SINGULAR EXCITEMENT IN SToCKroN.-The

alike stampede Of a hundred horses in n
stable!" Going into these meetings with
neat clothing they come out with IL torn
and dlsarranged; breastpins are torn Off
and trampled under foot In the melee.
Each hOlloas as loud as possible; they buck
their heads against the benches and sides of
the building, giving themselves blows that
on ordinary occasions would knock them
down If not render them insensible. Some
imagine they see Jesus standing 10 the room
dressed in white; while others believe they
see him in the form of dove lowering
around the preachers head, flying ia and
out of the window. Those who get in this
condition. strain their eye-balIs al the oh.
ject they believe they see az IL they would
burst them from their sockets, and shout
aud jump like maniacs. The whole con0re-
cation jump about the room, clapping their
hands, kicking off their shoes, aud shouting
in manner to drown an Indian war wboop
presenting scene like the Obeah dance
practiced In Africa and the West India Is
lands. When they become unusually excl
ted they imagine they have the devil 10 the
room, and all commence kicking at him,
calling It "kicking the devil around the
stump" or course they kick at air, but
sometimes make mistakes and give each
other extraordinary blOws; one woman on
bench kicking man on the jaw, swelling it
considerably. But these kicks they thus re-
ceive are unfelt at The time, so great is their
excitement. We Judge the devil would have
poor show among them. AT one of these
meetings, yesterday, one OF their number,
after shouting, kicking Off bis shoes and
tearing bis coat. ran out into the street and
jumped into deep paddle Of water, in bis

Gov. stanFord's NIanIfestO.

The San Francisco correspondent Of the
Sacramento Bee has the following remarks
upon Gov. Stanferd's late political mani
festo. The Governor, IL will be remember
ed, announced bic determination to stick
to bis own party organization. but advised
Union men of other parties to drop their
organizations, for the sake of the Union:
In all this. Governor Stanford has been
advised by Governor Nye, of Nevada Ter
ritory. He has been with Governor STAN
ford constantly, and has succeeded in inn
pressing upon his mind the actual necessity
OF keeping afloat the banners Of Republican,
ism. / wrote you yesterday that believed
this letter-writing was trap in which Gov
ernOr Stanford was TO be ensnaTed. Imain-
tain that belief. for do not believe that all
those who addressed the letter 10 the Gov
eTnor asking him for bis views, will, now
that be has acceded 10 their demands, sus.
tain him 10 the expression of those senti-
ments, as contained In that letter.
This may prove worse trap than that
into which Governor DOwney was drawn
when prevailed upon to write bis famous
anti-coercon letter; said letter having been
read to Senator Latham, Judge MOnson
aud others, and approved by them. This
letter of Governor StEnford's was read TO
select few, who nodded, as If approving,
aud who now say they are not to be caught
by any such chatf as that contained therein.
Coming events, 1t is said. cast their shad-
avs before, and II should wake ND some
fine morning and read 10 the papsrs Of the
day that Governor Nye, of Nevada Terri
tory, intended TO enter the list for posi-
tion In the gift of this State, ! should not
be at all surprised, but should say, "well,
that event cast its shadows as far back as
April, 1862" All the old Senatorial con-
tests of the past will be no comparison to
that one which is to take place next Win
ter. II will go far beyond (in legerdemain)
anything tine celebrated preslidigitator,
Hermann, could accomplish. There are
many more things done in politics, Messrs.
editors, than either you or dreamed of in
our philosophy; aud as time wags Oh, we
will see bow wonderfully strange some
combinations are made. Time, that great
developer Of human events, will present to
our astOnished gaze much to interest and
instruct.
The letter has caused the queerest varie-
~ of opinion have ever listened to. lis
denounced by some, laughed at by others,
treated seriously by few, aud passed with
out The slightest notice by O great many.
II will have the effect TO split the Republi-
can party 10 twain.
The Nevada Democrat., 1862-04-17

FROM EsMDRALDA.-Mr. II. T. Parlin or.
rived in town yesterday, with team, from
Aurora, for the purpose Of returning with a
load of -four, potatoes, etc. Immediately
on bis arrival here be concluded not to take
any -four back, for the good reason that
none could be purchased In our market.
That article Is now extremely scarce In Au-
rOra, and selling for $24 per hundred. Mr..
Parlin informs us that at least half the men
10 that locality have been without flour for
the last month, and on short allowance
otherwise. But little work is now going on
at Esmeralda. 10 consequence of the men
having become too weak TO labor, owing to
the difficulty of procuring enough to eat.
This, however, will be speedily remedied,
as Mr.. Van Sickle sent over $4,000 pounds
Of -four some days ago, which Mr.. Parlu
met whilst coming in. He also met Mr..
Kaufman with 5000 pounds of the staff Of
life. destined for Aurora, which had been
purchased Of Van Sickle.
A correspondent writes us that three tuns
of float rock we're cleaned up by the Clayton
silver process which yielded $ll8 per tun.
The Emperor and Rtna companies shipped
several thousand dollars 10 bullion by the
last express.
Mr.. Bagley, Of Brown q Co.'S stage line,
has also furnished us few items from Es-
meralda. A new lead has been struck on
Middle Hill, about mile southeast of Au-
rOra, which is represented to be very rich
10 gold.
The soldiers sent out to the relief Of the
Ovens river party. left Aurora about the
first of April. No further news had been
received there from Ovens river. Inclu-
ding the soldiers aud citizens, 76 men had
gone to the relief of the party in the fort.
If they succeed in reaching their destination
il will make The entire force of whites on
the Owens river about ll6. II is hoped
that they will be able TO make their way out
through the Indians, or at least rescue those
in the fort from being massacred.-[Carson

Important Suit Involving nearly Half
a Million Dollars.

Most old residents will remember the hOr-
rible tragedy committed at Grass Valley, in
1857, when Michael Brennan killed his wife
and children and then blew bis own brains
out. The cause of ii was known to have
been financial difficulties, but their extent
was never known. A suit was commenced
in the United States Circuit Court this NOR
ming, by the Mount Hope Mining Company,
whose Office Is In New York, against Andre
Chevanne, which will throw light upon the
whole matter, and disclose some further de.
velOpments regarding the affair. The COM
plant in this case says that Brennan made
several mortgages TO the mines Of the above
named Company, for which be was acting
as agent, in favor Of Chevanne, the smallest
of which was for $1,000 aud the largest,
which was an absolute deed, though inten-
ded as mortgage, was for $65, 900; that be
allowed judgments to be obtained against
the company by default, and without oppo-
sitiOn, and the mines 10 be sold under exc
cution TO CheVanDe until be had obtained
full control over them. 1t is charged that
for these several mortgages and deeds Che
vanDe never paid any consideration, and
they we're false and fraudulent. Since the
uehlu VI Dttuuhug OueVdODe uhS Deeu WORK
ing the claim, and. they allege, has taken
out 1897 900 from the mines, besides other
sums which he has received. The mines
upon his takingpOssession of them in March
1857, were worth not less than $l5O,O0O.
The plaintsffs now ask that they may be put
in possession of the property; that the deeds
mortgages, judgments and cOnveyances
made by Brennan or obtained through his
cOnnivance, may be set aside as fraudu,ant;
that Chevanne be made to disgorge this
1897 900, which he has obtained from the
mine; that an injunction may be issued
against farther operations 10 the premises,
and that receiver be appointed.
This is the gist of the complaint, which
covers over hundred pages Of Iegcl paper
Taking 1t altogether, the amount of prop
erty involved, the tragic end Of Brennan,
and the circumstances connected Herewith
this is one of the most important and inte.
resting suits which has been commenced 10
the State for long time, aud is likely to
excite q great deal of attention.-[S. f.

Fort MoJAvE.-This post, says the Los
Angeles News, we believe, should be garri-
soDed at once. This route has for some
time been open for the uninterrupted pas
sage of persons from California to the rebel
States. II is believed that one party Of men
who left the State to take up arms against
the Government made their escape by that
route since the arrest of Showalter; that
others will do the same there can be no
doubt. A stir in this manner of leaving is
still going on in California; others viii soon
try it on.
