Hsse Kasi or Water Down Gold Can

HuSo Rush Of Water Down Gold Cnn-
Yen.
At the hour of noon, to-day, the
dark threatening indications of rain,
which had prevailed for on hour or two
previously, eliminated in q huge cloud
burst-by somc enormously termed a
waterspout-st the head of Gold Can
you. The rain, mingled with hail, fell
in torrents in Gold Hill and Virginia,
but the principal point Of the cloud
burst seemed to be up in the branch
known as Silver Canyon, between
Mount Davidson and Mount Butler.
Within the space of three or four
minutes a perfect river of water-the
largest torrent seen in Gold Hill
for many u long day, came roaring down
Main street, filing it completely, and
ever rushing over the sidewalks into the
houses, saloons and stores on each side.
Boxes, planks, barrels, and other nova
bles, came borne along or the angry tor
rent, and for about half an hour there
seemed to be affair show for serious dam
age to be done. As it was, several
basem ,nts and cellars were flooded, and
the street considerably quilted out in
places. The flood lasted about half an
hour, and then subsidized. We have not
learned whether there was much damage
done below in Gold Canyon, but
presume there must have been some to
the tailings sluice arrangements, though
the rain did not seem TO be at all hcary
below here. There were also foods
down the cross streets at Virginia, but
not TO near so great nm extent as in
Gold Hill. In an hour after it CON-
meuced Main street had no water at all
running down il, and no n would
have supposed it ever experienced such
q river. This was q genuine cloud
burst, such as is frequent in the noun
famous regions of this State, and
especially the other side Of the Carson
River. They are lively and dangerous
concerns whilo they last.

RECOGNIZING FOREIGN POWERS.

TTOUt He W. Il Times.
General Banks has presented, urged, and
passed through the House a resolution autho-
rizing the President to recognize the indepen-
denoe Of Cuba whenever he is satisfied that il
has been achieved, and that the people have
established government republican in
form." Ii has not been customary hitherto to
prescribe the form Of government which any
people may see fit to establish, as condition
OF our recognizing its existence; but perhaps
1t may be well enough for us to begin with
Cuba, If this novel principle is to be introduced
into the law and practice of nations.
But are we not, on this theory, little pre-
mature in sending Minister to Spain before
that country has decided to be republic
And ought we not to have foreborne to send
Mr Washburne to France until the French
people shall have made up their minds to
dispense with their Emperor, and establish
government republican in form 2" There is,
perhaps, some excuse for sending Mr.. Motley
to England in spite of the form OF its govern
ment, for we want to satisfy the people of that
"effete monarchy" that we are by ne means
80 anxious to be on good terms with them as
they have been led to suppose. But what is
to be said in defense of our continuing to main
tain relations with Austria and Prussia and
Italy and other countries that have not yet
seen ut to initiate our example and establish
governments Republican in fcrm9" .....

ter is to take measures to enlighten these ma
tions as to the practical working of republi
can institutions in this country, and thus in
duce them to 60 and do likewise. Let him
arrange to give the people of Paris an inside
view Of what institutions, republican Gin
form, " have done for the city OF New York;
how pure they have made our judiciary
how high-toned and inoorrupt our legislatures
have become under their infiuencs-how per-
feet Is our civil service, how zealously our
aoiest and best men enter into public life and
devote themselves to the task of keeping il
pure and honorable-how safe are life, liberty,
and property, and how much superior are the
fruits OF our Government to those o.
any other country in the world; and we can
scarcely faii TO lead all other nations to follow
our example at once and adopt for themselves
ing else. =" Ao'A
But II Cuba achieves her Independence. and
her people establish a government for tbsm
selves, we hope We shall acknowledge its ak

capable of treason. They were considered
canable Of making treaties with the United
Slater, and yet ali commerce and trade with
them was, under the Federal Constitution, to
be rerulated by Congress. Such was the
legal condition Of Colonel Parker up TO July
2S. 1868, when was declared ratified the
amendment which said-
aAu persons born OF naturalized in the United
States and subject TO the jurisdiction thereof, are
citizens thereof and Of the State wherein they
reside"
This amendment not only makes all native
born Indians Federal citizens, but makes those
residing in New York citizens OF this State.
How can the Federal Government now make
more treaties with its own citizens Hence
forth Indians are TO be governed by laws.
Therefore, Colonel Parker may be commits
siOner.
