HOMEOPATHIC CHARr.-We see by the
homographic chart of the tenth session
of the Nevada Legislature that it con-
tains a number of curious features. All
the officers and attaches Of the Senate
are Republican, whilst those of the As
sembly are all Democratic. One gent
obtains an appointment as engrossing
clerk of the Senate as hailing from Lin
coin county who has never been in Lin
coin county, and whose postoffice address
on the chart is Eureka. The sergeant
alarms of the Senate is the present es-
SCISSOR of Eureka county. with salary of
only $1,000, which is SO small that he has
to 60 to Carson begging an appointment,
to enable him to exc out miserable ex-
istence on the combined salaries.
A MARROW EscAPE.-While our car
rier was delivering the last issue of the
RECORD, and psnsively meditating over
the probability Of his ever becoming a
bonanza king, noise like unto the dis
cord of seventeen charivaris smote upon
the drum of his let ear. As he is young
in age and iniquity, and small in size and
courage, he at once made tracks for home
not through fear for his own safety,
but rather through a realization of the
great danger in which the RECORDS were
placed It subsequently TRANSFERRED that
the cause of his fright was dispute be-
tween two members of the feline tribe.
RAILROAD SUBsIDY.-A bill has been
introduced in the Nevada Legislature to
procure railroad subsidies from Eureka,
White Pine and Lincoln counties, and
run road through the three counties,
connecting with the Utah Southern. II
the bill should pass, our taxpayers will at
some time have to put up 5000, 900 as the
proportion of this county. Those who
are not in favor of its passage had better
now express their sentiments to our Leg
islators before it is too late.

*tm /. LYMAN.
If you wish to gain the enmity of
small boy, insinuate in his presence tina
he cannot steer sled. 1t is amusing t.
see ono of these little fellows ON sic,
come down well-beaten track at hig
rate of speed, strike hidden rock
, bound about twenty feet into the air
. | land in someone's cellar, and then get u
and inform the assembled crowd of grin
ming urchins that he "steered out o
4 purpose. -.,
TERM LApsINa. Some of our attol
neys are under the impression that th
present term of the District Court h'
J. lapsed, on account of the order given fc
e the adjournment of the court until Sa
t urday, January Goth. If this is the cas-
f there will be no term Of court until Al
!. gust. They say it is a similar case
Q that Of Eureka county last year, whe
Q the term lapsed. We will know bett
n about it when the Judge arrives here.
. RUNAWAY. Monday last Chi
4 Dicks team, which had been left u
r hitched in front Of the Peoples marke
D on Meadow Valley street, became frigh
le ened and ran away down Main stree
4, They were overhauled and brought bat
As without any damage being done. Di
gel had been frequently warned to tie the

o. He will after this probably tie them.
