Californians have been so often reproved, of
late, for their egOtism, local vanity, and fusome
adulation of their s.ate its people, climate,
soil, productions and resources, that they are
beginning themselves to be conscious OF some
painful misgivings as to the absolute superiori-
ty Of everything Californian to every similar
thing in any other part of t world. Bret
Harte's satire has given them some une .siness,
and some recent travellers have departed from
the beaten track of indiscriminate eulogy to tell
the Cal-fornians, 10 their asionishment and an
noyance, some Of their failings as well as their
virtues. But none Of the outside critics speak
quite so bluntly as this extract from California
paper, which, having discovered social soro
means to probe it to the bottom without finch
Ing:
"The Marysyille Standard has discovered 9
bootblack in his native wild who, by patient in
dusuy and systematic abstemiousness through
number of years, has amassed q fortune Of
forty-hve dollars. Our hopeful contemporary
predicts that he will become millionaire. We
regard this as extremely improbable; the Cali
lorula inclpient millionaire is not W, dded 10 the
virtues mentioned. He usually begins life as a
horse-thief, passes through the virtuous stages
oI knaVery, and graduates as q church deacon,
ne then LAYS the foundation OF stable and en-.
aurlng aiiuence by appropriatin5 the pennies in
the contribution box and investing them in
mining stocks. This he terms 'deyeloning the
natural resources Of the country"

LEGEND OF A CATHEDRAL CLoCK.-The bell
ringer in the cathedral of Wurtzburg has per-
ished under very singular circumstances. The
church possesses splendid clock, with ponder
Gus and complicated works, while pendulum
of proportionate length vibrates to and fro with
dull and monotonous "thud." Recently the
clock needed cleaning, and the ringer was
deputed to superintend the work, though ne
ruefully endeavored to be excused from the
task. 1t seems that he never willingly ap-
preached the belfry, from certain unpleasant
associations. About twenty years ago he had
killed his predecessor in office, accusing him OF
carrying on criminal intrigue with his wife.
When Drought to trial he escaped the gallows
owing to deficiency of legal proof.
Inc patronage OF one Of the canOns then pro-
cured him the appointment vacant through the
death of his victim. Hence, it is said, arose his
superstitiOus dread in connection with the bell
fry, which was supposed to be haunted by the
ghost of the murdered ringer On the morning
when the CLOCK was to be cleaned it suddenly
stopped and the ringer was nowhere to be found
A workman from the town was sent for. and as.
cended the tower, when he was Mortified to And
the pendulum and lower works dripping with
blood Upon searching further, the body of the
bell-ringer was found entangled in the works
frightfllly mangled and crushed. One suppose.
ton is, that he committed suicide by climbing
up the pendulum and then pitching himself into
the middle of the machinery of the clock.
But the wonder-loving gossips of the place
with thoroughly German propensity for the
horrible, declare that the guilty man, upon
reaching the gloomy chamber wherein the
works revolved, was horror-struck by the ap-
partition of his murdered predecessor sitting
astride the great balance.wheel Of the clock
and had then been drawn into the works by O
species of horrible and irresistible fascination
similar to that which the rattlesnake Is said To
exercise over its prey. There sat the specter
rubbing Its CORY hands with hideous glee as the
victim was slowly drawn in among the cogged
wheels and ratchets Of the machinery. An ago

New YORK, April 1S.-A dispatch from
Gainesville, Cook county, Texas, of April 10th,
states that DR.. Dade has returned from the west
He confirms the Fort Lii fight. The savages
attacked fourteen soldiers near Fort Lii, killing
and capturing the entire party, including the
officers. The entire garrison were then called
out, and general battle ensued, resulting in the
defeat of the troops, who were forced into the
forhfcatiOns. Among the killed were several
gallant officers and two Indian agents. Rein
forcementS are ordered from all stations and
forts in supporting distance. Fears are enter
tanned for the safety Of citizens and traders in

The Times Washington special states that the
dispatch to the associated press of recent date
regarding Indian hostilities in New Mexico and
a collision between the troops from Fort Bayard
and the Mexican soldiers, is now entirely dis
credited. The pretended news came by way of
Galveston, which is about a thousand miles
from Fort Bayard.

STRANGE CRIME.
A few nights ago, Daniel E. Hadden was
found dead at a house of prostitution, in this
place, from a pistol shot through his heart.
From evidence before the coroner's jury, it app
peared that he had committed suicide, The YER
dict was to that effect, but last night an in
mate, Flora Clinton, called and acknowledged
that she shot MADDEN, and claimed that she did
1t at his request. She had attempted suicide
since, but failed. 1t is believed that she has nm
