THE Independent party has started
for that bourne from which neither
travellers nor parties are permitted to
return. The latest advices from San
Francisco are to the effect that the In
dependent ticket is dead throughout
the State. In forty-five counties the
Independents have no organization
whatever. The leaders give up the
fight and will not attempt to name a
county in the State which they will
carry. In this county there is no In
dependent party or ticket. The Re-
publicans have stolen the name "In-
dependent" and with it for a disguise
they are running set of Republican
candidates. State Gauger BRIEFLY
and General BouToN, both outspoken
Republicans, are making the so called
Independents fight for the purpose of
electing Republicans to office and re-
organizing the Republican party for
the Presidential campaign of next
year. The people see the ruse. Will
they fall into the trap?
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-08-20

THE Republicans of this State have
imported from Kalamazoo, Michigan,
young Demosthenes named JULIUS
CESAR BURROWS. He is said to be
eloquent-more eloquent than Tom
FITCH or General BIDwELL. He is in
fact a tornado of words and can talk
longer and say less than any other
man now on the California stump.
The Bee of Sacramento says if all
the voters could hear him the State
would certainly go Republican. The
Stockton Leader doubts this and gives
the following as reason for its doubts.
Mr. Burrows was first elected to Congress
from the Fourth District OF Michigan, in 1872
by about six thousand majority. In accor-
dance with well established rule OF that
State, nominated for reelection in 1874
This second term tradition saved him at
least one Thousand votes he otherwise would
have lost. He made a thorough canvass of
his district, while his opponent, Allen Pot
ter, plain Democratic farmer, remained at
home. Yet this"C Columbian" orator not on.
Iy lost all the heavy majority OF his prio-
clnvass, but was defeated by over 800 voters
Al this julius CRsar's eloquence proves as
abortive in California as IL did among his
neighbors at home, the Republican commit
tee have wasted money in indorsing him.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-08-20

THE Democrats of San Francisco
have done an unwise thing in nomi-
mating A. J. BRYANT for Mayor. He
will no doubt be elected as the city is
largely Democratic, but party that
will throw off an able and long tried
member like DIR. SHORE and nominate
a man who but RECENTLY ceased to sign
his name as Chairman of the Repub-
lican State Central Committee owes
its success more to good luck than to
good management. BRYANT is a new
convert to Democracy and owes his
nomination to bank influence,he hav-
ing avowed himself their ally in the
mortgage tax issue.

PARIS, August 19th.-Cardinal Nc
Closkey to-day received visits from
the Papal Nuncio and Archbishop of
Paris. He starts for Rome at the be-

VERSAILLES, August 19th.-The Re-
publican Permanent Committee to-day
presented an Interpolation to NJ
Buffe, Minister of the Interior, con-
cerning the Bonapartist demonstra-
tion newspaper articles and prohibi-
tion of the sale OF Gladstone's pamphlet
against Vaticanism. M. Buffe de-
Tended the course of the Government
and said vigorous measures had been
directed against Bonapartist newspa-
pers. He said he had received no re-
quest to authorize the sale of Glad
stones pamphlet, but would lot au-
thorize the circulation of ptolemies
against the Catholic faith. M. Buffe
further explained that Gladstone's
publications were allowed to be sold in
shops, but were not authorized TO be
hawked about the streets.
PARIS, August 19th.-A Vienna spe-
cial to La Liberte says Prince Milan,
of Servia, has addressed note to the
Powers who signed the Treaty of Paris
complaining that he has not been in
formed of their intentions regarding
the insurrectiOn which is extending
into Servia and which seems to threat
Ell to assume proportions which may
render It's suppression impossible.
InsurrectiOn.
AUGUSTA, Ga, August 19th.-The
arrest of the alleged negro insurrec-
tionists in Johnson, Washington and
Jefferson counties, was continued to-
day. Thirteen armed negroes came
into Wightsville and surrendered. In
Burke courty collision between the
whites and blacks seems hourly immi-
nent. Both races are under arms and
the negroes are reported massed few
miles from Waynesboro. The white
scouts were fired on by negroes this
morning. The Burke people have
sent here to-day for troops, but Gov.
Smith declined to let any of his COM
panies go. A number of volunteers
left for Waynesboro tonight and it is
feared that a fight will soon take
place. About 100 arrests have been
made in different counties. a dispatch
from Washington county reports af-
fairs quieter than yesterday. About
fifty arrests have been made. Comics.
sions have been made duplicating
those arrested. Ex-Governor Johnson,
who is Judge of the Middle Circuit
Court, has ordered a special term of
the Superior Court to convene to try
the Offenders.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-08-20

Judge J. S. Black has written let
ter in which he asserts that there was
nothing wrong in the means by which
General BIDwELL obtained the pa
tent to his land. We believe the
Judge tells the truth so far as his in
formation goes. He was deceived by
his subordinates with whom BID
WELLS agents worked. There is no
doubt but that ten thousand dollars
was paid to some one in Washington,
but it was rot to Judge BLACK.

times springing upright, and requir-
ing to be replaced by force. He ling
cred this way until six O'clock last
evening, when he died. His body was
found to be so terribly emaciated
that although man of six feet in
height, he probably died not weigh a
hundred pounds, and his thigh at the
thickest point was not larger than a
mans wrist. Some papers found in
his clothing, caused inquiry to be
made at the office of the British Ben.
evolent Society, where it was learned
that his name was G. Tindall Shoot,
formerly captain in the British
army, and whose father was a Major
General in the same service. He came
here from Australia in June last,
since which time he has been mainly
supported by the Benevolent Society,
who will bury him. He leaves wife,
at present residing in England.
SACRAMENTO, August Satisfactorily
after IL O'Clock tonight a fire broke
out in the railroad company's sheds,
on Jibboom street. Before the alarm
could be generally given the sheds
were burned to the ground. There
were four large sheds destroyed, with
large quantities of coal and wood
stored in them. The Pioneer -four
mills, the property of HI. G. Smith &
Co., were considerably damaged both
by fire and water. The old Sacramento
gas works were also badly damaged.
Fifteen freight cars loaded with wheat,
which stood adjoining the gas works,
were entirely destroyed. The coal in
the sheds is still burning, illuminat-
ing the city. The damage is about
$4,000.
