The Baily Sranseript. NEVADA OFPY, CALIFORNIA, COUNRY & CITY OFFICIAL PRESS., he DAY, APRIL 21,.1867. Union County Centra CoMMITTEE. ‘There will ‘be a meeting of the Union County Central Committee, on ‘Thursday, the 26th day of April, 1867, at 2 o’clock P.M., at the Armory of the Nevada Light ‘Guard, Nevada. City. A full attendance is requested. ; N. W. KyNow ton, Chairman. A. C. Niuzs, Sécretary. —e RE@isTRATION.—Tfiere are now something over two thousand names enrolled upon~the Great Register’ The voting population of this county 4s in the neigh~borhood of five thousand. —In—other counties registration is slower than here, and it is evident that unless something is done to bring ‘the people up, the vote at the next _ Btate election will be exceedingly small. Citizens should take an interest in urging their neighbors to enroll,and the members of the Central Committees in the various ‘districts should see that all voters are qualified. The: registration of names is / attended with no expense. The names of native citizens may be given to the county . Assessor or his deputies. Naturalized’ citizens must apply 'to the County Clerk, and that officer will visit the various townships in order to give them ‘an opportunity. The registration of names is. only required for oncewhd is for ever after an evidence of citizenship. The naturalized citizen, after being enrolled, has his evidence of citizenship, without being required on any occasion to show his papers, The good effects of the registry law, in preventing fraud and illegal voting, have ~ already become-manifest,and-in a great measure the purchasable material is excluded from a patticipation in politics.— Men who use corrupt means to secure their ends usually rely upon ‘illegal yotes ta, do it, and these being effectually excluded, the field for such praetices is limi ted. Every good citizen’ should sustain this law and see that its provisions are carried out and that the people avail themselves of the privileges conferred by it.— + Letitbe remembered that no man will _ be entitled to vote in September next at the State election if he is not enrolled upon ‘the Great Register. There ought at least to be four thousand names upon the Great Register of this county by this time. ee _. A FONeRAL IN THE Syow.—On last ‘Thursday week, P. Casteel, who resided ‘on Catreet, Meadow Lake, went to his house in the evening,and being missed by his friends, on Saturday they searched for him and. found him smothered in the snow. The house is a story and a half high and was entirely buried in the snow. By the snow that occurred on Tuesday night, the stove pipe was covered. It is suposed Casteel endeavored to make a fire without getting an opening to the surface, and in trying to get out of the smoke Was sthothered. He was found laying in the window of the upper part of the house, half in the house and half inthe snow. His body was recovered on Saturday. and the funeral was very novel and imposing. The snow is twenty feet deep on theaverage. A sled was used as & hearse and the long procession followed on snow shoes. The solemnity of the scene was not even broken by the rattling of wheels, and as the procession moved along so noiselessly on the snow, following the poor man to his: last resting place, those who witnessed the scene were impressed more deeply than by any burial they had ever witnessed. The grave had to be dug through sixteen feet of snow before a burial place could be reached. THE FLAG.—The American Flag, D. O. McCarthy editor and proprietor, has reappeared ; this time smaller, but neater in typographical appearance and cheaper.— The first number contains excellent reading matter, and the paper will be a radical Union journal, In the introductory, the editor says: “We intend to afford a journal for the people, which by its own force and attractions will necessarily make ite way to an ‘extensive circulation and a corresponding influence.” We wish the by Rev.

Pete struck an attitude, and putting on a look of extréme disgust, exclaimed, “Good God;ain’t L low enough down already?” ~For those ‘acquainted with Peter; Comment is unnecessary. ° ~~ THE WEATHER.— Yesterday Was an exceedingly sultry day, just the right kind to precede a thunder storm or an earthquake. At this writing there is a fair prospect for another storm. <9 WATER SPout.—On Tuesday last, says the San Bernardino Guardian of March 23d, the rain poured down with unprece_ dented violence. in the Cajon Pass, <A cloud burst in that vicinity and the water . came rushing down the canon, in a mass, at least four feet high, tearing away everything in its course. “The deluge lasted about half an hour; had it continued throughout the day this whole valley would have been submerged. SP RoBERT STEPHENS was very fond of . reducing his scientfic reading to practice; and after studying Franklin’s description of the lightning experiment, he proceeded to expend his store ot Saturday pennies in purchasing about half a mile of copper wire ata brasier’s shop in Newcastle. Having prepared his kite, he sent it up in the field opposite his father’s door, and bringing the wires, insulated by means of a few feet of silk cord, over the backs of some of far. . mer Wigham’s cows, he soon had them akipping about the field in all dirpetions with their tails up. One day he had his kite flying at the cottage door as his father’s galloway ~ hanging by the bridle to the paling, w iting for the master to mount. Bringing the end of the wire just over the pony’s crapper, 80 smart an electric shock was given it, that the brute was almost knocked down. At this juncture the father issued from the door, ridingwhip in hand,and was witness to the scien. tific trick just played off upon his gatloway. “Ah! you mischievous scoundrel!” cried he to the boy, who ran off. He inwardly chuckled with pride,never. theless, at Robert’s successful experiment. Se nee MARRIED, : ee At Indian Springs, Nevada county, April 18th, A.
