A RIGHT TO REJo1oE GREATLY.

- aaHRaRZHa
The Union thinks the vietors in this
campaign are rather rough on the defeat
ed. We do not recollect "DemocrAtic"
victory-in times when Democracy was
according to name-shat did not callforth
many-fold greater demonstrative rejoicing
than has this last overwhelming victory OF
the Union party in Nevada. Now, for
instance. we have felt infinitely more ju-
bilant than we have thought fit to ex-
press. We believe that the honor and In
tegrity of the Nation is more at stake on
the proceedings Of this Congress than on
the action of any preceding. It is not
that a party is beaten, or aparty triumph
ant but that a Nation is truly saved,
that makes US glad in our very heart, and
disposed Cthough we protest we hain't dun
it y to hurrah with all our voice. The
Union hopes for an again triumphant De-
mocracy. Wethink that question is settled
now-the query as to whether it can re-
vive, That's what makes US delighted,
above the scale of mere party predomin-
ance. Not temporarily triumphant party,
but established principles Of government
even this, is the food of our praise and
thanksgiving. Not only here, on the
States Rights Doctrine, but in the East,
where Democracy" pledged itself to
Union-R Republican principles and captured
Union Generals for candidates, even there
it was smashed to smithereen. King De-
mocracy is dead long live the Republican
King! s.sr

EXCITING RUNoR.-An exciting rumor
was prevalent this morning to the effect
that the steamship Ocean Queen (of Van
derbilt's line to AspinwalD had been foun-
dered. On t~elegraphing to Sacramento at
2 o'clock this afternoon, we ascertained
that no such telegram came overland, and
that the wires have not worked since last
evening at FIVE o'clock. 1t is possible
such a catastrophe may have occurred, but
our authority that nc such dispatch has
passed over the wires is reliable. The
families of some of our Washoe people
were on board Of the steamship, which
has created considerable anxiety to see
the next news from the East. s

CAPTAIN H1LL's' CAsB.-We conversed
with a gentleman, the other day, who has
been connected withrthe soldiers in the
northern part of our State, in killing of
the savage Indians and protecting the
white settlements: He told:us that when.
ever the soldiers had a battle. the squawS
were as defiant and as brave in the fight
as the bucks, andtbat they could handle
the bow and arrow with the same effect
as the bucks. After one Of the battles in
which Captain Hill Commanded, an In
dian squaw was found dead with a live
child. A 10. Of sotdi&s .ontthe, ~sr-path
could not we'll, being out in a wilderness,
take care of and nurse q child {; 90 the
Captain ordered the infant killed-per-
haps having in view General Jackson's
celebrated order to the soldiers in Florida
when they were fighting the Seminole In
dams, that "by killing the knits meaning
the young Indians] thereafter there would
be no lice."r Captain Hills order was
carried out, and the useless little Indian
brat killed by which act, the useless
creature is better off to-day than II alive.
But Captain Hill has been court-martialed
in San Francisco, and yesterday he heard
his doom, as we see by the following tele-
gram in this mornings Union w .r.
1.-THE court-martial in the case OF Capt.
Hill, for killing an Indian child, found
him not guilty Of murder, but guilty of
m~anslaughter. They also found him
guilty Of conduct unbecoming an officer,
and sentenced him to be dismissed the
service and imprisoned one month at AL
catraz ; also, to forfeit all pay and allow
ance. Gen. Med DWELL does not approve
the finding and sentence, because the evil
dence proves the act to have been murder,
as defined by the statutes of Nevada, and
without any justification whatever. He
administers a severe rebuke to the court
martial, and concludes BY approving so
much of the sentence for conduct unbeT
coming an officer as cashiers the prisoner,
regretting that the condition Of the volun-
teer service Is such that q new trial for
murder can not be ordered" as

He also said. on the same occasion: .
