STEALING ISDIAN CHILDREN.-Several parties
have been recently examined before the Re-
corder's Court in Sacramento on charges of
stealing and selling young Indians. The State
Journal learns from Col Henley Superintendent
of Indian Affairs, that there is band of about
twenty Mexicans who traverse the coast range
from the vicinity of Bodega to Shasta and who
follow no other occupation than that OF stealing
Indian children, for the purpose of selling them
and that In a number of instances they have not
scrupled TO take the lives of the parents, when
it became necessary in securing the children
These MeAicans travel through different parts
of the mountains on horseback and when they
find the squaws and children away from the
men gathering the seeds and roots on which
they in part subsst, they ride down upon them
and catch the children with the riata, as they
would calf These children are then brought
to Sacramento, San Francisco and 10 the farm
ers throughout the country, where a tale is
told of their being orphans, or some other plau-
sible story and they are sold at prices varying
from one to two hundred dollars. Col Hem
ley has made application to General Wool for
troops to put stop to these outrages Oh the In
dians.

Interesting TO Property Holders.

Judge McCorkle at the August term of the
Ninth Judicial District Court, III on action pray
ing for perpetual Injunction and damages, en-
ployed the-following language Ill his charge to
the jury, which, If sound law, will no doubt be
gratifying To the owners of building lots and
gardens The Court charged the Jury that 1t
not matter Of any Importance In this ac-
ton, whether the land embraced III the lot and
premises described III the complaint was or
was not mineral land was not land that
belonged to the United States this State, as It
could not be defence to the injury and tres
pass committed by the defendants. That if the
jury found from the pleading and the evidence.
that plaintiff was and bad been in possession
and use of the lot enclosed and improved before
the location and possession of defendants mi
ming claim, that plaintiff beiug first in posses
sion is first III right, and such is entitled TO
verdict, aud the defendants are responsible to
him in damages. That by law of Congress
the owners and holders of lots in mining towns,
for the purpose of habitation and cultivation,
are protected in the use and occupation of the
same, until the mineral lands of this State are
disposed of by Congress, and any law of this
State conflicting with the same was void and
imperative. They were further instructed thai
if they found for the plaintiff, and it should ap-
pear from the evidence that defendants COM
mitted the tresspass and injury through fraud or
gross negligence or oppression. or after they
had been duly notified and forbidden by plain
tiff. they were not restricted in assessing the
damages to the actual damage to the property
and premises. but that they might assess great
er amount than such actual damages, by way Of
what is called exemplary damages.
Under this charge the jury found for the plain
tiff, and the defendants were restrained and en-
joined from doing further damage, or in any
way molesting plaintiffs premises.
The lot in dispute was in size IS by 80 feet,
on Bdwell's Bar and having buildings upon it
occupied as habitation and portion of the
ground for gardening purposes.-Empire Argus
