Our kilograms to-day say that the Prussians
have possession Of the high ground at Sceaux,
south OF Paris, by which their guns win com
mand the southern portion of the city. The
southern defences OF Paris, extending from the
LETT bank OF the Marne, at Creteil, across the
Seine 10 versailles, are commanded by a light
range OF hills, one OF which Is the heights at
Sceaux. When the forts were built, rifed can
non were unknown; and now, BY some fatsi,v
the Parisians have failed to guard against the
Prussians getting possession Of these hills, from
which the use Of their long range guns is practi-
cable. II remains TO be seen whether the long
range IRE viii make the capture OF Paris practi-
cable on that side, or whether, as in the case Of
Charleston, s. c., it will amount 10 anything
more than an annoyance. Military men hold,
however, that the possession OF this point has q
very important bearing upon the capture Of
Paris.

poRArED.-Mr. Adrian G. Ellis, who
owns a large interest in the lode upon
which the Dunderberg mine is located,
received letter yesterday from MIA 81.
Griswold who has charge of his. Ellis
mine, which states that everything 10
that District looks promising. The let
ter is dated June 10Th. Mr.. Griswold
states that the man who has charge of
DR.. Munckton's mine is taking out
enormously rich rock from the drifts
which lead off from the tunnel. We
understand that the Doctor intends TO
incorporate bis mine, and make Carson
the principal place of business of the
company. We are glad to know this.
II is quite too much the custom Of our
mining people to incorporate in Califor.
MIA aud have their place Of business in
San Francisco. The organization of
company of home capitalists and the
holding of valuable mining stocks here
is one thing wanted. Success to the
enterprise and all who may EN- bark in it.

LOCAL MATTERS.

RADICAL PoL1TIcs-HUMrHEEYs' Con-
vEsT1oN. Humphreys is not slow to show
his gratitude for his master, Porter. tie
has issued call for congressional conycn-
ton to assemble in Richmond on the 3d OF
August to rc-nominate him. This docs not
meet with the appreciation of the respecta-
bic wing of the party, however. They de-
clare that Humphreys is acting without au-
thority, and that he is, as he has always
been, working to the detriment of his
party. They Know that the convention is
called in the interests of Porter. and he *
to them as distastcful rs he is to the Con-
seryatives. So much so that they would
prefer the election of Il Conservative man.
They will endeavor to defeat the purposes
of Humphreys, and in case they do not sue
ceed, they nominate an independent candi-
date. Franklin Stearnsis most prominently
named in this connection, and the hope is
entertained that The white vote may he united
upon him, and that sufficient number of
colored voters can be counted upon to de-
feat Porter.

Frnln the EnnIIirpr.

The Petersburg Inder criticises in differ
ent spirit what we said, and makes impnta-
tions which are unfoundcd. It's innendoes
admit of construction which would make
them personally offensive. But, rs we have
often said, we put no such construction on
words that do not plainly convey it. We
have no reason to regard the writer in the
Iylder as one who would hesitate to say in
terms what he would be willing to insinuate
by allusion. To any charge made or insinua-
ted, however. that we sought to induce Or
did induce that committee to adopt what
they did not understand, We oppose the
direct declaration that the charge was false.
The committee WAS al intelligent one, act
ing with the advice observation-disclosures
Marye, who did add To ono rcso luton
paragraph about the appointment OF county
superintendents, adopted by the committee
Oh our suggestion, and drawn by Mr.. Maryc
while we were engaged in the draught OF
the resolution itself.
1t is sheer folly to suppose that such a
committee could, under such circumstances,
adopt resolution which they did not un-
derstand. 1t is gross calumny to charge that
we endeayorcd to make them adopt what
they did not understand. The words are
plain, and there was no mistake about them.

in his pocket with the avowcd intention of
bringing forth pistol. The pistol went oil
in his pocket and shot Woody in the thigh:
In response to an inquiry, our informant
said, very gravcly: "Wcll, L can't say
