THE COHlSTOCK.

The APPEALS charges against
the management Of the Comstock
mines does not bring out word Of
defense from any Of the regular
organs Of the companies. either in
Virginia City or at the Bay It il
because of the very simple reason
that the charges are everywhere
recognized as true. Every miner.
stock operator and dealer knew
that they cannot be truthfully de-
MED. We honestly believe that a
good showing of ore in several DIFF
efrent places could be made if the
managers would only make up their
minds to do so. When the con.
nection between the Lode and
Pine street is severed, a change for
the better will come. Pine street
holds the key to the situation, and
nothing will ever be done until the
orders come from below. The pub
lie is the under dog in the fight

THE DEATH or AATC
CAVAVAN.

On Sunday the news was re-
Gel, ed from San Francisco OF the
sudden death of Matt Canavan,
who passed away at his home in San
Francisco, almost without a mo-
ment's warning. There was no
man in Nevada whose death would
cause more general regret than Mr..
Caravans. He was a representa-
tive sagebrusher, and for many
years past has led a wonderfully
active life, crowding two or three
mems work into one and always
conspicuous figure, both in bust
ness and politics. He came to this
coast from Australia, and, although
lacking the advantages of finished
education, he was gifted with
natural intellect of astonishing
power. He could discuss almost
any national question alta moments
notice in way that bewildered his
listeners, and few incisive senten-
ces dropped from his lips clothed
in original phrases and homeIy
metephor, was certain to give any
body in the vicinity ample food for
reflection. He had the rare fac
ulty of always understanding what
he was talking about and of hitting
the nail squarely on the head. In
business his forethought and
Judgment was proverbial, and no
matter how complex the problem
presented might be, he could cut the
Gordian knot at single stroke. In
politics he was recognized leader
and manipulation, and while these
positions made him the target Of
no end of abuse and defamation,
his honor as a man was never sue
cessfully questioned, and time al
ways demonstrated that he was in
the right. His bitterst enemies
acknowledged his ability and never
denied that his word was guilt
edged collateral at all times.
His heart was as warm as ever
beat in a mans breast, and he was
constantly responding to the de-
wands Of charity. The poor Of the
Comstock will remember the kind
" hand that was SO often stretched
down to them in their distress, for
his purse was always open and any
one who passed had but to reach
out and gather toll from it.. In all
the yicissitudes and battles Of life
a drawer man never faced Difficult
ties, and there was no foe so gener-
Gus and forgivirg as he.
BY his death the State loses
citizen it can lily spare and one
whose memory will always awaken
the profoundest regrets.

Solitude.

There are two kinds of solitude,
the first consisting of insulation in
space, the other of isolation of spirit.
The first is simply separation by dis
lance. When we are seen, touched
heard by none, we are said to be
alone. And all hearts respond to the
truth of that saying, This is not SOL
itude; for sympathy can people our
solitude with a crowd. The fisherman
on the ocean alone at night is not
alone when he remembers the earnest
longings which are arising up to
heaven at home for his safety. The
traveller is not alone. when the faces
which will greet him on his arrival
seem to beam upon him as he trudges
on. The solitary studenS is not alone
when he feels that human hearts will
respond to the truths which he is
preparing to address to them.
The other is loneliness of soul
There are times when hands touch
ours, but only send an icy chill Of
unsympathizing indifference to the
heart; when eyes gaze into ours, but
with a glazed look which cannot read
into the bottom of our souls; when
words pass from our lips, but only
come back as an echo reverberated
without reply through dreary soil.
tude; when the multitude throng and
press us, and we cannot say, as Christ
said, Somebody hath touched me-
for the contact has been not between
soul and soul, but only between form
and form.-ReU. r. W. Robertson.

Observe Thanksgiving Day.

The President of fine United States
has issued his proclamation calling
the people of all the States to thanks
giving and praise on next Thursday,
9th inst.
There is special propriety in call
ing the people to thanksgiving this
year. Providence has been profigate
in it's favors to the people. Peace
and prosperity have prevailed, and
though a vicious system of govern
ment has put unjust, unequal and
onerous burdens on the working peo-
pie, fair measure of industrial activ-
ity has prevailed.
But the greatest boon came in the
election of Cleveland on the 4th inst.
If other sources of happiness were
less abundant in that alone would be
found substantial grounds for uni
versal thanksgiving. By it the peo-
pie are guaranteed honest govern
ment. Extravagant expenditures viii
be cut off and the excessive taxes will
remain in the pockets of the poor
people to whom the money belongs
What greater public reason than this
for thanksgiving can be conceived
Every man, woman and child in tht
country should give the day fixed tc
feasting and praise.

MISERY is a trial, but it makes this
world undesirable; and persecution
estranges man from resting on
earthly friends, and forces him to
choose One whom he would never
have chosen if any other had offered;
but prosperity makes earth home,
and popularity exalts self and invites
compliance to the world. It is the
old story of one winter in Capua
effecting a ruin for Hannibal which
neither the snow of the Alps nor
the sun of Italy, the treachery of the
Gauls nor the prowess of the Re-
mans, could achieve"

Georgia Yellow Pine.

The Southern Merchant, trade Jour-
nal published in Baltimore, says: ssPeo-
pie who are not directly identified with
the lumber trade have no idea of the
enormous production of lumber in the
Southern States. But, large as it is, its
development is almost in infancy, and
with proper disposal of capital and en-
ergy there can be no limit placed to pro-
duetion. At present the market is some
what overstocked because of the diff
culties and exorbitant cost of transport
tation. But these, in time, will be
overcome; and the South will furnish
the world with full supply of lumber
particularly of hard and fine woods.
Pine wood has not generally been con-
sidered in the latter category, but the
Georgia yellow pine is now in high favor
as the best of our native woods for fine
interior work y The Southern Merchant
proceeds to state that the lumber bust
ness of Atlanta is enormous. the claim
being made that this city will soon be
the largest market south of Baltimore.
Whether Atlanta becomes the great
market for this product or not, it is
plain that every foot of pine in the State
will soon have rising value, and that
the business of saving and shipping
lumber viii increase year by year, until
it becomes of immense proportions and
timber lands be in sharp request. The
days of yalueleSs timber are passing
away; and our object in writing this
article is TO induce holders of pine lands
not to permit waste or to sell their lands
for a song. The country viii soon take
all the yellow pine that we can prepare
for market, and each succeeding year
will then add to the value Of the stand
ing product. There need be no haste in
the marketing of pine timber, for every
year reduces the quantity Of white pine
and increases the value of yellow pine.
