taries on tho Stand.
NEW York, April 16.-In the Stanley court
martial, Gen. Alex Mcdowell McCook said
he asked Gen. Stanley why he pushed Gen.
Hazen so, and he said Hazen was trying to
worm himself into the new administration;
that the people in Washington did not know
Hazen, and he Stanley proposed they
should know him, because the first thing
they were aware of he would push himself
into brigadier generalship, and this Stan
ley proposed to put stop to. He thought
Col. Stanley made no threats against Hazen,
but meant he would proceed officially against
him. Stanley did not say anything about
an agreement between him and Hazen that
he should say nothing against him. Col.
Stanley's language was unfavorable to
Hazen, but ii was spoken in a very agree
able way. Stanley said he told Hazen at
Fort Rice that he was coward and liar, and
witness thought it was at Crittenden's table,
Stanley said his main object was to prevent
Hazen's promotion at Washington.

TO PREVENT FRAUDULENT ENTRIES.
The bill introduced to-day by Mr.. McDon-
aid to prevent frauds in the entry of lands,

as were recently made, and nearly proved
successful, in regard to very valuable prop
erty near Chicago. It provides that no en-
try shall be made or patent issued for any
land in any State in which United States
land office is not maintained, ex-
cept upon compliance with the
following, among other specified conditions
precedent: The applicant must lie in the
office of the clerk of the federal court
sworn petition setting forth not only the
boundaries of the tract, and the means by
which he proposes to enter at, but also the
names of all occupants of any land within
one mile thereof, and the names of all per,
sons who may appear by the records of
deeds of the county, to be interested in any
lands situated within said district of the tract.
All these occupants and other parties interest
ed are to be summoned to contest the applica-
ton if they desire to do so. and no patent
land office until after the receipt of certified
copy of the final decree in the cause thus
instituted. The bill further provides that
bordering on non-navigable lakes or ponds
shall be the same, so far as Congress has
lower to grant or declare, as those of own
ers of lands bordering on navigable waters.
MORE PETITIONS.
Members of the House confined filing pc
titions to-day, accompanied by bills of all
descriptions, for the purpose of having them

measures placed in the petition box to-day.

If the four per cents are disposed of as
rapidly as desirable upon the new terms,
Secretary Sherman will save in the sale of
the $3.50, 100000 more than $1,OOO,OOO to
the government, which will largely COM
pensate for the double interest which he is
compelled to pay under the law during the
three months which the calls run. Under
the new arrangements the holder
of uncalled 10-40s will receive in exchange
their bonds at par, per cent. bonds at
993s. The ten dollar certificates will still be
sold at par in exchange for lawful money, by
the treasurer and assistant treasurers and
postmasters, who have been designated for
that purpose, and commission of one

out respect to the amount sold in any given
period.

How the "Globe'' Does Public Work and

The disreputable Minneapolis morning
paper affair published in this city now con-
cedes that the auditor simply complied with
the law in publishing the detailed expendi-

even that mendacious affair could not gain

did not, after all, give the full detail
of the very important poor expenditure,
which made over three columns in Hennepin
county and only four lines in Ramsey.

The BoYs.-Again ask, are a certain
class of parents in this city entirely powerless
to control the actions of their young sons ?
At any hour after dark until long past mid
night boys fifteen and sixteen years of age can
be found in saloons and at other places where
! they are sure Of learning no good If these
| boys should in after years become outeasts
from society, which they certainly will, as
sure as the sun shines, their short hted,
over-lndulgent parents can take the blame
upon themselves. The boys referred to learn
nothing at school, nor will they learn trades;
their sole ambition appears to be to ape the
rough and bully, and to frequent places where
they can acquire the most ruinous vices Tn
less their parents will curb their passions while
yet there is time, the youngsters will cost the
State many dollar for criminal prosecutions
ANOTHER WONDERFUL FIND Perhaps some
smart Alec may think the following is ro- \
nance ii. +. Burnham writes from Monitor
to friend in this city, that on Tuesday last
the remains of William Hawald were being
dlslnterred for the purpose of shipping them |
to relatives in Sacramento. Upon opening |
the coffin the contents were found be in |
most beautiful state of petrifacton even the !
hair and shroud were petrifed. The figure,
features aud folds of the grave clothes, were
as hard as iron, and looked as clean as if cut
out of marble block. The air had no detri-
mental effect on the petrifed corpse, and upon
standing against a support, it looked as a
marble statue. The body had been buried
little over eight years How is that for one

EpIToR APPEAL: 1t seems that "a Mem
Der of the Reform Club" has taken exceptions
to my article in regard to selecting a Presi-
dent of the club fear the OK growing story
in Webster's spelling book applies to this cor
respondent, who says complimentary things
of General Edwards, but, perhaps, is not too
modest to fit them to his own case. He knows,
OF ought to know, that General Edwards has
time and again asserted that he would not be
candidate for reelection, and l believe the
General to be man of his word. The writer
is fully aware of the fact that the Carson
Reform Club els an organization of itself, )"
and would most appropriately nominate and
elect its own officers :" but is this "organiza-
ton of itself too independent to receive even
a suggestion made in civil and friendly way
The club in the near past has not been too in
dependent to receive financial favors at the
hands of the Ladies' Union," of which fact
this Reform correspondent, l doubt not, is
aware. But this subject is perhaps of no
great interest to ma ority of the readers of |
he MORNING APPEAL, so I'll drop it, hoping |
n the meantime that the discussion has pro-
iuced some good in creating an interest in the
election of new officers for the Reform Club.

CLEAN VISITORS. On Friday morning two
young Remedies came to this city to pass
pleasant day, which from what can be learned
cannot be done in Reno. During the day
they seemed to conduct themselves in very
quiet manner, and enjoy the privilege OF
spending few hours in the garden spot of
the State but after nighfal they gave way
to the customs which prevail at the place
whence they came, and got pretty drunk. AT
an early hour yesterday morning they were
found by friend who had been anxiously
looking for them, laying against the shed in
the rear of the Ormsby House, fast asleep.
Thew were awakened and taken to barber
shoe for bath and general clean up, as they
had to return to Reno on the first downward
train. Upon examining what was supposed
to be their respective exchequers, they found
them depleted-not sous was found in either
of their pockets. They swore that they had
been robbed-but we guess not they only
want to give our town bad name.
THAT SKULL.-Some incredulous people
have doubts as to the existence of the skull
reported to have been found at depth of
thirty FIVE feet, ia a mine near Wellington's
station. As we were not present when the
skull was excavated, We cannot vouch for the
depth from which it WAS taken, any more
than what was stated by our informant, John
Bartlett, who had it in his possession on the
evening when he passed through here for
San Francisco We saw the skull and twas
in all its details as described in the APPEAL
ANY further reflections upon our well estab- !
lished veracity will be met with coupe and !
