That Volcano Again.
ESPECIAL TO THE sEYrrNEI.l

The Inyo County Register furnishes the
following: Now comes George N. CLARK
our Justice OF the Peace, with some re-
liable testimony concerning that alleged
volcano near Mammoth. He says there ia
something OF the kind there for o fact,
having himself seen 1t. It is located near
the apex OF 9 lofty volcanic cone some six
miles from the old town Of Mammoth.
Climbing to 1t early last week. he and
others found a hole there some three or
four feet In diameter. At times smoke,
then again steam, as If from q deep mining
shaft. was curling gently up from this hole,
There w:5 no notable rumbling or rushing
noise. nor anything in particular to terrify
anybody, except the certainty that il was
natures laboratory below that was produc'
ing this smoke and steam and not mans.
The hand could be held over this crater
indefinitely without suffering from heat
in either the steam or smoke. A stone
thrown in continued its descent until its
knockings against the sides grew so faint
they could be no longer heard. This
information comes to us at second hands,
but II Ia reliable. The new wonder is
about forty.fve miles distant from this
place, from which, we're II anything like q
first-class volcano in full blast. Its light
and smoke could be seen. ,

Influence of civilization.

There have been many striking examples
of late years Of the astonishing influence
that mere contact with civilized people is
capable Of exercising over the tastes, man
ners. and morals Of savsges. King Get

wearing q stovepipe hat. was at first sight
o MISUNDERSTANDING barbarian, but it did
not take long to see that his new dress ex-
pressed On actual change in the man. and
that the mere power of example had con.
WINGED him that IL was bettor to live, aud
as far as possible to look, like u Europesn
than like Zulu. The latest instance Of this
silent influence of civilization is furnished
by the King OF Dahomey, who, In Difference
to the feelings of the Portuguese. whose
Government has assumed the protection
OF his kingdom, nou that he will no
longer enliven his festivals by the massacre
OF slaves and prisoners of war. Civilized.
manners are, after all. more powerful
than guns in conquering savages.

10 the Situation.
ESPECIAL TO THE sENTrNEL.l
VIRGINIA. New, Oct. 20.-A public meet
ing Of the citizens Of Virginia was held las
evening under the auspices Of the Nevadi
Silver Association to take action on The
silver question. There was q large attend
snce, and much interest was taken 10 the
proceedings. The FIRST business transacted
was the adoption Of the following resolu.
tions submitted By Hon. G. c. Thomas
and seconded by Judge Atkinson and Hon.
D. B. Lyman:
Whereas. The people of Nevada have
been and are largely engaged in the pro-
ducsion of gold and silver. having invested
their capital and devoted their labor to
the industry Of mining. and having ex-
pended the best years of their lives to de-
veloping that industry until il has become
to-day the broad winning work Of thous.
ands Of families; therefore be it
Resolved, That we view with alarm
the b~ondholders' conspiracy to depress
labor, destroy values and paralyze the
energies and industries OF the civilized
world by their agitation TO demonetize
silver, a policy, which, Unsuccessful. means
low We 3es. low prices and social des.ada-
ton, with q tendency to human slavery.
Resolved, That the enormous bonded
indebtedness of Tire world, amounting to
not less than $50, 600, 600. in the hands OF
q few inscriptions sristocrats. has already
destroyed all hopes OF liberty 10 most Of
the old world. and is threatening the in.
dependence and future of the American
people; that by retiring one-half Of the
metallic currency of the world the
basis OF values upon which this
bonded Indebtedness WIS created.
the debt itself is virtually doubled.
II Is. therefore, plain propo.
sition that he who goes in debt sells money
short that is, he az eos to deliver it ct Q
future day, something that he does not
possess. Understanding this proposition
the object Of the ~meaipulators Of the
bonded Indebtedness OF the world is to
make gold dear and labor cheap, thereby
increasing their mortgage upon the pre-
ductive resources Of the world.
Resolved, That the demonstration Of
tilver will compel the producer to pay the
bondholders two bushels Of wheat. two
bales Of cotton and two tons OF iron,
where be contracted to pay only for one. 4
Resolved. That to the people of Nevada
the agitation to dcmonetize silver Is more
especially aggravating, since the success OF
such g policy involves the humiliation Of
millions OF dollars worth Of capital looked
up in their mills and mines, thus indicting
ruin and bankruptcy upon q people who
have under the encouragement OF the Gov
eminent developed the mining industry
- -
territory. where they have successfully
planted ell the influences OF American
civilization and founded q free and sover-
ign State.
Resolved, That our Senators and Repre-
sentative in Congress, irrespective OF party.
be requested to use their influence by all
honorable means TO avert so dire o calam.
ity as Is involved in the threatened de-
monet'zation OF silver.

Carp Ponds.

Some six years ago Mr. +. B. Isett, of
Spruce Greek, availed himself of the op-
portdnity to stock pond on his premises
with twenty-five German carp, which he
obtained from the department at Washing
ton. He was probably the first gentleman
in the country to introduce carp culture
and has made it complete success, bav-
ing at this time, as he estimates, about a
million carp Of all sizes. We had the pleas
ure of a visit to NJ. Isett's ponds few
days since. and found him not only willing
but delightful to show his pets, a feeling
however. but didn't seem TO be shared by
the fish, for they are very shy of strangers,
and didn't show off on first acquaintance,
in the afternooA with any perceptible degree
of enthusiasm, but kept quietly con cealed
under their green, messy cOnOpy. But in
the evening about feeding time, there was
enough animation on the waters to con
vince the most incTedulOus that carp do
move Mr. Isett gave them bread crusts
and bran shorts, and such a trembling. jump
ing, biting and swallowing it would have
delighted any lover OF Isaac Walton's pas
time to have witnessed. The carp, until
they get oveE two years old, are very tame,
and will come TO the surface and eat food
held in your hand, but the old fellows don't
appreciate any such familiarity. They keep
at distance ard prefer that you do the
same. The young fry are easily caught
with a hook and line, when you know how.
They viii bite greedily at piece of bacon,
which they mistake for bread (they won't
eat meat Of any kind), and if you are care.

how they pull They are as gamey as bass
and fight for life with as much vipor. and
the person who Imagines that carp are a
lazy, sluggish fish will find that he is mis-
taken when he tries 10 catch one.
Mr.. Isett has now three ponds. In one he
has seven large carp, which are breeders
They are six years old. One of them when
caught fast fall measured twenty-five inches
long, fifteen inches in circumference, and
weighed eight and a-half pounds. This
gives some idea OF the rapidity Of the carp's
growth in size and weight.
In another pond are kept the one and two
year old carp, and Of these Mr.. Isett has so
many that he dosen't pretend to count them
until he let's the pond 60 dry. In the ad-
joining ponds are thousands of this years
spawn. The water in each Of the ponds is
kept almost stagnant so that it can be as
warm as possible, only enough water being
let in to provide for little more than is lost
by evaporation.
Mr.. Tsstt finGs pleasure - vel as profit
in keeping carp. and we see no reason why
the culture of this elegant food feb should
not be more general in this country, espe-
cially where even altmited supply Of spring,
