A Servian Trage DIV.

The recent arraignment for murder, in
San Francisco, Of a Sclayonian emigrant
named Ross, gives the journals of that city
occasion to recall the beginning of the dark
and curious story Of the present culprit's
crime in what was known two years ago as
the tragedy of Cherokee Flat At the
last named place, which is situated in
Butte county, Cal, and still retains part
OF It's original Indian population, a gentle
man owning large ranch had as a guest
In his family, in the spring of 1871, a
young lady named McDaniels, from anOth-
er part OF the State. Amongst his agri-
cultural laborers was a Servian about thir-

vich, who had previously worked for the
father OF Miss McDaniels and lost his stu.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: l have been
spending a few days here in viewing the
objects Of note and admiring the grandeur
of the Nations Capital, and if time and
space would permit ! would like to tell the
readers of the CHRONICLE something
about the grounds around the Capitol the
buildings, the magnificent pictures, and
other beautiful works of art; and also to
rive them some idea of the botanical gar
den, the agricultural the patent office and
other departments; and especially would
| like to tell them how greenbacks are
made, for you know all are anxious about
the making of money but to tell one
hundredth part of the story would take up
too many of your valuable columns.
This being Saturday the Senate is not
in session, but our grave Senators are
taking their rest, while the House is at
work on private bills.
Yesterday and last night the House had
under consideration the Indian appropria-
ton bill, which brought forth a rather
warm discussion
1t is the general opinion that the civil
rights bill will be smothered this session;
but should it COME up, look out for dOdg-
ing. Some of the sentiments expressed by
leading Spokesman in the recent meeting
of the colored people of our State, seem to
be anything but popular here.
There are several visitors mere from len
nessee. They all seem to be having fine
time, and taking things easy. l have also
met part of the Insane Commissioners
from East Tennessee, who came to exam
inc the buildings and the workings of the
Insane Asylum of this place.
/ was pleased to meet, while in the city,
Capt. o. n. Miller, of Strawberry Plains,
Tennessee, the efficient Clerk of the House
Committee on Banking and Currency, of
which the Hon. Horace Maynard is Chair
man. Capt. Miller was true and faithful
soldier during the late war, and while in
battle received a severe wound which dis
abled him for life. He is worthy and well
qualified TO ill the honorable position to
which Mr.. Maynard has appointed him !;
besides, it is right and proper that the
Union should never forget her wounded
soldiers. Such appointments meet with
the hearty approval of the people at home.
4 prominent Tennesseean is likely to be
appointed to fill the seat made vacant by
the death of the late Judge Milligan.
A party of congressman and other dis
tinCuished characters went off on fishing
excursion this morning. / don't know
what kind of fisherman a Congressman
would make, but should they prove as sue
cessful to-day as fishers of fish as some OF
them have proved in the past to be fishers
of men, their boat will doubtless be well
laden upon their return this evening
up the classic Potomac.
Yours as heretofore, GNoRTS.

TEE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

There j. still uneasiness in business cir
Giles over the unsettled condition of legis-
lation on the financial question. The New
York Times says:
1t would be idle TO deny that
there is decided feeling of uneasiness,
and even of anxiety, among a considera-
ble number of our business men. Money
is not stringent; on the contrary it is
abundant at the principal financial centres.
Credit is not contracted it is rather the
reverse, and business paper, which in No
vember submitted to discount of fifteen
or twenty per cent, is now readily dis
posed of at seven. There is plenty of all
kinds of goods in the market, but trade is
dull; theordinary spring demand is among
the things that are not; money, though
easily obtained, can not be invested to ad-
vantage when it is got, and the business
affairs, the business men of the country,
are, relatively, standing still.

HAPPY JOHN.

Col. John G. Burch has done gone and
done it," The urbane Colonel has been in
a state of perpexing uncertainty for several
months past. As Chairman of the Demo
cratic State Central Committee, he couldn't
"most always sometimes tell " whether to
trust his committee or not. He was not
certain whether the elements composing 1t
would mix without explosion. He was,
no doubt, anxious for a meeting, but dread
ed the results. 1t might be harmonious
and pleasant, but of this he was not well
assured. But the opportune time has ar
rived, and he has called the meeting for
Nav DIST. Every member of the commit
tee is earnestly requested to be present.
If any demonstrations are made on the
occasion looking to revival of the UNI
pleasant issues of 1872, instead of reading
the riot act or one of his semi-monthly
circulars, it is the intention of our good
looking Comptroller to just call the House
to order and read the proceedings of the
late colored convention at Nashville. This,
he thinks, will put a quietus upon all the
obstreperous ones. He will use these pro.
ceedings in the SAME spirit in when
nurses and mothers sometime tell
ugly stories to brighten naughty
children and keep them quiet He
will edify the committee with hideous pic
lures of NEGRO equality " and show them
how "big buck niggers are going to
marry their daughters, unless they forget
all other issues and keep the party intact
on this alone. That convention has no
doubt helped John Circular out of big
scrapen and has furnished the solution of
a problem over which he has studied, and
sweat and drank, and, it may be, prayed
Though this is a violent presumption
for half year. 1t would be subject en-
tirely worthy of Nast's attention, just to
see John spread himself on this memo
rable occasion. He is a happy man, and no
mistake.
