In view of the passing years. and Of
the limitations thereof, there are Ger
tain things which you VIII not escape,
but which you will be overtaken by
first or last. Your eve will betray you.
Your shaking hand will tell the story.
Your whitening head tells it already
You remember when you were so
young that you ran like a deer. How
heavy your foot is now! You remem-
Der when, scorning to wait to climb
over fence, you put your hand on
the tep rail and sprang over at bound.
How patient you are now in climbing
over a fence !! You remember when,
on coming to hill you went rejoicing
up, almost wishing it were higher.
Now how willing you are to pause on
its summit, and regain your lost breath!
Now and then man puts these things
together and says, 81 am not as young
as I once was, and I cannot bear as
much as I once scould.'' I suppose
some men could open vein in their
arm and see their life ebb away, though
not many; but we see our lives ebbing
away continually. One symptom
comes crying, ''Be ready to depart -
and for ever that is out Of sight. an
other courier from the other life says,
"Prepare to depart and scarcely
has that gone before another messen-
ger appears, saying, Il am sent to be-
gin to take down the tabernacle. [
will take something away from your
ears" And another takes something
away from the eyes. And another
takes little away from the heart.
Another diminishes the cells and weak
ems the force Of the lungs. The di-
gestion grows less strong. Men walk
more and run less, and sit more and
stand less. They love quiet, and be-
gin to see things in a subdued light.
They don't want to quarrel as much as
they used to; it is too much trouble;
and people say, "Grace is growing in
them" because their force is dimin-
ishing. Many sec these things and
mourn; and the voice cf men in the
antiquity was a sigh IN view Of their
decaying strength; but how much no
bier is the voice Of the word Of God
which says, Though the outward man
perish, yet the inward man is renewed
day By day" Take what you will
from the hair, from the ear, from the
tongue, from the head or from the
foot, and give me an equivalent in the
spirit, and [ will part with them joy
fully. Old age has nothing but eman-
cipation in it. To die here that We
may live beyond is to perish as an egg
that we may fly as an eagle.--BEEcH-

in order to appreciate how great bo-

MR.. MICHAEL HOLLANDS SIDE OF
THE STORY.

The editor of the MORNING APPEAL, who
has known Mike Holland for many years and
who respects him as an honest and courage
GUS man, is glad to be able to present to the
readers of this paper the following version OF
certain recent occurrences at Candelaria:
Candelaria, Nevada. March 81 1879.
EDITOR OF THE MORNING APPEAL: In your
issue of March %, under the heading OF
"High old times at Candelaria,' you furnish
your numerous readers an account of some
awless acts, reported to have been recently
committed in our usually quiet community.
The writer of the letter from which you
obtain the points for your article is cowardly
slanderer, and we are more than astonished
that You so far depart from your usual course
of fair dealing with your fellow citizens, as to
fully endorse the false statements of the letter
and in editorial comments add insult to injury
by branding Candearia as /" Lawless section o:
country" Again you say, every now and
| then reports come from that camp that are
perfectly shocking to the ear of resident of
a quiet and peaceful community" 1t is evil
dent that your hasty and harsh verdict passed
upon was premature, as you heard but one
witness in the case, and that one not in sight.
"With all your faults We love you still but
don't forget that fair play is jewel, and
that "to call things by their lght names is
one of the first attributes of true manhood.
In reference to the trial, the deliberations
of the jury were not disturbed, which fact is
certified to by the signatures of the five (and
not twelve) jurors sworn to try the case, &C
conpanied by the signature of the Justice pre-
siding The balance of your information is a
base fabrication No warrants were issued
for arrests, and there was no necessity for any.
Respectfully, Dave McKissick, and
Many citizens.
The undersigned, jurors in case of assault
and battery, tried before Justice Everard in
Candelaria, Nevada, March 10Th 1879, de-
string to publicly refute the statement which
appeared in the Carson APrEAE of March %,
1879, do hereby pronounce the information
conveyed by letter from Candelaria, to be ma
liciously false and devoid of truth. (Signed)

MINING IN ORMSBY COUNTY.
sATURDAY

The hattering and encouraging develop
ments that have been made i'll the Cowing Il
Zabriskie, and the most promising prospects
that rich ledge will soon be uncovered Ill
that mine, ought to stimulate the enterprise
of the people of this city somewhat III the d.
rection of prospecting for precious mineral de-
posits. The present exhibit In the Cowlng
& Zabriskie demonstrates beyond question
that valuable mineral deposits exist in Orms
BY county, and all that is required to ind
them is the expenditure of a little money and
muscle Something is certainly required to
revive the commercial life here. The wood
business, which formerly was source of great
trade and revenue for this town, Is gradually
removing so distant from Carson that 1t Will
soon be of no interest to us. In fact, that
business was even up to two years since one
of the main stays of Carson trade. AS this
great support of the county of Ormsby is
Withdrawn, it is necessary to look about for
something else that will perpetuate the pros
perity which we enjoyed up to the present
moment, and nothing looks so feasible and
practlcaOle TO tnaE emu as the search lot gOOQ
mines, which will be found in this county be-
yond peradventure, If only the necessary en-
ergy is exercised and little capital prudently
expended. There are many idle men here,
as well as in Storey County, who will work
for small stipend and their board during
these dull times If our business men would
form themselves into one or more companies,
and monthly contribute a certain amount
each to a common fund for the furtherance
Of this prospecting project, there is not the
slightest doubt that within twelve month
their OUTLAWS would be returned to them hun
dred fold, and by such means would have fos
tered mining industry in our midst that
would insure the prosperity of this county for
many years.

1.-THE COLOR GUARD"
many years.

The committee who have the matter in hand
of raising funds with which to secure suffi-
cient supply Of water to keep our cemeteries
in good order, have decided to present the
emotional drama, 1.-The Color Guard" at the
Opera House on the 11th and 10Th of this
month. The cast in the piece will be com
posed of local histrionic talent. with the ex-
ception of the two leading characters, which
will be played by professionals, who have had
much experience in this play. The German
character will be presented by an Eastern
actor, who comes out Tor this purpose, and
who has made an immense success of the part
In the Atlantic States Ignoring the purpose
altogether for which the I" Color Guard" en-
tertainments are to be given, they ought to be
we'll attended, for the drama abounds in orig
inal de-splitting fun, and exciting situations
This piece is intended to convey the serious
as well as some of the ludicrous sides of the
war, and the author has admirably succeeded
in these particulars 1t is, of course, of the
highly sensational type, but with all of that
it is full of merit, and will please the most
exaeting theater-goer Seats Can now be re-
served at the Opera Honse.

LOOKS LIKE HAUNTED. - Clescovich has
closed his restaurant, and since the furniture
and fixtures have been removed from the
premises, the building, late at night, looks as
if it were haunted by spooks, gobblins and all
sorts of wicked spirits. To linger about the
spot at midnight will make the flesh of one
even not superstitious, creep. Without light
aid furniture the room looks like the anti
chamber of Dante's hell. So much for the
fancies of a sober man; but let one, who h.

churchyards yawn, etc, and we will wager
that he can see long professions of ghosts,
clad in white, perambulating therein. The
