~ The Cincinnati Enquirer says
seventy.two Republicans and IS Demo-
Gratis voted for free salt. Against it we're
80 Republicans aud Democrats. On
coal there were 81 Republicans and SO
Democrats in favor of taking off the
duty. Against it were 46 Republicans
and 10 Democrats. 1t will be seen that
the Democratic party is almost unani-
nous on the question of repeal, and that
q large section of the Republican party is
for the perpetuation Of the monopolies of
the necessaries of life. A pin might as
we'll be stuck there.

THE CoTToN CRop.-The cotton CROP
of 1870, it is now estimated, will exceed
four million bales, no fall falling more than
twenty per per cent, short Of the largest
crop ever grown before the war. Planting
this year is going on upon a still larger
scale, and with favorable weather, the
largest crop ever gathered may he expec
ted. This does not look as though the
South was the scene Of SO much violence
and warfare, as the carpet-bag agitators
would have the people Of the North b.
lieve.

How TnINas ARE WoakING.-There are some
queer features in the canvass in this State The
candidates for State IIarbor Commissioner are
Rosenfeld, u German, on the Democratic side
and McGlynn, an lrishman, on the Republican.
Max Lang, Of Weaverville, received letter this
week from prominent Democrat of San Fran
cisco, enclosing slips of paper with Rosenfeld's
name on them and prepared so that they could
be pasted upon Republican tickets. The Dem
ocrat sending these slips of paper wrote Mr..
Lang that he "knew Lang was Republican,
but expected he would do all he could for Mr.
Rosenfeld." Said the writer, "Of course no
German can vote for an Irshman"

EASY TO CHoosE.-Next week the voters of
Trinity county are to choose between the candi-
dates for county Offices Never before have we
seen such disposition on the part of the voters
to lay aside politics in relation to county mat
ters. TO their credit be it said, the rank and
Ge Of the Democracy are not willing to support
the cut-and-dried nominations forced upon them
in July last. The Republicans support their
ticket for the reason that it was framed to suit
them and represents not only the party, but the
people of the county MS WELL Democrats every
where very well know, together with all well
posted Republicans, that the miscailed Demo-
cratic nominations were made solely in the inter-
est of Tinnin and McMurry. McMurry and Tin
min having everything to gain and nothing to
lose, pat up things expressly in their own behalf
after having " heard from below" aad put the
programme sent them through. This is what
Democrats have right to object to, not only as
partisans but as citizens of the county. The
men constituting the Democratic ticket are all
good enough men personally, but as the repre-
seniaIives of an INSCRIPTIONS and selfish ring
are dstasteful to the people. 1t is not difficult
for the people to choose between the rival tick
cts. The voters of Trinity county will always
be found bitterly opposed to political rings or
cliques, no matter in which party they found.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

A SUICIDE.-Last Sunday afternoon, about
o'clock, Henry Becker, German, committed
suicide at Hay Fork, in this county. Becker
was well known throughout northern California,
he being travelling jeweler, usually making the
rounds of every mining camp ia this part of the
State about once n year, for many years past.
His principal fault seemed to be an Unsuitable
love for strong drink, and that constant use of
ardent spirits at last did its deadly work. under
the following circumstances lie had been To-
Gated at the Carter House, Hay Fork, for several
days, engaged at his business, and it was re-
marked he appeared to be " out of his head u at
times. Only the day before the rash act was
committed, he insisted upon setting clock,
which he had just repaired, at 5 O'clock al
though it was only noon and the sun at merid-
ian. Such harmless eccentricity did not particu-
larly alarm any one and it was not thought that
any harm would result from his strange con-
duct. However, at the time stated above, he
left the hotel, went across the street, only a few
steps, to the blacksmith shop, deliberately sat
down on an ox-frame-used for shoeing oxen
and blew his brains out with an old-fashoned
horse-pistol Two bullets were found in the
frame above where he sat and it is supposed that
the pistol contained more at the time it was
fired, judging from the manner in which his
head was mangled. His upper teeth, nose and
entire top of his head were entirely blown off,
of course causing instant death, and although no
one saw him do it, it is generally thought that
he put the pistol in his mouth pointing upwards
and pulled the trigger. Becker was about 40
Years of age.

ODD FELLOW BALL.--Ths ball came off, ac-
eording TO announcement, at Thomas Theater,
on the evening of August Goth, and was the
grandest affair of the kind that has taken place
in Weayervlle for several years. The Odd Fell
lows fully sustained their former reputation for
giving better dances than is general, and moth
ing occurred to mar the pleasure of any one
present Upwards of fifty ladies were in attend
ance, and dancing was kept up until ay-breAk.
The music from Shasta was excellent, and the
supper, prepared by F. Lackenmacher, was said
by all present to be superior.

GOVERNOR IlAIGHT has never denied Offering
the resolutions which we published last week,
in which he greeted Ihe people of China as " our
elder brethren" The resolutions were publish
ed at the time in all the San Francisco papers
A short time after IIaights Inauguration as Gov
ernor of California, he attended a banquet given
in honor Of the Buringame mission, and occn-
pied prominent position in the midst of num-
ber of " Celestials." At that time, Governor
iIaight, the "great anti-Chinese champion, I"
did use the following language and he does not
deny it:
GAS the chief magistrate of this State, well
come you 20 this city. You have accepted
mission in the interest of progress, of commerce
and humanity. bid you on behalf OF this ma
ton, on behalf of Europe, on behalf of humanity
itself hearty welcome, and God-speed."

egOn, and is said to be an effectual and speedy

that Dixon, Hurst Co. will put off the big blast
in their claim at Dutton Greek, on Thursday af-

This is the first thing of the kind to be tried in
this county, and it is the hope Of all that the ex-
pertinent may prove to be successful, and that a
new era in placer mining may dawn upon this
section. One hundred and fifty-two kegs of pow
der are to be used, and parties who take an in
terest in mining affairs will undoubtedly be well
paid to be there at the time. BY the date named
the result of the election will be known, and de-
frated candidates will find this trip preferable to
an exteaded tonr to the classic shores of 4" Salt

To the Protestant Germans OF
Memphis.

The Rev. Lesko Triest, learned and
wide-awake German Protestant divine,
will address his countrymen this Thurs
day. evening, in the lecture room of the
Second Presbyterian Church, at eight
o clock. He will also preach on Sabbath
morning next, at ii o'clock, in Elk
change Hall; entrance on Exchange
street. Mr.. Triest is already actively
and most encouragingly engaged in
gathering a church among his country
men, over which he expects to preside
as permanent pastor. He comes among
us most highly recommended by the
learned and able professors of the Theo-
logical Seminary in Allegheny City as
scholarly, prudent gentleman, whose
qualifications fit him for any important
post. 1t is to be hoped that the great
and good work in which he is engaged
will commend itself to the sympathies
and earnest cooperation of his country
men, and that there will be large turn
out to hear him this evening, when he
will make known to them his present
plans Of future operations.

PARIS IN FLAMES.

The news from Paris becomes eacn
day more alarming The Communists
bafiied at every point, are now, IN re-
venge, burning the city. The Louvre
and the Tuileries have both been de-
stroyed, and there are reasons to fear
that the Palais Royal, Hotelde Vile and
other state edifces have been prepared
by the Communists for destruction by
fire. Just think of those magnificent
galIerys of paintings which have given
the Louvre a worldwide celebrity being
nothing now but heap of ashes-paint-
ings of the old masters, from which there
we're no duplicates, burnt by these crazy
men. The lovers of the fine arts the
wide world over will sigh with regret on
reading this dispatch. Is there no hope
for liberty, no hope for civilization IN
France? And must the most beautiful
city of the globe, with all its magnificent
works of art, be blotted from the face oil
the earth2 Surely the Evil One has been
turned loose in Paris, and is now hold
ing high carnival in her streets. We
shudder as we think of the dreadful
slaughter and wanton destruction now
going ON in that doomed city.

EDUCATIONAL.
establishments of High schools.

Establishment OF High SchoOis.
When Bishop Feehan, of the Catholic
Church, last visited Memphis, he at
tended meeting of the leading Catho-
lies at which was discussed the question
of establishing in this city a branch OF
the Christian Brothers High School for
boys. The Christian Brothers, whose
headquarters are in st. Louis, have in
that city a splendid high school or col
lege in which the highest and most prac-
teal branches of education are taught
by competent professors with thorough
ness almost unequalled in any schools in
the United States, and at a cost within
the reach of all parents who are
disposed to make a reasonable effort
to educate their children. In addition
to the high school presided over By pro-
fessors, the Christian Brothers will also
take charge of the Catholic parochial
schools, as preparatory to a more COM
plete education in the high school. tits
proposed to erect this school house in
central part of the city, convenient to
every point The Christian Brothers
have agreed to establish branch of
their educational institution in this city,
provided those interested will raise a
fund sufficient to make the first payment
on the property TO be purchased for
school purposes, and the other payments
they assume to pay from the pro-
ceeds of their educational labors.
This proposition meeting the views
of leading Catholics in Memphis, COM
mittees were appointed in the three
parishes-St. Peters, st. Bridgets and
st. Patrick s-for the purpose of can
wasting the city and procuring subscrip-
tons for this laudable enterprise from
those feeling an interest in education
and in favor of high school for boys.
In st. Patrick's parish, the committee
appointed consists Of Col. G. A. Han
son, John League, Esq, Mr.. George
Hook, Mr.. M. V. McKeon and Mr.. James
Roper. These gentlemen, in conjunc-
ton with the other committees, will
enter upon their duties at once, and, in
view of the educational results to be Sc
cured, it is to be hoped their efforts will
meet with encouragement and be
crowned with success.
