LOSING ITS INFLUENcE-T The Sacra-
mento Union is fast losing its influence
with Republicans, who have come to the
conclusion that its fight is wholly a per
soual one against individuals, rather than
for principle, fact we'll stated in Coffroth' S
speech, on our first page of this issue -
While the Union condemns GJrham' rail
road efforts in 1867, it supports man for
Congress in this district, guilty of the
very snme act, and other railroad favoritism
ever since, a man who howls "grinding g
monopoly" but always votes for every
measure for their benefit. The Republi-
can party before making nominations,
even by acclamatiou, must consult the
Union or that paper will ick up the most
rabd Democrat aud railroad tool, and
whitewash him for loc lities where he may
be unknown -Yrekd Journal

ATTEMPTED SUIciDE.-Thomas Bar
rctt, who was committed by Justice
Adams for an assault with intent to
commit murder some two months since
mt Eureka, attempted to cut his throat
with q broken soda bottle this morn
ing about eight o'clock. In his cell in
the County Jail, and succeeded In In
tiicting a couple Of bad looking, al
though not dangerous wounds, before
he WAS overpowercd and h~andcufied.
Sheriff Spires attention IA called to
Barrett by Montgomery, another prls-
oner, who assisted the officer In dis
arming and securing the insane man.
Barrett has been subject to periodical
attacks OF insanity ever since he has
been In jail. and has for the last few
days been suffering from mountain fe-
yer. which doubtless rendered the pres
ent attack more violent than It other
wise would have been. In searching
his cell last evening Mr.. Spires found
concealed an old razor, which he took
away, thereby probably preventing
the would-bc suicide from consummat-
Ing the act Of sclf-destruction.
BOLD RoBBERr.-Yesterday morning
a daring burglary was committed at
the residence of Mr.. Duncan, OH Court
street, near the Methodist Church i'll
this city. Mrs. Duncan happening to
awake ut that time. beheld 4 man get
ting In at the window which Il situa-
ted near the bed, where her husband
and herself were sleeping. She was
for a few seconds too badly frightened
to give the alarm, but flually succeed
ed in awakening her husband, who
sprang from the bed, when the burglar
snatched 4 pair Of pants belonging to
Mr.. Duncan, which we're lying In 4
chair and made his exit through the
window by which he entered. There
was about three dollars in the pocket
Of the pants besides the wood book ="
Of the Manhattan Company. Several
burglaries have recently been commit
ted In this city, and It behooves our
citizens TO take every precaution, rs
we have evidently some daring and
experienced robbers In midst.
