THE ART OF MAKING POETRY.

| we nave lnteTVlcWcu MI. GILL SUI
by cable. We said Mr. Tennyson our
little inadvertencies through life have
been in a great measure poetical. We
love art. Art is comprehensive lit
tie word which we desire to contradis-
tinguish from genius. We are aware
that everybody is an artist who IS not
genius, that every stick that walks
the stage of life is, in fact, an artist.
There are no more "supeS' on llte'S
stage-all dead. We trust we are war
ranted in suggesting to you that the
first verse of your patriotic ballad will
not do, Mr.. Tennyson-not do. Will
you accept the delicate structures of an
artist who makes poetry as other lovers
of art do mud pies. Hear Hear !!
We regret that you sent these lines to
your American publisher instead of to
us by private dispatch.
"Frst pledge our Queen, this solemn night,
Then drink to England, every guest,
That mans the best cosmopolite
Who loves his native country best
May Freedoms oak forever live
With larger life from day to day.
That mans the truest conservative
Who lops the mouldered branch away"
You will agree with us that "solemn
night will not do. 1t is bacchanal-
a vine song, Mr.. Tennyson. We must
not lose trace of the llnities. 1t was
not solemn" ceremony for the COM
pany to rise and join hands for the
chant. 1t was festive, not a solemn
night.
GLANDS all round. God the traitors hope
confound."
We have turned this material into
our mill, Mr.. Tennyson, and anxiousIy
submit the grist we get from it, Here
it is.
We pledge our Queen and Empress first,
Then drink to Engla every guest;
lie holds not human rights the worst
Who loves his native country best:
May Freedoms oak forever thrive
With larger life from day to day;
That man will keep it best alive
Who lops the mouldered branch away.
We confess, Mr.. Laureate, we are
not wholly satisfied with this, and if it
does not stand the test of your crucible
we prefer to grind again, rather than
fail in the patriotic ballad. 1t is not
any companion piece. 1t is not a
charge of any Heavy Brigade. 1t is
new, square, original, dramatic, pa
triotic, bacchanalan ballad, which must
not be wanting in any one of the great
requisites of lyric poetry-if We grind
all the week through. Mr.. Tennyson,
excuse us, the mill has turned again.
This we think will do better.
First pledge our Queen, my friends, and then
A health TO Eng land, every guest,
He best will serve the race of men
Who loves his native country best;
May Freedoms oak forever last
With Larger life from day to day;
He loves the present and the past
Who lops the mouldered branch away.
Hands all round. God the traitor hope con-
found.
We may be excused little pardon
able pride in submitting this version.
We trust now this patriotic ballad will

The Old Colonel.

NJ. +. Glover yesterday received a
letter from Colonel Z. E. Allen, who is
now residing in Waterbury, Conn. The
Colonel will be remembered as Speaker
pro tenn. of the Assembly in the session
before the last. He represented Lincoln
county, and is IS we'll known in other
portions of the State as in Lincoln. He
writes that he is perfectly contented ip
his Eastern home, and has no desire to
return to the sagebrush of Nevada. He
is at present employed in the Office of a
water company, and states that not
withstanding his salary is only forty
dollars month, he has more money at
the end of the month than he had here
when receiving hundred and over. If
we are not mistaken there are some
laws of prohibitary character in Con-
necticut, which probably accounts for
the Colonel's seeming prosperity. He
concludes his letter by wishing all of his
friends happy new year, not desiring
to omit a single one.

pink-Eye Travelling West.

H. l.. Perkins, an old-timer here
abouts, is now in Cassia Greek, Idaho,
about fifty miles from Kelton. He
writes to Doc. Benton that there is
scarcely horse in his section but what
is troubled with pink-eye. He also
says that the people there are more or
less afflicted with the complaint. The
disease seems to be tending westward,
but as it proceeds in this direction its
severity lessons. 1t was the same with
the epizootic when that complaint was
raging some years ago. In the Eastern
States it was very bad, but as it came
west it moderated, and although ami
mails were laid up from work the di-
sease did not prove very fatal.

An Enauiry.

The following, bearing date of the
9Th instant, and written on a postal
card, was received at this office yester-
day. The writer's photography is good,
but his photography and grammar are
shaky, as the following will show:

We have several reasons for thinking
that the writer is a fraud, few of
which we will give briefly. The bad
spelling of the note is bungling piece
of afTectation, as in one place the writer
spells "know" thus - .'no," - and
when he uses the word 4 second time
he spells it correctly. \ reference to
the books of the defnnct Reform Club
fails to show the name Of Jim Arm old
either as Il member Or Il contributor
Again, the writer is not from Bodie,
but lives in Carson. If he had sense or
dscency enough to have been men,
Der of the Reform Club, or even con-
tributor to that institution, he would
have known that the Club never had a
library and never received any dona-
tons Of books. The Ladies' Union had
a library, however, which is now the
Ladies' Circulating Library, and if the |
writer of the above note ever contrib !
uted any money to that institution he !
doubtless was credited with it and the !
books will show the fact.

Tomorrow Night.

Tomorrow evening the Alice Oates
Opera Troupe will open at the Opera
House, in the interesting and celebrated
opera OF ala Mascotte." The company
is represented by an unusual number Of
performers, and wherever they have
appeared have been greeted with large
audiences. The people of Carson have
now an opportunity to witness genu-
inc Opera Bouffe performance. The
excellence of Miss Oates in her line is
too we'll known throughout the country
to need of praise, Her presence at the
head of troupe is sufficient guaran tee
that the support Is a good one. The
company will appeal two nights in Car
son, the second performance being
"Girohe-Girofa." Both Of these operas
are exceedingly interesting, and when
the leading parts are taken by such an
artistic as Miss Oates, supported by the
company travelling with her, treat is
offered we'll worth taking advantage of.
The expense attendant upon the man
agement in bringing this troupe to Car
son is great, and our people should
show their appreciation by full atten-
dance. Reserved seats can be secured
