Observation-Disclosures c. Wingard
of New Orleans, the inventor Of the origi-
MI Calling gun, claims to have dis
covered a force by which he can destroy
vessels built of iron or otherwise, so as to
leave no trace of them in their former
shape, and that, too, without approach
ing nearer than Eve miles, unless II IS
desirable to operate at Il shorter distance.
This claim is attracting considerable dis
cussion among scientific naval officers,
who are anxious to witness the demon
stration of this power and the effect OF
this new discovery. Mr.. Wingard claims
that little navy of small vessels, such
as he could design, and equipment OF
each Of which would cost probably three
iourths less than any iron-cad vessel OF
war, with his invention attached could
sweep the seas clean Of the whole worlds
navies combined.

A LADY who suspected that her hus-

act. After watching for days she heard
him come in one evening, and quietly
pass through into the kitchen. Now
Katy was out that evening, and the
kitchen was dark. Burning with jeal-
ou>y, the wife took some matches in her
hand, and hastily placing her shawl over
her head, as Katy sometimes did, entered
the kitchen by the back door, and was

in the most ardent manner. With her

Jealousy, the injured wife prepared to

A PLUcKY WoMAN.-A lady from
SCOTS Flat, was visiting this place dur
ing the recent storm, and found when
she wanted to return, that the suow on
the road was so deep that it would be
impossible to do so. She however, did
not prolong her visit, or show the least
discouragement. She walked out to the
V Fume, and walked the narrow planks
at its side, the whole distance home,
which is over eight miles. Some OF the
trestles over which she passed, are seven
ty-ive feet in hight. That is what we
call clear headed and sure footed wo-
man. If she is married her husband has
a fortune in her. If she is not married,
we think she need not worry about the
matter, for she will never meet with an
obstacle in life which she can not sur
mount as easily as she did the one refer

SHEPARDsoN Our readers are more
or less familiar with the chief points Of
the trial OF Shepaldson in Shasta, for the
robbery of the stage in ISL Of his cen
viction at two trials, and final acquittal.
Those who were present at the last trial
were Of opinion that another conviction
was inevitable, but the jury took a differ
ent view of the matter. Doubtless the
fear that ho would be again released on
some bubble Of law, and put the county
10 the expense Of another trial, may have
Influenced the jury at the trial last Fall.
Immediately after being released Shep-
ardson was again arrested on requisition
from the Governor of Oregon, TO answer
a charge of mail robbery in that Ssate,
but was released by Governor Pacheco
on the ground that he was not fugitive
from justice, he having been taken from
the State against his will. a bout week
since Shepardson was again arrested in
Colusa, and taken to Oregon for trial.
Either Shepardson is very unfortu-
nate, or a very guilty man. If the former
he is entitled to the worlds sympathy for
the suffering he has already bornei by
reason of his supposed completely with
the gangs Of robbers who have infested
this State, Oregon and Nevada. If the
latter he is very guilty, for his crime has
brought punishment to innocent men.
For the stage and mail robbery in Oregon
for participating in which he will be tried,
three men, claimed now to be innocent
are suffering life sentence of imprson-
ment in the Oregon Penitentiary. The
crime of stage robbery is fearful one.
Those who participate in it go prepared
TO take life if necessary to their cnlllng,
and the man who resists their demands,
does 50 at the peril OF being shot down
like dog. Therefore all law specting
citizens are united against those on whom
this suspicion falls and when the crime
b IS been committed, rejoice at the capture
OF the probable criminal. To punish in
nocent men does not remedy the evil, bu
rather encourages guilty ones TO adhere
TO their practices. While we do not wisl
to be understood as condemning Shepard
son in advance of his trial, it is sincerely
to be hoped that if be really be guilty,
that tie qubbes and technichaiities
which availed him so well in the Calilor-
MIA Courts will not stand him in equa
god stead in Oregon.

the shock had changed several barrels OF
"mess pork" into good, merchantable
whisky, the marks on the barrels re-
naming entirely unaffected. The mat

THE defeat Of one-term amendment,
in the House of Representatives seem to
have no direct bearing upon the question
Of third term. Hardly any Of those
