| a QUARTER OF CENTURY Judge
Keeney Of tho District Court yesterday
sentenced John G. Watson and Wash
ington Wallen to the State Prison for
the term of twenty Eve years each, for
robbing the White Pine stage, two miles
from Elko, on the evening of the LIST OF
May. A motion for a new trial was
made, but overruled, when counsel in
timated an intention to appeal to the
Supreme Court. The remarks of Judge
Keeney, preliminary to the sentence,
were philosophical, appropriate and i'm.
prsssive showing how nearly impossi-
BILE it is for evil doors to-escape detec-
ton and punishment; saying that every
deed, good or bad, left its imprint, as
every passing object leaves its impress

shrubbery, the twittering of bird, or
the bark of a distant watch dog might,
had, furnished the clue to the course
taken by the perpe,rator of a crime, and
led ultimately to conviction, as might
also start al something spoken, word,
a dream, or some otherwise trivial incl
dent or extravaganza. The Judge also
expressed regret (which is doubtless
shared in by the entire community that
the necessities of the law had compelled
the release of Servetus Quiuton, Que of

turned States evidence 10 escape his |
share of the punishment. Watson ap-
pearei deeply Interested in the remarks,
while Wallen seemed Indifferent and |
morose. When judgment was pro.
nounced, Watson's face assumed palIid |
hue, and for moment he appeared much |
agitated and anxious to speak then
up TO the Judges stand, he
leaned upon the corner, and, in a tone
of voice inaudible to the bar or assem-
bled multitude, told the Judge that he
could not blame him for overruling the
motion for new trial, nor for the term
Of sentence-which was complimentary
TO the prosecuting attorney, who had
doubtless convinced Watson that he
ought to be hung. Both prisoners ap-
oeared greatly relieved after the SEN
ence. and Wallen was particularly
cheerful. Watson is a small, nervous,
yiry looking man, about 80 years of
,ge; Wallen, a large, powerful man,

DROPPING EARTHQUAKES OUT OF THE
SKy.-The New York Commercial Advertiser
thinks that the money and labor that have
been so lavishly expended, particularly in
England, to construct impregnable ships of
war and irresistible cannon, have been so
much waste, if the report of some supple
mentary experiments be true. In the previ
Gus trials attention was confined to horizon
tai firing, and ironclds and forts have been
mainly built with this view. We are now
threatened with kind of meteoric warfare,
by the use of gigantic mortars, which Will
attack from abave. Two of these disagree
able machines have been constructed at Wool
witch, which are capable of throwing a shell
weighing, with its powder charge, nearly a
ton and half. Shells from these mortars,
projected by seventy pounds of powder, have
been projected more than mile and half,
and on falling have pierced the earth TO a
depth of twenty-five feet. The effect of such
a prejectile would be most terrible, not only
on board ship, but on land too. 1t would be
like the springing of mine, and would de-
stroy the strongest construction-ship or fort.
These mortars are thirty-siX inches in d. |
ameter, and it is said there would be no diff |
fculty of increasing tine range of their ghells
TO three or four miles. Of the tremendous
effect Of bombshells it is hardly necessary to
speak, but the explosion of one on board the
French ship Terrible, in the year 1890, blew
away the poop and large portion of the up
per works, and killed or disabled one hundred |
men, and it was not near the dimensions of
the modern productions. 1t is anticipated |
that mortar firing viii henceforth absorb much
of the attention that horizontal irinf has
and necessitating contempor-
aneous change in fort and naval architecture.
The mortars hitherto used have been ofcom- |
paratively small capacity. but the English
war officials have plan for constructing and
using moTtars containing propel ling charge |
Of l40 pounds Of powder, the shell having a
diameter of thirty-six inches. One pill of
these dimensions would be sufficient dose
for any kind of ship, or fort either, for that
matter, if it exploded inside.

BRIGHAM YoUSG.-Brigham Young
became sixty-nine years old on the lst of
June. His paper, the News, announced
the fac, in this language:
The 1st day of June will ever be me-
mortal among the Latter Day Saints as
the birthday of the illustrious man, who
under God, has been the means of lead
ing them for so many long and import
ant years, in the midst of the remarka-
bic scenes and vicissitudes which have
marked their history since the death of
the Prophet Joseph. Sixty-nine years
ago the town of Wilmington (Vt.) re-
ceived the honor of being the birthplace
of one of the greatest men the nation
ever produced, for there is no American
whose name is more widely. known and
who has achieved so high a reputation
and SO extensive fame as President
Brigham Young.
1t then gives the following epitome of
the wanderings of the Mormons:
For twenty-six years he has led the
Latter Day Saints. Driven from Nauvoo,
Hancock county HH.), the people ofthe
church, under his guidance, started
across the Mississippi river into the then
Territory of Iowa, formed the settle !
ments Of Garden Grove, Mount Pisgah |
and kanesyille. and on the other side of |
the Missouri river, established Winter
quarters. Thence at the bead of the |
pioneers he led the way to this valley, |
and laid the foundations of this city and |
rerritory-a journey which in all itsl
features is one of the most remarkable !
ever performed.

A GENERAL AMNESTY.

Hon. Ben Butler has reported from the
House Reconstruction Committee Bill
looking to the amnesty of all persons,
with a few prominent exceptions, who
were engaged in the rebellion. This act
ofgeneral forgiveness of the great mass
ofs'our deludei Southern brethren" is
well as a matter of form; flor it is hard
" anything else, inasmuch as nobody,
rot even Jeff Davis, has ever been prose-
cuied for treason.) 1t is becoming in .
great nation like this whose position is
assured and whose domestic enemies
have been put down, to proceed to this
act Of formal, decisive clemency.
Whether such an act of generosity will
he duly accepted and appreciated is a
matter Of doubt. Hard knocks and stern
treatment seem to be better understood
by the adherents of the 'sLost Cause"
than gen,ler treatment. 1t is we'll, how
ever, to forgive them, even while they
may insist that they have done nothing
for which they are sorry and for the
performance of which they need forgive
ness. Amnesty steals m nch of the dem
agogues' thunder. 1t places the late
rebel soldier, practically, upon an equal
footing with the most ssrenuously and
constantly loyal citizen of the North.
Ifthe masses the south choose to hate
the government and seek to obstruct its
laws they will do so in spite of the gov
ernment's last and most complete effort |
TO restore them to their former status of ]
citizenship. Thus Will the onus of any
disagreement between the citizen and
the government be thrown upon the for
given rebel. Following is synopsis of
the Bill as reported by Mr.. Butler:
In the House, Mr.. Butler, from the Com
uaittee on Reconstruction, reported General
Amnesty Act for persons engaged in the late
rebellion, excepting persons educated IN the
military or naval academy, ex-memberS of
Congress and members OF the Confederate
Congress, heads of United States Executive
Departments, Ministers abroad, and Judges
OF United States Courts, and persons holding
Ike offices under the Confederate States,
s:gners of the ordinances of secession. Gov
ernors of Seeded States, and persons who
treated our prisoners cruelty, persons who
having public money have not accounted
therefor, and who enlbezzied or secreted pub
lie property, deserters from the army and ,
navy, and bounty jumpers Provision is also
