OF late people have been clamorous
for crosscuts in the Sierra Nevada.
Everybody Ia anxious to know what lies
to the west Of the drift On the 200 level
aad would not object to seeing what is
quietly reposing just back OF the station
ON the $500 level. II Is now. however.
definitely decided that there are to be
no crosscuts till the 2i00 il reached and
taanksd and the $500 IL prepared also.
Then the three levels will DO opened up
together.
In other words. although men may
CRY crosscuts there will DO no crosscuts
tll there Ia o good ready for them.

Amongst Our Gel
Ored People.

The New York Nation of last week.
in commenting upon Mr.. WINDOWS reso-
luton i'll regard TO promoting the emigra-
ton OF colored people, notes the fact that
MI. Window oyrrlooks great deal of
negro emigration that has been and is
still going on under the influence of eco
nomical motives. THAT is to say" saws
the Nation, which can always be cruelty
frank when its own individual interest
does not seem TO suffer, ''the negroes do
move about a great deal in pursuit of
cheaper or better land or higher wages,
and 1t is remarkable fact that to this
emigration the States in which there has
been most bulldozing-such as Louisiana
and Mississippi-have been most attract
i've, because land can be had in them
most readily. The explanation of this
Is that the great body OF the negroes
really trouble themselves very little about
politics, so long as they have fair security
for person and property, which they have
III as high degree as the white man all
over the South except about election
time" The Nation adds that we have
had many inquiries into the political
condition Of blacks, sbut nothing would
do 50 much good just now as an inquiry
by competent commission into theiI
social and economical condition, with
the view OF ascertaining the progress they
are making i'll quirlng proper and
education"
The daily gazette., 1879-02-05

DON'T TALK SO MUcH.-The Repub-
i,can has bad fashion of saying the GA
zETTE asserts so and so, aud then saying
the assertion is not true. In that way
it imposes upon its readers. We give an
example. Yesterday, in referring to the
Legislature, the Republican says;
"Then there are little perquisites in
the way of postage stamps, stationery,
penknves, inksi ands and law books, and
it is not true that they drink nothing but
water, as the GAZETTE asserts"
Now, we know nothing about the per-
quisites referred to. 1t is as likely as not
there is here a slanderous inuendo
also. But it is utterly false where it says
s'the GAZETTE asserts they drink nothing
but water" The GAZETTE could not
have said this, since we often drink tea
and coffee as we'll as something little
stronger ourself, and we could not with
propriety object 10 temperate aud moral
gentlemen doing the same. Only see
how easy it would have been for the Re
publican TO have said nothing Of this kind
and it would have been sure it could
not have lied. 1t has told the truth very
frequently, and We wish to help 1t to re-
cover from bad habit it has fallen into,
and We know it can do So by holding its
tongue

THE MEETING of citizens last night

THE MEETING of citizens last night
ought to be commended by every one.-
1t looks as though the people intended to
take hand in the city government. 1t
is useless for the newspapers to urge
economy so long as citizens pay no
regard to what they say. The City Conn
Gil is somewhat in the same position.
They are often urged by certain parties
to do what they have no wish TO do, and
while these are active and persistent, aud
others say nothing and suffer themselves
TO be misrepres ented, Councilmen are
always liable to give way to making i'm
provements that are costly as well as un-
necessary. The meeting last night was
large and respectable, composed of men
Of character of both parties, and we hope
it will not be long before they meet again
in the same spirit and ON the same sub
ject. At the rate'the lakes have been i'll
creasing under extravagant government,
properly will ere long not be worth hold
ing. There is a class Of men that care
nothing for this. They draw their in
comes from stocks and fat jobs; and
hence they laugh at all that the news
papers say upon the subject. Property is
lower now than it was last year, and is
likely to be lower still, unless the taxes
are reduced.

versed. The minority take the ground
that sixty-thres members. q majority OF
the entire number Of Represe natives
provided for by the constitution of the
State, are necessary to constitute quo
rum, and that Mr.. Corbin was therefore
not duly elected. It Is also claimed that
the facts in the case show very plainly
thar the Board of State Canvassers were

WESTERN UNION RAILROAD
DEEAULT

The New York Evening Post of Non
day gives an Interesting account of the
condition of the Western Union Rail.
road Z, mpany's default upon the inter.
est on the first mortgage bonds due lst
instant. The share capital of the road is
81 1900 900, of which the Chicago, Mil.
waukee AID ST. Paul Railroad Company
purchased from the City of fGlasgow Bank
s2OOl 900, or ten shares more than "A
majority. The Glasgow Bank, which
lately failed, holds 81 ,999 900 of the srock
and large part of the bonds of the Wes.
tern Union Railroad Company. The Post
says:
THE common understanding, whether
just or not, Is that the default in the in
terest on the bonds Is for tue purpose of
depressing their market price aud eu-
abling the Chicago, Milwaukee and ST.
Paul to buy them below what it /, con-
sldcred they are worth. This understand
ing Is strengthened by the fact that the
net arninge OF the road are considerably
in excess about Slj5 800 of the amount
needed TO pay the interest on the bonds
AMI also by The fact that the road earn,
In proportion to its BONDED deht, more
than the other sections of the Chicago,
Milwaukee and ST. Paul system of roads
Wne her, II tins is the purpose of the
default, II will succeed is very doubtful
for the Reason that, by the terms OF the
mortgage securing the bond, ON which
default was made, if the interest Remains
unpaid for sixty days al er tine date due
and after demand has been made, The
principal Of the bonds becomes due. ii
follows, therefore that, if at the end OF
sixty day the interest on these bonds
has not been paid, the Chicago, Milwau
kee and Paul railroad win then have
IN ma ftI H. ,rt ta.s,, Al a

nouncement of the failure Of ii. Z. * 5.
l.. Sayles, Dayville, and 5. l.. Il I. ID.
Sayles, Versailles, Conn, created q seu-
sation among the wool merchants In this
city. These concerns-in reality, one
have beeii in existence twenty-five years
and were the largest individual manufac-
turers of woollen goods in the country.
The mills at Mechanicsville were the
finest in the State and ran fifteen or SIX
teen sets of machinery. The mills at
Dayville contained ten or twelve sets OF
machinery, and those at Versailles fifteen
sets, making an aggregate OF about forty
sets of machinery, which were employed
ex lus vely in the manufacture OF cassl-
II ere. The product Of the three mills
amounted to 81, 100000 or S2.OOO,OOO in
value per annum, and these goods were
consigned TO the house of Low, Hartman
X Co., New York. The capital invested
in mill property is estimated at from
$3.50, 900 to $1,000, 600, the entire village
of Mechanicsville being owned by the
finn Of ii. G.. x 5. l.. Sayles.
The failure bears heavily upon the
wool merchants OF this city, who were
creditors of the two firms TO the extent
of $500 to 100000. The suspended
firihs were the largest purchasers of wool
who came to this market, and scarcely a
single house has escaped the blow. 1t is
estimated that three-fourths of the loss
by this failure will fall upon Boston mer-
chants, although it is impossible to state
the amount of the liabilities. The fail
ure is attributed to depreciation in the
value of voollen goods aud the inability
of the firms to obtain assistance from
local banking houses on which they have
heretofore relied.
