C0WAROlY OUTRAGE.

Last Saturday night, says the Castro
Vile Argus, some n rode up to n
calnp OF Cinnamon employed IN thresh:
Ing mustard for James Caller, and
drawing a revolver, deliberately fired
among them. The ball struck the ur-
fortunate Celestial In the leg, produc-
Ing q serious wound. After this dis
play Of unproyoked brutality, the
cowardly assassin put spurs to his
horse and rode away. Such dastardly
outrages as this should not be tolera-
ted, and the would-be murderer should
meet with the fate he deserves. MUS
tard threshing Il a class OF work that
none but Cinnamon will do; and ut
the present low price of the seed, moth
Ing Is made hiring them. Without
them, however, much Of 1t would have
to be unharvested and left to rot. The
presence OF Cinnamon in our valley Is
something that Is actually necessary In
harvest time |; and their work conflicts
with none other. There Is employ.
ment enough for all and it Is safe To
say that the man who would deliber-
ately ride up and shoot them down un-
der cover OF the darkness. Is not Of the
class who do much work at any time.

FINANCIALLY CONSIDERED.

The Humboldt Silrcr State of Satur-
day shoots of the following: John p.
Jones has gone to San Francisco.
1.-The King who came to marshal us"
has departed. The heavy decline In
stocks has caused great tribulation and
anguish in the royal bosom. the re-
tainers are respondent and desertir 6,
and faint are the notes Of the trump
euer. The royal proclamation. declar-
Ing that millions would be spent In
purchasing the successorshlp to Nye,
attracted the unprincipled Of all par,
tles, whose patriotism Is concentrated
In "coin," to the Jones standard. BY
a fell swoop OF the stock board those
millions have disappeared and with
them the titles. the aspirations aid the
retainers Of Jones. The trumpeter',
even, Is visibly affected, and though
paid in advance for his services, his
notes partake more Of wailings than
commands. Jones Il sick, financially,
the p~ulsations of the stock board indi-
cate his condition. His recovery Is
possible. A rise In the Comstock may
retrieve his fallen fortunes, but II the
decline IN mining stocks continues, the
Ring will have to seek another an
didate, or make liberal advances to
John p. Jones. His boosted ability to
purchase a seat in the United States
Senate was q little ahead Of time.

We do not remember that We ever
told the story Of Parkinson's gunboat.
Parkinson was In the navy. and dur
ing the war he conceived an idea that
he could build a very small and light
gunboat which would carry a heavy
gun, so that expeditions could be un-
dertaken up shallow rivers. The De-
partment gave him permission to try
the experiment, and he built a boat In
accordance with his theory. The hrst
time she went into action was down IN
the waters Of South Carolina. Inc
commanding officer of the troops upon
one of the Islands sent Parkinson mp
stream with his craft, with orders TO
fire ut q certain fort. Parkinson pad
died up for about two miles, aud then
loading up his II big gun, he aimed
at the rebel works. It was very SIN
gular. but entirely true, that the ooa'
was 80 light that the ball In the gun
remained stationary, while the boat
was fired away from It two miles down
stream, whtre 1t lit among the Union
troops and killed three priVates ana a
corporal. The ball WAS afterwards
found In the stream exactly at the spot
where the gunboat stood.

Union Republican Ticket.
THE ELECTIONS TOMORROW

Politically tomorrow will be an
eventful day, as State elections will be
held In Pennsylvania, Ohio and In
diana. The result Of these canvasse'
will significantly foreshadow the Pres
iiential result. In Pennsylvania all
exasperating conflict Is going OH be-
tween the leaders Of the Republican
party. Simon Cameron and his
friends are working to sustain the reg
ular nominees, while Forney, Mcclure.
Governor Curtin and other dlstln-
guished Republicans are bitterly OPP
posing them. It were idle to attempt
to prognosticate the result, and we can
only confidently hope that u party
may carry the State. In Ohio the Re-
publlcans are thoroughly aroused. and
will most assuredly triumph. In no
State are the political p,rties so thor
oughly organized As they are In In
diana. There Il not a district In IL
which has not been canvassed most
closely, and there Is hardly a mat In
the State whose political proclivities
are not known. Both parties will
enter the fight with a determination to
win If human efforts can avail, and the
result 10 man can foretell. The
stralsht-out Democrats In Indiana will
throw 8 large vote for Grant and VIII
SON, which may give US the State.
Hendricks, the Liberal candidate, Is
very popular with his party, and will
without doubt receive a large vote.
We would doubtless please many
of our readers II we should announce
In advance that all these States will be
carried by the Republicans, but as the
result l. uncertain. we prefer to wait
and see. Much hinges on these cleo
tious; either party which may carry
them will DO strongly encouraged
and should the Republicans gain a VIC
tory In Ohio, Pennsylvania aud In
diana, the contest would BE- virtually
ended. for Greeley would not hayo the
remotest chance Of succeeding In the
Presidential election. Should he, how
ever, succeed In Indiana and Pennsyl-
vanla, the contest may DO a close one.
When to-morrow's shall have gone
down, events will have taken place
which will considerably encourage Of
discourage the Republican party of the
whole country. Until then let Us be
strong In the faith that the justice Of
our Cause will insure US a gloriou:
victory.

A Card from Horace Greeley.

The Tribune will tomorrow publish the
following:
A CARD. The undersigned resumes the
editorship of the Tribune, which he re-
linquished on embarking in another line of
business six months ago. Henceforth it shall
be his endeavor to make this thoroughly in
dependent journal, treating all parties and
political movements with judicial fairness and
candor, but counting the favor and deprecat-
ing the wrath of no one. If he can hereaf-
ter say anything that will tend to heartily
unite the whole American people on the
broad platform of universal amnesty and inn
partial suffrage, he will gladly do so. For
the present, he can best commend that CO n.
summation by silence and forbearance. The
vctors in our late struggle can hardly fail to
take the whole subject of Southern rights and
wrongs into early and earnest consideration,
and to them for the present he RENTS it.
Since he will never again be can
didate for any Office, and is not in
full accord with either of the great parties
which have hitherto divided the country, he
will be ahle and will endeavor to give wider
and steader regard to the progress of science,
industry and the useful arts, than partisan
journal can do, and he will not be provoked
to indulgence in those bitter personalities
which are the recognized bone of journalism.
Sustained by generous public,he will do his
best to make the Tribune power. broad
er field it now contemplates, az, when human
freedom was in peril, it was in the arena Of
political partisanshIp.
