The MILLER TRAaBDY.-0ur telegram
from Sacramento yesterday, mentioned 4
shocking occurrence at Rationale Bar, in
Placer County, giving, however, an incorrect
name. The Sacramento Union gives the fol-
lowing account Of the dreadful affair. We
are well acquainted with the unfortunate
husband and father, who is one Of the oldest
residents Of Placer. The Union says:
The wife Of Louis E. Miller, the proprietor
Of a large orchard and vineyard, near Rattle
snake Bar, in Placer County, administered
September l2th, large dose Of poison to her
daughter, an interesting girl Of ten years,
who had just returned from school on yaca-
ton, which caused her death the same even
ing (Monday,) ater which she took another
dose herself, and although living at last ac-
counts, she IS not expected to survive. Do
nestle trouble is supposed to be the impel-
ling cause. -

Trihate e tho Flag,

The Nevada Gasette Of Monday says: Bish-
op Clark, in the mornings discourse yester-
day, at the dedioatory service Of the NJ. E.
Church, paid one Of the handsomest tributes
to the American Flag, and to loyalty, that it
has been our good fortune to listen to from
the pulpit in long time. On the Church is
= flagstaff erected, on the top Of which is
beautiful cross, and Immediately under It
flies the American flag. His subject at the
time was the "Cross Of Christ" as SYM
Dol Of the power and mission Of him who
bore it and suffered on it to establish the
principles for which he came into the world.
He said: 1.-THE flag Of our country, although
but small piece Of bunting, on which were
Impressed the stars and stripes, yet rs a SYM
Dol was powerful in the Revolution TO inspire
courage in the hearts Of the noble patriots Of
that day; and as an emblem Of the most no
BILE, humane and progressive principles Of
any nation on earth, they fought under it and
for it, and crowned it with success. So At
the present day, the same flag inspires cour-
age and energy in the hearts Of u million
and half Of noble patriots, who are ready
TO sacrifice pleasure, comfort and life, when
necessary, and rally around the flag to de.
fend it from . more desperate foe. And
they, too, with power which that symbol
inspires, will defend and protect it, until 1t
shall wave in triumph over every battlement
Of rebel conspiracy within the bounds Of this
once happy country. The power Of SYM
Dol no man can calculate: and there is only
one greater on the face Of the earth than the
American Flag, and that is the Cross Of
Christ" Knowing the patriotism Of the
Reverend Bishops congregation, crowded
nearly to suffocation in the new church, we
almost "trembled in our boots for fear we
would find ourselves, with the whole audi
ence, stamping applause, as at .. political
meeting; but intelligence and good sense
prevailed, and every face beamed forth a
brighter loyalty, and every heart beat hap
pier, and as II filled with better religion
from having heard the Bishops discourse.

The NIinos Or AInlns,

The following complaint in the Alpine
Chronicle, showing the short.sighted policy
OF the people OF that region, Ia very applica-
BILE TO many districts Of this Territory, and
might, perhaps, be pondered upon with profit
even In localities not far from this town:
The people who came here to build up the
country and develop the mines, were usually
Of poorer class they have been hammering
away in the old slate hills, for one, two and
three years, and with but little resources for
4 maintenance save their own labor, and
they have become so impoverished they must,
of necessity, abandon their work for while.
They have exhausted their resources, we are
sorry to know, on too many lodges. The
question might we'll be asked by those seek
ing to invest in our mineS and to help to de.
yelop them, aud to every man who seeks to
buy mining stocks, such questions naturally
present themselves, why have you not in the
time you have been at Il, opened some one or
more Of your lodges, il they are worth any
things The fact is, there are so many lodges
here that almost every man has one Of his
own, and has been short sighted enough to
think he could, by his individual effort, place
il into market. Now, as general thing,
every one has from 500 to |, 900 feet Of mining
stock scattered around the country, in from
FIVE TO fifty lodges, and the respective COM
panies have sought to work their claims,
more or less, what business has poor man
with interests in 80 many companies when be
is not able to pay such assessments in one as
should be levied to work it properlyS There
has been an universal CRY among the poorer
class Of men against capitalists leVying big
assessments on claims In which they hold a
controlling interest, and thereby "freezing
out the small fish. We would to God, to-
day, for the sake Of the pioneers Of Alpine,
and the county, they had have levied such as
sessment, as would have been sufficient to
carry on the work Of prospecting, but, unfor-
t,inately for the poor stockholders, they have
not been frozen out" Of the greater portion
Of their stock, and now It remains on their
hands, with the lodges unworked, and there
fore Of no market value, We are net LEFT
remedilessi We have many excellent lodges
that have been prospeoted, and with little
more capital and labor being expended, they
may be made to pay well, and notwithstand-
ing the depletion Of our population and uni
versal cry Of hard times, we may, with what
available means we possess among ourselves,
help ourselves; but not by scattering and
wasting our strength on worthless veins, good
and bad, but by all means consolidate your
efforts, and by combination and unity Of
action we may yet, though the season be far
advanced, ship from Alpine. loads Of silver
bricks"

UNION.

The shameful result of the last election
has taught the Union men Of Storey
county a lesson, which, If needed, will be
of sufficient value to compensate for all
the modification resulting from that dis
graceful defeat, and any evil that can pos
sibly accrue from Copperhead rule
within the limited territory of Storey
county. The necessity Of Union against
the common enemy has, too late for the
good of the party, forced itself upon the
minds of all. The evil results of dissen-
sion have been accomplished, and it is
now too late to look back and handy
words about causes, and useless to mourn
over effects. The past is beyond restora-
ton or amendment, and it is the immedi-
ate future that demands our care and
attention. How to reaSsemble the scat
tered forces into an united mass, determin-
ed on and possessing all the required force
for and elements of complete success, is the
question that now commends itself to the
careful consideration and prompt action
of all loyal men. Nice questions Of "reg-
ularity" and strict etiquette must be
waived for the nonce, and little self-ab-
negation on the part Of quite number OF
prominent politicians of the party, will
not only be required, but will be both be-
coming and wholesome. Even if re-
garded in the light of penance it will be
not entirely undeserved. There is now
Territorial organization of the Union party
and Territorial Central Committee, OF
which David S. Turner, Of Virginia, is
the chairman. There is another one, ap-
pointed by the so-called Convention which
met at Carson last month and nominated
Fitch for Delegate to Congress. The latter
was very generally ignored on account OF
the total irregularity of its proceedings,
yet it undoubtedly lays some claims to
legal existence. Mr.. Turner has issued a
call for his Committee to meet on Tuesday
next, and, waiving all questions Of prece-
dence, has invited the other Committee to
Join in the consultation. We earnestly
hope the call viii be responded to in the
right spirit, and all paltry issues sunk in
the one vital question of Union for the
sake of the Union.

PIONEER RELIcs.-The Silver Mountain
alpine county, Bulletin remarks: We were
shown on Wednesday, BY Mr.. Griffith Of
Calaveras county, some interesting relics OF
the past, embracing the spout Of an old tea
kettle, dirk knife and other such things
brought by him from Lost Canon, near Wal
ker river, and about fifty miles from this
place. It viii be recollected that it was here
where, Fremont and his exploring company
were lost many years ago, and to extricate
themselves, they were forced to abandon a
cannon, wagons, and most Of their camp
equipage. Those forsaken articles are now
euriosities, Of which those shown US by Mr..
Griffith undoubtedly form part. The can
non, mountain howitzer, was purchased BY
party now in Virginia City, for 800, from
person who brought it from the place where
it was deserted. But lately it was seized BY
the Provost Marshal, and in Virginia on
the Fourth Of July it belched forth national

Home Guards.

The Sacramento Bee has an article on the
necessity Of such organizations as are now
forming in this Territory. 1t says:
The developments made during the course
Of the trial Of the stage robbers at PlacerVille,
show concluSively that the band was organ
lied for the purpose Of securing recruits for
the rebel army, and for making war on be-
half Of the so-called Southern Confederacy
and that many Of those who engaged in the
enterprise did so under the impression that II
captured they would be treated a. prisoners
Of war. The leader was provided with COM
mission, or what purportS to, be such, from
JEFF. Davis. The evidence also shows that
the enterprise wa! aided, abettsd and eneoar-
aged by many residents Of the State having
property interests here, with the full knoWl-
edge that the first operations Of the gang
were TO be highway robberiss, and perhaps
the slaughter Of inoffenSiHe and defenseless
travellers. ..
These Developments admonish US thatkhere
is in this State class Of men ready and
anxious to inaugurate state of warfare here,
ostensibly in behalf Of the Southern cause,
but also for the object Of rapine, pillage and
plumber. They also admonfsh that this class
can boast OF considerable numbers. We are
likewise warned by them to be on our guard
against the Vaccinations Of the enemies Of
peace, order and safety on this coast, and to
prepare ourselves to meet their attack. or
course all suoh men as those implicated in
the FohheTies mature their plan of operations
in secret, and the public are entirely in igno-
rance Of their strength, intentions, or move
ments. Weknow not where they are in great
est force, or where they may make their first
demonstration. 1tmay DO In Sacramento, San
Francisco, or San Diego. We are utterly in
the dark. II therefore behooves US to be rea-
dy at all points to meet their attacks, wherever
or whenever made. An ounce Of pre-
ventiVe is worth pound Of cure" To be
prepared to meet an attack Is, in nine cases
out OF ten, equivalent to preventing an attack.
II we would have peace we must be prepared
to preserve il with strong hand II neces.
sary, The best preparations-the surest
safeguards our militia. Citizens Of Sac
ramento and Of all parts Of the State should
Join the militia and thus organise Home
Guards, who will be properly armed and
drilled, and thus ready at a moments warn
ing to quell any insuTrection that may break
out, or to repel any attack that may be made.
Every friend Of his ceuRtTy-eSery person
who wishes to preserve peace and maintain
security and order here ahOuld ally himself
with some military organization. We need
not get up military companies for simply hol-
iday parades; there Is no necessity or useful
ness in gaudy or other uniforms, but we
should have regularly organized, equipped
and drilled militia forces ready to turn out at

Cosxos.-A. B. Paul over his old sig
nature of " Cosmos" is out again in the
Enterprise this morning, with parcel Of
suggestions as to who should and who
should not be our State officers. If Mr..
Paul has not discovered that his late in
termeddling oficiousuess in public affairs
has disguised the people of Storey coun-
ty, we, who have heard more lately
concerning the matter than has come to
his ears, can inform him that such is the
fact. He is generally regarded by the
Union Party as q meddling, selfish disOr-
ganizer, whose patriotism is measured by
his own petty ambition. If he interferes
in the affairs of the Union Party in the
coming campaign, he will receive some
rough hints that his counsels are not de-
sired.

THE EASTERN NEWS.

The telegraph got to work again last
evening, and we have news to Monday.
Nothing of importance had transpited at
the front. Through rebel sources we
have news from Atlanta to the 9TH, from
which it would appear that Sherman is
doing nothing more than Strengthening
himself in that position. The New York
Nsrs repudiates Mcclellan, and demands
a Resembling of the Convention and the
nomination of a candidate to suit the
platform, or the remodelling of the plat
form to suit the candidate. A sensible
suggestion. Expeditions into Florida,
have resulted in capturing horses, cotton
and other valuables. Gen. Price IS re-
ported to have died at Arkadelphia, Ar
kansas, of his old disease, the dysentery.
The present Whereabouts and late doings
of the pirate Tallahassee are reported
through rebel sources.

UNION MEN OF THE SoUrH.-It is assert.

/ UNION MEN OF THE SoUTH.-lt is assert
ed that there are in the South great many
Union men still left. II it is true, the main
BODY of them must be in the Confederate
army, for CONSUMPTION has raked into the
ranks all Of proper fighting age, and beside a
large quantity Of unfit material from the very
verge Of the grave, and up to the edge OF the
cradle. II il be true that the South still
holds many Union men in 1t, what Is our
plain duty to them To release them from
the tyranny Of their usurping leaders. The
hone of these brothers Of ours who are drag
ped to the field to fight against the old flag
and the old Union they still love, is that We
will conquer their usurpers, break the power
of the Confederates who tyrannize over them,
disorranize their armies, dethrone JEFF.
Davis. and, without compromising or tempo
Hing. end the work now begun and so fine
Iv nToQressed. An armistice would deprive
these 9ersecuted Uuion men OF their last
hone, A premature peace, such as the CHI
rs9o resolutions seemed 10 favor, il it were
possible, would perpetuate in the South the
rule Of Davis, Memminger and that style OF
man. who have dragooned the South into Its
unwilling attitude. The conquest and sub
iuration Of tha South means the destruction
al the power Of these tyrants. 1t is Just as
sure, il there is true Union man IN !ne
South, that he hopes with US for the eiection
OF Lincoln, as that JEFF. Davis and his iae-

OUTRAGEOUS.

1t was once supposed that Omnipo-
tence alone could "make something out
of nothing" but we have seen that very
inferior order of the human race could
make out of the utter nothingness of the
Pitts a poisonous thing that shames ma
rure and should be crushed out Of exist
ence as an outrageous nuisance. The fol-
lowing, from its leading article" Of last
evening should be sufficient to cause the
traitorous rag to be suppressed before to-
morrow night:
Unhappy rulers! most miserable and
misguided Wretches; the cup is bitter but
the country demands that you should suffer
for the great enormity Of your crimes. The
names OF the departed great rise up in Judg-
ment against your cruel wrongs and unwise
expedients. From the fields of Virginia to
the rice swamps Of Georgia and the planta-
tons Of Louisiana, from the sterile hillsides
Of New Hampshire to the yerdant prairies Of
the mighty West, the whitening bones OF
your murdered countrymen are monuments
Of strife begat in passion and continued
through your animosity. The tears Of or
phans and widows, the manned and totter-
ing wrecks of once proud manhood, the
ruin and devastation Of myriad homes stand
recorded against your merciless reign, and
the tears Of archangels can never bleach the
blackness Of the calendar"
The accursed traitor who wrote the
foregoing dastardly and scoundrelly libel
upon the American Nation, accusing &c
Of commencing this war and Of the muir
der" of the thousands of brave men who
have died to preserve it from destruction,
ought to be hung by the neck and left
prey to the foul carbon crow. His pesti-
lential breath ought not be suffered to
ponute the air breathed by honorable
American citizens.
