Mr.. VIM. Allen, of Rockbridge, said it
had been said that the abraptness of the
resolution for a termination of the con-
tract might not be exactly courteous. The
contract called for 80 days notice; he
would suggest that it be mad SO days
There could be no difference Of opinion,
he thought. as to the propriety of dissolv-
ing the connection. The first report
from the completed road, a year ago, had
shown profit Of $1,000, and now this
second report shows a loss Of 5000 and
IN that was not included $4,000 interest
On the iron. With the kindest feelings to
She corporation that had been running it,,
it is simply impossible to continue the
connection. It would be better to go
back and take the proposition to lease
made last January, or even to pay off
our debts and shut up the road until better
times; anything is better than to go on in
curing debt He moved to make the

Directors to lease the road for its expenses.

Friday afternoon, as the 8 o'clock
shin was descending the old shaft OF
the Caledonia mine, the cage, with six
men in it, stuck in the shaft, and before
the accident was known to the engin-
eer, a large amount of the cable was
run down and lay coiled above and
around them in the shaft. Their stu
alton for a while was one of imminent
peril, as they dared make no attempt
to extricate themselves, for fear of
loosening the cage and causing it to
drop to the bottom with all on board.
Their situation being finally made
known, men descended the pump
shaft, made an opening, and rescued
them from their dangerous situation,
after a confinement in fearful peril OF
about two hours.

THE LEE JURY CLASSIFIED.

Alter the jury in the case Of John D.
Lee had been discharged, a reporter
interviewed one of them with the view
of ascertaining just how matters went
in the jury-room. He learned that
from the beginning OF the balloting
the jury stood nine for acquittal, two
for conviction, and one willing to go
either way-classified thus: For ac-
quittal, all the Mormons and one Gen.
tile; one GENTLE wavering and two
Gentiles firm for conviction. The Cen
tile who voted for acquittal was elected
foreman by the jury. The counsel for
the defense named the Gentle who
would favor an acquittal before the
jury left the Court room. 1t is said
that more evidence was disclosed in
the jury-room by Mormon jurymen,
who swore when being examined con-
corning their qualifications to serve,
that they had "never heard Of the mas.
sacre," than was elected on the wit
ness stand. The perjured scoundrels!
There i. not one of them who does not
richly deserve hanging on the spot.
AS was to have been expected, there
was great rejoicing among the Nor
mons, and particularly among the
Church authorities at Beaver. when
the jury was finally discharged. The
case of Leo was continued for another
term of court. He may be tried again,
but always with the same result, un-
less Congress shall interfere and place
the cases of these Mountain Meadows
butchers beyond the control OF Nor
juries.

SAN FRANCISCO POLITICS.

II ever there was a middle in this
world the same is reflected in the con
dition Of parties and politics in San
Francisco at The present time. II is
moi possible that there breathes a man
In all the interior who can tell any
thing whatever about the real situation,
and we very much doubt If there is
one San Franciscan in every ten thou
sand who is any better posted. They
have down there, besides the regular
Democratic, Republican, and Indepen-
dent parties, q nominating committee
of ten, another Of eighteen and still an
other of twenty-four. Then there is
the Young Mems Republican Central
Club, the Young Mems Democratic
ditto; the Crescents and the Changers;
the Piperites and the Anti iperites;
the Bulletins Convention and the
Chronicles Convention; the Peoples
Independent Anti Water Committee
and the Temperance Woman's Rights
Anti. Gas Organization; the Tax
ANTI Monopoly Protective Association
and the Citizens Unpledged Anti
Railroad Independent Cooperative
Labor Reform Mercantile Union; and,
to cap the climax, the Democratic State
Central Committee proposes to take a
hand with the Democratic City Central
Committee in putting up a Democratic
municipal ticket. General Winn and
Emperor Norton remain to be heard
from, while that self reliant patriot and
statesman, Caleb T. Fay, has SHE'D his
castor into the political arena as an
anti candidate for
tho high and responsible position of
City Tax Collector. Caleb is about as
consistent a any of the rest of them,
and we are half inclined to advise the
SENTINEL's ten thousand readers down
at the Bay to go for him. But, seri-
ously though, things are woefully
mixed in the Metropolis, and the more
We try to figure out who is who and

The alta prints what purports to
be an extract from q private letter
written by Senator Sargent to q friend
In San Francisco. 1t is only valuable,
Of course, as rejecting his private opin-
ion Of the si~tuation-if it does. The
Senator, writing from Auburn, says /:
81 am delighted with the appearance
of politics in the State; the Republicans
arc the only active party, have the
best meetings and are everywhere
working steadily and we'll. The indie
pendent party is resolving itself into
its original elements. Both Democrats
and Republicans are leaving it and GO
Ing back to their old parties. False
kilograms are sent of enthusiastic
Independent meetings, to keep up q
show, which are laughed at at the
places where the meetings were held.
In nearly all the counties the Independ-
ents have no organization or local tick
cts, while the Democrats seem to be life
less" Senator Sargent says further
along In his letter that "the chances
for the Republicans carrying the State
are excellent, and II San Francisco does
half IS we'll - 1t may, under good
leadership, they will do it,"
The Senator, 1t would appear, is
not over sanguine, else why does be
employ that eff" with reference Ia
what is expected of San Francisco. In
this connection, we may again take 90.
casion to state that the 5000 which

on the success Of William Irwin for
Governor remains untaken in this
Office. Come up or shut up.

and necessarily, until victory has at last
been secured.
If, secondly, this class OF Independent
voters are represented by such man as
Hon. CARL SCRUKz, there is still less rea-
son for the Radicals to look to them for
comfort. They are men who have served
with that party, and have, at
one time, worked for its sue
cess. But they were not entirely
corrupted by evil communication, SO when
the drift of the party towards corruption
became apparent, and finally acquired
such velocity that it could not be stop
ped on the principle OF DESERVING a
sinking ship, they left their old associa-
ties. and under these circumstances, it is
hardly probable they could be induced
again to join hands with them.
SO itsno use for the Radicals to try and
cover over with their blarney the indie
pendant voter, for take him in what class
he msy be found, whether ready to vote
with the strongest party, or whether as
the strong partisan, or as the conscien-
tious thinker, he will not be the means Of
helping them to victory.
