views on the result OF the late election in
Virginia, together With some Interesting
statements in connection with efforts to
GINA aud the South, under Republican

the following extracts
The Virginia election excites hopes
and fears, neither of which may be rea-

neither principles, party, nor caudi-
dates in that election, aud the support.

DEATHoF The OLDEST ISuABITANT'
The Oldest Indian in the Shosnone
tribe, and probably one Of the Oldest
beings that lived, died last week near
Noniezuma, in Patterson District. Ac,
cording TO the statement Of many OF
his tribe, he lived moons enough to
make l26 years Of age His body was
found ia the ceurer of Cave Valley,
near the roadside, by a traveller. The
abdomen aud entraiIs were completely
gone, having been deyoured by crickets
and grasshoppers, the body being COW

found This old Indian had gained the
nppeilntion by the white settlers of the

| THB QUAKER INDIAN AsEENrs.-O
their manner Of dealing, and as an il
lastration Of their success, q CORES
| pondent at Omaha writes under date o
July 18th, to an Eastern paper, as fol
lows:
Samuel W. Janin had a most trying
case recently. Last Winter, before he
came out, a white man started for the
Pawnees, but never returned. His
friends tracked him to their settlement,
but could find nothing Of him, and as
no evidence could be found of his hav-
ing been killed, the matter was for the
time dropped. A little more than a
week ago, however, his body was found
sunk in a Like, pierced with bullets,
and an Indian arrow sticking in his
mouth. His friends. exasperated at
this, made up strong party, we'll
armed, and started out to execute ven
geance on the Indians. Samuel heard
of it, aud started too, and induced the
party to return aud let HIM try first TO
fad the offenders and bring them to
Justice according 10 law.
He then called the chiefs of the Paw,
uees together, stated the case to them,
and told them that if mn Indian was
wrouged he would do all in his power
to obtain justice, and now that the
white man had been killed, he was
obliged 10 DO the same, aud that be had
been instructed TO withhold any more
supplies from their tribe until they
should give up the men who committed
he murder. They made speeches, and
in Justification said that their men bad
been killed and no notice taken of IT
but Samuel assured them that il
should not be so whilst be was superin-
tendeut To his great satisfaction,
hey notified him by IA messenger the
I-At day, that there were eight men I'M !
,licared and they were prepared to give
hem up TIE officers were sent up aud !
he men brought down and lodged IN |
All They had their hearing yesterday,
md were rem.nded for trial at the next
,ourt. Immediately after they were
.iven up Samuel had their goods, I
mounting 10 some 81 800 worth, dis
ributei among them The goods were
eceived from Washington, packed in [
oxes. aud the custom of the suPerin-
end-uts heretofore had been TO uhpack !
he be Xes here and TO replace their cen
anis wirh an Inferior article, and sell
he original goods for twice the amount
4quirei to replace them, and pocket
he balance. Samuel took the goods
uopenei to the reservations, called the
hiefs together aid opened them IN
leir presence, and had them distributed
lst as they were received. 1t gave the
lGitns great satisfaction. They said
had never been done before.

! WBIrE Prs MATTERS tha
Mining Review for the week ending
July 3lst, in the White Pine News, VI
ex,rac, the following:
The suspension of operations by few
mines last week has been followed this
! by a number, and our bullion shipmen,
has fallen to S40,s6l II. The strike
and the action of the strikers has
caused this. Not a mine would lie idle
for a single day but for the menaces OF
the Miners Union. OF this state Of af-
fairs the entire community outside the
league has become heartily sick, more
especially the great mass of the miners
Themselves. Those who are disposed TO
work have now formed an organization
for mutual projection, and express a
determination TO suppress at once any
attempt to infringe upon their rights.
The 81 mpatby of the law-abiding citi-
zens throughout the county is Of course
a unit with the defensive league, which
in itself is abundanJfy able to protec;
its members in their rights, but If VIC
lence should be attempted, not only the
counter union but the ciIiZens OF this
city and Hsmilton would unhesitatingly
and promptly deal out TO the perperra
tors such punishment as would be a
warning to designing demagogues as
long as White Pine shall be known.
The plain truth is, the patience of this
is well nigh exhausted, ana
4 single act of law!essne-s or violence
would exaSperaie the puolic mind to
such degree that punishment would !
not stop short of exhaustive vengeance |
u are BOT writing idle words. Many |
Of the mines will START up on Monday, |

The men (abour ll3) in the Consclids-
ed Chloride Flat Company Will con
Iuue work at the reduction. The Ne
fada and summit mines and the Auro-
:, Consolidated will also start up III

esdy started, and are abgndauJiy able

Gle could be sold in this city for $l.26 per

benefit, or it may amount to no possible
