Government Financial Matters.

The Treasury estimates will reduce
the debt $l2,0O0,OOO at least this
month.
The revenue fo: the past year has
been over 81 900 900 for each working
day. namely, 1884. 100000, against
1884 ,n00,0 900 IN 1879, despite the re-
| dnction OH tobacco.
There is being received at the Treas
ury Department quite an amount Of
|old 7.30 notes, redeemed in 1868.
These notes were convertible into 500
bonds before the date Of redemption,
and it was SO printed on their backs.
With some Of the notes comes the re-
quest that they be converted into $50
bonds. This cannot be done. and tile
notes are consequently paid IN money,
with the accrued interest up to 1868.

The Carson ( Nev. appeal say, that
on Thursday last Alanzo Zaletto, an
Italian fisherman, discovered petr-
fed woman at Cascade Lake among
the pebbles of the shore. The petri-
faction weighed nearly 200 pounds.
aud more unsigltiy object could not
well be imagined. 1t was brought
DOWN to Lake Biglcr in the afternoon,
L. J. Wilson, Of San Francisco, has
offered $40 Tor it, as he wisfes to
present it tothe Academy of Sci

tears ago the Indians had 4 battle at
cascade Lake, in which the sqnaws
oined, aud the dead were buried on

AN Illinois paper says: The Dem
ocrats in Illinois appear to be making
abont the liveiest campaign they
have engaged in for many years.
They are encouraged by the strength
aud popularity Of both the State and
National ckcts. and by evidences of
Republican, lnkewarmness and dissen-
ton. They feel that the election OF
Gen. Hancock is almost certain, aud
that the success IL the Democratic
ticket in Illinois is not only possible
but daily becoming more probable.

MINERS are not in the habit of throw
ing up good contracts, says the Salt
Lake Tribune, but the Ada mine in
Sake Creek is idle ut present. In
driving the tunnel. strange torma-
ton was encountered. At every
stroke Of the picks the tunnel was
filed with voluminous val or, and
tha weird light made the blood chill
IN the veins Of the supers,tious miners.
They call The rucL 'hcll-iire rock and
give the tunnel a wide berth.

New YORK, October THE Herald's
Dublin special says: Mr.. Parnell has
formed an alliance with the physical force
party. The Land Leagne and Nationalist,
or Fenians, must hereafter be considered
friendly organizations, working side by side
for a common object. The agitation is no
longer merely q land movement; 1t be-
comes more far reaching, and it would be
difficult to conjecture the result. The
Fenians hope for an open rebellion. The
Land League is firmly expected to obtain
home rule, and it would be idle to deny
that if a general strike is made against
rents. which becomes more and more prob
able every day, the movement Will be well
nigh irresistible, for the entire army OF
England could not evict the people; and II
they could, the landlords would be still
deprived Of rents, and would also be OBJ
liged to pay the cost of enforcing the law.
What with land leagues on one side, to
keep the people infamed, and secret So
cieties on the other, to intimidate AMI occa-
sionally commit an assassination, such a
state of affairs has been created as no Irish
rebel ever before contemplated. No Eng
lishman, at present. realizes the direction
which affairs are taking. 1t is beginning
to be realized in the North, where the idea
gains ground that the Southern agitation
threatens to become a separate movement.

G~ARFIELD's silence about the rebel
claims is becoming more significant every
day, and it is impossible to hide its dam
aging importance as a factor in the Presi-
Dental campaign. There is no way of
expelling him from the Senate when he
claims his seat Oh the 4th of next March,
because he has refused TO pledge himself
against voting any more for rebel claims,
but it is encouraging to reflect that a
Democratic majority in both branches of
Congress-, and a Democratic Executive in
the White House, will render futile any
effort on Garfeld's part to tap the Treas
ury for the payment of rebel claims.

SAN Francisco, October 6.-About 4 p.
m. William B. Darlington, porter for
Dickson, De Wolf l. Co., and Michael j.
Mcdonald, head salesman of Blake. Rob-
bins & Co., entered a saloon on Halleck
street, known as Billy's Bureau, and called
for drinks. While the barkeeper was pre-
pairing them Darlington drew a revolver
him almost instantly. 1t is rumored as the
cause of the act that McDrnald had Sc

Burned to Death.
GRASS VALLEY, October g. Tuesday
night about midnight, VIM. H.. O'Brien,
who lived in a cabin near the edge of town,
was burned to death. 1t is supposed that
the man must have been intoxicated and
by some means set the cabin on fire while
sleeping. George Crandall, who lives near
him, was returning home when he discov-
cred the burning building. He ran and
broke open the door when out walked
O'Brien enveloped in flames from head to
foot. He uttered no sound. but walked
back and forth with hands folded. Gran
dali procured some water which he threw
the man, when he fell to the ground
and remained in a sitting position for a few
minutes, and expired. The remains were
charred and blackened beyond recognition.
His flesh was fairly roasted, in places the
bones of his legs were visible. Deceased
was an old resident of this vicinity.

Mr.. Sharon, the Chinese, and the
Miners.


Frem the Virginia Chronicle of the 4tl
Mr.. Sharon's organ said yesterday:
1--WE said plainly that Senator Sharon
never attempted to introduce Chinese in
the mines, and, as an employer of miners,
never came in conflict with the Miners
Unions. Our contemporary lodges the
question when it attempts to dispute our
assertion by reference TO the employment
Of Chinese by a railroad corporation Of
which Mr.. Sharon is only one of several
stockholders"
Mr.. Sharon could have had the Virginia
d Truckee railroad built by white labor If
he had SO desired.
The miners had their own interest in
view when they forbade Mr.. Sharon to
bring the Cinnamon into Storey county.
1t would not have taken a dollar out OF
the miners pockets If Cinnamon had built
the entire road.
Why, then, did the miners interferef
Simply because they knew that il they
permitted Mr.. Sharon to bring Cinnamon
into the county to do one kind Of work, it
would not be long before he would try to
to employ them in some other.
The miners feared that Mr.. Sharon in
tended to put the Cinnamon into the mines.
This is why the miners marched down to
the county line and kept Mr.. Sharon's
coolies out of Storey.
Everybody knows this, and Mr.. Sharon's
organ is foolish to attempt to deny what
everybody knows.

AN Eastern exchange says that among
the humors Of the campaign are the mys-
terious figures 1922" which are making
their appearance in different parts of the
country. and in every conceivable and
inconceivable place. Yesterday they
made their appearance in New York, and
struck dismay to the stalwart Republi-
can heart. OF course the Garfield men
regard the affair as an outrage, and, if it
were possible, would wave a bloody shirt
over it; but, somehow, the figures stick,
and will not out. They are becoming as
universal as the once famous but now
forgotten fifteen puzzle, and from the
West, whence they started, have trav-
eled persistently along, to the infinite
discomfort Of the Republican brethren.
Who chalks them in every nook and
Granny Of the cities is not known. Per-
haps there may be a regular 329 army,
who have taken upon themselves the
task Of thus freely advertising Mr.. De
Golyer Garfield. Or perhaps it is the
ghost OF Cakes Ames walking in per-
turbed spirit in search of that little
- loan, -
