AYOOB KHAN.

The victory of Ayoob Khan will
have the effect of bringing this young
Prince of the Barakzai house promi-
nently forward as an active participa-
tor in the guidance Of events in East
ern Afghanistan. Up to the present
time he had held aloof from the ma
chinations at Cabul and Candahar,
and the view had become general
hat he was either personally incom-
petent or Indifferent to the progress
of affairs. Both opinions are now
shown to be fallacious by the success
of the Herati army, and Ayoob Khan
will henceforth occupy a prominent
place in the imagination of the Afghan
people as their most successful cham
pion. While his rame win undoubt-
eddy sarve to give innraasod cohesion
to the National Party, his birth, to-
gether with the promise of ability
now afforded, will tend to make him
among his followers the natural sue
cessor Of his brother Yakoob. Where
as he had up to the present remained
in the background, circumstances
have now brought him prominently
forward, and in the future settlement
of Afghanistan the role he will play
must necessarily be an important one.
Ayoob, so far as our information
goes, is the son of the late Shere Ali,
by the daughter of the Momand chief
of Lalpura, thus being the full brother
of Yakoob Khan. He was born in or
about the year 1851, and took part in
the campaign of 1878, which result
ed in the triumph of Yakoob, and the
restoration of Shere Ali to the throne.
His name was not mentioned, how
ever. until a much later period. In
1871 Yakoob had fallen into disfavour
with his father, and had for safety
Withdrawn from Cabui. In the fol-
lowing year he retired to Seistan, and
soon afterwards, gathering round him
a small band of adventures, among
whom Ayoob was prominent, he at
tackled Herat and expelled Shere Ais
governor. Until the closed the year
1874 Yakoob ruled there in indepen-
dent State, and he was assisted in the
task of government by his young
brother Ayoob. In the year mention
ed the well-known attempt to recon-
Gle the conflicting pretensions Of Shere
Ali and his son was made and va
koob went under a safe conduct to
CabuI, where he was arrested and
cast into prison. During his absence
he had left Ayoob in charge Of Herat,
but the prompt measures taken by
the Ameer and the skill shown by his
General, Omar Khan, made his rule
there n of very brief duration. & On
the approach of Shere Ais army. he
fed to Persia, where he was granted
an honorable reception, and allotted
a pension by the Shah. From 1874

A NEVADA CAMP.
Where wood Is SEQ u Cord and water
Five Cents u Gallon.
Virginia City (Nev J Enterprise.


Candelaria is without doubt the
| toughest and most uncomfortable min
ing camp in Nevada. The houses,
what there are of them, are poorly
built, and the cold wind that has been
blowing for the past few days goes
through them as it would through Il
sieve. A great many people still live
in tents. Wood costs $50 cord and is
scarce and poor at that. 1t takes II
capitalist TO keep n fire going here.
Water rctails II five cents Il gallon, and
is hauled in wagons from Columbus,
eight miles. This water is not very
good, being impregnated with alkali,
but the average Candelarian doesn't
care much for that, the majority of
them prcfcrring beer, which by the
way is sold at Il bit drink in many
of the saloons. The whiskey is of
good quality, SO You see that we are
not altogether without the blessings of
civilization. At present the camp is
enlivened by the presence of II lot of
Bellville people, who are here attend
ing the preliminary examination of
Child Brummett, who killed Billy Bell
in Bellviile last Thursday. The kill
ing occurred in front of the Bcllville
Hotel on Thursday evening. Bell
went to the faro game where Child
was dealing Wednesday night, and
put s. on the layout. Child said: 81
don't want TO play for YOU Bell
said 81 have been after you for three
years and | will get you yet. | would
like TO have six bits dozen for whip |
ping such fellows as you. You think !
you are fighter because you licked
drunk in Austin" The next day they |
passed each other and didn't speak. !
At o'clock in the evening Child was |
walking up TO the hotel from Jack |
sons. Bell came up from the other |
corner of the street. Child got 10 the
porch four or five feet ahead of Billy. |
Child had taken two or three steps on |
the sidewalk and Billy had one foot on
the sidewalk in the act of stepping up
when Child turned and shot him in
the neck The ball went through the /
collar buttOn-hOle of the shirt and was
taken out from the shoulder blade at |
the back. Pick-handle Gulch is the |
name of the real mining town Of the
section, being located in the ravine
directly below the mines.

A CHANCE TO MAKE 900.

Mr.. JEWELS committee has fine op-
portunity to add 81 600 to its available
resources without calling on depart
ment clerks, messengers or floor
scrubbers, but we don't expect they
will gather in this offering.
Mr.. Benjamin Nickerson, the orig
inal owner of the De Golyer pavement
patent, is out IN card in which he
agrees to pay 81 200 into the Garfield
corruption fund upon the presentation
of Il certified transcript of the board of
public works, District of Columbia, of
any opinion written, printed, or other
wise, filed or offered to be filed with
said board by General Garfield, or
that he at any time appeared before
said board and made any argument,
oral or otherwise, upon the pavement
question.
But this challenge will not be MOTTO
ed. The Republican managers have
known, from the first, that the $1,000
paid to General Garfield was bribe,
not fee and they know equally well
that, had it been Il fee, as Garfield al
lcges, the acceptance of it would have
rendered him liable to two years in the
and a fine of $4,000. -

The DeVil-S Pulpit.


Away up among the AndirOcks, on
high ledge of rocks OVerhanging one
of the prettiest lakes in the world, is Il
curious formation of stone, which goes
hy the name of the Devils pulpit. Its
popularity is that Il sound Uttered
from il awakCns seven distinct echoes,
apparently from as many different
directions. The name was given to it
in compliment 10 the intelligence and
industry of the prince of evil and in
recognition of the fact that whatever
he does is done 50 aS to produce the
most telling effect. There j. also in
this name a half covered allusion To
the fact that the proclamation of evil
in the world goes on with more force
than the circulation OF wholesome
truth, and that where the pulpit,
which lifts up one voice in behalf of
truth and righteousness, often has to
fight its battles single-handed, the
agencies for the dissemination of the
bad blow their blast as if with seven
trumpets, while the CchOinE chorus
seems To rc-infoIce their sounds and
give them the effect of Il mighty
volume. The good too often quietly
submits To the bad. Content with it,
one voice, il sadly sinks into obscurity,
while diabolical wickedne>s proudly
toots its seven horns and triumphantly
strides forth Ia victory. There Is little
question that the bad makes more
noise in the world than the good.
The traditional old lady WHO made it
her habit always to say good word
for anybody when it was at all posi-
BILE, was challenged by her children TO
say good word for Satan. "Well,
my dears," said she, 81 wish we all
had Satan's industry and persever-
ancc." Satan's worst enemies give
him credit for zeal in making himself
heard and for persistence in carrying
out his plans.
Concerning the personality of the
Devil we know exceedingly little,
either from Scripture or from any
others source. Whatever or whoever
he may bc, all nations have regarded
him A. the great power, for evil, aud
the sworn adversary Of that which is
good. He does his best tO overcome
the good. Ii j. the mission of the
good to try to overcome him and
to frustrate his eudeavOrs. IL he

in about five minutes rcappearcd, fol-

where lay the dead bodies of the Sol

Occasionally the two laden ants stop

of holes in the ground, into each of

The comet. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1877-1882, 1880-11-06

Prof. Swift, Astronomer of the War
ner Observatory, at Rochester, y. +,
discovered another large comet on the
evening of October 10th. The fact was
noted in the associated press dis
patches, but some important and inter
esting details which could not I've tel
cgraphed are herewith given. The
new celestial visitor is in the Constel-
lation of Pegasus, right ascension, 81
hours, 80 minutes, declination north Il
degrees, 80 minutes. Its rate of mo-
tion is quite slow, being in north
westerly direction so that it is ap-
preaching the sun. 1t has very
strong condensation on one side of the
centre i'm addition to a starlike neu-
cleus, which indicates that it is throw
ing off an extended tail. From the
fact of it, extraordinary size, We are
warrented i'm presuming that it will
bc very brilliant, and the additional
fact that il is coming almost directly
toward the earth. gives good promise
that it will he one of the most remark
able comets of the present century.
This is the fifth comet which Prof.
Swift has discovered, and the increas-
ed facilities which Mr.. II. III Warner,
the popular and wealthy medicine
man, has given him, 10y erecting a
magnificent Observatory for his bene-
tit. promise much more for the fu-
ture. There il a possibility that fur
ther developments may prove this to
be the great comet Of 1872, which j.
being constantly expected, i'm which
event astronomers will have an un-
usual opportunity 10 test the spectre
scope for the first time upon these &C.
centric bodies, and ascertain certainly
what they are.

SUPREME COURT.

we begin to-day to publish the de.
clSlohs Of the October Term of the
Supreme Court, and will conlinu. to
do 50 weekly, to keep the legal profes-
SION promptly advised of the result of
the action of the Court on all oues-
tons of any general Importance what

only ones, by any means, who will be
proiited by the publication of these
decisions, for in many instances the
merchants, farmers, and others, will

ing out and calculating the law on
many subjects affecting their business
affairs. AS an instance, we call atten-
ton to the case of Nicholson, ct al. Vs.
h"'2e, trustee, which we publish to-
day, showing what is, and what is not,
a sufficient description of personal
property in deed of trust in order to
make it valid. Doubtless there are
many trust deeds and mortgages, now
existing, under which the parties are
acting with the belief that they are
valid, but which, if tested by the de-
cision in the above case, would prove
worthless.
The case of Hunt, crecutrir, as. Pot
ter, administrator, is also of vast i'm
portance. In fact, it is Il "new de-
parture" in practice, in many instan-
ces, in this State. The construction
given by the court to Z 07G of the Code
of 1871, shows that person holding a
claim against an estate, whether it is
an open account, note, bill of exchange,
bond or other claim arising cG con-
trdct", and desiring to enforce it, is
not compelled to resort TO a court of
law and reduce it TO judgment, (al-
though he may do 50 if hc des ire, J but
may go into the Chancery Court in
which the estate is being administered
md there obtain Il decree for the
mount to which he is entitled and
or its payment. These decisions alone
will doubtless be worth to many per-
IONS several times the value OF years
to THE COMET, and as it |
$ our aim to make this feature of the |
PAPER both permanent and prominent,
We hope and believe it will be appre-
'iated and our efforts in this respect
ully rewarded by the public.
