passionate vigor characteristic of all love

Who Killed James A. Banksf

A correspondent of the San Francisco Bull.
| letin, writing from Humboldt Wells, under
date Of December Sd, ventures 4 theory re-
specting the death Of James A. Banks, in
Paradise Valley. in 1867, which we are con-
WINGED has not the least foundation. The
writer SAYS:
cit now turns ont that that estimable
young man and valuable citizen was murdered
BY white men-if the monsters who could
perpetrate crime so atrocious deserve to be
recognized as men at all. There is a we'll
founded suspicion that the murderers of
Banks are known. and that they will in due
time be visited with deserved punishment.
Two men are now in Jail in Humboldt
county, charged with homicide at Winnie
mucca, a few months since. From certain
givings out, it is believed that they, or one Of
them assassinated Banks. being instigated
ther,t', BY the desire of obtaining his watch
and sum of money which he was known 10
have upon his person at the time. Should
the Indians be relieved from The imputa'ion
of this crime, it would greatly modify the hard
feeling entertained by many whites against
them, the victim of this murder having been
more generally resnected and esteemed than
anv other man in Nevada"
II the correspondent is in possession of any
facts relative to the shooting of Mr.. Banks,
he ought to give them to the public. II he
knows nothing about it he would have done
better TO have laid nothing about it, No man
can be justified in casting suspicion upon
others without cause in as grave a matter as
cold -blnoded murder. 1t is no indication of
manline>s to kick man because he is down.
Cage and LINDSAY have enough to answer
to without unnecessarily increasing the
amount How does this correspondent
know that it now turns out" that Banks
{" was murdered by white menu" How
dues he know that the suspicion that the
murderers of Banks are well known
is "well founded :" The evidence of
Lieut. Laffertv and four Others, AT the Coro- !
ner's inquest, was conclusive that the murder |
was committed BY three Indians; and 80 the :
jury found. What other evidence has come |
to light. adverse to the conclusions of than |
jury? Nhv are Cage and Lind>a, connected !
" Ifh the affair: Parties living at that time |
in Uuinnville. know Lindsay was in that
place a, the time Banks los, his life, and was
engaged in a legitimate business: and Cage,
We understand, was in the employ of Hill
Beache,, in Idaho. The fact that these men
stand charged with great offense, for which
thew are now here awaiting trial. ought not I"
subject them to pnblic prejudice in another
matter, without some good cause shown

WE SEE that it is stated tina, an American
man-of-war Is about to take possession Of
the Galapagos Islands in behalf Of the Gov
erument of the United States. This ought
not to be true; for, just as certain as We
extend our possessions out from the CONT
men; which makes US strong, just so sure
will source of future weakness be developed
in the Republic Uncle Sam is impregnable
now-and will be, while he keeps himself
within his own native domain, the North
American Con,inent-no matter how much
of it-but whenever he gets to spreading
himself out, thin, over Cuba and San Do
mingo and the Galapagos and the Sandwich
Islands, he will find that he presents too
many vulnerable points of attack for a free
Republic which has no business with a stand
ing army and navy. Outlying dependencies,
whenever we acquire them, will prove the
seeds of decay.

REsIGNATI' OF JUDGE SaNDERS0N.-
Yesterday Judge Sander>nn sent III his resig-
nation Justice of the Supreme Court, pre-
paratorv to entering upon an important BUSH
ness engagement. While the Supreme Court
will sustain serious loss BY the withdrawal
of one of the ahle>t iuri>,s in the State Of
California, Mr. Sander>on will secure posi-
rion more lucrative, if not more honorable.
His resignation will have considerable effect
upon the fight for Harbor Commissioner, the
canva>sing for which will commence this
evening i'll the legislature. We understand
that Jackson Temple Governor Haight's
business partner. II. p. Barber, and c. T.
X, iand, of Santa Clara, are candidates tor
the seat vacated bv Mr.. Sandersnn. and the
name of Judge Sam Bell Mckee is also
spoken of. The pressure brought to bear by
all of these gentlemen will doubtless be very
strong. but the most popular choice would
probably be Mr.. McKce.-Sacrament Re
cord, 5th.
All the Republicans who have been candi-
dates for the Supreme Bench of California
since 1867 having been beaten, and all the
Republican Judges who held places there
having resigned, the Cnpperheads have a
pretty clean thing of it-having III the other
branches of the government besides. Poor
California!

boys and girls. II is only when there exists
in the student of either sex an absolute and
well-marked taste for these studies that they
can be pursued with much hope of advantage.
STILL the young women, who have now their
colleges well endowed, and each with re-
spectacle faculty, can no longer complain
that they are debarred from what is usually
called liberal education. In this, as in
many other matters, there no longer exists
any reason for ancient protests and stereo-
typed fsult-fnding. For ourselves, we have
always considered discussion of the equality
of the sexes as a lamentable waste of time
which should he precious; for the question,
it appears to us, is not one of equality, but
of difference. But when so much is to be
decided, we must not object to experiments;
and woman can no longer plead that she is
cruelty and despotically cut off from Op-
portunity.

suffering for years prior to her death, with ares
ignation drawn from the bright example of the
Cross, as Sunday School we point with
proud satisfaction to our late associate and COM
panion.
Resolved, That in her life, her humility, and
trust in the CRUSHED Eedeemer she has afforded
a bright exampie-the eminent characteristics
of the christian only-and that the less on taught
us by her calm, humble and trusting spirit, amid
the trials and sufferngs which fell to her lot, is
ona which, without fear and with the hope of ev-
erlasting ife and happiness, we may confidently
treasure in our Utmost hearts.
Resolved. That as Sunday School tender
our sympathy to the bereaved father, mother, sis
ter and brother and beg they will consider this
seeming deprivation as but the work of Him who
doeth all thiags well.
Resolved that these resolutions be published in

When the sun his rays were shedding
Beaming, cleaning, fairly streaming
through the trees;
And watched the streamlet glistening,
As entranced there was listening,
To the melting, merry music Of the breeze,
When beneath o tree reclining
Where no raw of sun was SHINING,
Lo! saw fellow being on the groundi
Though no other feature shifted,
Quickly soon his eyes upliftcd--
Upward lifted as he wildly looked around.
"Good FRIEND" said approaching,
Do not charge me with encroaching-
Are YOU waiting for some messenger Of news?
But no other word he uttered,
And no other sentence muttered. save
