ga Fiendish Ghoul.v

In order to show that we were not
alone in protesting against the ghoulish
attack of the Gazette on John Murray,
we reproduce the following, from the
Lafayette Courier. The writer evident.
ly knows Garter, and understands the
subject whereof he speaks:
Carter, of the Gazette, makes the un-
timely and sad death of Mr.. John MUIR
ray, by sufocation in the burning City
Hotel at Corvallis. the occasion for a
homily upon deceased's chances for
heaven and Immortality, and concludes
they were slim indeed. John Murray
was a specimen of Gods noblest handi-
work, an honest man, true patriot,
philanthropist, gentleman. A man of
large and generous heart and kindly
impulses, John Murray's greatest weak
ness was his love for his fellow mortals.
In the truest sense of the term. he was
Christian. In comparison with w.
B. Carter, where both were known
John Murray was immeasurably his
superior in all those qualities which
make men respected and loved. The
majority of.the citizens of Corvallis will
bear US out in all we here say. If be
true that John Murray's fitness for
heaven was to be questioned, we pity
the chances ofsuch simpering hypocrites
and base pretenders as w. B. Garter
his place is to the left and far below
that occupied by the lamented John
Murray, if ones conduct in this life
may be taken as any index to his
hereafter.

How to Dwarf a Town.

IF you want to keep a town from
thriving, don't putup any more build
ings than you can conveniently occupy
yourself IF you should accidentally
have an empty building, and any one
should want to rent it, ask three times
the value of it. Demand Shylock
price for every spot of ground that God
has given you stewardship over. Turn.
cold shoulder to every mechanic and
business man seeking home with you.
Look at every newcomer with a scowl.
Run down the work of every new work.
man. Go abroad for wares rather than
to those who seek to do business in
your midst. Fail to advertise or in
any other way to support your paper.
SO that people abroad may know wheth-
er any business is going on in that
town or not. Wrap yourselves up
within yourselves with coat of imper-
vious selfshness. There is no more
efectual way to retard the growth of a
town than actions like these enumerat
ed, and there are people in every town
who are pursuing the same course every
day of their lives, and to whom the
above remarks are respectfully offered
for their consideration.

FROM THE MoDoc WAR!
THE LAVA BED OURS
The MGD0cs ESCAPE TO THE HILLsI
HE CAVALRY IN HOT PURSUIT. /.
and scar-Faced Charlie Killed

| From the DEMocRAT Extra of Monday. I
Dispatches received yesterday after
noon bring dates from Yreka up to last
night.
On Thursday the stronghold of Cap
tain Jack was captured, the Warm
Spring Indians being the first to enter
the cave and scalp Scar-Faced Charlie,
who was lying wounded. Schonchin
was also killed. Only the sick and
wounded remained in the cave when it
fell into our hands. A party of fifteen
Indians got between the troops in the
lava beds and the camp, and killed a
teamster named Eugene Hovey. The
Indians have escaped from the lava
beds, and are making southwark, close
ly followed by cavalry.
Since the escape of the Indians, con
siderable alarm is manifested by the
settlers of klamath and Del Norte
counties. Shasta county, too, is in
danger of a raid.
The Modocs have been endeavoring
to get other tribes to join them.
Mrs. Meacham was not allowed to
proceed any further than Linkville, on
account of Indians. Her husband is
better.
We learn that there is large cave,
six miles from the late Modoc stronghold
in southeasterly course, the very di-
rection taken by the Indians. This
cave will be harder to approach, and
will protect them much better from the
shells, and is amply supplied with wood
and food for animals, but is some dis
tance from water. Between these two
caves are a number Of lesser caverns
and crevices, but no water. A circuit
of thirty or forty miles will be neces-
sary to be made to take guns and sup
plies to the new stronghold which the
rascals now certainly occupy (or the
remnant which succeeded in reaching
it, They are believed to be running
very short of provisions and ammuni-
ton, and to be much demoralized.

CIVIL SERVICE REFoRM.-The Pres.
ldent, in his inaugural, took occasion to
assure the public of his determination to
carry our reform in. the civil service of
the country, and as an evidence of his
good faith in this regard has removed
the Postmaster at Raleigh, N. c., in Or
der to make room for the appointment
to that Office OF the notorious w. w.
Holden, who, while he was Governor of
North Carolina, in consequence of fla
grant malfeasance, was impeached. con-
victed. deposed from office, and declar-
ed forever disqualified from holding any
position of honor or trust under the
State Government. The administration
ofpublic affairs in North Carolina under
Holden was iuexpressibly disgracefnl,
and resulted in the imposition upon the
taxpayers Of millions of dollars of fraud.

graced by the votes Of Republicans, but
has found a constant friend in the Pres
ident, who now shows equal disregard
of his own professions and of public
opinion in appointing him to lucrative
and responsible Office.

says the N. Y. Sun, no stronger evil
dence of Grants disregard Of public
opinion than his denomination of his
Brother r-in-law Casey to the collector
ship of the port of New Orleans. By
this act he blasts the hopes of that large
class of our citizens who professed to
believe that he did not err willfully, but
through inexperience, in appointing and
maintaining in Office men like Casey.
There can no longer be any excuse for
such overweening confidence on the

withdrawal, provided that the road
agrees that this should be the ultimate

the route to be pursued after the road

the Oregon Central will proceed direct

Written for the DEMocRAT.l
False COlOrs.

Do we ever stop to think how many
of us are sailing over life's uncertain
sea under false colors that is, appear
ing to be what we really are not 2
Seven-eighths of all that is sought for,
honored and admired in the world, is
deceptive, and really has no solid worth,
or becomes greatly reduced in value
| upon arriving at its tue state.
What is there that is suffered to stand
in its own true and honest character? /?
In every sphere of action, in the church
and in the affairs of State, in the field
ofpublic strife, and in the circle of social
delight. we find that everything suffers
from Transformation.
The wooer and the won practice mu-
tua1 deception the tradesman endeav-
ors, by the most subtle art, to convince
one of his business capacity, and strives
to palm off upon his customers his old
and damaged goods, as being the latest
style and of the best quality. The me-
chanic, to convince one that he is a
superior workman, would employ every
artifce possible to establish his position
as such. The politician labors to have
one believe that it is for the good of the
country alone that he is prompted to
accept an Office; and the minister, that
his sermons are entirely original, and
his creed the best. Villainy, under the
garb of truth and honor, seeks also TO
deceive, and thousands have fallen vic
Tins to its power. The poor hide their
poverty, and the rich strive to outdo
each other in show and parade.
The very worst of tyrannies are per-
petrated under the guise of liberty, and
crime fourishes under the guiss of hon.
esty. IF the world should suddenly be-
come honest, abandoning all deceptive
schemes and false sham, what shock
would the fashionable world have to
meetl What cargoes of fnery would
become worthless What tales of de-
ception and mystery would become un-
raveled In short. what change would
take place in every department. of life
and actioni But let us hope that the
day is at hand when everything will ap-
pear just as it should, aud be honored
or dishonored, according to its real
worth.
Let society abandon its false position,
and let us establish only the right, how
ever honely and uninviting it mag-apsi
pear. Let truth only abide, and merit, |
in whatever form it may appear, be re-
warded according to its just deserts.
Laying aside all false colors and de- |
ceptive pretences, come boldly forward |
and proclaim that the foundation. where
ever you stand, is a sure and true one
and that the principles you seek to en-
graft in the minds of the moving throngs
are not embellished with fictitious COW
erings and gilded coloring, in order to
attract the unsuspecting and credulous;
but that they are the plain, uuvarnish-
ed truths, without the glitter and follies
of life.
Then may we hope to see the villain
esteemed as villains deserve; the just
honored as they merit, and the world
progressing in light, knowledge and
happiness. r. w.

The rectory of Falmouth, town in
Cornwall, England, about fourteen miles
from Lizard Point, was recently put up
for sale. Many of the livings of the
Church Of England, as by law establish
ed, are in the gift of the landed proprie-
tors, and they have the right to appoint
any ministers of that church whom they
choose to become pastors of the Chris
tian flock. When pastor becomes
stricken in years, and the owner of a
living wants to raise money, he can sell
to the highest bidder the right to ap-
point successor. The living-that is,
the spiritual charge of the people in the
parish-is put up at auction just like a
horse or an easy chair.
