OUR DEAD CARRIER.

The small circle which has made up the
working family of the MORNING APPEAL print
ing Office has been suddenly and most VIC
lently broken As useful young life as ever
vas known III Nevada has been sacrificed
The manner of our faithful carrier death was
as shocking as the deadly assault which took
his life was cruel and unexpected His in
dustry and perseverance were heroic He
was determined not only to learn the printer $
art but to make thai the aim and central OBJ
ject of his daily life. He was bent upon Civ
ing his best work and faculties to the help of
his widowed mother He had the moral cour-
age to stand by an early determination to
make a man OF himself. His sturdy and I'M
dcmonstrative personal valor and true manli-
ness cost him his life. There is deep and
abiding sorrow for Albert's loss but in the
life that went away SO suddenly and serenely
there was 5 "a ich that was sterling and ad-
mirable, tina, as.r grief for his departure is
much assuaged by our admiration for the pu-
rity of his aims and purposes and the calm
manliness of his walk and work.

LETTER FROM MARIETTA.

MARIETTA, NEVADA, June LIST 1873.
Ed, APPEAL: During the last few days an
excellent body of ore has been struck on the
| fourth level of the Endowment from the cross
| cut, the lode being four feet wide, assays
| across the face averaging S155 per ton; the
drift since this body was struck has been run
several feet The ore body seems to widen
and improve i'll quality, while upon the fifth
level yesterday the same indications were
found In a few days cross cutting on this
level viii be commenced, This new body Of
ore is similar to that found on the groupings
at the surface. the formation being broken.
1t is pitching east and is located some three
hundred feet easterly from the rich body Of
Suphuret ores and near the center of the
hill. The new mill is rapidly approaching
completion, and iii few days our little camp
will be sending it's quota of bullion. Right
upon the heels of this important discovery
comes another strike of an ore body in the
Combination, an adjoining niue on the same
lead within 300 feet of the Endowment east
line, OF a vein Is inches wide, carrying al
average of $50 per ton. The Black Hawk
and Greyhound mines on the same hill are
steadily turning out their daily yield Of high
hundred tons OF good ore upon the Endow-

COAL IN ELKO COUNTY.

In an article upon - The Coal Deposits Of
Elko County" in the Times Review of Satur
day, (wrltten, we suspect, by Mr.. W. F.
Stewart), we End the following interesting
statement:
Along the southern and southwestern Dor
der of this county, the fossil reIuanS evidently
belong to the upper Deyonian, a comparative
ly recent period to that above described, and
it is therefore possible that coal i'll workable
strata and of excellent quality may exist in
that region; In fact narrow strata Of good coal
have already been opened on the route be-
tween Carlin and Pine Valley, and at a point
some miles north of Mineral Hill In the
bluffs near Carlin there is tremendous bed
Of Jet black bitumnous shale, varying i'll
thickness from ten to fifty feet, which posi-
bly, may be the true indicator of a tirst-class
coal bed. The Carlin shales burn readily and
yield sufficient heat to weld steel or iron, bat
after combustion always leave a heavy residu-
INN of clay, while the Elko shales burn to a
clear ash

Sixty years through shine and shadow,
Sixty years, my gentle wife,
You and have walked together
Down the rugged paths ollie.
From the hills Of Spring we started,
And through all the Summer land
And the fruitful Autumn country
We have journeyed hand in hand.
We have horne the heat and burden,
Toiling painfully and slow;
We have gathered in our harvest,
With rejoicing, long ago.
Leave the uplands for our children;
They are strong to SOW and reap;
Through the quiet Winter lowlands
Our own level we may keep.
We have had our time of sorrow,
And our time of anxious fears,
When we could not see the milestones
Through the bli dness of our tears;
Cheer thee. cheer thee faithful hearted;
just little way before
Lies the great eternal city
OF the King that we adore

A Cheap Commodity.

Advice is cheap, consequently, many
people are fond of giving it away. eff
he had only taken my advice" says Mr..
Wiseacre, things might have been
different. True, they might have been
much worse. For do we not all know,
or believe we know, our own affairs, our
own necessities, our own desires, better
than any other mortal can ever know
them, ven though that other may be
our most intimate friend? And no mat
ter how unreserved our confidence, how
frank our admissions regarding the cir
cumstances in which we are placed, will
there not always be some point or points
on which we cannot be fully explicit to
any human carr So, even while we inn
agine that we have perfectly explained
our own position, or have as perfectly
comprehended the situation of another,
some detail will always be wanting,
whose omission changes the whole case I;
perhaps makes the counsel which seemed
so iudicious entirely impracticable.
Don't worry yourselves, then, over the
good advice so often wasted on your
friends, but try to remember that as
you never can occupy their exact stand
point. SO you never can be an infallible
Judge OF their proper conduct. To be
sure, In some cases, your advice may be
necessary; give it then humbly, not ar
rogantly, and be content that it is &C.
cepted even with reluctance; for advice,
! at best, is nauseous pill to swallow.

ton. The plucking has to be endured
by the victim twice a year; that is, the
tail, and the primary wing feathers,
which are the only white ones, are
plucked, and also the secondary wing
feathers, these being the black ones,
which are valuable, but not so much so
as the others. When the harvest of
plumes has been collected they are
taken into the feather room and sorted
into lots of various qualities. The
white primary rim from under the birds
wing produces the best plumes. These
are frequently sold for as high price as
S125 per pound.
In spite OF the difficulties to be con-
tended with, MIR. Douglass has been en-
abled to make ostrich-farming in his
own particular case q complete success.
AS said elsewhere, there are now at his
establishment about 800 birds, which,
counting both young and old, are worth
about $3.50 apiece. These produce on
an average feathers to a value of S75
per annum. The labor about the place
is performed by coolies, except that
which falls to the lot of the owner and
two or three young men who are with
him and are learning the work under
his instruction, The coolies live each in
his own hut with his wife and family.
They receive a sum amounting to about
81 per month and rations; these consist
of two pounds of meat and two of mealies
a day. He is also given permission to
build his hut upon the place and to
burn his masters fuel. Coffee he may
buy from his masters store, provided he
desires the luxury.-Harper's Weekly.

A Brilliant Mans Sad Story.

He came into the editorial rooms of
the Tribune about noon to-day, poor,
shattered, tattered victim of rum. He
had been journalist, published a
magazine, been prosperous and success
ful, was college graduate, had been
successful in business, held public Office
in another State and had, between the
ages of sixteen and twenty-eight, lived
life in itself. He had turned from the
business of publishing magazine to the
travelling representative of wholesale
liquor house, and the appetite had grown
upon him. Whisky, he said, had got the
better of him, but DR.. D'Unger was ex-
perimenting with cinchonia upon him,
and he had new hope. He wanted work.
Would the city editor try to find it for
him ? He would, but cinchonia must
work its perfect cure first. And then he
told the story of his ill-spent life, while
his nerveless hands and arms trembled
in the tattered sleeves of his faded coat.
He had new hope, he said, and felt that
there was new life dawning upon him.
Beneath his old coat and dirty shirt there
was energy and ability yet. he continu-
ed, if he could only break loose from the
evil that had beset him. Would the
editor like poem =? The editor would
see after it was written, and then he
scratched off the following in a legible
hand:
HOPE.
Tis dark, stormy night, yet over life's ocean
meteor bright through the darkness appears
AS chips that are saved from the billows COM
motion,
Or stars that shine out through the hearts
bitter tears.
And this bright star will guide me while all else
is ieeting,
While friendship may change and kind for
tune fail,
As hope for home where bright sun is
beaming,
Unknown to cloud and meier swept by a
gale.
To the bright star of Hope DER my pathway now
beaming.
| A guide to my boat over the dark ocean wild
When I think of home where a sad mother
dreaming
So often beholds the loved form of her child.
"ToMMY."
Would the Tribune publish it? Yes
He would come again and his case would
be examined, and he went out pitiable
specimen of ability, education and ener,
gy FRUSTRATED by the excessive use Of
liquor. -Minneapolis (Minn.) Tribune
