THE OLD CONTINENTALS.
They Meet as Of Old.

II WAS like casting glance backwards over
the gulf Of fifteen years to sit in Hawkins's club
room last night, at the meeting Of that old and
famed organization, the Continental Guards.
Composed as it was Of the most respectable and
influential Of our citizens, since the day Of their
organization in 1854, they we're one Of the insti-
buttons of the city. On their rolls were such
names as W. &. Pike, A. Walter Merriam John B.
key, J. o. Nixon, G. W. Race, T. W. Bothick,
John Purvis and host Of other gentlemen, who
yet remain to recall the old and pleasant associa-
tons Of their company.
When the war broke out two companis were
sent to the field, and to day out of the eighty
original members but forty remain.
their uniform, ia the style OF 76, always at
tracted attention, and was both unique and bril-
liant. Many Of our readers will doubtless recall
with pleasure the grand balls given under their
auspices, remarkable for their elegance, and
from the cloudland OF the past will come up
misty figures Of wel-known forms now forever
gone. Upon q call made the remnant Of the
company met last evening at Hawkins's Club
Room, at N o'clock.
Mr.. h. ii. Montgomery was called to the
chair.
John G. Fleming then stated the object OF the
meeting. He said that one reason for the call
was that owing to the death of tn, President and
Vice President it was desirable that an account
should be rendered of the ball given for the
benefit of the Lee Monumental Fund Mr..
tlemings report was then received and adopted:
An election Of officers was then held TO fill
vacancies caused by death, and Col. r. NJ. Mont
gomery was elected President and Mr.. ]. Y. De
Castro Vice President.
On motion Of Capt. Pierce, the following res
buttons were unanimously adopted:
Resolved That the Continental Guards be re-
organized as military body, and that the uni
form worn by the original company be adopted
for the proposed organization, and that a COM
mittee Of three be appointed to secure, il posi-
ble the same or similar rights and privileges as
those which were granted to the original COM
paDy.
| Resolued, That the object Of recognizing at
this time is to form and equip one full company
at least in time for it to attend the Continental
Celebration at Philadelphia on the 4th of July,
1876 and that to further that object, and render
all the assistance we can, that grand OOntinen-
tai ball be given on the 22d ofFebruary next, the
net proceeds OF which are to 60 towards defrayng
the expenses of the contemplated excursion.
RESOLVED, That the election OF officers for said
company be postponed until such time as the
minimum number required by the laws Of the
State for the formation of military company
have been admitted and signed the bylaws.
Resolved, That until the election OF the officers
Of tie first company, the management OF all
matters connected Herewith shall be under con-
troll and authority OF the officers and members Of
this association.
After which the meeting adjourned.

The Constabuiary Outrage.

The members of the Wilmington
constabulary posse who committed
the murderous assault on Juan Sepul.
veda having been put under $500
bonds each, we will try to keep our
readers posted as the case proceeds.
The following contains the fullest his
tory of the case.
WILMINGTON, CAL, July 81, '75.
ED. ENTERPRISE: Yesterday morn
ing at 10 o'clock, a gratuitOusly cruel
outrage was perpetrated in the suburbs
of our town, that has no parallel in
this part of the country. 1t appears
that four horses belonging to Don Ju-
an Sepulveda wandered off up to
Compton some days ago and depreda-
ted upon the premises of J. X. Morri-
son, who had them impounded. Suit
was brought before Justice Morton, of
Compton, and judgment obtained for
damages to the amount of $22.75. 1t
was prejudged by the aggrived party
bring the amount Of the judgment;
levy upon one hundred head of the
sheep. Matthew Orr, specially depu-
tized as constable, accompanied by
James Orr, Chas. Wright, ]. J. Morri-
son, b. F. Crawford, f. Jenkins, and
one or two others, of the same ilk,
armed with guns and revOlvers, came
down to Sepulveda's to drive away
the sheep. A young woman who was
present and witnessed the entire pro-
ceeding, reports that the posse rode up
to the residence of Sepulveda, and one
of them who spoke Spanish informed
him Of their Intention. He asked
them for their authority, when it was
replied that they had the authority,
but refused to show it. Sepulveda
then told them that he should resist
any such proceeding-unIess they
showed him legal right to take his
sheep. He then went into his house
and soon appeared at his door with a
gun, when several shots were fired at
him-as the nineteen wounds npon his
person, and the numerous marks up
on the house will clearly indicate.
The old man, in wounded, crippled
condition, was then handcufed, and
his wife, who came to his relief, was
Knocked down. This valient posse
then placed him in wagon and
brought him to Wilmington, where
some effort was made by the citizens
to induce the brutal officer to take off
the handouts, and furnish some relief
for their suffering victim. One hand
was released for few minutes to let
the docter to examine his wounds,
when he was again manacled, placed
in a rough wagon, and driven off
through the hot sun, in a fainting con-
dition, to Compton. Here he was
placed upon the oars and taken to Los
Angeles, where the suffering gentle
man was speedily relieved, and his in
human torturers arrested.
The above is plain recital of facts
and makes us blush for our common
man hood to know that such monsters
of cruelty appear in human form.
| Vasquez who was an outlawed BAN
dit, was treated with kindness by his
captors; and IL has been reserved for
these cowardly wretches to vent their
| fiendish passions upon q quiet, peaci-
BILE old gentleman, who Is known and
highly respected by this entire COM
munity. The people OF Wilmington
are Justly indignant at this outrage,
and they have contributed literally
| to have these inhuman offenders pros
ecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

COURT REPORTS.

County Csurt..O'MELvENEY,J J.
FRIDAY, July q.
People VS.. John Mayer, indicted for an as
sault on A. T. Hawley with intent to commit
murder. This ease coming up In its order was
before the Court this morning upon motion
by the defendant for a continuance, the prin-
cipal reason assigned being the excited state
ofthe public mind In consequence Of infiam-
matory publications. In the city papers soon
after the offense was committed. But one ar
tcle, that from the Daily Star of the Sth inst,
was read in connection with the affidavit OF
the defendant. After argument by the coun-
sci, the Court held this showing 10 be INSULT
cient and overruled the motion. The defend
ants counsel then moved the Court for per-
mission to the defendant to withdraw his
former plea Of not guilty and TO plead anew to
the indictment. This was also denied. Coun-
sci next moved to quash the indictment upon
the ground that the Grand Jury by whom the
bill was found were impanneled and sworn
before the offense charged was committed,
and that, therefore, the alleged onense did net
come within the purview Of their oath and
power. This motion was Overruled by the
Court and counsel ordered to proceed with the
trial after recess, which was ordered until
o'clock p. N. The Sheriff was busy all yester-
day afternoon trying TO obtain jury, without
success.
