Henry r. Mighels, Editor of the Car
son Appeal, died at his home in Carson,
night before last, after months Of PAIN
Jul suffering, during which time his
death was hourly expected. He was a
native of Maine, and 4S years of age.
He came to Californiain 1850, and en-
tered the army as volunteer at the
breaking out of the war. He was COM
m;ssioned by President Lincoln an As
sistant Adiutant General and served
about three years. He was wounded
in front of Petersburg in 1854. AT the
close of the war he returned to this
Coast and became connected with the
Carson Appeal, which he disposed OF to
Charles Perkins, By whom he was de-
feated for State Printer, in 1870. In
1872, he commenced the publication OF
the New Appeal, and retained the eai-
torship Of that journal until the time OF
his death. He was elected Speaker of
the Assembly in 1877 and filed the po-
sition with marked ability. Last Fall
he was the Republican nominee for
Lieutenant Governor and was defeated
by Jewett ". Adams. During the late
session of the Legislature he battled
bravely for the people against the rail
roads, both as lecturer and editor,
and won the confidence and respect of
the whole people of Nevada. The last
months of his life, when his medical
advisers informed him that his disease
was incurable and liable to terminate
fatally at any moment, were devoted to
collecting and arranging some of his
best writings, which, in the form of a
book now in the hands Of the printers,
he leaves as legacy to his wife and
helpless children. Harry Nighels was
a true friend and generous Zoe, man
who had many political and no personal
enemies.

ANOTHER BEIGE COMING. .
what "a scientist Argues HAY Happen
Any Moment.

A Belgian Professor has published
work in which he says that we may
be on the lookout for another del9ge Of
the world. The Louisville Courier
Journal says the Professor argues that
at certain regularly occurring intervals
the waters of one hemisphere are sud-
denly precipitated across the equator
and flood the other. The last Of thee
deluges, which always flow from north
to south, was that of Noah's time,
which was from the north. Hence, the
explanation of the preponderance of
water in-the Southern Hemisphere, and
Of the general southern trend OF North
and South America, Africa and. many
minor peninsulas. The next of these
will flow from the south to the north.
The cause, he argues, is the alternate
increase and consequent change Of the
earth's equilibrium. Since l2iS tie
South Pole has been constantly enlarg-
ing. while the North Pole has been pro-
portionateIy diminish ng, to-day the
diameter of the southern glacial being
about 5000 miles and that of the north
ern 1863 miles. When these two
glaciers shah have arrived at their
maximum and minimum extensions,
then will the earth tilt over nd be
submerged by another great extension,
the fifteenth of the kind that has De-.
Cured. In view of this impending
and somewhat serious probability, the
question arises: What are we going to
do about it? II no one can offer a
better suggestion, would it not be adj

The Cherry, Creek Independent, a
paper recently published in white Pine
county, alluded to III. A. Comins, a
Senator from that county in the late
Legislature, as "bribe- taker," in con-
sequence of his having voted for the
railroads and against the interests of
the people on all measures affecting the
roads which came before the Legislature
. last winter. A few weeks ago Grand
Jury was empaneled at Hamilton and
indicted A. V. Hoyt, late publisher of
the Independent, for libel. The Ward
Reflex of last Saturday says the indict-
ment was obtained in a remarkably
suspicious and underhanded manner.
Neither the District Attorney, who
was the legal adviser of the Grand
Jury, nor his deputy knew that the
Jury was investigating the case, and
che first intimation they had of the
matter was when the Grand Jury pre-
sented an indictment of Hoyt to the
Court. No witnesses were summoned
in the case by the District Attorney.
That officer was treated with silent
contempt by the Grand Jury, and the
officer does not even know what hired
attorney conducted the prosecution
before the jury and drew up the IN
dictment, or. who, paid him for his
services.
1t seems almost incredible that seven
teen men, possessed of the requisite
qualifications for Grand Jurors, could
be found in an interior county in Ne
vadss through which no railroad runs,
sos completely under the control Of cor
porations and their tools as to indict a
man, without even advising the District
Attorney of, the fact, for publishing,
what he undoubtedly believed to be
the truth about member of the corpo-
ration governed, pledge-breaking and
ar,hestaking Legislature, which conven-
sd In Carson last winter Is it posi-
BE that WhitePine GrandJury, chosen
By the District Judge and one Of the
County Commissioners from the body
Of the people, sold themselves, as so
many of the members Of the Legislature
PROFESSIONALLY did, to the corporations

much less advice, of the District Attor-
ney, who had the courage to publish in
his paper, what nearly everybody in
the State believes, that members Of the
late legislature sold their votes to the
corporations? Good and true men, diff
fer honestly on party issues and politi-
principles, but the course of the recent
Legislature of the State, and the ac-
tion of the White Pine Grand Jury
should teach the people that they had
better pool their issues, so far as Ma
tonal party questions are concerned,
and combine for protection against
power, which, not only controls the
Legislature of the State, but can inau-
ence Grand Juries, without the consent
or knowledge OF their legal advisers, to
procure indictments against those who
have the courage and independence to
assert that members of the Legislature
were bribed to break their pledges.
