AN EMBARRASSING POSITION,

The position of Governor O'Ferrall in
regard TO the Lunenburg prisoners, con
victed OF the murder of Mrs. Pollard,
is very embarrassing one. to ssy the
least. Judge Orgain, of that county,
has issued an order tor tho appearance
OF the prisoners before him SO that the
records OF the trial may be rectified,
and while the matter is more technical
than otherwise he peremptorily refuses
to modify it and insists on its literal en-.
forcement.
The governor has good reason to fear
that the prisoners will suffer bodily
harm II taken back to Lunenburg with
out gu fhclent protection, and very nat
urslly hesitates to put the State to tho
expense OF sending troops for that pur-
pose. So far, he has refused to sur
render them to Sheriff Csrdoz,, OF
Lunenburg county, and in this decision
he Is supported by the opinion of Attor-
neyGeneral Scott.
Should he still hold to this view he
will undoubtedly subjec. himself to
much adverse criticism; but on the other
hand, should the prisoners be taken 10
Lunenburg county and there lynche6,
the governor will incur grave respon-
sibility and bring upon the State OF Vir.
gluia and himself the general condem-
nation of the country and of the world
at large. In other words, while under
ordinary circun stsnces the mandates OF
the courts must be obeyed by tho great
est as wall as tae humblest in the land
there Is higher law O., Humanity to
which the governor must look, and by
which he will BIO justified regardless OF
legal bubbles aud technicalitics.

Napoleon's Statement About Euchien.

When Napoleon was on his deathbed,
a maiadroit attendant read from an Eng
lish review bitter arrnignment of him
as guilty of the dukes murder. The dy-
ing man rose, and catching up his will
wrote i'll his o~n hand: Il had the Duo
d'Enghien seized and tried because it
was necessary to the safety, the interest
and the honor of the French people,
when by his own confession tho Comte
d'Artois was supporting GO assassins in
Paris. Under similar circumstances 1
would again do likewise. ~ Neverthe-
less he gave himself the utmost pains on
certain occasions to unload the entire
responsibility on Talleyrand. To LORD
Burlington, to O'Meara, to Las Cases,
to Montholon, he asseverated that Tai

SECRETARY CARLISLE is looming up
very prominently as the successor in the
United States supreme court of the late
Justice Jackson, and there seems but
little doubt that he can get the appoint
ment IL he desires it. The result of the
election in Kentucky has rendered the
selection OF q Democrat to the United
States Senate almost impossible, and as
the Secretary Of the Treasury does not
care to retire from public life, the best
way apparently to suitably provide for
him will be to give him q place on the
supreme court bench. Mr.. Carlisle has
shown fidelity to the President worthy
OF such substantial recognition of his
services, and as Mr.. Cleveland is said to
have high regard for the secretary his
appointment as a justice of the highest
tribunal in the land would be very
natural sequence to concurrent circum-
stances.

in the sulphurets to the amount of
S125 per ton, making tho whole ma
tcrial worth from SO to $40, per ton
has changed, and in addition to the
value in sulphurets now carries from
$40 to $50 per ton in free gold. This
is considered extremely important by
the owners, for the reason that thi.
sulphuret material in the footwall
exists on this surface for 800 feet in
length. Its width is from FIVE to six
feet at least, but not having been cross
cut it's exact width is not yet deter
mined.

If the report current that an east
ern syndicate of moneyed gentlemen
is negotiating the building of another
railroad across Nevada to compete
with the Central Pacific, proves true,
this State will come to the front and
be in the lead of any State in the un-
ion in supporting competition of
this kind. Railroad competition means
reduction on freight rates from one
point to another, and reduction on
freight means more life and prosper
ity for the people of Nevada. Our
miners would make moro shipments
of low grade ore and still make few
dollars over the freight and the ex-
pense of reduction. Again our cattle
mon would become encouraged to the
extent of making cattle raising, even
more of an aim than it is now, and
that is saying a great deal. We have
industries here that would be advan.
ced by this much talked of eompeti
ton, and in various other ways il
would benefit the people of Nevada. :
