By letter received in this city from Den.
yer, Colorado we learn that on the 18th in
slant II. Rosebrook, formerly of Chicago,
murdered his two children in Central City,
then took quantity of chloroform, with
evident design of destroying his own life
When the letter was written, the 18th, he
was not dead, but in partially insane condi
tion, from the effects of the poison. Rose
brook was formerly builder in this city,

at the lottery business. He accordingly
announced a stupendous gift concert scheme,
with an unprecedented number of valu
able prizes. het tempting bait was caug-
at eagerly, and in a few weeks Rosebrook
had sold one hundred thousand tickets
When the drawing took place the manager
SO managed the affair that he drew all the
prize tickets himself Loud mutterings of
dissatisfaction soon came to his ears, and
finally he was threatened with litigation, but
by presenting a bold front and a revolver

SLAUGHTER OF THE INNoCENTS.-Comm
ing upon the fact that seven hundred and
forty.seven children, under two years of age,
died last year in San Francisco the Health
Officer says;
This large army of innocence, beauty and
promise swept down by the inexorable hand
of death, ere life had scarce begun, and with
them all the bright hopes and fond anticipa-
tons of parental ambition. is not without
causes, which in many instances might be
removed or materially mitigaed. Our eli
mate the whole year round, is undoubtedly
as healthy rs that of any city in the world
but it needs to be properly understood, and
its sudden changes guarded against with
appropriate clothing. Adults make no mis-
take in this particular ladies and gentlemen
take morning exercise in light, summer
goods, while if their walk or ride is proiong
ed or deferred to past meridian, winter
clothing, furs, shawls, capes, cloaks, and
overcOats are in requisition. But not so with
those little victims of fashion. 1t is nothing
uncommon to see the father, dressed in fan
mel under clothing from neck to heels. heavy
cloth pants, vest, coat, and uyercOat, taking
his children out for an airing, dressed in the
height of fashion-with plaids and p mites
which have suffered fashions amputation
above the knee, and leaving the lower ex-
trcmities unprotected save by light cotton
hose and cloth CATERS. These little loved
ones look very pretty, but by being thus fool.

concomitant results-diptheria or Group
they often, despite the doctors skill become
silent monitor to the parent of the wrong
done them. Improper diet, both as to quail
ity and quantity. is another fruitful source
of disease and death among children. Swill-
milk has had its share in this work Of infant
mortality, but, thanks to a discerning Press
and public opinion, not the law, a marked
improvement has been wrought in this article
in the babies bill of fare during the past
year; but there is still room for further im
provement. Mothers cannot be too watchtul

overcrowding the brain, trying to,make a
little man or woman cut of a baby, kills
numbers every year, who would, if left to the
pure end simple dictates Of nature, grow to

natural parental pride to see the children
precocious and smart, this stufing of the
stomach and brain with food and ideas fit
only for maturer years, together with fash
ionable exposure, 20 far to roll up this infant
mortality, which it is our painful duty to
record.

THE INDEPENDENT Press. When the
Union and Bulletin were laboring to defeat
the Union nominee for Governor, they
quoted freely from the Examiner 1t is our
turn now. The Examiner of the 18th instant
says:
We stated, repeatedly, during the recent
canvass, that the Sacramento Union and
San francisco Bulletin were on trial. In
the September election, they basely betray
ed their party allegiance and work d., not
directly and avowedly-tor they had not
the manliness for that-but Indirectly, to
elect the Democratic ticket. This they did
not from any love of Democracy or its prin-
ciples-fOr they have none for them.
1t was not therefore, from any love of De-
mocracy that the Bulletin opposed the elec
ton Of Gorham. 1t was because the propri-
etors could not rule their party to their own
selfish ends. They went into the prelimi
nary fight for the nominations with as much
zeal as any of the strictly partisan press
They called Justify for their cOterie of friends
to take part in the primaries. They publish
ed list of some four thousand names in
this city, invoking the faithful to make the
fight against Gorham in the "Union" or
ganizaton. There can be no doubt that had
Bidwell been nominate0-a man wholly in.
terror TO hlm In capacity, IN no manner
superior in honesty, and in every way con-
cordant with him in political sentiment
the Bulletin and Union would have support
ed the ticket even though they could not get
a slice of the State printing. But defeated
in Convention, they boted the ticket, and ,
on purely personal grounds, determined, il
factious opposition could accomplish it, to
defeat their own party. How much they
contributed to this end it is not our purpose
to weigh. The Bulletin will find
1t hard to make its benighted followers see it
IN that light. The result is a crushing and
overwhelming blow to its own arrogance,
profiigacy and want of principle. 1t places
it out of the pale of all parties 1t brands it
as political guerrilla and brings it to be
regarded with suspicion if not with absolute
abhorrenee. Three groans, then, from all
parties for the recreant, treacherous and un-
principled Bulletin.
