EXIT THE DEMOCRATIC GAME COCK.

The Democratic journals have little to say
over the elections of last Tuesday. Instead
e trotting their game cocks to the front OF
their columns they have turned their atten-
ton to fuller reports of steamboat explosions
and walking matches. Here and there one
of the old Bourbon stripe points to the
triumph of John Kelly as an indication of
a Democratic victory in 1881, but why
such a conclusion is deducted from so meagre
an hypothesis is not just now particularly
apparent. The Democratic returns from
three Southern States give considerable
consolation to the hearts of the still unter-
rifed and unwashed, but their newspapers
Ms far as heard from have not deemed it
advisable to marshal their poultry yards in
consequence. The returns as they near com
pletion show increased Republican majorities
and present indications assure a continuance
Of Republican prestige in the affairs of gov
eminent, more powerful in the future than in
the past. On one side is seen concert of
action and success, and on the other demora-
lZation and disnay. All along the party
leaders have been shaping their next campaign
with view of placing Sam Tilden and his
hogshead of money at the head of the ticket.
His ignominious shelving i'll New York makes
such course utterly suicidal. What line of
action the party will next determine on to
free themselves from the political morass in
which they are at present fouudering, does
not forcibly suggest itself.

BILL BODEY'S BONES.

The Bodie Free Press contains the fol-
lowing characteristic sketch relative to the
anatomical remnants of Bill Bodey, deceased:
Every occasion has humorous as well as a
solemn side. Life is too serious thing to be
trifed with or thought hight Of. and death
seems to be the only episode in mans career
that puts an end to the many tragedies of his
life. Perhaps there never was funeral that
had such peculiar feature as the one that
took place yesterday. Holding services over
the remains of man that had laid Ia the
earth for twenty years is of rare occurrence,
Ever since the bones of Bodey have been IN
earthed they have been the subject of curios-
ity and comment by nearly every resident in
Bodie. Yesterday afternoon, Sc they lay in
their miniature coffin, they were closely e1-
amined by large number of people of all
classes. The skull, which had been carefully
cleaned and polished up like billiard bali,
would be taken up by miner and closely
scrutinized as if it was piece of quartz from
some new discovery. At the same time law
yer would have the old prospector's shoe tax
ing it in from all its bearings. He must have
been young man. remarked an ndividual
dressed in a canvas suit, as he looked at the
row of well preserved teeth. "A man is not

the reply of bar-keep, who had shin
bone in his hand. He was a man of firm
ness, said a carpenter. You can see the bump
is very prominent pointing to that part of
the skull, which, by the way, was little
raised, caused by the earth adhering and pet
rifying. 4 knew Bodey intimately for two
years, said an old timer from Tuolumne, IS
he picked up two or three of his ribs, 'and he
never drank drop. That accounts for his
bones being so we'll preserved replied mine

And thus the conversation went on; lawyers,

The other day three Cemstock under
takers had fight to see who would gain
possession of pauper's corpse valued at
$50. The undertakers Of Virginia City
are those sort of sensitive souls whom a
county should use every endeavor, and
spare no expense to please. When one of
them secures the contract of subsoiing a
County Hospital patient with favorable
prospect of clearing sl8 on the job, the
rest of them lie awake all the next night
planning the most feasible method for
catching the next subject. The only way
to palliate the mental anguish of these
knights of the spade and ma:tock is to
quarter the corpses for fair and equitable
division, and allow the man to be buried
in sections at S. quarter.

DISHONEST MONEY LENDERS A case re-
Gently came before the U. S. Circuit Court
of this city, wherein A sued B for the fore
closure of mortgage 1t was developed in
the course of the trial that the mortgage was
executed upon the property of man in Car
son in favor of banker in San Francisco,
as security for money loaned by man in
Virginia City. The mortgage was duly re-
corded in Ormsby county, but the San Fran
cisco banker being a nonresident could not
be made to pay the tax, while the Virginia
City man, who received the benefit of the
interest, escaped the tax collector AS his
name did not appear upon the record.
Such transaction is clearly an attempt to
dsfraud the revenue. 1t is a well known
fact that there are several money lenders
on the Comstock who have adopted this
method of loaninG money for the purpose of
escaping the payment of taxes. BY this
means they defraud the revenue and are en-
abled to loan money at less per cent. than
their honest neighbors who are endesvoring
TO transact legitimate business. A mort
gage so held is clearly null and void under
the law as it is clearly an instrument exc
cuted with fraudulent intent. The man who
adopts such questionable methods of business.
to increase his income, deserves to reap the
whirlwnd of his cupidity

The journals Of New South Wales
aye full of the approaching Internatlon-
al Exhibition in Sydney, and we are
glad to find so many American manu-
tacturers among the list of exhibitors.
Besides the usual array of sewing-ma-
chimes and printing presses, the visit.
ors to this far away exhibition will
have an opportunity of examining
American books, carpets, artificial teeth
photographs, paints. canned goods, etc. !;
totally insufficient exhibit, of course,
to give foreigners any adequate idea
Of oCr resources, but enough to show
that our people are beginning to awak-
en- to importance of advertising their
wares in other markets than our own.
If the Philadelphia Exposition was of
no more value than to show us the Gus
toners waiting for Us in every country
it would more than have paid for itself.
Ten years ago the Americans hardly
knew there was af oreign market for
anything but their raw materials, but
last year our exports of manufactured
articles reached Sl36, 100000.
There is not year in which new
market does not open for some Ameri-
can product or manufacture, aud often
in the least likely places. Who would
have predicted generation ago that
We would send butter and cheese to the
grazing Netherlands, beef to Eogland,
steel to Sheffield. muslin to Manches-
ter, watches to Switzerland, carpets to
kidderniuster, or shoes to Northamp-
ton? England is as yet our best custo-
mer only because we are better adver-
tised in England than ell l.ewhere. There
are the markets and here are the
goods. Ali we have to do to command
fair share of trade is to manufacture
honestly and advertise boldly in every
exhibition. That the distance of this
market at the antipodes has no deter
ring effect is shown by the fact that
this city ships horse cars to New Zea-
land at a cost of transportation of over
$500 each, and agricultural implements
to Australia. Let an article be the
best of its kind, and no fraud, and GUS
toners will come for it from the furth-
est ends of the world. .-Nelc York
