noted for pursuing this line of conduct, and
carry It to the most Infamous extent are al.
most invariably short.lived. You have had
number Of examples in point in your terri
tory RECENTLY. In San Francisco we had got
nearly clear Of this evil within the past few
years. but the establishment Of new party
organ, a few months since, gave chance
for some worthless pests, who stick to news
paper literature as cockle-burr sticks in a
Sleeps tail, to open their batteries OF filth,
and assail everybody right and left who did
not truckle to them, or had ever given them
real or fancied cause Of offense. The game
was all in their own hands for some time,
but it did not win, and when a fall came, 1t
was crusher. A few days since the filth
est Of these filth singers got on a big drunk,
was arrested, and got into the calaboose. OF
course he had no friends, and got no mercy
at the hands Of those he had abused for
months. The place he had occupied was
filled, it is to be hoped, with a better man,
and one Of those whom he had most 6ittsr-
" and personally assailed, let him off with
only the following contemptuous notice in
the regular Police Court report:
&C. D. Mcdonald, poor, dirty, half
witted creature, pleaded guilty to the charge
Of using obscene and profane language while
drunk in Maguire's Opera House, and, in
consideration Of his miserable condition, was
let off with fine OF only So"
To the credit Of the paper to which he had
been attached, let me state that the use of its
columns for the publication of a savage
attack, in his old style, on all who had dared
to mention his case, was denied him, and
there is now healthier tone in all the San
n1Iu hnIl At laog in lNaky
of the press which had been engaged in the
filth throwing line for months past.
FROM THE LOWER COUNTRY.
It turns out that the people of San Fran
cisco were sold on the Santa Barbara relief
matter, the amount Of restitution there en-
isting being entirely within the means of the
local authorities to relieve, and the getters up
of the demonstration are roundly cursed by
their fellow-citizens in that county for their
oficiousness. The condition of matters in
the southeastern part Of the State is becom-
ing somewhat serious, the Chinehueras and
Owens River Indians showing evident dispo-
sition to rise and expel all the miners in that
country. Owens River Valley is almost de-
serted by white men, and those who remain
are in mortal terror; while further down to-
wards Fort Gum, in San Bernardino county,
the Chinchucras have actually commenced
the work of murder, burning down the Amar-
goza mill, killing the engineer i'll charge,
killing deputy Sheriff of San Bernardino
county and his companion on the desert, and
committing other outrages. The late arrivals
from Ell Dorado Canon report nearly all work
suspended in that section, on account Of
want of funds and grub for the miners, and
the same causes are operating, though with
less sweeping effect, to retard work on the
rich mines in the several districts lower down
the Colorado.
THEATRICAL AND MUSICAL.
At the Pavilion on Sunday, the 0ratoria
of the "Creation," was rendered BY the
Bianchis and a powerful auxiliary corps,
with but moderate success. The music was
good, but the place is no place for such per.
formances, it is cold and uncomfortable, and
the audience can hear with difficulty but
short distance away from the instrumental
performers, while the singing can hardly be
heard at all. The Opera company at the
Academy of Music, is playing on its last week,
and will leave for the East on the Sd Ct
November. At the Opera House, the keans
still draw largely, the house on each evening,
being overcrOwded. l saw the "Wifes
Secret" on Tuesday evening, and between
you and me, it was not equal to what have
seen done by common stock a thousand times.
Mrs. Kean's Lady Erstine was fearfully
"beefy," and kean's Sir Waltar Aymot,
though good, was far behind some OF his
other efforts. Louis XI., has been repeat
edly repeated, and must say that the more
see OF it, the more admire it. II kean
had never appeared on any stage in any other
character, this alone would stamp him as an
actor of the first class. The universal ex-
preston heard on every side when he is play
ing this character is, " 1t beats anything
ever saw in my li(e."
HOW DID PENNSYLVANIA co?
Unionists and Democrats have, in turn,
fred 100 guns over the election in Pennsyl-
vania, and the telegraph has on each success
sive day given the State to opposing parties.
With the counties yet to hear from, am
satisfied that the home vote is in favor Of the
Cops By from $500 to 1000, but there can
be little of any doubt that the soldiers vote
will more than make up the efficiency, and
place US all right. A leading newspaper pro-
prietor of this city, now in New York, tele-
graphs to his partner here that "Lincoln's
re election is placed beyond doubt by the
State elections" and with this assurance, l
am content.
THE FRANK CASE.
The case of Frank, charged with forgery in
the matter of the Utah Mining Company, has
been continued from day to day for nearly two
weeks. At2 o'clock P. N. to-day, it was to
have been heard positively, but at the hour
named the Court merely met and adjourned ;
and it is generally understood that the matter
has been hushed up or settled in some shape.
Yours. ever, AMIGO.
