TIE WEArHBk-The weather yesterday
almost tempted the APPEAL to Announce that
Spring had come We have raised so many
false hopes, however, of late that caution pre-
dominates over the disposition to predict. The
weather may continue sunny and the air
possibilities of a rousing old fashion snow
storm inside the next twenty four hours are
not least worthy of being considered. There
| is bank of clouds behind the Sierras which
may at any time bring forth tempest and
big snow. No man who owns sleigh should
think of selling it before the fourth of Jaly.
REMEDY FOR COLD FEET.-A lady writes US
to knew of some cure for cold feet. Remove
the stockings just before going to bed and
wash the feet in chloride of potassium after
which hold them firmly against a red hot
stove until the chill disappears. Three appli-
cations week will be quite sufficient.
TIE REFORM CLUB.-At meeting of the
Reform Club held last evening, it was ordered
that there be a call of the citizens of Carson
1t the old Theater to morrow evening at 80
for the purpose of taking into consideration
the reorg ,nization of the club.
CORRECTION. - The APPEAL contained an
item few days ago to the effect that the V, Il
T. road disbursed s., 500 en- pay day. The
item was copied from Virginia City paper.

ATTENTION The greatest wonder yet dis
covered in medicine is Mrs. DIR. Howe's
celeprated rheumatism, neuralgia and tooth
ache cures. Would you rather suffer the
pain of having a tooth drawn than buy
bottle of Mrs. DR.. Howe's toothach medi-
cine? Mothert should not be without it for
their infants. A few drops in little sweet
ened water to swab a teething baby's mouth
will instantly relieve the little sufferer.
The medicine does not cauterize, and is very
pleasant. Sold by all druggists. mh7

WE CAN'T TALK

Without showing the condition of our teeth.
Every laugh exposes them. In order not to
be ashamed of them let us use that standard
dentifrice, SOZODONT, which is sure to
keep them white and spotless. No tartar can
encrust them, no canker effect the enamel,
no species of decay infest the dental bone.
if SOZODONT is regularly nsed. It is a
botanical preparation, and its beneficial ef-
fects on the teeth and gums are marvellous,
as it removes all discolorations, and renders
the gums hard and rosy. MI

OPIUM SMOKING.

To Alfred Helm, Foreman of the Crane
Jury: We have given the opium law and bust
ness our attention. The physician is not ex.
pected to prescribe until he has made dag
nosis; neither can oar people proper Y apply
remedies to regu.lte wrong without first un-
Outstanding its nature
1t is, perhaps, well known that the habit of
opium smoking and eating is fearful vice :;
| eHectually and almost Irretrievably stealing
the strength and intellect of our young
making youth Il sad mistake-a fearful and
unequal stru sgls--au ever present regret and
Shame, C, ushing the very germs of manhood
producing imbecility ard premature death
Tins Oriental monster has planted bis feet
upon onr Western shores, carrying in one
hand elvs,an dreams, in the other the shackles
of slavery, leaving IN his path stupid and an
nerveG victims taken mostly from the ranks of
our boys.
This business is conducted so candestinly
that it is difficult to reach. This vice when
once fastened upon Its victim generates for the
vendsr a perpetual silence, and SO the evil
dence against him is buried with the vice of
his creation. Our Sheriff and his officers are
Gonna endably the alert, but their vigl
lance cannot avail go long as technoalities and
legal sauibbles are permitted to thwart tke
ends Of justice and the will of the people.
The opium law at best is insufficient to
meet the requirements. 1t should be SO amen
ded as to make the finding of an opium smok-
ing outfit sufficient evidence to convict the
occupant or occupants; and alse to punish the
eater and smoker of opium and make proper
provision for the wholesome care of the fall |
ing and fallen. Oar prisons, of necessity |
never can have but little of the elements of |
formation.
RR1ORhATORY SCHOOL.
As measure in this direction we earnestly
call the attention of our people to the neces-
sity of an enactment authorizing the con-
structon and providing for the maintenance
Of Mechanical Reformatory School, to be
constructed somewhere within the limits of
this State, wherein the useful employments
IF life can be successfully taught.
Such an institution is imperitively de-
handed 1t can be made self sustaining
This is more apparent when We consider that
,ar articles of furniture, agricultural imple-
nents, vehicles-in fact, nearly all our con-
'eniences are manufactured elsewhere that,
90, whilst our boys are actually tired of idle
less and seek in too many cases reaction and
excitement in the fumes of opium.
With such an institution the victim of opium
night become the ward of the Commissioners

STOCKS.

The whole market was weak yesterday.
Belchsr opened out with drop to 81. Not
only were the Comstocks off in price, but the
Bodie stocks did not come to the front with
the activity that has characterized them Of
late. The Columbus stocks were strong, CON
sidering the state of the market. There was
a slight improvement in the second session.
Belcher advanced to %, Mexican to 10. Chol
lar to o. The other stocks held at about the
same rates as in the previous session.
The arrest of kearney, and the evident
determination to push his case to speedy
conviction, if possible, and the probability
that others of his sort will be dealt with in
like manner by the officers of the law, cause
a much better telling to prevail and hope for
return of the confidence so much needed in
the stock business as well as all others.

tory School for a term of years prescribed by
law. Thus the germ of this and kindred hab-
its would likely be crushed, the victim re-
deemed and made proper conservator of the
rights to be practiced and held sacred by all
intelligent people only.
Have We transcribed our instructions by
indulging this suggestive mood 7 If so, we
have but one apology to offer, and that is in
the interest of humanity and against a COM
mon and clandestine foe.
Let the people at the coming election so
speak by their ballots that officers of the law
will understand that they mean to guard the
best interests of our future soverelgns, and
instruct our Legislators to make such enact
ments as will be wholesome and effective.
With proper legislation faithful administration
of the laws and care becoming US as peo-
pie we may be able to avert the worst calalni
ties of this fearful vice, and our young criml-
mails will yet bless the power that saved them.

We have closely and carefully examined all
the books of the Sheriff, kept by the present
incumbent, from the beginning Of his term to
the end of the last quarter, aud 1t is with
great satisfaction, as well Some pleasure to
us, to be enabled by the evidence found by a
thorough examination of all departments of
the Shertfs Office, and the action thereof, to

Hill a most faithful and efficient officer

NASHVILLE, Tenn, May 4.
The convention tosmorrow will
be the largest one the republicans
ever held in Tennessee. Nearly
every county in the state will be
represented. Already delegates
from every county in East Tennes>
see, except Sullivan and Cooke, are
present.
The prevailing sentiment in
Middle and West Tennessee is for
Grant. A large portion Of East
Tennessee is anti Grant. A vote was
taken on the Nashville and Chatta-
nooga train, yesterday, just as it
was leaving the latter place. The
number of delegates on board was
sc, and of these, 3S were for Grant,
30 for Blaine, 10 for Washburne,
and 3 for Edmunds.
The prospect is that a candidate
for governor will be nominated, al
though there is some opposition.
Hons. j. M. Thornburgh and l..
G. Houk will go to Chicago as
delegates-at-large.
ASSOCIATED PRESS REPORT
NASHVILLE, May 4-The hotels
are filing up with delegates to the
republican convention, which meets
here tomorrow to nominate a cans
didate for governor and select dele>
gates to the Chicago convention
The indications point to the largest
republican convention held in this
state for years. All the prominent
leaders are here. The impression
prevails that a majority favor
Grant, and Grant delegates will be
sent to Chicago, and perhaps in
structed for Grant.
The strongest candidates for the
gubernatorial nomination appear
to be Judge Arch. Hughes, of
Maury, Judge T. G. Muse, of Mad.
ison, and Hon. Alvin Hawkins, of
Carroll.

SAN Francisco, May AT a
meeting Of the board of supervisors
last evening, the Judiciary CONS
mittee, which had been instructed to
take into consideration the utter.
ances and addresses of Mayor Kali
loch and report the proper action to
be taken by the board, filed a long
report, reviewing the history
of the labor agitation and
the part borne in it by
Kalloch, finding that he has encour
aged the lawless and discontented
element, advised them to parade the
streets, and endeavored to keep
them in such disposition and tenn
permanent as to commit an outbreak
whenever it should suit his purs
poses. That he has impeached
the honesty of the whole commun-
ity, accused the various branches
of the city government of corrup-
ton and direlection of duty, and
under the pretense of counsellir &
mobs against violence, insidiously
advised them to be in readiness for
bIoodshed and the overthrow Of
authorities. They recommend that
prompt action be taken to vindicate
the fair fame of the municipality by
judicial inquiry into the KalIoch
case. A motion to adopt the re-
port was put by Mayor Kalloch,
who announced that by viva voce
vote it was carried.
The roll was then called, result
ing in unanimous vote for its
adoption. A resolution was then
adopted, authorizing the finance
committee to cause judicious pro.
ceedings to be instituted against the
mayor for his removal from office,
and empowering them to employ
counsel and prosecute the matter
to a speedy termination,
Throughout the reading of the
report and resolutions, Kalloch
appeared cool and unmoved, seem
ing to consider only the dignity of
his position as presiding officer Of
tho board,

Executive Mansion, May 4, 49,"
AT the cabinet meeting, Sccre-
tary Egarts read a communication
from the United States minister to
Mexico stating that two Mexican
officers pursued two deserters across
the border into Texas, fred upon
them and accidentally shot fe,
male, and that the officers were
arrested for the violation of both
federal and state laws. 1t also
recommended that the officers be
released from any inconvenience or
punishment that might follow, as
they were acting without intent to
violate the law. 1t was decided, as
far as federal jurisdiction goes, that
they be released, leaving it to the
state Of Texas to decide as to the
violation of the state law. Cd.
Capt. Howgate's Arctic explora,
ton, just authorized by congress,
was also considered. The bill pro-
vides for fifty persons in all to 60
on the vessel from the army and
navy. Both Secretary Ramsey
and Secretary Thompson were a
little doubtful about detailing
men for this service. They con,
cluded that before taking any steps
they would visit the vessel in which
the expedition is to be made and
examine her thoroughly aud see
what provisions for the protection
and comfort of the exploring party
are to be made.

to-day, confirmed the following

Several nominations for census
supervisors were rejected by the

as contrary to the non,partisan
spirit of the census law.

SEA FIGHT.

PANAMA, April 24.-A Star and
Herald Lima letter of the 14th
states that on the 10th a Cbilian
fleet announced its presence in
Callaco bay by sending, before
daylight, torpedo launch against
the Peruvian corvett Union, which
was anchored well in shore. But
before the explosion. it ran danger-
ously near the United States steamer
Alaska, and the Italian frigate
Garabaldi, and escaped warm re.
ception from the somewhat anxious
people on those vessels. The ap-
proach of the launch was perceived
on board the Union before the ex,
plosion took place.
A heavy fire of musketry, and
from the ships Gatling guns, opened
on the stranger, causing her prompt
ly to retire. When morning broke
the Glance, Encolodo, Armascar
and a wooden corvett and AIRY amos
and Pllloomyo were in sight. The
Lamech was sent off from Blanco
with flag of truce, and was met
by boat from the Union, the Chil-
ian delivering dispatches announcing
that the blockade of the Calaco and
adjacent bays and ports was estab,
lished, and the time of eight days
conceded for the departure of al
neutral ships. The diplomatic body
in Lima made the request that th,
time be extended to fifteen days
which was granted.

VIRGINIA..

New YORK, May A -pecial
from Richmond, Va, states: ga
fire occurred this morning between
5 and 4 o'clock in the suburbs OF
Ohristiansburg, by which Martha
Jones, colored, and her five
children were burned to death.
The woman is believed to have set
Gre to the house herself for the
purpose of destroying the whole
family. She was evidently de-
ranged. She refused to give en-
trance to any person to the house,
and by the time it could be broken
into, the fire had obtained such
headway no one could enter.
