EXCITEMENT AT RENO.

gentleman who came from Reno last ev-
ening informs us that the greatest excitement
continues to prevail there against' the two
men, Jones and Carson, who sent the fraudu-
lent letters to a lady in San Francisco, and
by promises of respectable situation in
duced her to go to Reno, their real object
being anything but honorable All classes in
Reno are exasperated, and ere this appears
before our readers, the scoundrels may have
been treated to coat of tar and feathers; in
fact, they will be in good luck if nothing
worse is in store for them. The lady whom
they tried to ruin is of the most pronounced
responsibility, recently from England. She
has one or more brothers residing in San
Francisco, who were willing to support her,
but being of an independent nature and de-
sirous of earning her own living, inserted an
advertisement in one of the San Francisco
papers to that purport. The scoundrels, Jones
and Carson, answered the same with the
object above stated If the good people of
Reno do not in the heat of excitement take
this matter in hand, it is to be hoped that the
courts will mote out to them the EXTREMIST
penalty the law prescribes for such villain
Gus and infamous crime.

GOOD TEMPLARS' BALL.

The Good Templars entertainment for the
relief of the yellow fever sufferers came off at
the Opera House last night. The attendance
was not as great as might have been wished,
still we have no doubt that the society will
net something for the good cause. The en-
tertainment was opened by Mr.. John Mack
who recited in an admirable style The Little
Hero" which was received with great applause.
Then Mr.. Robert Mckinley treated the au-
dience to q violin solo. Mr. T. F. Laycock
concluded this part of the entertainment with
another recitation. After this came the merry
whirl by good music, which was kept up until
late.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.

Attorney General kittrel, treasurer of the
funds collected at the Beecher services III this
city for the aid of the yellow fever sufferers,
Yesterday received letter from Thomas j.
Brogan, Esq of the Howard Association at
Grenada, Miss, acknowledging the receipt of
the money $50, and thanking, through him,
the good people of this city for their kind
ness. The check for this money was orig
inally directed to Col. B. p. Anderson, one of
the most noble men who ever lived, working
night and day for the relief of his fellow be
ings, who were stricken with the existing
fearful epidemic. At last he also fell victim
to the devastating scourge. He was taken
sick on the 18th of August, and departed this
world, where his noble actions have raised for
himself monument more durable than gran
lite shafts, on the I'd instant. The widow of
Col. Anderson received the check sent by
General Kittrell and handed the same to Mr..
Brogan to use for the purposes intended
This lady was also taken with the fever imme-
diately after the burial of her noble husband,
and was lying very low at the latest accounts.

INDIAN POKER. Indian poker games were
raging all over the town yesterday. Our red
brethren must have made a raise some where
or another, as they were all well supplied with
the necessary evil At one game there were
a number of white bucolic loOkers-o and
one of them ventured to ask an Indian player
whether he would be permitted to take a
hand in the game Theaccosted Indian looked
up from his cards and, scornfully measuring
the white man from head to foot, replied, in
excellent English: mo; this game is for
gentlemen, only" This was said in a tone as
full of contempt as would be employed by
Carson thoroughbred under similar circum-
stances. The pale face laughed, but subsidized.
ONE OF HIS ExCELLENCY's JOKES.-A few
days since Governor Bradley was discussing
the political outlook with some friends in
this city, when one of the gentlemen present
inquired of His Excellency if he would take
the stump during the campaign this fall The
Governor replied "Well, ma son, | guess
I'll not only take the stump but Use gwine
to take the whole tree" This is very ex-
celIent mot, but we fear that the old gentle
man will be disappointed, because we do not
believe that he will get splinter from stump
or trunk
HENRY s. DAY, ESQ, for many years Deputy
Surveyor General of this State, We learn, will
permit his name to be used before the Dem

the nomination of Surveyor General Mr..
Day is a thorough gentleman, and from long
experience familiar with all the details of the
Office, but we are afraid that all these COM
mendable qualifications will not aid him much,
as we are bound to have Surveyor General
of political complexion entirely different
from his.
