The above sterling piece of satire
upon 10. McKiDben is found in the last
number of most delectable sheet pub
lished somewhere in the purlieus of
Broad street, and having a sworn-to
circulation to obtain the Post office print
ing-and no other to speak of. The
predatory remarks to the above met with
a guffaw from the respectable members
of the Democratic party and we pass
them by.
We have written something which is
said to be derogatory to the character of
10. McKibben. The facts, land they
are facts) were given as by most re-
spectacle citizen of this place, who,
compared to either Of the eleven hounds
above, is as Hyperion to Satyr"-
Since the telegraphic despatch has been
made public, quite number of men of
high character in this community, have
told us voluntarily that every word we
have published ct ncerning McKibben is
true and they can affirm of their own
knowledge that it is so.
The card of the sweet scented eleven
seems to have been conceived by an en-
envy of Jo. McKibben. rational friend
of his would ever attempt to bolster up
his character with such authority. We
charged McKibben with having been
prone to indulge in his cups, with having
gambled, and with having lived with
prostitute. Eleven men declare these
charges are not true. We received oar
information from men who are not ad-
dicted, nor have been. to the vices al
legged against McKibben, They may
not have been in the habit of visiting the
abodes of vice, and the authority of men
who have may be considered better
On this ground and no other will we al
low the dicta of the denunciating eleven
to outweigh the word of one of our in
formants. If Frank Anderson is that
Frank Anderson we have seen wallow-
ing in the mud in Forest city his word
is first rate that 10. McKibben never
drank. If Louis Bartlett ever dealt faro
in Craycroft's saloon, he knows whether
"Mac" bucked at the tiger OR not, better
than men who have been engaged in
gaining an honest living all their lives.
IfE w. Casey keeps the Empire Sa-
loon, and Chas. Cochran deals out liquid
damnation behind the bar, they know,
of course, whether the late Democratic
candidate for Congress ever got a "snif
ter" there or not. If Riticker is the man
who shot Dutch Sam once upon time,
his evidence in McKibben's favor will
go for all it is worth. If E. J. Smith
had hand in the honorable murder of
Tevis, there were FIVE or six men here
before the late Jail delivery who would
be glad to take his evidence against all
other men in the world. Craycroft is
good evidence on all the allegations
against McKibben, especially the last.
The fo,cer-de-Lucc is the emblem of his
nationality, and swift legs when ropes
are around his safety. If William
Spear is the fellow who had hand in
the woman hanging at Downieville, we
forgive him his triAing sins against us,
and hope God will the larger ones.
We know little about the rest of the
patent-evidence gang, but inasmuch as
they have said 'fhe author of the Short
biography of 10. McKibben, is ma
licious slanderer, and knew when he
wrote it that every statement contained
in it derogatory to the character of Mr..
McKibben was false" we throw them in
with the rest, and pronounce the whole
batch most contemplate set of liars,
and it will take by arithmetical calcu-
lation, one hundred and forty-fo pimps
to vouch for their truth and veracity.
ARREsTED.-Twob brothers named Far
ley, were arrested on Monday at brick
yard on Gold Flat, on suspicion of being
connected with thegang of thieves going
about this county The brothers
are known to have kept Webster's mare
at the time of his first escape, and to
have delivered the animal to Lee Schell
supposed accomplice of Webster soon
after. Schell was found with Webster
when the latter. retaken.
We understand that the Farleys are,
at liberty nothing definite being found
