Still the Heathen Raqeth.

the Democrat of this place, prompted !
by malice and personal hatred,
commenced TRADE Of abuse
against our candidate for As.
ssmbly, E. L. Davis, Esq, and has
kept it up week after week ever since.
He claims to be doing this all for the
good of the people and not through |
any personal feeling. This may look
all right on paper, but no man with
half an eye and thimbleful Of brains
can help seeing that this is much
bigger lie, if possible, than the rest of
his talk. Kepler has boasted openly
and above board that he would defeat
Davis and elect Orion Siggins if it
cost him thousand dollars, and his
vilo course shows that he is as desper-
ate as his threats imply, and that he
is ready to resort to the vilest means
to accomplish his purpose. In lis last
issue he tries new dodge, saying that
Dale and Davis were now trying to
find out which was the strongest so
that the other might throw in his IA
vor. This is such a ridiculous lie
that we will pass it by with nothing
further than this: A gentleman after
reading the article said to Kepler that
he as we'll as everybody was convinced
that such was not the case, whereupon
Kepler replied, "Why l know it isn't !;
but, you see, 1 must keep up the agi-
tation !" and that is the sum and SUBJ
stance of the whole matter. He has
commenced lying and must now keep
it up; he dare not stop. He has
harped away at Mr.. Davis private
character, because he hates him per-
sonally, until he has ruD aground and
has driven hosts of Democrats to his
support and made him the most popu.
lar candidate in the field. The silent
contempt with which he has been
treated has driven him nearly frantic
and he now sees that the decent peo
pie are thoroughly disgusted at thi'
course. Had we been so inclined w
could have paid him back in his OWL
/ coin, and publisheg columns of sbus
) against Mr.. Siggins, but with all de
cent men we despise such tactics, ant
G never so long as we have to do witt
the conducting of this paper, will it
columns be defileI with such uncallet
: for abuse and falsehoods against any
s body or any candidate. But Keple
Q is not alone in this matter. Thes
i articles are all written up and pre-
r pared on the Sabbath day, and ar
r subject 10 Mr.. Siggins' approval o
e the Tuesday following, when he come
!. down as regular as clock work, make
e a straight drive for the Democrat offiC
y and there sees and approves the mar
d uscript before it goes into print. Th
,e is not idle talk, but a fact as plain
e all in this place as the nose on man
st face. Mr.. Siggins' consultations al
g exclusively with Kepler when he com
s. to town, ,ard he only finds time, while c
TO his way from the depot to said Offic

bo that he is helping his man Siggins
abusing Mr. Davis, let him go ahea

How Old Is Glass.

The Oldest specimen of pure glass bear
ing anything like a date, is a little
moulded lions head, bearing the name
of an Egyptian king of the eleventh
dynasty, in the Slade collection at the
British museum. That is to say, at a
period which may be moderately placed
as more than 1000 years b. c., glass was
not only made, but made with skill
which shows that the art was nothing
new. The invention of glazing pottery
with film or varnish of glass is 30 old
that among the fragments which bear
inscriptions of the early Egyptian mon
archy are beads, possibly of the first
dynasty. OF the later glass there are
numerous examples, such as q bead
found at Thebes, which has the name of
Queen Hatasoo or Hashep, of the eigh-
teenth dynasty. OF the same period,
are vases and goblets and many frag-
ments. 1t cannot be doubted that the
story preserved by Pliny, which assigns
the credit of the invention to the
Phgnicians, is SO far true, that these ad-
venturous merchants brought specimens
to other countries from Egypt. DIR.
Schliemann found disks of glass in the
excavations at Mycen@, though Homer
does not mention it as substance
known to him. That the modern art of
the glass blower was known long before
is certain from representations among
the pictures on the walls of tomb at
Benz Hassan, of the twelfth Egyptian
dynasty; but q much older picture,
which probably represented the same
manufacture, is among the half obliter-
ated scenes in a chamber of the tomb of
Thy, at Sakhara, and dates from the
time of the fifth dynasty, time SO re-
mote that it is not possible, in spite of
the asAduous researches of many Egyp-
tologers, to give it date in years.

A Novel use for a Substitute.

Yesterday afternoon, says the Virginia
City Chronicle" green looking coup
lie, evidently newly married, called at
the Photographic gallery of Beals g.
Waterhous and wanted their pictures
taken. Just as Mr.. Beals had got his
plate ready, the man called him aside,
and said he wanted to ask q favor. 81
was told in Carson you took the best
pictures in the State. Now you see Sal
and got hitched down there last Mon
day; now, her folks go a good deal on
style, and they live in the States. They
never saw me, and if 1 send my mug
back East they'll be agin me sure. I'm
darned sight better than L look, and
wAen people come to know me they call
me brick. Now what 1 want to get is
some good lookin' man to sit with Sal
for picture. Will you stand in ? She
is willin'. Them big whiskers of yours
ill catch 'em sure and create harmony.
You look Ikea solid capitalist, and they
would take me for petty larceny thief
Mr.. Beals enjoyed the idea immensely,
and sat with Sal " for the picture,
which will doubtless carry joy into the
household of the eastern relatives in a
week or so.

A RELIGIOUS MANIAC MCRDERS Two CHILD
REN.-A GAINESVILLE special. to the Louisville
Co'ufel'-J0oG1aGl says: considerable excitement
was caused yesterday by the Judgment In our
jail OF Dan Lyle, colOred, his wife, and a negro
woman named Susan Talley. 1t seems that
Dan and his wife have more recently become
perfect monomaniacS upon religious subjects.
lie has asserted tnat he was the Saviour his
vile the Virgin Mary, and Susan Talley who
llVeS with them, prophecies. In his zeal he
has on divers occasions appeared at places OF
worship, both for white and black people. and
insisted on playing his part as preacher. Yes
terday ConStableS Romily and Saunders pro-
cured warrant for his arrest upon charges of
disturbing public worship, and went TO his
mouse 10 execute the same. Lyle resisted fari-
ously, and assaulted Constable Saunders with
an AK. Constable Romly fired three shots at
Lyle. one OF which took effect In the ri -ht
breast and the other two in the groin. LYLE
then returned to his house and barricaded the
windows and doors, but surrendered when
Sheriff Mosely appeared with an additional
posse. Upon entering the house the officers
noticed smell Of putrid flesh, and On making
search found two of LyleS children, and
years Old. dead, with their necks broken. The
impression is that the murder was instigated
10y the Virgin Mary" and the Prophecies"
who have both welded strong influence over
Lyle, and that he did the killing to relieve the
women Of the care Of the children, believing
that for the occasion he was Herod. Lyle's
wounds are very painful, but not considered
m rial.
