STATIONS OF hearty approval. His voice
| IS pleasing and sympathetic, his language
good and his style enlivening. Follow
| ing these exercises there was dancing
and supper, of which We cannot speak
from personal observation or participa-
ton, business rendering it necessary
that We should decline al invitation to
. remain after the close Of the literary eI-
ercises. About 100 persons were pre-
sent at the exercises above noticed.
UNIVERSAL REGRET. The news re-
ceived here yesterday tina. the House of
Representatives had refused to make the
usual appropriation for our Mint was re-
ceived throughout our town with express
sions of universal regret Men who are
il no way personally interested in the
operations of that institution were more
outspoken il their denunciations Of tie
House than those who have friends in
the Mint 1t will not occur, however,
as some Of the wittiest and w;sest Of
Storey County SOlons insist. that q
failure to appropriate two hundred and
odd thousand dollars for the support Of
this Mint Will cause the town Of Carson
to disincorpornte aid make of our stree.s
general grass-growins region for the
support Of the lowing herds Of this aaIi-
cultural section. Not this. by a long
way, The average Carsonite held the
Mint in higher esteem than any which
might be derived from the advantages to
be gained by the few paltry dollars to be
paid out here. All Of us hereabout love
the Mint because it is representative
of the sovereignty OF the government, !
and !or the additional reason that II has !
always furnished rs with the coin which |
has comprised our circulation. Our |
people see in this action of Congress the |
hand of the Central Pacific Railway, |
and the further hand Of Homer King,
the cashier Of Wells, Fargo K Co, who |
first brought some damaged trade dollars
which had passed through the Virginia
fire to tie attention Of a Treasury agent,
sent to San Francisco to investigate
Custom house affairs, and who hlew no !
more about coin from personal contact
with 1t Of late years than EOtteDtot
knows by personal experience Of the
warmth OF the dress Of an lceiander.
But the assault on the character and
of the coinage Of our Mint has
had the effect intended. At least the
action Of the House yesterday would H.
licate this. But the present House
would not care for short weight in a
rade dollar. What the majority of the
House want is .La Tag Eaay. 4: least
hat Is v lat our people think, he they
Democrats or Republicans.
