From the Virginia Chronicle.
The Lewis bill was then strangled, and
we think there is no injustice in saying
that Governor Kinkead is largely to blame
for il. 1t seems impossible that he should
not on Monday night have known the crit
ical situation Of the peoples interests, and
the conclusion is irresistible that the
special message was sent in with the delib-
crate intention Of frustrating the passage
of the Lewis bill. Judge Lewis, its author,
is often spoken Of as q prospective candi-
date for the United States Senate. So is
Governor Kinkead.
AN INDICTMENT TIC SERVANTS.
From the San Jose Mercury.
There is no State in the Union u no
country in the world where servant girls
get such remunerative wages as they do in
Nevada. As much as $40 . month, with
board, is not an unusual price to be paid In
that State for servant girls. Besides all
that. the chances Of their getting married
in that country are not equaled on this
side of anywhere. An old maid has in Ne
vada the same inducements, OF greater,
than an old bachelor has to emigrate to
Massachusetts,.
THE LEOISLATUhE.
From the Carson Tribune.
In the history Of the State of Nevada
there never was u more harmless body con-
gregated at the two Houses. Physically,
the members compared very favorably with
any previous Legislature, and mentally
they were, as a whole, equal to preceding
Lawmakers, but unfortunately there were
no competent leaders among the majority.
and the consequence is, the State derives
but little benefit from the laws enacted.
NEWSPAPER ADVICE.
From the Gold Hill News.
The good advice Of newspapers is seldom
needed until it is too late. The Reno GA
zette" talked itself out of breath on the
question Of greater protection against fire.
The warning was not needed, and the fair
riverside town Of Nevada has received a
blow from which she will not recover for
months.

The rain continues, and during q portion
OF the morning has com down in torrents.
About half-past seven O'Clock there was .
heavy thunder shower outside of the bar,
breaking badly, and many vessels outward

STOCKTON, March 6.
At 20 minutes past 6 o'clock this evening
Jim Hopkins, . notorious car-robber, made
his escape from Jail In this CITY, and as yet
has not been captured. It is customary to
air the blankets Of the prisoners daily, and
to shut the prisoners up for the night at
half 4. At 6 O'Clock, when Jailer
CHM lighted up, Hopkins called from his
cell, saying that his blankets, and those Of
Clark, another car-robber confined in the
adjacent cell, were in the yard. The
jailer opened the " cells. and Clark
and Hopkins got their blankets and re-
turned, and threw them OF the floor in
the corridor and commenced to quarrel
about them. The ~jailer's attention was
called by one of the men, and as he turned
Hopkins grabbed his hands, took him into
his cell, threw him upon the floor, took the
keys away, and held him until he was ex-
hausted. They then put him out Of the
corridor and locked the door. Hopkins
opened the cell Of Hank Gassett, also ac-
cussed Of c~ar-rcbbery, but be refused to go.
Before Jailer CHM could get to the safe for
his key for the corridor door on the first
floor, Hopkins had got out and scaled the
wall. He passed through the Courthouse
yard and Peyten's saloon, and thence north.
He has thirteen indictments against him
twelve for car-robbery and one for jail
breaking. Three years ago he turned
States evidence on the same charge and
was released, and his three comrades we're
sent to San Quentin. He is q n old con-
vict and has served several years in San
Quentin. His true name is Charles M.
Childs.

TWO KISSES.

When I made q visit home,
And stole up stairs, good fortune leading.
I saw. or rather thought l saw,
My sister in the study, reading.
With noiseless tread ! forward crept,
With schemes Of mischief most imprudent;
And leaning DER the arm-chair's back,
softly kissed the gentle student.
She turned to fly with burning face,
As II . brothers kiss polluted
Rapture I Twas not my sister Lu,
But Cousin Amy I'd saluted.
OF course 7 then began TO beg
She would excuse my having kissed her;
Protesting that. upon my word.
l really thought 1t was my sister.
A conversation followed next,
Whose theme, be sure, was not the weather;
And then = very blissful pair
S~eated-welI. rather close together.
And Amy, with her rougish way,
When for the second time 1 kissed her,
Said, archly looking mp tc me,
Are you quite sure it's not your sister y

Levi Wagenseller, OF Philadelphia, while
eating his dinner, let his false teeth slip
part way down his throat. A physician
told him to drink a glass of gin, which

only went a little further down and lodged
immovably, in such q way as to prevent
anything passing into the stomach. He

THE TRADE Of 0BEAT DWAEAhNs
That the trade Of Great Britain Is not
improving. as was hopefully anticipated at
the close Of the year. is proven BY the off,
cial returns published by order Of the
Government In the month Of January
there has again been . considerable de-
cline both in the imports from other
countries and tho exports Of British and
Irish produce. The imports during Janu'
sry, 1879, reached . total Of f26. sac, o46,
comparing with $50, coo, s56 in January.
1873, and with lS2, s99. $50 in the cores
ponding month Of 1877. The exports are
officially valued ct kl4,1s6.5is, - against
els, AZ, sii in 1878, and fi5.s46.O0 Q in
1s77. The principal decrease in imports
was in grain and meal, cotton, Seeds
wheat, foreign wines and Lumber. In I'M
refined sugar. tallow and wool there was .
slight increase. As 10 exports, there was
. decrease in tho month Of January OF
xS06,l7S in cotton manufactures; Of 1885,
29l in iron and steel; Of f1l2,79S in cotton
yarn, etc.; Of fS1 ,S2S in hardware and

there was . slight increase. The total

LETTER FROM KANSAS.
GREAT BEND, May 10, Is

GREAT BEND, May 10, 1879.
Mr.. Editor Perhaps I can best
answer the many enquiries of my YER
mont friends through the columns of
the MONITOR, which greets them early
in the week, but arrives here as very
welcome visitor on Saturday.
The spring has been unusually back
ward and the amount Of rain very light.
The early sowed wheat is headed out,
but large amount of the winter wheat
was killed by the winter weather and
spring drought. The land has been
planted to corn, and the prospect is that
a very large acreage of corn will be
grown. One of my neighbors is putting
in one hundred acres of corn, others are
putting in nearly as much. Having
other work on hand, [ shall till only
about fifteen acres this season. The
past winter was remarkable here for the
amount of snow that fell, though it
would have been nothing for Vermont.
Immigration is immense here and the
country is rapidly filling up with set
tiers; the trains are all loaded, and the
caravan of emigrant wagons that are
moving through the country indicate
that the tide of empire is rapidly
moving on its western way. Some Of
the Immigrants bring sufficient capital to
buy large areas of land, other have come
out for the purpose of stock raising, on
the stock ranches. 1t is remarkable in
how short time some have made COM
petence in this new country. l have
one neighbor who came here poor, few
years since, who last year raised 5000
bushels of wheat, and counts his cattle
by the hundreds.
But there are others who came here
without capital, that get discouraged
and cry down the country, but if a man
has sufficient means to carry him through
the first year, and has energy and gump-
ii on enough to live anywhere else, he
can live and prosper here. But if one
thinks this is an Eden where a man car
live in idleness, he will find his mistake
| think, however, that this is rightly
named 1.-THE garden of the West" TIL,
climate is excellent; the water is gooC
and abundant; the soil is all that cal
be desired society is good; in ever,
location where there is settlement o
sufficient size there are good schools ant
first.rate school-houses, and churche
} keep pace with the pioneer in all direc
2 tons. Land is cheap. The rallroa
D lands sell at 81 per acre, one-fourt
down, the balance on time. Other land
n farther from the railroads are cheaper
y and there are thousands of acres in a
o directions, unoccupied which can be use
e for cattle grazing.
. While 1t is somewhat hard to endul
e the inconvenience and privatlons inc
dent to new settlers, | am looking fo
: ward with bright hopes and expect
e thrive as others are thriving here, if

THE DEATH-RATE of our country is
getting to be fearfully alarming, the av-
erage of life being lessened every year,
death resulting from the most insignif-
can't origin. At this season of the year
cold is such common thing that we
are apt to overlook the dangers attending
it until it is too late. Thousands lose
their lives this way every winter that
might have lived had they used Boschee's
German Syrup. For all diseases of the
throat and lungs, use Boschee's German
Syrup. Every druggist in this country
will tell you of its wonderful effect. OIL
