political jackass who was aft cted with
the cocoethes-scrt6endi, they might have
been elected, and the result might have
been as disgracelul as the present Kill

But both of these defeated persons were
wiling to stand before the people upon

they bound their party with oaths to sup

oaths were not sufficient to keep their

Cinnamon Robbed,

A Chinese camp immediately below
Bidweh, was plundered on Tuesday eve
ming last, by four persons, suppo~ed to
be sSpaniards Two of the Chinamen
were badly but not dangerously cut.
The rascals succeeded in getting some
thing like two hundred dollars Il is
deliberate opinion that, would our Off
GERS enforce the anti-gaming law, there
would not be 50 many Spaniards around
to rob Cinnamon
Two hombres undertook 10 rob some
Cinnamon at Ophir, on Monday night
last, when one Of them received IA shot
through the arm above the elbow, which
brought him to realizing sense of bis
situation. They were secured, and are
now in Jail awaiting trial
The four hombfes mentioned in the
first paragraph, attacked a Chinese
camp at Stringtown ON Thursday night,
and robbed them Of between two and
three hundred dollars. They were pur-
sued for some distance, and fred upon
their pursuers. They are said TO be two
Spaniards and two Kanakas.

SenateTial.

A large portion of the Kye Eye press
are thought to be in favor of electing tive
United States Senators at the approach
ine s-ssisn of the legislature. 1t is anu
sing to witness how gi' gerly portion
Of their organs now handle the question,
which they denounced as an outrage up
On the people at the session of '54. 1t
is different now What wAs sin for
democratic legislature to perform, is an
act ofholiness performed by Kye Eyes.
Their disposition to elect two u. States
Senators, is an admission from the party
of its own weakness, and shows that
they are afraid Of the ''sober second
thought" Of the people. 1t is an ad-
mission that they see the handwriting
On the wal, which announces their early
dissolution, and knowing their own rot
tenness and corruption, they seek to
erasp all within their reach, before an
outraged people can remedy their f'lse
strp. From our exchanges We learn
'hat lie Nevada Journal openly advo-
Gates the election of two U. S Senators
at the approaching session.

before Justice Stafford, on Tuesday last,
on charge Of an assault with intent to
kill He waived an examination and
was committed for trial The occur
renee took place near Kanaka Peak, the
particulars of which we have not learned.
The latest reports from the wound d
man are decidedly unfayorable to bis
recovery. Hoaglnnd's bail was fixed at

condition of the wounded man, was, by
many, considered low, and Judge Lynch
was spoken of pretty freely.
Latest accounts from the wound

Halo, Mr. Record, are YOU Know

tell YOU how it happened. One evening
IN Old cAummio Of mine, arked ne to
take walk to town. The place being
ab ut 'hrce miles distant. Ny old
chum left me soon afto: we arrived
IN town, and saw no more of him for
two hours, when he came around, gave
HE a wink and started. [ followed, and
after we had got out Of sight and hearing
of others, he venlured in low whisper
to ask my name, age and birthplace l
informed him, when he again left me to
my own destruction. I royed about the
streets for some time, when | met again.
lie was then in conversation with an old
i}loat, who looked as if he had not been
in hissobcr mind for the past FIVE years,
or ever Lad his cask emptied of its con,
tent (whisky) for one year, even to gel
1t hooped. Ny chum stepped up to me
and gave me a punch in the ribs with
his walking stick and started, which was
as much as saying come on Know-Noth-
ing. Of we started and went out Of
hearing, the old Bloat followed) lie
asked me if | would like to join the K
N-'s3 | told HIM 1 would. He then
led the way into small back room of
store. In this room were two men OF
my acquaintance, who belonged to a
hye Eye concern in another portion of
the country. They asked for admittauc.
o. B. | know no other name for him,
and do not intend to make his acquaint-
ance, told thsm they could go int
should cost them nothing. My initiation
fee was to be 81. lie said there was
no speculation in it; it costa great sum
to get the room and furnish it, with
books, &C., and to light it, Upon such
conditions VIC all made up our minds to
go in, and started off. O. B. (wLisky
keg) led the way, over wood piles, logs,
old lumber, &c, to house with lad
der reared to one Of the upper windows
We ascended the ladder, which led into
a small hall, the inside partition beng
blankets Here appeared to be the place
where the money was to be paid He told
the boys they had to pay S before they
could go any farther. (Before going up
he told them it should cost them moth
ing). He talked Tor some time upon
the principles of the cause, sc, still
saying 81 to them, until they would
hear no more Of it and left. l was ask
cd if | wanted to join them and | said
l did not 1 thought l had their princi-
pies full, and lift.
The costly furniture was as follows :;
for the windows were old blankets, that
looked as if the native Californians had
thrown them away, or been robbed of
them. The partition was of the same
material and made close joints, lacking
space of about two feet The seats, ta>
