THE LAW.

The tide of Love swells in me with such force
It sweeps away all hate and ali distrust,
As eddying straws and PARTICLES of dust
Are lost by some swift river in it's course.
So much / love my friends. my life, my art
Each shadow faies-the light dispels the gloom;
Love is so fair / find l have no room
For anything less worthy in my heart.
Love is a gem which we can cultivate
To grace and perfume sweeter than the rose;
Or leave Neglected, while our heart-soii grows
Rank with that vile and poison thistle-hate.
Love is a joyous thrush, that we can teach
To sing sweet lute-like songs which all may hear /;
Or we can silence him, and tune the ear q
To cav of crows, or to the ~vulture's screech.
Love is a feast; and if the guests divide
With all who pass. tho thousands swell the van,
There shall be food and drink for every man
The loaves and fishes will be multiplied.
Love is the guide. look to nights above,
So beautiful, so very far away;
Yes. 1 shall tread their sunlit peaks some day
Since close in mine / hold the hand of Love.
Love is the law. But yield to its control,
q And thou shalt find all things work for the best,
And, in the calm, still heaven of thy breast,
That God Himself sits talking with thy soul.

THAT INDIAN KILLING.
PAHRANAGAT VALLEY, Aug. 4, 1882.

PAHRANAGAr VALLEY, Aug. 4, 1882.
EDITOR RECORD: / noticed in the
the RECORD of JULY 22d, under the head
OF "Another in Pahranagat," based upon
information, my named connected with
the killing Of civil and docile Indian
for hcrding my stock off of my neighbors
crops. Now there is not one particle of
truth in the whole statement. But, to
stamp this with self-evdent falsehood,
the Indians every day since, as before,
have been with my consentl herding my
stock off from my neighbors, as well as
their own, gardens, and had | killed an
Indian for herding, no man could have
forced the Indians onto the ground to
herd any more. But, in the first place
on that day, and at that time, my stock
was not encroaching upon anyone, but
were all on my own place, and under my
own eye. was out on the farm at work
and saw an Indian come on my own
place, to COW which had calved some
three or four hours previous. He first
run the COW off from the calf, then re-
traced his steps, and caught the calf and
dumped it int small clump of weeds,
and cut its throat, while was hallowing
at him. He then left the calf and ran to
his camp. l followed him to the camp
for the purpose of ascertaining what In
dian it was. l suspicioned one, from his

it, corresponding with the color of the
calf The Indian seeing himself thus ex-
posed made fight, STOPPING for stones,
caught one up in his right hand, and
while in the act Of picking up another
with his left hand, | shot him down,
then walked off home. Now, these are
the facts in the case. | killed no Indian

cover of darkness, shoot my neighor's
horses, for trying to eat something that
stood out wholly unprotected by fence,
as the parties have done who circulated
this report, and who alone (among all the
citizens of this valley are malicious
enough to propagate report SO basely
false. Your information was all false
and your informer knew it. There was
one good citizen who visited the scene o
action to inform himself as to what were
facts, and whose affidavit stands on file
with my own, in the Justices Office fo
inspection. The reflection on the Justic,
was unjust. The reason Nichols com
plant was not heard was that he knew
nothing about the matter and would no
swear to anything.

There are many churches in Abyssinia
hewn out of solid rock. The mode of
constructing them was to have the stone
quarried away in such a manner as to
leave an immense solid block in the mid.
die. The next step was to give this mass
of rock externally the form of church.
1t is, in fact, so finished that it is made
to appear as if built of ordinary cubes of
stone masonary, the functions of the diff.
ferent stones being initiated very plainly
Finally the block was followed out, the
apertures being so made as to serve for
doors and windows. The interior ex-
hibits pillars, vaulted roofs and arches,
all being executed in neat and work.
manlike manner. These churches are,
accordingly, a species of monolith, and
appear to be almost unique among works
of architecture. The architect and builder
of them was certain Sidi Meskal, who
had constructed them with the assistance
of body of Egyptian and Syrian work
men, the chief implement used being the
pickaxe. The tradition of the place ia
that these churches were constructed
within period of twenty-three years.

REPORTED KILLING. A report comes
from the lower end of the county that
Hank Parrish has killed another man,
but cannot say whether the report is cor
rect or not. Rumor sayeth that the diff
ficulty took place in a mining locality
between Ivanpah and Ell Dorado, and
that Parrish, took hold of the mans ears
that he was quarrelling with and killed
him by knocking his head again the side
of a stone cabin. The above may be so,
then again it may not.
A CHINAMAS and white man got into
an alteration at Bullionville in regard to
business matters, and demonstrations
made by the son of Coufucius lead the
representative of the white race to be-
lieve that he was about to have new
head built on him, so he ran into the
butcher shop, grabbed up meat saw and
struck the Monaghan over the head with
it, splitting his skull. 1t is not known
whether the injured man will live or not.
The first bar of bullion was brought
up from the Dry Valley mill on Tuesday.
This is simply sort of side-slice, for il
is intended to work concentrations, which
will be disposed of to the Day Company

Our Next Representative

Mr.. Edat0r The action of the conven
ton at Cumberland seems to have infused
new life into what once seemed the mani
mate corpse Of Democratic success in this
District, and finds sanction in the breast o.
every man, irrespective of party, who is in
diligently interested in an economical and
Judicious representation.
Much has been said in favor of Judge
Blair which to the thoughtful mind would
seem superfluous, as he is so well and ia
vorably known among our people that the
fewest words that could be said in his COM
mendation would be the fittest eulogy upon
his character, for should any one attempt
by literary effort to paint the picture of UNI
swerving honesty and fidelity to the cause
he loved they might thereby bias the minds
OF the public. 1t is enough to say that liv-
ing even in this age, prolific of Islander and
prompt to accuse. that no charge that would
tend to injure his political or personal stand
Ing has ever been sustained. Judge Blair
has always been known as man who has
the courage ofhis convictions, and his fealty
TO political organizations is bound only so
long as the higher motives of life can be
promoted thereby.
The fact that Judge Blair was once one of
the most prominent Republicans of the age
seems to me to be point in his favor, for
Standing as he did upon the highest preci-
pice OF the political arena, he was able to
LOOK into and understand Republican vice
In its most tiattering form, and while the
conscience of most men would have been
blunted by the hope of gain, honor and dis
junction, he had the moral courage to re-
sign his position in the Cabinet and abandon
the principles of party that his own ex-
perience has proved to him to be corrupt
ana so, while in the enjoyment of its high
est privileges, amidst the Establishment of
Office and place, he changed his politics
rather than be false to his convictions and
WELD an influence in opposition to what he
considered his country's veal. If the ven
cradle statesman had no other claim to the
admiration and respect of the
age this simple but grand illustration of a
purity OF heart and honesty Of purpose
would shed halo of glory around his time
honored name and hand II down as an ex-
ample worthy the imitation of American
youth.
1t does not require extraordinary presci-
ence to ioresee that unless the wanton and
profiigate extravaganza of the dominant
party is checked this country will soon be
in critical condition. Judge Blair comes
forward and offers himself the champion of
Democratic reform, as an instrument in your
hands to accomplish this end. Will you
encourage his efforts, or will you shut your
eyes to the painful truth until other barriers
are placed before you and the convenient
season is past9 CT.
