JUDGE DUNNE, IN NEVADA

The Territorial Enterprise, published a,
 virginia City, IS apt to take fair view of
 all questions. It has always been politi-
 cal 'riend and supporter of Judge Dunne. in
 that State, and now that he has oot into
 trouble m Arizona candidly points out his
 faults and earnestly regrets the folly into
 which he has fallen. It will be observed
 'hat the Enterprise has taken much the
 same views as those of the MINER:
 We do not know all the causes which
 nave united to make Jndge Dunne so un-
 popular m Arizona, but presume the difficult
 " all commenced through Judge Dunne's conduct ln regard 10 school matters. Gov ernor oafford has labored untiringly to inau- gufate system of public schools through
 Arizona. He has succeeded wonderfu.Iy. espe'ially Tn Tucson. That town is se''ieu ln great measure by Mexicans. and Ine schools are Tn great measure filled with the children of Mexican parents. .Judoe Dunne was an old Humboldt County friend oi Governor SaiiurI's, and the Governor well comed him there as friends ot the frontier are wont to welcome each other. He came backed by commission as Chief Justice of the Territory, and with his office and the opportunities offered in that swiftly -advan- eng region, hls prospects ought to have been most bright. But Dunne is Jesuit in religion, and his first act was 10 make war upon the public schools, and to insist that iund should be set aside whereby Catholic children could be educated in Catholic schools. These children had never received any education until Governor Stafford public schools there. or course the Governor resented this act of Dunne promptly and sharply. Since then Judge Dunne has gradually withdrawn him. sell from his friends, and repeatedly intima- ted that his old friends were working to overthrow him. He has not abated one iut of the bigotry that first caused him to make Il foel of himself, until at last the whole peo- pl- have apparently become incepsed and l demand his removal. The many friends of Judge Dunne in this State will regret to | hear such news. He was alway, fool | shy bigoted about religious matters. He | was not only sanguine that his was the right | faith, but he always followed it with -bind | md dogged persistence, which admitted no | fight of free thought to others, aud extended | 10 tolerance to any other belief. It seems | hat increasing age only increases his big stry, and evidently his place is in a mona,- cry, shut out from world wherein he is | making only antagonisms."

Parties from the Peck mines say, that if some one under derstantiing the business would go up in the Bradshaw mountains and whipsaw lumber, aud make shakes and shingles, there could be a good trade started.

Beautiful Things.

A gentle voice, heartfelt sigh,
A modest blush, a speaking eye,
A manner unaffected, free tr- -l-
These things are beautiful to me.
Already hand, a loving heart,
A sympathy that's free from art
A real friend among the few;
These things are beautiful and true.
A mothers prayer, an answeTmild,
An aged sire, a little child, G
A happy home, cheerful hearth;
These thugs are beautiful on earth.
A joyful song, a chorus sweet 7
An earnest soul and willing feet,
A day OF peace, a night of rest;
These thlngsare beautiful and blest
A sisters love, brothers care,
q spotless name, a Jewel rare,
A cleanly tongue, that. will not lie
These things are beautiful, anG why /?
Because they are all born Of love,
And emanate from God above;
An earnest Of the heavenly birth {,
These things are beautiful on earth.

A Female Captain.


A vessel which lately arrived in
NewYork brought the intelligence
that the bark Rebseca Crowell,
which left New York on March
9Th, for Buenos Ayres, became dis
iabled during severe gale, three
days after leaving New York
Severalsof the spars and sails were
carried away, and the captain and
| first mate were injured to such an
extent that they were confined ID
their berths throughout the rest d
the voyage, and rendered incapa-
BILE Of managing the vessel. Thert
was no other persoh on board eI
cept the Captains wife Fho un-
derstood navigation, and she un
dertook thetask of conducting the
bark to the point of destination
The second matewas a young mar
81 years old, able to take the helm
butignorant of the process of max
ing observations. The woman
then assumed the command of the
vessel, took obsetyations, ascer.
tainsd the latitude and longitude,
maintained her place upon the
bridge and directed the course Of
the vessel. After exercising con
troll for fifty-eight days, during
which the vessel encountered VIC

the captains wife, worn out and
exhausted with her llabors, con.
Quoted the vessel with its yalu-
able cargo, safely into the port Of
Buenos Ayres. QUA purse was

Rats in the Mines.


Itis a fact notEgenerally known
says a Nevada paper that the gall
leries and drifts of most Of the
comstock silver mines are tenant
ed by thousands of rats which the
miners will not attempt to kill
under any circumstances. , The
Beichermine absolutely swarms
with rats, who hold high carnival
IN the deserted drifts and among
the decayed tinbers. They live
on the refuse Of the miners lunch
es, Where several hundpsd m en-
are employed and eat their din
ners from their lunch baskets,
which they carry down into the
levels with them, the pieces of
meat, bread and. other articles
thrown away would soon become
offensive were they not removed
or destroyed Here the rat steps
in, and like the vulture which goes
about the streets of a tropical city
unframed and feeds on carrion, he
soon removes all traces Of the
feast, even the bones being picked
clean. For this reason the miners
donot molest the rats, and they
have free license to run up and
down the shafts, scale the timbers
and hold court in the very centre
of the big bonanza.

A SORRY BUSINESS.

/
The New York correspondent
of the Concord Monitor thus pass
es before the eye of the reader in
panoramic view, some of the sad.
fdest features of the Brooklyn
scandal: .l
Now that the suicide mania is
raging, surprise is expressed that
the Brooklyn jury has escaped
These poor fellows have served
five months and not one has killed
himself. What is still more as.
tonishing, no other of the parties
have followed the fashion. They
are too, busy killing each other.
The worst victims in the case are
the women and children. First,
the families of the jurymsn, which
in some instances are sufsring,ths
the paternal help having been cut
of since January. Next, the Til
ION family, including the beautiful
daughter Florence, just budding
into womanhood. She is nov
driven from the domestic wreck
and is trying to support herself by
teaching. To these are to be add.
ed the Rther children and the
mother herself, who was one of the
most brilliant girls in Brooklyn
At present she is broken down
and probably viii not long survive
the trial. Tilton, himself, like his
unfortunate brother Edgar, may
yet be the inmate Of a lunati,
asylum, and many think now he il
partially insane. On the Beechei
side of the house thereis a grown
up and married daughter, the wife
of a popular clergyman in the in
terror Of New York State, and .
half a dozen sons, each of whom
feels the disgrace Of this hofrid
Eafiair. Poor Mrs. Beechef occu-
pies the most trying position. She
is a noble woman, of powerful
mind and more than usual talent
She has seen this storm gathering
for more than four years, and has
seen its effects on her husbands
domestic life. Since the storm
Ihas broken on his head, she has
FASTENED to share it. If Beecher
had possessed one half Of her COM
mon sense he never would have
been where he is. More than this,
Mrs, Beecher has deep sympathy
for Mrs. Tiltons whose misfortunes
are soclesrly the result of Beech
ers errors, and this is an addition
to the sorrows of the case. Peo-
pie have wondered Why Mrs.
Beecher does not go crazy with
this double agony, but she may yet
be wrecked by it in mind as she
has been wrecked in domestic
peace. 5saeia ueais9H
Real estate men in Brooklyn

Iplace in this State is property SC
depressed as in this unlucky city,
Houses are to olet in all directions,

hardly salable. Most of this is
due to the disgrace attached to

SAM. BUTTERwORTH.


Sam Butterworth, died IN San
Francisco few weeks ago. He
was remarkable man in many
respects. Accomplished, hand
some and courageous, he was very
popular with those who knew him.
When Dan Sickles killed Philip
Barton Key, Butterworth's name
was telegraphed from one end of
the country to the other as the com.
panion of the murdered man. But
terworth's first practice was law,
When quite a young man he went
to Mississippi, and was popular
there until the bravos and duelists
of the State decided that be must
be killed in order to be negatived.
A picked duelist challenged him,
or insulted him, and Butterworth
went 20 the field with a great
crowd around, only a few of whom
we're with the Yankee intruder.
The principals were both armed
with a revolver in hand, a revolver
in the side sheath, and a bowe-
knife. The ground was maasured
at ten PAGES. They were to FIRE
from the base line, then to ad--
vance and draw the second revolv-
er, and if alive to finish up the
work with the bowie-knife. But
terworth and his antagonist emp
tied their pistols unsuccessfully.
The antagonist however, shot
away the cock Of Butterworth's
reserve pistol. He drew a knife
and rushed forward, when some
thing human seized the crowd.
They held the arm of the man that
was ready to kill Butterworth,
Let the game Yankee live. It's a
pity to kill him, was the cry !,
Butterworth returned to New
York and engaged in the practice
of the law. but being a natural
leader Of men, with a vehement
nature and an intolerance of re-
straint from othershe also engaged
in politics. BE acquired both
practice and Office, and under Mr..
Buchanan, was at the head Of the
sub treasury in Wall street, Dan
Sickles was then the great leader
of the g boys When Sickles
discovered his wife S intrigues with
Philip Barton Key he conferred at
the Washington Club House, af-
forwards Stewards residence, with |
his friend Buttsrworth. The lat
ter weighed the evidence and the
case. Send your wife home her
mother. Don't hesitate, After
that never see her again,and never
have a scandal about it, for you
can't afford exposure. .,o
! Siokles left. the Clubhouse, os-
tensiblv 10 take Buttervorth' : ad- |
vice. He had, hardly crossed the
nublio souare opposite. when But.
terwortb. who was a cool and re.
seetiye map.remembered a strange !
uncertain light in SickIes, eve. !
He walked out to find him. Just
then KEY emerged from the corner !
pate of the square, having waved |
his handkerchief to Mrs. Sickles,
IN the bouse ouposite the farther
side. ButterWorth had scarcely
addressed KEY when Sickles rush.
