densely crowded by a throng of people
to witness Tie progress OF the trial of
Larry Lynch. for the killing of Roche.
A Jury was secured during the norm
ing session and the case presented
on the part of the State by District
Attorney Merrill, which was concluded
early in the afternoon. The remainder of
the day was occupied bv the defense in
examining witnesses, for which a large
number were subpnnaed. After the
introduction of all the testimony the
Court took a s~hortJecess, and during
the night session the case was argued
before the jury: by the District Attor-
ney in behalf of the State, and Thomas
Wren for the defense. The case was
given to the jury at a late hour, which,
after receiving instructions from the
Court, retired to determine on a YER
dict, and returned about midnight
with a verdict of not guilty.
EVIDENTLY INSANE. - The Italian
named Katto, brought from Palisade
on Monday night and confined in the
County Jail, is evidently insane. His
attempts at self-destruction, al
though futile, must cause him to suffer
the greatest pain, but he seems devoid
of feeling and possesses the stoicism of
an Indian. The pistol with which he
attempted to kill himself was a small
seven-shooter, carrying a ball the size
of a small pea. He shot himself i'm
the breast four times, none of the bull
lets causing fatal results. Not salts
| fed with this. he next cut his throat
with a razor, infiictlng a horrible
wound about three inches in length,
but MOI deep enough to sever the main
arteries or wind-pipe. DR.. Reece yes
terday sewed up h wound in the
neck. The man is an entire stranger
here, was seen about Carlin a few days
ago, and on Monday appeared at Pal
isade. He labors under the hallucina-
ton that a great bodily injury has beer
| inflicted on him, and wants to end his
life. He will probably be examined
bv the Board of Insane Commissioners
and ordered to Woodbridge. The cir
cumsta ces of the case seem to indi-
cate that he was helped to Palisade so
a. TO become an additional burden on
this, in preference to some other,
county in having him sent to the
asylum.

ANTI-CHrNEsE.-rhe people of Ne
vada seem to be falling in line with
the residents of California in the move
nlent against the further immigration
of Chinese to this coast. ElAol has al
ready raised her voice, and announces
another mass meeting TO take place

lar daily mails will arrive.

SILVER DIscoUNT.-There are many
who are in the clouds concerning the
silver discount, but any m who does
not fully understand it will soon be
made To realize the full meaning of
the word when he takes a hundred
trade dollars to the bank to exchange
for gold and receives only eighty
eight dollars. The discount was IL
per cent. yesterday with a fair pros
pect of il still raising.
