RELIGIOUS FANATICISM.
David the Saint, and his Death While Lead
ing His Proselytes.

ing His Proselytes.
LONDON, August 24th.-TLe Rome
correspondent of the Times gives the
following account Of the Grosseto ia
natic and the circumstances of bis
death: "The Lazzaretti affair has
turned public attention for a time
completely away from European poll
tics. On the hills near Grossetto-a
little town off from the railway, be.
tween Leghorn and Civita Vecchia-
. semi-political and religious sect had
established itself under David the
Saint as Lazzaretti was called), who
declared himself to be Christ come
again. He had chosen twelve apos-
ties and surrounded himself with u
large number of proselytes, who re-
quired the surrender of all property
ior common benefit and the labor of
all alike for the society, the latter I'M
dertaking to maintain them and their
families and educate their children
Their creed is an extended paraphrase
of the Nicene creed, with some altera-
lions in Protestant sense. On the
morning of the 18th the prophet, at
the head of between two thousand and
three thousand followers, started for
The village of Arcidosso. His purpose
is not known, but it is said it was not
peaceful. A hundred believers,
dressed in white tunics, like ancient
Jewish priests, led the column. At
their head walked David the Saint, at
tired in halfregal and halfpontifcial
costume, with diadsm on his head
and an reconstructed club in his hand.
The procession sang hymn with the
refrain, Long live God and the Chris
tian Republic Praise be to Christ
come second time OIL earthw The
mob was met halfway by delegate
of police, accompanied by nine car
abin ers, who invited them to disperse.
Upon this David cried / am the Kingr
and ordered his followers to disarm
the soldiers. As he spoke discharge
of firearms was made upon the police
and shower of stones followed. Again |
the delegate gave the requisite warn
ing 10 dispense, which was followed |
by the prophet, aiming blow at him
with the club. Then the police, find
ing themselves surrounded, opened I
fire. Among the first to fall was the
prophet, who was shot full in the
forehead. His followers, seeing their
leader down, gave way. Four of the
police were badly wounded. The
Minister of the Interior has sent a
commission to make full inquiry in
to the affair"

Il A disreputabie paper having said that Hugh Farieys illegal skill is called by honorable members of the Prescott bar. pet tifogging, and nothing else,- several honor able Prescott attorneys desire us to state, that they know Mr. Farley to be an honor able, able attorney, and something else-a gentleman
 The above is from the pen of the illus 1 trious Marion, who, with others, is trying to prevent Yavapai citizens from obtaining fair and impartial trial on a very serious charge. We have said that Mr. Farley's action in the Swilling- Kirby case was pet tifoggIng, and if everything is true that we have heard it is something worse. We tire willing to admit, and have heretofore stated in the columns of the MINER that in all social and business relations, and usually in court, Mr. Farley is an honorable gentle man, nevertheless he perpetrated pettifcg- ging of the meanest kind in the conduct of the Swilling examination. For instance ne induced the commissioner to exclude from evidence the dispositions which were taken here by consent of U. s. Attorney Pomeroy, and which, it was stipulated by Assistant U. S.. Attorney Masterson should be read IS testimony. Mir. Masterson's authority as Assistant U. s. Attorney was just the same as Mir. Farleyis, and if the matter had been before a court, we do not believe one deputy would have been allowed to rcpudiafe the stipulation of another. We would kindly ask the Enterprise, to consult the "honor- able lawyers" of whom it speaks, and an- swer the following questions:
 First-Is there any law of Arizona or Congress that would properly permit paper purporting to be the deposition of N G. Taylor, but which was not signed by anybody, to be given in evidence against Swilling and Kirbvl
 Seconds it not probable that MT. Far ley knew perfectly we'll that such paper was totally inadmissable as evidence2
 Third-When alawyer, who knows better, presents in the prosecution of a criminal case, evidence, that under all the rules of law, is inadmisssble, and takes advau- tage of the ignorance of the commissioner, to force such evidence in, what iword other than "pettifogging' will properly describe his coursei
 That MT. Farley was at Yuma snd con- ducted the examination there if no doubt The papers mentioned the fact and then the attorney for defendants when beholding the highland being played and the farce enacted, walked out of court refusing to act when disgrace had taken possession of q room that should have been the scene of honorable deaiing.
The weekly Arizona miner., 1878-08-09

Some time since we received a letter from Yuma telling us of malicious tesii- mony being admitted against Swillipg and Kirby, and also about certain rulings. The letter, coming from interested parties, we refused to publish. However, in the course of time, Mir. J. J. Hill, one of the witnesses summoned there on the part of the prose- cution, made his appearance in Prescott, and we asked him if sad statements con- tained in the letter to us, were facts, to which he answered that they were, whereupon we penned the following lines upon our own re- sponsibility, not intending the same as Mir. Hills opinion in the premises. Here iswhat we said "The testimony and rulings would have disgraced even the court of Judge Jef- Yeys or old Miller of Wisconsin"
 WILLIAM WnKERsoN-By referring to our advertising columns, and under the proper heading, will be found the announcement of Wm. Wilkerson, asking the support of the voters of Yavapsi Cnunty for re-elec- tion te the office of County Recorder, which he has so ably filled for the past four years. Simply his announcement is sufficient in itself without.an attempt, on our part to eulo- gize Q name that does nor need it. The people are satisfied with him and his re- election is a certainty.
 RAIN.-Prescott after waiting patiently, has at last received good wetting. The rain commenced about eleven, to-day. and in few minutes the streets and alleys were running rivers of water. The prayer of all is that it may continue to rain suffic- tent to cause all the old streams through out the mountains to run water, for all kinds of mining purposes.
 Tomorrow evening the City Hall will be opened by acompetent theatrical troupe who will present 10 the Prescott public several very interesting plays. It is to be hoped that full house will be on hand to greet the performers on this their first appearance in Prescott.
