SUNsHINE.-Did you ever notice what
different aspect everything wears in
the sunshine from what it does in the
shadow? And did you ever think what
an analogy there was between the sun
light of the cloudless skies and the SUM-
shine that CLEANS into the darkened
chambers of the human soul How
bright and beautiful are the golden
beams that break the riven clouds to
tighten up the world again after sue
cession of dark and stormy day. How
happy and peaceful are the blissful
words Of hope and cheer that touch the
heart and fill the soul with emotion of
peace and joy after long period of sOr-
row There are none living who do not,
| in a greater or less degree. have an in
Huence over the earthly happiness of
others. The scene Of contributing to
the pleasure Of others augments our own
happiness. Unselfshness. Christian char
ity and loving-kindness are sunbeams of
the soul.

THE SONG SPARROW.
BY WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT.

Birds Of the doorsidel warbng clear
In the sprouting or fading year,
Well art thou named, from thy own sweet lay
Piped from paling or naked spray.
As the smile Of the sun breaks through
Chill gray clouds that curtain the blue.
Even when February bleak
Smites with his frost the travellers cheek.
While the air has no touch Of spring.
Bird OF promise we hear thee sing
Long ere the FIRST rathe blossom wakes,
Long ere the earliest leaf-bud breaks.
April passes and May steals by;
June leads I'm the sultry July;
Sweet are the wood-notes, loud and sweet,
Heard from the robins and hang birds seat
Thou, as the green months glide away.
singest with them as gayly as they.
August comes and the melon and maize
Bask and swell in his fiery blaze;
Swallows gather. and southwark bound
Wheel like whirl-blast round and round,
Thrush and robin their songs forget,
Thou art cheerfully warbling yet.
Later still. when the sumac spray
Reddens to crimson day by day,
When in the orchard. one by one,
Apples drop in the npening sun,
They who pile them beneath the trees
Hear thy lay in the autumn breeze.
Comes November, sullen and grim,
spangling with frost the rivuets brim;
Harsh, hoarse winds from the woodland tear
Each brown leaf that is clinging there;
Still art thou singing amid the blast,
"soon is the dreariest season past"
Only when Christmas snow-storms make
Smooth white levels OF river and lake,
Sitting the light SHOWS all day long.
Only then do we miss thy song,
Sure to hear IL again, when soon
Climbs the sun TO a higher moon
Late when the sorrowing sonth wind brought
Tidings of battles fercely fought.
Tidings Of hosts in war array,
Marking with graves their bloody way;
Still vert thou singing near my door,
"soOn is the stormest season DER"
Even thus sing cheerfuIly on,
Bird Of Hopel as in ages gone,
Sing Of springtime and summer shades,
Autumn's pomp when the summer fades,
Storms that fee from the conquerIng sun.
Peace by enduring valor won.

THE NEXT GOVERNOR.

Some of the correspondents Of papers
outside of our State, in the lull of rail-
road wars and murder cases, seem to be
trying to get up the Governor question.
1t will be difficult, however, to arouse
any very active interest in the subject
among the people, for some months to
come. We are still in the ".off year" of
State politics; and the voters will not
seriously bother their, heads with the
''claims" and desires of aspirants, or at
tempt to concentrate their own prefer
ences, till the time for choice is con-
siderably nearer. Of course there is
some "talking up of possible candida
cies, mainly confined thus far, to names
which have been to a greater or less ex-
tent brought forward in previous can
vases, Judge Pierpoint has been talk
ed of before. Everybody who knows
the Judge respects him; and when he
is brought forward in earnest by his
friends, with his own consent, and not
simply as means to make a vacancy
in the Supreme Bench of our State, he
will doubtless be a strong candidate.
When Colonel Proctor, of Rutland, was
nominated for Lieutenant-G Governor, it
was with a strong feeling on the part of
many that he. would make first-rate
candidate for Governor, when the time
came and it is not at ali unlikely that
the time may come next summer. Hon.
sometimes talked of for Governor, and
his enemies, if not his friends, are at
work for him now. Hon. Bradley Bar
low, of st. Albans, has friends who
would have been glad, in former years,
to make him Governor, and who may
think that they waited about long
enough before trying his chances in
earnest. The same may be said of Col.
N. T. Sprague, of Brandon. There are
however, as yet no outward signs of a
canvass for any of these, or any one else
and it would be folly to begin one now.
There could hardly be a surer way to
kill candidate than to commence now,
or shortly, an open canvass for the nom
ination. There will be time enough fol
all that next summer.-BurlingtOr1

LARKIN'S

from the Virginia Chronicle. January 18th. ]
Last night the scaffold upon which
Larkin is to be executed was received
from Carson. 1t is complete in every
respect, new, and warranted to serve
its purpose we'll. This instrument of
the laws revenge is being put up to-
day by the carpenters, and its stays,
bolts and cross-beams become objects
of morbid interest in the eyes of hun
dreds who so TO look at it. Only the
chosen few, however, are admitted,
aud the outsiders try vainly to
catch a glimpse of it through the
cracks in the boards. The place has
been covered over so completely that it
has the darkness of a tomb. When
one gets acquainted to the gloom the
interior seems like a cellar dug out Of
the embankment.
Most men when standing upon the
drop and confronting death, have a
patch of blue sky or sunlight to cheer
them in their last mental agonies.
Larkin will have none. On two sides
a wall of earth, and on the others brick
and wood; overhead, rough boards
covered with snow, which shut on
everything. The scatfold occupies a
orner 1t is eight feet from ground to
Inc platform, anu AS many more lrotl
the platform to the beam. The trap,
when liberated by a lever, opens down
ward and sideways, and strikes against
a padded upright, which deadens the
sound-a delicate respect shown the
condemned, also the crowd. The man
will fall four and one-half feet before
the rope tightens. The rope is n inch
in diameter, with the usual hangman's
knot at the end, WHICH will be care
fully looped to make the moose run
easily. The black cap is now made,
and the straps which are to pinion the
condemned mans arms and legs are
also in readiness. The prisoner will
be taken from the Jail in a close car
riage and driven up to the space
which lies between the Snug saloon
and the Cours.house. A fence will be
erected across the entrance of space,
to keep the crowd from pressing in and
clamoring at the entrance. Passes will
be issued by the Sheriff to a few per-
sons who have a right TO be there, and
the execution will be as private as
possible.

AT THE FURNACES.

The enormous Stag piles that grace
the neighborhood OF our furnaces
stand in the same relation to our
mines as the tailings of the stamp
mills do to the free milling ores, with
this n unfortunate difference, that,
while the tailings can be reworked
cheaply aud the precious metals ex-
tracted, no process can do the same for
the Stag at a rate that will give any
profit. The Stag pile represents a
waste OF from eight to ten per cent. on
all the ore smelled, and carries quite q
percentage of lead and silver. 1t is
roughly estimated that the dump at
the Eureka Consolidated contains at
least 81 600, 900 of the precious metals,
and the Richmond as much more. As
great quantities of this material has
been used to fill up our streets we can
boast that they are literally paved
with silver, aud we doubt not but
that a sample Of dirt from Main street
would yield a good assay. Our citi.
@ n are familiar with the picturesque
sight at the furnaces where the mol
ten stream is constantly pouring into
the iron pots from the hearth. The
specific gravity Of The lead and its af-
finity for silver carries those metals TO
the bottom of the furnaces. On the
top of these float the melted iron, and
again on that metal swim the lighter
impurities of the ore, consisting of
silica, etc., and technically termed
Stag. The heart. is provided with two
spouts, II some three inches higher
han the other. The top spout is con-
tinually running and carries off the
Stag, which is wheeled away and forms
the principal component ofthe dump
pile. AT intervals The lower spout is
tapped. the melted iron ran off, and
the cubical castings that ornament the
surface of the Stag piles are the result
OF this operation. The smelters eXer-
else great care in handling the iron, as
in cold or damp weather the least
moisture coming in contact with 1t
will produce a violent explosion, scat
tering the molten mass in all d:rec-
tons. At the side OF each furnace
there is a receptacle, called a lead well,
communicating with the bottom of the
furnace by a pipe running into 1t. The
melted lead runsi into the well through
this pipe and Is ladled out into mods,
forming bars, averaging lis pounds in
weight. This is the base bullion in a
form ready for refining. The time
may possibly come when the refuse
of the furnace can be utilized, and re-
worked, but AT the present cost Of
smelling there is nc probability OF
snch a process. In the meantime. it a
be used to grade and repair the streets,
and its merits in that direction are too
important to be overlooked.

that light, aud insisted upon their pay

MORE MINING LITIGATION.

cit never rains but it pours," and
the commencement of suits against
the Richmond Company seems to
have been the Inauguration of a sea-
son of mining litigation.
Yesterday a suit was brought against
the Silver Lick Consolidated mining
company, i'm the District Court, by
James Adams, and an order applied
for by plaintiff was granted by Judge
Cole, restraining the conveyance of
any of defendants property. A suit
was brought some time ago by one of
the trustees of the company against
the company in the Storey County
District Court, a judgment by default
entered and the property of defendant
levied on. To-day, The time allowed
for redemption, will expire, and on
this account the order was granted.
Captain Adams has a suit against the
trustees of the comany for an account
ing now pending in one of the courts
in San Francisco. The amount sought
to he recovered is 500, 200.
Another nit against the Richmond
will also be brought, this time with
the st. Lawrence Mining Company as
plaintiff. 1t will be brought to quiet
title to the Selkirk and another mining
claim, being the same property in
which j. ID. Ernersley figured conspic-
uously with some time since.

Demonstration.

A party of Italians on North Main
street, yesterday morning, before the
departure of the train, were making
the air hideous with their bowls and
drunken demonstrations. One OF their
countrymen was leaving for the sunny
land, and they were evidently giving
him a good send-otf. The cramped
confines of Il saloon were too small Tor
their exuberant feelings, and they ad-
iourned to the street, formed a process
sion, headed by an accordion player,
and escorted the departing one 10 the

train left. If noise is any symptom OF
regret we should judge that it was a

surprise and chagrin that the matter
