A FAM0gs FELINE.

Posthwmeus SotorActy OF Levy's Cat.
The Virginia Enterprise tells this tale
Of the first cat brought to Humboldt,
which died last February, at n. Levys
store
Except that of age, eighteen years,
apparently without any valid claims to
distinction or renown, the cat quietly
passed away. We were not told that
she was particularly gifted in musical
wav, that she ever led the orchestra of
midnight bandits, or that she was at
any time the object of hatred and boot
jacks. All this is precedently possible,
and it is Also possible that she had pro-
vhled hundreds Of hardy pioneers with
pets for their cabin fresides, in the
shape of kittens, the sight of which m
more than one instance reminded them
of other scenes and other hear hstones.
But in the modest notice of her death
given in the SILVER STATE, at Winnie
nucca, nothing OF all this was set forth.
She had died eighteen years old. That
was six weeks ago. To-day that is the
most miscellaneous cat imaginable.
She has died ut Eureka aged twenty
one and full Of honors as a base-range
fighter. She petered out at Phoebe at
twenty three, cornpletely covered with
scars and one eye gone. They buried
her at Tucson, Arizona, as became a
heroine Of 40. The young man who
wrote her obituary in Saa Francisco,
got his facts from the man who caught
her at Deaths Valley in 1850. When
she began to 20 East she became fam
Gus. At Chicago, Kit Carson used to
pet her, and she was ten years old at
shat time. In st. Louis John c. FIRE.
mont carried her across the plains in
the early days, and she had once
whipped wolf. At Detroit she was q
regular General jackson, Tom jefferson
cat, with the marks OF hundred bat.
ties upon her, and thirty-eight years
old. When she arrived in New York
she was the cat Comstock had in his
cabin or tent, when he discovered t.)
The great silver lode. AT Baltimore
she was minus one leg-taken by bear
had no tail and was yellow with
years. Then she went to Pittsburg
and became the cat that the Spaniards
took TO the Mission" And we notice
now that the newspapers are bringing
her back. She is now in the hands of
the hends of the Leadville press. And
yet this cat lived a peaceful life and
died quiet death at Winnemucea
about six weeks ago. Who doubts the
power of the pressg

wines for Females and InvaIids.

1t is well known that there are cases
when the most strict advocates of temper
auce are obliged to use some sort Of wine,
especially those who are old and inhrn.
Many weakly females as well as invaltls
and debilitated persons in warm weather
need Il little strengthening wine. The great
difficulty has been iu procuring a rich wine
that is reliable. There ave many case,
where wine would be used to great aivant-
ye in place Of alcoholic drinks if only q
genuine article could be had, and upon
which phyicians could rely as being strictly
pure, without alcoholic admiXlure. The
Port Grape Wine Of Alfred Speer, of Passlc,
New Jersey, has been analysed 10y chemists
in almost every State, aud has always been
proved strictly pure and beneficial This
wine is now being used N hospitals and in
families for medciuil purposes, also in
churches for communion services. Mr..
