The Death Of Hon. Chas. Z. DeLonG

Yesterday morning our citizens were
shocked by report that Charles E.
DeLong vas dead. This was followed
by a denial Of that statement; and We
all began to hope for better news; hu. q!
~ little after ii o'clock in the fore:
noon dispatch from Virginia City an
uounced his death. The public token
of eorrow-f.gs at half-mast from ali
public bui.din2s-t told how seusibly this
sudden bereavement wa> felt. OF the
cause Of his death, the Chronicle Of last
evening nays that it WAS a relapse of an
attack o: billions typhoid fever. He was
aiken sick. M our readers know, at &C.
nos, something more than three weeks
ago; and WAS conveyed to bis home in
Virginia City. Last Saturday he f-l'
well enough to be up and about the
house. Over exertion or some other
imprudence broush, on the relapse re-
ferred to. and yesterday morning, find
ing that n,s last hours were come, he
called his children aboat him and bn'ie
His WIG So'N:
bye. He br.ntLed his las: about IL
o'clock. OF his history. TO which some
brief illusions are mace on Onr editorial
page, the Chronicle says: Mr.. Del 'rg
was born in Beeks Evansville, Duchess
county, New York, August IL, 1882, and
he was q little over At years OF age"
The Gold Hill News says he wac born in
1884; and we think the after statement
10 the correct one. The Chronicle says
that tho remains vii, T. finally Uttered
in San Francisco; bu: ;iis is probably a
One Tor more) of his cbi!.
d'en lies ia the cemetery at M.rysviiie;
his brother in-lsw. the late n. +. White

following statement: The funeral vii

in the Fourth ward Of Virginia City on
Friday evening, November 3. As to
what this entertainment means, the En-

the sentiment of this whole city is
strongly 10 favor Of sustaining, 10 all its
purity aud strength, or free common

the limits Of our State. Why cannot
the differen: orders of the city turn ou'
in full repa!ia. With music aud with ban

not the MasOns. the Odd Fellows. the
military companies, the veterans of the
inte war. the Mexican war Veterans. the
Ola Pioneers. everybody make this oc-
casion one to impress itself upon the
community. All these orders aill turn

Tho INVISIBLE Vulcan.

The Herald discourses in the follow
ing playful fashion upon Mons. Lev
errier's planet:
The little intramercurinl wanderer
whom the astronomers are looking
for with their long telescopes and ac
custoned patience has not Yet re-
waried their labor by sailing across
the suns face. He Will be q very
small spot indeed when found, if he
ever gives the star hunters . chance.
The trouble is that the fact OF not
catching him this time will leave the
matter much as the late trial Of Bah.
cock left the safe burglary conspir-
acy. We know there must DO \
fraud sOmew here, but twelve men.
presumably "good and true" could
not find it in Baocock when they had
their eyes legally turned on him. So
with Vulcan. ut is an even chance"
says one saddened sky detective,
"that the transit should have taken
place a. night" ut could be done
behind the Clouds" says another.
We shall prove to the court" says
Leverrier, like bumptious district
attorney Of the universe, "that it has
taken place at the time stated" But
the witnesses contradict each other.
Some of them are suspected Of perjur-
ing themselves, others are said to be
led away by their lively imaginations,
so that the good fame Of the respect
atle god, Vulcan, is az much brought
in question AS if he had been caught
sending "Sylph" kilograms to Venus
under the very nose of old Jupiter
himself about the Whisky Rings
round Saturn, or found forging in
dorsements instead Of thunder-bolts.
All this time the lame old smith has
probably been minding his own bu-
> new prong on the
fish fork Of Neptune, mending Mi
nerva's spectacles, or putting fresh
edge on the scythe of Time. His in
who probably are not much
bothered about the price Of coal, know
nothing of the scientific worry they
are kicking up here. Their country
papers bear no alarming pictures Of
stoves or Ulster overcoats,
doubtless their advertise
men:s arc flaming oncs. The gas bills
are very light and the demon who
sells weather strips in this world
through the winter no doubt sells
lightning rods in Vulcan all the year
round. There every political can vass
is heated and tho most disappointed
office seeker is never left out ia the
cold. Whether in Vulcan the sun has
power to dissipate every haze that is
thrown on the country VIC cannot yet
state, but for the matter of that we
,annot say more for tho united efforts
n the same direction Of the sun and
he world we wot of until after the
election. Till then, like Vulcan, these
Kings will be in nubibus.
