a MEXICAN named Ramon, was tried by

er Mexican over the head with pistol. The
complainant declared that the defendant shot
at him, and that the ball passed through his
hat, but, as there were three holes in the
sombrero and all of them near together in n
triangular form, it was quite impossible that
ball could have done the damage. 1t is
likely that Ramon mauled the fellow over
the head with his pistol and that the weapon
on went off, irpressing the startled mind OF

TINES HAVE CHANGED.-The San Francisco
National is denouncing Col Hardy, of Fl
Dorado, well known and prominent polti
clan, who acted with the Administration last
year, on account of a hope that he could pre-
vent split in the Democratic party. The
reason ofthis deuunciOtion is that Col. Hardy
has declared that he can stand this Lecomp.
ton party no longer, and that he is determined
to cut loose from them forever lie has stood
them as long as his moral nature will allow.
The force of this denunciation on the part of
the National may be estimated, when we re-
mind our readers that the same paper ex-
travagantly praised Col. Hardy few months
ago, when he was no better man than he is
now. The Mountain Democrat, Dan Gel
wieks' paper also gave him "big lift" al
the same time There are good many more
