THE TRIAL OF PRISCE BoNAPARTE.-The trial
of Prince Pierre BOnaparte for the murder OF
Noir seems to have been far a mere farce.
The court is evidently in full sympathy with the
accused and against the prosecution. The spec
tators admitted within the chamber have acted
throughout as if they were the hired claquers of
the Prince and now, at last, TO rourd out the
farce, comes the story that even the Prosecuting
Attorney is on the side of the Prinf. lie has
utterly ignored the bulk of his own evidence,
aud on the curious ground that the witnesses
belong to vicious political party. At the same
time, he affects to favor conviction, and tells the
court that the Prince did not do the shooting in
self-defense. This is a strange course. The jdry
only decide question of fact from the
weight of the testimony given. The prosecu-
ton introduces testimony especially and only iu-
tended to show that the shooting was not in
self-defense, and the attorney for the state tell
ing the court it must throw out that evidence, at
the same time insists that the shooting was not
in selt-oefense. From this statement of the trial
of course, the jury cannot bring in verdict of
guilty, and the trial has been but mere form
gone through with in some measure to satisfy
the letter of the law, without the least intention
of eliciting justce.-Saerdmento Union.

DANCING SCHooL.-Thursday night the dancing
school of Mr.. A. Henry assembled at Thomas
theatre, and, after lessons, went after partners,
and select, and kept it up till twelve. There
are plenty of young men and young ladies to
have good dance upon shortest notice, but it
seems the dancing crowd of Weavervile are di-
Vided into two crowds, neither one of which will
attend where the other goes. We don't know
whether any organization exists on the part of
either. The factions are called respectively
"Whisky Ring" and "Anti-Whisky Ring" But
one result can only be expected from such foolish
contention. Both parties will pay more and
have less fun

Help.

Help.
Thousands of persons, without any specific
ailment, are the victims of languor and lassitude
The unthinking are apt to coufound this species
of inertion, with laziness; whereas it usually
arises from want of organic energy, for which
the subjects of it are more responsible than
the near-sighted are for their defective vision
Such persons, although they may be free from
pain, are as truly invaids, and as much in need
OF medical aid, as if they were tormented with
the pangs of acute disease. They require a
TONIC and ALTERATlvE, that will rouse and regu-
late their torpid organizations. In cases OF this
kind, HosTErTERs STOMACH BITTERs produce an
immediate and most favorable effect. The de-
biliated and desponding valetudinarian, who
feels as II he were but half alive who shuns
company, and has no relish either Cor business
or pleasure, is metamorphoSed by brief course of
this most potent cegetable invigorant, into quite
different being. The change effected by the BIT
TIERS, in his bodily and mental condition, is II
surprise TO himself and to his friends. He
mopes no longer; the active principle of life,
which seemed to have died out of him, is re-
awakened, and he feels like new man, Re-
membering that debility is not only an aflliction

be lost in recruiting the broken-down system

Tun INDIAN RESERVATION A NulsASOn.-The

THE INDIAN RESERVATION A NUISANCE The
testimony of all of the residents of lower Trinity
with whom we have conversed, is singularly
harmonious and unvarying in relation to the
Indian reservation at Hoopa valley All say
they would feel much more security for life an d
property if the Indians were turned loose. AS
it is now, there are large numbers of aborigines
collected in the valley who are furnished guns
and ammunition and allowed to go abroad for
twelve or fifteen days at time. Is horse
stolen the owner may find his animal at the
Reservation, but not the thief There are num-
ber who are making big thing out of the sup
plies which necessarily have to be furnished. =.
TO certain extent these persons are inclined to
shield the Indians when complaints are made.
The settlers if left to deal with maraudng red
skins, would have less fear of being injured by
them, and, in the end, would extermnate them
and thereby procure perfect safety. AS it is
now, the whole matter is in the hands of gov
ernment agents and lack of vigilence on their
part is liable to untail great damage upon the
Surrounding population. The evidence before
MS tends positively to the conclusion that the
Reservation at Hoopa valley is blight upon the
prosperity of lower Trinity, and retards its
development. We know of no remedy but the
removal of the Indians somewhere else.
