a NEW PARTY WANTED.

We have made up our minds to organ
ize II new party. We have consulted
with Bro. Pickering and Frank Pixley,
and they approve the idea. The plan up
on which the party is to be formed is as
follows
1st. There must be no managers. If
there are intelligent, competent and smart
men in the party, they must take back
seat, or get out of the party.
I'd. If any man is found exerting him
self in favor of the new party at an cleo
ton, he must be instantly turned out
This new party must run itself, and so
avoid all appearance Of corruption and
political strategy by which votes are
gained and elections carried.
Sd. Any man who is smart enough to
win over to himself delegations sent to n
State Convention, and secure nomina-
tions, is not fit man for Governor, or
any other office. No man with such an
amount of brains should be trusted with
an office of State. We should rather
elect some putty head, who has only sense
enough to make an ass of himself.
4th No man should be elected to an
office to which he aspires. The offices
should be given to those who have not
energy enough to seek them, or who lack
appreciation of the honors of office. Such
men generally do not know enough to
steal.
5th. If there is a man in the party
that we don't like and we can't get him
out OF the party, then it is the duty Of all
the members to withdraw and fform an
other party, or vote with the Democracy.
9th. No public man must admit that
he belongs to the party, or. takes any in
terest in the party and if any man who
has been honored with any office by the
party attempts to take hand in politics,
and assist in directing the affairs Of the
party, let him be mathematical, and lei
Pixley open the slush gates of the CtrOn-
icle upon his devoted head, for what bus
mess has man to meddle in politics who
has been elected to office
9TH. If any man is nominated by a
very large majority in a political Con-
vention, it is conclusive evidence that he
is not the choice Of the people, but that
some shenanigan has been practiced, and
it is the duty of every member of the
party to vote against the party nominees.
8th. 1t shall be unlawful for any mem
Der of the party to vote at primary, or
attend political Convention, for prim-
aries and Conventions are managed by
designing men. And whenever ticket
is made it shall be the duty of the mem
bers OF the party to commence at once
throwing mud upon the nominees, charg-
ing them with all the crimes in the cal
endar. - Oakland Transcript.

THE BLACK VEIL WITHDRAWN

A leading criminal sensation of thu
year 1854 was the trial and sentence of ,
woman known as Henrietta Robinson
the veiled murderess. She poisoned u
saloon keeper in Troy, n. Y, by drug
ging his beer, and attempted to murder a
female relative of his by the same means.
No motive for the deed was ever shown,
but the proc! was clear. She was sem
fenced to be hung, but the sentence was
commuted to imprisonment for life, and
Henrietta Robinson was veiled from tho
world in Sing Sing.
After the commission of tho crime the
woman enveloped her features in deep
black VEIL and her face was never seen
again. During the trial in court she re-
fused to lit the veil, or permit it to be
lifted. Even her counsel never saw her
face /; neither did they know who she was
nor could they trace her by any relatives.
She seemed to have no relations with the
world or in the world. All that was
known of her was Henrietta Robinson,
the yelled murderess." This idiosyncra-
sy gave her wide renown, and there were
many speculations in regard to her birth
and name and the motive-all of which
were as closely yelled as her face
There she sat behind black cloud and
heard the mutterlngs of guilt and the
thunder of the court that pronounced the
dread sentence of death. No one could
mark her emotion. She was impe rturb
able as the Sphinx. The edges Of the
cloud did not quiver. and no ray Of light
shone through. The court gazers were
puzzled, aud the veiled murderess was n
nine days wonder.
She wore her veil into Sing Sing where
she remained until recently, when she
was sent to Auburn. A still deeper vel
had clouded her. Twenty years of prison
life had made her maniac.
The Legislature Of New York latel,
passed bill to open the prison-doors t,
certain convicts condemned for life. Tn,
bill provides that those sentenced for il,
shall be released ut the end of iltteeI
years, provided their conduct has beer
such as to warrant clemoncy-that they
are to have their liberty ten years, ut tn,
end of which time, if no other charge i
brought against them, they are to receive
full pardon. II convicted of crime during
the ten years probation, they are to be
remanded to prison to serve out the life
sentence. This humane law will open the
doors TO many patient convicts, and Hon
rietta Robinson-the veiled mutderess-
is in the category. 1t comes too late toi
her. She will probably never remove he
veil now. She has not been regularly
committed to an insane asylum, and l.
entitled to go free. But whore will sh,
go and what will she do? She was sale
to be very beautiful once, but twenty
years anguish have made sad gloom OF
the light of that c0untonanco behind the
black veil. What n change will be there
when the sun again shines on tho yelled
murderess' face ! 1t will be an object OF
curious interest if she ever shows it in
Troy.-&. Louis Republican.

A VENERABLE African in Alabama
has sententously expressed the principal
cause Of the decay Of Southern prosperity
in these words "Afore de war do white

money plenty. Nowadays the niggers

This mine has never looked better since
the first days work was commenced by
the present supt. There is 800 feet in

large in each one, the ore of high grade
running from 500 to 500. On the front
ledge about 200 feet of body Of ore has

The general run of the ore from this

SILVER PEAK, T. R. Butler Supt.-The
ledge on the 60O-foot level is opening up
splendidly. The vein grows larger as
drifting extends. showing pockets of ore
assayinp as high as $780, The vein
runs through pure quartz. As no sta

james Bass Killed.

Last evening about O'Clock James
Bass, colored man who drove job
wagon, was drunk and disorderly,
and, creating general disturbance on
Main street, was arrested by officers Nc
Kee and Kelly. After being admonished
to behave himself, which he promised
to do, he got into his wagon and, from
what we could learn from general talk,
he turned to Mckee and Kelly and called
them sons of BIS, telling them he was
going to get his gun and come after
them, with which he drove off hastily.
Officers Mckee and Kelly followed down
the street with the intention of arresting
him. Officer Kelly approached the
house on the side toward Lacour street,
and officer Mckee went short distance
around on the other side OF the fence.
Immediately on their nearing the fence
Bass opened fire on them, firing two
shots before either of them had the
slightest idea he would resist an arrest.
Officer Kelly Immediately jumped be-
hind wagon and commenced to fire, as
did Mckee, Bass keeping up swapping
of his pistol, which, after firing five
shots, the last one failed to go. Bass
was struck twice, once over the left nip
Pile and once in the belly. He died about
fifteen minutes after the occurrence. In
his attempt to shoot Mckee be grazed the
side of the house, the ball passing along
side of Mckee. If it had not been for
the wagon intervening, Officer Kelly
would certainly have been hit. We have
taken particular pains to inquire into
this matter, and, from all we can hear
are satisfied that no blame rests on the
officers at all. They were simply dis.
charging their duty, and in doing so I'M
periled their lives. DR.. Deal, the Coro
ner of Lincoln county, will hold ar
inquest this Sunday morning at 81
o'clock at the house of the deceased.

PRoF. W. FRANK STEWART visited sew
eral OF our mines on Thursday last, and
from him we have the following report,
which is worthy of notice as showing the
impression made on scientific men by
the appearance of our mines. He says.
The mineral belt runs a little west of
north and little east OF south. The
general direction running with the
quartzite formation. Thinks it is q per-
manent and well established system.
The Havana mine is we'll formed fis.
sure vein; walls being perfect, clearly
belongs to the system as a permanent
mine. all it lacks being depth. The Ha-
vana is not being worked at present
owing to lack of the necessary capital
to keep the work going when once
started, but the owners are in hopes to
arrange matters satisfactorily shortly.
st. George mine is a genuine contact
mine between the calcareous states and
limestone. The clay seam indicates
permanency. This is a good mine.
Mr. Stewart also visited the several
mines on the west side of the ridge. and
took hasty view of all of them, obsery.
ing the work being done. Lack of time
prevented him making any report on
them. He reported ON the ore in most
OF the dumps as being extremely rich.
Chloride ore full of horn silver.
