The correspondent of the Virginia Stage,
''Shamus O'Brien," gives additional pen
pictures Of Nevada's representatives, and
has this to say Of our own:
Senator Doolin, Of Eureka, is q tall,
well-formed and ~good-looking brunette.
This is his first legislative experience, but
he has given evidence of considerable
knowledge Of o parliamentary character.
His constituency have already given sufi-
Gent evidence Of their appreciation of his
services. The Senator is a bachelor, but
my impression is that some fair, young and
pretty Carson lass will jump into the mat
rimonial moose with him ere long. He
looks like Ex-Governor Parker, of New
Jersey.
Senator Croswell, Of Nye, is o a resi-
dent Of Eureka. He is o young as we'll as
a handsome man, and by profession he is
lawyer OF considerable repute. He shaves
clean ; has a full, round face, a clear eye,
and q resonant voice. 1t reminds n OF
the Virginia peoples accent, instead Of
Alabama, where he was born. as he pro
nounces ssSenator" with a "w"-'Sena-
taw." He is quite intelligent, ready, and
one OF the best parliamentarians in the
Senate. Affable, genial, good-natured, he
makes friends rapidly, and, what is better,
knows how to keep them. He looks like
General Hooker, Of Mississippi, though
not SO tall or eloquent as that gifted gen
tleman.
Smith. of Eureka. il q wiry. solid. &C
tive. intelligent little man. He has o keen
clear eye, moustaohe and chin whiskers
his hair being slightly tingel with silver,
He has had much experience. and serves
his constituency faithfully. He Is an hon
est and able representative.
Robinson, of Eureka-just In the prime
Of life, sober, active, and always answers
shere" at roll call-has had considerable
experience in legislative bodies. He look
like Congressman James II. Reilly o
Pennsylvania.
