A letter from LOVES Lake. Lake county
20 the San Francisco Chronicle, says:
There is good stuff in those young s,ers O,

girl OF six or seven years, made her appear

brother. Claude is about twelve years old.

when the children started, taking q dog

OF them until dinner time in the evening.
Then she bee came alarmed. Night ap-

consisting OF some ten or twelve miners.
started out, some on horseback and some
down on the still valley With a quiet
that seemed like death. The mother be-
came frantic. She heard an occasional gun
fired Of, and knew that it was the Doctor
and men IN pursuit of the lost children.
She could NOT remain in the house another
moment. She took the direction Of the
guns reports, as well as she could, and
started ait ar the crowd. It was midnight
when she came up to them. There was
scarcely halt garment of any kind on her
body. She seemed to have passed through
dczeI deaths all but the dying. From the
time she joined her husband and the other
men she led the crowd until, about three
o'clock in the morning, they heard a dog
bark, and in another moment were with
the children, who were Instantly wakeped
by the noise. Then it was, 'Howd'e do,

not right to take part in that election, or
must the White Leagues have 1t all their
own way without the least opposition?
The mystic chords of memory, stretching
from every battlefield and patriot grave to

this broad land, will yet swell the chords Of
the Union, when again touched-as surely
they will be-by the better angels of our ma

about as much common seDse in his inter-
course with men as Horace Greeley had, and
that the women have always been trying to
pet him, and have made great spoiled baby
of him. He is a sentimentalist, an enthu-
siast, a man Of eXaltations and depressions-
a Switzerland of a fellow-with a wonderful
capacity for describing his moods, man of ex-
aggerated emotions and picturesque phrases.

The Basques, among whom Don Carlos,
the Bourbon pretender, is maintaining him
self, are entirely different from the rest of the
Spaniards in race, language, and manners.
Their language cannot be c!assed with any of
the families of speech, and the judgment of
phlologsts is that ''t stands alone among the
families of mankind" The Romans found
the Basques in the district that extends
around the angle of the Bay of Biscay from
Balbao to Bayonne, and there the Basques
have remained ever since. Neither the his
torian nor the archeologist has been able to
trace them to any other part of the earth.
They number 100000 ON the Spanish side of
the Pyrenees, and 100000 on the French

Current Notes.

We know full well the drift of public opin-
ion is largely in favor of Jesse Pomeroy's
hanging, that many esteemed friends are for
this course, but convinced as we are that this
wretched boy is no more to be held RESPONSE
BILE for his horrible mania than maniac is,
we believe his hanging will be most horrible
judicial murder, and the most terrible blow at
the entire gospel of strangulation it has re-
ceived tor a quarter OF century.-BoStoR

Gen. Hawley's impulses, we may safely say
have leaned to the moderate side. He is a
man of very superior intelligence, as well as
one of strong, go-ahead abilities, of leaderly
characteristics throughout. He led the wrong
way, and must take back seat until the
democrats run their course, until the Grant
party disappears from the scene, when in the
course of nature, there will be republican
reaction. Like Blaine, Hawley will have to
wait.-L0uiSUiJte Courier Journal.

II is said that the story that Colonel Long

IT is said that the story that Colonel Long,
the African explorer, has been recruiting a
regiment among the Niam-Niam or African
Pygmies, for the services Of the Khedive OF
Egypt, is untrue. 1t is a pity; for such body
of soldiers would be picturesque, and its ap-
pearance within the bounds of civilization
might 60 far to restore faith in the good old
historians. The dwarfs are very malignant
and are irreclaimable cannibals; but it would
probably be easy to furnish them with their
accustomed diet. Certain scientists hold the
opinion that the African dwarf is the long
sought for 'fmissing link"

THE opinion is freely expressed over the
water that the Tichborne trial will retard uni
versal suffrage in England fifty years. A
large body of the population really believe
that the claimant is the rightful Baronet, and
that the judges and parliament have entered
into conspiracy to defraud him of his due.
Very decent people hold this view, and the
existence and spread of so great delusion
are weakening the argument for suffrage. The
governing classes will never be willing to give
the franchise to a body of men so narrow and
unintelligent

FOrty-FOurth COngress---Extra Session
Of the Senate,

WASHINGTON, March 5.-The crowd
In the Senate galleries to-day was larger
than at any time since the Inauguration
and the floor was crowded before the
Senate was called to order. The great
est anxiety was manifested to ascertain
the location of the seats of Andrew
jackson and the prominent new Sena-
tors. Mr.. johnson was assigned seat
on the outer row of the Democratic
side that was formerly occupied by Mr..
Bogy, who now has O seat formerly oc-
cupied by Mr. Alcorn. Mr.. Dawes has
the seat which Mr.. Chandler occupied
Upon the desks of Messrs. johnson and
Dawes were large boquets. Mr.. Burn
side was welcomed by the chipping of
hands in the galleries.
Vice President Wilson called the
Senate to order at 12 o'clock and after
the reading of the proclamation by the
President, the oath was administered to
the new Senators. AS Mr.. johnson ad-
vanced to the Clerks desk to take the
oath, there was great applause in the
galleries, which was soon checked by the
Vice President. After he was sworn in
a large bouquet was handed him by a
page, and he was escorted to his seat by
Mr.. Bogy.
All the new Senators having been
sworn, Mr.. Morton offered a resolution
acknowledging the Kellogg Government
In Louisiasa, which was laid over at his
request. He then offered a resolution
to admit Mr.. Pinchback as Senator from
Louisiana, and gave notice he would ask
its consideration perhaps on Monday.
At 1920, on motion of Mr.. Freling-
huysen, the Senate took recess till /.
Immediately Senator johnson was sur
rounded with visitors and he was busy
shaking hands till the close of the recess
Vice President Wilson stepped down to
his seat and gave him a cordial greeting
Messrs. Caperton, Cockerill, Jones, Of
Florida, Moxey and Withers took the
modified oath, having been engaged in
the rebellion on the Confederate side.
Senators Booth and Sharon have not vet
arrived. Upon resumption of business
Messrs. Edmunds and Stevenson, the
committee appointed to wait on the
President, reported he would commun-
cate with the Senate Monday next, tin
which time the Senate adjourned.

baS~ The passage of Civil Rights Bill,
andthe fact that it is now law, is oc.
c0sioning revolution in hotel keeping
in many places, and there is likelihood
Of some conflicts between the State and
federal authorities. In the Virginia
House of Delegates bill has been in
troduced which provides for the punish
ment of parties creating disturbances in
hotels, theaters and other places of
1t provides that persons
who create disturbances in hotels by
boisterous demands for accommodations,
after the proprietor or his agent has de-
clined to entertain them for wantof room
or other reasonable, specified causes,
shall be punished by fine and imprison-
ment. In the case of theaters, man.
ayers are to have the the right to issue
reserved tickets stamped ''not transfer
aide, and when party not the original
purchaser demands admittance the door
keeper can refuse him, but the price of
the ticket must be refunded, and if he
refuses to take the money and thereby
creates a disturbance, he is liable to ar
rest and fine. In both cases half of the
fine goes to the hotel keeper or manager,
as the case may be. There are similar
provisions regarding steamboats, and
railroads.

BsS~ Mrs. Jesse Fremont, in her en-
tertaining sketches of "Distinguished
People she has known" pays merited
tribute to the memory of that famous
frontiersman, Kit Carson, refuting the
falsely fcticious light in which the poet
of the Sierras has placed him. She
says:
"He was certainly no savage rake or
ruftler. His domestic life was as regular
and blameless as that of any deacon in
New England. Even in his resentments
he was as sincere and steady as clock
work. He once said, speaking of man
who had treated him unhandsomely, eff
ever get the chance will do him an
honest injury" A volume could scarce
ly give more vivid idea of the old
frontiersman than this phrase.
