SUNDAY, APRIL Ist, 1866.
The Swindle Not, Consummated !
GoveRNOR Low has Been found worthy
ef the trust reposed in him by the people.
‘The monstreus railroad swindle has been
defeated by his veto. We have an Execu-_
tive who is proof against the machinations
of unsérupulous politicians, governing bim.
self by the principles of justice. It is as.we
confidently expected. We could not believe for a moment that the Governor would
~~blast his fair fame, by' an alliance with the
thieves whv' beset the Legislature. We were
not misteken. The Governor has done his
duty, and only his duty.“ In these days of
political turpitude it isa matter of congrat.
alation that we havea Governor who will
deeven that. When we find a conscientious
‘Act performed, let us give the utmost credit:
when it is.proven to us that we have a faith”
ful public officer let us-not be stinted in our
~ “declarations in his favor—we may never see .
his like again. And, therefore, if the people
attempt to build bonfires, however impos
sible in sucha storm as this, let no one atfempt to check their enthusiasm. If cannon:
are fired and windows smashed by the concussion, it is all right.
‘headache, and pay for a few panes of glyss,
than blaspheme and pay an onerous tax for
twenty years. Ifthe people chouse to rush
out into the street and try the strength ef
their lungs with nine cheers, we are ready
to join the crowd and try the strength of our
inflating apparatus also, although we do not
feel that au honest man could do otherwise
than Governor Low has done, and are sure
that be has only done a plain and simple act
of justice which it would have been criminal not to have done. But, when we havea
President cutting up such monkey shines us
Johnson, and a Legislature intent: only on
stealing, we are ready to hoorah for any
good act of any man, if it be only regularity
tu his meals. Hooraw for Governer Low !
THANKSGIVING.—Governur Low has
done the people a favor by vetoing the
Railroad subsidy of’ some two million seven
hundred thouvand dollars. ‘The people are
thankful, but they ask another favor of. his
Excellency. W2ll he be so good as to appoint a duy of Thankegiving? The people
fee] like rendering thanks for having survived
another session of the Legislature. ©
STiLL Hesirares.—A San Francisco
paper saye: Is it not pretty nearly time for
the Bulletin to let ite readers know which
aide it means tu take in the important controversy between the President and Congress? Another veto has coine and that paper has not dared to say one word upon its
merits. Wasever such truckling cowardice seen? The Bulletin stands alone, in a
perfect isolation of pusillanimity. Its conduct meets with universal contempt. Perhaps it thinks that having taken a false step
in the outset of the war by advising that
the seceded States be permitted to go in
peace, it will henceforth preserve a masterly silence on all important national issues’
THe “poor Indian” has as little regard
for the emigrant or the prospector as ever
aud the territorial editors write with a ven.
omous pen in regard to him. We should
rather view him in tlie lightof a friend and
ally, for, m September, 1862, they slaightered, near Boise City, a party of Californians
who were on their way East to join the reb,
els. The Indians saved them thetrouble,
and when they put in their claim for the
usual sonuity they should not fail to add
teat in their bill, and raise the price accordingly.
“GENERAL SUTTER.—The Washington
‘correspondent of the Bulletin, February 22,
says thero\isa rumor afloat that Gen. Sutter whois stillthere, ond who has made a
very favorable impression upon Secretary
Seward, will be appointed Minister to the
Netherlands. Perhaps the ~rumor originated in his application for a Consulship on
Mexican coast for his son.
Senator Cove left for Washington by
the last Steamer, but will not enter upon
the functions of his office till next Congress:

Au enormous amount of freight, it says:
will be shipped over the Chico road this
ummer to Humboldt, Owyhoe, Mentana,
and-other places north. A large quantity
of fréight is already at their latiding awaiting transportation:~ There is a lack of
teams. Fifty ot ahundred could be em.
ployed in freighting to the above-named
plaees at remunerative prices. i
A Heattuy .Ciry.—Marysville, says
the Appeal, is undoubtedly the most healthy
eity in Calitornia. In substantiation of this
sanitary fact, it states that Coroner Hamilton has not taken his hearse from its housing, to attend a funeral in that city, in seven
weeks,
We wish we could say as much.

THE following was the. heading of “Moses”’
Johnson's famous 22d”’ speech as published
in the Chicago Tribune. It says:
“The Nation Disgraced—Andrew Jeiin}son’s Downfall—His Revolutionary Haranernment Usurped by a Direetory—Congress
Declared in Rebellion—Its Leaders Denounced by name>~He Says They Want
His Blood—inffammatory. Appeal to the
Mob—A Painfnl and Humiliating Spectacle.” * . =
A BRoKEN FortTuNE.— Ovid finely compares a broker fortune toa fallen column;
the lower it sinks, the greater weight it is
obliged to sustain. Thus, when a man’s
circumstances are such that he has no occasioo to borrow, hé finds numbers willing
to lend him; but should his wants be such
that he sues for a trifle, it is two to one
whether he may be trusted with the smallest
sum.
WHEN Joseph Bonaparte first came to
this country, he travelled with quite-a number of attendants. On one occasion, stopping at a hotel, he was well entertained, and
was quite profuse in his compliments to
mine host. In the morning, when the landlord made out the bill, he put in every item
he could think of; yet when he added it up,
he did not think that the total waé high
enough for an ex-monarch to pay. So he’
reviewed his bill and added a few more
items. Yet stillitdid not seem enough. So
he added-one more—"To kicking up aq infernal fuss generally, $50,” and that seemed
. to satisfy him. *

A LADY in the market, laying her hand
upon a joint of veal, said, ‘I think this veal
is net quite so white as usual.” Put on your
gloves, madam,” waa the reply, “and you
will think differently.” Not bad fora butcher.
It is needless to say the veal was ordered
home immediately.
THE TIME WHEN Boys Become THIEVES.
Lord Shattesbury recently stated at a pubHtic-meeting in London that, from personal
observation, he had ascertained that of the
adult male criminals of that city, nearly al
had fallen into a course of-crime -between
thé ages of eight and sixteen years: and
that if young man lived an honest life up
to twenty years of age, there were forty»
nine chances in favor and only one against
him as an honorable member of life theres

A Card from the Trustees of the Ne* vada Theatre Company.
In the Nevada Gazette of March 22nd, there appeared under the head of ‘Bewags of Greenbacks,’’
a fabrication of contemptible, dirty lies against the
Trustees of the Nevada Theatre Company, over the
sigvature of Julius Dreyfuss. He savs that he com,
menced a suit against the Theatre Company before
Justice Palmer and that the Trustees paid him in
Greenbacks In reply to the above, Julius Dreyfuss never commenced suit against the Theatre Company-in-Justice Palmer’s or any other Court— nei’
ther did the Theatre Company or its Trustees ever
pay him in Greenbacks—neither do the Theatre
Company owe him anything. f
y THE TRUSTEES,
m2y Of the Nevada Theatre Company.
Through respect for Julius Dreyfussand his Greenback griévance, we will help
him to more fully explain the case. J. Drey fuss
sold a Bill of $1900 against the Theatre Company
to a man by the name of Staley. Now it appears,
Staley, the naughty fellow. has paid the unsuspect
ing Juliusin Greenbacks. Surely, no intelligent citizen would blame us for a mean action committed by
others, THE TRUSTEBS,

Spring Fashions for 1866 .
Stern Winter's frowns have passed away,
And beauteous Spring returns once more
With radiant smiles and colors gay,
Preclaiming Winter’s Fashions e’er,
The sxies seemed bathed in deeper blue,
The soaring clouds inpurer white,
While earth seemed re-created new,
A paradise for man’s delight.
But the kindly garb that Nature wears,
er Resplendent though it be,
Is not half so dazzling to the eye ©
