The LONE MOUNTAIN TRAGEDY The ex-
animation of the parties charged with the
murder of the three persons near Lone
Mountain, on the 23d ofOctoLer last was be-
gan in the Police Court yesterday afternoon.
Mr. Johnston, the husband of the murdered
woman, and William David Johnston, her
son. were called as witnesses. Their testi-
mony was the same, substantially, as that
given by them upon the Coroners inquest,
and did not tend to implieate the accused. 1t
IS quite unnecessary to repeat it here.
Upon the case being called this morning
Mr.. Brosnan, for the defense, stated thot t6e
defendants had many friends, who EXPRESSED
much dissatisfaction that they were not per
mitted to visit them in the prison. Judr.
Cowles said that he saw no objection to their
admission, upon compliance with the rules Of
the prison, yet it would be necessary to con
suit the Chief of Police in regard to the mat
ter. The examination was then resumed.
1he boy William was recalled and ques-
toned further in regard to tho conduct of
Marion at the time he received information
Of the murder. George w. Stevens. DR. Nc.
Nulty, and James Welch were next examin.
ed, but their testimony did net tend TO impH-
cate the accused or to throw any light upon
the subject. No new facts had Gaen elected

true reason is the compromise Of 1880, and
the admission in particular Of California into
the Union Ever since 1850, there has. been
on the legislative record Of South Carolina a
solemn declaration that "the passage Of the
Compromise Acts of 1850 constitute good
and sufficient cause for dissolution of the
Union" She has also had standing law,
by which she is pledged to secede whenever
one or more other States shall join her.

AMERICAN ARTsToCBACY.-Th Newspapers
state that of the two ladies who opened the
respective balls of New York and Boston
with the Prince Of Wales, Mrs. Governor
Morgan was in early life, miliner, and
Mrs. Governor Banks, a factory grl-Er-
change
All right. The Prince Of Wales is himself
descended on one side, in the remote past,
from brewers daughter, or something Of
that sort The vicistudes Of life and fortune
may make aristocrats or common people,
using the terms in their common sguifcation,
"aristocrats" being those who have either
wealth or position and the "common people
being those who have not. III aristocrats
without exception, have sprung from what
is SO complacently called "a common" origin
and many of them have returned to the po-
sition occupied by their ancestors 1t all
proves that aristocratic birth is nothing, he
reditary station nothing, since it is but the
caprice of fortune at best Men are entitled
to credit for honorable exertion in becoming
wealthy or famous, and that is all. Very
many hard working men in the various de-
partments ofhuman eXertion never become
wealthy, and many men of lofty intellect do
not become famous. Circumstances have 4
great deal to do with it,
Aristocracy is a poor thing to Jrag of, un-
less indeed it be that kind of aristocracy
which God himself recognizes, the aristocra-
cy of intellect.
How poor a thing aristocratic station is,
when you come to look at it both in lis rico
and fall The remote ancestors of all the
barons and MOBILES in the world were but the
tenants Of huts and novels, wherein they
fought pitched battles with vermin, and
many Of them were but plodders in the com
monest trades and avocations. The titled
arstocracy Of the past where is much oft
now? Sir Bernard Burke tells US, in his
curious history of "the yicissitudos of fami-
lies" that in 1857 the great-great grandson
Of Margaret Phntagenet, the daughter of
George, Duke of Clarence, was following the
cobbling business in the town of fshropshire
This was the blood of kings
The descendants of the sixth son of Ed
ward l., King of England, were lately a
butcher and keeper of a toll gate.
In 1861, John Earl, of ofTargnier, a Scottish
peer, was actually begging il the streets Of
Edinburgh.
A descendant of Lord Lindsay, and repre-.
sentative Of the Earldom, did good service in
l771 as hostler in an inn at Kitkwall, in the
Orkney Islands
a descendant of the Oneills, Kings Of Ire
land, who occupied The throne for COO years,
was engaged at the time Burke wrote, in
keeping dairy.
Hundreds of such instances might be nam
ed, showing what aristocracy amounts to
after all its blaze and pretension.
The fact is that one man is as good as
another, if he behaves himself, and that is
about the sum total of the whole matter
Cultivated intellect and refined character
are the great distinction at last and should
be honored in whatsoever sphere they may
be found.

EprToR DEMOCRAT AS a notice Of the
sudden and distressing death Mr., J. Nichols

day the 18th inst has already appeared IN
the various papers in this section, in comph-
once with my duty I will only add, that the
day following, hisremains were taken to his

Monday the nth, at 3 o'clock p. NJ, follow
ed bv his heart-stricken widow and iatherless
boy, were deposited in the garden few rods
from the house, beneath fig tree planted by
his own hands.
Appropriate religious services were per-
formed at the grave by the Rev, Mr. Bullock
Of the Methodist Episcopal church, of which
he was member. Although the weather
was extremely forLidding, very large num-
ber of truly sympathizing friends and neigh
bors were present to weep with those who
wept. On returning from the grave, meet
ing was organized by calling Mr.. c. L. n.
Vaughn to the chair and the following reso-
lutions were heartily adopted 10y the fearful
audience who listened to their reading:
WHEREAS, 1t has pleased Almighty God to
call Jeremiah Nichols from Earth to Heaven,
leaving wife and son to mourn his untime-
ly death, therefore
RcsiIrod, That we having known him long
aud well, do testify that he was a devoted
husband. an alfectionate father, warm
friend, a worthy and energetic citizen, a gen
erous neighbor, an honest man, and good
christian. We deeply regret his death and
most heartily sympathizc with his family in
their irreparable loss.

The ORPHANs-The collections taken in
most of the Protestant churches last Sunday
morning in San Francisco, were for the bene-
fit Of the Protestant Orphan Asylum. In
some, as in the First Congregational, the col
lection was postponed until the first fair day,
as the inOlemency of the weather would have
made it less than was to be desired. The
Christian Advocate hears reports of the re-
suits of the collections in round numbers
from the First Presbyterian church, $3.50
Washington street Baptist church, 500; and
from the Powell st. Methodist church. 1870

BLEEDING KANSAS. Our readers have fire.

Kansas caused by drought. Some people in

Rev. L. Star King, J. II. Dunnel, of San Fran
cisco; Judge Mcllune, Of Sacramento Levi
Goodrich and 5. Clayton, OF San Jose. Those
who are desirous of spreading their charity
have good opportunity, but be it known, we
DO not urge upon any one to send money to
Kansas or any other "Booriboola-Gh so

Mormon ISLAND WINE-The Union editor
has received a sample of wine manufactured
from grapes grown on Mormon Island. The
communication accompanying it is of the fol-
lowing purport
ain the month Of October last, at the re-
quest of my neighbor Broder, sent you IA
couple bunehes of grapes, which Were in the
opinion of Broder, superior to anything yet
produced in this State for the manufacture of
the most choice wine Since that time the
process Of fermentation, as wellas every part
Of the manufacture Of wine, has been gone
through with; and with the experience and
skill of Broder, you have the result of the
wine, entirely free from acid of any kind,
which renders this quality of grape superior
to any other grape or any other fruit for pro.
ducing a wholesome wine yet Broder says
that much can be done before making an e.

PARTY AT THE ST.. NIoHoLAs.-The oung
Mems Calico Party at the st. Nicholas, Fri
day evening, was very brilliant affair. a
host Of young Misses and ladies, from twelve
to eighteen, thronged the spacious hall, and
there was a large attendance Of the gay and
fashionable besides. The music was excellent,
and the dancing went on right merrily The
supper was a feast of fat things, and there
was not vacant place at the tables. The
streets were muddy, but the air was clear
and the rosy fair ones were scarcely incom-
moded by the wet footing outside, since
Lambdins luxurious hacks were on hand to
roll the fair burdens to their destinations.
The party broke up at q late hour and few
were inclined to take an early departure.

across Feather river. We are informed that
hacks will be furnished for the conveyance
of ladies and gentlemen to the place designa-
ted. This ball is going to be merry affair,
