sIFoR NEW ORLEANS On capt
]. Stnt Meals great achievement, the
peerless Richmond, the most graceful and
elegant steamer in the Western world.
will certainly be here tomorrow en- route
to New Orleans. The extreme length OF
her hull is $40 feet; breadth of beam, 90
feet; extreme width, "a feet; depth of hold,
feet, and has a carrying capacity of $500
tons. The extreme length of the cabin is
304 feet, and contains 20 state-rooms of un-
usual capacity, being 9x12 feet in size,
forming elegant parlor bedrooms, and are
most luxuriantly furnished. She has also
a cabin exclusively for colored people,
equal in appointments to the best stea-I
mers in the West; also, nursery and other
accommodations. She has also fine OBJ
servatory on her hurricane deck over the
ladies cabin, capable of accommodating 30
ladies with a fine prospective view of the
surrounding country and scenery as she
glides down the mighty rivers. The Rich
mond is a regular to,U pressure steamboat
with immense power. Her cylinders are
90 inches in diameter and have 10 feet
length of stroke, and is positively exempt
from all danger of explosion. She has two
wheels AZ feet in diameter, with 26 buckets
IA feet long and 30 inches deep, which, with
A6f pOnderOuS macnluefy,TWue give 0ef
necessarily great speed. The boat is fur
nished throughout with princely magnifi-
cence and the most opulent grandeur. 'kh
The officers of the boat are worthy to
command SO fine steamer. Capt. j. Slut
Neal, her chief owner, is a veteran steam
boat man., and has rendered himself not
only immensely popular, but has achieved
extraordinary snccessa !, Capt. John s.
Voolfolk is her chief clerk, formerly clerk
of the Great Atlantic, and more recently
commanding the big Gray Eagle, in the
New Orleans and Vicksburg trade. Her
chief freight clerk is Robt. P. Lodge, of
Madison, and long occupying a similar
position on the Great Indiana. They are
worthy associates of the peerless COM
mander, ]. Slut Neal. The entire crew, both
cabin and deck, with all the officers. pilots,
engineers, &C., have been selected with
special view to the interests of shippers,
and the comfort of passengers, and we pre-
dict for Capt. ]. STINT Neal, and his beauti-
full floating palace, brilliant career.
The great Indiana, Capt. Rube Neal, with
Charley Schultze in the Office, also may be
expected, for New Orleans to-day. She
and her officers are too well known to need
commendation. @ @s79s5 ;aira -

Down ON GERMANs.-The White Cloud
CHIEF, Radical paper of the strictest sect,
abiding to the recent Topeka Convention of
German citizens of Kansas, and their pro-
nounced opposition to prOhibitory liquor laws
and Sunday laws pays them the following left
handed compliment. 1t speaks of them as
A class of men who have been brought up to
disregard the Sabbath as sacred day, come
here from foreign land professedly in search
Of more perfect freedom in doing this, instead
of adopting the customs and social habits of
our people, they seek to establish here the Gus
toms of the land from which they fled, and to
overturn things which nine-tenths of the Amer
lean people, or larger proportion, have been
wont to reverence as holy, and to tear down
all barriers to that hideoup vice, drunkenness.
They do not believe in the Sabbath therefore,
they could choose any other day for their ca
rousals, all days being equal to them, or they
might go away quietly and hold their social
gatherings. No; that does not fill their idea
of civil liberty. Being unbelevers, they wish
toexhibit the fact to the world They wish to
show that they have the right to outrage the
feelings of religious people, by holding their
revels in the face of the public; swilling their
beer, singing their maudlin, bacchanalian songs,
dancing and Waiting, where everybody can
see and hear-perhaps in the very shadow of
some Christian church.

A CORRECT VIEw.-In an able article on
the system of education generally practiced in
the United States, the New York Nation says /:
Our college curricula do not need less classics
and metaphysics and more natural science, but
they need more of all three The great fault
of American education is its superfciality.
Our common school system is defective in this
very way. A great many people are educated
a very little perhaps with the idea that if, like
Mickey Frees father, they can get their heads
and shoulders out they can easily extricate
the rest of their bodies Our boys get Just
enough of education to fit them for "going into
store, ~ and our girls enough to enable them
to misspeI loye-letters and read novels. "a
little Latin and less Greek" and yet less
science, and a large amount of pretence and
selfassertion, make up generally the acquire
ments of our candidates for the degree of
Bachelor of Arts. Two or three years of
contact with the world are generally sufficient
to rub off these superfcialities, and our college
graduates are then much the same as men who
have had none of their advantages unless.
indeed, it be an advantage to know how use
less cur college education is Irf

SHocKING.-The Wala WalIa Statesman
says the condition of the Insane Asylum under
the patronage Of Washington Territory is Q
disgrace to common humanity, and the unfor
tunate inmates are treated most shamefully
It charges that female patients are subjected
to the lust of the keepers, and asserts that one
of these wretched women, hopelessly insane,
recently gave birth to child, whose paternity
is directly traced to an official connected with
the Asylum.

MARK HIM.-We see that one Charles e.
Fisher has left Portland for California, doubt
less attracted there by the late Democratic
triumphs in that State, in the expectation of
benefit therefrom, as he claims now to be a
Democrat. This Fisher published the Red
Bluff Beacon in 1861, and approved of all the
Democratic newspaper suspensions, all the ar
bitrary arrests and imprisonment of Demo-
Gratis, and all of the infamous acts of tyranny
which were perpetrated, by the powers that
were in those days, upon Democrats generally
He prayed that the editors of the California
Express, of the Jacksonville (Ogn,) Gazette
and ofone or two other Democratic newspapers
on this coast might be chung to the nearest
post" and their printing Offices destroyed
He is Missouri Yankee-that meanest of all
human species-and viii sell himself or his
friends or his party at any time for less pieces
If he cannot get more-of copper than Judas
received of silver for betraying the Saviour of
Man, We hope our party brethren in Califor-
MIA will beware of this Fisherman after any
sort Of spoils

HILL BEAcHEY's RoUTE.-On Wednesday
evening Mr. Chas. J. Bernstiel, merchant Of
this city, returned from a business visit to San
Francisco. He went and returned by Hill
Beachey's and the Central Pacific Railroad
route, and speaks most highly of it, in respect
to speed, accommodations, treatment by drivers
and agents; and in general terms, as the very
best route to travel between here and Califor-
MA or Nevada The trip is now made in from
six to seven days, but Mr.. Beachey will have
things so perfected by next season that he will
be able to put passengers over the route from
idaho City to San Francisco IN four days
Beachey says he ariH do it, and those who
know the man need no other assurance that it
will be done. He is not the man to try and fail

DEMOCRATIC GAINs.-In the st. Louis Re
publican of October 9th we find dispatches
giving information of Democratic gains in the
late general and local elections in Indiana,
Iowa and New Jersey, which the Overland dis
patches failed to mention In the county cleo
tions in Indiana the Democrats carried Allen
county by 1000, a large gain; Putnam county
by $50, a gain of 500; Bartholomew county by
500 to 200, a large gain; and johnson and
Hancock counties by handsome gains In
Iowa the Democrats carried Dubuque City
by $50 majority, large gain; and material
gains were reported throughout the State. In
the Newark New Jersey city election, the
Radical loss was over 1000 The State is
pretty sure to go Democratic at the next
election.

CALIFORNIA ELECTION.-Full returns are
not yet received Of the late California cleo
tons for Supreme Judge and Superintendent
of Public Instruction. The vote of the State
is materially less than that of the election of
last lnonfh In San Francisco the whole vote
was 1861; Sprague, Dem. for Judge has
1867 majority; Fitzgerald, Dem, Superin-
tendent, 1852 majority. The Democratic
county ticket is elected by the following major
tiles: McKinstry, County Judge. ], 178; Wright,
Probate Judge, l,709; Browne, Police Judge,
l,24O. Ainador county gives Sprague and
Fitzgerald from 80 to 40 majority; TuoIumne,
about $50 Democratic majority Yuba county,
Democratic majority of about 90, and Bliss,
Dem, elected County Judge; Suffer county
SO Democratic majority, and Kiger, Dem,
elected County Judge. The Southern counties
expected to return heavy Democratic maori-
tles. The Radicals carried Sacramento coun-
y Dy about 400 majority: Calaveras, by $50;
Napa, by Is; Nevada, by 400; San JOAQUIN,
Dy 2OO. The chances are that the Democrats
have again carried the State. There was
great deal OF scratching on both State and
county tickets in San Francisco.

T. S. A dispatch from San Franaisco, Oct,
18TH, received by Portland paper of the 10Th,
which came BY last evenings stage, says:
"Ihe election returns received from twenty
nine counties show a majority for Sprague
over Currey of 1,051. and for SWEET over Fitz-
gerald 8. The remaining counties will un-
doubleday give Democratic maiorities. and
there is no doubt of the election of Sprague
and Fitzgerald" tla IT. -
The Sacramento Union of the 10Th also con-
cedes the election of Sprague and Fitzgerald
Itsays the Radicals have lost the election by
criminal apathy. Let Democrats now rejoice.

DECREASING The Sacramento Union pub
fishes table of the number of votes polled at
each election in that city since 1851, from
which it appears that the vote of the 10Th inst.
was, with the exception of the vote at three
merely local elections, the smallest ever cast,
viz: 2,l84. The largest vote, 1898, was cast
in the Presidential election of 1852; the next
largest, 1900, in 1856; and the next 4,235,
for Governor, in 1853 The vote for Presi-
dent in 1850 was 1888, for Governor last
month, 1854.

fragrant OUTRAGE.-Major Ramsey, of
the Second U, S. Artillery, stationed at Fort
Point, below San Francisco, lately instigated
"a squad of the men of his command to inhu-
manly fog one of the corps, for an alleged in
suit to q servant in his household. The sufferer
was forced to desert after the fogging. Gen.
Mcdowell has promised to look into the out
rageous proceeding, but the chances are that
he will not punish thetransgressing officer who
melted the men to the lynching. Doubtless he
will soundly punish the man for desertion-
Notwithstanding he was driven from the garri-
son by Major Ramsey's act-if the poor wretch
shall be retaken. Mcdowell himself counseled
or approved mob law in 1866 in San Francisco.

MURDER BY INDIANS.-FrOm the Boise
City Statesman of Thursday we learn that an
other shocking outrage has been perpetrated
by the savages who infest the Owyhee country
Last Monday morning Sergeants Nichols and
/ Denoille, and the wife of the latter, left Camp
Lyon in four-horse ambulance for Fort Boise
When about nine miles on the road they were
fired upon by Indians from behind rocks De
noble, who was driving, was mortally wounded,
but Nichols was not aware of the fact until he
cried MY God, am shot," and fell from the
wagon, dragging the reins with him. Nichols
meantime fired twice at the Indians The
horses ran at full speed for half a mile, when
one of the Wheelers became entangled in the
dragging reins. and stopped the team Nichols
leaped out and told Mrs Denoille torun with
him and hide behind rocks near by. The poor
woman was almost frantic, and insisted upon
going back to where her husband was The
Indians were only about 800 yards off, and
soon captured her. Nichols hid behind rock,
was fired at once while there by an Indian,
and returned the fire, but, he thinks, without
effect He finally worked his way from rock
to rock until he reached Sucker creek. and
thence to Carson's Ranch, which he reached
Invested of all clothes but his pants and shirt.
The savages stripped Denoille's body, dragged
it off the road, and burned the ambulance and
contents. The murdered man had in his peck
cts a fine gold watch and about $1,000 green
backs. The last Nichols saw of Mrs Denollle
she was in the hands of the Indians He says
three other parties were attacked the same
day in the same spot, but all escaped by hiding
behind the rocks about there. One of the per-
sons attacked, Mr.. Hardy, had his horse shot
under him. Nichols reached Boise City by
stage of Tuesday from Owyhee. b. stage of
word came that party was pre-.
barring to leave Silver City to try to recover
Mrs. Denoille, to bring in her husbands body,
md punish the savages who committed the
iendish outrage. We earnestly hope the I'M
ortunate woman shall be rescued from the
clutches of her inhuman captors, and that
heir worthless lives shall quickly pay the for
cit of their atrocious acts.
