BALTIMORE is the most remarkable city
in America. 1t has the finest municipal
building in the country, which was built
for less than the original estimate. 1t also
has a fire department which, for the past
year, has cost SIC, 900 less than the appro-
priation for that purpose. Honesty is re-
garded as the best policy by the peoples
servants in that city.

To the Public.

The publication in a paper last evening, con-
corning the disappearance of Lena Espanoza,
does me gross injustice. The article in ques-
ton is headed " Abducted, or Driven from
Home" That the child was abducted is posi-
bly, true, but the insinuation that she was
driven away, is absolutely false. She was a
god child of my wife has been treated with
uniform kindness, and has never complained of
ill-treatment at our hands.

There will be o mass meeting at the
Court-house this evening to take definite
action ON the subject Of railroad discrimin-
tiors, and the usual resolutions will be
offered and speeches made. The gentle
men who have charge Of the matter should
see that this vital subject does not share
the fate Of the Incorporation bill, and the
whole affair, like it, be turned into q farce.
The call for IN Incorporation meeting
came from no known or responsible source,
Notwithstanding which a committee was
appointed to draft q bill, and that com
mittee has had their labor for their pay.
Not over twenty-five persons voted on this
bill on Thursday evening, one-half OF
whom do not own a particle Of real estate,
either in Eureka or elsewhere, M surely
no one will claim that they represented the
wishes Of any part Of our citizens, much
less the t~ax-paying portion, or that ou
representatives in the Legislature will feel
bound to pay any attention to the vote
xiven. In order to avoid such an error
tonight, let the resolutions be offered and
the speeches made by those whom our leg
lslators will recognize as having the right
to speak for the community, and let the
entire proceedings be characterized by such
Z spirit Of frmness and determination as
70 convince them it is no child's play upon
which they nave entered, and that they will
be held responsible hereafter should they
prove faithless to the wishes Of their con-
stituents. The Committee appointed on
Thursday night, to make the necessary pre-
parations for the meeting, is an excep-
good one, and they should see
that the matter is not taken out OF their
hands by any irresponsible person or per-
sons, whose chief object is to acquire q
little notoriety.

The IEallihan-Lynn Prize-Fighf Mt
Virginia city.

Virginia city.
VIRGINIA CRY, January "a.
The Lynn-Hallihan prize fight, with thin
gloves, came off at National Guard Hall
last night. 1t was won by Hallihan in
eighteen POUNDS. 1t lasted one hour.
Lynn was the ~favorite in the pools two to
one. 1t was for 81 900 a side and gate
money. Hallihan was in bad condition,
but his tremendous hitting won. He
forced the fight from the start. His last
blow knocked Lynn through the ropes. He
was picked up with both eyes blinded and
terribly beaten. Hallihan was hardly
scratched. The hall was packed with the
leading men of the city. After the fight a
collection was taken up to send Lynn, the
beaten man, back to Eureka. Hallihan
resides in Virginia City, and was forced
into the fight, it being his first and last.

The Pot of Gold.

4 cobbler in Somersetshire dreamed
that q person told him that if he would
90 to London Bridge he would meet
with something to his advantage. He
dreamed the same the next night, and
again the night after. He then deter
mined TO go to London Bridge, and
walked thither accordingly. When he
arrived there, he walked about the
whole of the first day without anything
occurring; the next day WAS passed in a
similar manner. He resumed his place
the third day, and walked about till
evening, when, giving it up as hopeless,
he determined to leave London and re-
turn home At this moment a stranger
came up to him and said: II have seen
You for the last three days walking up
and down this bridge may ] ask if you
are waiting for any one?' The answer
was mo Then what is your object
in staying herel' The cobbler then
frankly told his reason for being there
and the dream that had visited him
three successive nights. The stranger
then advised him to go home again to
his work and no more pay any attention
to dreams. II myself he said, chad,
about six months ago, q dream. |
dreamed three nights together that,
if T would go into Somersetshire, in an
orchard, under an apple tree, should
find pot of gold: but ] paid no atten-
ton to my dream, and have remained
quietly at my business Il Immediately
occurred 10 the cobblcr that the stranger
described his own orchard and his own
apple tree. He Immediately returned
home, dug under the apple tree, and
found pot of gold. After this increase
of fortune he was enabled 20 send his
son to school, whe,e the boy learned
Latin. When he came home for the
holidays, he one day examined the pot
which had contained the gold, on which
was some writing He said, Father, /
can show you that what / have learned
at school is of some use." He then
translated the Latin inscription on tire
pot thus "Look under, and you will
find better" They did look under and
larger quantity of gold was found. AS
the story is good one, it would be
pleasant to fancy it could possibly be
true. The Saturday Review

She Sewed on His Buttons

Old Blumner is tight,fsted Several
days ago he said to his wife: Maria,
l want you to look over that broadcloth
vest of mine and put new buttons on it,
cause I'm going to card party tonight"
"But, Ety." answered Mrs. B., 81
haven't any buttons to match that vest,
and"
"Thunder!" broke in Blummer, 1.-THE
idea of a woman keeping house as long
as you have, an pretendin' to be out OF
buttons By George! l b'ieve you'll
ask me for money to buy 'em with next. ="
That evening Blummer hurried
through his supper and began arraying
himself for the card party. Presently
he called for the broadcloth vest, and
Mrs. B., with marvellous promptitude,
handed it to him. He took it, hastily
unfolded it, and then, as his eye took in
its complete appearance he stood as one
transfxed. 1t was six-button vest,
and there were six buttons on it, and the
dazed optic of Blummer observed that
the first, or top one, was tiny pearl
hirt-button, and that the next one was
brass army overcoat button, with U.
S. cleaning upon it, and that number
three was an oxydized silver affair, and
that number four was horn button, ev-
identity from the back of one of the
Puritan fathers coats, and then came a
suspender button, and then, as tbs
dazzled eyes of old Biummer reached the
bottom-a poker chip found in Blum
mer's pocket) with two holes punched
through it-he gave Il snort that made
the chandelier jingle. There is, after
all, fine sense of humor about Blum-
mer, and he laughed till he cried. And
there won't be any button money
grudced in that household hereafter.

To Kiss or Not To Kiss.

A. Primrose writes to the Chicago
Journal in reply to "Pansy:" That is
the question, Pansy, although really
there should not be any question about
it ? Don't osculate? Is there such o
word ? No matter, | will introduce it
into cultivated society. Now, although
there may not be any great harm in
kissing, it always seems to me that those
who indulge in it promiscously are not
so clean as the more fastidious ones. 1t
may he a prejudice, but prejudices often
deserve nobler name. And generosity
is t,ne trait, but in this case I think
that mild economy is preferable. You
will inquire, perhaps: "Ought l never. to
kiss anybody = Oh, certainly but, like
John Gilpin's wife, be frugal II the
first place, | would cut off all uncles,
cousins and brother-in-laws from such
fayors, and let them kiss their own wives
and daughters. l would not kiss the
minister or the doctor, or the lawyer who
gets you divorce. Do not shower
kisses upon your girl friends, here, there
and everywhere 1t is wasting your
sweetness, and then it makes the young
men feel so dreadfully. You should
never be so cruel, if you can possibly
avoid it, and young men are SO suscepti
Bile, poor fellows. But do not so to the
other extreme, and kiss them out Of pure
kindheartedness, because it is not a
wholesome habit; and although they call
you mice girl, and Jolly girl, they
never want their own sisters to be nice
and Jolly in that way. Do not kiss the
old men, either, even if they are antique.
can old fellovlike me, you know" But
notice when you offer your modest cheek
for the venerable salute, the dear old
fatherly fellows ignore it entirely, and
kiss you right upon you lips. Don't let
them do it, Pansy 1 think, of the two,
l would sooner trust young man, now;
they are Young men have not
been SO long in this wicked world, YOU
know.

The Coming Women.

One Of the tiourlshing Fifth street
shoe stores is managed entirely by two
young ladies, Miss Riley and Miss Line
hart. Every part of the business is at
tended to by them. They keep the
books, attend 70 the stock, and open
the store in the morning and close it at
night When boxes of goods arrive
they open them with hand and Ratchet
quite as we'll as young man could do.
They give orders for new goods. About
the only duty the owner of the store has
is the not unpleasant one Of coming in
occasionally to relieve the cash-box. Not
shoe store in the city is better kept
than this one, which two girls carry on.
They are refined and gentle in their
manners, and so prompt and polite in
business that they are said to be build
ing up an enviable business. One is of
Jewish, the other of Irish descent. They
have been intimate friends for FIVE years,
having been fellow-clerks for that length
Of time. Both are the daughters of
widowed mothers, and aid largely in sup
porting their families. These excellent
girls are only another instance to show
that when woman works for living
there is always a very good reason for it.
1t is not too much to say that three
fourths OF the women who earn money
have others than themselves to support
Of triple-plated meanness, therefore, is
the spirit which seeks to restrict woman's
labor in any way whatever, or which
grudges her equal pay with man for
equal work. Cincinnati Commercial.

Lady Clerkships in Washington.

A Washington correspondent OF the
Baltimore American writes: Discarding
many extravagances, one can live here
with family for 81 200 a year, which
is the lowest salary to government male
clerks. The ladies who are in office,
save in few instances, get 5000 a year,
and with this income manage to live
very comfortably. The latter are not
householders to any extent, and fill out
q wretched enough life between their
boarding houses and offices, with the
dread future ever before them, like Dam
ocles' sword, ready to TALL and cut OFT
their official heads. | have often heard
bright young women in different sections
sections of the country long fer govern
ment position at Washington. My dear
young sister, let me dissipate such am
bilious IDEAS from your mind. Between
the bofietings of scramble for office and
the uncertainty of its tenure after you
have got it, your frail and inexperienced
sail will be rent in twain unless it is
made of the tough stuff necessary for
NOuA ONil AOittflcS ItIC -Alb
then having obtained a position, you will
find yourself merged into Il sea of petty
jealousy and strife, the ex{ent and vim
dietiveness Of which you scarcely
dreamed. The life here at best of gov
eminent clerks is not what it is cracked
up tn be, for sooner or later the official
axe viii fail. and distress is sure to fol
low. The pay, too, that the government
besIows is just sufficient to gain II com
Portable livelihood. To sum up the cost
Of comfortable living in Washington, it
may be stated that one dollar day Is
the minimum sum necessary for the nee
essary for the support Of family of
three, exclusive Of house rent and cloth
ing Housekeeping is lar cheaper for a
family than boarding. Table board is
from $l5 to $50 month, and furnished
rooms rent, according to the season, $40
to $50 month. From all this you can
perceive that Washington will compare
favorably with any city in the Union as
g desirable place of residence.

Intermission from Labor

Telnperaments seem to differ very
widely in The degree in which they re
quire intervals of intermission from
labor Not to speak OF the familiar va
rieties Of constitution with regard to
sleep, there is no doub, Il similar variety
with regard to the power Of continuing
any one kind Of effor, fo, months OF
years. We have all heard accounts,
which sounded almost fabulous to ordi-
nary minds, Of writer, of fiction who as
one novel is ended, begin another with
no more ceremony than their neighbors
making of taking fresh sheet of writ
ing naper. We see constantly before
our eyes the manufacture OF some kinds
of intellectual tissue which proceeds as
uninterruptedly as if by machinery. If
the product in such cases is not of the
very highest type, the facility of unin-
termitting production is almost as won
derful thing in its way as the power Of
occasional soaring, which belongs to q
different order of minds The minds
which produce great works at long inter
walls may, however, possess. Tor aught We
know, as great power OF continuous
labor as those who turn out mental
shoddy by the yard. Only the power is
more complex and ii we may hazard .
guess about such matters, We should sup
pose that its flow, even when steadiest.

many currents, which SO give place to
each other as to afford intervals of relax
alton for each. In any great work OF
Imagination, for instance. the creative
effort must be much more rapid and
transient than the labor of working out
details, so that the imagination may fold
its wings for long rest while the hand
is carrying out its orders. 4 highly
organized mind is like i great ship,
which pursnes its appointed course with
