 Early in the afternoon of the 2Sth ult., our con unity was shocked from center to .rculnteTence hy the sad intelligence that Bunyan Murry was dead from pistol shot in his own hand. At first it was thought that the shooting was accidental-as was published m last weeks paper, but subsequent investigation has proven conclusiyely that it was a clear ease of promcdtated seltmur- der. Tho cause is as yet unknown, aud perhaps will ever be wrapped in mystery. of course all believe his mental faculties were unbalanced, but as to what caused the trouble is a matter of conjecture Bunyan was one of our most popular and de- serving young men, and his death is greatly deplored by all of his many friends. To the widowed mother, brothers and sisters, and other grief stricken relatives, is extended th' sincere sympathy of all, in their ,o>c bereavement, Coop LfCN.

GRAND JURY REPORT.
To the Hon. Rufus D. Hearn, Judge
 of the Sth Judicial Circnit:


 We, the grand jury, duly selected and empanneled for this term of the Honorable Nevada Circuit Court, to inquire into all violations of the law in said county, beg leave to submit this as our final report:
 We have made diligent investi- gation of all violations of law com mitted in said county, that have been brought to our notice, and of which we have received information We have examined a goodly number of witnesses and presented indict- ments in all cases which in our opin- ion the evidence warranted.
 We have examined as best we could, in the limited time allotted us, the accounts of the Sheriff, Treasur- CT and Clerk, and find that they keep the records of their offices neat ly and in due form.
 We have examined the poor home and farm attached, and find same in dilapidated condition and sadly in need of repairs, there being only one home on the premises. We re- spectfnlly recommend that the farm and home be placed in good and suitable condition, and that an addi- tional home be erected for the bene- fl of the colored occupants.
 We find that great number of the road over-scers of the county failed to make their reports in prop CT form, and respectfully call their attention to same. We find that the road districts of the county are in a confused state and recommend that the County Court re-district the county as soon as possible, and fur nish oversees with proper blanks up on which to make their reports. We find that some Justices of the peace and school directors do not perform their whole duty in making their re- ports, and we hereby earnestly rec ommend that the next grand jury of this county present indictments against all road-oversecrs, school di- roctors and justices of the peace who fail to comply with the law in the fu- ture in making their reports. We find that constables of the county are sometimes slow in making their reports to the County Court and set ting with the Treasurer. We re- spectfully call the attention of the County court to this matter and rec ommend that all constablcs be forced to proper settlement at the first of each quarter.
 We hereby tender our thanks to the Court and Sheriff, together with the deputies, for the uniform courte- sies showned us during our session, and now having completed our la- bors, VIC ask to be discharged,

Have an Eye to Your Eyes.

How few think of the value of good eyes, till they begin to fail; How many have failing eyes and don't know it, or if they know it, are ashamed to make it known: Of those who wear spectacles, how few have them to fit, or suit their eyes And how few know that an imperfect fit injures the eye? We have for several years made q speciality of the eye, it's study and treatment, and for twoivo months have made a specially of testing and fitting fine glasses by the aid of the Johnston Dioptric Eye Meters. We gUaran- tee fit, and perfect satisfaction, and when this is done, with good pebbles, tue eve not only ceases to fail, or as is said, "go from you" but the sight generally improves. To all who wish to know if their glasses fit their eyes, and to those who have never worn glasses, and want 10 know whether they need or would be benefited by the use Gf glasses, we offer a free examination. Specta- cles of all kinds furnished at reason able rates. Respectfully,
