At a preliminary meeting held this day

A GEORGIAN IN THE WEST.
From Omaha to Salt Lake.
[Special Correspondence of the Morning NewsJ
Salt Labe Cm, July 1. 1874.
I could easily fill a page of the Morning
News with an account of our trip from
the Missouri to the Great Salt Lake, and
about this city of the Latter-Day Saints.
The subjects furnished in the latter,
however, are sufficient for another letter.
Leaving Omaha, the eastern terminus
of the Trans-Continental lane of Rail
ways, which connects the Atlantic and
Pacific coast, we enter into the great
prairie country, to which the lands in
Missouri, Iowa aud Illinois are nothing.
For two hundred miles from Omaha, the
country is one broad field, extending as
far as the eye can reach, broken only by
the small trees and bushes which mark
the courses of the little streams that
here and there drain some distant high
land- The prairies are well cultivated for
about fifty miles west, and then on for
the remainder of the distance settlements
dot the line of the railway.
A journey of a day and night took us
almost out of the settled portion of the
country, though the stations, which were
about ten miles apart, compare more than
favorably, for life and activity, with those
along our roads in Eastern and South
ern Georgia. We took breakfast at
Sidney, Neb., 414 miles from Omaha, and
4,022 feet above the level of the sea. We
passed Prairie Dog City—so named from
the number of those little animals, whose
hilly homes cover the ground for acres
around. Along our route we could see
numbers of antelopes, though, with the
advent of the railroad, they, as well as
the buffaloes, are fast disappearing from
the plains. Of the latter we saw only
He was tame, and was purchased
The Nemesis of Negro Suffrage.
It will not surprise any intelligent stu
dent of politics and history if the Repub
lican party shall soon become as “sick
and tired” of its negro allies as its leaders
once were swift and eager to enlist these
“wards of the nation” in its ranks. It is
the price of such an alliance as that
which now exists between the Republican
managers and the herd of ignorant voters
whom they have to conciliate, that per
petual and perpetualiy increasing conces
sions must be made in the same down
ward direction to the disgust and humili
ation of all reasonable men. It 1b true
that there was a time when the dominant
majority in Congress seemed ready to
compass land and sea in order to make
sure of its negro proselytes. It was with
this view that, at the close of the late
civil war. the insurgent States were re
constructed on the theory that “the
most ignorant must govern if they
are the most numerous.” It was with
this view that Thaddeus Stevens, the ac
knowledged Republican leader of his day,
shouted “To hell with the Constitution!”
when the Democrats in Congress inter
posed that once honored instrument as a
barrier to the revolutionary assumptions
which marked the history of the recon
struction epoch. It was to consolidate
the negro votes that “Union Leagues’
were organized in all the Southern States,
with their catch-words and passes so de
vised as to move this mass of ignorance
at the will of the base and venal crew
who have manipulated it in their own
sordid interests. It was to propitiate ne
gro votes that Ku-Klux and enforcement
bills have disgraced the statute book of
the United States, and their execution has
led to dragoonades, subornation of per
jury, and the exaltation of the military
over the civil power. And, finally, it was
to conciliate the negro voters of the South
that the so-called “Civil Rights bill” was
passed by the Republican majority of the
Senate daring the late session of Con
gress and sent to the Republican majority
in the more popular branch for its con
currence.

A Damaging Drouth in Ohio.—A
Cincinnati dispatch says: The dry weather
that has prevailed in Eastern and South
eastern Ohio for soveral weeks is resulting
in considerable injury to the farming in
terest. The pastures are brown and
bare, and ponds and streams ore almost
dried up. Along the railroad fires pre
vail. A good deal of damage has been;
done along the Pan-Handle Road by fire
consuming wheat in the shock and fences.
The great extent of damage is between;
Steubenville and Columbus. Com is'
pretty badly curled, but of good color,
and if rain comes soon will make a crop. :
Old residents fail to recall any season
when the heat was so severe and prolonged
so early in the season. They greatly fear
that unless relief comes in the way of
rain soon, the com crop will fail and
cattle be driven to starvation for want of
grass.
Wheat fields east and west of Chilli-
cothe were on fire last night, ignited by
locomotives. The woods in various parts
of the country are on fire, and great
damage is threatened.
The latest specimen of Scotch metap
hysics has been reported on the Sabbath
question. On Sunday morning a party
of Falsely weavers, whose wives were
“down the water” for the season, were
anxious to get across from Gourock to
Dunoon. Deeming it a profanation,
however, to engage an oared boat for the
piirpose, they employed a friend to
negotiate with the captain of the Rothsaw
steamer “to cast out a bit o’his tow and
take them wi’him as he was gaun that
way at ony rate.” “But what’s the
moral difference, pray,” asked the
negotiator, “between being rowed over
with oars and towed by a steamer?”
Difference: “There’s hantle difference
between rowing by the power o’man,
wha maun answers for what he does,
and twa water-wheels pn’ing us; in ither
words, gin ye wad hae us to be mair
particular, a stem engine’s no’ a moral
being, it’s no, accountable agent!”
An Ex-Congressman in Prison.—Geo.
W. Smith, ex-member of Congress from
Mississippi, arrived at the Albany (New

fine and two years imprisonment for em-
bezzlement.

An important town on the road is Chey
enne, in Wyoming Territory. This place
has a population of 3,000, and has con
siderable trade, being the junction of the
railroad to Denver, Colorado. Eighteen
miles boyond is Sherman, the highest
point on the line of the road, being eight
thousand two hundred and fifty-two feet
above the level of the sea, though the
ascent has been so gradual that it appear
ed almost impossible that we should have
reached such an altitude. The guide
book informed us that though Sherman
was so high it was remarkable for its mild
temperature, the thermometer ranging
eighty-two during the summer. Our
party did not find the temperature very
mild; in fact, the thermometer marked
sixty, and heavy overcoats would not
havo been uncomfortable. The clerk of
the weather was undoubtedly trying to
make up an average. At this place the
railroad company has a repair shop.
We now go on the “down grade,"’ and
about forty miles beyond Sherman, we
arrive at Laramie, the first place in
America where a female jury was empan
neled, and also noted for its “vigilantees,’
who one night ornamented tho telegraph
posts in the vicinity with the bodies of a
number of gamblers and desperadoes who
infosted the town. This class of people
has antirely disappeared. They have ac
tually been annihilated. The native will
point out to you, as you go along, de
serted settlements, and noted for their
desperadoes, and when you ask what has
become of this class which was once a
terror to all honest men, he will tell that
the “vigilantees” killed many, and the
others “died with their boots on,” shot
to death in gambling rows and bar-room
fights. With the completion of the rail
road, those few who survived scattered,
seeking other fields, where, though there
was less excitement, there was, at the
same time, less danger. They will never
assemble again until another great iron
belt is projected across this vast conti
nent, gathering together the laborers,
whose money is so hardly earned and
easily lost.
About here we see the first sno w-sheds,
not erected as many suppose under the
ledge of a hill or at the foot of a
tain to protect the road bed from an
avalanche, but in an open, rolling (coun
try, far from the snow-capped moun
tains, which can only be seen in the dis
tance, to keep from the track the heavy
snow drifts which roll like the storm-
lashed waves of the ocean across the
open country. From this point on, snow
sheds and snow fences are to be seen,
sometimes for mile3 and then not again
for ten miles. In the distance on both
sides can be seen the snow-tipped moun
tains glistening; in the sun, seemingly an
impassable barrier to our further journey
West. But we still pass on through the
valley, which is almost on top of the
mountains, and the brakes are more
needed than steam on our downward
journey.
Our second morning on the road brings
us into the old Mormon country, though
now a part of Wyoming Territory. At
Green River Station is the site of the old
Mormon ferry. Across the trackless
prairies and along this mountain the
Latter-Day Saints journeyed in search of
a quiet resting place far away from their
enemies. Their roads to-day are the
common highway, and their engineering
skill is acknowledged by the fact that to
day the great trans-continental railroad
runs side by side with the Mormon road
marked oat by Brigham Young and his
one hundred and forty-three followers,
who, in 1847, crossed the Missouri in
quest of a new home. At Green river
we saw offered for sale moss agates, which
are plentiful in the vicinity.
We journey on, through Echo Canon
and Weber Canon, along the banks of the
Weber river, winding around the Wah-
satch mountains, which form the eastern
boundary of Salt Lake. The sceneiy is
grand; the eye never wearies of looking
at the grandner of the mountains and
rivers. I cannot draw a pen picture of
that which cannot be painted. Here we
are fairly in the dominions . of President
Young, and the neatness of the farms,
the thorough cultivation and the cosy
looking cottages, tell the tedejA industry,
if not of happiness. Passing on we arrive
at Ogden, a Mormon town, the jnnetion
of the Union Pacific and Central Pacific
Railroads, and the terminus of the Utah
Central Railroad. Here passengers bound
for Salt Lake City change cars, and after
a ride of two and a half hoars are at the
great city of the new revelation. The
railroad over which we travel was built,
and is owned and controlled entirely by
the Latter-Day Saints, from brakesman
to President; they must all believe in the
new Prophet, Smith. To tell about
Salt Lake will take another letter, which
I shall write as soon as I look around.
J. HE.
Heretofore the Republicans, in playing;
the part of wet-nurses to their politics.
foster-children,- have found it sufficiently
irksome, perhaps, but not very difficult,
to please these simple ones with rattles
and tickle them with straws. It is notice
able, however, that the rattle with which
they were presented when the ballot was
put in their hands has not only ceased in
a measure to charm the political sense of
these very unpromising neophytes, but
has been turned into a boomerang by their
clumsy attempts to play with it, and the
last straw with which it was recently
sought to tickle the ears of the colored
groundlings has been broken in the mid
dle because those who were toying with it
are shrewd enough to see that it threatens
to “break the camel’s back.” And hence
it was that “the Civil Rights bill,” which
was sent from the Senate to the House of
Representatives under the noisy heralding
of Morton and Frelinghuysen, has been
suffered by the Republicans of the latter
to “lie in cold obstruction and to rot” on
the Speaker's table. It was with no less
truth than pungency that a Democrat of
the House, as he pointed to the corpse on
that table, could say to the Republican
mourners as they stood around it with
poorly simulated grief on their faces,
“Gentlemen, the bill is dead, and you are
glad of it.” They were glad of it, for
they had been accessory to its death be
fore and after the fact.
And this refusal to pass “the Civil
Rights bill” is not the only mark of Re
publican impatience at the heavy loads
which “the party” has been compelled to
bear in the service of its vassals. It
begins to be generally felt among the
more discerning minds of the Radical
party at the North that their negro allies
at the South are fast becoming a source
of weakness rather than of strength. The
continued allegiance of these allies can
be purchased only by fresh concessions
to the ignorance, the misrule, and the
rapacity which have desolated South Car
olina, Louisiana and ArkansAs But the
ignorance, misrule and rapacity to which
these States and others at the South have
been surrendered in the interest of the
Republican party are at last beginning to
excite confusion and revolt in its ranks at
the North. A leading Republican orator,
speaking from the platform of Yale Col
lege, has not scrupled to denounce the
theories to which Southern society has
been sacrificed, as “crude, ill-considered,
and impossible of success.” He justly
complains that the “politicians” of his
parly, insensible to the claims of a
wise statesmanship, have taken the un-
buried corpse of slavery and “chained it
to the foot of the republic,” where it now
not only emits a hideous stench, but
breeds disease throughout the whole land.
It is not the crudity and not the want of
consideration betrayed by these theories
which have provoked the remonstrances
of Judge Pierpont and drawn a few reluc
tant complaints from even the New York
Times, but it is tbe fact that in practice
these theories have been found “impossi
ble of success,” by reason of the fearfnl
recoil with which they are attended. Ne
gro suffrage was sweet enough in the Re
publican mouth, bnt it is bitter, alas! in
the Republican belly. It was some con
solation that the party should have been
saved from defeat at the last Presidential
election by the aid of the negro vote, bnt
that success has already been turned into
a Cadmean victory by the camp-followers,
who, like Moses, Kellogg and Durel], are
not content with plundering the enemy,
but are now pillaging their own camp and
setting fire to their own tents. It is ovi
dent that the Nnmidian cavalry are as
dangerous allies in modem politics as
they were found to be in ancient warfare.
The first blow at negro suffrage has just
been struck by the same hands which
oreated it in the interest of the Republi
can party. We refer 'to the destruction
of oil suffrage whatsoever in the District
of Columbia—a field in which Radicalism
has been left perfectly free to bear fruit
after its kind, and in which it has so
rapidly run to seed that nothing was left
for the Republicans of Congress except
to pluck up by its roots the noxious weed
of their own right-hand planting- It was
in the District of Columbia that negro
suffrage had its first illustration as part
and parcel of the new dispensation.
Early in the war Senator Sherman .pro
claimed that the District would become
‘the paradise of negroes” in the United
States; and to this paradise they have
been allured in such large numbers by
the “rattles” of Congress and by the free
handed bounty of Boss Shepherd, that
the negro population of Washington in
creased 200 per cent, during the decade
from 1860 to 1870. It was in Washington
that at their first election the vegro voters
took possession of the polls at three
o’clock on the morning of election day,
and crowded the white man from the
ballot-box. It is in the negro vote of the
District that the corrupt “Washington
ring” has found its only support at home,
if we except President Grant; and now
that the abominations of this ring have
come to be too intolerable to be endured
any longer, nothing has remained for the
Republican party in Congress except to
stifle negro suffrage in the mire of its own
corruption. The same party which was
so swift to endow the negro with the bal
lot has been equally swift to strip him of
the franchise and to bury the franchise of
the white man in the same grave which
covers from sight the “corpse” that was
chained to the foot of the Republic under
the very shadow of the National Capitol.
It was entirely fitting that the members
of the late District Legislature, composed
os it was of negroes in part, and presided
over by a brother of Boss Shepherd,
should have signalized its dissolution by
running off with everything portable about
the Legislative chamber, from desks,
chairs and water-coolers down to the
“feather duster,” which one enterprising
Solon contrived to secrete by passing its.
handle down his trouser-leg and tucking
its feather end away under the vest which
covered his patriotic bosom. It was fit
ting, we say, that these things should be
done by this typical body, but it is not
fitting that they should have been receiv
ed by the country with little more than a
loud guffaw at such ineptitude combined
with such alacrity in the art of municipal
thieviDg. There is abundant food for
grave reflection in the tragi-eomedy which

Radicalism has played before the eyes of
the whole American people on the Dis
trict stage at Washington, with the ne
groes for its lay-figures and with Shep
herd and Grant for its principal actors;
but there is nothing more worthy of re
mark in this pitiable spectacle than the
fact that the party which was first to try
the experiment of negro suffrage is also
the first to confess the experiment a
failure by robbing blacks and whites alike
of the elective franchise in the only part
of the country where it baa unlimited
power.
Another Life Insurance Fraud—Ar
rest of a Brigadier General.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati Com
mercial, writing from Muncie, Michigan,
July 1, says:
“The citizens of Muncie are on their
ears this morning. General Daniel K.
Boswell, long mourned as dead and food
for fishes in the muddy Missouri, arrived
here at five o’clock this morning, and now
languishes in jail, with hia deep-scheming
wife to kgep him company. Daniel K.
Boswell, formerly a resident of this place,
aged sixty-three years, a native of Wayne
county, this State, and for many years a
resident of Richmond, Indiana, where his
parents were held in high esteem, turns
up here this morning, a prisoner in the
hands of the law, and now lies in jail on
the charge of attempting to defraud the
Franklin Life Insnrace Company, of In
dianapolis, out of the sum of $10,000,
and the Travelers’ Accident Insurance
Company, of Hartford, Connecticut, of
the sum of $5,000, being the amount of
policies issued on the life of this man,
who for three years has been considered
dead, while now that he turns up alive
m^iy can be found who claim that they
never thought him to be dead.
“The modus operandi in this scheme of
defrauding the insurance companies,
while not deep or well played, came near
being successful Boswell and his wife,
who had for some four years been resi
dents of this place, made a visit to Kan
sas, and during this trip Boswell fell over
board and was drowned in the Missouri
river. This in the year 1871. The widow
appeared on the scene in deep distress,
and with much weeping called upon the
insurance companies to “comedown with
the dust.” The Travelers’, of Hartford,
compromised the claim and paid the
widow $2,000. The Franklin Life, of
Indianapolis, disputed the claim, and re
fused to pay, claiming that Daniel was
not dead. A lawsuit followed—the weep
ing widow and the pleadings of the at
torneys “fetched” the jury, and a verdict
for the full amount of the claim, $10,000,
was rendered for the widow.
“A second trial was secured. The in
surance company fully believing that they
were being imposed upon, commenced
operations looking to the discovery of the
man who claimed to be dead, and putting
detectives on the track, traced their man
from St. Louis to Tennessee, into Missis
sippi; and finally found him at Galesburg,
III., where he was living as General Isaac
Stewart Howe. Ex-Sheriff Swaine, of
Muncie. was sent out to Galesburg to take
a look at the General, and, at the request
of the company, went out m disguise,
aud found that Howe was Boswell.
Throwing off his disguise, Swaine faced
his man and saluted him as Boswell.
The General did not see it, and
conld not be made to believe that
his name was Boswell. Swaine not
having authority to arrest his man, tele
graphed to Muncie to have Mrs. Boswell
arrested, and for a requisition on the Gov
ernor of Illinois for a warrant for the ar
rest of the General. Bnt the bird flew,
and a long chase followed, and after
many twistings and turnings the arrest
was finally made at Little Traverse,
Michigan, and the prisoner arrived here
this morning, and at 5 o’clock in the
morning husband and wife met' in the
jaiL The meeting is reported to have
been quite affecting, as Mrs. General Bos
well threw herself upon the stalwart form
of our hero, and welcomed him back
from his watery grave. It appears that
the General and his wife have been in
correspondence all the time, as letters of
recent date from eaeh have been found
in their possession. The prisoner was a
Federal General during the late war.”
The Augean Stables—How Secretary
Bristow is Cleaning Them Out.
Before taking his departure for Ken
tucky to-day Secretary Bristow gave di
rections to Chief Clerk Avery to clean out
the Treasury stables, about which so
much has been written. Up to the time
of the exposure of the Williams’ landaulet
affair nearly every government official was
either riding in a vehicle purchased with
government money or boarding his team
at the expense of the National Treasury,
and using government employes for drivers
and footmen. At one period last winter
the large stable on Fourteenth street,
owned.by the Treasury Department, was
found too small to accommodate the
teams belonging to Treasury officials, and
it was found necessary to lease the ad
joining premises for the accommodation of
the stock. Every head of a division, or
as they liked to be called, Chief of Bu
reau, had his carriage and pair boarded
at the government’s expense, and driven
by a government messenger disguised in
livery. When the story about Williams
came out, some of the more timid of
these bureau chiefs removed their teams
from the Treasury stables, but the cheeky
ones failed to take the hint, and continued
to steal up to date.
Secretary Bristow is every day discov
ering and stopping up leaks through
which Uncle Sam’s stamps have been dis
appearing for years, unbeknown or en
couraged by preceding Secretaries. When
he entered upon the duties of his office,
Mr. Bristow found that one bureau chief
was absent traveling in Europe, his salary
ling on at the rate of five thousand
illara per annum, while, at the same
time, he was receiving for some sort of
business assigned him by Richardson an
extra compensation of twenty-five dollars
a day in gold and mileage. - The new
Secretary’s second official act (his first
being to examine Mullett on the subject
of architecture) was to cut off this Euro
pean tourist’s remuneration and order
him home.—Cincinnati Commercial, July
3d.
Pistols Without Coffee—Two Sport
ing Men Exchanging Shots.—In Hot
Springs, on Saturday last, shots were ex
changed between Billy Davis, a sporting
man, formerly residing in Little Rock,
and Bill Forrest, a gambler and brother
of Gen. Forrest. Davis had been drink
ing, and, as Forrest thought, was griev
ously abusing a pet dog. He remon
strated with him, and Davis became angry
and told Forrest if he wanted a fight he
could have it at any time. Forrest de
clined fighting then or at any other time,
and said he did not want a difficulty, but
merely objected to the abuse of the dog.
He then left Davis and went up the val
ley.
A short time afterward the two men
again met, and Davis told Forrest he must
fight “That being the cose,” said For
rest “get off ten paces, and Ill give yon
all you want” Davis at once measured
off the distance, and the two men drew
their weapons. Davis’was a “self-cocker,”
and in drawing it was accidentally dis
charged, the bullet taking effect in his
right leg. Disregarding this wound, he
fired at his opponent, the bullet passing
near his head, bnt inflicting no injury
Forrest returned the compliment and in
flicted a bad wound in Davis’ left shoul
der. Davis again fired, bat with no bet
ter result than his first attempt. Forrest
fired once more, * wounding Davis in the
right aim aT*fl preventing him from firing
further. Before assistance could reach
him Davis fell, bleeding from three dan
gerous wounds. At last accounts the
sufferer was alive, but it was thought he
was mortally wounded. It is reported
that Forrest watched over Davis Satur
day night, and that he did not desire to
kill him, os he could have done so, it be
ing known that he is a dead shot Forrest
is under arrest.—Little Rock Gazette, 2d.
[Marysville (Cal.) Appeal, Jane *60
A Terrible Tragedy.
It* appears that an old man named
Shiriey and Henry Price are neighbors,
and that the latter has a daughter named
Eunice, about seventeen years of age,
whom Shirley wished to marry. The
old man continued to press his suit, end
to gain favor had in some way become
the creditor of the family in the sum of
$44. Shirley’s affections were not recip
rocated by the daughter Eunice, and the
old m*m 1 it seems, resolved upon des
perate means to bring bis courtship to an
end. He therefore, on Monday last,
armed himself with a revolver and two or
three knives and went to the bouse of
Mr. Price, and demanded the payment of
the sum of money due him—about $44.
Approaching the daughter, Eunice, Shir
ley said he wanted the money due him or
her. Eunice informed Shiriey that they
could not pay bim the money, as they
had none, but that he conld take a flock
of turkeys which she had raised.
This reply being unsatisfactory and
a rejection of his •. suit, Shirley
drew his revolver, leveled it at the
girl’s head, and ^ pulled the trigger.
Fortunately the chamber failed to revolve
far enough and the hammer did not ex
plode the cap. The father and a negro
boy who was present immediately inter
fered to prevent the assassination, and a
sharp tussle ensued between the three,
during which Price received a cut on one
of his hands from a knife which he seized
by the blade. Finally the two overpow
ered and disarmed Shirley, and upon a
promise that he would remain quiet he
was released and allowed to get up off the
floor. But as he raised up Shirley drew
another knife, which was concealed on
his person, and thrust it in the right ride
of Mr. Price, inflicting a mortal wound.
Her father being slain Eunice slipped out
of the back door with the determination
of saving her life if possible by flight to
the house of William Moore, distant
about one mile. In the meantime a
younger sister, seeing the necessity of
help and needing assistance for the care
of her father, jumped upon Shirley’s
horse, which was standing by the door,
and rode off to the residence of Richard
Flood and a Mrs. Norris, about a mile
distant in another direction from which
Eunice had started. Shirley soon discov
ered the route Eunice had taken and
started off in pursuit of her. Seeing that
she was a long ways ahead of him he re
turned to the house to get his horse.
Finding it gone he mounted a mule,
but the animal bucked him off, and he
was obliged to resume the pursuit on
foot, the frightened Eunice all this time
fleeing toward the residence ol" William
Moore with all her physical strength.
Shirley, no doubt, wished to overtake her
in the field and there assassinate or force
a pledge of marriage from her. Fortu
nately for Miss Price she reached within
hearing distance of Mr. Moore before the
desperate and bloodthirsty villain over
took her. He, however, stopped her
within about forty yards of the house,
when she cried out,addressing Mr. Moore,
“Don’t let him kill me.” Mr. Moore
seemed to lose no time in comprehending
the situation, and immediately came out
of the house with his shot-gun. But
Shirley and the trembling Eunice were
partially entwined together, and Mr.
Moore dared not shoot the old gray-headed
monster for fear ho would shoot the girl.
At this time the parties presented a thrill
ing and tragic tableau. Shirley was sup
porting the fainting and frightened Eu
nice by the left arm, while in his right
hand he held a large and shining knife,
with the point aimed at her heart!
Mr. Moore advanced on Shirley and
dealt him a heavy blow over his head, but
it did not knock him down. The gun,
however, was discharged by the concus
sion, the contents passing over the head
of Shirley. Then commenced another
struggle between the two men for the
possession of the gun, as Shirley seized it
as the blow was struck. The parties
fought for some time most desperately,
during which Shirley tried to stab Mr.
Moore, but he escaped with a long cut in
his pantaloons near the right thigh. The
struggle continued till Moore picked np a
rock and gave Shirley a heavy blow upon
the head, which ended the contest. Moore
then tied the hands of his helpless an
tagonist and led him at the end of the
rope to Bangor. Dr. Vance, of Oroville,
was called to examine the wound of Mr.
Price, and pronounced it necessarily
mortal. Price was a widower, his wife
dying about a year ago. Though poor,
the family is respectable, and the two
daughters much esteemed by their neigh
bors. Shirley is an old man, aged about
sixty years, aud is the possessor of some
property. We understand that he has
heretofore borne the reputation of a
peaceable and quiet citizen.

Justice is sometimes swift in Oregon,
even when administered according to
law. A brawling fellow named Gibbons
fired a pistol at a woman in Portland.
An officer interfered, and Gibbons killed
the officer. The next day, Monday, an
inquest was held, and on Tuesday Gibbons
was committed for IriaL On Wednesday
he was indicted, on Thursday he was
arraigned, on Friday he wasjfound guilty,
and on Saturday he was sentenced to be
hanged. It is almost needless to add
that he hadn’t any money.
Prof. Ewald, the accomplished Hebrew
scholar, has been sentencid to imprison
ment for three months because he wrote
an article in which Prince Bismarck was
compared to Frederick H. and Napoleon
HI.—with the former in “his unrighteous
war with Austria and his ruination of
religion and morality,” and with the latter
in “picking out the best time possible for
robbery and plunder.” Prof. Ewald has
always been a strenuous opponent of the
unification of Germany.
