Horace GreCIey's Ride to PIaeerviIIe.

Horace GrecIey'S Il ide to PlaeerVille.
When Horace Greeley was in California,
ovations awaited him at every town. He
had written powerful leaders in the Tribune,
in favor Of the Pacific Railroad, which had
greatly endeare him to the citizens of the
Golden State. And therefore they made
much Of him when he went to see them.
|. At one town the enthusiastic populaee
tore his celebrated white coat to pieces, and
carried the pieces home to remember him
by.
The citizens of Placerville prepared to
fete the great journalist and an extra coach,
with extra relays of horses, was chartered
of the California Stage Company to carry
him from Folsom to lacerVille-dis lance
forty miles. The extra was in some way
delayed, and did not leave Folsom until late
in the afternoon. Mr.. Greeley was to be fe-
ted at seven O'Clock that evening by the cit
liens OF Placeryille, and 1t was altogether
necessary that he should be there by that
hour. So the stage company said to Henry
Monk, the driver of the extra, Henry, this
man must be there by seven O'Clock to-
night" And Henry answered, "The great
man shall be there So
The roads were in an awful state, and
EduriBg the first few miles out of Folsom
slow progress was made.
"Sir," said Mr.. Greeley, ''are you aware
that mast be at Placeryille at seven o'clock
to night 2"
I've got my ORDERS laeOuically repfi-
ed Henry Monk.
Still the coach dragged slowly forward.
''SiF," said Mr.. Greeley. ''this is not q
trifing matter. mast be there at seVen!'
Again came the answer, 1--WE got my
orders"
But the speed was not increased. aud
Mr.. Greeley chafed away another half hour;
then, as ne was about to demonstrate with
the driver, the horses started into furious
iun, and all sorts of encouraging yells fill
ed the air from the throat of Henry Monk.
THAT'S right, my good fellow said Mr..
Greeley. ''I'll give you ten dollars when we
arrive at Placerville. Now We are going!'

A country Justice named Helser, recent

Lafayette, Indiana, aud that being out of
his Jurisdiction, the marriage has been pro.
nounced by the lawyers illegal, and the
Justice liable to be punished for violation
of the law. But the trouble did not end
there. A few days after the event just de-

preacher aud requested to be spliced. The
gentleman of cloth was in high glee at the
prospect Of some scrip. and told them to
stand up. But before proceeding he called
for the license. To this the soldier replied
that he had been engaged to Susan Jane for
four years, aud thought that license enough.

A WORD TO YOUNG MEN.-One of the
meanest things young man can do. aud
il Is not an uncommon occurrence, is to
monopolizs lhe time and attention of
young girl for year or more, without any
definite offset, and to the exclusion of 9TH
er gentlemen, who. supposing him to have
matrimonial intentions, absent themselves
from her society. 1t prevents the acceptation
Of eligible offers Of marriage, and fastens to
the young lady. when the acquaintance is
finally dissolved, the appsl!ation 6f "flirt.'
Let your dealings with women, young men,
be frank, honest and noble. That many
whose education and position in like man
ner would warrant Us in looking for better
things, are culpably criminal on these points
is no excuse for short comings The wo-
man is often wronged or injured through
her holiest feelings, and adds but much
blaoker dye to our own meanness. One
rule IS always safe: Treat every woman you
meet as you would wish another man to
treat your innocent, coufdiug sister.

Snow so r'ure when it falls from the sky,

Till it blends with the filth in the horrible street
Once was pure as the snow-but fell
Fell like the snow-fakes from heaven to hell
Fell to be tramped as filth Of the street;
Fell to be scofed, to be spit on and beat;
Pleading,
Cursing,
Dreading 10 die,
Selling my soul to whoever would buy;
Dealing in shame for morsel of bread,
Hating the living and fearing the dead
Merciful God Have l fallen so low 2
And yet was once like the beautiful snow.
Once was fair as the beautiful snow,
With an eye like its crystal, heart like It's

Once was loved for my innocent grace
Flattered and sought for the charms of my face

The veriest wretch that goes shiveFing by
Will make wide sweep, lest wander too nigh
For all that on or above me know.

How strange it should be that this beautiful

Should fall q sinner with nowhere to go!
How strange 1t should be, when the night comes

Arnoc1ous MURDER. On Wednesday ev

ATRocIoUs MURDER. On Wednesday ev.
ening last. Mr.. B. r. c. johnson, gentle
man who has long been resident of this
county, and who was well known and uni
versally respected in this community. was
brutally murdered, at his store on the Gala
veras river, about two miles below the Spring
Valley House. on the Copperopolis road
The following are the particulars in regard
10 the matter as we obtained them from MIR.
Johnson's clerk, who was present when the
foul deed was committed About seven
O'Clock on Wednesday evening. three men
two of them Mexicans and the other Chi
naman, or person disguised as such-enter-
ed the store apparently for the purpose of
taking drink The clerk was in the back
room or kitchen, at the time, but stepped to
the door " hich connects the apartments to
see who had come in. At that time the three
son was waiting upon them. There was
nothing in their appearance to excite suspic-
ion. and the clerk went back into the kitchen
to attend to his duties. Shortly afterwards
he was startled by the report of pistol and
heard Mr.. Johnson cry for help. He imme-
diately rushed to the door which opens into
the apartment where the murder was being
committed, when he was confronted bv one
of the villains who leveled a six-shooter at
lis head and forbade his entrance. He then
went out of the back door, ran around the
building and endeavored to get in at the
front door. but this was also guarded by one
of the rufians. Finding that his efforts TO
assist him were useless. he started for the
nearest neishbors at the top of his speed
Considerable time elapsed before help could
be obtained. and upon returning to the store.
a most horrible scene presented itself. Mr..
Johnso was lying behind the bar, dead
with three pisto! shots in his breast and hi,
throat cut. The till was robbed, and CUR
and two pistols were taken. The amount o.
booty secured by the murderers was insig-
nifcant, and it is the opinion of those besl
informed on the subject, that robbery wa.
not the only incentive which caused the CON-
mission of the murder. Mr. johnson had
recently obtained divorce from his wife,
who was Spanish woman, and considera-
bic hard feeling had been engendered between
him and some Of her countrymen in ccnse-
qusnce. Whatever the causes were which
led to the commission of the crime. it was Ger
tainly one of the bolGest and most cold
blooded murders ever perpetrated in Gala
,veras county. No clue to the murderers has
yet been obtained.

ATTEMPT TO EScAPE.-On Sunday evening
last, two of the prisoners confined in the
county Jail, Brown and Wilson, attempted to
escape. The prisoners are not locked up in
the cells during the day. but are allowed the
freedom of the corridor. When the door
was unlocked for the purpose of giving them
their supper, the two Aon'5res above mention
ed made desperate effort to pass the
officers, jailor Peek and Deputy Sheriff Bates.
and make their escape. A severe struggle
ensued in which the prisoners got the worst
of it, and were glad to relinquish their object
and return to their quarters. There are a
number of notoriously bad characters con-
fined in Jail at present. and too much caution
cannot be exercised by those having them in
charge.

LlvELY.-The stock of goods in a grocery
store in town was sold at auction, by the
Sheriff. the latter part of last week and the
fore part of this. The sale occupied several
days, and a large crowd was in attendance
during the whole time. As a generel thing
the goods brought iteir full value. Sheriff
Oliphant performed the duties of auctioneer
admirably, and it is owing to the fact that he
took the trouble to offer the articles in small
parcels, instead of dumping" them off, that
. heavy sacrifice was avoided.
