RED WARRIOR EXTENSION. q mum
ber Of men residing outside of the county
have become interested in the mines of South
Fork district, and the indications are that
there will be lively times in that locality in
the spring. Z. A. Kelton, of the firm of
Kelton & Kellogg, Douglas City, visited the
district this week, with view of commencing
work on the second extension of the Red
Warrior, which is principally owned by par
ties residing in Trinity county. kelton says
he is willing to advance the money necessary
to thoroughly prospect this claim, and as the
rest of the ownere are men OF means, 1t Is
likely the work will be commenced at once,
and carried forward energetically.

A Man STRUCK BY A FALLING STAR
The London Morning Advertiser reports
that one of the falling stars struck waiter
named Pike, at Thompsons coffee house, in
Shoe Lane. Pike came to the editor of the
Advertiser, and said that while standing in
the middle of the street. between Shoe lane
and Salisbury court, with no one near him.
and gazing upward, he became aware of a
burning sensation in the neck, upon which he
tore at his neck CLOTH and the next moment
the burning substance passed down his left
breast. seorching the shirt in all its course
and inflicting three small but severe burns
on the flesh with one large wound. These
burns fsays the editor) we saw. but being of
a skeptical and matter offact turn we sug
gested fusee or ucifer this, however. was
entirely negatived. and we felt ourselves un.
duly increduous upon further examination,
as no substance whatever could be found IN
the voung's man clothing, and he was certain
ly by no means likely to inhiet such an injury
to himself for the purpose of mere sensation.
A medical man who saw him yesterday
thinks it a scald by fused metal or sulphur,
and the young man was decidedly IN state
of considerable suffering twenty-four hours
from the accident.

ABsTINENcE OF ROMAN WoMEN-The an
cient Romans. in some respects. were in ad-
vance of the present age in their practical
physiological knowledge. This was specially
the case in the habits of the women They
seemed to he fully aware of the fact that a
hardy race must be born of healthful mothers
and.consequenily any usage or practice likely
to affect injuriously the health of women was
viewed by the State with susr icion. The
muscles were Systematically educated Ere
quent bathing was required by law. Large
lighthouses were established. which were
places of common resort. For several centur-
les of the best ages Of Rome, it was criminal
offence for Roman mother to drink intoxi-
eating liquors. At the time of our Saviour
on earth, and for long period after, it was
considered Infamous for Roman to taste
wine. For guest tosoffer glass of wine to
one of the women of the household it was
looked upon as deep insult, as it implied a
want Of chastity on her part. History re.
cords several instances where women was put
to death by their husband because they smelt
of +" Tometum." The consequence of this
physical training and abstinece from all in
toxicating liquor was, that the Romans were
noted for their endurance and strength
Had we the same habits, with our superior
Christian civilization, WIS should astonish the
world with physical health and strength

Condition of Affairs in the south.

The actions and public expressions of the
rebels of the South compells loyal men to be
lleve that there is no longer any reasonable
ground to hope that they have learned wis
even the slightest PREPARATION for the injury
inflicted on the Government. Instead of ac-
knowledging themselves beaten and yielding
to the just demands of an outraged yet len
lent Government they turn sullenly away,
affirming that they have done no wrong, have
| no apologies to offer and no attonements to
make. Meanwhile they have iuaugurated
reign of terror an1 are deliberately carrying
on system of tyranny throughout the South,
which, for atrocity, stands unparalleled i'll
the annals of human depravity, and will
leave stain upon the history Of our country
and prove disparagement TO the civilization
of the century in which we i've. Owing
their very lives to the leniency of the Govern
ment, they in turn exhibit no mercy for
those who are loyal to the country. From
North Carolina to Texas Union soldiers are
shot and murdered while standing guard and
nobody is punished. though the murderers
are well known. Citizens who stemmed the
waves Of passion and remained faithful in
their allegiance to the National Government
in the hour Of its tribulation, are prosecuted,
malirned and hunted down MS though they
were savaces or wild beasts of the forest and
their defenseless families are iarassed and
insulted bv brutal ,coundrels whose manifold
crimes death upon the gibbet would but par
tally expiate Freedmen who fought for
their liberty, and to assist in preserving the
territorial integrity of the Union. are not al
lowed to peacefully enjoy the blessings OF
freedom, but are remanded back to servitude
and slavery by the decisions of rebel judges.
Others are prevailed upon to labor for their
old masters by promises of remuneration for
their services, and are afterwards defrauGed
out of their dues. aud sometimes murdered in
case they persist in their just demands.
Such, we regret to say is the state of az
fairs existing in the South ard it is evident
which the late rebels have deliberately
adopted and intend to pursue for the purpose
of excluding loyal men from their midst. and
to keep alive the spirit of treason until a
favorable opportunity occurs to strike ano-
ther blow at the Government.
The responsibility of thwarting the trea
sonable schemes of these men. and correcting
the outrageous abuses which they have inau
gurated, rests upon Congress. Laws must
be enacted and enforced which will COMPEL
their SUBMISSION and cause them to respect
the authority Of the Government and the
rights of every citizen, white and black. If
Congress faltors, and fails to discharge the
high duties imposed upon it by the exigen
cies of the situation, then will the best blood
of the nation have been made to flow for
naught, and anarchy, persecution and civil
broils will reign where law, order, peace and
happiness should sit cnthroned.

heavy at the base but very short and re-

dull, but suggests things unutterable-an
expression Of lateht power and devilishness,
which the general appearance of the animal
confirms. The muzzle is black and ugly, the
wide nostrl arguing large breathing ap
