Increasing Licenses.

We are in receipt OF a copy of Brad
shaw's bill entitled AN At to provide
revenue for the State of Nevada" Its
more appropriate title should be IAN
Act to decrease the revenue of the
State of Nevada" 1t provides ''that
any person who may dispose of any
spirituoas or malt liquors, in less
quantities than ono gallon, shall take
out license from the Sheriff of the
county in which he or she proposes
to do business, and pay therefor tie
sum Of $3.50 per quarter in advance. !"
The large saloon-keepers are said TO

great extent bar out the small dealers.
The bill was read twice under sus-
pension of the rules in the Assembly,
and referred to the Committee on
Ways and Means.

According to the astronomers, jan
uary was stormy month on the sun
as well as on the earth. One of them
tells the New York Sun that tempests
powerful enough to sweep every liv-
ing thing from the face of the earth,
have spent their force upon the great
glowing orb, and their effects have
been visible at the distance of ninety
odd million miles. Those who have
not looked at the sun through a tel
escope since 1878, when its broad
disc was rs free from spots as the pol
ished gold case of a watch, would be
astonished at the change i'm its teles-
copic appearance. 1t is now like the
shield OF a warrior, dented and
pierced by many heavy strokes. On
some days an opera glass powerful
enough to define the curve of an act
ress' eyebrow, has sufficed to show the
dark nucleus of a solar cyclone.
Spots larger than this earth have ap-
peared ana vanished. Day afte- day
the whole surface of the sun has been
mottled and wrinkled under the strain
OF forces so trenndeous that in COM
l~'' WV" ehOhi bio SlIcuBtu vi
volcano seems puny. The spots have
gone trooping acress the disc, with
the revolution OF the mighty globe, in
groups and rows, singly and in pairs.
Huge groups have been seen to split
up, and smaller spots have been
formed and destroyed in few hours.
whether, as some have supposed,
these spots are caused by the fall OF
enormous meteoric masses upon the
sun, or are produced by an up-rush
or down-rush of gaseous matter, or
are the result of both these causes, the
effect upon the observer are the same.
lie cannot escape the impression that
tho great fire-ball is looking at the
sport of the elemental forces of the
most gigantic power and activity.

A New Form OF Insurance.

A very ingenious departure i'm the
Insurance line has been started I'm Gin
cinnati, where "Matrimonial Bene-
fit Company" has been incorporated.
Throwing aside all the traditionary
schemes ofthe life insurance business,
this company proposes to benefit its
members ut their marriage instead of
death, considering, no doubt, that,
whereas upon entering the marriage
state the exchequer must oftentimes
need replenishing, after death money
would prove of very little practical
use, at least so far as the deceased Is
concerned, other than to pay the ex-
penses of his obsequies. The laws of
the association call for an initiation
fee OF S., and general assessment of
VI upon the marriage of u member.

BEEcHER, the clerical baffoon, has
struck new streak in the nonsens-
ical in masquerading as the Chaplain
OF the Thirteenth (Brooklyn) Regi-
ment of kid-glove soldiers. The
spectacle of big, greasy, overfed
preacher rugged up in regimentals,
with sword clanking at his heels,
must be very edifying and very con-
ducive of religion. The fact Is that
beecher and his class of preachers are
not ministers of the Gospel, but only
hypocritical sensationalists, whom
Nature intended for circus clowns or
end men in a niggar minstrel show.

The Election Bills.

| From the New Castle Star, (lnd.)
What is this new bill concocted in the
Senate to require the State Treasurer tt
furnish paper to print tickets at elec.
tions? Where are we drifting to? What
is the matter with the Delaware democ,
racy? Do they rush upon their certain
death? Where is the loop-hole tO
furnish tissue ballots? When that is
done then the election machinery will
hc perfected after the modern system.
How long will the people submit tc
such outrages? Suppose man wants tc
writc ticket and vote differently from
ofany the legally (?) printed ones. What
is he going to do about it?
Put this bill against the other known
as the "l'ree Election Bill" and how
inconsistent! Perhaps our politicians
want to initiate the outrage perpetrated
in A ALBANIA against Lowe, contestant
for Con sress against Wheeler, because
the ballots had or had not certain tech
ilical marks.
Well Bourbonism won't Learn, no mat
ter what party.
