The Russian deficit for the fiscal year
1878 Is about $40, 100000, nearly covered by
loan. The government has succeeded In
withdrawing from circulation the 4O0,000,oo0
paper roubes issued on account OF tho Turk
tsh war; and has obtained foreign loans Tor
that amount. Additional taxes on spirits and
tobacco are to be levied, and also an income
tax to meet the increased interest on the pub
lie debt, which hat been increased from
81 4O5 900 at the commencement OF the
war, to s1,91G,o0000o. The prompt payment
of the war indemnity by Turkey would help

jury In Paris, sent his brother jurors into &C.

little lecture on it. He said that he made HIM

should not one form collections Of curious
wines, as Of curious cups p he asked. They
were to be bought to keep up just apprecia-

to do honor to very eminent guest or to
submit to those whose taste and judgment
enabled them thoroughly to appreciate tue
wines.

In q trademark case on the twelfth instant.
Ierdersdorf i Co., tobacconsts, desired to

the trademark statute cannot be sustained
under the clause which gives to Congress the
power to regulate commerce among the sew

VOTERS AT SPRING CITY.

A communication from the Registry
Agent at Spring City appears ia an
other column. He denies that there
are any considerable number of persons
entitled to register in that precinct who
have no. syailed themselves of the
privilege There was no occasion
whatever for this denial. SO far as the
SILVER STATE was concerned, it did nos
even insinuate that the Registry Agent
had neglected his duty. 1t was re-
ported here that while there were only
les voters registered In the precinct,
there were three times that number OF
people there who, though citizens of
.ihe United States. were not entitled to
vote. because they had not been six
months in the State. This was not the
fault of the Registry Agent. and no.
body that We are aware of, accuses him
of neglecting his duties.

The shrewdest politicians cannot ar
rive at any definite conclusion AS to the
result of to morrow election inNeyads.
On this subject the Carson Tribune. a
Republican journal, has the following
which very nearly defines the situation
as it appears al this date:

and speak of what we know. There is
not man in Nevada, not even the
smartest Imported wirepuIler, who can

ton of any man of either party. outside
of Governor aud Lieutenant Governor.
This state of things Is all owing to the
chicanery pracficed at conventions.
