Defeats for Disraeli.
London letter.

The election ip the pottery dis
tricts of Staffordshire, which was an
nounced last week, in which Lib
eral was returned in the place of
Tory who had resigned, by a major
ity Of 800, was a serious blow to the
serenity of the Tory party, but that
has been followed by another this
week. The Marquis of Lorne's ac-
ceptance of tine Governor General
ship of Canada has involved the res
ignation of his seat for Argyllshire.
Though sitting as liberal, through
out all this controversy. Lord Lorne
has been unable to resist the Court
influence, and he has voted as Tory.
Before the election was, announced,
Mr.. Malcolm, the Tory member for
Boston, threw up the seat he already
possessed, in order to 60 to the North
and contest with Lord Lorne's
younger brother the seat which has
been in the Argyll family for gener-
atoms The result has been a tri-
umph for Lord Colin Campbell, of
1855 votes. Lord Colin, unlike his
brother, denounced the government
policy, and as Mr.. Malcolm support
ed it, it follows that the defeat Of
Mr.. Malcolm is defeat of the gov
ernment, tA =;

CONTINUE GOOD MEN Il
OFFICE.

Some of the disappointed office
seekers throughout this county are
endeavoring to make point against
such of the nominees on the respec-
tive tickets as are already in office,
by advocating what they term the
principle OF rotation in office. We
believe that they will fail in their
efforts in this direction-as they
ought. Unworthy, inefficient or in
competent officials are so common,
nowadays, that the people are not
likely, when they secure servants
who give entire satisfaction, to light
ly cast them off for untried men.
Nor would it be good policy to do
so. Were this principle Of rotation
in office to be rigidly carried out
none could ever hope for a re-elec-
ton, and the consequence would be
tudt, OuCc III, tuC oinSC-uoiuCi hiShs
hasten to feather his nest at the ex-
pense of his constituents. AS things
now are, not a cent is expended for
which the country does not receive
the amplest value, the taxes are
much lower than in almost any
other county in the State, and the
taxpayers therefore receive the full
benefits of good county government
at minimum cost. Let US, therefore,
show our appreciation of the Scr
vices of our present local public SER
wants by re-electing them, irrespec-
tive of their political affiliations;
and, as the principle of rotation in
office is In the main a good one, let
US. apply it to our State and national
| affairs. Phe day is not far distant
when this will be the, acknowledged
line Of demarcation in party poll
| tics, and Lyon county-the banner
Republican county of this battle
born State-may as well as not be
10 the lead in this respect also.

TWO PICTURES.

A "great outrage" has been per-
petrated in Virginia City. Last Sat
urday evening an occasional patron
went into Pipsr's Opera House and
found that, by an usher's mistake,
his two seats had been given TO
other parties. The occasional patron
grew indignant, then lie waxsd
wroth. and 1t soon became evident
that he would not be pacified on any
terms. He was thereupon escorted
70 the box Office, and offered the
choice of what seats remained un-
sold, but he refused to be placated,
and left the establishment in dis,
gust to return to his lodgings,
where the money he had paid for
his seats 5000 followed him. The
next day the Virginia papers felt
called upon to comment at length
upon the "ontrage." The occur
renee was deplorable, and was prob
ably regretted by none more keenly
than by Mr.. Piper and the courteous
usher. 1t was also exceedingly ag-
gravating to the occasional patron,
but it hardly justified him in max
ing such an ungentlemanly exhibit
ton of bad temper, and rushing. into
print as he did.
Some months ago. bright lad. of
some fourteen summers was killed
in a shooting gallery, in Virginia
City. by stray shot from gun in
the hands of this same occasional
patron. The feelings of the parents
of the child thus stricken down in
his early adolescence muse have
been wrought up to high degree,
yet they did not make q public ex-
hibition of one-fourth Of the bad
temper manifested by the occasional
patron last Saturday evening, and
they accepted the proffered excuses
of the man who had killed their
child with scarcely word OF COM
plant. Yet, of the two occurrences,
that just mentioned was certainly the
most calculated to arouse angry feel
ings.
And who is this occasional patron,
this Caesar so great that he cannot
palliate. an usher's slight mistake?
His name is Sam Osbiston, and he
is clerk in the Virginia agency of
the Nevada Bank.

HOW DAGGETT SAVED THE
PRINTERS' UNION.

1t is claimed, by part of the
Democratic press Of this State, that
the Union printers will not vote for
r. NJ. Daggett for Congress. We
believe this to be a slahder, as, were
it not, 1t would prove thel Union
printers to be as ungrateful q pack of
hounds as ever disgraced any craft.
About five years ago the Enterprise
Office (Which was then owned by Joe
Goodman) was i" ratted;" that is, the
Union printers were turned out to
make way for non-Union men or
&" rats" A few months thereafter the
Office passed out Of Goodman's hands
and Daggett was given charge Of the
establishment. One of his first acts,
on taking charge, was to telegraph
to John Church, the present foreman
of the Enterprise, to, tender him the
position which he still holds. Mr..
Church came up, when the rats
were ct once compelled to give way
to Union men. This result was due
solely to r. NJ. Daggett, ana it saved
the Washoe Typographical Union
(the only one on the Coast worthy of
the name) from total disruption. 1t
would therefore be the highth of in
gratitude for the printers of Nevada
10 refuse to vote for r. NJ. Daggett.
The writer can vouch for the truth
of the above, as he was one of the
Union men driven from the Enter
prise Office by the Gratis"

ton might be tolerated., regard the

tunate and mischevious. The question

irrevocably settled by a tribunal EN-
tirely legal and constitutional, and the
reopening Of the question i'm any way

that threw open the gates could never

For some time the Committee on
Rules of the House have been framing
n scheme by which the passage of the
River and Harhor appropriation bill.
the Texas Pacific bill. and other bills
could be prevented by parliament;rT
law. and they attempted, under CARTEL Ids
leadership, to secure its adoption by
the House. The proposition itself was
simple,but deceptive rules were amended
so as to require that all bills originating
in the Senate appropriating money. land
or property of the United States. and JAIL
amendments made to HOf:se bills. nO5
germane to the same. shall first be conSid-
crd in committee of the whole. This
would delay such measures as are alluded
to indefinitely. las the rules now allow bills
of this character, which have been con
sidered in the Senate, to be disposed OF
without all of this parliamentary cOnfu-
sion. Congcr and others exposed the
scheme. and the report of the commit
tee was unceremoniOusly laid Oh the
table.

THE main feature of the bill reported
in the Senate by Mr.. Edmunds on the
subject of electoral votes for president
and vice President, is the provision that
no electoral tvote from any state from
which but one return has, been received
shall be rejected except by the aifirma-
tive vote of both ho>ises of Congress, and
that in case more than one return is re-
