iect they seek to regulate. This danger
is constant and is always imminent, be-
cause Congress embraces more folly and
corruption than could be found in any
body OF men Of equal number in the
country. What therefore, Nevada
specially needs is having representatives
in the national councils that will be vigil
ant aud instant in detecting and expos
ing any and all of the thousand schemes
thar are gotten up, either through igno-
rance or design, which would have n
hartful feet on the only important in
terest of the State. Watchfulness being
so essential, what greater inducement to
fidelity could be offered than self-interest?
Sharon is heavily interested in the mines
of the State. Therefore, that which
hurts the one Injuries the other. His in
terests are identical with those of the
State, and what greater security could
possibly be given for the faithful per-
Torrance of his duty than that identity
and community of INTEREST," None
in the world. 1t is the cue of Mr..
Sharon's opponents to abuse him and
trump up all sorts Of frivolous and
groundless charges against him, but we
think the animus is 80 apparent that we
believe those misrepresentation will
have but little influence.

WASHINGTON, Sept, S.-Senator Robert
son, OF South Carolina, entertains views
respecting the causes which led to the
riotous demonstrations in the South
which are directly contrary to those held
by Senator Patterson. In the first place
he thinks there is an unjust interference
on the part of the community in the little
local broils and troubles which are insig-
nifcant in themselves, and should be
left to the settlement Of those who are
engaged in them. He thinks that the
interference which brings them before
the public are matters of importance
which the people of the community
should not be interested in. The negroes
be says, in many cases similar TO those
reported recently, are given to credulity
and believe that the first representation
that the ku-kluxers, or White Leaguers,
are about are true, and that the whole
country ia flooded with them. Senator
Robertson can be said 10 be Republi-
can to the back bone, one of the most
radical Of radicals, strong advocate of
the Civil Rights bill. and says he stands
ready to vote for it and urges its passage
BRooKLYN, September S.-There are

Moulton's new statement Is published
in full here this morning as a special.
Aside from the arguments of Moulton,
used to sustain his former statement and
to break down that Of Beecher, the most
important parts are assertions that both
Beecher and Mrs. Tilton made their con-
fession to him and third party whose
name he does not give. The alleged
charge Of Henry @. Bowen against
Beecher, Moulton AYERS, were charges
of adultery with five different
women, including one charge of
rape. In regard to the latter
charge Moulton says Beecher confessed
to him the act OF criminal intercourse,
but denied having used violence and al
legged that the woman, though unmar-
ried, had had previous experience of the
same sort.
This revelation Moulton says was
made to him twelve days after the con-
fession of adultery with Mrs. Tilton and
while he was engaged with II. B. Clahin
and others in settling Tilton's difficulty
with Bowen. He told Beecher that
unless he wished to remain in Bowen's
power he must get from the woman in
question retraction of the charge. This
he (Beecher) undertook to do, and he
brought Moulton paper from the
NOuudu NulCu WAS uOt IctIdCtlOu, Uut u
statement that she had made certain
charge against Beecher to Bowen which
she regretted, and that she was now on
friendly terms with Beecher. This letter
Moulton publishes without q signature.
The language imputed to Beecher in
this narrative is perfectly disgusting.
Moulton says Beecher declared to him
his belief in the doctrine of free love and
professed to see no sin in it, but never
theless, when threatened with exposure,
made preparations to commit suicide by
poison. He says also that Beecher re-
newed his intimacy with Mrs. Tilton
clandestinely after he made or supposed
he had made his peace with Tilton by
confession and penitence, and he intro
duces letter written by him to Mrs.
Tilton subsequent to that event, convey.
ing the intimstion that his wife was away
and that she could safely come to his
house. Many portions OF the statement
are grossly indecent.

SAM. j. WILcoxEN, an old and respect.
ed citizen OF this city. received a wound
which caused his death in about fifty
minutes. As is customary in affairs Of
this kind, considerable diversity exists
in the reports OF the occurrence, but 1t
seems to be more generally believed that
while Sam. Wilcoxen was sitting in q
room in the rear OF his saloon. convers-
ing with a woman, Glaze entered the sa-
loon. and not seeing him, penetrated to
the rear room; that, upon opening the
door, Glaze told Wilcoxen that he wished
to settle that matter, or words to that
effect; that Wilcoxen replied that he did
not wish to hear a word from him, ad-
ding an opprobrious epithet; whereupon
Glaze pulled out his revolver and shot
Wilcoxen, the ball entering about an
inch and q half below the. left nipple,
passing obliquely through the body and
lodging above the right kidney. Glaze
was Immediately arrested and taken to
the County Jail. Wilcoxen died about
twenty minutes to FIVE o'clock, or about
forty.five or fifty minutes after he was
shot, having been conscious to the last.
The Coroner was Immediately notified,
and the flags over the engine houses were
hoisted at half mast out of respect to bis
memory. Both parties engaged in this
unfortunate affair are well known in this
city, having resided here some twelve or
fifteen years Wilcoxen formerly worked
as a blacksmith, but of late years has
been engaged in the saloon business.
Glaze, who is better known as "Uncle
Jim," is about 20 years of age, has
served in the Mexican War, and, not
withstanding blood-curdling recitals Of
adventures in which he had been en-
gagged, was considered quiet, molten
sive man. He is said to be AN old sea
captain, and Belgian by birth. He. has
an ugly scar on his throat which, he
said, was caused by wound he received
while fighting Comanches. The revolt
yer with which the deed was done, be-
longed to Wilcoxen, and is an eight-inch
six-shooter of the Remington pattern,
which has already figured in murder
case. About two years ago Perkins. q
we'll known desperate, shot an English
man named Smith in the International
Saloon, without the least provocation
with this pistol-a deed for which Perk-
ms was hung by "60l;" and it was for
this very reason that Wilcoxen, who was
fond of curiosities. priced the weapon

SHARON's OPPONENTS.

Anything to beat Bill Sharon, is the
cry Of the Virginia Independent and its
Deus ex machina Sutro. Now let US see
why these people are so DESTROYS of
wreaking their vengeance on Sharon, and
what he has done to provoke their wrath
As to Sutro. the cause of his enmity is
very apparent. He projected an under
taking out of which he expected to make
an enormous fortune, but was disap-
pointed, and that soured him and makes
him snarl and snap like mad dog at
every one who does not agree with his
way Of thinking. As to the so-called
Independent, that is against Sharon
because Sutro is opposed to him. Going
further, the Democrats are against him
for the reason that he does not train with
their party. and they alone are able to
offer any reasonable grounds Of opposi-
ton. The others, Sutro especially,
are opposed to Sharon simply because
the latter is not in favor of the tunnel.
Sutro feels that the influence OF two Sen.
ators from Nevada, who are not in favor
OF his project. would prevent any further
legislation by Congress. This is where
Sutro's shoe pinches and makes him so
bitterly hostile to Sharon, because he
knows that If Sharon is elected, that all
hope Of securing the additional priv.
leges Sutro tried SO hard to procure last
session, will fade into the blackness OF dis
pair. On the other hand, to the mass of
the people OF Nevada. Mr.. Sharon pre-.
SCENTS qualifications which cannot fail to
commend themselves to the favorable
consideration of every man who takes a
deep and abiding interest in the future
welfare of the State. Sharon is most deep
ly and intimately interested in the bust
ness which is the sole support Of Nevada;
that Of mining. Whatever would injure
this branch of industry, would hurt him !;
whatever would benefit that business.
will be profitable to him. He, there
fore, has lively abiding motive to do
all that lies in his power to protect the
mines and those who own them
from being tempered with by the
injurious legislation which seems
to have such an irresistible attraction
for most Of tho Eastern Congressman.
We all know how of late years attempts
have constantly been made by the East
ern Congressman to tinker with the rules
governing the mines. They are always
