HOW TO FILL THE CHURCHES.

So much do we feel the Influence of the
Lenten season that we do not wait for Sunday
to cali the attention of our readers to such
phases of religious life as may be at hand
wherever found Even when they turn up
in a profane and worldly minded vessel like
the New York Herald, their reproduction is
not to be withheld. Under the head Of How
to ELL the Churches, the Herald of recent
date says:
One of the good stories of the late war was
that of the colonel who, on hearing that a
hundred men of a rival regiment had gone to
church, promptly swore a compound oath, de-
tailed twice as many men and sent them to
the sanctuary under a sufficient guard. 1t
has been one of the disadvantages of peace
that no such vigorous religious measures have
been practicable, but an acceptable substitute
is suggested by the experience of the jurors
in the Smith murder case in Jersey City
They attended their respective houses of wor-
ship yesterday, each one under charge of a
constable. When this report becomes noised
abroad we doubt not that the Church will be-
come the main bulwark of the jury system
and that statute compelling all juries to be
drawn late on Saturday nights will fully meet
the views of the unco guild. The only draw
back to the complete success of the plan will
be found in the small number of jurors avail
able at any one time, and it may become an
honest question whether, for the sake of ex-
tending the good work, it may not be advis-
able and excusable to hire abandoned charac-
tiers to slaughter few hundred superhuous
citizens and thus increase the supply of Jury
men If the system had nothing to recon-
mend it but the forced attendance of the
constables it would still be inestimable, for
whatever influence can put the average
officer holder within sound of the Word will
be putting the Gospel where it is least known
and most needed.

AUSTIN ALARMED.

OF the burning of some 2, 800 cords of wood
by an incendiary fire at Austin on Tuesday
night last, the Reese River RereilLe of March
5 says:
Last night, soon after twelve o'clock, an
alarm of fire was raised, and our people, with
Reno's misfortune fresh in their memories.
jumped out of their beds eager to ascertain
the cause of the alarm. The fire bell was
tolling rapidly, but no fire could be seen
Presently light shot up into the sky from
the direction of the lower end of town The
wind was blowing up the street, not very
hard, however, but sufficiently fresh to Gre
ate temporary panic. The town in ruins was
anticipated by more than one Their fears
were allsyed when the news spread that the
fire was in Dinsmore's wood pile, at the foot
of the grade. A stampede in that direction
at once set in, and in very short time there
were hundreds of persons on the spot ready
aud willing to do what they could. Our
water pipes do not reach that far down BY
half a mile, and there is no water in the i'm
mediate vicinity, consequently the only means
of saving anything was by laying hold of the
wood and carrying it to windward out of the
reach of the flames The fire had gained
good start before the arrival of many persons,
and the heat soon became SO intense that a
respectable distance between the workers and
the destroying element had TO be maintained
About forty or fifty cords out of the two hun
Grsd were saved, but all the hay was burned.

EASTERN KILOGRAMS.

Washington, March 7.-Opinions are al
most universal that the extra session of Con-
gress will be long, few predicting that ad
Iournment will be reached until July, and
Secretary Sherman expects it will be continu-
GUS till March 1880. An ugly deadlock is
the President Of the Legislative Appropria-
ton BILL with the amendment repeating the
election and test oath laws All important
bills, including the Chinese bill, which have
ldst failed, will come up again. On the whole,
the Democrats look forward with great mis-
gjyings to the extra session, which will solidify
the Republicans. Even Conkling is ranging

aize the Democrats, especially if they insist

SECRETARY SHERMAN'S ENMFTY TO
THE CARSON MINT.

Hon. john Sherman, of Ohio, is President
Hayess Secretary of the Treasury. This gives
him power over the MINIS of the United
States He does not like to see the Carson
Mint in operation. He thinks that 1t is wiser
to establish mint IT New Orleans, two thou
and miles away from any silver mine, than to
sustain this one which stands under the very
shadow of the Comstock. Just why Sherman
entertains these eccentric notions nobody has
vet come to explain. We suspect, however,
taat the Secretary is moved to his enmity to-
ward this very useful institution because of
want of sympathy between the Administration
and our Senator'S When Hayes had made up
his mind to annoy Senator Conkling by filling
the Federal Offices at the Port of New York
with the Senators enemies, Mr.. John
Sherman sided with the President. Not so
with Senators Jones and Sharon. They stood
by Conk ling-as it was the manful and honest
part to do. And so, to wreak petty spite
upon our Senators in Congress, Mr.. Sherman
takes steps to starve our little Mint to death.
There is called an extra session of Congress.
It will be somewhat remarkable II our Sen
ators, cooperating with Congressman Daggett,
cannot devise some way by which to prevent
Mr.. Sherman from striking this foul blow at
the silver producing interests of our State.
Let them make this speciality and much can
be done to checkmate the malevoent pur-
poses of the greedy Secretary.
The closing of the Carson Mint, or its
serious gripping would be very disastrous
blow not only to the local interests of Carson
but those of all western Nevada, as we'll Not
only is the considerable disbursement of
money among employees and those who fur
1tish Supplies an important item, but the con-
venience of the Mint to our bullion producers
is a matter of great Importance, 1t is to be
hoped that our representatives, i'll Senate and
House will make a strenuous movement to
avert Secretary Shermans purpose.

of their track, where the Depot Hotel stood.
Mr.. Chamberlain was telegraphed not to build
on his old site as the G. p. Company had use
for the ground We also learn that it is alto
gether probable that the c. P. will make
Reno the eastern terminus of the Sacramento
Division Should Reno be made division
terminus both companies will work more or
less together, thus making saving over the
expenses attached to running separate shops.
A greater saving to the c. p. will be by having
less men employed than at present in Truckee
and Wadsworth by the concentration of their
forces at this place We do not make these
statements as positive authority, but as plans
now under contemplation, with every pros

GENERAL FREMONT'S FAMOUS RIDE

At daybreak on the 22d of March, 1S47 =,
Lieutenant Colonel Fremont, then an officer
in the dragons, accompanied by his friend,
Don Jesus Pico, and one servant, set out
from Los Angeles to proceed in the shortest
time to Monterey, on the Pacific Coast, dis
tant full 400 miles. The way was over
mountainous country, much of it uninhabted,
with no other road than a trail and many de
files to pass. Each of the party had three
horses, nine in all, to take their turn under
the saddle The six loose horses ran ahead
without bride or halter, and when wanted
for change were caught by the lasso The
first day he rode 125 miles the next day they
made another 1875, passing the formidable
mountain of Santa Barbara, and counting
upon it the skeletons of some fifty horses,
part of near double that number which per
lshed in the crossing of that mountain on
Christmas Day, 1886 That night they rested
at the home of Don Pico. Here the nine
horses from Los Angeles were left and eight
others taken in their place. They started at
eleven o'clock, rode seventy miles, halted for
the night, and the fourth day ont entered
Monterey at two o'clock in the afternoon. On
March 26fh Fremont set out on his return.
The afternoon was already we'll advanced
when they started, and only thirty miles was
tiuse that evening. The second day out Col.
Fremont's horse carried him ninety miles
without a change and without apparent
fatigue. Thirty miles more were ridden that
day, and then the night was passed at Don
Pico's house. The next day the party set out
for Los Angeles on the same nine horses
which they had first started out with, and
reached that place at four o'clock on the Doth
of March. The whole distance of 800 miles
had been gone over in $50 hours, or at the
rate of five miles an hour, day and night
The actual time spent in the saddle was not
more than 100 hours On this ride the grass
on the road was the food for the horses, none
of which were shod -N Y Times

PARsoN MCkELyEY's FOR1 UNEs. The Re

Kelvey's fortunes and misfortunes as fol-
lows:
Rev. G. McKelvey escaped the late caam-
ty, for q wonder Before he came to this
country he was in grasshopper afflicted
country, and for two years he saw not only
his own but his neighbors property swept
away almost as clean as if fire had visited
them. Then he was transferred to this State
and stationed at Virginia City He had not
been there long before fire came and
burned him out of house and home Recov-
ering from this, in few weeks the great
Virginia fire came and away went everything
he possessed in the world, and with it every
hope of recovery, for his people were as sadly
not be raised For the three years he was
stationed at Virginia he was out at least
s., 900. Coming to Reno he set to work and
did good thing for the NJ. E. Church in the
way of repairing The big fire came and for
wonder he escaped, but like good Samar-
itan he threw open the doors of the parson-
age and gathered in the homeless until the
house was filled to overlooking He made
speciality of gathering up children, and many
a child, forgotten in the excitement, was taken
IN charge by him. Now his whole time is
with his duties as member of the
Relief Committee. But how he managed to
escape the fire is mystery. There must be
something wrong

OF the meanest woman on record the Reno
Journal of yesterday morning says:
A few mean acts are given as having oc-
CURED during the fire. One is quoted where
a woman refused to pick up young child
lying on the porch of threatened building,
unless the frantic mother would give her a
dollar. The dollar was paid and the heartless
wretch saved the child. Some of the tramps
charged exorbitant rates to carry goods to
points of safety, while many freely rendered
the use of their wagons without cost To take
advantage of ones dire extremity is little
wore than to whip ones mother.

MONEY In CIRCULATION.

AS the conviction has become general
that the country has reached the bottom
of the hard times and begun already the
ascent of the hill of prosperity, the vol
ume of the currency becomes matter of
moment in all future calculations. Is
there to be a rush to the top of the hill,
or will the ascent be made slowly and
surely? How speculative period can
be avoided it is impossible to tell. Con-
sidering the volume Of the currency,
which is in excess of any other period
in the history of the country, the very
condition exists which renders specula-
ton inevitable. The purchasing value
of American currency to-day stand at
S734,00O.O0O,00O, which is S23.0O0,-
900 more than last year, and S8S,000,-
900 more than in 1872. the year before
the panic. Even in 1866, the year be-
fore the panic. Even in 1865, the year
when the issue was the largest, the pur-
chasing value was S42,0O0,oOO less
than now.
PROFESSIONALLY the country can util-
ize larger volume of currency now than
it did ten or twenty years ago. The
great increase in population demands a
larger volume, still the fact remains that
we have two dollars for use now where
we had one in 1860. If the country had
money enough then it certainly has
enough now. That there is enough now
cannot reasonably be doubted for mo-
ment, and any increase, whether of
greenbacks as the greenbacKers demand,
or of silver as the silverites demand,
would only bring about condition of
imitation with all its attendant evils of
wild speculation and disastrous collapse.
With the present volume of currency,
aggregating in gold, silver and paper
nearly billion dollars, the country will
require great steadiness to avoid plung
ing headlong into speculation. Strong
speculative symptoms are already appar
ent in the great centres, and they art
certain to be rapidly developed as thu
country moves into the new era of bust
ness prosperity that is dawnlng upon it
"Out of sight out of mind is an adag
peculiarly applicable to hard times ant
their lessons. We shall need to cast
backward glance often in the COMM
months and years if we would have tn
country avoid the speculative perils @
prosperous times.-Nashua Telegraph.
