B2 writer in the Levenworth Times re-
lates the following anecdote of Mr.. Greeley =
When the party had mounted their animals in
front of the camp of DR.. Casio, the President oi
the mining district, for the purpose of treadine
the back track, Horace found it. however more
easy to bestrde his long-eared charger than to
induce him to move onward The whip and
spur proved unequal TO the task. Every forci-
BILE expedient being exhausted, the rider finally
resorted to moral persuasionn Mellow words
OF kindness and encouragement flowed from bis
lips, but they avaled nothing. The obsfinacy
OF the animal finally seemed to excite the ad-
monitor, and in a half praying, notwithstanding
tone, he exclaimed, Now, mule, Fof Gods sake
don't be mule This vigorous appeal was
promptly responded to. The mule moved

HARD TO KILL.-The New Orleans Be, n
leading opposition journal, does not credit the
idea that the Democratic party is nigh unto dis
solution. 1t says:
=" 10 Kill that party is about a tough Job as
ever was undertaken. Armstrong guns, Greek
fire, and all the devilish enginery of war are
harmless when applied to it. People have been
procamng it dead whenever it suffered TEN.
porary reverse yet, ac if purposely to disprove
and faisify these shallow predictions, Democracy
has invariably raised its head as high as ever,
ana displayed the same stalwart proportions and
ihuomltaoie energies as in days of yore. We
have seen the patty threatened with the most
fatal ruptnres in National Conventions as, for
instance, in 1874, and yet emerge from seeming
iy hopeless difficulties, and achieve brilliant
victories

SINGULAR ACCIDENT TO THE OVERLAND MAIL

ALLEGED INDIAN DEPREDATroSs.-We have
just learned, says the Red Bluff Beacon of Aug.
10, that the Vermont Mills was burned to the
ground last Sunday afternoon or night A few
days before, two men (whose names we could
not learn started on horseback up the road to
the same place. A short time afterwards one of
the horses came back, without rider, with
several arrows in him The greatest excitement
and alarm prevails throughout the the valley in
the neighborhood of the mountains for fear the
Indians will make one terrible foray, and de-
stroy men, women and children, and burn the
houses ranches and grain.

A LEADING PAPER 1t is a iavorite assumption
OF certain editors that they are the conductors of
leading papers. This term, "leadng," implies
position in advance of, and the ability to mould
and direct public opinion. 1t signifies going
before. When any great question agitates the
pubic mind, 1t is expected that leading" pa
pers will promptly take position upon one side
or the other-for or against-and thus lead'
public opinion. When one of these sol disont
leaders, however, lags behind. and waits to see
how the opinion of the majority of the public
tends, before it expresses its sentiments, it rem
ders ridiculous its pretensons of "leading."-
What sort of a leader would the commander be
who would follow in the wake Of his troops in
a charge upon the enemy? He would be the
subject of the SCOTS and jeers of the spectators.
So with those editors who, while claiming to be
conductors of leading journals, are always lit
tie in the rear of public opinion.

A REFORM PARTY.-Four years since the Dem
ocratic nominees for county offices in Sskiyou
were pretty generally beaten by the know Moth
ings. The great argument at that time against
the Democracy was that the county Offices had
been in the hands of the Democracy for the
three or four previous years, and that in conse-
quence the debt of the county, in that short
time, had reached the enormous amount of
$4,000! Two years after the same parties
raised the same cry of Democratic Extrava-
gance," and Opposition Reform" and again
won. AT this time they have the unhlushing i'm
pudence to attempt repetition of the fraudu-
lent cry. If the people of Siskiyou can again
be fooled by them. they deserve to have their
county debt quadrnpled in one year. These re-
marks are suggested by the following startling
statement which we find in the Yreka Union:
Four years ago the debt of this county was
only $4,000; To-day it is over 81 aa ono payable
in ten years, with interest at the rate of.lO per
cent. per annum, making total debt of S27o,-

is philosophy, teaching by examples" This was
a famous saying by Lord Bolingbroke, but La

proper credit therefor. Just like hin.-S. F.
NeWS.
Yes, and we remember that many of the op-
position papers, at the time of the publication
of that speech of Mr.. Latham, quoted that re-
mark with derision, said it was hyfalutin, non

n8- Reader think on this subject !:

Remember, life is but shadow,
Its date the intermediate breath we draw;
Ten thousand accidents in ambush lie
To crush the frail and tickle tenement,
Which, like the hour-glass. measuring time.
Is often broke ere bslfi.s sands are run.
