MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE
Peter Larkin, who was on trial in the
District Court at Virginia City last
week for the murder of Corcoran
on the 4th of last August, has been
convicted by the jury Of murder in the
first degree. The Virginia Chronicle
says that Larkin heard the verdict
with the greatest GOODNESS. Indeed
throughout the whole trial he exhibit
ed remarkable self possession, and
while at times showing a little nerv-
BUSINESS, did not try to cover it with
bravado. While the jury was out he
smoked q cigar with evident enjoy
ment, and talked ~cheerfully with his
counsel and = few friends. He will be
sentenced on Wednesday next. 1t is
more than probable that a new trial
will be applied for, as Mr.. Branson
his principal attorney took, on an aver
age, about twelve exception each houl
during the trial.

THE BIG HORN GOLD DISCOVERIES.
But for the Indians, it is the opinion of
old p~rospectors that the Big Horn
country would have been opened up
as nearly equal TO California in gold
richness. Troops of prospectors have
found very fine prospects, but could
not avail themselves of their advantages
on account of the unfriendly behavior
of the Indians. Rarely v e are the
Indians t o be found in the Big Horn
country during the late fall and early
winter. The prospecting done has been
mainly by the Sweetwater miners,
who sieze this opportunity Of compare
tive safety to visit this gold field.
The distance from the Union Pacific
railroad a: Evanston to Big Horn con
yon, is but 263 miles, through a coun-
try said to be we'll provided with Wa

two Poles, named Hirsch, merchants
of the town. The gang, fifteen, forced
then. selves into the store before day
light, tell npon and beat the storekeep.
er~, took nearly 81, 1000 in cash, led the
merchants forth with ropes about their
necks To the fair grounds, and were
about to hang them, but by begging
and promising To leave the place, the
masked rascals let the victims off with
their lives. The outrage has created
much excitement in the vicinity. A
public meeting was held, and a COM
inittee appointed to ferret out the per-
petrators. A number of prominent
attorneys have volunteered to prose-
cute the Williams without fee if they are
caught. No cause is assigned for the
violence except that the merchants
have been u of weighing cotton
falsely for orn of their customers.

THE BREECHES.

The Virginia Chronicle of The 3Oth

"a gloom has settled upon Virginia.

men might stand mistaken before the
lady. She is thin, pale, under the
medium height, and weighs, when in
lecturing condition, about 100 pounds.
She locks like a woman in the face
aud a very one, indeed-but
with an expression of aggressive de-
termination which is in keeping with
the bifurcated raiment. She wears a
Swiss peasant chapeau. a black feather
sprou,ing at the side of the high taper
ing crown. Her glossy brown hair
is gathered in a large and graceful roll
at the back of her strong little head.
From her neck down to her knees she
looks like a German Black hussar, as
she wears an inky cloak of military
cut, trimmed p~rofusely with black fur
of some sort. Then come the brseches.
And what breeches! She made them
herself-there is no doubt about that.
No woman ever knew how to make
breeches. The Doctors, "a might he
expected, are cut straight, and are fear.
fully weak and exp~ressionless. They
seein-as they have a right to be-
thoroughly ashamed Of themselves as
much as possible. They are black and
wrinkled and a trifle seedy. They
meet at the bottom a pair of rather
large kid buttoned boots, and sit very
much as a mans coat-sleevc does.
There is no style about them; they
look like the breeches which small
boys cry over when forced to receive
them from the manufacturing maternal
hand. They aren't worth six bits.
The Doctor is going to deliver a lee
ture on the productive subject of
"Woman" in this city shortly. The
breeches are underlined TO appear.
