Mr.. BES. PITMAN, reporter Of the

ability shown by Yerger's counsel
would have secured his aCquIttal at the

Such prediction, II made In the late Mr..

DEATH STRIKES A SHINING NAgH.-
Among those who have recently sue
cumbed to the rigors of this climate
and gone down to untimely graves, |
know of none moro widely regretted
and mourned than Richard Poston, a
graduate of the college at Oakland last
ear and a young man OF great
promise, with such sterling qualities OF
mind and heart as commended him to
the admiration and esteem of all who
met him. He came here only q few
weeks since in the vigorous health OF
early manhood, was stricken down with
fever, fingered two weeks, and sank
away to bis rest at last as peacefully as
an infant to its slumbers. Loving
hands wrapped him in the garments OF
the grave, and laid him gently in his
coffin, and as tho prayer for the
widowed mother, whose pride and stay
in. life he was, went up from the midst
Of the little throng of mourners, tears
flowed from many eyes, albeit unused

SILVER AND GoLD.-Two gold spikes,
each to be the last, were forwarded from
San Francisco to be driven through the
last rail into the last tie. Now we see
that Virginia City has forwarded to
" the front" a silver spike nine inches
long and weighing almost II pound, to
be used for the same purpose. We sus-
pect that these spikes are not the things
to secure safe travelling. We much fear
that they will not be permitted to re-
main long enough in the rail to get ac-
climated. II the drivers do mt extract
them very soon after the last blow is
struck, somebody else will, and some
people have been cruel enough to sug-
cest that that s why so many arc nnI-
ious to drive the last nail-so that they
may be in a position to pick it out at the
earliest convenience. That will be high
way robbery and would be u felony in
California, but in Utah it is hard to tell
what will be made Of it. Perhaps the
thief may be sentenced to take half a
dozen extra wives.-Sae. Bee.
