Pie esas welaeepa Kee me * a & ” 8th day of Novetaber. 5 be Hevaily Duily Srauscript. TUESDAY ‘MORNING, NOV. 2th. “". PersonAL.—An article appeared in the Nevada Gazette of yesterday morning to which we iotend to reply, although we have not heretofore noticed the repented attacks upon Ourselves contained in that peper.— From the time the Gazette was started in “this town we have extended favore and cours tesies to it in the way of acommodations, aod have never asked of received'any in re« turn, We have avoided discussions with it ~ “owing t6 the general distaste of the public ~“for-newspaper dissentions, although by so doing we have been liable occasionally. to miscoustractton from our silence. fs would not reply to the article in question were it not that our readers at a distance might suppose the statements in yesterday's Gazetle were true if we allowed them to pass When Mr. Waite sold out ot the TransCRIPT his interest ‘was purchased by Brown & Deal, who then became, now are;and ever since -have been, the sole owners of the Transcripr. Mr. Waite bas been fully paid up by ws, ‘and has uot a dollar claim against our office J.H. Boardman does not hold a dollar against our office in indebtedness, or in any other way, and each Saturday night receives his pay in full, as be bas done ever since his employment by us, and as does every person in our employ. cick ; ' . The only occasion when. Judge Caswell ever did any work in our office was under the following circumstances: One of the proprietors was about starting to Marysville. The evéhing before he left for that place a newspaper form was {‘pied” in the office. Judge .Caswell, learning this fact, came to the office and kindly volunteer~ ed hia services ns a printer to gid in restor. ing the “form.” and worked till matters were put to righta, thus snviog tus missing thepublicgtion\of a number of the paper; and when the damage done by the accident ‘had been repaired heeft the office, and before that and since never has done a stroke of work in our office. ’ Every Union nan knows that nothing has been left undone on our part to promote the interests of the Union cause, and at the same tune nothing hag been left undone by a certain class of mento break down the TraNsSCRIPT; and yet ‘'we live” in apite of all.— We aball pursue the same course in the tu‘ture as in the past, and doubt not with equal success. Our paper is not an experiment but an established institution.and we believe it will be as fully sustained, as it bas been, as long ts we are true to, eur convic: tions of Unioniem and to the interests of our city’and county, We mighthave more respect for the criticisms of business men, if there are.any such, who do not like our forbearance to turn our pressman out of an em ployment necessary to keep his family from want, if they did not go by a first class Union livery stable to patronize an active, . leading copperhead, a8 we-.are prepared to show they constantly do. “Let him that is without sin cast the first store.” The “hold Mr. Boardman has upon us, consists in. just thist He isa good workman, whose place canvot be well supplied. He has a wife and three. small children, and “a mortgaged homestead. He and “his family have no nieans.of support except the wages we puy to him. Mr. Boardman is not a Northern doughface, but a Southern man by education, His opiniona.are not worth the talk that has been made about them: but he has oftener voted the Union ticket than against it. In his view, amistaken ove, but not unnatural to. a Southetner, the best ititevesta of the country were to be subserved by the election of McClellan’ as he thought vompromisé would save-the Unien. But he declared, alter election, that Lincoln should have his supportduring his Administration, and he trueted the war would be. vigorously preseaues as the peeple had decided for it. ut the copperhead who is so liberally patrotized by the enemies of the TRAN« SCRIPT, 18 to-day ae fiercely and éffensively opposed to Mr. Lincoln ne ever, ‘The magnanimity of this assault upon one, in connection with the patrunage of the other ean be readily appreciated. We dismiss this subject with the sub» joined affidavit, and with an apology to our readers for what inay seem to many a useless employment of space, © STate or CALirornta, _ County or NeEvava, ; M, 8. Dealand N. P. Brown, being duly eworn, depose and say that the only propries . tera of the Nevada. Transcript are the de‘ponents, That J. H. Boardman has no in. terest therein and has never had any, That the office isnot indebted to the said ‘Board. man, and he hes ho cleitvs of any nature aguinst said office. M.S. DEAL. be N. P. BROWN. Subscribed and peers aor beforeme, this ‘nervous, highly impressible, fidgety people cone oe on ee ape Prorirs ov Biockape RuwnxixG;— The Liverpool Courier publighes some stax . tistics in reference to tha ptofits of blockade running. A single trip, it shows by a copy of a bena fide account, costs $80,265. Of this amonnt, five thousand dollars went to the Captain-for one month's service, three ‘thousand dollars for pilotage oat and in, and other sums equally large to officers, engiteers, and others, all of whom, in view of the risks incurred, were paid the most liberal wages, even the coalheavérs receiving two hundred -dollarsa month.. Against this heavy: expenditure, the fullowing is given.on the credit side a8 the earnings: ~_ Me: 800 bales of cotton fur Government, $40,000 800 bales of cotton for owners... 40,000 } Return freights for Government.. -. 40,000 Return freights for owners... .. 40.000 fo PPP errr ersrrrsrrrr gy) Fi Total... Wee score deecce cons cons 172,000 Thus, in case of a sucerssful trip, the -operators mike a monthly profit of. $94,735, It is to be remetibered, however, that very often the vessels engaged: inthis business are captured at their first venture, entailing a heavy loss.” Several foreign houses‘have been almost if not entirely ruined by their wishaps in this business. BETWEEN THE BLANKeTS.—Some people take their cares ahdtroubles to. bed with them. Itis a bad plan, for.they are diaboheal bed tellows. Even if “tired Nature’s sweet restorer” whips the spirit off to dreamland in the midét of its repiniogs and furebodings, there iano comfort for itthere. Of the last sad, wakiog thoughts are born visible imps that baunt us in~tha realms of Morpheus, which we fight with horror all night long. Happy are those whocan put off théir day troubles with their daily elothing, and, a8 they assume the horizontal, fore get all the annoyances that belong to perpindicular life. We have known people who. could do all this—indiviguals who, atter struggling from mworni.g till _night in Sloughs of Despund and getting miserably beinauled by the Giant Despair, no svoner slipped be«tween the slivets than the Angel ot Sleep, who seems tu have been iying in wait there to bless them, touk them on her wings and bore them to Elysium. ‘To fight over again in bed the battles of life, as many do in their slumbers, 18 a miserable business. Still nore unpleasant is it to be surrendered in sleep to all sorts of impossible phantoms, which are none the ‘lesa disagreeable than they are utterly absurd. Worst of all it is to lie through the weary watches of the night self-turmented. The best thing that can do upon going to bed, 1s to tuke a teas spoonful of that wiraculous preparation known as “Watt's Nervous Antidote, and tir & few mocents all-the troubles of the day will be forgotten, and sleep—qiiet and refreshing sleep. without which no mortal can live fur any considerable space of time—will close the portals of thought and waft the spirit temporarily to réalns of btes. ‘Fhe writer of this article bas tried the experi« ment and kuows whereof he speaks. 7 PROMPTNESS.—We findthe following evidence of the promptness with which losera’ by fire are paid by the “Phoenix Insurance Company” in the Stockton Inde~ pendent. Many ‘persons who were insured in the Company, in this city can corrobrate the testimony given in tids letter : D. A. Meader, Esq.—Agent Phoenix Ins surance Co., at Stockton. *Dear Sir: The prompt payment, in United States gold coin, by you, as Agent of the Phoenix Insurance Company of Hartford, for amount of my loss on hay, should, I think, be made public, more especially as the matter was closed up and paid without any hesitation or quibble, or awy charge whatever being made for making out proof of loss. I can safely recommend the Phoemix or Hartford asdeing all that a first clas Insurenee, Company should be— prompt, honorable and liberal. J. ©. GAGE, Stockton, November 14, 1364, ‘ H.

Mrs Isaac ELLIs, Marysville. Ihave had my Florence Sewing Machine for three years. I purchased one of the first made at the manufactory, and brought it to this State with me. {f have used it almost steadily, and have never had the first thiag get out of order. Mrs. NEWTON Dawon, Dress Maker and Tailoress, Seventh st, betweea Bryant & Brannan, S.

The Florence is the only Machine that has come under my notiee that ‘gives perfect and entire satisfaction on all kinds of work. No one can estimate its vatae until they have used and tested it, as Ihave done. Indeed for thin work it is invaiuable. GEORGE GILLIS, Carson city, N. T, 1 believe I can fully and conscientiously indorse each qualification claimed for the Florence Machine. 1 have thoroughly tested it en work ofall grades and each trial has been eminent] satisfactory. It takes hold of delicate fabric delicately, and of a strong one with strength. To me, it seems more than a.Machime—an ‘almost freee ge! willing helper. Its use is easily learued, and its construction is certainly simple. I\know something of the other. first-class Machines, having learned to'operate several. This isthe only Sewing Machine I have found reliable. ° Mrs Perry G. TRFFT, San Andreas, Calaveras county. In 1858 we purchased a Wheeler & Wilson Machine and used it until last fall, when, wishing one with ‘‘modern improvements,” we purchased a ‘Florence,’ after a careful examination o the different Machines in use. Having used the Florence Machine over five months, we can cheerfully recommend it as being, in our opinion, the best we have seen. ‘A.M. Purst,C L: Furr. ’ San Juan, Monterey county.
