The P.rsesas Bs.sns.

The benefit Of Mrs. Portsous, at
Pipsr's Opera House last evening. was.
as II deserved to be. . financial success.
II was nons the less q musical treat, and
demonstrated anew the fact that Virginia
has a considerable amount OF musical
talent Of . high order. In fact, many
professionals have not done a. well on
that stage a. did the home talent Of last
evening. Mrs. Ralston not being able
to take part in the concert, Mrs. ]. A.
Stephens volunteered TO I'LL her place.
Mrs. Stephens has uuquesionably
the best trained voice on the Comstock
and her style OF execution Is Of very
high order. She is always correct and
reliable. Her voice Is OF Q very even
register and is sweet, musical and OF
sufficient power to be distinctly heard
even in the soitest passages; yet 1t has
none OF that metallic ring which refuses
to blend with other musical sounds.
She should appear oftener on the
amateur stage. Miss Gates has . quiet
method both in singing and playing,
which is most agreeable. Tho fact Is
the little woman il full OF music. The
piano. under her manipulation. seems
full Of delicious harmonies. which she
simply allows to flow out unbroken and
spread among the audience. The piano
duet between her aud Mrs. Layton was
the instrumental feature Of the evening.
By the way. Mrs. Layton should not
have allowed the even and extended
registers OF her voice to have been silent

whether as q c~ontralto or mezzo soprano.
She deserved the encore she received to
her song "What will you do, Love,
When I am Gone" and the response
'Swsst Memories Of Departed Days"
was most favorably received. Mrs.
Portsous has improved wonderfully
within the last few months. Hers is
high soprano voice; and now that she
seeks to become q professional, she will
allow Ms in all kindness 10 soy that she
should diligently cultivate her lower
register. As for the rest, time, study
and training under more competent
teachers than she has yet had will 90
complish 1t. The manner in which she
rules her voice add the ease with which
she sings show that she has
had extended practice. A little
more feeling would also render her voice
more sympathetic and pleasing. Con.
sidcring her advantages, her vocalization
is almost marvellous. She sang Com.
ing through the Rye" last evening
much better than usual. and the song
Answered" written for her by PROBES.
sor Dellepians, showed wonderful indie
pendsnce and execution for n as yet
but an amateur. She fairly won the
encorss and the floral tribute which fol.
lowed them, and the rendition OF eco
stasy." Her "Last Rose Of Summer
was artistic. AZ was her solo in "lnfia-
matus." The skill Of Professors Pas
more and Dellepiane as musicians 10 too
we'll known to need mention. The
youthful talent Of Belle Smith and
Crosby Whitman is apparent. The
bonnie Doom quartet wal q pleasing
feature Of the evenings entertainment.
The tune Is q little sad. but &C sweet as
to be always more than welcome. The
whole programme was perhaps too artis.
tic for q promiscuous audience, but to
the educated ear and cultured taste most
acceptable.

Senator Booth Crltieises.
WASHINGTON. May Ex-senator Booth
to-day made some very severe comments
on Secretary Shsrman's letter to Senator
Bayard. written to oppose his action.
Sherman said "Is 1t not better that
any deficiency in the revenues DO hon.
sstly and openly met by the issue Of
bonds, il necessary. rather than by in
direction to increase the debt at the sac
rince of the good faith Of the nation 2"
The paragraph embodies three distinct
insults to n House Of Congress.
Booth said : Nothing in the estima.
ton Of our Secretary 10 20 honorable
and 30 open. and 30 desirable. a. the
issue Of bonds. Having gained for him.
self the credit Of placing 0 part Of the
indebtedness Of this nation In four per
cent. bonds, he seems to have entered
into q partnership with Wall street to
impress upon the people the idea that
he is paying the national debt out OF his
own Pocket [laughterl by 'indirsction.'
Mr.. President" he said, III say that
the Secretary Of the Treasury knows
land no man knows better) that this
eight millions Of o special reserve
IL not held, and he does not intend to
use II for the purpose Of redseming tho
fractional currency. The 'indirection'
in the whole transaction is that he
desires to contract to that amount and
makes use Of this law for doing 1t, and
takes shelter behind the letter OF the
law to do that which tho spirit OF the
law neither authorizes or contemplates.
I repeat what / have said before. that
this money has been obtained for the
Treasury by the sale Of bonds. II IL
lying there a. idle and dead capital, and
We are called upon by the Secretary OF
the Treasury to meet this, which hs calls
an excessive appropriation. either BY the
imposing OF additional taxes or By the
sale OF additional bonds. II this re-
sumption policy Of ours stands upon 80
nice a point that the issue OF this S.

il and build up n on a more solid
foundation, that will not be disturbed BY

formerly OF this section, are furnished
by the Bodie Neps: Sunday morning,
about 8 O'Clock, . man hunting for
stock about three miles south Of the
Sojournsy mine. suddenly came upon
the body Of q man lying dead upon the
side OF the hill. He Immediately con.
vsyed the information to q camp OF
wood.choppsrs, who returned with him.
Ono Of them, John Hale, came into

in q perfect state OF repose, the head
resting ON a smooth rock, over which
had been spread o handkerchief. the
hands crossed on the chest, and q re.
yolver resting loosely in his right
hand, apparently placed there after
tho hands had been placed on
his chest. One chamber OF the
pistol was empty. The limbs OF the
murdered man were lying in a straight
and natural position. On examination
Of the body there was found q gun-shot
wound entering high up on the right

the butt Of the left ear. Tho upper eye.
lid Of the left eye was torn loose and
hanging by the outer corner. There
were three small abrasions Of the akin
ON the upper portion OF the forehead,
and the forefnger OF his left hand was
bruised and laosrsted. His purse was
found about twenty feet from the body,
lying beside the trail. with only ten
cents in it. The body was brought to
town and identified al that OF John
Stiegsl, who was well and iavorably
known in Virginia and Gold Hill, where
hs had always borne q sterling reputa-
ton for honesty, industry and sobristy.

About 10 o'clock Sunday night . few
Of the residents OF the western part OF

near the Continental Oil house were
confronted by several shot guns, eaoh OF
which had O man at the rear end. They
wsro told II was not time for them to 60

town. One OF them having been Q scout
in early days, concluded to reconoitrs q
little and taking q circuitous route back.
observed about one hundred men In the
vicinity OF Bragg's lumber yard, all
masked and armed with various kinds OF
FIRE arms. A squad Of men proceeded
TO the cabin Of o man by the name OF
Spears, situated on the bank OF the mill
ditch, nearly opposite the oil house, and
lust as they reached the cabin Spears
came out and started to run. He was
quickly captured. however, and
upon searching the cabin several
Indians were found t~horsin-also some
empty whisky BOTTLES, and q bottle
containing liquor. The Indians were
taken along 10 opsofve .no soicnni'y VI
the proceeding. and Mr.. Spears was
taken to an open field and treated TO .
dose of tar and feathers, which 80 COM
plstsly changed his appearance that for
moment 10 did not recognize himself,
and could not tell whether he Wal IN
Illinois blackbird or Q gray eagle.
At the time Of the capture OF Spears,
another mar, whose name 10 unknown.
made his escape from the cabin. and
though he was pursued, was not over.
taken.
For some time past Dur town has been
full Of tough characters, and many OF
them have made . living by selling
whisky to Indians. and drunken squaw
6ehts have been Of daily occurrence
Tho vigilance Of the officers has bean
eludsd, and probably this prompted the
Brigade to do their work.
