THE STRIKE OF THE SEASON

Eagle. The vein measures full six
feet wide and is all pay ore. Aleck
Middleton had two n.ples of the ore
assayed and the resultswere respectively
$1,000 aud 81. 532 per ton. When this
was made known. it was amusing to
see the boys strike ont to find AN extern
sion of the lead, and more amusing to
know that they found it. There is
great excitement, aud Mr.. Brown of
Battle Mountain has laid out town
and sold several lots. on which houses
are now being built, and the signs

Following two attacks on the Emperor
William and one on King Alfonso, the
attempt of an Italian to assassinate Kine.
Humbert will make monarchs feel that
their positions are just now beset with
peculiar insecurity. Italy is infested
with revolutionary and communistic So
'cieties, which only respect the monarchy
until they are strong enough to overthrow
it. King Humbert's assailant disowns
any completely with these associations,
and adopts the common plea that he was
poor; and so nourished hatred against
his sovereign. His crime is, however,
fraceable to that deep discomfort which
pe1meates the lower strata of European
society, ard which invariably finds some
hand rea " to revenge its wrongs. In
structed to regard the sovereign in pros
porous times as the source Of bounty,
such people visit on him the responsible
ity of their m:sfoi tunes. The young
King Of italy should have inspired bet
ter feeling. Since he came to the throne,
last january, he has pursued a conserva-
tive course, and allowed his subjects
greater degree of liberty than they had
over enjoyed.

rs THE PREsIDENOY A CHATTEL

rs THE PRESIDE ENJOY A CHATTEL,
Now that the bottom facts have come to
light relative to the Florida frauds, we
apprehend no cowardly sentiment will pre-
vent the prompt passage of bill to confer
the necessary power upon the Supreme
Court to try the issue of fact, as to the
bargain and sale of the Presidency. 1t is
at the very root Of our whole system of
jurisprudence that fraud so vitiates any
title that at all times 1t may be inquired
into-even after judicial decision. No
statute of limitation bars fraud-no time
can cure it. In the ease of Hayes, the
failure or neglect of Congress to provide
for testing his title, now that the presump.
ton Of bis completely has become apparent,
Is treason to popular rights.
The Gazette has spoken out, last evening,
upon this question with the right ring, and
as upon the silver question, speaks for the
people.
Is the Presidency an Office for barter and
sales Have we fallen into the frightful
slough of corruption which preceded the
fall of the Romon Empire-when the I'm
peral crown was sold at auction by the
Pretoriaus to Didius Juliannus for 725, 900
krachmas. This sale of crown Is justly
held to be one of the most Infamous acts
ever perpetrated In q civilized country.
The sale of the Presidency to Hayes,
although not quite as public, is equally cor
rupt. The State OF Maryland has de>
manded an issue to try the fact of Hayes
purchase-what reasons have our repre-
sentatives in Congress to give in bar OF
that demand We are certain their answt r
will be courteously received and well con-
sidered by the people. The Electoral Com
mission was concession to unmanly fears
"a failure to try the title Of Hayes, after
the right to do so had been specially re,
served by the terms of the Electoral Com
mission bill, will be worse.
