TUESDAY, MARCH 11th, 1868. The Bay Gear NEVADA ont: catsronst4. / Fi Tue Reoisrry Law.—We notice that the committee oh election, in the Senate, have been unable to agree upon ny amendments to the Registry Law, while the ty of the committee ae : Mrvrs+A Washington; of the Bulletin says: correspond = he » from Nevada county— is pega \didate for Superintendent of the San Franciseo Mint. Conness has his heart.set upon this appointment, and will probably sacrifice anything else to secure it. I think he will trade off several other appointments with one or both of the Democratic Representatives, in order to put Dawley—inthe} ~. ¢hanges shonld.be made. ' months, Will report in favor of the repeal of the present law. That the law should be modified is generally conceded, but the _ best men of all parties believe that sdme system of registry should be adopt~ ed.-Sovernor Haight, in the last can, vases d€clared that he favored a registry ~ Jaw;and it is well known that the majority of the Union men are advocates of such a law. It is theretore not strict~~ Tye party measure, That such a system is calculated to prevent fraud in elections cannot be doubted. _ Its work““ings in the last two elections demon_ strated that it promoted order and instead of delaying, facilitated yoting.— There were no delays from challenges 98 for other reasons, the enrollment up,on the poll list being the evidence of . the right to vote. No new system when first indugurated ever worked better.— _. ‘Phe greatest inconvenience was to the ‘eitizen who was compelled to get his ‘name.upon tlie Great Register. That is now past as nearly all voters are en=. pefted Tt our: Legislature cannot sug-gest-any improvements the present law should stand. But we think that some of School Trustees which takes place in June, should be exempted. from the operations of the law, exvept so far as to ‘require those offering to vote: to make oo oath, if challenged, that they are residents of the District. and enrolled upon ‘the Great Register of the county. The same should be the case in all special school elections. An amendment should be made authorizing Town Trustees of incorporated towns te appoint enrolling _officers to make out poll lists and con-. been pursued, but the Registry Law -. Makes no provision for such cases. The Board of Supervisors now have only power to appoint election officers. In -_guch-towns. as Nevada and Grass -Val-ley, where the precinct lines are established by the’ Supervisors andthe cor: poration boundaries are not the same, such an amendment is necessary. If the Senate Committee cannot agree . _ upon. such necessary amendments a new committee should be appointed.— Let the defects of the law be corrected, but let us retain the Registry system. _ CONGRESSMEN —The 7imes says that . Congressmen will probably be nominated by the delegates who are sent to the State Convention which meets on the 8ist. We do not think this is good policy. Let the nomination of Congressmen go until the State Convention meets. to select electors, which will probably be in August or September.— Ashort and vigorous canvass is better than a long one, and candidates should not be kept in the field for six or eight a : CoRPORAL punishment of girls has been abolished in the Cambridge, Massachusetts, schools for one month, as an *. experiment; and its permanent abolishment atthe end of that time is exae Ad Milt, ARRANGEMENTS have been made by with Thomas Fitch of Nevada, for the delivery of a lecture for the benefit of that inatitution. * Gov.

Mint in place of Swain, who he heartily hates. Just now the chances for Dawley look pretty fair, so far as nomina“on is concerned. Cole can defeat the confirmation if he shall see fit to do so’; but then he tan’t. get Conness’ aid to secure any point which he (Cole) desires: There is great danger that indifferent men will obtain the Federal appointments, because of the probability that compromise men will be accepted in order to enable Cengressmén to parcel spoils among their personal friends. .

Horse Fowunp. ~The owner of a sorrel horse, which had a saddle and bridle on, and a rubber coat tied to the . saddle, can find his property on enguir-_ ing of H. Smith at Davenport & Dean’s butcher shop. — PRE-EMPTIONS.—Persons who preempted claims on odd sections, and have resided continuously upon their rauches since 1862, are entitled to purchase at Government rates.. The Grass established ranches can be 80 purchased as nearly all of them have changed hands, and must therefore be bought of the railroad company. THE arrival’ of Dickens has demoralized the Bostonians. A respectable divine of that city recently appeared betainment, to read one of his peculiar productions, behind a little crimson-covered stand with wT0BE Stuck in his button hole. Y DURING a recent session of a Committee in the Iowa State House, the ceiling fell and injured one Senator severely.. The others, escaped damage by a masterly. flank movement out of a window.

Tae New Hampsurme E.ectrion.— Corrected returns of the New Hampshire election, telegraphed from Concord, says the Union, show ‘that the majority for Harriman, the Republican candidate for Governor, is 2,530. The House stands—Republicans, 192, Democrats, 138. Harriman’s majority in 1867 was 3,146—House 202 Republicans to 128 Democrats. The falling off from the Republican side since 1867 is 616 votes for Governor and 10 Reprosentatives, Tr is said that Emigration from Ireland to New York has suddenly and greatly increased. i LATE news from Buenos Ayres state that 105 deaths occur in that city daily . from the cholera, and that the disease is rapidly spreading~over that whole region of the country. DraMonps have recently been made in Germany by stirring up powdered charcoal and then passing an electric current through it for six months. In this way small crystalized diamonds have been made, but the cost was much greater than the original diamond,J. R.
