THE DAILY RECORD UNION.
WHICH WAY IS YOUR MUsKET A
F'IHFIE' TODAY"
!e church in the State Of Virginia.

In a little church in the State of Virginia,
Some negroes had gathered to worship the Lord !;
And after the service they had class meeting,
That each Tor the Master might utter 4 word
Their leader exhorted and spoke OF the warfare
Mheh Christians should wage 'gainst error Away !;
And finished by king the following question
" Which way is your muskets P'intin' to-day?
One after another they gave their experience
Some brothers were happy, some ukewarm or
cold
One saw his way clear to the portals of glory,
Another had strayed like lamb from the fold.
AT last Brother Barkis-a renegade member,
And Satan's companion for many day
Arose, cleared his throat though visiblY nervous;
He folded his arms and proceeded to say:
"Dear brudders and sisters once Christian,
once was rs happy rs anyone here
1 fit for the church like battle Scared soldier,
And stood by her banners when traitors were
near"
Hold on dar," the leader sxcitedly shouted;
20 Please answer the question aXed you, say
I've given you credit for all you fit den, sir
Which way is your musket p'intin' to day.
The Democrats talk of the glory Of Hancock,
And boast of the record of English as well;
Then give them due honor; Tor Judas was loyal,
TIL money offered; he took 1t and fell.
would liken their boast to the boast OF old Barkis
And then with the class leader, honestly say
Hold on dar my brudder, dat isn't de question,
Which way is their nuskets pintin to-day 2
Shall men who are training with Brgadier- Generals
Who fought to destroy national flag,
Rise from their seats in the Forty-siXth Congress
To eulogize traitors like Davis or Bragg?
Shall men bow down in Confederate caucus,
And worship the masters they humbly obey,
Shall they rule the nation by Washington founded
Which way is their muskets pintin today
The question, my friends is of vital Importance;
The nation is waiting in anxious suspense;
Each voter can WELD political musket-
Then WELD it, ask in your countrys defense;
The issue before us is clear and unclouded;
Shall the nation be ruled by the blue or the gray
candidlv ask iellog-soldier and voter:
Which way Is your musket p'intin' to-dayP

Ku.LINC or CaAs. DE YOUNG.

The shooting of Chas. DE Young, OF the
San Francisco Chronicle, Friday evening,
April 23d, by Isaac NJ. Kallock, son OF the
Mayor of San Francisco, WAS not surpris.
ing. although created considerable excite
ment throughout this coast. True, it was
dastardly and cold-booded assassination,
vet it was no more low and cowardly in
young Kalloch to assassinate the defamer
of his family, and perhaps not as much,
as it was in Chas. De Young attempting
to assassinatc the young mans father a
few months ago. When young kalloch
attacked De Young, the latter was armed
with knife and revolver, but when lie
Young attacked Kalloch, ST., the old
man was unarmed. In the Chronicles
account of the tragedy, they fail to pub
lish the testimony of 4. B. Read and ).
S. Spear, the gentlemen with whom DE
Young was holding conversation at the
time young Kalloch entered the office
and shot him.
Mr.. Read says the door was sudden
ly opened and l. M. Kallock walked, or
rather rushed, in. He apparently took
but stride when he was abreast of De
Young, the pistol cleaning in his hand,
and placing the weapon within two feet
Of his face, fired. De Young at once
sprang behind Mr.. Read, and grasping
him by the arm endeavored to use him as
shield. At this point Kalloch reached
over Mr.. Reads right shoulder and fired
the second shot. So close WAS the fire
that Mr. Reads right eye was bloodshot,
the side of his face begrimed with powder
and the hair Oh that side of his head badly
singed. After the discharge of the Sec
ond shot, De Young released his hold
upon Read and made dash for the fur.
Their end of the room, and as he reached
the gate of the fence which separates the
front part OF the counting-room from the
private office, he turned and raised his
revolver, pointing it toward Kalloch, who
had started in pursuit, but had been
seized by Read. The latter says that
when he saw De Young raise his revolver,
and knowing that he had been hit, and ii
he shot at all would shoot wildly, and be
as liable to hit him rs kalloch, he loos-
ened his hold upon him, and jumped to
one side. He is under the impression that
De Young fired shot, but cannot be
certain. Kalloch discharged his weapon
a third time as Charles De Young stood
in the gateway, the ball striking the
wall. After this De Young ran around
the high desk, and Kalloch, step.
ping back little, turned, and, leaning
over the counter, fired again, once oil
twice, when De Young fell. Mr.. Spear
corroborates the statement of Mr.. Reac
as to the entrance of Kalloch and the fir
ing of the first and second shots.

THE PISTOL.
[Silver Reef Miner.

On Wednesday night, between the
hours of 10 and IL o'clock, the we'll
known crack, crack, crack, Of whistler
was heard on Main street, and general
rush was made to the lower end Of town,
whence the firing seemed to proceed. H.
Mcmillan was then discovered hmping
down the street with bullet wound in
his thigh, which he stated he had received
from pistol in the hands of Xiv Phil
lips. Mcmillan was Immediately taken
to Dr. Mantor's office and, after having
his wound attended to, was conveyed
over to the hospital Phillips proceeded
up to Barbee & Van Hagen's Office, at
which place he was arrested by Constable
Wilson. On Thursday morning an ex-
animation was held before B. H Paddock.
Gus Engler testified that at the time of
the shooting he was coming across the
street from Levy's to Hickox's saloon;
heard Phillips ask Mcmillan, "are you
looking for me;' Mcmillan replied,
"yes, " and then Phillips commenced fir
ing Mcmillan ran down the street, |
followed him; found he was wounded
and helped to bring him to the doctors
office.
Phillips, the defendant, was then
sworn, and testified that OH the previous
night, as he was going over to Cassidy's
saloon from Barbee & Van Hagen's office,
he was called on one side by John Shean
and Richard Tone, who informed him
that Mcmillan was on the warpath in
consequence of having been arrested for
larceny that morning, and had threatened
to get even on the son of a - who had
instigated his arrest. Was also told by
Joseph Hoag and Al. Grant to keep 4
sharp lookout, as threatening language
had been used by Mcmillan. On coming
out OF Hickox's saloon saw Mcmillan
coming up the street; when he saw me
he hesitated moment, then came up
close, looked in my face, and said, sis
that you:" said, yes; are you looking
for. me:' he said yes" and then |
commenced firing. After the third shot
, he commenced to retreat and l ceased
firing came up to Barbee & Van Hagen's
Office and surrendered to Constable Will
son. Was firmly convinced that Nc
MILAN intended to murder me.
Several other witnesses were examined,
but nothing material was elected, and
the defendant was discharged.
