GOVERNOR SEYMOUR ON THE
RAMPAGE.

Our telegram to-day informs US that
Governor Seymour, of New York, has or
dered the District Attorney to procure in
dictments against those who closed the
offices Of the World and Journal Of Com
Dpsrcs. Those papers published bogus
document purporting to be proclamation
by the President, the tenor and object of
which was to produce panic and destroy
public confidence, depreciate public credit
and the value Of the currency. This
forged proclamation was published at the
moment of the sailing of the European
steamer, and was calculated to create,
among foreign nations impressions unfa-
vorable to the Federal Government. A
more fragrant and injurious act it was not
within the power of those influential jour
nails to perpetrate. The Provost Marshal
at once seized and closed the offices which
had published the incendiary and treason
able forgery. It is this officer, and those
acting under him that Governor Seymour
proposes to indict and prosecute, and thus
bring the State of New York and the Fed
eral Government into conflict. The State
of New York is powerful State, and
constitutes considerable portion Of the
loval North. But Horatio Seymour is
not the State of New York, nor, Governor
though he be, can he if he would, array
the strength of that great State in opposi-
ton to the nation. He will find that
whenever he raises his official hand in OPP
position to the cause of the people, his
gubernatorial sceptre will wither in his
grasp. and that the same power that seized
the incendiary journals can also crush a
rebelious Governor. There are black
marks enough already opposite Horato' S
name. and he had better be in no haste to
FILL out the score.

A NEW ANALGAMAToR-A CALIFORNIA H.
yESTIoS.-We have examined the drawings OF
IN amalgamator of quite novel character toi
which preliminary steps have been taken to Sc
cure patents BY Mr.. o. H. Taylor of this city,
the inventor, the working Of which we will en-
deavor to describe as well we can without an
illustration The inventor claims she application
Of forcing the pulp through pipes into quick
silver, with the aid of steam direct, or It's
equivalent, compressed air, or by pressure
of steam or air on the surface of the pulp
confined in tight tanks, as follows In
the last named manner, by the use OF two "
cred tanks placed near each other, and quicksilver
bowls or receptacleS, two in number, one Tor each
tank placed outside of the tanks, and connected
with them in such a manner that when the steam
or air is admitted to the tank, that is hled and
causes pressure on its surface it will cause the
pulp to pass out Of the full tank into the empty
on. through the quicksilver vessel by means OF
nine connections In small streams, so as 10 insure
the contact of all the particles with the
quicksilver. The pressure In the tank Just
discharged Is then shut of or condensed
and applied to the opposite tank, and the opera
ton repeated as many times as may be found ne
cessary The pulp can be tested while the opera
ton il being performed. In the process hrst re-
frrred to- by the use of steam direct through q
nine along with the pulp, the direction of the
min ia changed by a let Of steam, from one tank
10 the other through the quicksilver by
simple apparatus placed above the TANKS,
and connected with the steam generator.
:imple agitators are TO be used In the tanks, II
found necessary to prevent the pulp from settling
while being passed from one tank to the other.
II is estimated by the inventor that with the use
of this application, ores can be amalgainated in
very short space of time compared with the
present processes, especially gold ores that re-
ouire no chemicals. He estimates that he can
amalgamate a ton Of gold ore, in 81 table sized
tanks in less than one hour.-MiHing and ScieH'

SUPPLEMENT WITH TO- DAYS NEWS
DELINQUENT SALES TOMORROW
STOREY COUNTY UNION TICKET
HoITY! ToITY.!

The cross-6ring that has been going on
for week past between the Union and
Enterprise. concerning donation made by
the employees of the former paper to the
Sanitary Fund, has at last eliminated in
q serious row, and the bloody and barba-
rous code has been appealed to. Nearly
q column of this mornings Enterprise is
devoted 10 the publication of the CORES
pondence between Sam Clemens Mark
Twain and James l.. Laird. and Mr.. VII
mington, who comes in as an intervenor,
and assumes the responsibility of the ar
ticle for the publication of which Clemens
holds Laird to an account. Laird declines
to aecede TO the proposition of Clemens,
and the latter proceeds to "post" him,
with all those epithets in such case BY
the code made and provided. This is en-
phaticaly bad egg. In the first place,
the cause of quarrel was not one calculated
to enlist public sympathy; neither did
the discussion of the question demand the
use of the language which was resorted to.
If the matter results in bloodShed, the VIC
tim will not be mourned as a martyr in a
holy cause, nor the victor crowned with
laurel as the champion Of right. The SEN
timent of civilized community revolts at
the appeal to the bloody code on every tn
fling cause of offense. There is another
reason, and that very serious one, why
we object to the code being called into re-
QUESTION on slight occasions among the
editorial fraternity. We have noticed that
there IS pronenesS to fire at the legs, and
that There is a divinity that ,nl-shapes
our ends" to the extent that one of the par
ties is ever afterwards remarkable for the
gait vulsarly styled the ''step and go fetch
it." We have, albeit living in a duelling
community; 10 these many years, man
aged thus far TO keep step with the bal
ance of our fellow citizens; and have no
fancy, now that we are passing into the
"sere and yaller," to have every impudens
scallawag on the street accosting US with,
How are you, old Empy:" This thing
must be put stop.
