LAxGvoR, ITS CAUSE and REMEDY.

The cause of %languor, when it is not the
immediate or indirec. consequence Of posi-
tive disease, is traceable to a facilitating
temperature. Persons living in a warm,
moist climate are peculiarly subject to it
Diminished physical vigor and an indis.
position to active exertion are its character
istics. Sometimes it is accompanied by un-
due relaxation Of the bowels, and by dys-
peptic or bilious symphonic. A reliable
remedy is Hostetter's Stomach Bi,lera, a
strengthening and Alternative medicine
derived from the purest and most eficacious
vegetable sources, with a pure spirituous
basis, pronounced by eminent physicians a
mild and wholesome stimulant. The Bit
ters, foremost Of American tones, ia largely
used in the tropica, where the climate is
very productive of debility, malarial fevers
and disorders Of the bowels, liver and diges
tive organs.

New RuIiard RuIcs.

The new billiard rules under which the
games Of the coming tournament in New
York are to be played have at last been de-
cided on, and have been approved by the
leading players. They provide that the
corners Of the table shall be cut of by
lines drawn on the cloth. Not more than
two caroms in succession are to be allowed
on balls within these triangular spaces, and
after two caroms nave been made either
one or both Of the object balls must be
sent across the line. These lines decrease
the length of cushion available for ''rail-
nursing" by one-half, leaving but ifty-six
inches on the loLg cushions and twenty
eight Oh the short. In order to encourage
.round the table" shots, direct caroms and
caroms, to make which but one cushion is
taken are to count one; caroms in which
two or three cushions are taken are to
count two; when the players ball strikes
four or more cushions the carom is to
count three points, except when the second
object ball is within one Of the -four corner
spaces. When the balls become frozen the
player may either play on the free ball or
a cushion, or can have the balls spotted.
The third shot within the corner spaces, or
. shot made with the butt or side Of the
cue, is declared a foul. Players are for
hidden to place q mark Of any kind on the
cushion as . guide for making shots. All
INSTRUCTIONS on the cloth or balls are to be
removed by the referee or marker. The
player winning the lead may demand that
his opponent shall play first. The first
player may play from any point inside the
string. instead of from q point within six
inches Of the spotted ball. The ''three-
cushion opening shot" is barred" in
match games. 1t is thought that these
rules will make long runs on the rail-
possible.

On the 5th Mr. Cassidy introduced Q bill
in the Senate to prevent slavery. 1t de-
clares that the great body of Chinese i'm
migrants come to this country as slaves,
who leave behind them relatives as hos
tages for the fulfllment OF their contracts.
The bill prohibits the importation Of
Cinnamon or others under these term labor
contracts.
Mr.. Cassidy spoke in favor Of the bill,
maintaining that as not only the Federal
but State Constitution prohibits slavery.
the Chinese who come here under contract
are practically slaves. He believed that
the bill would do good, aud that the courts
would sustain it. &
Senator Stewart believed that Mr.. CASH
dy had made a grand discovery, and that
his bill was a key to the situation.
The bill was passed unanimously under
suspension of the rules.

We are pleased to hear OF the good re-
port Of one Of d. J. ]. McLaughlin's
mines. situated east Of the Basey property
in the Secret Canyon Mining District.
The mine is known as the Irish Ambassa-
dor. 1t is opened by a inclined shaft
l40 feet in depth from the surface. A rich
seam Of ore continued all the way down
for 100 feet. At this point it opened out
from W to three feet wide. and contained
black metal. 1t looks as il it would assay
in the neighborhood Of 81 500. The shaft
il being sunk through the hardest kind Of
doiomitic limestone. There are eight or
ten tons of ore on the dump. 1t is to be
hoped by all who are interested in the
prospecting OF Secret Canyon that this en-
terprise will be successful and reward Mr..
Mclaughlin. as he HIS spent a great deal
Of money and time for the last ten years in
prospecting. The Secret Canyon Mining
Distric. contains rich mining property.
What it requires to develop it is capital
judiciously expended.

HAMILTON, March Z.
EDfroR SENTINEL Last evening . few
invited friends assembled at the residence
Of Mr.. C. A. Mathewson to witness the
marriage Of that gentleman to Miss Addie
va~nder-Schuer. The event was something
Of a surprise to even the more intimate
friends Of the happy couple, as they
had succeeded in keeping the affair more
than usually quiet. At eight o'clock the
bride and groom, accompanied by Mrs..
NJ. .Bozarth. as bridesmaid, and Mr.. W.
r. Forrest, rs groomsman. took their
places before the assembled guests. and
the marriage ceremony was performed by
Rev. Mr.. Phelps, Of Eureka. In . most i'm.
pressive manner. The bride was dressed
in-bnt marriage ia . solemn thing, at
least, those who have tried 1t. say 30, and
we will not cast q gloom over the event by
~endeavoring to Jenkinize it-suffice 1t to
say the bride looked lovely. as all brides
should, and the groom manly, handsome
and happy, which is exactly the way .
bridegroom should look. The assembled
guests were in their best dress and hap
piest mood. After the ceremony, there
followed the usual congratulations and
good wishes to tho newly married pair,
when all sat down to an elegant repast.
At . late hour the wedding party adjourned
to Medin's Hall, where dancing was in
dulged in until the ''wee sma' hours"
While we shall greatly miss Mr.. Mathew
son from our bachelor ranks, we cannot
but envy him his happier lot. We are sure
that the many Eureka friends Of the newly
welded pair will join with us in wishing
them a pleasant voyage down the river Of
Time. May happiness, usefulness and
prosperity freight full the Argosies that
accompany them, and all the clouds that
rise above them-for clouds must come to
every sky-turn their silver lining earth
wards. That mutual ~forbearance will still
every troubled wave about them. and The
future, SO bright with golden promise,
grow brighter IS they draw nearer, until
every hope is realized, every promise full
filled, is the sincere wish Of
A FRIEND.

Once More on the CoInstOck--Some-
thing of His Past History AS Con.
meeted with the stage.

meeted with the Stage.
Pat. Holland. the celebrated fighting
journalist and poet Of Phoebe, says the
Virginia Chronicle, arrived in this city yes
terday, it being the first tune he has been
on the Comstock for a couple Of years.
Mr.. Holland has been for some two years
past the Postmaster Of a tow near Phoebe
known where it is known-as Bob-tailed
Gulch. In connection with the duties q
distributing half a dozen letters a week to
the population Of the place, he also dis
penses q rare quality of bug-juice to the
inhabitants in quantities to suit. 1t is
manufactured right on the spot by Mr..
Hollands own hand, and is slowly but
surely d~epopulating the country for miles
around. Mr.. Holland, in his palmy days,
was something Of o dramatic author. and
evolved from his inner consciousness the
melo-drama Of THE Crescents," q play
which once had such a run at the Alham-
bra Theater in this city that the manage
ment were obliged to take it off the boards
to prevent the frail edifice from bursting
with enraptured audiences. As it was, the
managers preferred to burst, which they
did as gracefully as the circumstance
would permit. Mr.. Holland has at times
condescended to come down from his
authors pedestal and take q hand with the
ordinary actors. He appeared at a White
Pine theater in the burlesque Of William
Tell" and shot an orange off Tell juniors
head with q six-shooter. At the report Of
the pistol, the orange, which had . fine
thread attached, would fly from the stage
into the wings, where it Immediately had q
hole punched exactly through the center
by q snpe. 1t would then be thrown On
the stage and exhibited to the applauding
audience. Who can say that Pats methods
were not equal to John Mccullough, the
great public banquet actor. Volumes
might be written on the life of this wild,
restless spirit Of Phoebe civilization, Pat.

ORIGIN of che Reno Fire.

The Reno correspondent Of the Gold
Hill s'News" gives the following as the
probable origin Of the great fire Of Sunday
last: Many suppose the fire was the work
of an incendiary, but l am inclined ia
credit the version OF a colored man, by the
name Of Myers, who says it was caused by
Goals in some ashes which were put against
the wood pile, by a Chinese cook, Of the
Railroad Hotel. The high wind which
came up towards morning uncovered the
Goals and communicated it to the wood.
The Chinese must go. They are q more
fruitful source of trouble even than is
woman.

In speaking Of the prizes awarded at the
Purim ball, we alluded to Mrs. Molinelli
as having received the first, and Mrs. Gil
lcspie the second. This was an error. Both
were really first prizes, and it was intended
to give one TO the gentleman who should
sustain his character best. and the other to
the lady who should do likewise. That
Mrs. Gillespie secured the gentleman's
prize, was altogether owing to the fact that
she performed her part 80 well that no one
on the Committee, or anybody else, had
any doubts as to her sex, and were fairly
convinced that she was in reality a man.
