there has been no time and no party
which has had at the head of the
ticket a more popular leader than
Henry Mason Mathews, the nominee
for Governor.
Mr.. Mathews is so well known in
Virginia, and has in all parts of the
state so many and warm friends, that
it is altogether needless for us to en-.

ycrs of West Virginia. His popu.
larity is great and confined to no
class Of the people, and added to it is
the universal respect entertained for
his character, both Of head and heart.
Private advices, lately received,
lead us to believe that Mr.. Mathews
is sure to to carry the State by more
than ten thousand majority, and to
have with him Democratic LcgiSla-
ture, thus ensuring to the Democrats
the two Senators, whose elections are
approaching.
If the Republican party had no
more prospect in other States than in
West Virginia, they would be taking
needless trouble TO name electors at

THE ORGANIZATION Of a Constitutional
Republic has been brought about in France
by mutual concessions ma&e by liberal and
patriotic men Of all parties, and has been
sanctioned by very large majority of the
body Of vetsrs. The French parliament
has been organized by the election of officers
to the Senate and Chamber of Deputies.
For the first time since the overthrow Of
the Empire the French nation is under the
rule Of constitutional government, which.
while It is admitted to be but An expert
ment, nevertheless rests upon more solid
foundation and better basis, than any
government that has been tried since the
great revolution by which the downfall of
the ancient monarchial system was effected.
This is q great event in the history Of
France, and the ministerial statement Of the
situation which was read on the 14th instant
to the Senate and Chamber of Deputies, is
a document to which future generations Of
Frenchmen will be able to allude with more
pride and Satisfaction than they will be to
most papers Of similar character. Let u:
hope that the present French experiment
will be perfect success.

S'rEAl.ING~.

Yesterday morning Mr.. B. F. Leete,
who was breaking in a colt to harness,
says Sundays Reno Journal, had a
very narrow escape from being killed.
He had hitclied the colt in a long
shafted ~ulky. and was driving it along
the road in front Of the Reno Lumber
Company's office, when the colt sud
denly commenced turning around, and
while SO doing turned the sulky over
and threw Mr.. Leete to the ground.
The vicious animal then commenced
stamping upon Mr.. l.. as he turned,
hitting him in the face and in the
breast. Gentlemen in the office saw
the situation OF things and ran out
to rescue the fallen gentleman. The
colt turned upon MIR. Boyd and ran
him into a lumber pile, after which he
raj away. Mr.. Leete was picked up
senseless and carried into the Office.
and shortly brought him to conscious
ness. He got up.swenC after the colt
and shortly returned leading him
minus sulky or harness. Mr.. Leete
did not think he was seriously hurt,
but he was very sore.
The Darwin News of tho 10th says:
Three men started from Rose Springs
for Lookout on last Tuesday, and two
of them am into Lookout almost OK
hausted, having been two days without
water. In tho middle of Panamint
valley they divided their water with
the third one of the party, an old man,

condition. He has not yet come In,
and parties who were sent out to search
for him could find no traces of him.
He probably became bewildered and
crazed, and wandered off from the
road and persisted.
