CIRCUIT CouRr-The trial of John
Smith, charged with numbering his wife,
vas resumed in this Court yesterday
Some fifteen or twenty witnesses were
examined, and the argument of the cause
was begun. The evidence ELECTED was
about the same in substance as that pub.
lished yesterday; a majority Of the wit
pesses had known Mr.. and Mrs. Smith
for years, they had lived together for a
long time as man and wife, when Smith
was sober he treated his wife as he should
do, and there appeared to be no coneiu-
siye evidence that he had abused her
when he was intoxicated. During the
whole of the examination Smith sat in
the Court room as stolid and unooncern'
ed a. If he had been spectator instead
Of the prisoner at the bar. Late In the
afternoon the evidence was all heard,
and A. B. Caldwell, Esq, opened the ar
gument, on behalf of the State. The
Court adjourned at six o'clock last night
pending the argument of the case The
case will, in all probability, be submitted
to the Jury and the fate OF Smith deol'

THE MEppLEsoME FOREIGNERS.

The late advices received from the East
show that the French and Austrian lmpe-
perialists in Mexico are still as much IN
clined to play some game on honest
Brother Jonathan as they were when they
first set sail across the sea to blot out one
republic from the Western Continent, while
its neighbor and natural protector was
occupied with his own troubles. 1t seems
that they have entered into the scheme OF
drawing into the Imperial army in Mexico
all the rebels they can, and that they have
already secured a few thousand to play
the part of guerrillas in the Mexican war.
The rebel officers, of course, are anxious
to get commissions from Imperial hands
and deck themselves IN the gay apparel
of the French and Austrian stats, before
they are too badly out at the knees and
elbows of their Confederate gray, and Of
course to secure their much coveted prize
they work every plan to induce the rank
and file lately under their control to enlist
under Maximilian's banner. This country
stood in no fear from Maximilian and all
his hackers, so long as they confined their
actions and directed their schemes to the
demolition of the Greaser Government,
by their jail birds from the old world, as
it was evident that if left alone they would
eventually get starved out, and have tc
leave the objects which so much excited
their cupidity. But # they attempt to
gather two or three hundred thousand
rebels just across the Rio Grandc, where
their venom against our Government can
tester and grow more poisonous. and
finally break out in a raid across our line,
and forever be injecting those persons yc,
remaining in our borders who have no,
yet been cured Of the disease Of secession
on the brain; If there is such clap-trar
seheming to be cried on by the frog-ea,.
ers; if they have not enough TO do to at
tend to the willy Greasers, who watch fol
and waylay them in every mountain pass,
or keep them shut up in the garrisoned
towns; If these things don't keep them
from meddling with our affairs, why hon.
est Brother Jonathan must and will follow
Sheridan's advice, and no longer "beat
around the bush," but send some big guns
after Macmillan and his crew that will
make them get back to the Old World
faster than ever they came to the New.

NOT OBJECTIONABLE.

Now that slavery is done away with. the
voters of the South have relatively two
tifths more Congressional Representative
power than heretoforc-thc entire of the
negroes being counted in the assignment.
Do we hear any Of the Democratic jour-
nails Directing to this: Not much. They
are quite willing to have q back mar stand
as an intcgcr in the calculations for rebel
rcprcscntation-ifsuc might be tolerated.
Whatsoever is tributary-or may be SC
readily mnde-to the selfish advantage of
the Coppcrhead party is all right. They
would'like to have Cinnamon a basis Of
representation in Allison's Ranch. The
point is not at issue as to whether negroes
shall have any part in our Government;
for that is already fixed, and they arc as
fully represented in Congress as the sam
number of white men ; and that by Con-
stitutional provisions. The four millions
of negroes of the South will have thirty
one representatives in Congress. Thus
is the influence Of the negroes Of the South
in our National Legislature equal to that
of OHIO and. Indiana. This is to be treat
ed Us a fact that is, and can not be chang
ed. The only question to be determined
is this: Shall these negroes elect their
representatives or shall it be done for
them by men who have lately been in re-
bellion against the Government: Is it
safer to put all this power in the hands of
a few white men, making one voter at the
South equal to three voters at the North,
than it would be to allow the negroes
themselves to vote? There are many
difficulties as well as prejudices in the way
of an adjustment Of this question; yet can
any settlement Of it be just which gives
thirty thousand voters in South Carolina
three members Of Congress while the same
number in Indiana only have one: This
is n of the most important aspects OF
the suffrage question, and it behooves US
to examine the subject carefully and as
free from prejudice and passion as posi-
bic. Investigation will do no harm.

We hope the honest citizens of Sacramento
will take due prccaution against tho rcpe-
ti,ion of impositions that were wont to be
practiced by hotel keepers and hackmen
on visitors. Sacramento ought not to
be famous for the extortions practiced
on strangers sojourning there in "crowded

cipal citizens are enterprising and EeSolute
in public spirit beyond compare ; and they
did once organize successfully for the pro.
lection Of State Fair patrons. Let them
do so again, and give the country notice
of the adopted preventives. At least five
hundred people will visit the Fair from
this State-if there is assurance Of rea-
sonable accommodations at reasonable
charges.

MAJOR O'BRrAN.-We have heard some
very severe animadversions upon the SOL
dierly conduct Of this officer, as manifested
at Fort Churchill recently towards Mrs.
Colonel McDermitt, during the absence o.
her husband /; as also towards the remains
of Colonel McDermitt, after he was killed
by the Indians. The charges in this lat
ter connection are, that being in command
of the forces after the death of the Colonel,
he unnecessarily delayed the transporta-
ton of the corpse into the settlements,
where it might be properly prepared for
decent burial by his friends. These ru-
mors of the conduct Of Major O'Brian
have been noised about the streets of Vir-
ginia, Gold Hill and Silver City, and the
officer charged with them owes it to him.

ExTERMINATE!-A SOLEMN AP-
pEAT,f

That IS the only thing to be done with
the Indians in the arGy twixt here and the
Missouri, and from here to Idaho and
Oregon. Now General Halleck has ar
rived, and is about to assume command Of
this Department. We directly appeal to
him for force sufficient to clear the track
of the pioneer, the pIospector, as well as
protect the outskirt villages Of Nevada.
We have given up expecting anything
from obese Mcdowell, who is evidently
TOO much on the "amenity with all
mankind in general, and Ingins and Cop
perheads in particular, to do anything in
the way of military guard and protection
for any one-except Contractor Mason.
Certainly, if he has showed any dispo-
sition with energy to do his duty at all,
in any quarter outside of that expressly
named, it has been for the Chico route
taking travel from Nevada. We don't
care to complain OF that fact-a trifie BY
itself IF he had shown q desire for our
military defense commensurate with our
absolute need, we should not suggest his
favoritism for a round about journey path
10 Idaho. We have not said anything
tla.,ering of General Halleck and do not
consider that history has proved him q
very vigorous officer. But we cannot but
believe that he will appreciate the neces-
sity OF q strong force and u quick march
of determination against the savages, upto
the limit of his lines OF command in Ne
vada. If there is not force sufficient in
California, let an order be procured from
the Wa Department for recruiting a regi-
ment Of three or six months men. Give
US that privilege over here. and Lance
Nightingale will head I've take this on
ourselves to say q thousand picked men
,ha, can be gathered here. and that would
assemble at his regimental call from Cali
fornia, that would leave not the relic Of
u hostile Piute in all the land that would
make such O r%etributive demonstration on
the Internal brutes that their ~deprcdations
would no more be heard Of by this afiict-
ed people. Lance can have leave Of alb
scnce from the Controllers Office for this
special service, with his civil post insured
for him on his return.
General Halleck, we respectfully ask
you for q campaign in our barbarian dis
tricts!
