COMING HOME FoKCIBLY.--It is an infa-
nous fact that the Legislature passed an act,
and it was signed by the Governor, for the
compulsory inspection of salt meats in San
Francisco. The law has gone into full effect
and the consequences begin to be seen.
Every barrel of pork that comes to the
mines in accordance with the resolution
passed by the Chamber of Commerce Of San
Francisco, has marked upon its head the
price of inspection which is added to the
value of the barrel of pork, and has to be
paid by the consumer The San Francisco
merchant formerly warranted the pork sold
to interior merchants to be sound, and if
found not to be so, the loss fell upon the
dealer in San Francisco. Under the present
law the miners take their own risk after the
pork is inspected and pay for having the
risk. Formerly if the pork was not good it
was thrown back upon the country merchant
who in turn shifted the loss upon the whole
sale dealer below The people are thus
made in the end to pay for the folly of their
representatives in the Legislature.
We predict the repeal of the law next
winter. The object of it was not to secure
the people against imposition in the sale Of
damaged meats for they incurred no risk be-
fore, but to provide place for some hungry
cormorant, who prefers an office to honest
employment Neuada journal

Origin of Slavery.

The question of slavery being one of the
principal topics of discussion at this time,
we wish to ask the readers attention TO the
facts illustrating its origin. During the
Middle Ages the Venetians were in the habit
of purchasing white men, most of whom
were Christians, from the Government that
had enslaved them, and selling them to the
Scaracens in Spain and Sicily. The Anglo
Saxon nobility of England sold their SER
wants, or those who were born on their man
ors and were subject to the Lord Of the
Manor, to foreigners for slaves. Negroes
were imported into Europe, and sold as
slaves by the Portuguese, in l442. Spain
soon thereafter gagged in the same traffic.
After the discovery Of America, thousands
OF the Indians Of Hispaniola, and the ada
cent Islands and continent of North Ameri-
ca, were sent to Europe and sold as slaves.
Most Of the Indians Of the West India Is
lands were doomed to slavery. The practice
of enslaving Indians continued for two cen
turies.
N gro slavery was first introduced into
America by the Spaniards, and confirmed
there by the English. 1t was sanctioned by
a royal edict of King Ferdinand in 1915
TIE slave traffic or involuntary servitude
system, as applied to negroes, between Afr-
ca and the Spanish possessions in America,
commenced in 1881. The first Englishman
who engaged in the negro slave trade was
Sir John Hawkins, in 1862. In 1857 it
was sanctioned and protected by Queen Eli
zabeth, who personally shared in its profits.
In 1923 the Dutch commenced selling slaves
in Virginia. In 1864 James Smith and
Thomas Keyser of Boston commenced the
traffic; and at later period the principal
dealers in African slaves were New England
ers; Massachusetts for many years owned
both negro and Indian slaves. No citizens
OF the Southern States engaged in the slave
traffic with Africa. From this brief state
ment we learn who first introduced slavery
into our country, and who are responsible
for it. Denunciations of the South for be-
ING shareholders come with an i'll grace from
the descendants Of slave holding and slave
introducing New Englanders.

The Greatest Duel on Record.
An old Mississippian furnishes the follow

An old Mississippian furnishes the follow
ing to the Woodville (Miss.) Republican,
The famous duel, in which forty or more
gentlemen were engaged, in 1928, is still re-
membered in Natchez. Col. Jim Bowie, the
famous fighter and inventor of the knife
which bears his name, used to spend great
deal of his time in Natchez. He was chal-
lenged by gentleman of Alexandria, La.
whose friends to the number of twenty or
moro, accompanied him to Natchez to see
fair play, knowing Bowie was a desperate
man and had his own friends about him.
All parties went upon the field. The CON-
batants took their places in the centre, sep.
arated from their friends in the rear far
enough not to endanger them with their
balls. Behold the battle array thus: Twen-
ty armed Louisianians fifty yards behind
their champion and his seconds and surge
ons, and opposite them, as far behind Bowie
and his seconds and surgeon, twenty armed
Mssssippians. Behold the heights of Nat
chez thronged with spectators, and a steam
er in the river rounded to, its decks black
with passengers, watching with a deep inte-
rest the scene. The plan of fight was to ex-
change shots twice with pistols, and to close
Will kHNes, DoWlo DeIHS dIIlleu WIFI HIS
own terrible weapon. At the first fire both
parties escaped. At the second the Louis
ianan was to quick and took advantage Of
Bowie, who waited the word At this Bow
les second cried foul play!' and shot the
Lousianian dead The second of the latter
instantly killed the slayer of his principal.
Bowie drove his knife into this man. The
surgeons now crossed blades, while, with
loud battle cries, came on the two parties of
friends, the light of battle in their eyes. In
u moment the whole number were engaged
in fealess conflict. Dirks, pistols, and knives
were used with fatal effect, until one party
drove the other from the field. | do not
know how many were killed and wounded
in all, but it was dreadful slaughter.
Bowie fought like lion, but fell covered
with wounds For months he fingered at
the Mansion House before he fully recov-
cred.

The Bronze Door to the Capitol.

A letter from Rome, Italy, says:
Rogers is engaged here upon bronze
door for the Capitol at Washington, which
is to cost $4,000. The first scene repre-.
sents Columbus before the Council of Sala-
manra, unfolding his great theory. In the
second, he is just setting out to seek royal
aid. In the third he is before the King and
Queen, laboring to convince them. Isabella
leans forward and scenes interested, but
Ferdinand scarcely designs to heed the Wis
onary enthusiast. In the fourth he is con-
fidi 9 his son to the care of the monks,
while his ships wait. In the fifth he is land
ING in great state upon ST. Salvador. The
sixth he is at Hispanolia where one of the
sailors is bringing an Indian girl to the
ship on his shoulder The next is the grand
nav gators triumphal entry into Barcelona
on his return. In the succeeding one he is
about to he sent home from Cuba in chains
and disgrace.-The "last scene of all" is
death. The priests have administered the
sacrament to him; one holds cructiX for
him to kiss; friends and attendants are weep
ing around and the spirit of the dying man
is about to start on that last great voyage
from which none return.-ln inches sur
rounding these scenes are figures and busts
of various royal personages cotemporary
with Columbus, including Ferdinand and Is
abela &c, &c.
