A DISGRACEFUL Confession. At the ex.
animation yesterday in the Police Court OF
China Charley, three young, men, two OF
whom belong to very respectable families in
this city, unblushingly confessed of having
procured the vile drug from Charley, and the
natural inference is that they smoked it, else
why would they have bought it At present
there are great many in the insane asylum
from the effects of smoking opium, and more
are going each month from the same cause.
Ii the young men referred to, as well as all
other youthful opium smokers in Carson, do
not drop the pernicious vice, their fate may
be the same, and worse, if such thing can be.
Rather die drunk ard in the gutter than be
an opium smoker.
A CHINESE Row.-On Tuesday evenings
train Virginia Chnaman came to town for
the purpose of Ascending with a Celestial
dame of this city who shared his affections.
The dame belonged to another Chiuaman, by
whom she was purchased in China. The
stranger had not been in Chinatown more
than half an hour before he made his business
known in a braggart style, and in less time
thereafter he was pretty badly beaten by the
owner of the woman and his friends The
surprise is that the affair did not occasion a
fearful lot of bad shooting, which usually &C
companies such matters.
FIGHT.-Last evening a boot black and a
Chinese boy got into fight near the
Morton House, of course, atfording great
amusement to a considerable number of
men who had nothing to do but enjoy it,
and the China boy getting the worst of it.
