FLORA MCFLIMsEY IN ICoURT.-A
young lady in New York, very dimly des-
ignated as "the daughter of professional
gentleman well known for his advertise
ments," lately lost the principal part Of
her wardrobe by fire. The property war
insured, and claim was made for dam
ages to the amount of S21, ,000 The In
surance company resisted the demand as
enormous, and the case being carried into
a court a list was made out, under the di
rection of the young lady herself, of the
various items. This schedule is publish
ed in full in the ''New York Herald
and is curiosity of legal literature in,
deed The schedule would fill more than
q column in our paper. The estimated
values are of course only those of the ar
ticles when burned, after some wear, and
the original cost of the wardrobe is stated
at $50, 900. The largest single entry is
for white satin dress, with founces oi
deep point d Alencon, worth 81, 800; and
there is also a blue satin dress trimmed
with Brussels lace, valued at $780,
There are in the catalogue of velvet, and
twenty-four Of poplin, cashmere and mus
lin, beside extra skirts bodices and jack,
cts. No jeWelry appears in the list; but
there is bewildering variety of fans
parasols, work-boxes, card cases, and sim.
liar costly trifes. 1t appears by the marks
on some of the articles that the young la.
dy's name was Fanny, and not Flora
but she must be at least relative of the
McF Flimsey family. q

ARE WE TO HAVE ANOTHER Civil
WARS it really possible says the n.
~. Sunday Times, that any man or set OF
men can propose to have another civil war
in this country rather than submit quietly
to the popular decision. at e.polls We
do not like to believe it, and yet the evil
is notimprobable. American people have
had enough of war and earnestly desire
peace. They do not care, it may be,
which political party holds the reins OF
power provided it acquire possession Of
those reins through fair expression Of
the popular viii at the ballot-box but
they will permit no party whatever tc
make farce of the election--to seize the
reins of authority by aseoap d'etdt, aud
then proclaim themselves the chosen rep
resentatives of the people. We cannot
think that any body of public men, pro
Tossing to be patriots, viii dare to under
take an act so audaciously defiant of tn,
laws and the Constitution of the Union
but should they do it, they must be awar,
that civil war will be the consequence
and on their guilty heads be the respon
sibility

According to Proclamation just issued
by the Governor, the 29th day of this
month will be observed as day of Pub
lie Thanksgiving and Praise throughout
Oregon. Our redoubtable Governor gets
off the following grandilOquent sentences !;
'sIf We have saEered the horrors Of Civil War
Iif we have had desolated homes. and the vail Of
orphans, and widows tears, we have country s
honor preserved, nation redeemed, and the ina
lienabls rights Of man established"
That the Civil War has preserved our
"eountry's honor" is very questionable.
We can't see it IN that light. The terri
torsul integrity Of the Union has been
pTeserved-and that is about ALL Is il
honorable to treat conquered people as
serfs Is it honorable, is it constitutional
to tax people and yet deny them the
fright of representation Z ''George L., the
Isneezer," says "natiOn has been redeem.
ed" Somehow here again we can't ses
lit We think a nation has been enslaved
by Capitalization of power and by ma
ftieaai debt ofabOut i've billions Of dollars
That's what we think. George L. say
that the inalienable rights of man hav,
been established. Ifhe had said that tn,
inalienable rights of the nigger had beel
Established we should agree with him
The niger now is away up head-he i
the big toad in the puddle; and the civi
war put him there.
Nevertheless, let us be thankful we ar
no worse of. Our George L. tells US t
sconsecrate ourselves anew to liberty an
/, to God" Very good advice, but some
how we should feel more like following
if our noble Governor would only be
little more circumspect himself. IF
would only obey the ten commandment
a little better himself, we shouldn't fee
as VIC do now, that he gave this advic
more for buncombe than because he fee
its Importance personally considered Pc

QUAKINa.-The Radical patriots, who
are fattening of the generosity of trait
or, says the Mountain Democrat, are
quaking in their boots. They have had
a happy time in plundering the Govern
ment and supporting venal newspapers to
keep them in power, for the last Eve
years. But the guillotine, at last, looms
up before them in unpleasant distinctness.
1t is horrible vision, and constantly in
their sight. The President will be Iusti-
fed in setting it in vigorous operation
Following the example of the little traitor
Avery will only make matters worse for
them. They swore, but little while
ago, that the Administration is The Gov
ernment, and now they ought 70 have toe
much self-respect to admit that they are
perjured scoundrels, by repudiating their
oath If the Administration is the Gov
ernment, to defy its authority is treason
and as they insist on the Presidents max
ing "treason odious," would it be ungen
erous in him to try the experiment or
themselves 1t would be next to impossi
bic to find more deserving subjects.

HoRsE SHAvINa.-0n Saturday, says
the Oakland News, there was = case in
the Police Court involving the ownership
Of horse. The man who possessed the
animal had him for several years. The
real owner, however, recognized the
horse, and sWore that on one shoulder q
certain brand could be found. On inspec-
ton nothing could be discovered, and the
hair lay perfectly natural, as if it had
never been disturbed. Notwithstanding,
the person claiming him sent for a razor
and piece of soap, and proceeded tc
shave the hair from the place where the
brand had been put, when the outlines Of
the proper letters were clearly visible
If this idea we're always acted upon II
such cases, many lost or stolen horse.
might be recovered. The one in question
had been branded ten years before, yet
after this long interval the animal wa.
clearly identified.

SIGNIFICANT HIsToRIcAL FAcTs.-
1t is fact that the Democratic party has
always sustained every incumbent of the
presidential chair who has defended the
Constitution and the anti Democrats
have heartily opposed all such. The on
ly three Presidents ever elected by the
anti-Democrats were Harrison, Taylor and
Lincoln. Each died in their Presiden-
tial Office, and were succeeded Dy Vice
Presidents elected by the same party
In each case the anti-Democrats quarrel
ed with the Vice Presidents because they
would insist on being guided by the Cons
titution; and they each, in turn, had tc
throw themselves for support on the
Democratic party. These are significant
historical facts.
