McCAKTY's sTATISTICIAN.

We are the fortunate possessor OF copy OF
the Annual Statistician for 1877. All who
know and appreciate this invaluable work
recognize it as most able ana exhaustive
epitone of all the cyclopedias and like works.
while, also, combining in itself much
new and original matter, never before pre-
scented in work Of this character. 1t is but
lust to say Of Air. John r. MANS, the com
Tn;lar. that he has furnished forth the most
rromnlete condensation of all that is worth
knowing in the statistics Of the business, sci
entific, religious and political world ever pro-
duced in the United States; no merchant or
,rofasa;onal man. no mechanic or politician
can afford to be without it any more than he
can afford to be without dictionary. Mr..
Mecarty is, now in Carson and will remain
here a few days. The book recommends 1t
self too well to need any putting from us.

JQHy CRINAMAS VS.. TRAaP.-The Reno
Gazette of July IL has the following state
ment Of little unpleasantness between John
Chinaman and some knavish tramps;
Yesterday three tramps attempted to rob a
Chinaman at Verdi, but John, who has sui
fered from this little inconvenience several
times, made serious objections by plunging
his sticker into the neck of one of the chaps.
The wound inflicted is quite serious one,
but will not necessarily prove fatal The two
remaining worthless posted off to the Justices
Office, had warrant made out, and procured
the arrest of the belligerent Celestial I. V.
Julien has been employed to defend the I'M
fortunate Chinaman. 1t is said that the
tramps about Verdi make it a practice when
they find a Chinaman out alone to rob him.
The only regret is that John did not spill
little blood of the entire trio:
