are ordered discharged.

A RICH MINE.-George E. Weber,
late Superintendent of the Belmont
minc. aud formerly connected vita the
Evening Star mill and mine of this
county. passed here last evening on
his way from Belmont to San Francisco
He informed us that the Barcelona
mine. near Belmont, is producing ore
worth s 900 ton, and that he saw
blast displace ore IN that mine last Sat
urday estimated at being worth $4,000.
lie says the ledge is l05 feet wide be-
tween walls. 40 feet OF which yields
milling ore that averages over 800
per ton. This il on the surface, how
ever, and of course nothing is known
of what the mine will prove to be when
depth il attained. The discovery OF
this ore body has created great excite

NO BLESSING in THAT HOUSE.


No blessing in that house
Where rum has entered in;
Nothing but care and want,
Nothing but woe and sin;
Nothing but hunger and rags,
Nothing but signs and tears,
And days of grief aud pain
Through all the long, long years.
No blessing in that house
Where rum sits on its throne +; r
Nothing but aching. breaking hearts,
That cali on God alone
Fond mothers. with faces pale,
Who moan, and hope, and pray;
Fond sisters and wives who SIT and weep
Their very lives away.
No blessing in that house
Nothing but faded hopes,
And ghosts of Joys that paled and died
On all life's snnny slopes
Sad memories of graves,
That we're too early made,
And fearful scenes Of death and woe,
That ne'er in time shall fade.
No blessing in that house;
Great God bend down thine ear;
Oh, hearken to thy children's cry,
And mark each falling tear;
Assert Thy righteous power;
Father Of Mercies, come,
And Danish FROM the homes of earth

PROHIBITION OF EVIL,


A great deal is being said and written
at the present time about license, or, in
other words, giving a man, for a certain
sum of money, legal right to destroy
the body and soul of his fellow men, and
thus get rich out of this traffic in life
and blood Do not write too strongly ?
No tits true. 1t is a sad, awful fact
Isn't rumselling crime? Yes, one of
the most terrible and acknowledging in
all the long, black catalogue Who dare
say it is not? Look at the results of
this dreadful traffic "Woe unto him
that giveth his neighbor drink, that put
teth the bottle to him, and maketh him
drunken" is the language of Gods
Holy Book, and yet men talk of lieens-
ing this great evil. Thou shalt not
kill, is the divine command. Isn't the
result of the traffic in millions of cases,
death /? Who gives legislatures the right
to put a price on the life Of that father,
son, OF brother, and then throw him into
the hands of the miserable rumseller
to partake of his liqued fire, and ht
hurried into eternity? A legislature put
the price for license to do this at 500
Nice business, isn't it? Selling human
ity for 500 into everlasting bOndag,
and eternal perdition mo drunkarC

Every licensed rumseller is legalized t
shut men out of heaven, by selling tina

devil in the finest broadeloth and ca
him a frst-olass saint. as to try to max
the selling Of rum respectable by givin
it license. Rum is Satan's machinery

IF BE IN CHRIST, WHAT THEN,


am safe, whatever this coming year
may bring; nay, my night is far spent,
my day is at hand. The wilderness is
nearly traversed: Canaan and Jerusalem
are almost within my view; the SUBMITS.
of the everlasting hills are already ap-
pearing. What manner of person, then,
ought / to be in all holy conversation
and godliness, looking and fastening
unto the coming of the day of God I? |
must press forward and so much the
more as see the day approaching, |
must be consistent and heavenly-minded,
so walking worthy of my calling, and
setting my affections on things above.
For what have l, who have crown in
prospect, kingdom in reversion, to do
with the vanities or pleasures of this
poor passing world ? My eye is above;
my treasure in heaven; shall not my
heart be>there also7 If am in Christ,
l must seek to be like Him, and to follow
Him more and more closely, as the night
is fastening to an end, and the day
about to break If | am in sorrow, |
shall call to mind that weeping endureth
but for a night, joy cometh in the morn
ing. If l am in comfort, must see
that this prosperity which God has CIV
en- me is making me hOlier man, and
a more self-denying worker for Him who
loved me and washed me from my sins
in His own blood. If ] am poor, / shall
rejoice that my day of wealth is just at
hand. If / am rich, shall take this
gold which the Lord has given me and
lay it all at His beloved feet. Mine
must be no half discipleship-no service
of two masters-no divided heart. The
night is far spent, the day is at hand.
What remains of this brief life of mine
must be given wholly to the Lord

FIRST BEER AND THEN POLITICS.

The political tactics Of the brewers
set forth in the following extract which
we quote from a speech by their Wash.
ington attorney and official representa-
tive, Mr.. schade, at the late Brewers
Congress in Cincinnati: ...- .
"Our dangerous enemies we must look
fer in one or the other Of the two great
political parties of the country. They
euaet and keep alive those atroeious pro-
hibitory, restrictive, and damage laws.
If we want to have those laws struck
from the statutes Of the various states,
or prevent the establishing of new ones,
We cannot do it in any other way than
by electing such men to the legislatures
who have not merely assured us. but Of
whom we otherwise know that they are
our friends and not our enemies. If we
find that one or the other political party
is against us, we must support the OPP
position party that is not against US.
The principle Of self.protectiOn must IN
such instance be our only guide. Tax
ing that position, noparty can afterwards
justly complain Of your no longer voting
for it. There is no political liberty pos
sible as long as you are denied personal
liberty. That party that will destroy
your business, considered as honorable
and legitimate throughout the whole civ
ilized world. will hardly ever concode q
you political rights worth having. What
do you care whether negroes ride in frs
class cars and are permitted to vote az
often as they please in Louisiana, if yov
have to close up your breweries and b
deprived at one blow Of your hard earn
ed property, the result Of a whole life
struggle? No. gentlemen, FIRST persona
and then political liberty First bee
and then politics. and if you are pru
dent and awake TO your own interest:
you can have both at the same time
without the one interfering with tn
other.
support that party that supports yOl
and 20 against that which wants to d,
strOy you. There is no middle way f,
you IN the great struggle"
Temperance voters will do we'll
learn we'll the significant lesson conveyC
above, and to apply it faithfully in Il
forthcoming elections

SERMON BY A CLowN.-The following
was preached by clown, in circus
that was exhibiting in a country town.
There is good deal of bitter truth in
it:
my friends, We have taken in about
six hundred dollars here to-day, more, l
venture to say, than any minister of the
Gospel in this town will receive for a
whole years service. A large portion
of this audience is composed of members
of the church. And yet when your
preacher asks you for money to aid in
supporting the Gospel, you say you are
too poor to give anything. Yet you come
hear to hear me talk nonsense. | am
a fool because | am paid for it; | make
my living by it. You profess to be wise,
and yet you support me in my folly,
But perhaps you say you did not come
to see the circus, but the animals; why
did you not look at them and go away
Why did you stay to hear my nonsense
Now is this not a pretty place for {
Christian to be in? Do you not fee
ashamed of yourselves? You ought Il
blush~tO be caught in such place a

The WATER OF LIFR.-It is recorded
in history OF man condemned to death,
that when he lay his head upon the
block the prince asked him if there was
any one petition that he could grant
him, and that all the condemned man
asked for was glass of water. They
went and brought him a tumbler of
water, but when he got it his hand
trembled 50 that he could not bring it to
his mouth. The prince said to him,
''YOur life is safe until you drink that
water" Immediately the man took the
prince at his word, and dashed the water
to the ground They could not gather
it up and so his life was saved. And
you can save your own soul by taking
God at His word. The water of life is
offered by Him to all-"WhOsOeyer will,
let him take Of the water Of life freely
Take it, take it now. and you will live.

TIMELY HINTS.

FLOWING FOR CoRN.-There is no bet
ter ground for corn than a well top
dressed sod. The nearer the blowing of
this can be brought to the time of plant
ing the better. The seed quickly germi-
mates in the moist fresh soil ; the cut
worms are busy upon the grass roots and
let the corn alone, and the weeds do not
start till the corn has had time to get
good growth and shoot ahead of them.
The quick growth is greatly helped by
some active fertilizer sown on the surface
and narrowed in lightly.
LIVE STooK.-To keep the farm ami
mails in good condition just now when
the fresh feed is coming in, requires
judgment and watchfulness. A sudden
change of feed is generally hurttul.
When an animal is found to be ailing,
it may be taken for granted that some
thing ia wrong with its food or manage
ment, and these should be at once looked
to for the cause, and the mischief avert
ed. 1t will be we'll not to turn the stock
out until they have been fed upon their
usual fodder, and aceustom them to green
food gradually.
Mich CoWs.-There is often disap-
pointment caused by falling off in milk
when cows are turned upon the new
grass and other food stopped. The young
grass is deficient in nutriment and too
watery. a good feed of cut hay and
mixed bran and meal given once day
will avoid this.
RooTs.-Mangels are undoubtedly the
best root crop for our climate. Upon
good soil, and when we'll cultivated,
thirty tons per acre may be grown easily
The earlier this month the seed is sowr
the better, but it is not worth while L
grow poor crop upon poor land. Sowr
in drills feet apart, lbs. of seed arr
required for an acre. When we'll up
thin out to II inches apart in the rows
Lanes improved sugar beet is a excel
lent root, requiring the same cultivation
as mangels.
