RAIS.-We had splendid rain here the first
OF the week that was the thing needed to damp
en- the top of the earth and bring up the lately
sown grain. On Sunday the fall of water was
1900 of an inch, on Monday 22-l00, Tuesday
7s-100, and on Wednesday ll-100; making q
total rainfall of l24-100 inches. Since the
rain we have had warm sunshine and vegetation
is growing very fast. The prospects for a
bountifuI harvest was never better.

STRAYED OR SToLEN.-One Jasper
w. Johnson, who was sent by the Dem.
ocrats of Curry county to the State
Convention, not having been heard of
since, it is feared that he may have
been captured by some evil disposed
person armed with greenbacks, or, hav
ing lost his companions, strayed into
the Radical camp. He can be identi>
fed by being the greatest bore in Ore
gon, or as the Radicals say, the biggest
fool. His bereaved constituents offer
one cent reward for any information
that will lead to his being restored to
his friends ds.-Plaindeater.

HELENA, May "a meeting of cit
izens was held last night to decide
what should be done with the prisoners
Lecompton and Wilson, who robbed
and attempted to murder Lcnhart on
the night of the 9th of April. Dis
trict Judge Symes first addressed the
meeting, strongly protesting against
interference with the civil authorities.
The meeting was then addressed by
leading citizens, stating that it was nec-
essary to strike terror to the rest of the
band, known to exist. They said it
was time that action be taken. A
committee of twcnty-four were elected
to try the case to whom the prisoners
confessed the crime. A more delib-
crate or premeditated robbery and mur-
der could not be planned. At TIVE
o'clock p. M, the committee reported
them both guilty and sentenced them
to be hung at 4:3O p. m. Over 5000
people collected around hangnan's tree
where both prisoners were hung. The
meeting was not o vigilance committee
but was composed of the best citizens
in the county. The whole affair was
conducted in o quiet manner. The
justice of the trial and verdict ID IN
questionable.

California Crop Prospects.

SAN Francisco, May 9th, 1870.
EDITOR REGISTER - Dear ,Sir-I
avail myself of the opportunity of penning
you a few lines in regard to the crop
prospects of this State, which trust you
will give place in your paper, as 1t IS
no more than right that the farmers in
your part of the valley should have the
benefit of the grain rnarketif there is any
prospects of an advance In prices.
1t is now well settled fact that we
will not have more than half a crop of grliu
in this State. Should we not have any
more rain, say inside of eight days, we
may not have more than one-third of a
crop. Your farmers will do we'll to hold
all their oats till, say about the 18th OF
July, when they will be able to realize
much better prices than they can obtain
az this time. All kinds of feed grain
will rule higher for the next twelve
months to come.
Very truly yours, Fl. J. A.

THEIR HOMESTEAD PoLIcY.-It is
edifying to find the Democratic press
contending that the public lands should
be reserved wholly for homesteads for
the people, and that none of them should
be given for the construction of railways.
That party comes up in an entirely
new character, when it appears as the
champion of homesteads. 1t always re-
fused to pass homestead law while it
had power 1t was not until May, 1862.
when the Republican party was in the
ascendant, that the bill to grant home
steads to settlers passed. Then every
Democrat in the Senate save ONE voted
against it, and every Senator identified
with the Republican party voted for it.
Senator Stark of this State voted square
" against it: Senator Nesmith lodged
the question. An examination of the
Confessional Globe for the second ses-
sion of the Thirty Seventh Congress,
PaYx Third, page 1851, dfscloses these
significant facts.
In February preceding the passage Of
the bill in the Senate it was before the
/ House The only opposition it met was
from the Democratic side. Among those
voting nay, when the bill was put on its
passage, was George X. Shiel, the Dem.
ocratic Representative from Oregon. A
Democratic Representative from State
whose citizens had each been given .
square mile of land by the General Gov
ernment voted against homestead ac
designed to secure to actual settlers the
benefits of home upon the public do
main. From this it will be seen tha
Oregon, then represented wholly by Dem
ocrats, gave no vote for the measur,
which the Democratic press here nov
processes so much to admire The recor,
of the party on this subject is not sucl
as to inspire the country with much con
idence in its present Professions Ore

The Indians are again at their devlish
work in Dakota. In one family the
mother had been killed and the daughter,
thirteen years of age, carried of, the faith
er making his escape. The excitement
was so great that it was feared the coun

fight occurred between Sheridan's troops
and the rcd devils, in which the latter
were badly worsted, and large amount
of stolen stock recovered.

The House Judiciary committee have
agreed on an important bill regulating
the mode Of discriminating the ratification
of an amendment to the Federal Consti-
tuition, based on one introduced by Bing4
ham. The first section makes it the duty
Of the State Executive to forward certifi-
Gates of the ratification to the State De-
partment, where they shall be on file /; tho
second declares that after the certificate
Of ratification has been given it shall be
unlawful for any State officer to certify to
any repeal, unless Congress shall have
proposed to rcpealj and if such certificates
Of repeal is received, tho State Depart
ment shall make no account of the same;
but 1t shall be void and Of no effect the
third section declares that after three
fourths Of the States have ratified any
amendment, persons 80 attempting to re-
peal, either by color of State law or by
ordinance, shall be deemed guilty of
misdemeanor, and on conviction be sub
ject to Imprisonment.

says that train bearing the dead from
the collision at Eureka yesterday, ar
rived this morning. The inquest was
held. The accident was terrible ono.
The engines came together with such ve-
locity as to smash them both to uudi-
tinguishable fragments. The tender and
baggage car, with two forward passenger
cars, were absolutely splintered The
engineer of passenger train saw the smoke
stack of the freight locomotive as it was
coming around the curve, and whistled
down the brake, which order was prompt
ly obeyed, and the brakes of the passen-
ger train were tight when the engines
came together.

affair ample evidence can be adduced to
show that Lady Byron, on this point at least,
was of unsound mind. That Lady Byron
told this story, and that Mrs. Stowe believed
her, and is determined to believe her in spite
of all contrary evidence, there can be no
doubt but when she comes before the world
with such an accusation, Mrs. Stowe must
expect that something more substantial in
the way of facts shall be presented than the
mere word of an aged woman whose mind
was turned by years of suffering, and argu-
ments which are based entirely on the as
sumption of Lord Byron's total depravity and
the belief that, as he was capable Of almost
any crime, he must necessarily be guilty of
this particular one. The public is unable to
see Lady Byrons magnanimity in the same
light that Mrs. Stowe does, when it is
shown that she was in the habit
of repeating this story right and left, with
such o variety of details that no one even
thought of believing her; and it is but chari-
table to suppose that her mind was unbal-
anced, and that she was not responsible for
her words. A large portion of Mrs. Stoves
book is taken up in proving what nobody
denies, that Lord Byron lampooned his wife
in most shameful manner, and that she was
obliged to submit to many harsh things said
about her by his friends and admirers, and by
gushingly sentimental appeals for sympathy
that Mrs. Stowe invariably makes when she
finds her logic giving out.
The excuse for the original publication and
for this rehash of the scandal is the one that
has already been disallowed-the necessity for
defending Lady Byrons memory. Mrs. Stoves
real reason was that she had got hold of a
spicy item, and she burned to give it to the
world. She has certainly achieved peou-
mary success if her publishers give her fair
share of their profits, but there are some per-
sons who would not care to purchase success
at the price she has done
We print in another part of our paper ex-
tracts from the advance sheets of Mrs.
Stoves new book, which will give our read
ers an idea of its style and purport.
