HORRIBLE CASE OF ISFASrIcIDB.-The
particulars Of a most horrible case of in
fansicide, which occurred about two weeks
ago in this city, has just come to light
through the Roman Catholic confessional.
It appears that about midnight q carriage
drove to the rooms of q midwife. and a
well dressed young man persuaded her to
accompany him to another part Of the city,
to which she reluctantly assented. Taking
her in q roundabout way, he brought her
to a large house in some street which she
could hardly describe, and ascending to
the third story, she found a woman in
labor. As soon as the babe--a healthy
child-was born, she asked for clothes to
cover it, when the man replied that there
were none, and that the babe must be put
on the fire. This the nurse refused to do,
when he pointed a pistol and threatened
to kill her if she did not obey him. See
ing that she still refused, he seized the in
FAINT and threw it on the fire, where 1t was
literally roasted alive. The nurse was
Immediately taken to her home, where she
has been i'll ever since, and upon her re-
covery she went without delay to her
priest and related to him the above facts.
Detectives are engaged in investigating
the matter.-N. Y. Sun, March l4h.

terprise:
On Saturday last, the Carson Flume
Company was organized at Carson, with
John B. Winters. Of Gold Hill, Thomas

CONTAGIOUS DISEASES AMoSo CATTLE
The report OF the State Commissioners on
contagious diseases among cattle states that
,hey have responded to calls in ten different
towns during the year, in three OF which the
contagious pleuro-pneumonia was fGund to
exist. These places were Chelmsford, Ded.
ham and Nahant, and the investigations BY
the Commissioners in each case were very
thorough. They state that it is evident, from
their experiments, that il a COW is attacked
with the disease when having a large how OF
milk, the secretion will be partially or Wholly
suspended, depending, Of course, on the ,io-
leuee Of the attack and the duration OF the
disease. They further state that animals
which have had the pleuro-pneumonia WIN
fatten readily, although considerable lung
tissue may have been lost. Since the sppro-
priation by the Legislature oil SZo,O0o, IN
1854. the Commissioners have expended the
sum OF S7,943 IS, a considerable part OF
which has been for the experiments ordered
by the Executive Department. Several towns
have drawn sums for claims made previous

amounting TO 81, 9O6 So, leaving a balance OF

"RIoHr'' THREE TIMEs.-Looking over
Fessenden's late speech, we find Stewart
interrupts him on two occasions subse-
quent to his quarter Of column, eonfouud-
ing inquiry. Thus:
Mr., S,ewart-If the Senator will allow
Mr.. Fessenden-I cannot yield for any
more questions. I'm too much pressed
for time. I am trying to make out how
the matter stands, the Constitution being
such as it is: and the Constitution being
thus. that the States have the power to
regulate the qualifications Of suffrage, this
proposition is nothing in the world but a
prohibition and limitation. II, IN addition
10 that, as the Senator from Massachusetts
contends, Congress has the power of legis-
lation, which covers the whole question,
this does not affect it in the slightest pos
sible degree, for it does not allude TO 1t IN
any shape or form.
Mr.. S,ewart-I do not think he is right;
but I think If he is right, il takes away
the right.
We will treat any man who will make
oath to a fright" understanding OF the
above right, right, right. Fessenden evil
IDENTIFY gave it up; for he made no reply
TO the remark. William could flop on
these words without any n being able to
challenge him on the record. William
doesn't shine in Senatorial debate. He
had better chew his words more thor
oughly before he expatiates- especially
before he interrupts.

rrhs Exumincr hu. a t,ail.D

It would no doubt crafty the Examiner
very much could it pull down to the level
of that journal Andrew johnson, and
every person who in the least countenan.
ces the veto Of either the Freedmen's Bu-
reau or Civil Rights Bill, or raise itself by
that means from the odious position in
which it is placed from having opposed
the war. Such tricks, however, will not
answer, for there is q vast difference be-
tween the man who has done his utmost
to save the institutions Of the country in
the day Of trial and those who now desire
to take him into their care and keeping.
1t is but a few days since this same Ex-
aminer was denouncing President john
son as a murderer for having had the as
ssssins Of the lamented President Lincoln
hanged. 1t would be a strange state OF
things truly to find the President in full
fellowship with Copperheads and rebel
leaders throughout . the country. His
having vetoed two bills is by no means
indicative Of such a result. Indeed, the
difference Of opinion between Copper
heads and the President is complete. Such
journals as the Examiner have not q sim
gle feeling in common with him. Their
affected support is only an effort to sepa-
rate the party in power on q point by no
means vital to the public welfare. 10
show that our opinions are shared BY
other members of the Union party, we
have only TO give quotations from numer-
Jus journals throughout the country, but
for van OF space we shall be content with
a single resolution passed by the Lcgisla-
ture Of New York, which reads as fol-
lows:
"Resolred, That whatever differences rs
to detail may exist among the representa-
tives of the people. whether executive or
legislative, in the measures necessary to
attain the great ends which peace, after so
great a war, should yield, we, in some
mode its representatives, are not Of the
opinion that there should subsist such
diversity of intention as to general result.
or as to method Of attaining the same, as
should produce hostility Of attitude, or
the severance Of political relations but
that mutual reconsideration Of positions
and adjustment Of differing views will
hold in firm and productive alliance the
identical great purposes Of all. to wit {.
The real peace and constitutional unity of
all the States. and the assured liberty Of
all the people,"
Although a portion Of the loyal popula-
ton Of the United States may not be en-
,irely satisfied with the veto OF the Freed
mems Bureau and Civil Rights bills, there
is no reason why "there should subsist
such diversity of intention as TO general
result" "as should produce hostility of
attitude or the severance Of political rela-
tons" II is simply ridiculous to say that
President johnson can act in harmony
with Copperheads and traitors, but cannot
harmonic with a majority Of the Union
party, who stood side by side with him
during four years of wars. F. Bulletin.

MISPLACED CoNrIDRNcE.-A laughable
incident illustrating the uncertainty OF
mankind in general, and the Mexican man
in particular. occurred on Saturday after
noon. Levi Grub. well known as a driver
of the Overland stage on the route east OF
this city. was endeayoring to catch a mus
tang colt. on the hills lying between the
Fourth Ward and the summit, and after
repeated attempts to lasso the animal, he
was on the point Of giving it up, when he
observed a Mexican quietly looking on.
Thinking he was just the man, he rode up
to him, and offered him five dollars if he
would catch the horse. It was o bargain.
He dismouuted from his f~avorite saddle
and riding animal. and the Mexican vault
ed lightly into his seat, and as he was
riding off, Grub, perceiving that he had
no spurs. called to him, and christening
his, gave them to the Mexican. who ad-
justed them TO his heels while in the sad
die. Gathering his RATA in a coil in his
right hand, which he raised gracefully
above his head, he dashed the spurs into
the TANKS Of the horse, who bounded off
at a furious pace after the vagabond mus
tang. The colt galloped at q lively pace
up the hills to the southwest. the Mexican
keeping adroitly in his rear; and when
about three hundred yards of, the Mexi-
can turned in his saddle and raising his
sombrero, he bowed politely to Grub and
then gave rein and spur to the horse, who
bounded up the hill. To say that Grub
was astonished, would feebly express his
feelings. Like an experienced Jehu he
was a man Of prompt action, and perceiv-
ing the situation in an instant, he hastily
mounted a horse standing near and gave
chase to the faithless Mexican, and follow
ed him over the hills and down and
through a canon which opened into the
Reese River Valley, along which he dash
ed for a distance Of twelve or fourteen
miles. A stern chase is a long chase. The
Mexican was better mounted, and he was
an accomplished rider, and Grub reluc-
family gave up the unequal contest, sad
dened at the loss Of his horse and saddle
and his confidence in man at one and the
same time. He feels the loss of those
keenly but that he deliberately and I'M
necessarily threw his spurs after them,
fills him with inexpressible chagrin.-

A WASHINGTON correspondent Of the New
Haven Palladium still has great faith in
President johnson, for the following reasons :
"He is us positive and ardent in his aims
and wishes to distinguish between loyalty
and disloyalty as are the most determined on
that subject. But for the truly loyal, for
those who have suffered all but death from
their love for the old flag, he has an abiding
affection, a fellow-feeiing that makes his
heart yearn toward them as did Joseph's to-
ward his brother Reuben and no cannot ap-
preciatc, for one moment, the force Of any
Of those theoretical distractions about States
out of the Union, States in the Union, dead
States, conquered territories, ETC., that would
deprive such loyal men Of full fellowship with
their Northern brethren in the enjoyment Of
mutual rights and privileges under a govern
ment which they mutually defended in her
hours Of gloom and peril. When the people
fairly understand the Presidents attitude
upon this subject, they will not only be salts
fed with it, but applaud him for it,

arrived in Mexico, but his mission is not, as
imagined, to notify Maximillian that the
French troops were about to be withdrawn,
but that Max. must implicitly comply, with

would appear, he has not hitherto done.
Maximillian having complied with this ar;
