Tks Stage Robbery.

Last night about ten o'clock, within
two hundred yards of Mr.. ]. s. Bells
residence, at Los Alamos, two masked
men stopped the southwark stage and
called for Wells, Fargo q Company's
box. The box was handed out to one
of the men, who shook it, and as 1t
appeared to be empty returned 1t to
the driver. While shaking the box,
his pistol, which he probably had IN
his hand cooked, went off. The rob-
bers then demanded money Of the
passengers, OF whom they obtained
about $40. There were three passen-
gers then in the stage. The horses of
the robbers were also masked. They
had evidently missed the stage where
they had at first intended to intercept
it, as they were riding furiously when
they overlook it at Mr.. Bells. Mr..
Bell, who was waiting to come in by
the stage, was awakened, probably by
the report of the pistol, and went out
with his overcoat and blanket, saw
the lights of the stage, and in about
five minutes after the stage drove up
and the driver announced that they
had been robbed by two men. Mr..
Bell informed his brother-in-law, Mr.
Manuel Den, of the fact. Mr.. Den, in
company with three men, immediate
ly went in pursuit of the robbers, and
if they are overtaken those same men
will not soon bother another stage.
1t is singular fact that no watches
or jewelry were demanded. Mr.. Stowe
senior, who was in the stage lost some
$25, and considers himself quite fortu-
nate that the scoundrels did not take
his watch. The men evidently ex-
pected to make large haul, land when
the wagon left them one of then said
''you are set of dead BEATS" 1t is
supposed that regular organized
band of these road agents have a rem
desvous somewhere about Graciosa or
Lompoc, and we are much mistaken
if some of them do not come to grief
before many days.-Press, 18th.

Sewing Machine Motor.

We saw at the rooms of Messrs.
Doak & Baily yesterday water-mo-
tor applied to sewing machine,
which is the neatest thing in Its line
that ever came under our observation
The power is perfectly formed Tur-
bine water wheel in miniature, en-
closed in water tight cast iron shell
and attached to the machine beneath
the stand where the balance wheel Is
usually hung. Communicating with
this is a supply and exhaust pipe, the
former connected with the hydrant,
and the latter leading to the sewer.
The joints are perfectly fitted so that
there is no leakage. The water is ad-
mitted near the upper part of the
wheel in little jet not more than
double the size of knitting needle.
This causes sufficient power to
run the machin to its utmost capa-
city and it can be regulated to a nice
ty by pedal arrangement which con-
trolls a stop cock. This contrivance
will obviate the chief and only objec-
ton to the sewing machine as run by
foot pedals; in fact it removes all OF
the drudgery and leaves only the fine
art. The attachment can be applied
in any house where water is supplied
in pipes or by tank, and the total
expense will hardly exceed thirty-five

Another Homicide.

We find In the San Bernardino
Times of Monday the following:
Another homicide occurred In our
county last evening. 1t appears that
the deceased, Spencer, has been sepa-
rated from his wife for some months
past, and that there has been cOnsid-
erable hard feeling between himself
and his step-son, Michael Vandervin.

the decease of the former. The follow
ing, the evidence of the principal wit.
ness before the Coroner, gives the
facts of the case:
Deceased was named Daniel Spen-
Ger. He was killed yesterday about
half an hour before sundown at Mrs.
Vandervinter's house, on the premi-
ses leased of DR.. ST. Clair, in San limo.
teo Canon. He came down from Mr..
Mobiles to Mrs. Vandervinters. Mi
chael Vandervinter, son of Mrs. ",
who lived with her, told deceased not
to come into the yard. He got out to
hitch his horses, and they started to
go away from him. He got them again
and hitched them, and then reach
ed into his carriage and got his six
shooter and came into the yard, and
said he wanted to see his wife, Mrs.
V. She was standing on the porch,
and asked him If he wanted to see her
why he came armed. He replied that
he had come to kill some d. son of a
b., aud started towards Michael, who
went into the house. Mrs. Spencer,
whom / have called Mrs. ", asked

said 81 want to see you" She said he
could see her but she didn't want to
see him trouble her boy. On which
deceased turned round and began to
use vile language towards her. Mich
ael came out of the house, and de-
ceased went after him with his pistol
in his hand, presented and pointed
towards Michael, who had no pistol in
his hand, but had one on his waist,
which he had on before deceased
came down. Deceased, when he pre-
sented the pistol at Michael, was Is or
20 PAGES from him, and he said he was
a good man and could fight with his
hands or his pistol. Mrs. Spencer then
told him she did not want him to come
there troubling her boy. Deceased then
tried to go into the house, and Mi
chael told him to come in there, but
he persisted and Michael again warn.

Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1876-11-21

now, as you suggest But the Republican
party will have to think twice before it will
consent to such an infamous proceeding as the
false count of q vote for President of the
United States. Honor, tact and common
sense will array themselves against that in
the mind of every decent Republican states
man. The party would be blind if it should
insist upon any measure in Louisiana, or any
violation of its own precedents in congress, to
elect a Republican President fraudulently. 1t
would by such n course lose the senate as 1t
has lost the house of representatives,, and
Mr.. Hayes as President would then be as
powerless as was Andrew johnson. 1t can
well afford Mr.. Tilden's election, now, by rea-
son of its possession of the senate. 1t could
never withstand his defeat by means of
fraudulent or unworthy technicaGties.
Again, | say, the Republicans will not
dare to attempt a crime against the constitu-
ton and the people. The processes by which
they will be warned against doing so are nu-
merous, outside of their own consciences.
One greau fact is that the constituencies Of
their own strongholds in the east have far
more TO lose than the people OF any other
part of the country through national ag1ta-
ton. The great merchants and bOndhOlders
of the east, especially in New England, don t
want agitation The west and south, nat
urally allied, have nothing to fear. By the
time congress meets Republican senators and
members Will have heard from their cOnstitu-
ents, urging them to go slow And when
congress meets, these senatars and members,
ningling together, will compare notes and
find that their return to congress at the next
elections will depend not so much on their
proving jealous Republicans in this crisis as
upon their retaining from anything which
will have tendency to provoke public dis
content, continue uncertainty and uDsettle
trade That there is such a thing as too
much party zeal the defeated candidates for
the Presidential nomination for many years
past have soundly learned"

Concentration Of Naval Vessels
and Troops at Washington
What Does 1t Mean2-Is
Grant Preparing for
Third Term-Inter-
views.

The situation is slightly changed, but for
the worse. South Carolina has been efectu-
ally robbed of her vote for President and
Nice-President, and Florida and Louisiana
are about to be. The returning board of the
latter State was IN session yester
day, with results that forbid any
hope of a fair count Of the vote Of
her people All the rulings, and the rules,
are directly against the Democrats, and it Is
plain to the plainest that the citizens of the
rObber-ridden State will be remanded to Rad
ical rule and Iilden be swindled out of over
eight thousand votes. In Florida Stearnes
is preparing to do the work of counting out
himself, and Radical committee, in a letter
to Zach Chandler, attempts to prepare the
way for him by manufacturing public opinion
in defense of the proposed delay to report
the result of the election othe country. This
Is. however, Just what we may expect.
1t was a foregOne conclusion with
Grants administration long before the elec-
ton to steal the votes of those States, and
also to fill Washington with troops and the
Potomac with men-of-war, as is being done,
in order to the perfect consummatiOn by the
forms of law of the crime of usurping the
powers of government. Thus every day
brings its own development of the conspiracy
by which the rights and liberties Of the peO-
pie are to be subverted.
