HALLER's BILL PAssED.-On the
4th inst, just before the adjourn
ment of Congress, a bill passed
ganting Major Granville o. Haller a
trial by court martial, and giving the
court full power to relnstate the
Major in the army. We may justly
feel a pride in this matter; first, be-
cause our friend, the Major, richly
deserves a vindication at the hands
OF the government, and secondly be,
cause the ARGUS had the honor to
make the initial move in the premises
by an editorial some time ago. Un'
doubtedly Major Haller will be rein
stated now, as all that either he or
his friends desired was fair and i'm
partial trial to right the wrong and
injustice of summary dismissal
without hearing.

CONGRESS adjourned on Tuesday.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1879-04-29

ONE of the special features of the
late Constitutional Convention was
that not n single repre-
sentative of the native Califor-
mia race was elected as a
member. There We're in it rep
resentatives from every race on
earth except the Chinese and that
which owned this country prior to
the American occupation. Not
only that, but that body went out
OF its way to insert special pro-
vision preventing the publication
of the laws in any language but
English-thus adding to the insult
of the exclusion of the native race
from part In the deliberations
which were to make the organic
law of the State the injury of their
not being made eognizant of the
laws. 1t is an old legal maxim
that ignorance of the law excuses
no man, and yet our fellow-citizens
of the Spanish race, whom we found
here when we came to California,
are not permitted to know what the
laws are-at least those of them
who do not read English are not.

New YORK, April 2S.-Labou-

adds: "Should this number traverse

consider what L have frequently
suggested, that we are slaves of

A Murderer of six Persons Hang ed.

d. Richards, the murderer of Mrs.

Anderson, for whose murder he
was convicted, was hanged Satur-
day at Mindep, Kearney county.
The execution was to have been
privately carried out inside of a
high enclosure, but the mob tore
down the enclosure, and the hang

Richards mounted the scaffold
about l O'clock. He made short
address, and said his soul was going
to God and his body to the under,
takers. His hands were tied, the
black cap was put over his head
and then the trap was sprung, al
lowing him to fall six feet, hi'
neck being broken by the fall
There was an immense crowd pres.

WE are told, in substance, by the
Good Book, that "a house divided
against itself cannot stand" 1t
requires "but little less than
little witt to appreciate the
wisdom and truth of this
scriptural aphrosm. We find
the house of Downoy divided.
The foundation stone and the Co.
rinthian capitals, in the persons of
the Messrs. Donahue and Martin,
of the Hibernia Bank, are against
Kearney's new Constitution. The
accidental part-the turret-in the
person of the "ex- Cows for the
Kearney monstrosity. All there is
of either ornament or solidity in
the structure is embraced in the
Messrs. Donahus and Martin The
turret was so high up that nobody
could see what blur it was on the
general structure. The earthquake
which ia now shaking California
has thrown pe,iiments from pedes-
tails and ;urrets down to founda-
ton stones, and everybody can
now see how Inferior the accidental
"Gov.n was to his staunch and
thorough brothers in law. We
don't give it as authentic, and ii
therefore don't require formal con.
tradiction, but the epigram is
credited to the leo onine Peter Dona-
hue that "DowDey has very little
sense when sober and none at all
when dunk" The remark is so
good and racy with wit and wis
dom that it ought 10 be true. We
think it is, even though it may be
disavowed. Our distinguished fel-
low citizen is evidently now in one
of his "off.color" moods.
