His course as Governor has given n
tire satisfaction, and nothing can be
brought against his actions, character
or life to his injury. Always conserv-
alive and generous in his political
principles, thoroughly American aud
never a bigot, a ready speaker Of fine
personal appearance aud dignity of

as will be an honor to the State, and
one of whom the Democracy of the
Pacific coast will be justly proud.
As California has supplied the ma

Senatorial representation as we'll as
other State and Federal Offices, We
may furnish a candidate in n or
more of our defeated aspirants, as it is
said that Gen. Williams is mentioned
as likely to appear in the contest. The

bly, have but little effect unless 1t is in
the way of making combinations.
Each will undoubtedly have some ell

ner of his election will be forgotten in
the admiration adduced by his pstri-

evident tn { he aims 20 make the str k

contrast with that of his predecessor,
and he could not have fixed upon a
better line of policy. That at least one
of the gross abuses of Grants reign

is proven by his answer to Ames Still

who was admitted to a private audi

pers. The Presiden. examined them
carefully and then, looking Stillwel in
the face, said: "Your papers are unex-

record which does not seem 10 show
that you are fully qualified for the TO-

objection to your appointment to any

MARHIlD Or SIaGLF.

The case of Miss Mary f. Knox
against MIR. John A. Merritt is a most
singular one. Miss Knox claims Mr..
Merritt as her husband. while Mr..
Merritt repudistes Miss Knox as his
wife. The courts OF Putnam county
believe that the marriage ceremony
was performed which united the two
''fnr better or for worse" and so re.
CURED Mr.. Merritt to give bonds for
the support Of his alleged wife. The
unwilling welded man preiers TO go
to jail on principle. and thus at pres
ent the matter stands. We pity Miss
Knox. She is the sufferer any way.
II she is really married 1t does not do
her any good to have her husband
! ,cked up in prison. If she is not mar
ried. but only mistaken. she can get
neither comfort nor support through
the Incarceration of the man TO whom
she lays claim. So, while the case
seems a hard one for the defendant. If
he is actually a bachelor. it il still
hard r for the amiable Miss Knox,
who is either "A dIsclrde irde, an as
toniShin.ly mistaken spinster or a dis
