NEGLECTED. = The members of the
noble fraternity of stiffs, otherwise old
buns, who we're the recipients of
marked attentions from candidates,
before election, are now neglected and
there are none SO poor to do them rev.
erence. Ono of them was summing
himself on the sidewalk, On Main
street, yesterday, and soliloquizing
thus: "Alas! how things hev' changed!
Twas but a few short days ago, and
stimulants were free as the air we
breathe. Then, a. Teller would come
along and say: old man, your lookin'
powerful dry; come and take sathin'?'
To-day I set here and they pass me by
as if | was nothin' but a tumble-worm
a crawlin' in the dust. They ha'nt
none on 'em got any use for my vote
now. Why can't the campana contin.
ner right along without interruption?
Thar amt no use talkin'; things is
chopped since the good old days"
SILVER AWAY UP.--It is with con-
siderable qualification that we an.
nounce that silver touched 81 pence
per ounce in London yesterday, open
ing at 52I pence and closing at 81
pence. AS the prosperity of all silver
mining communities depends so
largely on the price of that metal, this
news is almost as cheerful as would be
that of the positive election of our par
ticular choice for President. Judging
from the differencein the opening and
closing quotations there must have
been a great deal Of activity to the
market, and a strong demand.
THICK,-The fumes from the Rich
mond furnaces settled thickly over the
town last evening, and the smoke was
so dense that it was with great Difficult
ty that pedestrians could force their
way through it. One lady got stuck
in it so hard and fast that it was found
necessary to amputate her pack saddle
before she could be extricated. The
odor given off was similar to that
which would arise from a thousand
barrels Of rotten eggs struck by light
ming.
On THE WRONG SIDE. - The de-
feated candidates for county Offices on
the Democratic ticket all positively as
sert that they were slaughtered in the
house OF their friendS-beaten by DEM
ocrats. On the other hand, the de.
feated Republican candidates claim
that they got nearly enough Demo-
cratic votes to elect them, but that
their Republican friends threw off on
them. If they speak the truth they
ought to have been or the other ticket.
APATHE TIC-Since the election, peo-
pie seem to have lost all interest in the
stock market. Instead Of saying,
["How's stocks?" they ask. "Any news
from the East?" They rush into the
telegraph office, take a hasty glance at
the list of quotations., ask the operator
If there is "Any latter news?" and
then out again on the street to discuss
the situation and declare that it's the
dog-gondest closest election they have
ever heard Of.
CASES CONTINUED. - The case of r.
Kern, charged with disturbing the
peace, and " Rather" charged With
misdemeanor, were called in Justice
Beatty's court, yesterday, and the me-
cessary officers not being present, were
continues: Rattler's to 10 o'clock this
morning and Kern's to l o'clock this
afternoon.
The PILE-DRIvER. - The Railroad
Company's pile driver is in operation
a short distance above town, and at
tracts considerable attention. A de-
feated candidate formed one of the
crowd of spectators, yesterday, and, as
he gazed upon the machine, he sadly
remarked: /" wish l vas a pile"
MRS. BAILY's CONDITION - Mrs.
D. e. Baily, who was thrown from q
wagon last Tuesday, was resting easy
yesterday, and it is thought that her
| Injuries would not prove serious. She
was injured internally somewhat. but
her attending physician does not think
that these injuries are very severe.
