house and lineage of Fisk In addition to the

Pliny Barnard Fisk, Perrin B. Fisk and Joel Whit
ney, whose mother was Fisk Rev. Pliny Bar
nard Fisk preached an excellent sermon from the
text, "God is love" In the Sabbath-school the
opening prayer was made by Deacon Z. A. Fisk of
this place Your correspondent is not able to
trace back the genealogy Of the Fisks, but cir
cumstances indicate that they are OF the tribe of
Levi. J.. Rev p. b. Fisk, who has been spending
few weeks with friends in this place, returned to
his home in Lake City, Minnesota, last Monday.
49,. Rev Joel Whitney, who has been mission
airy at the Micronesian Islands for the past ten
years, gave very interesting account Of his ex-
perience among that people, last Sabbath evening.

CALIFORNIA; NOTED TROT
TIERS.

The New York Turf, Field and 'Farm
of the 10Th gives an interview with
Charles Fl. Raymond, owner OF Phil.
Thompson. He declares that the record
shows Phil. to be a faster and quicker
trotter than Mackay's Sweetheart. "ln
April or May I will accommodate Mac
kay with a match, provided my colt is
in good health. Had nothing been said
about matching this Winter. I should
have challenged. in April or May, the
four-year.o lds of California, and of the
world, to a battle, provided Phil. Thomp-
son kept right. Stokes simply antici-
pated me by waiting until Spring to put
up thssforfeit. 1t makes it more of a
certainty that the colts will come to-
gether." Raymond weighs his words
well. He believes that he has the best
three-year-old of 1881, and that he will
show the best four-year-old of 1882.
Fred. Croker, it is asserted, will be
all right next year. If he should come
out in good form we can see no reason
why Governor Stanford should decline to
put him in the race with Phil. Thompson
and Sweetheart. A trotting contest be-
tween these three-year-olds for a stake Of
$50, 900 and the gate money will attract
the attention of the country, and the
winner will reward his owner with a
small fortune. The great question to be
decided is whether the palm shall be
awarded to California or Kentucky as a
breeding Stase.

THANKSGIVING.

The American people rest from their
labors to-day to give thanks. The
methods of expression will be as varied
as the multiform character of the nation.
The atheist will indulge in simple self
congratulation. R~eligionists will bow
down in grateful recognition of the
source of all blessings. Could the
worshipers at their devotions, athousand
times different in the United States, to-
day be seen in panoramic view, it would
present the most suggestive spectacle
that ever entered a poets mind. We
live in a land of unfettered liberty. We
have been prosperous. The growth OF
our riches has boon so rapid, our reve-
nues increased so prodigiously, we can
afford to sport with the query whether
we shall pay our national debt at once,
or divide the honor with posterlty. Hard
times belong to the past. We have
suffered a calamity in the foul TAX
ing off of our Chief Executive,
a peculiarly great and self-made
American. But over his untimeiy
grave the whole people, oblivious OF
political or sectional feeling, have min
gled their tears in the one common sor-
row. This scourge developed a perfect
Union. Out of grief arose a wholesome
sense of national duty.
Nevada has not kept the place that
her friends think belongs to her in the
general progress of material improve
ment. For a time our people have been
under the influence of a panic, and,
overlooking fair prospects at home, have
plunged into mining speculations abroad
with q less reasonable expectation OF
profit. They are returning home, how
ever, and are coming to a realizing sense
of the vastness and multiplicity OF the
sourc of the Silver State. Eureka
evinces, in the case of the Eureka
Tunnel. what may yet be uncovered by
conscientious and unremitting diligence
with the pick and blast. Let us be
glad, at any rate, for to-day.

roo SUSPICIOUS.

There are too classes of people who
take with equal readiness the bait
thrown out for gudgeons, those who are
unsuspecting and those who see a swim
die in every bush. The peculiar differ
ence between these two sorts of simple
tons is that the latter are always caught
by others, while the former often them
selves set the trap in which they are
caught. A case in point is that of jesse
Baldwin, an eccentric person, who a few
weeks ago presented a parcel of United
States bonds at the Treasury for redemp-
tion, and refused to receive anything but
twenty-dollar gold pieces in payment.
Though the cash weighed about 70
pounds, he wanted to carry the coin
away with him in his ~valise, but was
finally persuaded to send it home by ex-
press. The circumstance that he has
since been robbed of his golden treasure,
which had been deposited in his dwelling
house for safe keeping, may serve to i'm
press upon any like-minded person a re-
alization of the truth that banks have
their uses, and that evidences of debt
are in some respects preferable to bullion.

PEASANT REPRESENTATION.

Important constitutional changes are
intimated by the appointment of a Rus
sian special commission to consider the
local administration of the country not
the least radical change being a scheme
of peasant representation. 1t is to be
hoped that this project is not a mere tub
thrown to the Nihilist whale, for it is
quite evident that some such progressive
stride in the direction Of human liberty
is an essential for that giant Empire.
Sad as have been the scenes consequent
upon the ripple of revolt upon the up
per strata of Russian society, they would
be mere child's play to the horrors which
must ensue in the event of a widespread
servile revolution. Such an outbreak is,
however, by no means an improbability,
unless some reasonable concessions are
promptly made.

PACIFIC COAST ADvICES.
A Strange Letter to the Coroner
Suicide of Charles Moore Sus.
pension of Mining Brokers = A
Citizens Meeting.

SAN Francisco, Nov. 23.-The Coroner
this morning received by mail the follow
ing letter: Mr.. Coroner, tonight I drown
myself. If I Am found you will find out
my name and $40 in my pants pocket, all
in ten cent pieces, to defray my funeral ex-
penses. The most miserable, selfish, nasty
lot Of people are here in this humbug State.
The California Department in He'll is over
crowded and wants an extra fireman, and
l am going there to make it red hot for
them. The letter was unsigned, and the
body has not yet turned up.
Charles Moore, a native OF Sweden, aged
46, a saloon keeper at No. Al East street,
committed suicide some time during the
night, by shooting himself. Recently he
had q fit OF delirium tremens, and fire.
quently threatened self-destruction.
Nixon d Haines,' mining brokers, sus-
pended to-day. 1t IL expected that they
will be able to resume in a few days.
A meeting Of citizens was held at Union
Hall last night to protest against the evil
dent intention Of a majority Of the Board
OF Super visors to pass the order granting
an exclusive franchise to the Bay Shore
Railroad Company to ~encircle the city with
its tracks. Strong speeches were made
and resolutions adopted, which will be pre-
sented to the Board. The sentiment of
the meeting, which largely consisted of the
mercantile element, was in favor of close
connection between ship and car, but no
exclusive privileges to any one corporation.
AUBURN, Nov. 23.-In the train wreck
ers' case, the defendant Stenegal con-
cluded his testimony in q short time, after
which George H. Shinn, another OF the
defendants, was placed upon the stand.
Shinn escaped at the time the others were
arrested, n after considerable search and
expense was arrested at Maxwell, CAL, by
Officer Burke. Like all the rest, he claimed
to know nothing regarding the ditching OF
the train, until informed regarding 1t by
others. He told of his travels and occu-
pations from the time he left Iowa Hill
until his arrest. He did not stand his
cross-examination as well as Mason, or as
well as did S~tenegal. To an unpreiudiced
observer the case Of the defense, as con-
trasted with hat of the prosecution, ap-
pears very weak. But this completion OF
things may be changed when all the EVIL
dence on the part OF the defense has been
presented. 1t is not likely that the case
will reach the jury before the first Of next
week, as the defense have q large number |
of witnesses. The interest of the public |
in the trial does not decrease, and some 16 |
ladies attended the trial to-day in addition
to the usual number Of men.

the lady and gentleman whom we were

claim to represent the historic family
whose name they bore, has just been
given currency. 1t is not a very likely
tale upon the face Of it, and its credibility
is not increased by the source frsm which
it emanates. The Paris Figaro is q paper
