A Conspiracy to Ruin a Clergyman by a Former
Member Ofhis Church.

The San Francisco Post publishes a
narrative of nine columns purporting to
be the true story of the circumstances
connected with the troubles of Rev. Mr..
Parshall, of Oakland.
Some two years ago Parshall was tried
by the Church Council for lasoivious
conduct with certain members of his
flock. He was convicted and left town,
going to Vallejo. and finally settling at
Heraldsburg, SOnoma. On the 2Sth of
October last, the community was startled
by the report that Mr. p p Sumner, a
real estate agent, who had been prom
inent member of Parshalrs Church at
Oakland, had been the victim Of attempt
ed assassination, and taken to his home
severely wounded. He kept his bed for
several weeks. He showed anonymous
letters, warning him of harm if he did
not stop his prosecutions of Mr.. Parsball.
He finally made an ante-mortem state
ment that he had been waylaid by two
refusing to sign n compact toset Parshall
right, he was attacked as before men-
toned. Instead of dying after this
statement, Sumner went East with his
family. During his absence Parshall
commenced suit against the Post for the
publication of Summers ante-mOrtem
statement. Sumner returned in May
last, and said he had obtained a good
deal of information about Parshall in
the East which would help the Post in
in the libel suit He called on Colonel
w. II. Barnes, who was engaged in con-
ducting the case for the Post, showed
him number Of anonymous letters,
which he claimed to have received dur
ing September, 1871, all breathing n
spirit of hostility OH account of his op-
position to ParshalL lie subsequently
told Barnes that he had discovered the
man who had attacked him, and in n
day or so brought to Barnes Office n man
named Parvis, who acknowledged hav-
ing committed the assault on Summer at
the request of ParshaIl; that Parshall
was an old friend of his, and worked on
his sympathies until he consented to
commit the deed. Parvis also named as
his accOmpliee one J. G.. RogersOn, of
Oakland. n clerk in the employ of Bowen
Bros. He showed letters purported to
be-. from Parshall relative to the cOnten-
plated assassination, which were in the
same hand as those produced by Sum
ner. Captain Lees, a detective, was
called into the case, and made a critical
examination Of Parvis and discovered a
discrepancy which aroused his suspicion.
The upshOt of the whole matter is that
Parvis, and subsequently Sumner, being
confronted with the evidence obtained,
have finally confessed that the whole af-
fair, including the injuries received by
Summer, the anonymous letters received
by him, and the supposed correspond
ence between Parvis and Parshall, were
a conspiracy to ruin Parshall.
1t was determined to proceed at once
against Sumner, aud suit has been COM
meneed against linn in the Twentieth
District Court by Parshall, with damages
at $50, 900, for libel.

oMY SHEEP HEAR MY VOICE.
BY SARAH DoUDNEY.

Il is Thy voice that floats above the din,
Clear rs a silver bell;
We hear Thee, Saviour, through the strife
of sin,
Thy servants heed Thee well;
Beyond all others, through the upper air,
Thy voice comes pure and sweet,
Like chimes that from a steeple tall and fair,
Break DER the clamOrOus street.
Not all, o Lord, may walk erect, and know
The music Oi that sound;
Some cannot hear Thee till their heads are
low,
Ay, level with the grOundl
And vet, for then, ,heart-humbled and alone,
SpuTned as the crowds go by,
There is power in the royal tone
To set them up on high
Thy sheep shall hear Thy voice-on plain
or hill,
Through food or wilderness,
In the green pastures, by the waters still,
In Joy, or sharp distress,
Thy voice will reach them-sOmetimes loud
and near,
Then faint and far away;
q Thou good Shepherd grant that heart and
ear
May listen, and obeyl
-SUHcl,tg NagdziHe.

THERE COMES A TIME.

There comes a time when We grow old,
And like a sunset down the sea
Slope gradual and the night wind cold
Comes whispering sad and chil!ingly;
And locks are gray
As winters day,
And eyes Of saddcst blue behold
The leaves all weary drift away,
And lips 81 faded coral say,
There comes Il Time when Ne grow old
There comes time when Joyous hearts,
Which leapcd a. leap the laughing maid
Are dead To all save memory,
As prisone: in his dungeon chain;
And dawn of day
Hath passed away,
The moon hath into darkness rolled;
And 10y the embers warm and gray
hear voice in whisper say,
There comes a time when we nrJw old
There comes a time when manhood prime
j. shrOuded IN the mist of years,
And beauty, fading like dream,
Hath passed away in silent fear;
And then how dark,
But OH the spark
That kindlcd youth 10 hucs of gold
Still burns with clear and steady ray.
And fond affections lingering, say,
There comes day when we grow old.
There comes time when laughing spring
And golden summer cease To he,
And we put on the autumn robe,
To tread the last decliyity;
But on the slope,
With rosy hope,
Beyond the sunset we behold
Another dawn, with faircr light
While watchers WhiSDeI fhrolloh the uiuIf
There comes Il time when We grow old.

A UNIVERSAL SIN.-There is one sin
which is everywhere and by everybody
underestimated, tolerated with undue
tolerance, and quite too much over
looked in our valuations of character.
IL is the sin of fretting IL is as com
mon rs air, as universal as speech; 50
common that unless il rises above its
usual monotone we do not even observe
it. Watch any ordinary coming togeth-
er of people, and see how many minutes
it will be before somebody frets-that
is, makes more or less complaining state
ment of something or other, which,
most probably, every one in the room,
or the stage, or the car, or the street
corner, as it may be, knew before, and
which, most probably, nobody can help.
Why say anything about it, II is cold,
it Is hot, it is wet, it is dry; somebody
has broken an appointment, I'll cooked
meal; stupidity or bad faith somewhere
has resulted i'm discomfort. There are
always plenty OF things to fret about.
And all fretting is time wasted. This Is
one of the worst things about it, but not
the worst. The worst is that il il a sin
once, twice, three times "a sin; sin
because It is "A folly; a sin because it is
unkindness and cruelty to Our fellows;
and because it is ingratitude to the Su-
preme Ruler.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1, 1875.

L l.
APECULIAR COUNTRY.
California is the most singular cOun-
try i'll the world. 1t has within its bor-
ders more variety of climate, and more
variety of production, and is, altogether,
peculiar country. San Francisco. for
instance, enjoys n summer during which
the thermometer never goes above 20
deg, in the winter never goes below 40
deg. Go fifteen miles across the bay
and you will find it 10 deg. hotter, and
go up the San Joaquin valley 60 miles,
and the mercury will mount up to 1O5
deg. on the slightest provOcatiOn. Then
go on to the mountains and every step
you go up it becomes cooler till you shall
find, if you go up far enough, snow the
year around. So you see you can get
any climate yOu want, varying fIom
that of Greenland's icy mountains to
lndia's coral strand. And its
PRODUCTIONS
Vary as widely as its climate. Wheat
grows to a perfection unknown in the
other States. Rye, barley oats, pota-
toes, and in fact all the grains and roots
produce wonderfully. Fruits are mirae-
ulous both in the yield and quality. 1t
is fashionable to say of California fruits
that while the yield is large they are de-
fieient in flavor This is not true. A
pear grown in California and eaten in
New York will not have the flavor pear
should have, but itmust be remembered
that it has been bounced in railroad
trains seven days, and that it was picked
green. That same pear which is so in
sipid in the New York market, is as
spicy and high favored in San Francisco
rs one could wish it, The oranges.
Strawberries, peaches, plums, apricots,
and all other fruits are just as good in
quality as they are in quantity.
And remember another point. The
Californian has these things the year
round. There is no season of the year
that new potatoes, beans, green peas,
asparagus and all edibles OF that class
are not in market, and Strawberries even
are plentiful ten months in the year.
OTHER EATABLES
are just as plentiful and just as cheap.
The mountain ranges afford splendid
food for cattle and sheep, and the ocean
and streams are full of the finest fish,
Nowhere can so great n variety of fish
be found, and in no waters are they
better.
In consequence, living is very cheap
in California, and not only cheap but
good. In San Francisco n better meal
can be had for twenty cents than you
can get i'll New York for ii dollar But
the country
HAS ITS DRAWBACKS.
There are but two seasons, the wet and
the dry, and the dry season is very dry.
For months and months no rain falls;
and during the wet season it rains al
most every day. If the rain fall is light
during the wet season, IL short crop, or
rather n total failure of crops, is the GER
tain result. In some of the valleys the
rain fall is frequently sufficient to pro-
duee two crops in year, but more fire.
quently one only can be matured, and
total failures ara nv NO ,,,a.,,C tr,aou1.

went to Detroit Ia get Lincoln to bite

had shown that it not only had power
of seizins on the whole country, but the
Government and the South barely stood
by, knowing what they had Ia exact at

THE Quakers are so lovely and
good and irreproaehable n body OF non
conforInists that one almost becomes a
Quaker in contemplating them. The
motto on their lintels is, ''ThOu shalt
love thy neighbOr rs thyself.' Their
practice has ever been Justice. They
can go to the Indians to-day and treas
with them like William Penn himself
The broadbrim seems to communicate
and shadow forth honesty, as the brinI,
dove eOlored bonnet can only cover chas-
tity, truth, and beneiieence. There is
something very refining in the Quaker
garb, ugly as are its shapes. 1t is par
ticularly becoming to the old, and to the
very young; to the middle-aged it is try
ing and mOrtifying to the flesh, as it il
intended to be. The reason of the Qua
ker pre-emiDenee and power, and lasting
quality, was this: 1t has been an unset
fish nonconformity while truth and jus
tice were the shibboleths OF the faith,
charity as broad as the heavens was the
practice and fullillment. The great phi
Ianthropists have been Quakers. They
were wise, too, and eanny in their day
and generation-One never sees poor
Quaker.
