The Late Attempt to As~ass1natc Judge

The following is correct version of the at
tempt to assass}nate Hon. Stephen e. Field,
Associate Justice Of the United States su-
preme Court. Last saturday morning. while
was brought in and contained small package
about four inches square and one and halt
inches thick The package was enyeloped In
common white paper, and "a enc side had
stamp ofthe Pioneer Gallery: San Francisco,
attached. The supcrscription was printed,
"Cnlifornia Reports. with the exception Of
=. Washinston, D. Co. which had been cut
out Of q Newspaper, both Of the slips being
pasted on the ihco Of the package. :.
The Judge, upon first taking up the parcel,
remarked to Judge Lake, WHO vas present,
surprise at its reception. He stepped to the
window and pEovidentially discovered, when
lie had opened It about an eighth Of On inch.
that it was not photograph, and called
Judge Lakes attention to the singular ap-
EcaTancc Of the box. The latter, upon look
ing at it, pronounced it to be torpedo, and
afier putting It In water, took it to the Capt.
tol (opposite the roons Of Judge Field where
be, with Mr.. Broom, one Of the Clerks OF the
Supreme Court, examined the package.
These gentlemen finally went into the cat
riagc way under the Senate steps, nnd shield
ing themselves behind one Of the columns,
threw the boz against the wall, shatterinE on
Inc lid md exposing the contents. About d
dozen copper cartridges Ind been placed 10
the box, with the bnl1ets radiating from the
centre, which formed space Of abont one
inch III diameter. The sides OF the cartridges
Lad been filed through, 20 as to anoFd COM
1nunlcation with the powder: In The hstle
cavity surrounded By cartridges Was nxed g
peculiar friction match resembling 9 sma9
