In NOTICING the many differences 10 the
makeup and utility of morning and afternoon
newspapers, the Philadelphia Call says:
"The breakiast-read journal, being got up at
night, almost always gives the impression of
tired workers. Occasionally it may say a
bright thing, but as a rule the morning papers
are dull ana heavy, as II the editors did not
get enough sleep. How bright is wel-con-
Quoted evening paper beside such a sheet
Written and printed in the blessed light OF
day, every line bears the impress Of brains re-
freshed by healthfu sleep in natures own
hours, and instead Of mere record Of events
it becomes genial and welcome companion.
The morning paper, like a bill board, is a
convenience; but good evening paper is at
once a luxury and a necessity"

The Danville riot in Virginia was started
by white man beating colored man with a
stick, while two other Democrats stood by
with pistols in their hands. The casualties,
as usual, we're all among the colored men,
who ran as fast as their legs would carry them
from the hre opened on them. The grand
Jury was largely composed Of members of the
Committee of Forty, and were no doubt Dem
ocrats and bound by party pressure and sym
patty to whitewash their party friends.

WHILE sorry to hear Of the illness Of Major
Barlow, Of the Waco Examiner, we must
confess we are not taken by surprise. 1t has
been evident that he was sureharged with bile,
in fact, suffering from iaundice, and modesty
alone kept the LIGHT from advising him
fortnight ago to try several doses Of blue pills
to quicken his torpid liver. When free from
bile, Major Bariow's urbanity will reappear
in gorgeous ellorescence and he will fall to
billing and cooling with the "reeent converts"
Billiousness almost changes an angel into a
demon, and we advise Major Barlow, in
future, to take blue pills twice a week to keep
down the bile.

The Albion situation.

A strenuous effort was made yesterday
to get all the attaching creditors Of the
Albion to sign the agreement, which has
already been much discussed, and by
which the miners, laborers and mechanics
would receive money for their wages, and
the mine be opened for work. The only
signature lacking to complete the list was
that OF Tredennick, who declined all
overtures to join the other creditors In
their action under the proposed agree
ment. The presumption is that this rem
ders impossible the settlement that has
been looked forward to with so much con-
fdenee. Still, a well known lawyer, inter-
ested in this matter, remarked to a Sen
TINEL reporter last night that the affair
would be arranged, Notwithstanding Tred-
ennick's refusal to sign the agreement.
We are not aware Of the plan by which he
proposes to accomplish this result, but it
Is the earnest wish OF the whole commu-
nifty that he may be successful. It is Of
vital Importance to the camp that work be
resumed in the Albion mine, and IL is GER
tainly very much to be regretted that a
settlement should not be arrived at by
which a large number Of laboring men, in
destitute circumstances, may get the few
dollars that they have earned and have
already been waiting for so long. II an
agreement can be had the men will be
paid off Immediately, as the money il
Already here and in hand for that purpose.

A number OF little boys and girls were
wild with fun and excitement last Sunday
EASTER morning. Mrs. W. Fl. Stowell,
in accordance with an old German Gus
tom, had three dozen eggs dyed in many
pretty %colors, and on each egg was written
the name OF some little boy or girl in the
neishborhood. The names were very
!astefully inscribed with varnish by Doc.
Stowell, who is remarkably skilful and
neat in this sort CT handiwork. On Sat-
urday night Mrs. Stowell took the eggs
and hid them separately in the yard, I'M
der boards, in out of the way cornera, be-
hind boxes and barrels and everywhere
else, so that it might be as much work as
possible for the youngsters to find them.
Shortly after breakfast all the lads and
lassies for whom the eggs had been named
were called over to her house and turned
loose in the yard to ferret out the three
dozen eggs. That they went to work vigor-
ously need not be mentioned. To hear their
shouts, and watch their expressions as
they flew about from place to place until
the very last egg was brought to light, was
as much an amusement for the old folks
as the actual hunt was for the little ones.

The De YOunys indicted,

W. N. Granger, visiting Eureka County
from Belmont, Nye County, Nevada,
stated yesterday in conversation with a
representative of the SENTINEL that
Charles and Michael de Young, of San
Francisco Chronicle fame, were indicted
by the Grand Jury of that county in 1862,
he thinks it was in that year or there
abouts, for cattle stealing at lone. He
says the indictments are of record and
still live. When asked if he was certain
of the correctness of his statement he an
swered, yes, perfectly so; that he had
read them himself, and if there was any
doubt Of the accuracy of what he affirmed
he would on his return home send back
certified copies of the documents referred
to. OF course the matter is of no interest
to anybody in this State except on account
of the notorious persons it concerns.
Charles de Young is dead, but Michael de
Young is at present proprietor Of the San
Francisco Chronicle. His paper, which
devotes much of its splendid energy to
working up sensations, may take hold Of
this for which we furnish the starter. A
detailed account of how they happened to
be indicted, whether they were guilty or
innocent, and how they managed to es-
cape out Of the sagebrush State, all told
under startling head lines and captivating
subheads would doubtless prove entertain
ing to the people Of San Francisco.
Mr.. Granger is a we'll known lawyer,
and is said to be accurate and more famil-
lar with the records Of Nye han any other
man in the county.
