Bv the Republican press Of Ohio

Bv the Republican press Of Ohio
generally the appointment Of John A.
Bingham, a U. $. Minister to Japan,
Is regarded as a serious mistake, and
damaging in its effect upon the party.
The following Is from the Cleveland
Herald, Of the strongest admins
tration papers in Ohio:
"'rhe President has appointed John
A. Bingham, Of this State, Minister
Plenipotentiary to Japan. The active
part Mr.. Bingham took in the passage
Of the salary grab. and the pocketiug
Of the back pay by that gentleman,
will make this appointment exceed
ingly distssteful to the Republicans Of
Ohio. Nc prominent man in the State
of the Republican party could have
been the recipient OF Administration
honors whose appointment could have
been more unsatisfactory than that Of
Mr.. Bingham. He was dropped By
his district because he was not popular,
aud that was before he had numbered
himself among the treasury plumber
ers, and before he had repudiated his
contract with his constituents as Rep.
resentative. His agency in the salary
larceny had driven Mr.. Bingham out
side the pale of Republican confidence
IN Ohio, and everywhere else where
honesty Is respected, and the course OF
the President, In giving Mr.. Bingham
this appointment every Republican IN
Ohio emphatically condemns.

From the Record Of juno 1s.l


Mr.. r. J. Mann, we'll known as an
engineer and mill man In Virginia,
White Pine and other places In Neva-
da, arrived from Wallapai a few days
since, and purposes remaining In Pr
oche. Last Winter he went to Walla-
pal. where he found that the ore was
being worked wet, with very small re-
turns. Owing to the presence Of base
metals, not exceeding 40 per cent. was
obtained, and sometimes not over 20
per cent. The mill was then changed
to a dry crusher. with two reverbera-
tory furnaces, by which meant from 60
to IS per cent. of the pulp assay was
obtained. Seventy tons had been
crushed In quantities Of five tons or
less from different mines, and the re-
suits shrowed from $50 to $400 per
ton. The mill was running on rock
from the Rosebud mine when Dir. Mann
left and he thinks 1t will turn ont 5000
to the ton. A ten stamp mill, with a
Stetefeldt furnace, Is much needed in
the Wallapai district. A five stamp
mill Is yielding a handsome return IN
the capital invested, and with an In.
crease in the number Of stamps there
can be no doubt that the yield of bull
lion would be much greater, without
materially adding to the expense OF
working the ores.
Night before last, while vending our
weary way to our lodgings, the still
ness Of the night vas disturbed by the
shrek of a woman. We thought little
Of the matter at the time, but yester-
day learned that a mar and wife hav-
ing had some difficulty. the wife went
to the house Of a neighbor the hus-
band followed. Finally an officer was
called, and he went to tho house; find
ing the door closed and the Inmates re-
fusing to open it. he burst it open, ar
rested the husband aud lodged him in
Jail. Yesterday he was prevailed upon
by interceding friends to plead guilty,
which he did, and a nominal fine was
levied upon him.
To-day the Washington and Creole
shipped to the San Francisco Office &c.
293 so, the ~fineness averaging from
1888 to 800 in silver and So. 007 ingold.
Weekly shipments will be made here
after. This Is the first return Of WASH
ington aud Creole ore from the ANA
dor mill.

About noon day before yesterday
(Tuesday) a maj named Jack Copeland
was killed IL front of Kings drug store
on Main street In Belmont by David
NJ. Hall, an engineer at the Ell Dorado
South mine. It appears that the par
tie, had a difficulty sometime ago at
Star district ; Hall came into Belmont
from the mine on the morning Of the
killing and seeing Copeland, returned
to the mine but was gone but a short
time when he returned and walking
ND to Copeland-who was helping
unload 4 freight wagon-spoke to him
and at the same Instant fired o shot
with q pistol, the ball passing through
the breast Of Copeland, who fell back
and expired In about three minutes.
Hall was Immediately arrested by
Deputy Sheriff Pete Turner and locked
up in Jail. An inquest was held by
Coroner j. w. Hollis, the jury finding
a verdict IN accordance with the above
facts, and Hall was committed to Jail

TuE cholera seems to be spreading


The cholera seems to be spreading
over the Southwestern States. At
Nashville and Memphis, Tennessee, 1t
has been raging for a fortnight past
and has been very fatal. Yesterday 1t
appeared in the District Of Columbia,
and dispatches from Cairo, Illinois, re-
port that at Paducah, Kentucky, five
deaths from cholera occurred yester-
day, while at Cairo there were twenty
four interments yesterday against
thirty-three the day before, a large
number OF which were from cholera.
In New York the weather is intensely
hot and we are daily expecting to hear
that 1t has commenced Its ravages in
that city. Although We were adverse
to acknowledging the prospect, yet 1t
cannot DO denied that its presence
thus early in the season and the fatal
character Of the disease thus far, lead
to the belief that a repetition Of the
epidemic Of 1866 Is almost certain. II
will not be likely to affect Virginia
City, as mountain towns generally
escape, but We shall doubtless hear oil
1t in the California cities ere the Sum.
mer ends.

A D-1saaAcrru1 EXPOSURE.


Bleeding Kansas has been exception
ally unfortunate among her sister
States. Some evil genius seems to
have thrown a spell Of darkness round
and over her fair land which she is not
able to remove. She has been the
scene Of bloodshed and rapine, Of ln-
dian troubles and border Trays, has
been made the home of bandits and
bushwhackers, and her lands plum
dersd from her settlers by swindling
rings. She has been misrepresented at
home and abroad, has been robbed
and bribed by a Pomeroy and disgraced
by a Caldwell, and Ia threatened with
a repetition OF the strong desire
evinced by Pomeroy for the establish
ment Of National Banks. After IN
dergoins all this disgrace. bloodshed,
modification, swindling and bribery,
one would almost believe her cup Of
bitterness was filled and that the wrath
OF the Great Ruler would be assuaged or
turned aside from thi, much narrowed
and abused commonwealth. But anoth-
er shame was deemed necessary for her
publication, and this was uhfortun-
ately ut hand. Hon. ~ d. 2. Lowe,
born In Oneida county, n. T., repre-
sentiug Kansas as Congressman at
large, aud her only remaining men,
Dor in tie National Congress who had
not been publicly exposed as a cheat
aud swindler was reserved for this
culminative disgrace, which would be
laughable were 1t not so utterly
shameless, mea and degrading.

Sad Frntricide.

AN INTOXICATED YOUNG MAN OF 49, KILLED BY
HIS BROTHER.
The details Of q sad frAtricide, in Northampton
Co Va, near the extreme South of this Penin-
sula, have recently come to hand. The affair
occurred June 10th, but as there is no newspaper
in either county of the Eastern Shore OF Virginia,
the news was slow in obtaining publication.
Colonel Thomas the father of the two young
men who were the criminal and victim, had a
store at Hadlock, in Northampton County. His
Oldest son, Levin, was young man Of about "
years, and of dssipated habits. The father in
consequence of the unfortunate habits of this
son, was compelled to remove him and place in
his stead younger son George, boy fifteen
years Of age The father also forbade Levins
going behind his counter, but told him il he
needed anything to ask himself or George. This
greatly exasperated Levin. and excited bitter
jealousy against George. The former week be-
fore his death, had threatened the life Of the
latter, and ran him ont ( the store with an axe.
On Friday evening, June 18th, George was in the
store with no one else present but negro boy,
when Levin made his appearance much intoxi-
Gated and approaching, when George became
alarmed and shut the door. The boy who was
at the window told George that his brother was
coming to the other window with fence rail in
his hand, with the intention of breaking in,
George Immediately ran to the window, seized a
pistol which he had near, and shot, as he states,
without seeing his BROTHER but with the inten-
tion of fright ening him. 10 his surprise he
found that his brother had fallen, dead. In an
agony OF grief he exclaimed; "Oh! Ihave killed
Buddie what am to do r. Some persons, who
came to the spot, it is said, advised him to &c
home, after taking all the money out OF the
drawers. and report the facts. This he imme-
diAtely did.
The subsequent distress of the poor boy is de-
scribed as terrible. A Ooroners inquest was
held on the goth, and verdict rendered in nc
cordance with the facts.
