The Celestial Empire, Shanghai.
The primitive sackcloth, it would APP
pear, is still the mourning raiment of
the Coreans. During visit paid by
the squadron under the command of
Admiral Willes, in September last, to
ports on the East Coast of Corca, the
officials were wearing 'greyish hemp
en- garments" which in that country
denote mourning, and the admiral was
informed that the whole nation had gone
into mourning, for a year for the Queen,
who had died in consequence of the
shock to her feelings caused by the pro-
ceedings of the rioters at Seoul In the
matter of dress generally the Coreans
are favorably spoken of, nearly every
one being decently dressed; and real
well-dressed Corean, in his broad hat
and white robes, is said to have an emf
nently respectable and well-to.do APP
pearance. Their towns, however, offer
a distinct contrast, sanitary science be-
ing little understood, and architecture not
having got beyond n rudimentary stage;
but in one respect they seem to be
ahead of the West. The smoke from
the fires in the kitchen is made to pass
i'm flues underneath the rest of the house,
and although the chimney is projected
in an incongruous way into the streets,
the whole building IS quite comfortably
warmed bv n limited expenditure OF fuel.

BY reference to the figures taken
from the assessment roll OF 1882 which
are given in another article 1t will be
seen that E,meralda County was not
so completely demolished AS some pee
pie thought. A great many were
under the impression that one half of
our taxable property had been taken
away, and very few estimated the loss
at less than one.third. Itnow appears
that the total destruction will amount
to but little more than one.tifth of what
was in the county in 1882, and what is
left is The portion which is constantly
improving. Since the assessment of
'52 was made, additions have been
made to the assessable property of the
county which will make the next roll
nearly, If not quite us large AS the last.
Since the time for assessment, other
valuable properties have been added to
the assets of the county and next year
the roll will be much larger, The bull.
ion output will also be greatly increased
by the work on the MoLnt Cory mii',
which as yet, does not appear on the
books, and from the proceeds of nu
mcrous mines--some Old mines which
are resuming work, xnd others, new
locations which arc beginning to pay
What is leftiof the county is steadily
improving and.i in year, with our
rapid improvement, we will have, prob
ably, the most prosperous county in
the State. The comparatively small
area cut OF leaves us still with enough
territory to make several good sized
counties. The future of the county is
assured and the little strip of COW
country which we lost will not be
missed.

Assessor Kinds has finished the
work Of segregating the assessment
roll Of 1882, as ordered by the Court,
for the purpose of determining
the amount of Indebtedness of this
county which Lyon County must MS
sumo. The total assessment of 1882
was $1,441, GAG 60. The amount Of
assessment on property which was set
off into Lyon County, last Winter was
$263,271. Lyon County, under the
provisions of the segregation bill, is to
assume apart OF our debt In proportion
to the properly received, and the
District Judge is to determine the
amount. This Indebtedness so divided
will probably be decided to be the
amcuDt owing by Esmeralda County
on March LIST, the day the bill was
passed. As thiStlate is not ut the end
Ola quarter, when the books are closed
and balances struck of, rthe exact
figures do not show, but the total
indebtness on ApriI Is Twas $62,014 10.
This sum includes the additional deLt
and interest of one month, butt from it,.
An approximate estimate can be made
which will give near idea as to the
amounts to he apportioned to the two
counties. Leaving ont the cents in
the calculation, if the Indebtedness of
April LIST were the basis, the portion
to be assumed by Lyon County would
be $1l, 1924. This is but iriflc greater
than the sum will actually be if the
date of settlement is taken as the first
day of March.
