The Boston Globe says: Sat no period
in the history of our country has public
attention been SO generally directed to
mining for the precious metals as now,
and shrewed investors everywhere look
upon this as the great money-making
bushes of the next twenty years. From
Maine to Maxico, and from the Atlantic
to the Pacific, thousands of prospectors
and miners are engaged in determined
search for the shining ore, and intelligent
capitalists are investing large share of
their funds where the probabilities of
speedy and large returns are so fair and
and the possibilities almost unlimited.

WARRESToN, Va, April "a novel
lynching case occurred here last night,
not only in the manner of punishment,

seems by appointment with the unfaith.
ful wife. A party of colored men, &C.
quainting themselves with existing facts,
went to the house, demanded the man to
follow them. They took him to tree,
and commenced tying his hands. He
showed great signs of terror, and began
pleading for his life, when one of the
party said: "We will not be as hard on
you as the white men are on us under
similar circumstances, but we are Ger.
tainly going to hang you," and then
turning the poor devil end for end, tied
his feet together and swung him between
earth and heaven by the heels. This
morning Vim. Cole, an old colored man,
in passing by, saw the man hanging
downward and to all appearance dead.
He spoke to him, put received no reply,
whereupon he cut him down. The victim
upon touching the ground regained his
feet, and dashed off through the woods.
The object of the lynching was accom-
plished, and he has fled from the country
disgraced man.

KALL0CH'S CASE.
The Sand Lot Preacher and Black
guard to be Fired Out.
The Proceedings Started Right
Under His Nose.

SAN Francisco, May 4.-At a
meeting Of the board of supervisors,
last evening, the judiciary committee,
who had been instructed to take into
consideration the utterances and ad-
dresses Of Mayor Kalloch, and to re-
port if there was any incendiary Ian
guage he has publicly used, and to
report the proper action to be taken
by the board in the premises, filed a
long report reviewing the history of
the labor agitation, and the part borne
in it by Kalloch, finding that he has
encouraged the lawless and discon.
tented element, advised them to pa
rade streets, and endeavored to keep
them in such disposition and temper
ament as to commit an outbreak
whenever it should suit his purposes;
that he has impeached the honesty of
the whole community; accused various
branches Of the city government
of corruption and direlictien Of duty
and under pretence Of counseling
the mob against violence, insidiously
advised them to be In readiness for
bloodshed and the overthrow Of such
authorities.
They expressed the opinion that
KallOCh is unscrupulous and unprin.
cipled and devoid of integrity and
fidelity to public interests, and
that the time has arrived for the board
to express their condemnation Of hit
acts, and recommend that prompt &C.
ton be taken to vindicate the fail
name Of the municipality by judicial
inquiry into the Kalloch case.
A motion to adopt the report wa,
put by Mayor Kalloch who announced
vice vOce that it was carried. TIL,
roll was called resulting in a unani
nous vote for adoption. A resolution
was then adopted authorizing tn
finance committee to cause iudicia
proceedings to be instituted agains
the mayor for his removal from Office
and empowering them to employ coun
sci to prosecute the matter to speed
termination. Throughoutthe readin
of the report and resolutions, Kallocl
appeared cool and unmoved, appear
ing to consider only the dignity Of hi
position as the presiding officer of tn
board.

AKENTUCKY TRAGEDY.
Desperate Attempt TO Get Rid Of
A Troublesome Witness.

CINCINNATI, May A desperate
affray took place in Wayne county,
KY, on Thursday last. A man
named Powell, who was a witness to
the killing, last fall, of Hutchison by
Phillips, has been been begged and
threatened by Phillips, in order to
keep him from testifying. Powell re-
fused to leave the county or accept
the bribe.
On Thursday night party of six or
seven masked men attacked Powells
house and broke in the door with a
rail, when Powell struck three Of
them down with an axe. Mrs.
Powell was shot in the arm,
and the maskers retreated, but again
returned. Powell shot and killed the
leader, who proved to be John W.
Smith. The others ran away.
Mrs. Powell pulled a handkerchief
off the face Of one man, and says it
was Phillips. Powell has obtained a
warrant for the arrest of three men,
who are now in Jail.

Grand Jury's Report.

The criminal court held a brief ses-

of the grand jury, after which the
court adjourned until this afternoon.
1t is expected that after signing the
minutes an adjournment will follow
until about Tuesday next. The fol-
lowing are the main points of the re-
port Of the grand jury:
The jury visited the workhouse on
Presidents island, and found every
thing in good order. There were 30
prisoners on the island when the visit
was made. Some complain of being
kept over their time, but it was found
these had made efforts to escape.
A visit to the county Jail was made
and 2l prisoners found there. The
place is clean and in good order.
The poorhouse was visited and 115
inmates are there, and all well fed and
at work painting, whitewashing and
cleaning up. The new walk finished
looks well. 1t is great mis-
fortune that the insane cannot
be removed from the poorhouse
The city prison was visited and
found to be in bad condition; unfit
for the confinement of human beings.

1t is said on the streets that the
Pennsylvania railroad will at once
take charge Of the express business on
its lines, and that it will be conducted
by the old officials of the Union Ex-
press company, who will also have
charge Of the express department on
the Louisville & Nashville system.
This would secure such thorough
operation between the roads, that
the public would be as well served as
heretofore, not only in local business,
but also in all the business between
the eastern, western and southern
cities. This is a most important step,
and it may lead gradually to the dis
appearance not only of express com
panies, but also Of the fast freight
companies.

IRISH RACE CONVENTION.

he convention OF the Irish race to
held in Philadelphia, on the 28th
of June, will be very largely attended;
all parts Of the country will be repre-
sented, and important results may be
expected. The call for this conven-
ton has been signed by about FIVE
hundred men, representing all the
states Of the union, and all the coun-
ties of Ireland. Some five hundred

ity.
A circular issued says! Several
men who have signed the call, have
in their letters, expressed an opinion
that 1t would be we'll to have this con-
Vention open to every honest, earnest
man of Irish blood, who desires to as
sist in raising the old land from slavery
to independence. The members of
the committee hold the same opinion,
yet they adhere to the conditions Of
the first circular, as they believe an
earnest honest man in any town in
America will have verylittle difficulty
in getting ten of his neighbOrs to en-
dorse him as delegate to the conven-
ton, and that endorsement will be
taken by the committee as an assur-
ance and guarantee that he comes in
no factiOus spirit. We implore all to
leave that factious spirit behind them,
and to leave the "crotchets" also be-
ind. The past is dead and we would
ry it with the bitterness that-grows
j the grave of our failures.
If we are not prepared to do this,
we have learned no lesson for Ire
lands good; aud he who would come
to this convention, bringing with him
a hatchet to kill" an old enemy, il
he'd meet him there, had better stay
at home. To revive the past is but to
renew defeat: We would have an act
of oblivion over everything resulting
from mistake and incapacity, and
. would commence the struggle anew,
