1t appears to us that as far as Senator
Fair is concerned Nevada was about as
we'll represented in the Senate Of the
United States by his predecessor, Hon.
William Sharon, as it is by the Hon. j
G. Fair. When Sharon was member
of the u. S. Senate form this State, he
was very conspicuous" in that body by
his absence, and Senator Fair will be
about the same. But as Senator Fair,
like Mr.. Sharon, is resident of Califor-
mia, and secured the position by the lib
eral scattering of coin, he has the right
to do as he please, and Nevadians have
no right to growl. But why does Mr..
Fair linger on the Pacific Coast, when
there is little or no work being done on
the Comstock! Why have the lobbyists
been gathering at Carson? All this gives
coloring to the report that has gone
abroad that an attempt was to be made
to repeal the tax upon bullion during the
present session of the Legislature.

EDMuNps AND WILSON.


IL is stated that few evenings since /,
conference was held in Chicago, attended
by number Of leading Republican poll
ticians, to discuss the coming Presiden-
tial campaign II was believed that
Mcdonald, Of Indiana, would be nomi-
mated by the Democrats. 1t was also
believed that neither Conkling, Blain,
Arthur, Window, Grant nor Logan
would fill the Republican bill and heal
the party differences. Colonel Robert
Lincoln has many warm supporters, but
it was said that he is too young yet. Ben
Harrison was favored by Others, but
after careful analysis OF the strong aud
weak points Of each man it was finally
decided that Senator Edmunds, of Yer
mont, and Senator James Wilson, OF
Iowa, would be the best choice for
the Presidential ticket that the Republi-
cans could nominate. The more the
ticket of Edmunds and Wilson was dis
cussed the more it grew in favor, and the
gentlemen in the party did so with the
understanding that an organized effort to
secure nomination OF this character
would be made.
Prominent Republicans expressed the
opinion, judging from the present out
look, that the nomination Of General
Sherman might be a strong one. They
argue that the people would have thor
ough confidence in his Independence and
honesty, and his brilliant war record
might give chance for another Harrison
Hurra " campaign; while the fact that
he had never taken any part in politics
would bar any objection on fractional
ground. When the convention assemblies
he will have settled down into citizen
of ST. Louis. He will not be "a years
old-at which he would be retired under
the new law--until February s, 1884;
and so, if he should possibly be the next
President, he would enter on his new
duties few weeks after he had reached
the age Of IS. stal a1lsla4

FORMATION OF 0RE VEINS. 1t appears
from recent observation by DR.. Fleit-
mann, of Iserlohn, Germany, known as
the inventor Of process for welding
nickle, that the formation Of ore veins
need not necessarily occupy such long
periods Of time as we are generally in.
clined to accord it, DIR. Fleitmann gave
his experience as follows: Some two
years ago he had the lotion of stable
pit filed and rammed with common clay
containing iron. The pit had served its
purpose for storing dung for about two
years, dnring which time, occasionally,
to prevent over.heating, water had been
poured over it. Lately it became neces-
sary to remove the pit, when to the
great surprise Of DIR. Feitmann' he found
the clay had entirely changed in charae-
ter, and had become white; it was,
moreover, divided in numerous directions
by assures, from l.25th to 10th inch in
width which were filled by compact
iron pyrites. The explanation DIR. Fleit-
mann gives is that the iron oxide OF the
clay was changed by the water, contain
ing sulphate of ammonia, into sulphate
Of iron, and the latter had, in accordance
with molecular attraction, deposited
itself in groups of assures.

Dr. Talmage in one Of his recent ser
mons in New York, lays the lash oil his
rhetoric upon the petty scandal mongers
after this approved fashion: AZ
I'm calling TIE rial Of thcwoslds viii
iainy," said DIR Talmage, paul puts in
the midst those persons known IN all
communities as whisperers. Whisperers
are always first-class liars. They are
masculine and femenine, with tendency
TO majority on the ride Of those who
are called the lords Of creation. These
creatures are solsmall that they escape
the fine. tooth comb OF law. They are to
be found everywhere, but their paradise
is country village Of about one or two
thousand people, where everybody
knows everybody. The world to them
is a whispering gallery. One man or
woman set on fire with this hellish
spirit will keep a whole neighborhood
aboil. When two or three OF these
whispcrers get together they stir a caul-
dron of trouble which makes me think Of
the three witches of Macbeth dancing
around boiling cauldron in dark cave.
There is only one person worse than the
whisperer, and that is the man or woman
who listens without protest An ancient
writer declares that the slanderer and
the man who believes the Islander ought
both to be hanged, the one by the tongue
and the other by the ear-and | agree
with him. Don't retail gossip! Don't

DR.. Franklin Gray, physician of the
Fifth Avenue Hotel, who died about o
year ago, told friend that on one oe-
casion lie discussed the question Of
slavery with General jackson in the Ex-
ecutive Mansion at Washington. Jack
son then said: sit is a great evil and a
great hypocrisy for republican people
to keep up. am in favor of abolishing
it, but not on the colonization plan. i
think we could buy the slaves as GOV
eminent and save ourselves the conse-
quenees of an agitation that is already
rising. l am in favor of paying fer them,
so that nobody will have it to- his inter
est to be in favor of slavery. Then /
would colonize them in California. We
can buy California for a small sum Of
money, and make it the preparatory
school Of the African race"

Z Now, here is a mule story that will do
you good, especially as it comes from the
East: A man, wishing to examine n
mules hoof, got the animal out behind
the barn, and having thrown it upon its
back, carefully chained its feet and tied
big weight to its tail. Then he bent
over the hoof to examine it, and just as
he did so man in the next yard SHE'D a
rock at hen. So mad was he that he
threw the rock with such terrible force
that in the exertion he sprung muscle,
and the rock flew away over the hen and
took the mule man in the jaw and busted
four front teeth for him, toppling him
over as quick, as q shot. He crawled six
rods away from the mule on his hands
and knees before he ventured to stand
up, then he rose and sadly rubbed his
jaw and remarked: "Chains are no use;
I knew the burned cuss iwsuld get his
work in on me anyhow"
