L.ongfelIow's Picture I'm His Ow
WorL - The Day f. DOne.,s

L.oDgfelIow's Picture In His Own
work; THE Day is Done"
A great deal has been written about
Longfellow since his death q few days ago.
All essays on the subject have proved I'M
satisfactory. None other than the poet
can faithfully sketch the character Of the
poet, and the poet can draw the best pic
turo of himself. The sweetness and sim
plicity Of Longfellow's verse is its chief
feature. How eptly this is expressed in
the last five verses OF the following IA
miliar poem by the bard himself:
The day is done, and the darkness
Falls from the wings of Night,
As a feather is waited downwar
From an eagle in its flight.
Isee the lights of the village
Clean through the rain and the mist,
And q feeling Of sadness comes Ger me
That my soul cannot resist.
A feeling OF sadness and longing,
That is not akin to pam,
And resembles the sorrow only
As the mist resembles the rain.
Come, read to me some poem.
Some simple and heartfelt lay,
That shall soothe this restless feeling
And Danish the thoughts of day.
Not from the grand old masters,
Not from the bards sublime,
Whose distant footsteps echo
Through the corridors OF Time.
For. like the strains of martial music,
Their mighty thoughts suggest
Lifc's endless toll and endeavor;
And tonight 1 long for rest.
Read from some humber poet,
Whose songs gushed from his heart,
As showers from the clouds OF Summer,
Or tears from the eyelids start.
Who. through the long days of labor,
And nights devoid of ease,
Still heard in his soul the music
OF wonderful melodies.
Such songs have power to quiet
The restless pulse Of care,
And come like the benediction
That follows after prayer.
Then read from the treasured volume
The poem of thy choice,
And lend to the rhyme Of the poet
The beauty of thy voice.
And the night shall be filled with music,
And the cares that infest the day
Shall fold their tents like Arabs,
And silently steal away.

A PUFF.
The Mines and r Of
Appreciated.

New York Stock Report.
Eureka is a fortunate mining camp. Its
mines make an output which is equal to
any in the country. 1t has many pros
poets and claims in course Of development,
which give, and hold out promise OF be-
coming in time great bonanzas. Eureka
Is not only fortunate in being a rich min
eral country, but in possessing a reliable
press. Its newspapers take the greatest
interest in working for the benefit OF their
district. AfCee, outspoken press is a great
advantage for a mining community, one
that tells things as they are, criticises
things that should not be one that pro-
tects investors and shows up rogues.
We take pleasure in saying that as far as
our knowledge goes Eastern investment
In Eureka mines has been more fortunate
than in any other mining district.
We do not remember OF there ever hav-
Ing been a single ~swindling mining COM
pany hailing from Eureka District. This,
we believe, can be placed to the credit OF
the Eureka press. We trust 1t will con-
hnue in Its good work, which might profit
ably be copied by papers Of other dis
iriets. Furnish news, reliable news, show
up any. frauds, protect the public and
guard them from loss and to profitable
neids. A newspaper at the mines has great
power. II can do q great deal towards
regulating the actions OF mining COM
panies, publishing accounts of manage
ment Of properties, criticising bad or ex-
trayagant management, and informing the
public what ought to be.

ANNIS. ALIAS ALLISON.


This Notorious Criminal to Wear
Stripes In Nevada After All.
1t will be remembered that about three
years ago Sheriff Kyle was taking Annis
to the State Prison, and that the prisoner,
convicted Of horse stealing, jumped off the
train and made his escape. The Sheriff
spared no expense or pains to recover him,
but all trace Of the fugitive was lost un-
til he turned up in Colorado, where he
was tried for stage robbery and sentenced
to 81 years in the penitentiary. Mr.. Kyle
made a trip to Colorado to get his man,
to whom he thought he had a prior claim,
but the authorities refused to give him up.
A singular condition OF things has been
developed lately in the Annis affair which
the following letter explains. Sheriff
Kyle is determined to bring the prisoner
back and he telegraphed to Colorado yes
terday to find out whether he will be de-
livered up to him. If he gets an afirma-
tive answer he will go for Mr.. Annis and
escort him to Carson this time without
chance of repeating his former leap for
liberty:
DENVER (Col.), April /, 1882.
DEAR MATT: After the large amount
Of money, time and labor you have ex-
pended in your endeavors to get Annis,
alias "Allison," back to the springs at
Carson, it may cheer your dependent
soul to know that, if you are still will
ing to expend your coin in the cause Of
outraged justice, you could, / think, if
you so desire, have your efforts crowned
with complete success.
The facts are as follows: By an Act Of
the Legislature of this State, approved
March l, 1881, section SO Of chapter "a,
General Laws, which defined the crime
under which Annis. or Allison, and many
others, were convicted, was repealed, In
express terms, without any saving clause,
and another section in lieu thereof was
enacted. This last Act took effect on June
l, 1881, after the crimes which Allison is
charged to have committed. In other
words, at the time Allison is charged to
have committed certain acts there was no
law in this State defining them as crimes,
or providing any punishment therefor.
Under q decision rendered yesterday by
the Supreme Court of this State, every
person indicted or convicted Of crime,
under the section repealed, or the new one
enacted, after March 1, 1881, and before
June /, 1881, is entitled to immediate
discharge. Annis. or Allison, is one OF
the lot, and will, no doubt, be set loose as
soon as his counsel will make the proper
application for that purpose, and then the
great State Of Nevada may. II she desires.
have the honor Of entertaining that
tin) famous gentleman for several years to
come.
OF course you are welcome to any
service I may be able to render you In
the matter, should you conclude to take
any measures to secure him.

THE TRIBUNE PROPHECY.
TayIor's Wives Unable to Stay I'm
the Haunted Palace.


Salt Lake Tribune: Some time ago ii
was announced that John Taylor was talk
ing OF moving into the Amelia Palace. The
Tribune, filled with the true spirit Of reve-
lation, tore aside the veil which hides
futurity from the gaze Of common mortals
and prophesied that the ghosts Of the muir
dered emigrants who went down in the
Mountain Meadows Massacre, would haunt
the palace 30 long as any one connected
with the Mormon Church attempted to
live in it. For q while Taylor, realizing
that the true gift Of revelation was enjoyed
by the Tribune staff, held back, but the
leaders in the Church who wanted to see
the peoples money squandered wanted
John Taylor to set the example and forced
him into the accursed house. From time
to time the Tribune gave the accounts OF
the terrible manifestations which took
place there, and these faithful chronicles
OF events were sneered at as idle tales.
Now comes the proof, which stamps the
Tribune as q true prophet. During the
past week the wives OF John Taylor have
left the palace. They solemnly declare
that IN the midst Of all the luxurious sur
%roundings OF the place they have not been
happy, In the deep watches of the night
are heard the death means OF the slain;
the frenzied shrieks Of women resound
through the corridors; voices of supplica-
ton 60 up, Of mothers begging the Nor
mon butchers to spare their nursing babes,
mingled with the low walls Of dying chill
dren. This Is what has driven the women
OF John Taylor's household from the Anne
liza Palace. Since his residence there Tay-
lor has grown ten years older. His sun
ken, bloodshot eyes, his hollow cheeks and
increasing feebleness tell Of agonized nights
and interrupted sleep. During the past
few months he has seen manifestations
which were sufficient to convince him OF
the dreadful mockery Of the religion OF
which he is the head, and were it not for
the pressure from behind he would to-day
quiet his accusing conscience by an open
remuneration OF 1t in the Tabernacle.

STILL ARGUING.
The Richmond Albion Suit Being
Tried Again.


The San Francisco Stock Report Of
March 81 reopens the Richmond-Albion
case, and upsets the unanimous decision
Of the Supreme Court OF Nevada. The
Exchange thinks that the legal editor of
its contemporary is in the wrong place,
and that the people Of California will
force him to occupy the first Judgeship
that is vacant on the Supreme Bench, and
il adds: The persistent, false and partial
statements Of the Richmond people can
have but one object here, which is to de-
press in the market the value Of the AL
bion shares, in the expectation that they
can by 80 doing cripple that company, as
there are no shares Of the Richmond Com
pany owned in the United States to be
benefited by such garbled statements. So
far the Albion managers have succeeded in
substantiating their claims and views, and
if the Richmond agents, managers and
lawyers in this country wait until the Su-
preme Court OF the United States reverses
the unanimous decision Of the Supreme
Court Of the State OF Nevada, we much
fear that they will wait in vain, for we do
not know Of anything so utterly improba-
BILE. 1t 10 quite time that their counsel or
attorney in this city should cease fighting
his case over again in the newspapers. 1t
can do him no good, and will only tend to
prove to the community that he is not
such q legal sage as he would have US be-
lieve. And we advise him to accept his
Waterloo graciously and quietly, for the
more he stirs it the worse it gets for him
and his pretensions. The Albion people
are not troubled in any way whatever by
these newspaper threats Of what the Rich
mond Company proposes to do. They are
quietly preparing to extract ore from the
disputed ground, and developing their
mine in such a way as to prevent in the
future any more ore stealing from their
ground.

A Good Region for Prospecsors.

quite a 4 number Of prospectors, says the
Enterprise, will this Spring leave TO pros
pect in the region Of country into which
the Carson & Colorado Railroad ia being
advanced. There are vast areas that have
never been explored since the early DAYS,
and then most OF the prospecting was done
by men who rode through the country on
horseback, breaking off a piece OF rock
here and there. and picking up q bit Of
aoat occasionally in a fat. canyon. or
9sher place where 1t was good travelling.
and cheap appearance that the prospectors
OF 10 or 20 years ago would not look at
them. In those days all we're looking for
black sulphuret ore. such as was being
taken out at the Ophir. Whatever looked
yellow, or brown and rusty, was set down
~ iron, and the prospector would not dis
mount to make even the most superficial
examination.

A Return visit.

The business manager OF the Austin
Brass Band. Sam. King, has concluded to
bring his band to Eureka shortly for the
purpose OF giving some vocal and instru.
mental concerts. The Union Guard Band
Of this place visited Austin some three
months ago. and were very courteously
received BY the Austin people; in fact there
was a rivalry between them as to who
should do the most for our boys, and it is
TO be hoped, and we confidently expect,
that they will receive similar treatment at
the hands OF our people. Mr.. and Mrs.
Prisk Of Virginia City will accompany
the party. They are pleasing and well
known vocalists. and viii materially add
to any entertainment the band may favor
IA With.

Money Withdrawn.

1t is estimated, says the Virginia Chron-
icle. that 5000, 900 have been withdrawn
from the banks and brokers' Offices in this
county during the past month or two.
This has been done to avoid the payment
of the personal property tax, which is to
be levied between the first Monday Of April
and the first Monday Of. September. AS
SCISSOR Dunno says he will not call for the
list Of deposits until after the County
Commissioners make the tax levy for the
year. 1t is expected the levy will be made
next Monday.
