effect, both parties firing too high, but max.
ing line shots. Major Edwards demanded q
second shot, but ss, under the agreement 10
fight, a second shot could hot be had unless
demanded by both parties, and as Colonel
Foster considered he had given all the salts

was settled without further difficulty. Both

Wool Zee colorado.

A correspondent of the Economist
writes that wool growing is destined to
be one of the heaviest and most impor-
tant interests in this territory. There is
no location in the coGntry better fitted
for sheep. The climate is mild, and in
most cases the sheep Craze the year
round. The water is abundant, and the
bunch grass in the valleys is very nu-
tritious. Few lambs die in the fields,
and there are no diseases among the
sheep, and never have been In this terri
tory. While in the southern and west
ern portions of the territory | saw many
large hocks Of sheep numbering thous-
ands was surprised at the number Of
lambs, which seemed 10 be equal To the
sheep. The wool here is very clean and
entirely free from briers. burdocks, etc.

ln EnSiish Esftss1fe Of Awdrssc

The London Examiner says: Mr.. John
son has often been compared with
President Lincoln. The two were indeed
somewhat alike in the early circum-
stances OF their lives, in the poverty that
clung around their childhood, and the
surprising energy and patience with
which they raised themselves to influence
and power They we've alike, too, be it
said to the credit Of both, in personal
integrity; in their absolute superiority
TO any OF the more sordid considerations
with which men look to high Office and
the dispensing of patronage. But in
other respects there was little resemblance
at least AS little as there is between a
Newfoundland dog and bull dog.
Lincoln was full of softness and sweet
ness, of kindly tender friendship and
affections, Of sympathy and pity. John
sons nature was rugged and hard, as his
style Of speaking was rough and violent.
There was vein of curious and genuine
eloquence in Lincoln which was never
found in the hammerand-tongs addresses
of johnson. Lincoln's was, in tact, a
character OF great variety, while John
sons was only strong, self.suiicing, DOWN
right and "dour." Perhaps it might be
said more concisely that Lincoln was a
man Of genius, and johnson bold,
clever and persevering politician. The
latter had one poculiarity in his history,
however, which, 50 far rs we can re-
member at present, is unique among the
American statesmen Of our time. His
public Lille did not eoncla..s wish his
tenure Of Office. Ne retired, but only TO
come forward again. lie did not sink
away into obscurity, but only just before
his death gave some promise OF new
" "departuTen and a fresh political career.

MARX TWAIN, they say, is lending
money at sixteen per cent. Twain was
formerly popular humorist, but he got
rich in one way and another, and ceased
to be funny. A man can not be thrifty
and a humorist, too. Artemus Ward
died just in the nick Of time Just as
people were beginning to sppreeiate the
music that MA. in him, and pay him for
making il. Mark Twain might have
kept up his reputation as humorist
he had died two years ago, but 1t Ia too
late now. II will not help him 10 die.

Outrage on a Married Woman.

Last evening about eight o'clock
ruffian named Refugio Vejar went
into Spanish house on San Pedro
street, near Eighth, while the propri-
etor was irrigating in the garden,
knocked his wife down with club and
committed brutal outrage on her
person. On the recovery of her senses
the woman resisted the ruffian and
finally secured large knife, with
which she gave the man a severe cut
across the face and head, and then fled.
The villain then secured the knife and
bid defiance to the husband and neigh
bors who had assembled, and held
them at bay until the arrival of Off
GERS Benitos and Alfred Carrillo, who
had been promptly dispatched to the
scene by the Marshal. He is now in
Jail awaiting the action of the author
tiles. He is communicative, re-
fusing to give any statement of his
beastly conduct. 1t is to be hoped
that this man will be made to feel that
this crime is almost as great q one as
murder. Crimes of this character are
increasing in our midst, and such
scoundrels must receive prompt pun
ishment.

DEMOCRATIC MEETING.
An OutpOuT'ing of the
People.
Mcconnell, 6anahI and CarriIIo on
the Stump.

Last evening an immense crowd as
sembled in front of the st. Charles
Hotel to hear Mr.. Alexander Forbes.
The meeting was called to order by
Col. G. III. Smith, Secretary of the
Democratic Central Committee, who
nominated Don Pedro G. Carrillo as
President, with the following Vice
Presidents: Hon. Andreas Pico, Hon.
A. f. Coronel, Hon, G. Aguilar, Don
Francisco Machado, Don Francisco
Palomares, Don Tomas Sanchez, Gov.

Griffin, DIR. Kurtz, Mr.. A. c. Chauvin,
Col. E. M. Sanford, Hon. Il. d. Mott,
Mr.. Z. H. Workman, Gen. Geo. Stone
man.
The President, on taking the chair,
made fitting address in English and
Spanish. He read kilograms from
Mr.. Forbes, showing that it would be
impossible for him to be in Los Ange-
les at the time advertised, and ex-
planning that he was doing good DEM
Ocratic work North of us. After this
explanation he drew attention to the
speech of Judge Thompson and gave
it a scathing review. After entertain
ing the audience for a short time, he
introduced General Mcconnell the
Democratic nominee for the Assem-
bly,.
Gen. Mcconnell made a speech of
over half an hour, devoting himself to
dignified discussion of Constitution
al questions. In his grafton the Gen.
eral satisfied the audience, men of all
parties, that the Democracy had done
we'll in nominating him for legisla-
tive position.
Major Frank GanahI closed the
meeting with stirring address, which
stripped Houghton of his mask and
showed him up in his true colors. 1t
was telling expose of the Republican
demagogue and one which the people
will do well to ponder.
