INDIAN CIRCUs.-At noon yesterday live
" scrimmage took place near the circus
ground between a Washoe Indian and his
| better half, who was in every sense his better
| half, for she came out victorious from the
engagement. The Mahala wanted to go to
change in his pocket wherewith to pay her
passage under the huge canvas, having been
roped into an honest poker game by some Of
his Piute friends on the Sabbath day. When
told of the Sabbath breaking and gambling
propensities of her liege lord the squaw be
came fearfuly mad and bounced upon the
poor offender like an enragad tigress The
first lunge the Mahala made at the buck cost
him his buster and shirt; there he stood de-
nuded to the waist. The second lunge made
by the gentle female was for his capillary
adornment. She held him firmly, and all
this time the Indian made no effort to defend
or protect himself. This performance at
tracted a large assemblage of whites and In
dians, all of whom appeared to relish the
sight with a wonderful gusto. At last the
Indian freed himself from the vise-like grasp
of the Infatuated vrago, and lied down street

him. The squaw not at Ill disheartened,
accompanied by a hundred or more anxious
sight -seers, followed him, and the quarrel
some couple were soon lost to sight in a huge
cloud Of dust. This poor old Indian can
prepare himself for many curtain lecture
during these faMish evenings.
A VERY SERIOUS CHAR9a-We have in
our possession (the editorial hands), 8
strongly written statement, based, we are
automatically told upon the shameful mis-
doings of a young man who has lately been
at the Lake and has returned here for the
purpose Of engaging in business The charges
are SO very serious that We hesitate to make
them public,-even tho substantiated by very
strong proof. The nature Of the ohense IS
that Of tampering with some very Young girls !
The proof is, $50 we are told,) in the accused
party's own and-writing If half of WHIST |
has come to us is true this young man had !
better not stay here He had better go !
away and mend lis habits and abstain from |
his beastly prOpensjties. We are 10th to be |
more explicit, Tor once the charge is openly !
made 1t may be necessary to make use of |
some Of tho names Of the children with whom |
this person has been III correspondence. We |
propose to look at this matter more closely: |
and If those most interested deem it best, so
shall present the case as it is stated in the
now IN our possession. Il is
solely ont of consideration for the little girls
whose names have been coupled with this
matter that we refrain from more direct
and circumstantial showing of the facts and
charges. The perpetrator Q: Shese Internal
SINS will find himself exposed if it be found
that the public be warned against
aim.
STOCKS. The quotations yesterday were Of

Ldvance was most noticeable in Justice and

higher rates than for months past A devel-
pment in Justice is daily looked for and we
rust the anxious ones may not be compelled
o look for it too long. The cause for the
udden appreciation in price of the Overman
took is enshrOuded in mystery, and no out
ide ''fellah can find it out
