A SAD SIGHT. Yesterday there passed
through the streets of Genoa a wagon con-
tanning an afflicted and sorrowing family. On
the front seat the father and mother and in
the wagon one dead child and two sick
with the diphtheria. The name we learn was
Temple on their way from Diamond Valley to
Carson or Empire. 1t was indeed a pitiable
sight and one to cause the stoutest heart to
bend Apropos of the fearful ravaging of
this disease, now that it is our midst, parents
cannot be too careful in watching over their
little ones and using every means to prevent
its spread. Toe many homes have been made
desolate, too many vacant high chairs remain
| to pass our warning as inopportune

hibition of their gallantry by taking all the
nice young ladies out in their handsome
cutters, will be a tight freeze and an ad-
ditional fall of the atmospheric cotton
