James A. Pryor Us. John DonoUdn and
DaUid Mdgaer. claims that he was
arrested by Donovan, who is policeman,
without cause, knocked down, kicked
and generally maltreated. He complains
that his arm was broken, and that otherwise
great bodily harm was done to him. Judge
Cooley. in rendering his decision yesterday,
said:
The evidence Is not quite satisfactory as
to the breaking Of the arm, but 1t is ample
TO prove the arrest and the conveyance Of
complainant by Donovan to the police sta
ton on Lafayette street, which was attended
By that brutality and wanton disregard Of
the simplest dictates Of common humanity,
which, heretofore, have been attributed to
only few species Of wild beasts. Conduct
such as the record shows in this case must
be stopped. Police officers must be taught
that offenders are not 10 be knocked down
and dragged, by the help OF nippers, through
the streets Of the city, and that their con-
duct toward lheir fellow men must be
moderate and prudent. I do not consider

the murder case. At the time Of the con-
troversy in front Of the drug store, some
citizens, who were aware Of the details,
knowing that the Captain had done nothing
to call for his arrest, we're quite oficious in
their manner, and toe anxious to act as ex-
ecutioners for the Coroner. There were
half dozen patrolmen there at the time
ready to do the bidding of their chief, and
had they been ordered to arrest the Cor
oner, and those few who supported him,
could have easily performed the duty, but
the Superintendent would not permit such
a course, preferring cooler solution, and
going off under arrest with citizen
who had neither warrant nor commits
sion. Coroner Roche yesterday failed to
appear and substantiate his charge, but
Captain Cain would not permit the case to
drop. Now is the time to settle this trouble,
so that hereafter, when these two important
officials have another occasion to meet, as
they must whenever murder is committed,
there will exist perfect understanding, for
the furtherance of justice. Unless settle
ment is arrived at, and that before the
Grand Jury, we fear that repetition of Sat-
urday nights disgraceful affair, will be
enacted. 1t seems quite impossible that
perfect harmony will hereafter exist between
these two officials unless the Coroner's
powers are now strictly defined.
The following is the formal complaint
made by the Coroner:

TuD AccIDsxf TO HARRY TaoRNroS
Some anxiety being felt among Harry
Thornson's friends concerning the saus'
and extent of his injuries-alluded te
BY telegraph . day OF two since-we
reproduce the following from the White
Pine News of Tuesday:
Col. Harry l. Thornton met with an
accident on Sunday afternoon, while on
his way from Phoebe to this city, which
resulted in the breaking Of both bones
of the left leg about three inches below
the knee. The accident occurred about
80 miles east of this city. He was .
passenger by Travis Wilson's line,
and at the point designated the team
became apparently uneovernable. The
Colonel, with Judge Pitzer, occupied
the back seat in the stage. Thinking
that runaway Was imminent, and act
ing under . presentiment that an acci-
dent vas about to occur, Col. Thornton
FASTENED to make his exit from what be
considered q perilous position. Placing
his right foot on the brake-block, he
stepped off, throwing the whole weight
of the body on the left leg. The sur
face of the ground where he alighted
was somewhat uneven, and he fell, with
the unfortunate result already stated.
The team, though making unruly dem
onstrations by kicking and foundering,
had attained no great degree Of speed.
and that the simple act Of stepping to
the ground, a distance Of not more than
two or three feet, should have
been attended with sach serious conse-
quences, seems almost unaccountable.
On the way in from the scene Of the
accident, the Colonel experienced the
most excruciating pain, and when be
arrived here the injured limb was con-
siderably swollen and inAamed. Drs.
Oven and Deal were called, and at once
rendered all the surgical assistance of
which the case would admit. Soon
after the arrival of the stage the news
Of the accident spread rapidly about
town and sympathiziog friends in great
numbers FASTENED TO call upon the suf-
ferer at his residence. He rested com.
paratively easy on Sunday night, and
during yesterday conversed cheerfuliy
with the numerous friends who visited
him.

PRor. CoPE of the PhlladeIphi Acad-
envy of Natural Sciences, writes to the
Enterprise for Information regarding .
fossil animal lately discovered in this
State, and Dan DeQuille auswereth and
saith
We have neither vertebrate nor teeth
presume the editor OF the White Pine
News may have . few bushels that he
could spare, as the monster referred to
is undoubtedly that of which the News
some time since published . long &C
count. Mr.. Cope appears to be quite
anxious for particulars in regard to the
monster fossil, and will be glad to re-
ceive full Accoun. of il from some one
who has seen it. Some parties in this
city once discovered q pesrified monster
in the chAlky hills 10 the direction OF
Pyramid Lake, which altogether diff
fered from anything ever before found
in America. According to the story of
the discoveries, the whole beast, flesh
and all, vas petrified. 1t had the hoofs
Of q horse, the body of . rhinoceros,
and stood about 6 feet high, and from
tip to tip was about Is feet in length.
A horn seven Or eightteet in length pro-
jecte6 from the forehead. A large
painting of the monster was once to be
seen in this city. The owners of the
thing" as one of them has since in
formed US, dug i; out and had il loaded
upon a large wagon ready TO bring it to
the city, when they quarreled among
themselves about their shares in it. In
the dead of the night following the
evening on which they 4uarreledl an
explosion was heard, and upon looking
for the cause the monster was found to
have been blown into a hundred frag-
meats by las was afterwards ascer.
tainedl one of the dissatisfied having
fred sand blast under the monsters
belly. A few teeth-grinders-brought
to this city, are the only remains of this
unique monster that We hSve ever seen.
Some of the parties who had stock in
the wonder still evidently earnestly be-
lIese 10 it, but whether it ever vas any
thing more than q strange sort of swim
die which never fairly ripened, is not
known to this day. The story
told by the parties themselves is that
the ceast was blown up as stated above.

We are sorry that it is beyond our
power to present something more
handsome. TcGr labors In our midst

such that we can derive lasting bene-
fit from it. Should you be called to
labor in another field, as minister,
YOU 90 from us much beloved by all
who know you.
Your progressive efforts in the in
PRODUCTION Of an organ and Choir
into our Church and Sabbath School;
the organization of Library Society,
and the interest taken in the proper
training and education of the colored
youth Of our city, have endeared you
to the hearts of all the friends Of

warm appreciation Of your labors as
Pastor.
The Reverend gentleman responded
In a manner highly satisfactory to all,
rendering thanks, not only to the
