HE EORsD UP AGAIN.

The charge is again freely made
hat the Governor has dipped into
the political pool, in his character
istic way and held the vetoing power
over members in the Senatorial
matter. We do not know by what
proofs this charge can be substan-
tiated, but all citizens feel that
the Gubernatorial office should be
above the breath of such suspic-
ions. We believe that those who
take pride in the State would
like it better if this sort of talk
did not fill the air at every session,
and the conscientious Democrats
feel annoyed that there could be
anything in the conduct of the
Governor which could give rise to
talk SO freely made.
There is a dignity attached to
this Office which the Governor
seems unable to fully comprehend.

killed a man named NORM for hav.

by the jury. The verdict was rem

in their combination talent of a
high order and a quality far above
the average variety companies,
either in large cities or on the road.
We take the following from the
San Francisco Post, which should
recommend them to the patronage
and consideration of our people:
NJ. B. Leavitt's Gigantic Spec

The Home Club /.

Last evening there was a packed
audience at the Opera House, to
witness the opening play Of TIE
Home Dramatic Company. "Jessy
We're" was presented in style that
showed great pains on the part
of all Of the amateurs, who ap
pear to be chuck full of talent. The
fine music was also a very enjoya-
bic part of the performance. To
say just how well everybody played
or make any invidious distinction,
the APPEAL dramatic critic would
hardly dare. The audience was
delighted and tho company made
plenty Of MONEY! a. it deserved to.

AGRICULTURAL.

There are some portions of the
Governors Message, notably the
one touching upon the agricultural
and cattle raising industries, which
reflects much credit on the executive
officers. Although he made no
specialrecommendations upon these
matters, the prominence he gave
them in his Message ought to re-
suit in some good legislation upon
the subject.
These interests are growing and
it is true that this State possesses
the finest cattle ranges in the
world. Its natural product of
bunch grass and the white sage
possesses more of the real elements
OF wealth than the mines, and if
these industries were more extern
sively fostered the wealth of Ne
vada would not only become greatly
augmented but become permanent.
The Governors views upon the
subject are sound, and should COM
mand more of the attention of the
Legislature than they are now re-
ceiving.

he determined never to go back to Scot
land, but having received permission
from Fin -Mac-Cool he remained in
Ireland. Mac-Cool's bridge or cause
way being Of no further use, was sur-
fcrcd to so to ruin. All that now re-
mains of it is small portion Mt Staffa,
Scotland, another portion on the Island
Rathlind and the part in ireland. This
tradition, however interesting when told
by glib tongucd Irishman, will not
satisfactorily account for the Giants

Ireland sheet of basalt varying in
thickness from ten to a thousand feet
This sheet covers several hundred square
miles. 1t is q volcanic lava, and was
most propably poured over the country
when in a molten state. Columnar
basalt is principally found along the
coast from f5ft Rush to Fairhead. 1t is
most evident that at ssSc..c period in the
past great geological charges he takcn

probable that in the future some great

Two Strange Stories Told by Will

ttves.
Some time after the execution Of Mrs
Surratt, says w. P. Wood in the Wash
ington Gazette, President j Johnson sent
for me and requested me to give nv yer.
sion OF Mrs. Suarntt's connection with
the assassination Of Prcsident.Lincoln.
| did SO, and l believe he was thorough
ly convinced Of the innocence Of Mrs,
Surratt. He assured me he sincerely
regretted that he had not given Mrs.
Surratt the benefit Of Executive elem
ency aud strongly expressed his detes-
tatlon OF what he termed the ''infamous
conduct of Stanton" in keeping these
facts from him. asserted nv un
chansablc friendship for Mr.. Stanton
under all circumstances, and while re-
gretted the course adopted by the Sec
retary Of War towards Mrs. Surratt |
never hesitate to perform any act of
kindness for him. President johnson
commended ME for my devotion to
friends, and the subject Of the assassin
alton was never afterwards discussed be-
tween him and myself. The great War
Secretary Of the Union was no longer in
power. He was plain citizen of our
Republic. broken in health and tot,crins
between li!e anS death.
Hhe Republican leaders -lsi after
much pleading, induced President tirsn,
to name Mr.. Stanton for Judge of the
Supreme Court. The Senate promptly
confirmed the nomination, but Grant, fol
some reason best known to himself did
not nut his signature to the commission
or if he did sign the commission he did
not forward it to Mr.. Stanton. 1t was
at this time the latter sent for inc, and
called at his residence on X street
When ushered into his presence / was
startled at his woe-begonc and wrctched
appearance. He inquired if knew the
reason why that man (meaning Gnnt>
withheld his commission. told him
no. Then we drifted in our talk to the
execution herein referred to, and he re.
buked mo for not making greater effort
TO save the woman that was hanged
He said he would have trusted his life
in my keeping; that would have saved
him the torments Of hell had l been
moro persistent in my efforts. Ircmind-
cd him OF my call on Preident johnson
to plead for mercy for Mrs. Surratt, and
that was met by L. c. Baker at the en-
trance Of the Presidents house, and Ba-
ker produced an order over his (Stan-
ton's) signature which set forth that !
should not be permitted to enter the
building or communicate with the Presi.
dent.
"Too true," he responded, "and the
Surratt woman haunts me so that nv
nights are slccpless and my days miscr-
able. and Grant aids my enimies by re-
fusing to sign my commission, which
would afford me temporary relief and
perhaps prolong my life. He will not
do it Wood, this is at last the" Placing
his hand to his head he continued 81

A few parting words were exchanged
between us, and the following day the
death of Edwin NJ Stanton was publicly
announced. He never received his COM
mission of Judge Of the Supreme Court,
though he had been confirmed by the
Senate Of the United States.

WHY He Stopped Drinking.

mo, won't drink with you to-day
boys" said a drummer to several 9th
crs as they settled down in the smok
ing car and passed the bottle. 9TH,
fact is, boys, have quit drinking; Nv,
sworn of"
His words were greeted by shouts Of
laughter by the jolly crowd around
him; they put the bottle under his
nose and INDUCED in many jokes a
his expense, but he refused to drink,
and was rather serious about it.
''What is the matter with you. old
boy" sang out one. IF you've
sworn off drinking, something is up;
tell us what it is?"
"Well, boys, will, although 1 know
you'll laugh at me. But I'll tell you
all the same. L have been drinking
man all my life, ever since | was mar
ried; as you all know, | loye whiskey
Its as sweet in my mouth as sugar
and God only knows how I'll quit it.
For seven years not day passed over
my head that | didn't have at least
one drink. But 1 am done. Yester-
day l was in Chicago. On South
Clark street a customer of mine keeps
pawnshop in connection with his
other branches of business Well, l
called on him, and while l was there
a young man of not more than twenty
five, wearing threadbare clothes, and
looking as hard as if he hadn't seen
sober day for month, came in with
a little package in his hand. Tremb-
llngly he unwrapped 1t, and handed
the article to the pawnbrokcr, saying:
"Give me ten cents. :"
"And. boys, what do you suppose
that it was? A pair of baby shoes,
little things with the buttons only
trife soled, as if they had been worn
only once or twice"
where did you get these?" asked
the pawnbroker.
SCOT 'em at home" replied the
man who had an intelligent face and
the manner of gentleman, despite
his sad condition. "My-mv wife
bought them for our baby. Give me
ten cents for 'em--I want drink"
''You had better take the shoes back
to your wife; the baby will need
them," said the pawnbroker
mo, s-she won't, because-because
she's dead. She's lying at home now
died last night"
Gas he said this the poor fellow
broke down, bowed his head on the
showcase and cried like child. |
Boys, said the drummer, you can
laugh if you please, but II have a
baby of my own at home, and | swear
Pll never drink another drop.
Then he got up and went into an
other car. His companions glanced at
each other in silence; no one laughed;
he bottle disappeared, and soon each
vas sitting in seat by himself, read
ne a newspaper.

IN WINTER.

Oh, to go back to the DAYS Of June,
Just to be young and live again,
Hearken sCain to the mad. sweet tune
Birds were singing with might and main:
South they flew at the summers wane,
Leaving their nests for storms to harry,
Since time was coming for wind and rain
Under the wintry skies to marry.
YEARLY wander by dale and dune
Footsteps iettered with clanking chain
Free they were in the days Of June,
Free they never can be again:
Fetters of age and letters OF pain,
joys that ils, and sorrows that tarry-
Youth is over, and hope were vain
Under the wintry skies to marry.
Now we chant but desolate rune
''Oh, to be young and live again:"-
But never December turns to June
And length of living is length of pain:
Winds in the nestless tees complain,
Shows of winter about us tarry,
And never the birds come back again
Under the wintry skies to marry.
ENvoI.
Youths and maidens, blithesome and vain,
Time makes thrusts that YOU cannot parry
Mate in season, for who is fain
Under the wintry skies to marryl

Famous Old "Blues.n


Many lovers of old London will re-
greet that Christ's hospital, as build
ing on its present site, is doomed by
the reorganization scheme of the char
ity commissioners. How many old
blues, scattered throughout our col
ONES and serving her majesty in all
quarters of the globe, will also hear
with pang that their time honored
school has come under the auctioneer's
hammer, and vanished in the wake of
Temple bar and other relics of the
past, to be remembered hereafter only
by antiquaries! Fifty years ago its
requiem would have been sung in fit
ting verse by Coleridge, who loved the
old school so dearly, or by Charles
Lamb, whose ''Recollections of
Christ's Hospital are among the
most delightful of his papers. These
two are not the only old blues who
have made a name for themselves in
the world. OF its earliest scholars,
mention may be made of Joshua
Barnes. the editor of Anacreon and
Euripides; Jeremiah MARYLAND, an
eminent critic, particularly in Greek
literature; Thomas Mitchell, the trans
lator of Aristophanes, and Samuel
Richardson, the author of "Clarissa
Harlowe." Charles Lamb and Cole
ridge belonged to n later era, and
were there in company with Leigh
Hunt and Thomas Barnes, for many
years editor of The Times newspaper.
Actors of note may be mentioned in
Leigh Murray and Wright, of the
Adelphi both old blues and In the
same room. OF Anglo-Indian blues
we can call to mind Sir Louis Cavag-
mari and Gen. Cunningham, with his
brother, Col. Cunningham, of The Sat
