CAUSE OF THE DUEL.
From The San Francisco Hcral

From the San Francisco Herald sept. ~
The steamer of the to-day will bear to
the East the intelligence of the death OF
the Hon. David G. Broderick, late Sena-
tor of the United States, from a wound
received in duel-hs antagonist being
the Hon. David S. Terry, Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court of California. No
affair of tile kind ever took place in this
State that was so gross y misrepresented.
A studied attempt Las been madeto mis-
lead the public mind in regard to all its
circumstances, and we have little doubt
that by to-day's mail the ISLANDERS so mon
strously circulated among the people OF
California, will with equal industry be dis
seminated throughout the Atlantic States.
OF this wilful perverson of facts we must
acquit the immediate friends of the de-
ceased Senator. For the most part,
their sorrow at his loss has not made
them unjust. The cutlery comes from
the Black Republicans, by whom the OPP
portunity has been seized with ferocious
avidity to make capital for their party
The effort, we are happy to say, has
entirely failed. 1t is well known that
the difficulty between Messrs Terry and
Broderick was wholly disconnected with
the events of the late canvass. Neither
was it identified in any single particular
with the antagonism between Mcssr'
Brodcrick and Gwin. Mr. Terry has
never been a friend of Mr.. Gwin; he has
never had any utilization, personal or pc
litical, with that Senator, and further
more, we have the most positive assur
ance that no friend of Mr. Gwin was il
Mr. Terry's confidence in relation to hi
proposed correspondence with Mr. Bro
derrick. So much for the charge of con
spiracy. The vile accusation of unfair
ness in the fight has already been abund
antlv refuted

Bloody Anarchy i'm Venezuela,
and Conspiracy in uayti.

An appeal for protection by the for
eign citizens and consuls at Venezuela
has been addressed to the Governors OF
the French, British and Danish West
India Islands, in which it is stated that
the contest, now going on in that coun-
try, is not one of ordinary revolution,
having for its object political ends, but
one of plumber, rapine and murdcr-a
war of determination before which al
ready whole communities have disappear
ed, and from which nothing but foreign
intervention would save the country.
These are the fruits of Abolitonism.-
Since the act of 1880 which proclaimed
in Venezuela the freedom of the negro,
and his civil equality with the white man,
the latter has degenerated, and mongre-
ism steadily increased. 1t now rules
the land with bloody sway. The white
citizens are utterly at the mercy of the
brutalized mongcls. According to the
last census the former were only q per
cent. of the total population, while of
negroes, Indians and mongrels there were
73 per cent.
Tn Hayti where the negro has not been
interfered with by the whites, where he
has had it all his own way, he has proved
himself unfit for freedom. Rebellion and
anarchy are permanent there. The last
files from EIayti inform us of a wide
spread conspiracy to assassnate JEFFRARD
and re-establish the Empire. If the dis
tractcd condition of all the Central and
South American States, and the West
India islands, which under the dictation
of Great Britain abolished slavery, at
tempting to elevate by legal enactment
the negro to the level of the white race,
and the decided reaction which has taken
place, of late years, even in England on
the subject, are unable to cure the delu-
sion of abolitionism in this country the
case must be pronounced as utterly hope
less. The London Times, the most po'
tental organ of public opinion in En-
gland, following in its lead nearly every
first class journal in the land, Judging
abolitionsm by its fruits, have for some
years past persistently denounced it as {
whitening curse to both the negroes and
white men in tropical ATTITUDES, denying
that it has any claims to be regarded as {
philanthropic movement. France, high
ly civilized country, with population
as humane and charitable as that of any
other land, has not hesitoted to revive
African slavery in her colonies. 1t i
here only that the strife continues as no
and fierce as ever, and the reason is sim
pie enough. Abolitionism, except to
small number of dcluded philanthropists
is the mere handle of political knave
wherewith to control fools and fanatic
for individual purposes. What say Pan

From the New York Her

FROM the New 4 ork
Senator Broderick and Judge Terry
both owed their positions in the COM
munty rather to their political manage
ment of cauc uses and primary elections
than to any peculiar merit i'll themselves
or fitness for their high Offices. Broder-
icl, whose mother still resides in the
Eighth ward in this city, was native
of New York, and at one time foreman
of Engine Company No. 81. When the
gold discoveries i'll California became
known in the Eastern States, and pro-
duced such an immense emigration to the
Pacific he set out for that region, and
was among the earliest of the adventures
there. From his familiarity with the
science of political manGuvring, he soon
became prominent in public life, and was
in 1857, elected by the Legislature of
California to the Senate of the United
States. In that position he conducted
himself honorably and high-mindedly,
and showed a degree of ability that was
hardly to be expected from his aateced-
cnts. Judge Terry was also early in
public life a native of one of the
Southern States, and left an orphan at an
carly age, he went to Texas and took
part in the struggle for Texan independ-
ence. After his return he devoted HIM
self to the study of the law, was admitted
to the bar, went to California with the
earliest emigration there, and was cleo
ted Justice of the Supreme Court when
he was but thirty three years of age
Like Broderick, he was a man of great
resouteness and determination. While
in the hands of the Vigilance Com
mttee, and while his life was in immi-
nent danger, he was offered a DISCHARGE
if he would consent to resign his position.
His wife urged him to do so, but he re.
fused, and issued an address to the peo-
pie of the State, in which he expressed
his determination that he would not leave
the prison alive in any other position
than as Judge of the Supreme Court
He was reputed to be dead shot, and
there was some surprise felt when the
erroneous news of the duel represented
him as having been wounded by Broder.

The opposition papers Of all grades

are setting up howl over the killing of
Senator Broderick, which is so palpably
insincere and hypocritical that it is dis
gushing even to the more sensible mem

hesitate to make the grossest mistate-

broadcast charges which are as ridiculous
and unreasonable as they are outrageous
and malignant. An exchange well re-
