sorry titles to land in the public domain can
be taxed by the State and held liable for the
sum assessed. Although the decision was
made With reference TO possessory claim to

RErALIAr1oN.--Iu our last issue we spoke
of fifty Pah.Utes having been killed in Ari-
zona, in retaliation for whites murdered by
them. We have since seen letter from
Mohave City dated the 2ud inst, which says
in relation to the affair."
"Last night the Mohaves, backed by or
10 Americans, made raid upon the Walla
pis and killed "a, and took 10 prisoners, the
latter being women and children. The Mo.
baves done the fighting and are entitled to
all the credit. The boys say it was a horri-
bic sight. They killed them with war clubs,
and when their skulls were beat in and life
still showed itself, they would hit them in an
indecent manner, to see them kick. They
shot blunted arrows into the PROSTATE bodies
and piled sand over those still breathing,
with numerous other brutal acts. HI is
to pay all around US, and even here in Mo.
have City we dare not 60 out without our
six-shooters."

New RULE IN BILLIARD PLAYING.-Tbe
last humber Of the Billiard Cue contains
an announcement from Mr.. Phelan of an
important change in the by laws of th e
game Of billiards. Heretofore when the cue
ball was in contact with another, or frozen,
the player must strike another ball before the
one with which he was in contact, in order
to count. Mr. Phelan announces that after
January 1st player if his ball be frozen can
count, provided be p lays away from the ball
with which be is in contact, though on the
return ofthe cue ball from the cushion OF

FRATRIcIDAL CHARACTER OF THE War;
The Hon. Lewis Campbell, of Ohio, one Of
the delegates to the late National Convention
in Philadelphia, addressed large mass meet
ing in that city. In the course of his speech
he remarked:
BY the way of illustrating the fratricidal
character of the war, will relate an Incl
ent: had two brothers in the war; one
unfortunately, in the rebel army in Texas
and the other in the Union army. They
were sons of one who, at the age of seven
teen, fought at the battle of Eutaw Springs
One of my brothers at the head of a regimen
of Texans, fell in Louisiana, and the other
at the head of regiment in the Union ar
my, fell at the battle of Chancellorville.-
And the news Of the death of both of these
-one on the one side, and the other-reach'
ed their afflicted mother on the same day;
and so tits every where, brother against
brother upon fields of battle. The conven-
tiou meeting here will heal the wounds.
From every State we come ogether-from
all the States-in the common cause OF
American nationality. (Cheers)

For A BURN.-By laying piece OF

remedy is cheap and simple, and certainly
deserves a trial.

gSome of our friends think it strange
that we should express ourself as having no
hope Of the democracy being successful in the
elections that came off on tuesday last. We
have our reasons. The American people
have been laboring under a species Of insani-
ty for the last five or six years, and it requires
time to bring them back to reason. A cure
cannot be effected in day. They needs
must have rest and time for contemplation.
They do not as yet realize their situation.
The defeats in these elections do not discour-
age us. We know the truth and right will
triumph in the end. We are prepared to en-
ter the next contest for President with hope
and confidence in glorious triumph Uni
on Democrat.
