YoCNG AsHrM's arrival at Independ-
ence is noticed by the Inyo Independent
OF the dangers he encountered in the
journey, q correspondent says: 1.-THE
first shot fred by Perasich at the stage
hit the pistol which Ashim held in his
hand. and the s<cond one grszed the
check OF Mrs. Ashim and passed through
her sleeve. 1t appears, by the letter.
that but one OF the brothers was en-
gagged in the attack upon the stage. one
Of the other men being Sclavonian
waiter at the Ormsby House. who gave
Perasich notice of the presence of the
Ashims in town, and the other was q
man, also q Sclavonian, who had en-
gagged passage on the same stage, doubt
less with the intention of assisting in
the assination, but whose murderOus in
ton was thwarted by Mrs. Ashim, who
induced the agent to refuse him passage
on the coach. Another one Of tho Pera-
SIGH brothers had been laying in wait for
several days at station near Benton,
with the avowed purpose of killing young
Ashim when he came through. but had
returned to Benton before the arrival of
the party. He was in Independence,
however. before they arrived. and but
for the precautions taken by the officers
would doubtless have effected his bloody
purpose before his intended victim conld
have been taken to a place of safety.
The lawless spirit evinced by the rela-
tives of the deceased Perasicb. in their
persistent efforts to murder young Ash
i'm, cannot but inure to bis advantage in
the trial. for they have themselves set
at defiance the very principles Of the
law which they invoke to aven4e the
death of their brother. Aphim will be

Judge =. c. benson.

The people have elected Hon. S. c.
benson Judge Of the Sixth District
Court. and the choice has fallen upon a
deserving man. Mr.. benson has for
several years past enjoyed a steadily in
creasing practice as q member Of tho
we'll known legal firm of Beatty 4 Dem
son. He is young, energetic, capable,
and in all respects Trustworthy and COM
petent. In his hands there is reason to
expect that the arrears of work will soon
be cleared up, and that the business of
the Court will be kept vol abreast Of
the public needs. Both OF Mr.. Den
s.on's late competitors. Judge Ramags
and Mr.. Catlin, are good men, and the
community would have been we'll served
had either Of them been elected. But
We are satisfied. SO high is the reputa-
ton of the successful contestant, that
the friends of his rivals will Join in the
congratulations which those who have
supported him now proffer.-Sa-amen.o

From the 1550-foot level OF the Con.

into the Gould and Curry incline. The
incline IS now full for 100 feet of its

A Talk With Ralph Waldo E.asrsoa

Still he delights 20 talk in an Informal
way with any one who takes . hearty
interest in books or literary men. He
spoke Of Carlyle, who is . pantheist
on the worst side, as Emerson il
phantheist on the transcendental side.
Emerson, who dislikes go much to
hare his home in Concord invaded by

went to England he sought ont Carly Ie,
who was then livingat Craigenputtock,
and unknown and unannounced pre-
scented himself, and was very favorably
received.
Emerson is very fond Of Oliver
Wendell Holmes and James Russell
Lowell. lie said with some appear
ance of pleasure if not pride, I'VE are
all sons ministers" "James" A. he
called him, has been Of late writing
such good poetry that his long silence
can be excused" From Mr.. Emerson
1 learned something in reference to
the mental habits of some of the
poets. Holmes is SO full that he can
write at any time. Lowell broOds
over his subject for time and then
composes with great swiftness. He
does not like to write to order though
DESTROYS Of employing the stimulous
of great occasions. We asked him TO
reat . poem at Concord on the one
hundredth university of the fight,
but he said he could not. His wife, a
dav or two before wrote TO me saving.
Il cannot speak for James, vet l
think you may expect poem from
him on the 18th. He has been going
about for some time in that peculiar
way which is promise of something"

He is happily, better now. Mr.. |
Emerson informed me that q new
book of his will probably be issued
by Osgood 4 Co. this month. This in
formation will account for Emerson's |
frequent and long visits at the |
libraries during the last year. He
has many essays and lectures and
low poems in manuscript. which may
see the light some day. But Emerson
