victs for the murder OF lsaacS, was oc-
cupied, says the Carson Register, In
the examination Of witnesses and the
usual amount of Directing, ruling and
excepting. We were In error yeStsr-
day In stating that certain commit
ment papers were admitted without
objection. AL were objected to, but
I'm most cases tho objections were over
ruled and exceptions taken. Stephen
Sancho, of Virginia, who nursed
Isaacs during his illness, was examined
"a to the death, as was also Alfred
Helm. Lieutenant Governor Denver
was examined ut some length rs to tho
facts of the break, the shooting, ETC.,
and recognized by sight and name
many Of the prisoners at the bar rs
having participated in the affair. Du-
ring the delivery Of his evidence there
were many anxious and some pale
faces in the group OF prisoners ut the
bar. Captain Volney E. Rollins was
examined as to who escaped at the
time of the break, and rs to his know
ledge Of the matter in general named
from memory all (but one) who were
missing at roll-call Immediately after
the break, and stated the general con-
dition Of the doors, gateways, ETC.,
through which the convicts escaped.
Henry Langlois, the brave French
guard who fought so desperately
against the break, was next intro
duced, and gave q very straight for
ward account of the affair from the
time he entered the yard ~tprevious to
the shooting Of Plxley and lsaacsl un,
til the firing ceased; said he ran and
got his own rifle aud 6-shooter and that
1ssacs an up behind him, took his
GangloisO rifle and backed of 80 or 40
feet from the guard-room window so
as to shoot In saw several prisoners
on the inside, and saw them strike the
glass with something so "a to break 1t
out ; could not recognize the prisoners
inside the window nor those who en-
tered the yard ; saw two standing on
the front porch Of prison shooting at
witness, but could not say who they
were, as it was nearly dark. As our
space will not permit the publication
Of the evidence In full, 1t may be rs
we'll TO state that so far nothing has
been elected materially differing from
the statements already published IN
these columns in relation to the break
and killing. After the examination OF
John Newhouse, one OF the Suar1s
wounded in the break, the Court al
iourned until 10 A. N. to-day.
FRox ARIzoNA.-Forey Gregory,

AZ A former resident of Virginia City,
Deputy Sheriff, County Jailer, etc.,
retnrned yesterday from Arizona,
where no has been rusticating n
prospecting for the last year or two.
He reports Governor Stafford healthy,
but considerably exasperated over the
numbering outrages nov so frequently
Committed by the Apache portion OF
his subjects. Gregory also considers
them mighty mean Indians 10 ges
along with, and does not approve Oh
the pusillanimous milk and water
noiicy Of Vincent Colyer. When these
Indians are properly subjugated with
nowder and lead Arizona can be lived
in and operated In to advantage. Inc
