Che: Dail ea eer ; NEVADA were CAL. ‘April 15, 1875 Thursday, nen aR STENTS ARIE eTOCs NSE un estan Still Writhing, ~ The San Francisco Bulletin: is still. ‘gnashing its4angless old jaws overthe ovation paid Senator Sargent by the peopte of the metropolis, in op_. position to its wishes. Itis ashamed—if the managers of the concern -are capable of shame-~ of its posi__1_tion,-and the legitimate results of its . ~—teaching._The Senator had the mu-. nicipal officers of the city, the military and’citizens generajly to do him lionor; while the Bulletin was honored by. seeing its heartfelt wishes eartied out bya few reffians from the Barbara Coast, who stoned and “severely wounded” the.chief officer of . thecity, while quietly seated—in_a carriage, because, forsooth,. he was carrying out the wishes of the Board ‘of Supervisors, the municipal authority of the place, who had unani-mously passed resolutions to_ unite with the: military in doing -honor to ‘Senator Sargent. ‘Every paper in San Francisco and Oakland, except . the Bulletm and Examiner, and a majority of the. other papers of the _coast, united in saying that the demonstration was # grand ovation. Yet ‘the Bulletin, in trying to exeuse its infamous position, and to free itself Grass Valley, “We took a jittle sttoll down to Grass*Valley on Tuesday, and found . things about as usual thereabouts. We rode down with omrpfriend Sigourney,and that gives us an opportu. nity to say that it is a pleasant thing to ride aftera good team, and delightful to go after the bighest-head. ed and most’ stylish one in the mountains. We found the Eureka mine in full operation, notwithstanding its present prospects are not very: flattering. A visit to the office of the Eureka mine has liar attractions, and. we th enjoyed it. The Idaho atk is a continuation-of the same , ledge as the-Eureka, is but a few hundred yards distant andis, we believe, turning ont_its accustomed amount of bullion. We saw a-brick at ¥indley’s Bank, from the tast clean up,: which weighs. about ten thousand dollars, However, we did not make any inquiries about these mines, and can mike noreliable statements. The business of the place does not seem to bean improvement on our own, yet Pedro flourishes. The mining interest seems to ‘be generally prosperous, The new mines -are looking well. We saw some rock from the Omaha and it shows gold aud heavy: sulphurets enough to make the owners believe it is the best-mine-in-the district: The New York Hill-still’sends out rich rock. We believe: a crushing of over two hundred tons was being eleaned up pecu-_ re, al [Conimunicated. J _ Creeds and Churches. D, Transcript: I am very sine time to sée your articles on religion as they appear from time to . time in your paper. Not that I endorse your sentiments or am pleased with the position you take; but Iam glad that you take a stand at all on this subject; that you have religious sentiments and frankly express them. For though at present yoa seem to differ considerably from the great body of christian believers, I think fair way to become a christian. that you are, to-say the-teast, in at: Packages Forwatded Eight Miles . fie Two Seconds, On Sunday” ‘February 28th, the pneumatic mail system. was, opened for public ase in the city of Vi jenna, and for a few days of its working it appears to have been eminently satisfactory. By this method letters. and packages —not exceeding two ounces in weight-can be sent from: Jone end of the city to another—a distance of about eight miles—in something less than two seconds, so . that, adding to this the time neees. sary for making up. packages, assorting them and delivering them, the whole is just.about_one—heur,-BatChristianity, with all Ber scars and4 lives of its adherents, has only to be candidly and studiously looked ‘into in-order. tobe admired. if;--however, any one should imagine that he knows all that he needs to know on the subject, before he has given: }it a careful study, he will at last find himself much mistaken. ‘And now, since it is the cause of truth that we have to deal with, and have yo other purpose to serve, [ will ask a small . space for exchange. of sentiments. You say of Christ that his example is all the creed necessary to govern men in their intercourse with their fellows.” “Do you think, then; that a proper behavior of each man toward his follow is all christianity requires, or even the most. vital_principle of its teachings? “Give to] Cwsar the things that are.

In fact, between stations only :two or three miles distant from, each other such packages ate even now delivered within twenty minttes. afier being deposited. Any Postmaster or Postmaster-General, who could: inaugurate such a form in thé local mail arrangement of the metropolis, tight achieve immortal fame. .

For a consideraand to— that are from the curses of the community, for . influencing and prebably hiring des ~peradoes to carry out its purpose, 4s pleased to:continue~ its .misrepresentations asfollows: ‘Lhe Nevada Transcarpt is trying ‘to make it appear that Senator Sar‘gent had a great ovation in San Fran‘cisco on Wednesday evening last. It imagines there was 4n outpouring on the part of the people Whom he has done his utmost to injure. There: was no demonstration in the sense in which the Transcripr puts it. Three regiments of soldiers, with ‘sonte cavalry and artilley, turned out to receive Mr. Sargent, because they were ordered to do 50, and would “have been heavily fined had, th + lisobeyed.But the ranks of vegiments were not full, ‘tees preferring to stay a ese . , yesterday, and the prospects are good of‘its paying as well as former lots. the mine will clear up the debts of the estate of its late owner and leave a nice balance for his widow.

Mining on the Ridge, We recéived a call from V. G, Bell, sia "superintendent « of the Milton ‘Min. ‘ing and Water Company, yesterday, and learn from him that the mining interests of that section are prospering, although there'is goingto be a ‘scarcity of water early in the season, Provided warm rains do not come ‘and melt:the snow off in the vicinity ‘of the reservoirs all at once, the Milton Company will not have to draw from theirs until sometime in ‘July. If so, itis expected by using ‘smaller heads late in the season their water will last until nearly October. At is probable that it will be the same with the other water companies there, As-ttjAre has been good ' weather for piping dufing the Wintor months, itis thought there will ‘be an average yield of gold for the ‘season, ‘District Court-—-March, Term. .

But the point I have chiefly to deal with here is that you set forth Ohrist’s rei substitate for a christian efeed. To this I object, unless . >with His example you ‘include His teaching; and even then I shall still ". object to ity “Christ’s example is not, in all things, ®& model for mortals to follow. Isit for all men to be homeless wanderers withort where to lay their heads? Should all men renounce the idea of an earthly home or. a family? Should men often spend whole nights. in prayer to God? Should all become martyrs to truth and right? Would you have. this to be part of the rying packages aud the other for pushing them ahead in the other direction. At the seven, principal stations, in various parts of the city, similar engines are kept at work day and night, dr wing the air from’ the pipes, and creating a vacuum in ‘front of the packages, which are thus more rapidly pressed forward by the expansive force of the compressed air behind them. The six sub-stations aré connected not only with the two central office, but also with each other by this dovble--system of pipes, The dispatch of each package is announced by telegraph . . to the office to w&ich itis sent, and . to all intervening offices to advise . hand a.aupply of curls, switches, ete Christian creed?

She is also sole agent for this section of country, for the celebrated Butterick’s patterns . _—-— + ‘Tur, Owyheee Avalanche asserts that the girls of Silver City, Idaho, were compelled, during the cold nights of the past Winter, to take jugs of hot water to bed with them, to keep from freezing; and, irfelevantly, adds that_the young men. of, that place ought to be ashamed of themselves, ‘The young ladies who indulge. ia this practice probably think that hot water is the next thing to matrimony; most -people find themselves in hot-water as soon as they get married. The Avalanche tells of two young damsels who . adopted this substitute for something more agreeable, and kicked . the cork out of the jug, deluging the . ! bed with hot water. How-the Avalanche man got hold of the item is: not explained, and will probably remain a mystery, but it is surmised that he aqueezed it out of one of the girls. InriGation.—The Monterey Herald of the 3d instant-says: ‘‘In seme portions of the county the want of rain is severely felt, and if it does not come soon not much of a crep need be expected on the low lands.’’ This conveys a different impression from that conveyed by the San Francisco paper, to the effect that the late rains have been sufficient to make crops certain all along the coast. Farming anywhere south of the bay of San Francisco is an uncertain business without irrigation, ‘We are so persuaded of. its benefits that we would never again care to own or conduct a farm where it could . not be applied. Tur Lonarsr Samia Tease The rate at which emigrants and others are pouring in upon the: Pacific slope, is unprecedented, and it. seems, indeed, as if the East were going on a grand picnic to the West. ‘Tourists and iavalid travelers crowd ‘the trains, and if the present rate of tcuvel keeps-up the Central Paeific peaple ‘will be “orcell to ran two. train which:passed ‘Reno this:morning was composed of ‘twenty-four: . cars, in two sections, the'largestipas-: seuger train which ‘has passed over hthe road since-it was-completed, trains a day. The western -bownd , define our statements in the light of Christ’s teachings. But if we do this, heré comes in the -creed. We should bear in mind thatthe Great Teacher did not seek to make men Christs, but christians. He didnot come te make men perfect at once, as God is perfect, or as He himself was perfect, but to. teach what to do 80 as to become perfect at last, and: lead others in the same path. There is a very important difference here, and if all could see it, there would be less fault found with ebristianity as it appears in the lives of christian people, and more charity: in the judgment pronounced upon them, and withal.a greater demand, for a christen creed to give a brief and vation,as taught by the Great Teacher. Let me cite you to one more instance where even now you and I thing called a creed. ‘Of Christ you say that ‘the went among the poor and depraved, and by good acts sought to make them happier.” That is true, but as I wish to follew his example, I want to know in what way did he seek to muke them happier? Richer? healthier? freer? more highly honored among their rulers? or did he, above all things, endeavor to teach them what to do so as to be happy forever: in the. world to come? Here again the example needs a statement of no other nature than that of acreed. And if the christian church claimed to be
composed of perfect people, instead of such as do seek after perfection, the world might demand a uniform and perfect creed, and have no discord among all the members. As things now stand that we do not claim to be made perfect, as Christ was perfect, but are taught to seek perfection in the way prescribed by him, we believe there is nothing better than earnesly to _seek—ia—all-}things to know and. do his will, and as we believe, so to teach. yy yet we have enly touched this great subject, but even that is better than to giveitno heed, May I hope, ere long, to hear the Transcarr proclaiming the truths of Salvation with a tcumpet that shall utter no uncertain sound. . .

Phe-pipes are, : ter, with a perfectly wihdoth polished . . inner surface, and the packages “are made up in india rubber eylinders of various lengths, The postage on mail matter must be prepaid at the rate, of two kreutzéers (one cent) for ‘half ounce or fraction, which ri eal »much cheaper than . the two cent postage for thé city letters in this country. This is the first inabout 900,000 inhabitants~ giving its people. such facilities ofcorrespondence at moderate cost. Tur Baker City Herald advocates 48 division of the State of Oregon on the natural line of the Cascade Mountains, and the union of the eastern section of that State with portions ef Idaho and Washington Territories. The reasons given are that the interests of the twa Oregon are. diametrically . opposite, one being mineral and the other agricultural, while in point of climate, too; there is a great diversity, and from otber causes laws suited to one section are not applicable to the other. . Tux Virginia. Enterprise of last Tuesday has the following: ‘‘A flock of immigrants arrived here by yesterday morning’ 8°train. Such of . these people as do not come here on to them some permanent occupation —will be very sick of the sight of Mount Davidson and the upper deck of the big-bomanza before they get remunerative employment. There ‘are already here five or six thousand more laboring men than are needed,” ' The San Panclan Chronicle says: The agricultural sharps say that only the late sown grain has been . injuriously affeeted by the north winds, “age yield of grain per acre. As the increase of acreage under wheat the present seasen is nearly thirty per cent. over last year, there is good reeson for believing that: Abe ghain crop will come up to the most sanguine calculations heretofore made.
