EXPULSION OF JEsUIfs.

the following preamble and resolutions
Whereas an unjust and unholy persecu-

iigious institutions In France. thus affecting
tie whole Catholic world therefore be 1t
Resolved, 1, That we desire to express
our deep sympathy with the Jesuits OF
France in the persecution under which they
are now struggling, and to protest, in the
name Of religion and justice, against the
great wrong done TO those faithful servants
OF the Church in raking up against them an
edlict obsolete for over two hundred years,
thus depriving the Catholics OF France OF
the invslaable services OF the holy and gift
ed sons OF ST. Loyola.
2. That we also desire TO express our
sympathy with the other religious orders Of
France. which are threatened with similar
persecution at the hands OF the present
French Government, and to deprecate the
action on It's part which Is seeking to de-
prive the Catholics OF France OF the iDesti-
mable advantages which the presence OF
these orders confer, aud, at The same time,
by an uurighteous persecution, to rend
many homes by depriying them OF posses
sion Of property which they hold by every
right and title.

vention and referred IN the proper commit

The Alta

The Alta deal has proved equally disas-
trous to many Of the inside mining sharps
as to the well-milked, unsophisticated
class known as the outsiders" In this
instance, says the San Francisco Stock Ex-
change, no quarter was given to any one;
the net was dragged with a remorseless
hand and the victims have been all sorts
Of fish from the gullible sucker, up. The
~plodding hod-carrier and the aristocratic
millionaire have equally become a prey to
the rapacity of one Of the most wholesale
and ingenious swindles perpetrated in all
u mining annals. And yet, the crime
technically is not " grand larceny" nor a
case Of obtaining money under false pre-
lenses" nor are its principals, accessories
and sbettors likely very soon to take lodg-
ment in San Quentin. On the contrary
we expect that they will shortly occupy a
more prominent position than ever in
financial circles. II the law can reach
them, they should be punished or made to
disgorge; II the law is powerless, it should
be so remedied as to deter the preparation
Of such swindles in the future.

Assessment work is usually postponed

Assessment work is being done ON the

The Five-Twenty mine at Spring Valley

Billy stowell is doing the necessary as

Very encouraging developments have re-
Gently been made in the Sterling mine.
Baron Rothschild is doing assessment
work on the Carlotta and Minerva mines.
Mendes & Mckenzie are doing assess.
ment work on a claim near the California

Probably Frozen to Death.

The Helena Independent Of the 10th
inst. says: The settlers near Pearce's sta
ton are considerably alarmed concerning
the possible fate Of Q man named George
W. Moore, who is well known in the vicin.
ity Of Alder Gulch, where he has mined
for fifteen years. He was last seen about
400 yards from Silver Bow at 8 O'Clock on
the night of the 9th or 10th inst, since
which time no tidings Of his whereabouts
have been received. Parties Of men on
horseback and afoot have secured the hills
between his cabin, in German Gulch, and
Miller's, but nc trace Of the missing man
could be discovered. As his disappearance
occurred during the cold snap last week,
grave fears are entertained that he was
frozen to death.

Big woodpiles.

With the exception Of the Richmond and
Eureka Con. Companies, the County
Dads" have the largest woodpile in Eureka.
On account Of fires, we doubt II it is good
policy to place SO much wood in the
rear Of the Courthouse, and particu-
larly So, as Monroe street, in the rear Of
the Courthouse, is quite narrow. Should
a fire occur north of the Turner House,
with the wind blowing down the canyon,
as is usual on such occasions, the county's
woodpile would not only be consumed, but
the great heat from it would endanger
much other valuable property in that To-
cality. The Commissioners possibly may
have had some motive in piling it in the
rear of the Court-house-that Of having il
handy for the poor Of the town, that they
could the more readily help themselves
to it.

Runaway of n. Tratn.

Santa Claus headquarters, at the Post
Office News Stand, is strewn with Christmas
goods, from garnet to cellar. Among other
things upon the counter was standing a
railroad train, yesterday. The mischiev-
GUS ~youngster, Cornelius O'Keefe, slid q
bunch Of lighted matches under the boiler
of the engine and away went the outfit;
down off the glass showcase; into a toy
kitchen, paralyzed the cook, and upset the
range; rushed through q livery stable,
breaking up a dray and disjointed the
necks and legs Of half the stock therein;
run against q mule-with a niger on his
back. The mule let drive with his heels;
the mig darted, head foremost, into a crib
full of babies, but the shock from the
mules heels checked the engine and train
so much as to allow Messrs. Beard and
Davidson, who were in hot pursuit, to
"nab" the outfit just as it was striking
the un~derpinning of the wax doll-the on
with the red dress on. The accident has
rather depleted Davidson's stock, but the
genius of the establishment, with his
pot Of glue, will soon fix things. The en-
CINE and cars have been sold to the Ante
lope Springs R. r. Co.

A Business that the Legislature
should Endeavor 10 Suppress.

A Business that the Legislature
Should Endeavor to Suppress.
From the Silver State OF the 2lst.l
Chinatown was in commotion yesterday.
The cause Of the excitement was the dis
covery made by a Chinaman, that his
woman, for whom he paid some $500 or
$500, was stolen. 1t was supposed that
she was taken to Dutch Flat, California,
and kilograms sent to relatives Of her
bereaved owner at that and other
places along the railroad to look out for
her. Heretofore it has been the custom
when a Chinawoman ran away for her
owner to swear out a warrant for her ar
rest for larceny or some other trumped up
charge, so as to get the officers to bring
her back, after which the complaining wit
ness would refuse to appear against her.
The experience of Bow Ling, q heightened
Celestial, who made q business Of hunting
up fugitive Ohinawomen, has ended that
manner Of procedure in this part Of Ne
vada, as he was indicted for perjury by o
Grand Jury in this county, and was saved
from conviction for perjury by death. 1t
is a we'll known fact that all the China
women in Nevada, with rare exceptions,
are as much of a mercantile commodity as
cattle. They are bought. and kept by their
owners for the basest purposes. The laws
Of the State prohibit slavery, yet those
women are bought and sold, and if they
escape from their owners, the law is fire.
quently resorted to by their owners to as
sist in getting them back into bondage.
The Legislature should pass a law prohib-
iting, under heavy penalties, the purchase
and sale Of Chinawomen In Nevada.
We have been informed to-day that the
Chinawoman was abducted by some Car
son Chinese, and that Jack Larthen fol-
lowed the kidnappers to Mill City and res
cued the Chinawoman. who, it appears, in
this instance, was not willing to so with
her abductors, by whom she was gagged
and bound hand and foot.
