social dregs and cinders have been drained
and burned out Of ages Of oppression.
Drained and burned until no vestige of a

creatures are allured with bread from
their native slums. They are allowed to

then after an ecstatic traject through

that smells fresher to them than all the
teas of China. And it is then that the
delirium Of the slum-child begins. To
roll in this hay, to race over this meadow,
to plunge in this pure stream, to be re-

panied with q threat of Federal martial
law as an alternative. He and his
partisans are antagonistic in interest to
our municipal unifers, who demand an
immediate, substantial reward for a
change of faith. The one wing of the
party wants to raise money to be used in
Washington for the purpose Of seating
McEnery in the chair of State, in defiance
of the will of the people Of Louisiana,
while the other hopes by mere empty
professions of attachment to principles
that have been tested for ten years to pre-
vail upon the people to change the authors
of those principles for the proselytes Of a
day. In the words of the distinguished
Senator from Pennsylvania, they expect
to be rushed into power for accepting
what they can not prevent, though they
have devoted years to the vain attempt Of
trying to do it.
We admonished our unifcation society
from the very outset that they were asking
too much. It is not common for peoples
to reward their heroes and statesmen in
advance. On the contrary the complaint
is common one that republics are un-
grateful, and frequently send faithful ser

PLEASANT AND PRoF1TALE VIs1T.-A
member of the Sacramento press abiding
with us in Carson, at present, to whom
Miss Augusta L. Dargon bore letter of
introduction, yesterday, in his agreeable
way made himself escort to this talented
actress and gracefully showed her the
remarkable" places of our little town.
At her own request to see the children
she was escorted to the public school
house and visiting Mr.. Howe's depart
ment remained there half hour or so,
listening to the Rotations OF the chill
dren until II O'Clock arrived-the hour
at which the pupils generally have their
recess. They gave up their recreation
hour to hear Miss DargOn talk, however,
and the folding doors being thrown open
she took the Principals stand and deliv-
cred to the assembled children q beauti-
full lecture on accentuation, articulation,
emphasis and other branches of elOcu-
6on-such q lecture as they probably
never listened to before, and may never
have the privilege of listening to again
for long time. The children were de-
lighted and Mr.. Howe was SO highly
pleased that he gave them their hours
recess afterwards. There is no telling
how much good. how much Intellectual
inspiration may be derived by the school
children from such occasional practical
discourses pronounced yesterday by Miss
Darpon. Celebrated elocutionists who
come here, now and then, might be in
vited with untold advantage to talk to
the children. They would take it as a
compliment, we believe, and as in the
case of Miss Dargon, respond to the in
vitation cheerfully.

MISS DARaoN's BENEFIT.-The theater

MISS DARaoN's BENEF1r.-The theater
was crowded down last night and a pack
encountered the doorway during the
whole performance. Miss Dargon rep
resented old Meg admirably. Her
speeches breathing the spirit of witch
cry and gypsy magic, chilled the blood.
The company did well and came up to
time handsomely. The farce was side
bursting. Barry" Cousin Joe the
old time genuine comedian delighted the
audience. His genial face will ever be
welcome here. The charge of the
Irish Brigade on Fontenoy" recited by
Miss Dargon' was eloquent, transporting,
grand The audience universally were
thrilled by the tones of her voice breath
ing passion and SO true to nature. The
Irish could not help it, and howled.
Farewell to this fine troupe! May they

was overthrown by the violent wind
night before last about IL O'Clock or later,
and fell to the ground with fearful crash
startling those in the neighborhood who
we're still up, especially the printers in
the APPEAL Office who felt the shock
near by and thought that the awful horn
of father Gabriel had made its initial
foot. The pole was put up hastily for
the 18th of July celebration tive years ago.
It was not charred at the base, as it
should have been, and consequently the
part of it below the surface had gradually
1otted, and gave way under the pres
sure Of the stern wind night before last,
breaking off at the level of the earth. It
stood altogethtr one hundred and sixty
feet high. The first sixty feet were Of
mountain pine-a magnificent specimen
twenty inches in diameter at the base
and tspering upwards gradually; the top
mast measuring also sixty feet was
broken into several pieces BY the fall
and is utterly destroyed. The main
mast may be used again-minus, how
ever, some i've or six feet Of hight.
