THE SMART POLICEMEN OF SAN FRAN.
cIsco.-The Bulletin Of Friday last illus.
trates the smartness of the Democratic po-
licemen OF San Francisco as follows: Two
policemen, one a special and the other a
regular officer, discovered a Chinaman on
First street Wednesday morning carrying a
sack and otherwise acting in a suspicious
and burg lirious manner. They pursued him,
but did not shoot at him. He got rid of his
sack and was caught. The officers then de-
termined that they would manage BY some
means to arrest the sack, and it was thought
necessary for both to 30 after it. But what
should they do with their prisoner in the
meantime ; A happy thought struck them.
The Chinaman was taken to lamp post
his arms put around it. and his wrists fas-
tened together with a pair of handouts.
They then left him. As soon as they were
out Of sigh. John climbed b. lamr-post, sat
on the cross-bar near the top, swung his
arms over the lantern, came down and fled.
The officers returned and found to their sur
prise, that the prisoner had escaped. They
think John pulled the lamp-post up, released
his hands and stuck it back in the ground.
Officer Rose. who was removed By the Com
never hi,ched his Celestial pris-
oners " lamp-p0sts.

DEATH OF W. B. HAMILToN-Wi,lia1n
| B. Hamilton, the veteran actor and theatri-
cal manager, died in London a few weeks
since. Mr.. Hamilton was literally veteran
| actor, having followed the profession from
childhood. He was born n England, but
came to the United States 81 years ago, and
was well and favorably known throughout
the country. He played for some time after
his arrival at Buttons, subsequently, went
to New Orleans, and was one of the pioneers
in "fat-boat theaircals " on the Missis-
sippi, having travelled with the Chapman
family IN their professional tours, which
have become historical, and married one of
the Chapman sisters. He came to this coun-
Try in 1850, opening at the Jenny Lind the
ater, which has since been converted into a
City Hall. and was for long time connect
ed with the San Francisco Hall, now Ma
suires's Opera House. For some time he
had been suffering from a cancer in the
tongue, which defed the Skill of physicians
in this city. and went to England in the
hope that he might there be more success
fully treated. His death occurred soon at er
his arrival. Mr.. Hamilton leaves widow,
two sons and daughter, all grown to ma
turity, residing in this city. He was fifty
seven years of ages. F. Chronicle.

SERIors ACCIDEST.-The Marysvilie APP
peal Of Friday last furnishes the following ::
Marshal NIGHTINGALE, while out hunting on
Wednesday met with serious accident. We
hear that it happened in this wise: Nish,in-
gill and companion were riding along the
road in a buggy, when the horse was stopped
to shoot passing game. When Nightingale
fired, the horse jumped suddenly and he was
thrown backward out of the buggy upon
stump, striking upon one of his hips. 1t
was reported about the streets Yesterday that
the injury received had caused paralysis OF
the lower limbs. This is doubtless correct,
but it is likely to prove only temporary. Our
Marshal must have been born on FRIDAY, as
he invariably meets with a new accident
about the time he RECEIVERS from an cid one.

Grant was nominated, that he was to be
elected by the votes of the negro States.

having been definitely settled that the State
had gone for Grant. \ large number Of Dem
oerats who have lost money on the result Of
the election are endeavoring to crawfsh out
Of their bets. The plan most generally
adopted is to have the bets garnished or at
tat he'd BY creditor C) Several large sums
deposited in the Bank Of California were at
tached or garnished yesterday, and We have
heard Of great many similar cases where
comparatively insignificant sums were in
volved. Matt. Soaring won two bets Of
81 500 each. both Of which were garnished
by parties who claimed to be creditors of
the man who bet with Soaring. One of
the cases was a claim of 81 ,375, made by
J. 7. Sullivan against Charles McCaskie.
who bet ST 500 with Soaring that the State
would go for Seymour a bet won by Eu-
gene L. Sullivan, also deposited in the Bank
Of California, was attached. We have heard
Of numerous similar cases in regard to bets
n sums of $40 to 500. Some Of these gar
,ishments may be legitimate. but the gen.
raj belief is that they are gotten up by col
usion for the purpose Of escaping the pay

rast to the above is the conduct of William

WHITE PINE.

Il Gold Bluff, Gold Lake, Kern Rivel
and Fraser River each had their seasons
of excitement; and here and there ma y
be found some of their surviving vic.
Tins; while still scarcer are they who
reaped any profit th erefrom. 1t is hardly
possible to conceive of q more ex-
travagant furore than that which at.

THE CASE OF JEFF DAvIs.-Richmond,
December 4.-1n the United States Court
to-day. Chief Justice Chase on the bench,
the argument was commenced on motion in
the indictment against JEFF Davis. Robert
Ould, his counsel, argued that the Four
teenth Amendment punished him BY dis
franchisement. This punishment was chosen
BY the voice Of the people, and was merci
fully substituted for the penalty of death and
confscation that the punishment of Davis
commenced on the date of adoption Of the
Fourteenth Article, AMI he cannot now be
punished in any other way that the will Of
the people expressed in the Constitution is
the law, against all former provisions made
for those who engaged in rebellion that the
Fourteenth Article is the latest expression
and intended expressly for the cases Of all
who engaged in the late rebellion. No man
can be punished twice for the same offense.
r. II. Dana, counsel for the United States,
said Guilds proposition was in the nature oil
things entirely new. II was unexpected to
The Government, and he expected also to
the Court.
The Chief Justice said the arguments Of

BASED on the Fourteenth Article, this line
If argument would be pursued. The time

unintentionally) implied that you
have not that confidence in the inten-
tions of the Executive of this State to
secure the ends Of good government
which should possess the minds of
loyal citizens, unless unquestionable
evidence has been exhibited of the
absence of such intentions. Ger
tainly this is calculated whether
intended or mott TO convey to the
public doubt of the fidelity of the
Executive-a doubt, the expression
of which is inconsistent with the
proper relations between that officer
and the people. Such an expression,
in itself, is one of the means by
which the power of the State Go
vernment is crippled, in its efforts to
secure law and order. I shall leave
no effort untried to maintain the
peace. I shall omit no effort to
bring to justice all offenders against
the laws. I shall make no political
opinions palliation for violation of
law. [ shall countenance no armed
organizations, unauthorized by law,
but shall do oil in my power to break
them up, where they exist. But I
shall remember that my power is
limited-that it is only within the
sphere laid down by the Constitution
and the laws that I must act. What
ever is proper, lawful and right for
me to do to maintain peace, secure
