Go IT, YE CRIPPLEs. - The Owyhee
Avalanche of November 9TH, says: 1t was
announced on Sunday last that Monsieur De
Henne, celebrated acrobat, who sports one
wooden leg, was to walk tight rope stretched
across Washington street, at an elevation Of
thirty feet, from the City Hall to Grete's
Bakery. At the hour appointed crowds
fiocked to the locality named to witness the
performance; windows, housetopS, and every
conceivable perch were pressed into service.
After circulating among the crowd for the
purpose of collecting some currency, the
wooden-leg monsieur fearlessly stepped out
On the rope and made his way to the center,
where light stove was handed up to him, il
which he made a fire and cooked {" a bite to
eat to the great amusement OF the auditors;
after which he finished his journey amid the
plaudits OF the crowd.

VIOLENT ASSAULT ON A CATHOLIC PRIEST
The Bangor (Me) Wing of the 3lst ult.

VIOLENT ASSAULT ON A CATHOLIC PRIEST
The Bangor (Me.) Wing of the 3lst ult
says:
On Friday evening Father Vetrcmile. Cath
Ole priest in this city, was nearly killed by
an assassin. About half past five O'Clock, a
boy at work for Father Vetromilc went to
the stable, which is used as a woodshed, to
get some shavings. He Immediately re-
turned, saying he felt a mans foot in the
shayings. He was laughed at BY the servants
for his tinidity, and one OF them took light
and went out to see if any one was there
She saw no one, but they heard noise in
the loft overhead. They returned to the kit
chen, and Father Netromile coming home,
they told him man was in the stable. TAX
ing light, he went out; and, first shutting
the door TO prevent an escape, started to 90
Up ladder leading to the loft As soon as
he reached the top, and before he could see
anything there, he was struck a murderous
bow by some one concealed there, which
laid open the scalp, causing a most profuse
flow Of blood. He gave the alarm and got
into the house, when the villain, whoever it
was, made his escape by jumping through
the window, taking sash and all in his
course, and running down through the gar
den toward Hancock street. Father Vetro-
mile is positive he heard the report Of a |
pistol at the time he was struck, but an ex-
of the wound by DR.. McRuer |
showed it to be a blow from some blunt in
and not dangerous. AS no other |
person heard any pistol, he is probably mis-
taken about that. The suspicion is that the |
assault was committed by some person who |
had concealed himself with intent to enter
aud rob the house in the night, but fin ling
himself discovered, took this method to effect
lis escape.

HEARD THE n Ews.-The Frontier Index

HEARD THE NEws.-The Frontier Index
Democratic paper of the Brick Pomeroy
style, shows by its issue of November 9th
that it has heard the result of the Presi-
Dental election. It says:
We have endeavored by every means pos
sible to obtain accurate and full returns from
the Presidential election, and the result is
mass of conglomerated rumors, out of which
We decypher New York $1,000 majority for
Seymour and Blair. Kentucky and Mary
land of course gave a large Democratic ma
jority. The natural conclusion is that Grant
and Colfax are elected, though the silence
that follows this election is like the dead
caln. that prerades just before storm. The
clouds of revolution are lowering. On with
it. Freedom to the white race. Off with
the crown of the military dictator-Grant
The sooner the tocsin of war is again sound
ed the better. The next will not be rebellion.
1t will be revolution under the old flag. We
will bet quarter that Horse Useless Grant
is so drunk to-day that he has to lean upon
his sword. and the sword is in the bunghole |
of a rye barrel. Whisky bloated military |
dictator Of the monarchy Of America-late
United States.

"LET JEEMEs Go."-The Land We

lady whose sweetheart was in the Fiji

The SMALLPOX IN SAN FRANCIsCo.-

THE SMALLPOX IN SAN Francisco
Referring to the progress and virulence of thi:
disease in Saa Francisco, the Oakland News
says: A score or more week are carried
away, and many times that number are at
tackled with the disease, who, if recovering
are for lifetime marked with its terrible eff
fects. 1t is said that vaccination, not even
once having the nalady. is sure preventive
for it. Those who have recovered from it
once have been attacked again, and in one
instance death occurred from the second
attack. A terrible cruelty, equivalent almost
to execution, attends those who are discover
ed as having the disease. They are dragged
off to the pest-house unless they have pow
erful friends to protect them, and then, says
DR.. Rowell, two cut of eve:y five die. This
is most horrible revelation, and disgraccful
both to the medical fraternity and the au-
thorities of the city. Can these do nothing
to suppress the ravases of the deadly malady?

A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

When we lock the stable door after
the horse has been stolen" we have
the right to whatever of consolation
there may be in that other adage, that
"It is never too late to mend" So far
as naturalization frauds could produce
an evil influence upon our public fairs,
they have doubtless been exerted IN the
late elections but we hail with hope
full pleasure anything that promises q
better state Of things in the future. The
eyes Of all good citizens are turned to
Congress for a substantial remedy for
the loose and dangerous system now in
vogue; and without such legislative
action we can only place our hopes for
reform upon the awakened honesty and
caution of those with whom is vested
the power to convert foreigners into full
privileged American citizens. 1t would
seem that one Judge, at least, has taken
a step toward the needed reform for,
says the San Francisco Times Of the |
10th instant:
Judge Hoffman has adopted some good |
rules in regard to naturalization cases in the
United States District Court. Their sub
stance is as follows: that application for
must be made hereafter on
some Saturday in term !; that every applicant
must furnish the Clerk his name in full, his
residence, the names and residences of his
and file his declaration of inten-
tons; that the names and residences of all
the parties, and the date of each transaction,
shall be duly recorded in book provided for
the purpose, which shall be open to inspec-
ton at all times, in the Clerks office; that
the names of applicants must be registered
two days before the hearing of the applca-
ton; that foreign born citizens must pro-
luce their certificates of naturalization in
Court; that the right of the applicant to citi-
,enship may be contested by any citizen who
shall call witnesses to disprove the statements
If the inchoate citizen and that the sigma
ure of the Judge, with his decision, shall be
appended to the record in every case. With
'uch rules as these it will be impossible for
fraudulent naturalizations to occur, and if .
hey were applied to, and carried out strictly,
Il every Court, the press would not be called
ipon to denounce such impositions as dis
raced the recent election. =

LIvINGsToN's BUILDING RAIsED.-Strat-
ton Brothers completed yesterday morning
the rather difficult task of raising and level
ing LivingSton's building at the southwest
corner of Battery and California streets.
The structure is three-story brick, about
sixty feet front on Battery and one hundred
feet front on California street. By the action
of the earthquake the western end, and espe-
cially the northwest corner Of the building,
was settled twenty-one inches below its orr
ginal level. This result was produced with
much less damage to the walls than might
have been expected. The Battery street
front did not settle at all. Strattcn Brothers
contracted to raise the building to its original
level, and for the purpose broke the walls and
placed their hydraulic apparatus in position
under them. The delicate point was to so
apply the power that one cistern would raise
twenty-one inches, while others would raise
but half that distance and vet others remain
almost stationary. The object was accom-
plished by partially cutting off the supply of
water from some of the cylinders. The
cracks in the walls were closed up as the
building found its level. Nothing remains
now to be done except to rebuild the founda-
ton walls.-S. Z. Chronicle.

violent that the twins were at one time on
the point of fighting a duel.

DESPERATE DoINGs "A rumor is cur.
rent on the streets as we go to press that a
desperate fight has taken place between the
citizens and roughs of Bear River City, be-
yond Salt Lake. The report is that the
citizens drove the roughs from the town,
who organized, armed, returned and cap
tured the place, killing several persons and
destroying much property. The citizens
then rallied, retook the town, killed a large
number Of the roughs and dispersed the rest.
