The daughter subsequently married Mr.
Jackman, and the newly married couple
were living in the neighborlood. On last
Friday night, Long came to the residence OF
Jackman, and, giving n false name wanted
admittance. The family, fearing there was
NJ good will in his request, refused his en-
trance. Finding he wss determined To break
in, Jackman and his wife ran over to Mr.
William Rice's near BY.
Rice and Jackman then returned u Jack
mans residence, and seeing no one, entered
the house and got down rifle, which they
began to load, when Long rushed in ON them
with a revolver, and, firing, shot Jackman
through the arm. Then turning to Rice, he
said: "You are Jackman's friend, are YOU?

shot Rice through the neck, and seeing him
fall, he escaped But his devilish work Wa

women should understand all the laws
that govern the human organism, and
control its various functions, but espe-
clally those which pertain to the rela-
tion of mother and child. It is essential
that women shall become better inform
ed in regard to their own structure, and
that of the children committed to their
care. And who SO well fitted to teach
mothers these invaluable lessons as the
women who have devoted years to the
faithful study of these subjects Who
so well calculated for obstetrical prac
tiee as women? When they prove
themselves the equals of their brothers
in professional ability and skill. they
are certainly more welcome at the. bed

presence more agreeable, bnt also be.
cause they are natural nurses, and being
such, can minister to their patients
more pleasantly and efficiently than
would be possible foe the opposite sex

but in all the relations of life. will meet

The Messenger has deigned to an
swer our question in regard to our
spiritual welfare, for all of which we
feel very grateful The Messenger
seems to be anxious to know the
status of our morals, in order that it
may be able TO give the desired in
structions. For the purposes of this
particular case, the Messenger may call
our moral status good, and then, if we
shall deceive it. its editor will not be to
blame The Messenger supposes we
are siucere in our enquiry after the
true way. We can assure it that we
are; but we are not quite satisfied with
the instruction thus far given. As We
understand them, they go to two points

these have we kept from our youth up.
What lack we yet? We read, We must

FaEsH AIR. Fresh air by day and
night, strong and nourishing food, dry
soil on which to live. sunlight and warm
clothing. are the means of saving many
lives which would have been hopelessly
lost in the preceding generation. Ii
correct, this improvement may be ex-
pected to continue, and everybody eau
help 10 make it greater. Ventilate the
school rooms, and the workshops, and
the stores. and the houses. In cold
weather, let the air, comfortably and
equally warmed, be generally supplied
from without, in constantly flowing
current. Let those who can provide it
in their homes remember, that an open
fire, which seeds two-thirds of the heat
up the chimney, furnishes the best ven
tlator for room of moderate size
which the ingenuity G. man has yet
devised, and that the heat escaping up
the chimney is the price to be paid for
it. Let in the sunlight, and never
mind the carpets better they should
fade than the health of the family.

Solution pf the "Maze."

The editor of thr Mercury endeavors,
by all power at his. command, to sub
vert our language in the REPUBLICAN,
regarding the "thereof' as an addition
to certain clause of the Constitution
in such manners as to endorse State
Supremacy. His comments are too
meaningless ito require any special no.
tice and his situation reminds us of
an anecdote Of 40 Irishman who wished
to shoot squirrel perched on a branch
of large tree. Paddy loads his car
bine, and, as he supposes, takes accu>
rate aim at the animal, but, to his
chagrin, ssDlisses bis mark" but the res
action of the piece prostrated him to
the ground. just as he raised himself
from the ground to look for his game,
the squirrel ran further up the tree
with a malicious chur.rr-rr. Paddy
with gruut of discomfort, turned
away, muttering to himself, g Be ja-
bers, if you had been at my end Of the
gun, you'd have sung different song
from that !"

CLEARING AwAY.-We notice that G

clearing away the rubbish on the pro-
perty he purchased from Estes & Stim.
son, previous to building wharf, at
which, we learn, his steamers, of which
B. Holladay is agent, will land as soon
as completed. The Ferry Boat now
about ready to be launched, will also
land at the same wharf passengers. and
freights from the o. and G. Railroad.
Mr.. Weidler, by thus purchasing pro-
perty in his own name, shows he is just
as honest as the rest Of our leading
citizens who are not afraid to own their
own property in their own names, and
by thus improving it, he also shows he
is partakiug of the go ahead spirit which
has always characterized the conduct
of our citizens. Herald.

RAILROAD SURVEY. The Hood
party is down the mountain as far as
Coles, and will soon reach the klamath
River on the new line. The new survey
will no doubt extend down Cottonwood
Creek, but how it will run towards
Yreka cannot be surmised at present.
The route straight to town by the
Shasta River, on the Klamath. is con-
sidered very rough, but if the distance
is shorter than along the stage road, it
will still have an advantage of some
consideration in the location of the
established route.

We clip from the Missouri Repubi-
can of Nov. 24th the following remark
able paragraph =" Singular Coinci-
dence - m
The striking resemblance in personal
an public character between Washing
ton and Lee is not the only circum
stance that associates them together in
the memory of their countrymen. The
Leesburg (Va.) Washinqtonian men>
tons these additional condolences
That both were born in Westmoreland
county, Virginia that each married a
Custis; that each was a prominent, if,
indeed, in many respects not the most
prominent, figure in great historical
American war and each has Mar
shall for his historian-Jhief Justice
Marshall having been the biographer
of Washington. and Col Charles Mar
shall. his relative, having been assigned
the task Of writing the biography OF
Lee.
The facts of their birth, marriage,
the similarity OF names of their biog
raphers, and the prominence of their
position, are all the resemblance that
can be traced between the two. In
other respects, they differ as widely as
day and night. Washington, impelled
by high and noble impulse, rose, step
by step, from the walks of private life
until he became the leader of, and was
justly styled the "Father of, his coun
try" Born at time that tried al
mental and moral, as well as the physi,
cal energies of men, We can but admire
the nobility of his nature. On the
other hand, the man which the Repub-
licon places on par with that oil
Washington, has nothing in his history
to rouse the nobler energies of our
race. Instead Of following q course
that would tend to the prosperity ol
our country, he endeavorei by all mean,
in his power. (and they were by ne
means Insignificant to overthrow oul
Government, and rear upon its ruin, i
not a daspotism, Government tha
would have been disgrace to any civil
lied people. While we could admire
the talents of this man, yet the use Il
which he perverted them, render hi
name doubly despicable. Happy tn
lot of one whose province it is to writ
the biography of such man as Wash
ington But we envy not the task O
one who will impartially show forth tn
life and character, and strictly com
ment upon the works of Robert L
Lee.
