SHALL WE DISINCORPORATE}

We are convinced that there will be ali
effort made in the Legislature to repeal the
existing Act of municipal incorporation under
which our little city's affairs are conducting.
The MORNING APPEAL has always taken a
very decided stand in favor of maintaining a
town government here To dispense with it
now is to 60 back-to retrsgrade in the di-
rection of rusticity and meanness. There
are some obligations imposed upon It's as the
citizens aud neighborfolk of the Capital
There is q measure of refinement due from
US and our surroundings. To set the seat of
government back into the condition of COW
pasture and q swine pen is to do injustice
toward ourselves and our guests-the State
officers, the members of the Legislature and
our many visitors. The very condition in
which we find ourselves, that of the citizenry
of tho Capital, puts us under obligations of
decency and order. These can
not be maintained without municipal au-
thority Instead then CT lessening any of our
etforts toward the desired result, it becomes
us to strengthen our ends and purposes
NobIess oblige; and folk who are favored with
the distinction of Capitol keeping owe it to
themselves to keep their streets tidy, their
walks i'll good repair, their drains and cutters
cleanly and free and the face and fashion of
things outward neat and sweet and attractive |
And so, let us not disincorporate

A RUNAW AY.

Yesterday horse Whose crimlnality is of an
emotional nature), forsaking the then present
standing place of his duty, turned a quick
turn and broke cart and all, for Doc, Ben
toms stable. The superior quality of the
horse feed there dispensed to the expeotant
equine is thus proven. A horse once fed by
Benton or Benton's men become FESTIVE under
any restraint which keep him from his cpl
eurean manager, breaks loose wherever tethered

tFactive resort. But alas for his msdirected
zeal He was more Jealous than discreet. He
made short work of his invasion. BE did not
stop to ring or knock or say "by your leave. I"
One of Benton's horses-his pet grey, in short,
WAS in the way of this eccentric courser, and
incurred the force and impulse of his on surg
ing endesvor. Down went the grey, on sped
the eager runaway Some bruises were
oeived by the astonished grey, but his injuries,
happily, are not serious. This runaway beast
has done this trick, with notable suddenness
several times before. He seems to be seized
with momentary passion for finding his
stall and permits nothing to stand in his way
as he certainly stands not upon the order
of his going Here and there hitching- strap
for this eccentric animal, or prudent and
timely sale of him to some unsuspecting
farmer would be judicious. it seems to us.

CARSON THEA7ER DAMAGED BY FIRE-Ou
Sunday morning while the devout citizens OF
this city were in church, the town was
startled by a general alarm of fire. The fire
was found to be in the Carson Theater build
ing, and although of short duration and do
ing little damage, created as much excitement
as would conhagration of the first magni-
tude. The actual damage done to the build
ing has not been ascert2ined, but the insur-
ance men are at work, who will soon figure it
building in Carson, and has been the scene of
many pleasant evening 8 entertainment, but
We suppose that, like lives, even buildings
must come to an end, and the old theater did
have close call on Sunday. Mr. J. Q. A.
Moore, the owner, told US that he has paid
enough insurance premiums on that property
to have built him first class stone building,
and We believe it
ARRIvALs.-The following passengers ar
rived on the southern stage on Sunday even
ing : Edwin Clark, L. Clement, John Thomas,
W. II. Allen, Joe Ditchey, B. W. Pyle, c.
Ferguson and wife. The following passengers
arrived on the southern stage last evening

SToeKs.-There was frightful deprecia-
ton in stock values yesterday. Sierra Ne
vada dropped very nearly 80 per cent from its
closing prices on Saturday, and the other
securities fell in proportion, through sym
patty. 1t is stated upon the best of author
ity that this depreciation is an inside bear job,
and not owing to an unfavorabls condition of
the mines.
SAD DEArH-Early on Sunday, George.
the four year old son of Mr. and Mrs George
ellison of this city died very suddenly.
Georgia WAS a very beautiful and intelligent
BOY, whom everybody greatly admired. We
warmly sympathize with the afflicted parents
IN their sad bereavement.

SCIENTIFIC PERsoHAL.-Mr William Elm
beck, one Of the most cultured and scientific
members of the United States Coast Survey
on this coast, by invitation, called to see us
last evening. This gentleman visits Carson
10 make arrangements to store some valuable
instruments, belonging to the survey, in the
Mint building for the winter, and to consider
the feasibility of making this the starting
point for a geodetic survey across the CONT
aent next year !; that is, from the Sierra Ne
yada to the Wasatch Mountains. Operations
for the winter have been suspended, but will
be resumed next June, when, in all proba-
bility, Mr. Einbeck will organize his party
here. This gentleman has been connected
With this important branch of the Govern
ment service since 1870, and has been sta
toned on the Pacific Coast for the past five
years. Mr. Einbeck appears to be more
thoroughly familiar with the details of the
service with which he is connected than any
gentleman we have met for many years. He
leaves for San Francisco tonight, and thence
goes to Washington, where he will pass the
winter. We trust that his deliberations will
result in his returning here to organize his
party, as he at present contemplates doing.
A WORTHY YOUNG MAN.-Master Willie
Oowsn, youth about 16 years of age, and
grandson of the late Col Abe Curry, who is
employed in Wells, Fargo & Co. s Office In
this city, is worthy of more than compE
mentary notice in these columns. This youth
is during the whole day engaged at his bus
mess in the express Office, but in spite of that
fact, he has in the last few months, in his
leisure hours, with his own industrious hands,
built an addition to his mothers residence In
the northern portion of the city, which would
reflect credit upon the workmanship of many
master carpenter. We hold Master CoWan
40 As an example for the youths in Carson to
initiate He does not idle away his precious
time, but devotes it to something profitable,
Such boys are certain to make their mark III
the world and for whom all honorable man
hood is in store
Too BAD.-Hank Monk complains that he
has had less passengers OF = guilable nature
travelling with him to and from Lake Tahoe |
during the past season than at any time since |
he has been on the route. He says, to
use his own language, "lf don't get rid of
some of my accumulated lies before the Log
ialature adiourns, I'll bust sure We think
he is right. because he can fill up with the
most outrageous lies faster than any man in
the State.
PERsoNAL.-Captsin Stephen Moore, for
merly superintendent of the Bodie mine. and
one of the most reliable and honorable min
ing men on this coast arrived here yesterday
bound for the southern country. /

THE STATEN TSL1YD HORROR.

Now that coil of evidence is winding itself about
a miserable wretch who seems to know whose dead
body was thrust into a barrel aud hidden In the
woods by Silver Lake, and how il came tn be dead
body, good easy people saying to one another
in satisfied way that Murder will out"
But unfortunately the Staten Island horror
will yield such comfortable moral, even
if the murdered woman is identified and her
murderer brought to Justice. The most depressing
reflection in regard to this particular crime is sHg
gestcd by the fact that already the world knows OF
three unfortunate women who havo been lost to
their friends and whose condition and relations
we're such at this particular time to
make it not Improbable. at least, that they had
come to a violent death. Three youIfg women, we
know of, whose forms and features were not unlike
those found in the Staten Island woods besides
bali dozen Others, whose friends the authorities
say, have been to make inquiries and have been
convinced by some ghastly description of teeth or
hair that this was not their dead.
Nor sths solitary ease. 1t is one Of several
which prove that if, at any time and in any place.

many missing ones whose death by yio-
lcucc just then aud there is not unlikely.
When man is missing the newspapers and police
are at advised. and vigorous and open search
for him is at once begun. When yonng woman s
missing under certain circumstances her immediate
friends mako no sign, and feelings of dehcacy seal
the lips Of her ncghbors Of course, they are not all
murdered but we know enough TO know how many
are subjected to tho risk of death. And where are

ton. Nobody will deny that Brick POM
eroy has been one of the conspicu-

the most ultra cOpperheads of the war have
been his foremost allies in pushing 1t into
prominence, and that the publications issued
from the headquarters of the National Green
back party in Chicago are the fair exponents
of their purpose. Here then (taken from
Greenback tract " Hot Drops, No. 6") Is

SOME MORE CIPHKRS.

There is no peace for the wicked. If the
Florida conspirators have fancled that the
meaning of the few untranslated ciphers
would remain forever hidden from the public
eve. they are doomed to another disappoint-
,nent. There were but few, and early in the
study of the ciphers it was inferred that the
dispatches in the Dictionary CIPHER" from
Florida, at least, were OF minor Importance,
either because from persons not trusted with
the graver secrets, or because that cipher is in
fact less trustworthy in transmission and less
safe for cOncealment than others used. When
once the right dictionary Is found, lit
tie patience will quickly 6c rewarded
by the translation of cipher of
that sort. Nevertheless, it seems that Mr..
Tilden even now employs "a dictionary cipher
to communicate with his lawyer in the Mar
duette Iron Mine business. By dcducting
1000 from the registered number of amy cipher
word used in these kilograms, the word IN
tended will be found In Slater's Ielegraphlc
Code. In the Oregon business as has been
shown. the English Household Dictionary

ida dispatches. But any one can translate
for himself such Of these dispatches as are

other to PeltOn. dated November 27, reads
"Serrate self will terra-cOtta Albumen !" which
being interpreted signifies, "Send second tele-
"gram again." To ascertain the meaning of
any word in the above, and some other diction-
airy cipher dispatches hitherto untranslated, it
is only necessary to find the word in Web
"ster's Pocket Dictionary" to count the
number OF the word from the top of the
column, and to find the corresponding word
in the corresponding column on the preceding
page. In some of these dispatches, again,
the solution is found by turning backward
two, three, four or five pages.

of the highest importance. some of them very
