AMADoR CouNrY.-The Amador Ledger of

AMADoR CoUNrY.-The Amador Ledger of
Saturday has the following spicy items
B. Goodrich, Esq, threatens to bring
an action against the Ledger, laying his dam
ages at $4,000. lie says that hisreputaton
has suffered that much by being charged
with having written such speeches as the
breckenridge candidates in this county are
making. Mr.. Goodrich, as the head and
front of the Amador Breckinridgers, is trying
to play one Of his shrewd lodges upon ms.
lie don't mean to sue not a bit of it. He
only makes the threat to try and have the
people believe that he didn't write the
speeches, and thereby save the credit Of the
aforesaid candidates. Very sharp, sir, very
sharp but the dodge won't win, though.
1t is rumored that Lieut. Wishart, second
officer of the Breckinridge "bushwhaekers
in this county, has yielded the contest. We
have not heard of him for week. Should
their Generalissimo, Goodrich, also give up
the battle, what pouId become of them?
The boys at Smith & Martins saw mill visit
the Democratic meetings, OoUeLAs, OF
course,) and bear a transparency with this
motto: "We SAW, but never split" The
saw mill boys are for the whole ticket
We are acquainted with two or three
Postmasters in this county who will shortly
have notice to quit They are Douglas men
and it is about time for the documents to ar
rive.
There was a tremendous BPeckinridgt

The meeting was organized as follows, accor.

ASSAULT UPON AN EDIToR.-The editor of
the Columbia Times was brutally assaulted
by gang ofruffians on Thursday night last,
and in consequence the last number of the
paper was shOrn of half its proportions He
says that on the evening in question, can
apostate Hebrew aided bya gang of ruffians
came to our office, and taking advantage of
our well known objection to the practice of
carrying deadly weapons, brutally assaulted
us, and we have no doubt but that they
would have done us some serious injury had
not our neighbors come to the rescue, as one
of the ruffans-who few weeks ago brutal
ly kicked and abused man for no other
reason than that he worked in the Times
oflice-humanely recommended the other to
kick our brains out, as we lay on the ground,
unable to defend ourself. with the Hebrew
sitting on our stomach and pounding away at
our poor devoted head but when we did get
on our feet, in place Of the ringleader facing
us like man, as we dared him to do, he,
coward like, run away leaving us his hat as
a trophy. Some may ask in wonder why we
did not have the whole gang who assaulted
us, arrested? The truth is, they belong to a
set, against whom the law is powerless, and
few of the better disposed of our citizens
choosing to brave their i'll will, well know
ing the relentless persecution and i'll usage
that would be certain to follow. Witness
the malicious destruction Of the bitches in
this locality"

"UNpEn Tn1A1."-The Pacific Annual Com

"UNDER TRIAL. The Pacific Annual Con-
ference of the Methodist Episcopal Church
South, held their second day. session at Sac
ramento on the 18th October. After other
business, the Conference proceeded to the
examination of persons "under trial" when
number we're passed. The name of B. W.
Taylor being called, remarks the Sacramento
News, the question was propounded, as
there anything against him ?" The Presiding
Elder answered Eyes" and that first he left
Coulterville without the consent of the Elder !;
second, that he left his work to collect mo-
ney for scool without consent; and third,
that he butchered on the Sabbath. SO far as
the case of Taylor was concerned, the "work'
was laid on the table. Next day, Taylor's
case was taken up and discontinued.

A BIsHoP on ANNEXATION. "A correspon-
dent writing to the Alta from Victoria, says
"The Bishop of Columbia has written to
England certain letters which have been,
deservedlv, severely handled here. They
bear The marks of great verdaney upon them,
and, no doubt, are only first impressions,
without proper inquiry of authorization
For instance, at the last election, he makes
out that an American party wished for an
nexation to the United States. Now, the
annexation spoken of that time, was annexa-
tion to British Columbia. and not by Ameri-
cans, (they did not interfere in the election,

SENIOR PIoo's GREAT RRoE-The San Jose
Telegraph of Saturday says: "Senor J. A.
Pico's great race against time bids fair to be
an interesting affair." He has thirty horses
now on the track in course of training, and
his experiments have been sufficient to con-
vince number Of his countrymen that he
will win, and they will, with their usual
recklessness, bet large sums on his success
If only courage and skill, and careful train
ing were requisite, Pico would win sure; but
$50 miles in six hours and half is not to be
accomplished by care or skill alone it re-
quires speed and endurance on the part o.
horses and rider almost unparalleled. We
regret to learn that Mr.. Pico met with an
accident on Thursday morning. He is train
ing his horses to start off at high speed as
soon as mounted; and, this morning. finding
it necessary to check an animal he had got
on to, he did so, causing the horse to rear
and fall over backward, injuring Mr. Pico in
the left side, and bruising one of his arms
He will probably recover in few days"

The Pony ExPREss.-The st. Louis cores
pondent of the Union writing October 9th,
says:
have had a conversation with Mr.. Samuel
one cf the firm of Samuel & Allen, agents of
the Pony Express in this city. Mr.. Samuel
is also one of the stockholders in the Express
Company. He arrived this morning on the
8 o'clock train from New York, where he has
been in communication with Mr.. Russell and
other leading members of the Company. He
assures me that there is not only no idea OF
stopping the Pony Express at present, but
that such a step has never been contemplated
or even talked about. So far from discon
tinuing it, all parties are highly encouraged,
as the Express is once more becoming pay
ing institution.
The correspondent adds that there is moth.
ing in the report that Pony Express is to be
started shortly on the Southern route.

A Lone SERMoN.-A cotemporary, speak
ing of the old meeting house-a very elegant
one, by the way-lately burnt at Saco, says:
" The church was erected during the minis
try of the Rev. Elihu Whitcomb, and the
dedication sermon preached by him Febru-
ary 18th, 1906 1t was 90 feet in length by
81 in breadth" DC Uncle Toby remarked,
as he read this, that he had heard and seen
some long sermons, but didn't remember any
one SO long as ninety feet; and that the
breadth was quite uncommon-long sermons
usually being slim or slender.

Mn. Pryor INrERRurrED.- Richmond
Virginia, correspondent of the Petersburg
Express tells the following incident which
occurred while Mr. Pryor was enlighteninr
the Breckinridgers in that city on late
occasion:
During the delivery of his denunciations
of Judge Douglas course considerable sensa-
ton was created by voice from the crowd
crying out, "Haye you not indorsed Judge
Douglas within the last two or three vears?"
Mr.. Pryor said, mo, sir' The voceE"Y ou
have, sir, and can prove it on YOU" Mr..
Pryor-"Come TO the stand" Great confu-
sion.J young man apparently about nine
teen years Of age, Of slender build, rushed
through the crowd and leaped upon the
stand, taking position 10y the side of Mr..
Pryor. The most unprecedented confusion
followed several voices crying aloud, Put
him out" "Push him off the stage" etc
While Others said, Hear him." 'Give him
chance etc. Finally, the President j. a.
Belvin, rose, and after quiet was restored,
said that it was in violation of the rules and
out of order for any gentleman TO speak, un-
less invited by the oiiicrrs of the Association.
voice-"Why didn't you think of that
when o. Jennings Wise interrupted General
Foote few nights ago in this very house
MIR Pryor here interrupted and said that it
was his fault; he had invited the gentleman to
the stand,not knowing the rules Of the Asso-
citation The young man who interrupted
him then left the stand and resumed his seat.
His name is Joseph Fink. He is said to be
very intelligent, and was once an employe of
Pryors at the time that gentleman conducted
the South newspaper
