years by the adulation Of an admlrlrS

naughty egotism which has overmas-
tered his better qualities, taught to re-
gard himself as a pillar Of the State,

bility, the events OF the last few
months must have shattered his sensi-

doubt that he believed himself fully
capable of crushing President Grant,
and of preventing his denomination.
and it is equally certain that he belieV-

would have allenated them from the
Republican party. His efforts In both
directions failed, aud signally. His
diatribes against Grant have already
been consigned to oblivion. and tho

INTERESTING CASE OF DAMAGES.
From the S. F. Bulletin OF Sept. 18th

From the S. +. Bll!ctin OF Sept. 4th.I
An interesting case came before the
Third District Court yesterday, III
which W. ii. Green sues the Lake Sill
perior and Pacific Fuse Company to
recover $i0.0 900 damages. The plain
till was represented By McElrath "
Osment, and the defendant by their
agent for this coast, IRodman GibbonSl,
and W. IL. Rhodes. The plaintiff tes-
titled that he had been mining for sew
eral years. and in his business became
familiar with the operation OF blasting
aud Giant Powder. and u,ed the Eagle
fuse, manufactured for defendant ut
Santa Cruz. At the time Of the acci-
dent he was mining near lllm!lt"n,
White Pine, and had purchased some
of the fuse ut that place. He went Into
the tunnel. which WAS eight or ten
feet long. and inserted a half cartridge
of the GIANT Powder and one end OF
the fuse, using a section about thirty
Inches In length. lie held the free end
of the fuse In his left hand, applied thu
match with his right hand. He heard
u kissing sound. and knew no more till
he found himself lying OH his face near
the mouth Of the tunnel, bleeding ter
ribly and unable to stir. Finally one
Of his men came. lifted him up. aud
assisted him t. walk To Hamilton for
surgical aid. The lett hand and arm
were terribly lacerated, the thumb
blown oil. aud his face aud breast We're
also badly wounded. He showed a Sec
ton OF tile fuse and testified that, i'll
stead Of burning down slowly, it blew
out and ignlted the blast instantly.
The defense will probably Introduce
scientific witnesses to testify and de-
scribe the nature Of the fuse and Of
Giant Powder, and the methods Of
using them, to show that the explosion
occurred by his W fault.

MARKET poR BASE BUILIoN.-C. b.
Rustiu, agent for the Omaha Refining
Works, was in Eureka yesterday, says
the Sentinel Of September 4th.to inves-
tigate something Of the capacity of our
furnaces to supply lead bullion for the
Eastern market. We understand he
proposes to purchase bullion either at
the furnace or delivered at the railroad.
and that the Omaha works are Of u
capacity to separate any desired
amount. We think it might be Of
interest for our furnace men to en-
anime the relative advantages ofship-
ping their bullion east or west. We
presume the chief obstacle to sending
east is the charges on the Central. as
much freight is charged to transfer
bullion from Palisade to Ogden, as
from Palisade to San Francisco.

OK the subject Of the right Of way
through tho Indian Territory, the Gin
cinnati Chronicle has a sensible article,
(which expresses Jul sentiments) con-
Guiding rs follows:
Whatever construction may be put
upon our part Of the Indian compact,
this Territory cannot, of course, be
allowed to become a barrier across the
continent. All the interests Of our nd
vancing civilization forbid it. But the
Intercourse laws should. at all events,
be inflexibly enforced. and white men
be prohibited from settling within the
borders of the rel meu's land. To
open the way for the iron track we
may be actuated by the highest mo-
tives. but white adventures should not
be allowed to take advantage OF this
undeniable breach Of faith.

THE FIRE At EBERHARDr. I'VE viSi-

Nees the ruins Of the International
mill. 1t Is impossible to say to what
extent the machinery Is damaged. The
fire spread rapidly, about the time the
shifts were changing, but through the
cxertlons Of the men belonging to the
mill there being an abundant supply
Of water the surrounding buildings
aud wood were saved. The assayer
succeeded in saving all his implements
and timehooks. The regular cleanup
was to have taken place yesterday,
and 1t was expected to be the largest
ut any time since the mill has been
running. 1t Is understood that the
mill Is insured nearly up to its cost.

n formal vote

By a State law Of California, uniform
quality of paper for ballots must be
used BY voters. This Ii a good law.
and we hope n like it will be passed
by the next Legislature Of this State.
The object of voting by ballot instead
Of rira voce, Is to prevent any voter
from being intimidated or coerced to
vote against his inclination. Where
all the ballots are printed on the same
kind of paper, u man can vote without
the bystanders knowing what candi-
date or party he iavors.

The report Of the board of state charities gives
a favorable account Of the condition and useful
ness of the reform school at Wcslboro. The
number of pupils October 1 1870, was 2G1; the
number admitted during the year was 2i1; the
number discharged 200; the number remaining
October T. 1871, 272. Labor is valued as an i'm
portant. part Of the moral discipline of the nst-
tuition. lis good effects are more or less abund
ant according as it is well or i'll adapted 70 the
condition; and wants of the laborer. Agrcul-
tural pursuits supply continual change and
variety, and on thar account are believed1o give
mere opportunity for re(ormatory influence than
mOnotonous work within doors. In regard
to the charges of cruelty, to which we called at
tention last summer, the report says;
Public attention has been called, during the
year, to the charge of cruelty in the discipline
Of the school. Although these charges are
traccable TO disaifected persons, who owe good
will rather than ill-will TO the institution, they
would have made but little impression it they
had been entirely groundaSS. The trustees
admit that there have been few cases OF Sc
we're and excessive punishment, and both the
superintendent and trustees took immediate
measures to guard against their repetition. The
intention is, so far as OsSible, to make the gov
eminent parental, and, when tue action on the
part of the govern Il Is nlal the government
can easily be parental. But it is not easy to
govern an army by parental discipline, nor
penal Institution, for many of tile acts of the
governed are exceedingly unilal
There have been some cases of severe pun
ismcnt, but a punishment may be severe and
not be excessive. Imp isonment for life is
severe punishment, but not excessive for the
crime ofdelibcrate murder Apunishment may
bc excessive but not be severe. 1t is excessive
when it is greater than is necessary to secure the
object sought.
The trustees think that "the morale and dis
cipline Of the institution have been somewhat
affected by the discussions in the newspapers
for such discussions, read and talked over by
the boys, tend to augment the very evils COM
planned Of"
The influence of the omnipresent reporter is
felt in the administration of all public institu-
tons. He is usually led by his benevolence
to depict their appearance at anniversaries and
exhibitions in rather roseatc hues. The managers
doubtless avail themselves of these reports when
laudatory and of newspaper discussion TO
strengthen the morale and the discipline OF the
institution, by reading them to the boys. In
fairness they should be allowed to hear what the
newspapers say on the other side.
