Col. w. w. DELACY and G. A. Kellogg
passed through town last week with a corps
of men EN- route for the Muscleshell to COM
plete last years contract. The party will
perhaps only be gone about two months.
This seems a little early to start on such an
expedition, but the weather is so fine that
we doubt that if they have any severe
storms to encounter.

A FEW days since j. ". Stafford sold his
thoroughbred bull, the I'd Duke of Clay. to
Len Lewis for 500. This bull was import
ed by Swaringer, and is recorded in the
American Herd Book. He cost Mr.. STAFF
ford $500 when a yearling. He is a very
fine animal is low to the ground, though
lengthy and compactly built; he has a nice
clean bone, beautiful arm, and shows as fine
a front as any bull in the Territory. His
brisket, is without any exception, the best
we have seen. The only objection to him is
his color, which is light roam.

AS the evening shadows of March Is, be-
gan to close in upon the town, the spell of
quietude was broken by a commotion quite
unusual. The banging Of the doors, the
rattling of the feet of busy denizens rushing
to and fro, was a convincing evidence that
some important event was about to trans
pire. What could it be? some national day ?
some victory to commemorate? a birth in
some royal family? The polished boots,
fine cloth suits, standing collars and green
neckties that flashed in the light OF the
moon, seemed to indicate even more than
this-the coming Of the day of the birth OF
Ireland's Patron Saint, was to be greeted by
the devotees Of te%rpsichore. An hour flew
quickly by, and those very acceptable per-
sonages for which SO many hearts yearn
and anxious eyes are glad to gaze npor,
had not come. "They will come!-
will bring them, I know he will,' was the
chatting about the street corners. But an
other hour was fast passing into eternity,
and the anxious neutrality-suspicious. grew
pale as if about to despair, when a bright
eyed comrade broke the silent circle that
had formed in front of the HUsBANDMAN
office, with the query, "who got up this
dance, anyhow to which 10 one seemed
competent to answer. One said it was an
nounced in the paper, but the foreman de-
MED. The "devil" had set up the item, but
the author was not known, and the editor
had no recollection OF it. Just then youth
whose thoughts must have been wandering
valleywards, said: Its at the Confederate
schoolhouse they are going to dance"
I" think so, too, and we'll not be ontdone
let's 60" In two minutes more all were
aboard. and a merry crowd they were.
| Over the boulders and down the canyon
went the wagons,-"A Starry Night for a
Rarnble,' The Bridal Wine-Cup' and sLit-
tie Brown jug" mingled III classic delight
with the rattle of hoofs and wheels, and
made the grand old mountains ring as they
never have before. Out of the canyon,
across the creeks, the plain, over bitches
and fences they went, never hating until
| the place was reached. Here the moon hid
behind the clouds, the scene which was so
gay, changed to a more sublime. The old
s%choolhouse was dark within, and the DEATH
ly silence which looked out of its broad win
dows into the faces of the torlOrn visitors,
seemed to say, mo St. Patrick here's 1t
is needless to mention the return, but may
be in order to state that the flame of gayety
auieted down somewhat, and but for the
darkness the party would have gladly re-
paired the fences thrown dowy, and there
by saved the little bills paid the ranchmen.

1T will doubtless be news to our Meagher
county readers to know that Dacota, the
fine thoroughbred stallion now owned by
the Smith Bros, of Upper Smith river, is to
stand this season at RAIDERS ranch, near
Camp Baker. Everyone who sees this
horse admires his beautiful form and color.
His pedigree shows that he is of the very
best breeds. The low price of his service
gives everyone an opportunity to secure
some of his breed. The advertisement OF
this fine stallion, to which we invite atten-
ton, appears in another column. Arrange
ments have been made for excellent pastur-
age for mares at very reasonable rates. Da-
kota. We believe, is the only horse in
Meagher county of whom a certified pedi-
gree can be furnished, showing him to be a
thoroughbred. He was put in training last
year for the Helena races and gave promise
of developing speed; but his old lameness,
caused from an injury received while en-
route to the Territory. began to effect him
again. and it was decided that he would not
be able to make "A race, and his owners de-
termined not to enter him upon the turf.

FROM the Herald of a recent date we learn
that Montana is to have a book bindery.
Mr. A. j. Fisk, of that paper, has recently
purchased in Chicago Il complete book bind

establishment OF this kind is much needed
in this country, and will certainly be a pay

house, with which it is to be connected. We
are pleased to note the enterprise of this es-
adjustment.
IT is understood that the purchase of the
Penobscot property is about to be under
taken by capitalists, who are prepared to
take it for a half million Of dollars. The
hot work on the wires from Califor mia and
the East indicates on the part of some of the
mining men a desire to possess. the Penob-
scot at any reasonable figure. Mr.. Vestal
is not anxious to part with his great bonan-

The playing was about the same us when

posed to hold a meeting soon for the pul-

THE WHITNEY QUARTETTE.

Before another issue of the MORNING AP-
PEAL gladdens the heart and adds luster to
the Carson eye, both of which blessings it &C
complishes at the ruineusly low figure of
twenty-five cents a week, the Whitney Quar-
tette of singers will have probably taken
wings. Taking wings is good fguratively
especially as applied to songsters. Everywhere
this Quartette has appeared the audiences
have been large, and in no instance have
they failed to testify their hearty approval of
| these wonderful singers. The press of this
Coast has spoken of the Whitney Quartette
in way leaving no doubt as to the excellent
character of the entertainment given. The
programme for tonight, as already stated in
these columns, consists of ten selections,
Rossini, Gounod, Mendelssohn and other
great composers being represented. The
object of this notice is not to secure for the
Whitney Quartette good house o-night, be-
cause that has already been secured, but to
suggest the propriety of being at the Carson
of the performance may be lost as we'll to
avoid the too common habit of coming into
the hall while the entertainment is going on.
This latter may be considered the fashionable
but it's not the nice thing. OF the first con-
cert of the Whitney party at Virginia City,
on last Thursday night, the Enterprise of yes
terday says;
In Mrs Billings the quartette has soprano
asSoltto of wonderful powers. 1t is seldom
that singers of this class have SO even and full
a register Her voice is very flexible, highly
cultivated, and under mastery control Miss
Clark is rather a mezzo soprano than con-
tralto, but, whatever her voice, it's purity,
richness, fullness and evenness remind one of
the tones of an old Cremona violin-not loud,
but wonderfully sweet, clear and distinct all
the time. She might be taken from the piano
and placed in the front more frequently with
good effect. Mr. Fessenden's tenor is all that
is needed to supplement the alto and soprano
of the ladies, while the bass Of Mr.. Whitney is
simply immense. 1t is the diapason of the
deep sea softened by distance The enter
tainment by such quartette cannot but be
good, the parts being very equally balanced. |
is at least excited from beginning
to end of the performance, for the execution
is very fine.

POSTAL MATTERS. WIN. L. Bryant,
notice of whose appointment as Special
Mail Agent, to run between Virginia and

his appointment in due form, was sworn in as

is never backward in any movement having
for its object the amusement of the young
folks, has organized party of school girls,
consisting of the Misses Katie and Carrie
Bardenwerper Misses Lizzie Crawford, Ollie
Bray, Clara Thompson, and probably some
others whose names we have forgotten, for
an excursion to the Lake. The party will
leave for Glenbrook on Monday next, the
gallant Colonel leading his fair charge. The
excursionists have the best wishes of the
MORNING APPEAL for splendid time
Music FOR THE EXCURSION. The Plpers
Opera House Band will accompany the e1-
cursion train tomorrow Sunday to the
Bowers Mansion and Steamboat Springs. No
finer music, either brass or string, has ever
been heard in this part of the world than these
musicians furnish The music will form a
prominent feature of the enjoyments of to-
morrow's excursion Bear in mind that the
fare for the round trip from Carson to
Bowers and to Steamboat and back will be
but one dollar per head, which is astonish-
ingly cheap even for an excursion occasion.
The GRAND STAND.-The grand stand down
at the race course, which is nearly completed,
is one of the best buildings for the purpose on
this side of the Rocky Mountains, and in this
little gush we bar neither Sacramento nor
San Francisco. It is substantially built |
arranged, and, in short, is just |
