French Phrases.

The French have a great tendency
to cherish sayings and phrases which
were uttered or are believed to have
been uttered by celebrated men.
This proneness is due in part to a
pardonable kind of national vanity
and in part to certain fitness 10 the
French language to adapt itself to
brief, telling epigrammatic sentences
and phrases. Multitudes of such
examples are to be met with, found
on sober scrutiny to lack verification;
nevertheless they live and seem likely
to live in spite of criticism. LA

A Reporters Work Of Art.

Sam Davis of the Virginia Chroni-
Gle. has painted another picture-a
marine view. In the foreground a
monster wave dashes upon the break
ers, while fleet Of sailing vessels is
seen in the offing. The inevitable
ea-gulls are also there. The sky is
quite powerfully drawn, the crimson
tinting of the setting sun struggling
with the somberer shades of the
Fastening darkness, or (probably),
with the rain-laden messengers of an
approaching storm. The work was
a genuine and pleasing surprise to
his friends. This is Mr.. Davis's Sec
ond effort IL that line.

The steamship p. Coland, which
arrived here to-day from Rotterdam,
picked up the shipwrecked crew,
twelve in number, of the Norwegian
bark Columbia, bound from London
for Quebec. The bark was struck by
large fish or sea monster and had a
hole knocked in her bottom, which
caused her TO fill and sink in half an
hour. The water around the vessel
became bloody Immediately after the
shock was felt. The men had barely
time to escape in the boats.-New

A Cow Lives Three Weeks With
out Food.

A COW belonging to Donehey, of
Mt. Pleasant, was missed about three
weeks ago, and the belief was that
some one had driven her away. She
was found on Friday wedged in the
railroad culvert within one hundred
and eighty yards of the depot. She
was taken out in an emaciated con-
dition, and, though having nothing to
eat for three weeks, still lives.--Iowa

BRIEF MENTION.

to erect saloon and lodging house
at Como.
George Sherman has been elected
Vice President of the Silver City
Miners Union.
Willie Farr, of this city, killed
rattlesnake having six buttons and
rattle, on Mount Kate, last Saturday.
Foreman Bluett is making arrange
ments to resume work in the main
south drift from the Sutro tunnel at
an early day.
The truly good DIR. Banks Nc
Kenzie is, it is said, taking steps to
"raise the wind among his admirers
GU the Comstock.
The fare to Como, by Barton s
Sunday stages, has been fixed at
SO so from Virginia, So from Silver,
and 81 90 from Dayton, each way.
Constable Hill is at work on a new
arrastra opposite the Justice works.
This will be the fourth arrastra
erected in this district within a year.
Mcclellan, the artist, has just com
pleted portal. of Victor Hugo.
The poet is shown sitting in a chair,
his left arm resting on a table. 1t is
very good likeness of the great
author.
G. N. Fox, the engineer whose
hand was badly injured by being
caught in the machinery of the Ex-
celsior mill, about ten days ago, is
getting along well, and expects to be
able to resume work in about two
weeks.
The first regular stage to Como, last
Sunday, had good load of pass
engers and freight. George Barton,
the owner of the stage, says that he
has two full loads already secured,
and he will probably have to put on
another stage in a couple Of weeks.
James Dealey, Of the Carson SAFE
rae, has secured the lease of the bar
at the Fair Grounds in Reno, during
the approaching State Fair. Mr..
Dealey, is of the better class of

real pleasure to drink at his bar.
Complaint is made thai the operator
in the Western Union telegraph office
in Gold Hill neglects his business to
such an extent that dispatches from
this city are sometimes not received
there for hours after they are handed
to him. Unless there is some i'm
provement in this respect, and that
soon, headquarters will be notified.
The recent appreciation in the
price of California stock is attributed
to the discovery of four-foot vein
Of rich black sulphuret ore in the
north drift on the 2150-level of the
mine. The latest report from head
quarters stated that the new vein had
been driited upon, north and south,
for seventy feet, and showed uniform
quality Of ore.
1t has been resolved to postpone
the date upon which all who work in
the Sutro tunnel shall be compelled
to exhibit their cards of good stand
ing in either the Mechanics or Min
ers' Unions, until the ninth of Octo-
Der. BY that time the tunnel en-
ployes will have been paid of, aud
none will have any excuse to refuse
to comply with the rule.

was dissolved by mutual content,
last week, oil the dancing question.
Many OF the young ladies composing
the club belonged to the different
churches and while they see no
harm in the private, social dance, yet,

es disapprobate il, and hence they
chose to regard the more weighiy
aud responsible obligations to their
churches, TO tho pleasures Of the
dance. There win DO two clubs in
the future, in each Of which will be
clustered the beauty and intellect of
the town, the one permitting dane
ing, the other entirely social and in
tellectual. While we have the high.

aud accord to each the right to lcl

and wliilcwc regard the restraint as

Down and Out" Mr.. Davie.

What will be thought now when it
is known thai Our State Commission
cr of Horticulture, Agriculture aud
Statistics has actually LETT his office
in the hands OF subordinate while
he acts as president of q fertilizer
company? How Incompatible, too,
are the two POSITIONS? Are we 10
suspect that all the putting given 70
certain formulas in the sundry month
lies and the Two annual reports Of
the Commissioner were merely meant
to prepare the minds OF the farmers
for the goods which The Commissions
er. was himself preparing TO manutac-
ture and offer for sale? Then Mr..
Davie has been getting two thousand
dollars per year from the State with
which 10 advertise his private bust
ness. This of course will not meet
the approval of the farmers, aud no
one will recognize this fact sooner
than The Commissioner himself.
The Commissioners also informs the
farmers by circular that he is dealer
in agricultural implements, seeds,
groceries. etc.--allogethcri too much
business for one burdened with the
cares of a responsible Office. We
commend the Commissioners for be-
ing candid enough to put his name 10
Ids business circulars, and suppose,
OF course, he does not mean TO hold
10 his office. AT any rate we will ex-
pect The dealer III fertilizers, agricul-
iural implements, seeds, groceries,
etc, to "slcp down and out from an
office so evidently inconsistent will

Inorjer 10 give emphasis to the
suggestion thus mildly laid down, We
