or THn ENrERPR1sE.


The writings, squirmings, twis6ngs,
agony and bloody sweat of the Enter
prise would excite sympathy If It's troubles
grew out of better cause. In order to
boost an unpopular man into position for
its own benefit, it took upon itself the I'M
worthy and difficult task of proving his
competitor, Mr.. Chas. W. Tozer, dis
hopest man. As Milo, of old, who rent
the oak, dreamed not of the rebound, so
did the Enterprise mlscalculate the effect
of the baseless charges it brought against
a man whose reputation, established dur
ing nearly five years residence IN the
Territory, was of itself a sufficient retuta-
ton of its dirty aspersions. 1t Is fortu-
nate for Mr.. Tozer that the very witness
es whose testimony was all that was re-
ouired to satisfy those who did not know
him so well, are residents Of the very
county where the charges are brought,
and are not only accessible but prompt
and willing to cheerfully give their certi-
fica.es to the falsity of these ISLANDERS.
These gentlemen, the Senators who in
vestigated the transactions Of Mr.. Tozer
in the Senate of California, and General
Williams, the then Attorney General, are
all here, and have publicly testified that
in all his official relations with the State
of California, acted fairly, honorably,
uprightly, and possessed the confidence
and esteem of the representatives of that
State. 4 full elucidation of all the facts,
so far from initiating against his honor,
have elevated him in the popular estima-
ton, and sunk the Enterprise in the depths
of public scorn and execration, and cloth
ed it in the vile garb of the mercenary
slanderer. Its unwarranted attacks upon
a respected citizen have made 1t a fair
mark for the shafts of Others, and its
neighbor, the Union, is bringing up the
record of its old Copperheadism and that
of Mr.. Driscoll. and repubhshing the
damning documents which prove that the
Enterprise has no claim to the character Of
loyal newspaper, nor Mr.. Driscon to
the votes of loyal men. To combat this
charge is heavier task than the Enter
prise counted upon when it commenced
its assaults, and its long and lame defense:
now occupy the room that it lately de-
voted to mendacious personal calumnia-
ton. 1t still makes faint show of the
old Tozer charges, but they are feeble and
amount to nothing. and are made with a
suffering, stammering utrerance that sa-
vors of the style of one caught in a lie
and who begins to wish he had said no.
thing. 1t has got a big trouble of it
own on hand now, and the Union lashe;
it and excoriates numerically, day after
day, with old copperhead extracts from
its own columns, that make it writhe and
yelp like a whipped schoolboy. Long
before the day of election candidates who
claim to be Union men will come to the
conclusion that their names hoisted at the
head of the columns of the Enterprise, is
but poor endorsement of their political
soundness, and their juxtaposition with
that Of Dennis DriscolI be quoted against
them on the principle that man Is known
by the company he keeps. The glass
house of the Enterprise is miserable fort

TELRaRAPHIc TROUBLES.

= The Indian hostiities along the line OF
the telegraph through Colorado Territory,
are likely to cause long interruption OF
Geographic communication. The latest
dispatches announced that there was not
a white man between Denver and Fort
Kearney. The sayages are concentrated
there in great force, and it will require a
considerable army and much time to clean
them out. 1t seems as though there was
no other recourse than the utter extermin-
alton of the Indian tribes.

BaA1Ss.-That dissgreeable old Piute

dying. He was taken with complain
which nobody who knows him would
ever have accused him of-that of having
brains" For particulars, see his paper
of this morning.I 1t is the same kind of
an attack that once killed old Bolts, in
Sacranento-who, however, differed from
the Piuts in this respect-he had the
articles-while old Loyejoy has just about
as muA as Indians generally have; plenty
of brains, but of very poor kind. The

SrRIKE.-The Carson Post says that on
Thursday evening about fifty of the work
ngmen of Empire City marched in pro-
cession, with banners and transparencies,
to the Silver State Reduction Works, and
ordered the employees of the mill to quit
work unless they received four dollars per
day. The Superintendent. Mr.. Nc
Donald, was absent in San Francisco, but
Mr.. oxylen, the Assayer, who was in
charge, consented to yield to their de-
mands till the Superintendent returned.
They also visited the mill of Captain
Mead, but we are informed they did not
meet with like success there.

sLANDER RRFUTED,

EDITOR PIUrE My attention has been called TO
an article In the Daily Enterprise, which. without
explanation from me is calculated to do my FRIEND
Mr.. G. W. Tozer, injustice. In the spring Of 1860,
was employed by that gentleman to take load Of
freight from Carson City to the camp OF some OF the
Carson river below Dayton. The price Agreed upon
was $40. packer with small train loaded for the
same destination, about the same time, employed
for the same party Upon my return was asked to
sign receipt for the sum of SIS, and my impression
Is that Mr. Tozer Informed me at the time that the
receipt was Intended to cover the amount paid both
the packer and myself Nothing In the above trans
action nor in my intercourse with Mr.. Tozer SINCE
has LEFT any but the most favorable impression on

MISCELLANEOUS ADVERTISEMENTS.
To the Public,

WE, THE UNDERSIGNED, HAVE HAD OUR
w attention called to certain charges preferred
against the integrity and competency Of Mr.. CHAS.
W. TOZER for the position he now seeks, which
charges are set forth In the Territorial Enterprise
and are based upon Mr.. Tozer's course Secretary
OF the State Senate Of California at It's twelfth ses
sion.
We are pained to notice those charges, as we be-
lleve, Senators during that session, that In the
opinion Of that Senate, after full and fair invest-
CATION of the whole matter, that no blame whatever
attached itself to Mr.. Tozer He was fully and
fairly exonerated, as we think; and we know that
he was uniformly at his post Of duty during that
session, and at the adjournment Of that body held
Its undivided confidence and respect both regard
ed his competency and integrity.
He also at that day had the undivided confidence
Of all Union men In that body regarding his true and
steadfast loyalty to the Union. We take pleasure In
Affirming these facts and doubt not but that In thus
averring we reiterate the opinions OF every gentle
man that was then member Of that body.

"DJn't you want the rebellion put DOWN."
said Billy,s''Yes," said the Quaker, ''and
sOeH put It down, too" mot without
horses, faith" said Billy. Without a.
ny of mine" rejoined the Quaker, walking
away. "Ws'll see about that said Bill
ly con6dentially to himself, and he mount
ed his horse and rode down the river q
compile or three miles, to Charley B-'s.
Calling Charley to the gate, he told him
the story Of his adventure with the Qua
ker," and finally says he, "now Charley.
you go up tomorrow, and buy the ould
diviPs horse, il you hare 10 give hundred
dollars for him, and bring him to me over
to B., and I'll give you five dollars for
your trouble, sonny, boy"
The next evening Charley was forth
coming with the horse, having bought
him for $50. Billy paid him his money
with a chuckle, and added the horse to the
fine lot which he had collected for the ar
my contractor at Cincinnati.
A few days later and before he had ship
ped his horses, Billy had the very luck he
was sighing for, viz to meet his Qua
ker friend in town. "0ch'' said he, ap.
proaching him, 81 believe you're the man
that wouldn't sell me your horse for the
army-now l want you to come tight a.
long with me to the stable, and see what
fine lot have bought for that same bu-
siness." The Quaker accompanied him
to the stable, and in passing through. of
course, discovered his own horse. "Why,
really" he exclaimed, in a tone of utter
CONSERVATION. "this is my horse" "Aye,"
quo Billy, che aOas your horse the day
wint over to buy him, but he's mine now,
sonny boy, sure" The Quaker drew
long breath, and said he. "I'll give thee
something for thy bargain, if thee will let
me have him again" "Not bit of it,"
thundered Billy, "By my sowl I'll sind
him to Cincinnati the morrow along with
the rest. and he'll be in the army before a
week, and be smashed all 10 the DiUl,

ABOLITION CoSssTEEcYs--Uncle Billy
Moran knows all about horses, and a good
deal about men. Last Spring be was up
the country buying horses for Government,
and hearing that an Abolition Quaker in
Matmon's Bottom, lear the head waters
Of Mad River, had fine horse to sell, he
went over to buy him The old Quaker
brought his horse out Of the stable BY the
halter. Billy took the strap, and after
moving the animal, and scanning him
closely, turned to the Quaker, and rays
be, "what's the TASTE money II buy that
horse?" "Eighty-fve dollars" was the
reply. "Pllgive you just eighy," says
Billy, "and that's every dollar he's worth
in the world" The man of the profuse
hat-brim hesitat.d for moment, and then
with the suddsnness which always follows
the recurrence of a "leading" suggestion,
says he, "what does thee want with this
horse, neighbOrg" Billy's reply, although
intended to assist him in the purchase,
was, strategically considered, dead fail
ure. Said he, with all the patriotic en-
phasis and insinuation that he could mus
ter, 81 want to turn him over to the Gov
eminent, to help put down this euyssd
ateksd re6silioA, so dor' Jedekiah
made no reply. but quietly took the halter
from Bil!y's hand, led the horse back into
the stable, came ont, pinned the door, and
was about to depart for the house, when
Billy, who had been struck dumb with A.
maEement, suddenly recovered his voice.
