THE CLOUDS LIFTING.-For some
time past Spanish Belt district has
been under a cloud, but there are
favorable indications for a bright near
future. The two Barcelona companies,
we understand, have ordered from
New York the improved Ingerscll
drill for the purpose of use in running
the Joint 7x7 tunnel, now in a distance
of about $50 feet. The drill is daily
ex pected, and with its use it is conf
IDENTIFY hoped to have the tunnel COM
pleted to the Barcelona veins by De-
cember. As soon as the latter is ac-
complished the district will revive, as
there ia hardly a doubt but what a fine
body of ore will be reached in both of
the Barcelona locations. The drill al
luded to above is the same kind that
has been so successfully employed in
the Sutro tunnel.
In FULL FoRCE.-The right to the
water running through the agricultural
lands in Duckwater ana Currant creek
valleys, in this county, is to be tried in

GERMANY WANTS SILVER COIN
Eureka, October Is, 1876.

A significant and important dis patch
comes from London. 1t is to the effect
that it is proposed in Germany to submit
to the next German Parliament the pro.
priety of increasing the silver coinage
of the Empire, on the grounl that the
amount at present in circulation is in
sufficient for the purposes of com
MERGE. The attempt made by Ger
many to demonetize silver was Ger.
tainly ill-advised; and her sales Of
coin of that metal, while they worked
an injury TO every other nation that
produces silver or uses silver as money
have only worked distress to herself.
After the manner in which some per-
sons deal in stocks, she sold when it
was low, and win have to buy when
it is high, which serves her perfectly
right for attempting to force out of
been used as such for thou
sands OF years. The decentralization
of silver by Germany was the
principal cause of the decline in the
price of that metal, which, but a short
time age threatened ruin to the only
real interest of this State; and thu re-
consideration by that nation of her in
tention to thus demonetize it, will be
sure to have a wholesome effect in Ne
vada, by enhancing the price of silver
and renewing confidence in its stabil-
ity as a precious metal. We do not
know hat an additional coinage OF sill
yer for the purposes of circulation by
Germany means a determination to re-
consider the resolution to demonetize
it; but such a course indicates that she
has found put that silver is an actual
necessity, for change at least, and can
not be abolished or dispensed with as
currency by a mere official dictum;
and encourages the hope that that
country may in the not distant future
adopt the double-standard and make
silver a co-equal with gold.

PUBLIC DISCUSSIONS.

We have a great fancy, says the Car
son Appeal, for these debates. They
stimulate the speakers, interest audi
ences, and humanize the campaign.
If an orator undertakes to bamboozle
his audience, his attempt is quickly
detected and exposed. Several years
ago there was a most interesting debate
between the late ''Sandy" Baldwin and
General Tom. Williams. 1t was very
ably conducted on both sides, very
entertaining to the people and very
satisfactory to the Democrats and Re
publicans, who gathered in great
crowds to hear them. So of the de
bates between Charley Goodwin and
Kendall. By this method of treat
ment the people got not only the is
sues but the candidates presented to
them. We wish that this fashion Ol
dealing with the questions of the hour
might have been a feature of the pres
ent campaign.
These are exactly our ideas, and we
hope an arrangement will be made in
this county whereby the candidates Of
both parties will meet upon the same
stands in the principal precincts and
discuss from their respective stand
points the political issues of the day.
The Democratic candidates have ex-
tended an invitation to their opponents
to that effect, and, if accepted, the in
terest in the campaign will be greatly
enhanced upon both sides.

Last night, says Tuesdays Virginia
Enterprise, a Sierra Valley rancher,
named David w. Morris, on his way
home over the Geiger grade, after dis
posing of his produce, stopped at a
sheep ranch between the toll house
and the Five mile house. He was
afraid of robbers, as he had Sl6S i'll his
pocket. He was received hospitality
by two herders, and after smoking the
pipe of peace and good fellowship, all
three lay down to sleep without I'M
di essing. When Morris awoke he
found his entertainers gone, likewise
his money He fastened to Virginia
and informed Constable A. j. Smith of
his loss. This afternoon the Constable
succeeded in catching one of the al
legged robbers, named Daniel stephens,
and also recovered part of the prop
erty. The Sierra rancher will hereaf-
ter trust to his luck with road agents,
and avoid sheep ranches and friendly
herders.
On Tuesday last, the 10th instant,

NEW YORK, Oct. Is.
A Tribune's Washington special
says the South Carolina Republicans
are very much elaled. They predict
with great confidence that Hayes
will now carry both North and South
Carolina by large majorities. As to
North Carolina, Judge Settle, the Re-
publican candidate for Governor there.
has recently written here that nothing
can prevent that State from going Re-
publican except intimidation of the
colored vote. Settles greatest fear has
been The incursions of armed mounted
white liners from Georgia or South
Carolina. He SAYS that If these dis
turbances of the peace are averted the
State is certain to go for Hayes, as on a
fair ballot the Republicans have a ma
jority in that State. The South Caro-
lima delegation says if the rifle clubs
do not obey the Presidents proclama-
ton it may become necessary tn have
martial law proclaimed in one or two
counties. This result is not, however,
apprehended.

Sitting Bull has evidently mistaken
his vocation. 1t is true he is tolerably
handy with his scalping-knife and is
something of a success as a warrior;
but as a life insurance agent, a book
canvasser, or even a ward politician,
he would have attained an emincnce
which he will never reach as com
nander in chief of the hostile Sioux.
His i%mpudence in sending messen-
gers to a Government post TO ask per-
mission for his warriors to come there
and trade for ammunition, as reported
in a dispatch in yesterdays SENTINEL,
was a piece of diplomatic effrontery
which would have shamed an ambas
