Our correspondent "M.,' whose commun-
munication we published some days ago, asks
us to make acorrection, which We cheerfally do

years" AS the rest of the communication,
is covered by his former article, we are unable,
from lack of space, to print it to-day. We may
say, however, that we agree with our CORES
pondent, not only in the necessity of acting
promptly in the case, but in the economy of
changing the present building as proposed.

The Chicago Tribune says, regarding the
vote cast in San Francisco on the question of
Chinese immigration: at will be useless here
after for Eastern men, like Henry Ward Bee
cher, Joseph Cook or Whitelaw Reid to re-
publish that the people of that city are divided
ON the Chinese question. The question was
submitted directly to the people at the recent
election whether there should be any more
Chinese immigration into California, and the
negative majority exceeded 10000 in San
Francisco alone"

Mrs. RICHARD Robinson will give one of
her royal feasts at her residence, on Second

8 o'clock The bill of fare comprises, among
other substantials and delicacies, roast, fried
and potpied chickens, roast pig and roast
calf, peaches and cream, ice cream, ETC., etc.
The supper is for the benefit of Rev. w.
Carver, pastor of the NJ. E. Church, and
Mrs. Robinson invites all to come aud do
their best on her viands and the best for the
pastor. -tStIrer State.
This mode of begging has become so com
n, of late Years as to disgust people who are
not church members, but who nevertheless,
are staunch supporters of our poorly paid
missionary clergymen. 1t is all very earnest
work with good hearted Decreases, this get
ting up of nice little feasts and ice cream
parties to aid these men who have but small
certain support guaranteed, but it is a mis-
taken policy, as we have reason to know
from remarks overheard from disguised men.
An honest and earnest appeal to the men of
Nevada, never fails to meet with generous
response, and If the good sisters of the church
will try it, they will find it pays much better
and gives more satisfaction, than the system of
wheedling men out OF coin by means of suppers
or ice creams. Besides, men like to see their
names on subscription lists, and vanity has a
more potent influence upon our acts than
stomach. These reunions, are no doubt,
very pleasant to class, but unfortunately it
is not the class which supports the church or
the pastor. The nice young men who teach
Sunday School and play croquet, are not the
men who put up coin.

The Sentinel, in an article on Eureka's out
look, gives an interesting resume of the con
dition and prospects of the various mines Of
Ruby Hill and Prospect Mountain, a district
which has been producing largely and adding
to the wealth of Nevada; bringing capital
from abroad and heavy investors from the
Eastern States, but which has not yet been
half developed, and We have always held the
opinion that the Eureka District will prove
at least the richest camp in the State. The
Sentinel closes its article with the following
There is an encouraging feature in connec-
ton with the mines of Prospect Mountain
which is just beginning to be understood
The gold belt which crosses the old mountain,
passing directly through the Williams, the
Silver Conner and Pioneer, forms very i'm
portant part of the mineral wealth of this
district. The ledge formation at the point
designated is known to have an average width
Of more than one hundred feet. The ore is
exceedingly rich in gold. The Prospect
Mountain tunnel, an enterprise of the very
Grstimportance, and one deserving to be.stimu.
lated and encouraged by every business man
in Eureka, will within the next year tap this
gold section at great depth. We may then
look for developments that will stir the min
ing world and attract hither such share of
attention as our district has not hitherto en-
enjoyed On the whole, the outlook of Eu-
reks is especially bright and cheering, leaving
no room to doubt that it is destined to be,
what the Sentinel has always claimed it would
be, the greatest mining center on the Pacific
Coast
The views of the Sentinel, as We have reason
know, are by no means exaggerated.

LINES WRITTEN IN A YOUNG LADY'S
ALBUM.
BY T. w. HRALY.

The dew drops trembling on the rose,
The zephyr floating DER the lea,
The springing grass, the flower that blows,
Brings to my mind sweet thoughts OF thee.
Tbs brilliant eye, the lovely form,
The matchless beauty of the face,
Thz witchery Of the nameless charm
That comes from Virtue, Beauty, Grace,
Are thine yet not for gifts rare,
Bat higher snes with them combined
Such as doth make the fair more fair
white souled purity of mind.
For every impulse of thy heart
Ii noble, generous, pure and true,
While we who know how good thou art
Believe the angels copy you.

THE Examiner says: "Instead of staying
here to hang Gen. Grant in effigy at the sand
lots, the cowardly dunghill rooster who crowed
the infamous threat, has run away to the
country, there to remain until the reception
demonstration shall pass away. A leader who
runs away from his own scare is not the crea-
ture brave men ought to follow or recognize.

front of the coat, leather belt around the
manly waist, a continental hat, bearing a huge
brass eagle in front and black plume on the
side, the grand old chief of the Piutes forms
conspicuous figure wherever he chances to
promenade. He graces the streets of Reno
to-day, and a Gazette reporter took advantage
of the opportunity to interview him. He is
accompanied by his private secretary, Captain
John, who gave valuable assistance in inter-
preting the oracular utterances of the old man.
He says he was born seventy five years ago
on the Humboldt sink, near where Browns
Station now is, and when boy lived with his
brother on Pyramid Lake and the Truckee
river. His name means swift of foot, and
when taken in connection with his chieftancy
means that he is everywhere at once-ubiqui-

he ever saw, coming to Salmon river to mine.
He had never heard of any such creatures and
did not know what they were. He says he
came from Salmon river to Winnemucca.

The Best /. the Cheapest.

The announcement that new edition
OF Webstcr's Unabridged Dictionary has
just been published, containing many
new and valuable features, suggests the
thought that buying a Dictionary is a
good deal like buying an egg or watch
a bad one is not cheap at any price,
Webster being the standard authority
for the English language, he naturally
has many imitators. but imitators are
usually held at their true worth by the
public who wants q wooden nutmeg,
though it may look ever so much like
the genuine article? The popularity OF
Webster is based upon this principle.
If you want handy thing to carry
with you, a companion that you can al
ways rely upon, and one that will never
tire you, really vade mecum, we recon.
mend that you get a copy of the pocket
edition of Webster, with its $4,000
words and meanings, rules for spelling,
tables of weights and measures, abbre-
viations, words, phrases and proverbs
from the ancient and modern Languages.
