G 0 o r T &.

The United States District Court convened
yesterday in tho Court Room, Hon Z. w
Hillyer, presiding IN the matter of the APP
plicatiOn of Emanuel F. Rule for writ of
habeas corpus, petition denied. Case of o.
S. vs.. Doc. Bell, OF al, continued to May 80,
and attachments ordered for defaulting wit
nesses. Court adjourned until Tuesday next
at 10 o'clock
INNER TEMPLE.
His Honor, Justice Witherell, presiding.
John Flanagan, the placid gentleman who
was arraigned for petit larceny the other day,
and who was not convicted on account of the
jury not agreeing, was brought up on the
charge of vagrancy. The complaint describ-
ing him rs a healthy beggar, soliciting aims
as a business, and being an idle and dissolute
person roaming about the country from place
to place He demanded jury trial and OBJ
tanned it, as every arraigned citizen has the
privilege of doing. A number of witnesses
were examined for the State, testifyiug affirm
atively to the general propositions OF the com,
plant. Mr.. Flanagan conducted his own
case, and told the same story To each witness
when afforded the privilege and prerogative of
cross examination, the burden of which was
that the parties to whom he referred did
live yit." His style of cross examination had
more of method than foolishness about it.
His Honor was kept busy in endeavoring to
keep him to the question, but on every occa-
sion of reproof or direction he would
say, with great promptness, ''Yis, sur, and
then sail On again in the old tracks with the
same words He was finally induced to de-
sist from repeating just what he wished to
for the forty seventh time by the termination
of the case Upon being submitted the jury
rendered a verdict of guilty of vagrancy in
the first degree. His Honor performed his
duty like martyr and sentenced Mr. Elan
nigan to ninety days in the County Jail also
hard labor

WHILE PASSING down Carson street, our
attention was arrested bv an artesan
putting up a sign bearing this inscription:
"Dr Fox" 1t was at the side of the door
communicating with the grand stairway lead
ing to the upper portion of the building oc-
cupied by G. D. Fryer as saloon, and I'M
mediately adjacent to the Ormsby House
We paused i'll our onward march and got an
adj, which appears in the proper place this
morning and announces that Drs. Fox and
Smart have severed the bonds which have
heretofore clasped them in fond embrace and
they have so to speak, amicably divorced.
DR. Smart still continues at the old stand on
King street, prepared to meet the wishes and
alleviate the suferings of the afflicted. while
DR. Fox, with the same benihcent intent has
established himself in the above named quar-
ters, where he has a suite of four rooms ele-
ganty furnished and supplied with all the
appliances, nOstrum and peculiarites peculiar
to the healing art. The dissolution is very
mutual one, each of the partners taking his
own patients, assuming his own responsible
tiles and paying his own debts, all of which
they are both able to do and professionally
and individually will take great pleasure i'll
doing.
The San Francisco papers received yester
day announced the death in that city of Dr.
w. G. Wayman, formerly of Carson City, and
at the time of his death member of the |

the interers of Carson. He was a nephew of |
old Doctor j. II. Wayman who married Mrs. |

administered upon the estate. He remained |
i'll the practice of medicine here for several
years and then removed to San Francisco
He had many friends in this vicinity and the
announcement of his death yesterday was
received with heartfelt sorrow He was

A Law Against Long Dresses.

The ancient sumptuary laws OF republi-
can and imperial Rome, a. well IA the nu-
merous statutes and edicts Of the same
character In England and France, were di-
rected chiefly against excuses In diet and
dress. Such legislation has been advocated
as particularly necdful In republics, to which
luxury was formerly deemed full OF peril,
II not absolutely fatal; but In modern times
II finds few apologists in any civilized coun-
try. Lawmakers perceive 1t to be most ac-
cordant with freedom to insist only on such
apparel and diet Ms shall suffice TO maintain
decency and prevent public drunkenness,
and the legislation whereby these ends are
sought proceeds from the exercise OF the po-
lice powers inherent in nearly all Govern
mcnts.
A contemplation OF some forms Of apparel
for women, however, has doubtless often
provoked in man an ardent wish for the
restoration OF sumptuary laws. No sort OF
attire has offended him more than the long
dresses with which too many women Of the
nineteenth century apparently delight to
sweep the sidewalks and crossings OF the
public streets and thoroughfarcs in cities.
The persistence with which women have
chung TO these dresses has almost dispclled
any hope OF their ultimate rejection, and
wearicd man has ceased to argue or rail
against what he cannot help.
1t ia with great pleasure. therefore, that
We hail ray Of promised reform in this re-
spcct, which comes TO us across the sea
from two cities of Germany. Women have
been forbidden by public ordinance to wear
dresses which touch the ground in the
street sof Prague and Lcipsic. The munich
pal authorities do not assert any power to
pass sumptuary laws They Justify the
measure on sanitary grounds alone. Their
right to promote the preservation Of the
health Of the community by suitable police
regulations il conceded; and in the exercise
Of this right they have prohibited long
dresses for the express reason that the dust
raised by the trains is unqucstionably in
furious to the health of persons who are ox-
posed to II.
This view Of the detrimental nature OF
dust Is entertained by many sanitarians
The late DIR. GRTscoM Of this city used Ia
favor stone pavement in preference to any
other kind, chiefly because 1t was less pro-
ductivc Of dust, and therefore, in his opin-
ion, less dclctorious tn the public health
The legislators of Prague and Leipsic have
not based their prohibition on utterly UNI
tcnable grounds. They will have the warm
sympathy Of that portion Of civilized man
kind that loves cleanliness and they can at
least say Of their novel clict, rs FROUDT

! that il constitutes an authoritative dcclara.
