SEEKING FOR THE CAUSE.

Professor Tice, the Missouri weather
sage, thinks the recent western tornadoes
were not in fact wind-storms. Such effects
could not have followed, he says, such
causes. Objects were lifted and carried
long distances, timbers broken and struct-
ures demolished, which could not possibly
have been moved by the wind, no matter
with what force it blew. Then, too, he found
metal roofs destroyed and the buildings
unframed otherwise, the ends Of branches
OF trees split into broom-like forms, the
bark stripped from all the sides of the
trees, etc, all which would not have re-
suited from mere wind storm. He there
fore sets up the theory that it was electri-
cal force which moved the great weight,
the trees, damaged metal more
than wood, tore to pieces green foliage,
but left dry leaves and twigs untouched,
etc. There is much to warrent the belief
that some other powerful factor beside the
wind entered into the recent disturbances
in the West. The Tice theory is worthy
of critical examination by meteorologists, at
least, and like inquiry may determine the
cause, also, of the excess of the north
winds on this coast this year, and it is pos
sible that the cyclones OF the west and the
electrically charged northers OF the
Pacific, may be found to have common or
like ORIGIN.

roadside in pu1is naturalibus. These
knights of the road were facetious gentry.
If they intended to play practical joke
upon their victims, it must be confessed
they succeeded in making them Supremacy
ridiculous in each others eyes. Despite
the seriousness of the situation, which
compelled the disrobed passengers to travel
several miles to the next station, clad only
in native modesty and their skins,
one cannot repress mental smile as the
picture of their arrival suggests itself, and
the amazement of the station people may
be fancied when this band of unclad hui
mans strobe into the settlement. 1t has
always been supposed that a man, however
willingly he might yield up his purse,
would fight for his shirt, but the incident
just related gives contradiction to the as
sumed bravery of the sex in defense of it's
abbreviated linen.

A CHEERFUL PROSPECT.

1t is said that DR.. Turner, of the Ma
tional Board of Health, has authorized the
statement of his belief that the yellow
fever will visit the Atlantic coast this sum-
mer, but he believes that in the South it
will be confined to New Orleans, which is
pronounced unclean-very. The doctor
says 1850 is the cycle in which the fever
may reasonably be expected at points from
Charleston to New York The doctor is a
cheerful prophet, truly, for with yellow
&c jack along such stretch Of coast, en-
bracing SO many large cities and SO dense a
population, it Will be difficult to prevent
the disease from spreading over many
States. Upon what the doctor bases his
forecast is not stated clearly, but it will
not do any harm-even if he proves but a
mere alarnist-for our neighbors at the
East to clean up their cities, put their
places into the best possible condition and
adopt the latest and best sanitary advice.

ApoLoGIzINa For LYNCH Law.

We have before had occasion to speak
IN severe and unmistakable terms OF the
necessity OF furnishing the men who pur-
sued and killed the San Benito horse
thieves. It would seem that these men,
who are nothing more nor less than muir
derers, find apolosists in journals which
ought to have regard enough, if not for the
law, at least for the good tame of their
State, to set the seal Of condemnation upon
such outrages But evidently they have
not. For instance, we find the Watson
vile Transcript quoted as saying "Tho
g growing impression in San Benito
a. county that justice cannot be obtained
by legal process showed itself in the
"lynching of three horse-th;cves last
Thursday, If the people over there viii
lynch few nurderers, now, the county
will become more quiet" Next comes .
journal Of which we had warrant to expect
much better things, the Colusa Sun, which,
referring TO the reticence of the lynchers
regarding their murder of the thieves,
says They knew well enough that they
would be put to great trouble in going
Through the farce of a trial, and that
q then there would be no punishment
81 whatever meted out to the thieves, and
hence the least expensive mode was to
g give the Coroner a Job. It is not right
Is that organized society shall tax the i'll.

erty and 1hcn leave him to punish those
''who take Or destroy it, or have no pun
'ishnent inflicted. Whenever man be-
comes q confirmed criminal, organized

Is very fine tslk-for border rufiaus-but
unbecouing in those who assume TO adj
wise society as TO the best methods of at
tanning the common security
OF life, protection Of property ana the
pursuit Of happiness. There is in Snort,
no possible defense to be made for the men
who took their Henry rifles and cJolly fol-
lowed and shot down the alleged horse
thieves. They knew, and every ordinarily
intelligent person knows, that in so doing
they committed murder that 81 organized
society has, through its chosen me
dunn, made horse stealing grand larceny,
punishable by Imprisonment and nothing
more, and he who inficts greater pun
ishment becomes the greater criminal, and
more dangerous to organized society
than the horse-thief. while the men who
apologize for and uphold the crime, whether
by word OF mouth or in the columns of a
newspaper, become, morally, part;espS

the canoe and the snow-shoe.

LIFE SAVING.

While the news record of the day is so
full of lives lost, comparatively little
thought is given to the fact that there has
been much of life saving from disasters
upon the great unmarked paths Of the sea.
The returns Of the life saving stations on
the Atlantic coast are full of heroic deeds
and long lists of lives snatched from the
waves. On the great lakes the peril to
life is quite as great, and often greater,
than on the broader ocean. From July lst
to December II, 1879, no less than eighty
four vessels met with disasters on the
lakes, which placed their crews and pas
sengers, numbering GA souls. in imminent
peril. All of these beings were saved by
Government life-saving crews with one
solitary exception. The property on these
ships was valued at 81, 055. G62, of which
sufficient was saved by the crews to amount
in value to 1920, l69
The deeds of these lite-saving crews are
seldom recorded by facile pen; they
are written only upon the cold pages of
Governm ent reports, in the most concise
and methodical sentences, utterly stripped
of the romance and heroism which should
cling to them. But the stories OF the gal
LIANT deeds OF brave men of the life-service
are not wholly lost There are commune
ties where these hardy fellows are regarded
as true heroes, and the tales of their cour-
age and devotion are familiar to the public
car There is, for instance, the dra-
matte recital of the rescue of the
Captain and crew of the schooner Mercury,
which was driven upon bar, off shore
near Pentwater, in the midst of an awful
storm. Their solitary boat was disabled, the
rigging and hull covered with mail of ice,
and the vessel fast going to pieces. The
men, badly frozen, and aware of the fact
that no life-saving station was near, were
about to give up. They huddled together
in the cabin and bowed their heads, await
ing the grim visitor who comes but once.
Suddenly, in the middle of the night, there
appeared on the deck band OF heroes
they were the men from the life-saving sta
ton fifteen miles away, who, taking their
lives in their hands, had battled through
the furious seas and binding winters
storm to reach the wreck. and they saved
though with the utmost difficulty. every
soul on that vessel.
Another story is that of the loss of the
brig j. Bertsche, seven miles from Point
aux Barques. There were fopty-four per-

TROUBLE IN THE TEMPLE.

It is not all smooth sailing at the San
Francisco Metropolitan Temple. Rev.
Mayor Kalloch has been bearded i'll his
lair. On his own chosen ground one of
the faithful openly and in the presence of
all his people has charged him with failure
to keep faith with the church. 1t appears
that the trustees wanted less of political
harangue, and more of the love of God in
the pulpit. Mr.. Kalloch, as the repre-.
sentative on earth Of the Almighty, was
neglecting the cause of the latter for the
field OF politics. Kalloch had agreed with
his trustees to give up the forenoon exer-
cises at the Temple wholly to God, and in
consideration thereof the trustees were to
permit him to devote Sunday evenings in
the meeting house to either God, man or
the devil. Last Sunday morning, it is al
legged, the reverend Mayor violated this
agreement by the delivery of sermon
upon topics relating to the next election,
under the guise of a discourse preparatory
to full and patriotic embrace of the ma
TONS approaching birthday. Thereupon
Trustee Larzelere arose, and, marching I'M
til he stood under the very droppings of
the pulpit, charged the pastor with a
breach of faith, and the services concluded
in much confusion. Larzelere, it appears,
has many supporters, and the matter has
created considerable excitement. 1t is
barely possible Mr.. Kalloch will find he
has mistaken the temper of California con-
gregations after all, albeit they are patient
and long suffering.

edness IN Its management.
During the week ending June 9Th the
shipments from the Utah mines amounted
to Sl04, 600, including $50, LAG from the
Ontario and IS, 450 from the Leeds.
The La Plata Mining and Smelling Com.
pany have declared their tenth dividend,
aggregating Sl5, 600, payable in New York

carried over.
The Arizona Democrat says that the,
Silver Prince mine, near Prescott, for which
$50, 900 was paid. has struck four. foot
ledge of ore which averages IS, 600 to the
ton in horn silver and chlorides.
The Gold Stripe mine in Plumas county,
Cal, is again producing ore in sufficient
quantity to justify the starting of the
24-stamp mill, which was set in opera
ton few weeks ago. 1t is said that
new body of ore has been discovered.
The product of the California mine last
week was All tons ore, assaying S37 81,
and OF the Consolidated Virginia, l,2l5
tons, assaying $50 81. A shipment of
S62, S04 was made from the last named on
the 26th, and there is $50, $50 more at the
office.
A Nevada City Transcript reporter has
returned from Snow Point, twenty miles
northeast of that city, in Nevada county,
where there was recently made a great
strike of gold bearing gravel. Nuggets of
various sizes are being taken out, which
are valued at from 81 to $3.50. About half
dozen approximating the latter size were
found on Saturday. Pay gravel is found
for distance of % feet above the bed
rock. This is considered by reliable ex-
perts to be the best discovery made on the
coast in twenty-five years.

thoroughly disguised.
The Bay City Baseball Club has left the
California League and gone into the Pa
