/" WILD BILL
He Meets His Fate at Last at Deadwood.
i'm the Black Hills.

Everybody in this country has
heard of wild Bill" noted scout.
buffalo-hunter and plainsman, and
who on account of his reckless
bravery, was made marshal at differ
ent times of several frontier towns
when it was necessary, because of the
lawlessness that prevailed in their
early settlement, to have peace Of
ficers who would kill in order to up
hold their authority. During wild
Bills" administration as marshal of
Abilene and Wichita, he is said to
have shot to death many man who
resisted him, and in this peculiar way
kept comparative peace. Either in
Abilene or Wichita, which is not
known at present to this chronicler,
Bill once killed man named Suther-
land. That was several years ago.
but the avengerof Sutherland's death
kept the trail like a sleutn-hound.
avid Bill" whose real name was
William Hickok, was tall, hand
some fellow, about forty years of age,
as straight as an Indian, and, like
most of his class, wore his hair, which
was black as crow, falling over his
shoulders. Having gotten into
trouble with the Texas herders who
made Wichita their headquarters,
things got too warm for William, and
he retired from the frontier after
remaining some months at Kansas
City he went East and got into the
dramatic business under Ned Blunt
line, who at that time was making
something of a sensation by introduc-
ing into blood and thunder plays the
characters represented by Buffalo
Bill civilian Cody, Of Nebraska),
~Texas Jack" John Omohundro) and
~wild Bill, the subject of this article.
Moreover, he had these parties en-
ployed to play their own paIts, and
the venture was grand success.
Buffalo Bill and Texas Jack both got
rich and married leading actresses,
and Wild Bill married Mrs. Lake, of
circus fame, the widow of Lake, the
Snowman, who was killed at CRANKY,
Mo-, about four years ago. Not long
since "Wild Bill" came from Califor-
mia with his wife and took her to Gin
cinnati, where he left her with her
friends and relatives, and he went
back to do some scouting duty with
General Crooks command, when he
first started into the Indian country.
By some means Bill drifted into the
Black Hills, and on the I'd day of this
month he was shot in the back OF the
head and killed at Deadwood City by
a man named Sutherland, brother
of the man of that name whom Wild
Bill had killed at Abilene or Wichita
Our informant says that Bill has
many friends in the West, especially
at Cheyenne and in the Black Hills,
who say that Sutherland will never
live to get out of that country.-Dea-
Der Nears.

The Eleven Commandments Of Budd.
hism.

Amid the vast mountain OF inform
alton that has been CLEANED from the
Asiatic regions of the world since its
gates were first unbarred to the pry
| ing eye OF civilization, there is much
in reference to its religious and su-
perstitious usages. 1t has been learn
ed that 3OO, 100000 Of people guide
their lives under the one religion cf
Buddhism, and an idea Of what this
religion consists has also been gained,
with descriptions of its forms, its
priesthood, its operations, etc., but
not until very recently has the found
alton of all this devotion-the rules
upon which it is based-been reveal
ed. Christianity has ten command
ments as the underlying stones OF its
structure, and, singular as it may
seem, the religion of Buddha is
grounded upon a similar form, differ
ing only i'm that, instead OF deca-
logue, it has what might be called, an
"uno-decemologue,' or, to speak in
more authorizabIe English. it's eleven
commandments. 's'iah ~
By, the consent Of the Buddhist
priests in the island OF Ceylon, not
long since. translation OF the laws
and precepts OF their religion was
made. The likeness to the ten com
mandments OF the Bible was surpris-
ing to the translators, as review. OF
them will doubtless be to all Christian
readers. The first precept enjoins
abstinence from destroying life, in
this being like the sixth command
ment OF our decalogue; the second
forbids theft. corresponding TO the
eighth commandment OF the Bible;
the third forbids fornication, answer
ing to the seventh Bible commands;
and the fourth forbids lying, which
covers the biblical prohibition against
bearing false witness. Commencing
here. there is departure from any
similarity to the bible demands, the
Buddhist laws forbidding respective.
ly, the use of strong drink, indul-
gence in singing, adjoining and beau
tifying of the body, using large and
high touches for seats, and cleavihg
to gold or silver. The last OF these
mightbe said to compare well with
the closing charge of the Christian
commandments, which warns against
covetousness, although evidently
aiming more directly ageinst the
miser's sins. sd ,0utl ts
These eleven commandments which
must be repeated by all candidates
for the priesthood or other position
in the Buddhist temples, are avowed
to have had their origin with the
founder of the religion, many hun
dred years before the inception of the
Christian era, the Buddhist priest
hood being united in pronouncing
them the product Of the Inspired
mind of Sakya NUM- himself They
are wise and reasonable precepts,
with remarkably few exceptions, and
have doubtless restrained hundreds
OF millions of their followers from
sins that, without them, would have
been committed.

FLOATERIAL.

We copy below sensible article on
this subject from the Paris Intelli-
gencer. The editors ideas, as well as
Col Days and Capt. Coles, are sound
and sensible. If more than one
Democrat wishes to run, LET US have a
convention. 1t will never do to fight
each other. Col. Cole made us an
able Representative in the last Legis>
lature, and We hear general favor
able expression for his return. Above
all things, don't let us have wrangle,
but let us leave the subject of plat
form to a County Convention:
We see from the Grange Journal
that Col. q. w. Day, of Humboldt,
in answer to a call TO become a candi-
date for Floater from this hoaterial
district, has declined to do so. Col.
Day is a good man, and in declining
to become candidate himself throws
out some valuable suggestions to the
party in this district. He says: 81
trust the people of this foaterial dis
trict will, at the proper time, meet in
convention or by a primary election
and determine who shall be their
standard bearer in the great contest
now looming up before us. We should
select a man of good ability, discon-
nected with political cliqucs and rings,
and one the Office see ks; a man who
has the moral courage to dare to do
right, regardless of party clamor or
anything else; a man who will always
speak and vote his honest conviction
and last, but not Least, a man that is
fully imbued with an honest concep>
lion ef his duty, etc.
We may add that we think that
the course pursued by our present
foater, Hon. II. p. Cole, justi6es us
in assuming that he possesses many Of
the qualifications above mentioned to
which may now be added that of ex-
perience, which is so much needed to
render one useful in a parliamentary
body.
The attention Of the reader is called
10 the card of Mr.. Cole. in another
column. 1t is short, pointed, and
modest, and speaks well for the writer.
We commend him to the kind con-
sidoration Of our readers, at The bal
lot box.

A gentleman of color, lately arriv-
ed in Nevada, who had been scanning,
with evident curiosity, a Digger squaw
and her papoose. the latter being a
bright little half breed, with unmis-
taxable indications of negro blood,

The first postal system of the colon
les was organized by four printers,
Franklin, Holt, Goddard, and Haz-
zard, in July, IT'S. Congress ap-
pointed Franklin the first Postmaster
General, with a salary of 81, 600, re-
sidence in Philadelphia, and instrue-
tons to establish posts from Falmouth,
New England, to Savannah, Ga, with
cross posts, and rates 20 per cent. be-

A Berlin dispatch to the Times
says that, Notwithstanding the pacific
result of the Berlin Conference, the
Austrian Government is preparing
for contingencies. Among its. latest
measures is an arrangement for trains
for wounded and sick soldiers on va
rious railroads. This seems to justify
the conclusion that, if no settlement
is affected on the basis Of the Berlin
programme, Austria, rather than al
low Servia and Montegro, to stir up
war indefinitely, will either interfere
herself or enable Turkey to interpose.
Brigands robbed a stage In Texas
last week in the old-faslioned way,
which everybody who reads novels
understands. The stage was stopped
and the passengers, after having
thrown their weaponsdown ina heap,
were formed in aline and their money
and valuables were taken away from
them. After taking the valuable
packages in the mail and joking with
the frightened passengers, the robbers
rode leisurely away with about $500
in money and other property. There
have been lately many such outrages
in Texas.
