The conviction of Felix Munshow-
er by the Frederick County Court of
murder in the first degree for the
killing of his cousin, James l.. Wet
zell. in the woods near Emmitsburg,
last summer, was the result of chain
of circumstantial evidence which
could not be broken. AS the States
Attorney was led to say at the OPEN
ing of the trial, the evidence which
could be adduced was purely of
clrcumstaItial nature; but it turned
out to be of so cumulative charac-
ter that it apDroxinated the force of
direct evidence, and left the jury no
room to doubt the guilt of the accus.
ed. 1t is a rare thing in court annals,
to find such a well connected chain
of circumstantial proof of guilt as
has marked this trial but the senti-,
ment of the community will, un-
doubtedly, endorse the finding of the
jury. Munshower, it was shown, was
a profiigate and spendrift, who had
wasted patrimony on fast horses.
fancy dogs and liquor, and who found
himself at the end of his rope. The
only cause that can be given for the
crime was robbery, and one of the
first evidences Of guilt was that
Munshower was found few days af-
ter the crime to be flush with money,
which he had undoubtedly taken
from the dead body of his cousin.
AS the case went on, link after link
was formed in the chain of circum-
stantial evidence until at last the
guilt of the accused was as clearly
proven as if reliable witness had
come forward and sworn that he had
seen the crime committed.

THE PACIFIC STATES AND THE
CHINESE. The Pacific States can
withhold twelve electoral votes from
any ticket which is not solemnly and
specifically pledged to restrict Chi
nese immigration, as demanded by
the only people in the Union who
have had practical experience of the
effect of Chinese competition on our
laboring class, and on business gen.
orally, On this point the people on
this coast should present a united
front. There is no other question
that compares with this in the mag
nitude of the interests involved. 1t
makes comparatively little difference
to US how the currency question is
settled whether we have $500 ,000,-
900 OF government notes in circula-
ton, or the same amount of national

The people of this coast are neither
going to submit to competition with
Chinese coolies, nor are we going to
give up this magnificent State to that
race. We shall make way out of
the trouble, and before long We shall
have the working classes of the East
with us. Our present policy is to
protect ourselves as far as possible by
local legislation, and encourage the
transit of our unwelcome visitors to
Eastern cities. We know how pub
lie sentiment changed in this State
when the Chinese appeared in num-
hers, and we can count on a like re-
suit in the East. Meantime, if there
is no national party blessed with
sufficient foresight to make Chinese
immigration an issue, this coast can
give twelve votes to some party that
will.-Sdn francisco CaH.

Ii the German press represent truly
the state of sentiment among the
German-A American voters, the Grant
movement arouses nothing but hos.
tility among them. The German
press of Ohio is unanimously and,
decidedly opposed to General Grants
denomination. The St. Louis Vest
"che Post, the leading German Re-
publican paper of the West, declares
that Grant could not possibly receive
the German vote. AT the same time
the New York Repu6Licaner a lead
ing German Republican paper of the
East, says
There is very general opposition
among the 5000 German A merican
voters of the North to the proposi-
ton OF again making the ex-Presi-
dent candidate, which, hSrnanifests.
ltseif SAmong German. Americans Of
both parties. In fact, they are almost
united on that subject, and very
many German Republican Journals
go 50 far in their disapprovai of that
effort as to be willing to support any
Democratic candidate, provided he is
no rebel or public enemy, in the
event of General Grants candidacy.
Since the German-American element
holds the key TO the situation in
seven Northern states, viz: New
York, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wis
c9nsin, Michigan and Minnesota,
common caution and prudence should
prompt the leaders, who have the
machinery in hand, to take this cir
cumstance into the most serious con-
sideratiOn."
1t would be useless to inquire the
reasons for this opposition to Gener-
al Grants nomination. If it really
exists, the fact Is entitled to very
serious consideration.

HUMBOLDT LAKE. =
A Large Body of Water on the East Side
of the Island

j. w. Brown, who resided for years
near the Sink Of Humboldt, and for
whom Browns Station, on the Central
Pacific Railroad, was named, informs
us that the report published in the
SILVER STATE, upon the authority of
Valley Schmidt, is not correct. Mr..
Brown says that the west side of the
lake is dry, and as persons travelling
along the railroad cannot see east Of
the island, which divides the Lake in
time of high water, they would natu-
rally suppose that the whole sink oY
lake is dry, which, however, is not the
case. Mr.. Brown thinks the sheet of
water on the east side of the leland is
fed by springs, and does not depend
altogether or the quantity of water
running into It from the river. Will
liam Moore, who lives at the upper end
OF the island, informs Mr.. Brown thas
west Of the island, where there is sew
eral feet of water some seasons, is now
an a.kali fiat, bat that the east lake is
not dry, and has not been since the
whites came to the country, nor within
the memory of the Oldest Piutes- This
arm of the lake is seven or eight miles
long, and from two to three miles wide,
extending over an area of several thou
sand acres. and Mr. Brown is satisfied
from inquiries made by him that there
is as much water in it now as there was
ia the Fall of 1868.
