ABUSE OF THE DEAD.-A late number o.
the San Francisco Examiner, in referring to
the arrest of Donahue, the murderer of FeFd
Patterson, took occasion to animadveTt most
unjustly and cruelty upon the character of the
murdered man. 1t said he was a Thorough
paced ruff1an, a thief, and treble-dyed as
sassin." Ferd. Patterson was neither. That
he killed Capt Staples is true, but, as one OF
the warm personal friends of Capt. Staples,
we say that Patterson was as much justified
IN that act as ever any man was who took
another's life to save his own. Indeed, no
better evidence of this can be had than the
fact of Patterson's acquittal in Portland,
where public sentiment was all in favor of
the deceased and all most bitter against Pat
terson. He was assailed by gang of ruff
Gans-he ran to his room to avoid difficulty :
unhappily, Capt. Staples was induced to join
the pursuing gang, and in his attempt to IN
doubtedly take the life of Patterson, be lost
his own at that mans hand. OF the Pink
ham affair we need say nothing-this COM
munity fully know about that. He was az
qaitted after a fair trial before Court
watch certainly was not partial to him
We have yet to hear of any murder"
ever rerpetrated by Ferd. Patterson. That
be Was dangerous man to any who pro-
yoked his ire, is true; that he was not good
citizen, is also true; but he was never a
marderer, an assassin, nor thief. He had
great faults and great virtues But he is
dead, and of what avail are the efforts.to
b!acken his character2 He was of good family
aad has left relations whose character is
above reproach 1t is neither humane nor
nanIy nor charitable to seek to further LAGER
ate and wound their feelings by slandering
bis memory. Let the dead rest. His MUIR
decer ought to be punished, as the murderer
OF any other nan ought to be. We never
became acquainted with Ferd. Patterson, but
re ahhor this uncalIed-for, foul aspersion of
! re dead. ~

FATAL AFFRAT.-From the Walla WalIa
Statesman of the 9Th instant, we learn that
John ]. Ryan of that city was shot dead by
James Kinney alias Barney" in Cosgrove's
Saloon, on the night of Sept 29th The
parties quarreled over game of cards Ry-
an gave Barney slap in tAe face, and drew
derringer. Barney retreated, Ryan followed.
Finally Barney drew pistol and fred Ry-
ans pistol went off almost at the same time,
and he fell lifeless to the Aoor-the ball from
Barney's pistol having pierced his BRAIN
The ball fred by Ryan entered the wall back
of Barney without hitting him. The next
morning Barney surrendered himself, and af.
ter an examination was discharged from Gus
tody on Monday. He left in the stage for
Boise City on Wednesday. Ryan formerly
lived in this city, and Barney was here few
weeks ago. The deceased was 33 years of
age and native of Albany, N. Y. He was

AN INDIoATIoN.-Reports from Montana
and other adjacent gold countries satisfy us
that, after all, persons who go in quest OF
richer or more generally paying diggings
than are to be found in this Basin, and just
around this city, will, in nine cases out of
ten, find themselves deceived in their search.
Already the exodus from the Blackfoot coun-
try is very great-far beyond that from Idaho.
Many who left here during the year for those
dlggings and elsewhere, have returned, per-
fectly convinced that this Basin furnishes the
best inducements to the practical industrl-
Gus miner Idaho is a permanent mining
country. Bear this in mind.

ANDREW JOHNSON, says the Oregonian, is
the first American, since the formation of the
Constitution, who has dared to familiarize
the minds of the people with tyranny, by
limiting at the possibility of his constitutional
Office being turned into a military Dictator
ship. Why, we thought one Abraham Lin
coin had SO familiarized the people with the
most absolute tyranny, and played the mill
tary dictator SO thoroughly, that there was
nothing in that way for his successor to
teach.

STATE RrGHTs. Before the Radicals got
possession of the Federal Government, and
while they held certain of the States, they
were the most ultra of State Rights advo-
Gates, but as soon as they elected Lincoln
they proclaimed State Rights to be treason
able heresy. Since Johnson has opposed
their political schemes and policy, they be-
gin again to advocate the Unreasonable"
doctrine. In his fury gainst johnson, Gov.
Fletcher of Missouri threatens to oppose the
Executive with the military power of the
State. If it was treason for Democratic
State Governors to oppose Llncon's author

ernors TO oppose the authority of johnson
Let our Radicals reflect and decide upon th is
question. They ought to be consistent in
all they profess and practice.
