A Negro's Eloqunce,

At Waxahache, during the last

lie was brought to trial, and evidence
was strong, and, Ia spite Of the good
fight made in his defense by his attorp'y
he was convicted, A motion for u
new trial was made, and the judge,
seeing that no error Of Law vas made,
and believing the evidence sufficient,
promptly ovemulcd the notion
When the prisoners were brought in
to be sentanced, this negro was among
them. Whoa asked il he had anything
TO say why the sentence should not be
passed upon him, he said no knew
anything he might say would have no
weight with the court, as all the forms
Of law had b cen complied with, and
he must 90 to the penitcntiary, but he
had something to say for the benefit
of his colored friends, and, with the
permission of the court, he would
make few remarks. The court told
him that he would listen The negro
started off slowly and deliberately
reviving the testimony, showing the
Inconsistencies Of witnesses state.
NETS, and then, carried iaway with the
idea OF the wrong done him, he burst
forth in strain Of eloquence seldom
heard, When he sat down the jud &c
said: "Sam thought You guilty; |
don't believe so now, and will set
aside the judgement overriding your
motion for new trial and give you
another chance So eloquent mad
the negro presented his case, that the
county attorneys dismissed the case,
and the prisoner walked out ofthe
court room free man. This is the
first case, IN Texas at least, where a
man brought up to be sentenced was
ever turned loose. Every person

The Gold Park Mines.

M. San Pedro, Superintendent of this
series of mines in Nye county, makes the
following report under date Of Aug IL:
1.-THE portions Of the mine from which
l am now extracting ore have improved
materially SINCE my last report. The ore
bodies continue to enlarge as development
progresses, with a daily improvement in
the grade Of ore as We gain in depth on
the vein. I have taken from No. 8 ore
body over 5000 tons, and from present
appearances there is double that amount
in sight. In the Brooklyn the prospecting
and opening up Of No. 8 level goes steadily
on, with good indications of oon striking
an ore body that will repay us well for our
labor. The slopes look we'll and are fur
nishing a splendid grade Of ore. The mill
is running steadily and doing fair work"

pairing to Head OF Gould.
We learn from reliable sources, says the
Ogden Pilot, Of activity on the part Of the
Central Pacific Company in planning for
future lines Of communication, which
shows that the company has not been idle
in matters pertaining to new routes. At
Corinne a party Of surveyors, with their
teams and all necessary camp equipago
and instruments, have. rendezvoused and
are getting ready to start upon a pre-
iiminary survey for a new route east.
Another party Of surveyors reached Ogden
to-day and will soon be on the march for
their field of operations. The plan en-
braces that OF a road from q connection
with the Central Pacific at Corinne, or
Ogden. to a connection with the Chicago
* Northwestern at Yankton, Dakota.
This line will be 900 miles in length, pass
ing through q good country, with easy
grades, and forming a connection with one
of the best companies in the East. II is
said that a combination Of the Central
Pacific and the Chicago a Northwestern
has been formed to build this
ing line, which will give the two roads a
through line. A party Of surveyors have
started from the eastern end of this line,
which runs through Northern Nebraska,
after crossing the Missouri River at or
near Yanktop. 1t appears that G. P.
Huntington, of the Central Pacific Di-
rectory, has been busy in perfecting his
plans and that this e enterprise is only
one of the extensive systems of new roads,
a~ggregating several thousand miles in ex-
tent, which are to be built by this COM
pany. 1t looks as if their operations in
railway building would be on a scale of
equal magnitude with other similar
schemes in the Great. West.

miles southwest from Palisade. The mine
Is within two miles OF the G. p.

made, and as many more will probably be
made in q day or two. One-half OF the

tend to its publication. Some people think
it possible that Mr.. Young may, on perusal
of the manuscript, find it SO much ~livelier
than anything he ever wrote, that he will
issue it as an original work. MI. Daggett
disclaims any journalistic or Mint super
~intendency aspirations, and proposes to be-
gin the work of developing his coal mine
