DEMOCRATIC MEANNEss.

A private letter was received BY o gen.

Thomas Wren. Nevada's Representative
in Congress. from which the following Is
an extract. Il will be interesting read

be the especial champion:
"Owing to Democratic meanness, all

lYrom the w~innemucca silver State. June H..
Porty-six men Of the Twelfth Infantry
arrived here yesterday from California and
left Immediately for tho north. under com
mand Of Major Egbert and Captain
Hurst. Tho men. most OF them fins.
soldierly BLOCKING fellows, started out on
foot to fight wsll.mounted and, accord

who know every pass. trail and defile In
the country, and ride, when on the wal
path, from thirty TO sixty miles O day,
Ii really looked like a burlesque to send
q few men afoot out into the wilderness,
where even water is scarce. to fight hos
tile Indians. Last evening q dispatch
was received from headquarters orler'
ing the command to retracs its steps Ia
the railroad and take the cars for Carlin,
where they are to join the three compa'

coed to the Duck Valley reservation.
north Of Bull Run. The absurdity Of
sending men on foot into the deserts OF
Nevada and Idaho to fight Indians, who
are raiding through the country and
travelling 80 fast that cavalry cannot get
within lighting distance OF them. must
be apparent to every military officer as
well A. civilian who knows anything
about the country.

II. =. Bates. who left Duck valley
last Friday and came across the country
from that place, informs us that when
he left the reservation at that place the
S~hoshones were more excited than the
whites. The Bannock ENJOYS had in
formed them that unless they joined
them in their wal against the whites.
they would kill every u Of them.
Neither whites nor friendly Indians had
arms, and they were almost wholly ut
tho mercy OF the hostiles, who were
probably not aware Of this, or they
would have executed their threats nj
once. In Bull Run valley settlers had
taken their wives and children to Cor.
nucopia, and the men were s~ndeavoring
to attend TO their crops, which require
their constant presence at this season OF
the year.

Wants to get Married.

As young bachelor residing in Jack
son, Nebraska, was sitting in his house
the other day, the thought suddenly came
to him that he might get married. 1t was
new though new inspiaatioa-and he
acted upon it at once. Rapidly revolving
in his mind the fact that IN order to get
married he nrust have the help of a female
lady-that it could be done in no other
way-he tinaly fixed in his mind upon
the one many damsels Of his ac9nsin
lance, who would be the future mistress
of his hopes and fortunes, The lady WAS
visiting In Sioux City and knew nothing
of the contemplated honor to be done her;
but that did not vex the yonng man at all.
He commenced arranging for house keep
ing just as though the whole business
was settled, and mortgaged his farm to Oh
tain the sum sufficient to purchase his
furniture Yesterday he came to Sioux
City and visited the various stores, pur-
chasing furniture and household utensils
to the amount Of $3.50, which he took
home with him.
The laly will bs in the city for several
days, snd will no doubt be astonished at
securing the offer Of an honest hear: and
hand upon her return. But it is thought
that she will accept and that the pair will
he man and wife very suddenly, and that
they will then settle down to enjsy the
plea s"res and the snnoyances of married
life to the best of their ability. The young
man says that if this particular lady re-
fuses him, he has made out list of all
the manageable ladies in his neighbor-
hood, and will 90 through the whole list
till he finds one who will have him. He
is plucky and we wish him success

The PenniIess Man.

Blessed is the man who is penuiless, for
he is never stricken-for dollar.
The deadhead annoyeth him not, neither
is he pursued by the pook agent
He IS not grssped by the lighting rod
seller. The lunch fiend turneth away
from him. The trinket vender passeth
him by. He is not asked to inves; in
church lotteries.
He hath no friends to "trcat; )" he is poor
and hath no enemies.
When he riseth in the morning his
stomach is not rebcllious from over feed :
ing; neither does h: chink his silver and
say: "How shall get rid of these dimes ,
When he eateth he is not vexed by
multitude Of dishes.
His lands will never take unto them
selves wing, neither will the fire dcvour
his water lots.
He is not perplexed about taxes neith-
er careth he for the rise in lumber.
He toileth not for gold, nor srateth like
Jones on silver.
He hath no ties for money, the refore
careth not to demonetize, nevertheless .
dime will he not refuse, nor turn away
from 1ve.center.
Yea, q gerkin wall he relish, and storm

He lovcth none but himself; he 10 sell

he not despise.
He makcth his lair in in barroom; he
squatteth on keg while it is day, and
sleepeth in barrel at night.
Where the scent Of whisky is, there he
is found: he snuffeth the lunch with fren-

Will celebrate the coming in of the
New Year by a general reduction Of To-
cal ticket fares from Fioe Cents to -Four
Cents, per mile on all divisions Of their
roads, to take effect January 1st, 1878.
1t appears from the official reports in
the Railroad Commissioners office that
these companies in more than twelve years
of operation have never killed or injured
any passenger or lost piece Of baggage.
Their express trains are equipped with
the Miller platforms, and Westinghouse
Automatic Air Brakes, and in everything
pertaining to the safety and comfort Of
ncctions, are not excelled BY any in the
country.
