THE CATHOLIC ORPHANS HOME.

The Gold Hill News objects to an appropri-
alton for the Orphans Home in Virginia City
on the ground that il is Roman Catholic in
stitution. While there is considerable con-
sistency in this objection, there is no reason
why so deserving an institution should not
be aided. The Home is under the direct
supervision of the Catholic Church. and man
aged by Sisters of Charity, who devote their
lives to the orphans under thar charge for
simply their food and clothes. When an or

GEORGE ELIoT.--The last number of the

George Eliot. It would be hard TO imagine
more forbiddiug countenance. A protruding

like an eagles beak, a forehead anything bat

into consideration that the original of this
picture gave to English literature some OF its

SELL THE STREET DIRT.--The scan
dal that the quarrel between Street
Commissioner Lynch and Pat Gardner,
and on the charges growing out of which
the City Council has appointed q COM
mittee of investigation, may be made to
serve good purpose. II is clearly evil
dent from what has been said on both
sides, that somebody has been selling
street dirt, AID hence the fact is proven
that there is often demand for 1t and
that II may be sold. Hence II must be
inferred that the city could dispose Of Its
street dirt, and thus perhaps secure
enough to pay for much Of the hauling
that now is drain upon the treasury.
The interest Of the city demands that q
thorough examination should be made
by the committee and the facts brought
out. Mr.. Lynch knows what he owes
to his employers. BE held a good situa-
ton at the Harlan L. HollIngsworih
works for many years, and was never
KNOWN to pass working hours In saloons.
mere is no need OF Mr.. Lynch meeting
CoHncilmen or his work men in saloons,
as ne has snugly fitted up office to
which he is expected to invite them.
The Office he holds is an important one,
and 1t should be filled with ability and
sumcient character to render the ap-
polntment OF committee unnecessary
under such circumstances.

OYSTER EATERS will rejoice to hear
that . naturel oyster bed, believed by
the prospectors to extend over an area
of an hundred acres, has just been dis.
covered in LII. Sound off Stony Brook,
but a short distance to the southwark
OF Port Jefferson. There have been an
hundred dredgers already at work
there, and while they find the oysters
not unlike Saddle Rocks and of fine
hivor, they find great difficulty in
graphing them because of the very
rocky bottom. Very soon diver is
to descend and inspect more closely

The DROUGHT has come to an end.
The fine rain of Saturday week in this
vicinity started the grass and had
made it look fresh and lively by yes

visited US last night and this morn

Should we have two weeks of warm
weather without frost and two or
three more rains in the next thirty
days, We may enjoy the pleasure of
plenty of good fresh milk and butter
at moderate prices during the winter.
But we fear that the late potatoes and
vegetables have been ruined by the
drought 80 far as to prevent much

MONDAY, SEPT. Ie, 1851.
ELECTRICITY AS A MOTOR For

STREET CARS President White OF
Cornell College, ex-Minister to Ger
many, arrived in New York on Satur-
day. He informed a World reporter
that he had visited the Paris Ex-
position, and that Mr.. Edison had one
of the finest exhibits in the building.
He said further, "The Siemens Bro
theirs, Of Berlin, who are laying the
new Atlantic cable, have also fine
exhibit. Their electric railway, as
slaid in Berlin and Paris, is a perfect
success. think it will create revo-
luton before long. The elevated
roads must soon adopt that system, for
it does away with the wear and tear of
heavy engines. The Siemens Bro
theirs are preparing to establish new
road in Berlin about four miles long.
The only apparatus the car carries is
contained in box underneath the
floor, about feet long, 2 feet broad
and is inches high. The car stops
and starts as easily as horse car, and
runs at the rate of about fifteen OF
twenty miles an hour"
Had President White given the pub
lie an accurate statement of the cost
OF running the electric street railway
his information would have been of
more value. 1t is presumed that
thousands of travellers who visited
Paris and Berlin could have made a
statement similar to his. That mo-
tor for street railways as substitute
for horse power, is one of the greatest
desires of the day there can be no
doubt. Electricity has heretofore
been held to be too expensive. The
wire rope system, which we referred
to some months ago, and which Mr..
Kimble has promised Philadelphia,
should it prove successful in Chicago
next winter, seems to be the best sys-
TEN that has been introduced. In
San Francisco it is in full operation,
and gives great satisfaction and costs
one-third less than horse power, ard
saves much cleaning and repairs of
streets. But the greatest advantage
which the wire rope system offers is
the greater number of cars that may
be run and the curtailment of the
time between the cars, enabling the
roads to accommodate a much greater
number of people when needed. Two
or three cars may be run together
with one conductor, and enough cars
put on to accommodate every one with
a seat. 1t is impossible to do this
With horses. Mr.. James Bradford
proposes 10 make a visit to California
this fall, and says if the wife rope
system can be safely worked in the
winter an effort will be made to intro.
duce it in Wilmington. This ques-
ton will be solved in Chicago this
winter we presume, as there is usually
far greater amount of ice and snow
in that climate than in this. Cheap
street railway carriage is one of the
greatest advantages to local labor, and
enables operatives to perform a far
greater amount of work In a year
than could be done without its aid,
while it serves to bring houses on the
suburbs within the reach of city work
men, and thus cheaper rents while it
furnishes more healthful residences.
