HELD. To ANSWER.

Recently suit for damages came up
for trial in the District Court OF Santa
Clara county at San Jose. The plain
aff.was cripple named Bland and the
defendant the Southern Pacific Rail-
road Company. During the progress
ofthe suit one of the jurors statedlin
open .Coust that he had been offered
money to find verdict for defendant.
The person who it is alleged. at
tempted to, bribe the juror is s. W.
Essierday,a member of the City Council
of San Jose. The preliminary exam
nation of Easterday upon the charge of
bribery was concluded last Saturday,
and the evidence against him was SO
clear that he was held to answer before
the Grand Jury. his bail being fixed at
$1,000. The offence charged is a
serious one, and if it is shown that
yesterday has been guilty OF attempt
ing to bribe a juror in the interest
or the railroad company. he wiIl-in all
probability spend next Easter.day in
San. Quentin.

A correspondent of the Reno Journal
makes it appear that Humboldt county
is prepared to supply a full quota of
candidates for State officers on both
tickets ut the next election. The cor.
respondent is entirely off the track.
however; in fact it is surmised that he
has been too long out of the county to
know any thing about the real situation.
1t is not the general opinion that j. II.
Kinkead has no show tor the Republi-
can nomination tor Governor. Un-
doubtedIy his nomination would inter
fere with the aspirations OF the editor
Of the Journal, but Notwithstanding all
that, we feel confident that Kinkevd
will have the whole delegation from
this county and a strong backing from
Eastern Nevada in the Convention, and
it is not probable that his father in-law
Governor Fall, will press his claims as
q Democrat, for the United States
Senatorship. Judge Berry is not
candidate for Lieutenant Governor, and
would not have the nomination if it
was rendered him. Some of the others
mentioned by the correspondent as be-
ing candidates for State Offices on the
Republican and Democratic tickets are
now hob nobbing together as members
of the workingmen's party;-so that the
correspondent is entirely off the track
and wholly ignorant Of the political
situation in Humboldt county.

LONDON. Feb. IL.

LONDON. Feb. IL.
The semi-official Journal de st.
Petersburg yesterday. commenting on
the dispatch of the British feet, says:
''As far as Russia is concerned, we
think this measure ought not to make
her deviate from the pelicy she has
hitherto followed. Long before the
last incidents which now bring the
English fleet into the waters of Con-
stantinople that eventuality was fore
seen, and was made the subject of IN
structions to the Russian commander
in-chief. If we are well informed,
these instructions directed that In case
the Ottoman capital should be occupied
by the Imperial troops, and British
feet should appear before the city, that
feet should be received with all the
consideration due to ~ @frieDdly Power,
and that if necessity for protecting
the lives aud property of British sub.
jects should cause the troops to be
landed. they should be regarded as o
welcome auxiliary for the maintenance
Of order as long as their activity was
confined to that purpose. Now that
the English fleet is approaching Con-
stantinople. and has given rendezvous
TO the fleets of the other great Powers,
we may assume that the same courtesy
will be maintained between the naval
and land forces of the different States,
if they should meet on Turkish terri
tory. Sixteen months ago this meas.
urs was proposed by Russia and. re-
fused by the Cabinet at London. How
much bloodshed and suffering might
have been avoided by the acceptance of
that proposal.

WASHINGTON, Feb. IL.
Secretary Sherman, being asked if
it was true that he, Matthews, Garfield.
Hale and White had sent dispatch to
Anderson, said it was true, and as that
fact bad been made public he would
furnish copy Of the dispatch. They
meant all it said. Sherman then stated
that he regarded the arrest trial, and
conviction of Anderson as a great out
race under the color of forms of law.
Anderson was not indlcteda The
Grand Jury refused to indict him.
The proceedings against him is called

hibited in cases of felony by the Con-
stitution of the United States and of

Anderson was arrested he was acting.
Collector of the Port of New Orleans,
aud the arrest was made while he
WAS in the discharge of his duty at
the Custom House, which stands as
Sherman thinks, on ground under the
sole jurisdiction of the United States
by cession from Louisiana. He was
hurried to prison, required to give ex-
cessiye bail and failing to-do, 80, was
kept In custody, denied all postpone
ment. forced to trial, convicted. and is
now held for sentence without the bene-
I'll Of bail. The jury was, packed to
convict. The panel had been carefully
selected, almost exclusively by one
political party and one race. Their ex-
animation. AS it was called. showed the
deepest and strongest prejudice against
the defendant, and in any tribunal he
(Sherman) knew nearly every one
would have been rejected on his oath !;
and yet, though challenged, they were
