SHEER NERVE.

Gen. Sherman must be credited with
candor. The old soldier blurts out his
opinion on any subject without ever
thinking of policy. Either this or else
his seeming bluntness is only foxiness.
At any rate, he can hardly be charged
with an effort to make himself popular
by saying that Huntington is entitled
to a land grant" for his civilizing infu-
ence as a railroad builder. Ii he is cum.
ming, he is very cunning. If he is only
bold, his boldness is certainly refreshing.
While the general howl is damnation to
railroad people, there is something
unique in the expression Of a man occu-
plying Gen. Sherman's eminent place
before the public, that ''the Government
could afford to build railroads and give
them away with miles of land on either
side" The Generals speech on rail
roads, to be found in yesterdays SENTI-
MEL, recalls to mind the nerve he dis.
played during a political campaign a few
years ago in Virginia City, when he ad.
dressed a crowd and spoke plainly in
favor Of Chinese labor.

The resolution offered by Mr. Town
send in the House OF Representatives on
Monday callingfora constitutional amend
ment to change the mode of electlng
limited States Senators will meet, we be-
lieve, with general approval. State
Legislatures have enough to do without
attending to this election. AT present
legislative action hinges on the Senator
ship. and until that matter is disposed OF
everything else must remain at a dead
~standstill. There is no good reason, any
way, why the United States Senator
should be elected, as now, at second
hand. The general voter elects a State
legislator who then elects United States
Senator. This is a roundabout way OF
doing business Why this double pro-
cess? Why should not the people name
their Senators directly as they do their
Congressman? There is nothing that
we know of against the direct way but
custom and a sort OF tradition. An
election of Senators by popular vote
would doubtless also diminish the cor
r~uption that feeds on such elections. 1t
would be more difficult to bride individ-
ual voters in a centralized one-man fight
in which the candidate appeals for him.
self to everybody, than it is now where
the person most interested is behind the
scenes, and who, through local candidates
for the Legislature, gets votes that per-
haps he could not get for himself directly.

SPRUNG FROM THE MINES.

The Salt Lake Tribune makes a glow
ing sketch of mining life, and cites some
striking examples OF men who have risen
from under the soil" to conspicuous
places:
Tabor was one of the vulgar ones, but
he has made Denver to shine with glories
which, except for the rough miner, she
would never have put on. }. 7. Jones is
another. His life from boyhood had
been on the frontier, yet at a bound he
went to sit in the Senate OF the United
States; and went there carrying no repn'
tation save that he was rich. HIS first
speech drew the Senate as eager listeners
around him, and the argument he then
delivered still stands unanswered and
unanswerable, because he prepared it as
he would have set a timber In a shaft or
drift, so that no falling mass, no pressure
of swelling clay, no accident could dis
turb it. So, another miner, with but a
single associate, is proposing to lay a
double cable under the big Atlantic; and
we suspect that in his quick brain the in
tention to girdle the world with copper
wire has already matured. Another one
sent some blooded horses to England and
stole the coveted victories from the turf
in the land where the modern thorough
bred was created. Allen G. Campbell
went back from here to Kansas City a
couple of years ago. He was asked to
subscribe something for an academy. He
asked how much the academy would
cost, and when told the sum and how it
was hoped the money could be raised, he
cut the explanation short by saying he
would furnish the amount himself.
Sharon has built the finest hotel in the
world; Mills has built the finest block in
New York; Flood is preparing to build
the finest private residence on earth;
Ryan is making st. Paul big-eyed with
the structure he is going to build there.
These things are all types in their way.
Mining gives men brave and grand ideas,
which are shown alike in their virtues
and vices.

Recovery of A. Il. Stewards Body
SAN Francisco, Jan. ga Chronicle
New York special announces the alleged
recovery of the body Of A. I. Stewart. A
dispatch states that Judge Hilton realized
the danger he had incurred when he re-
fused to negotiate for the recovery of the
body. through an attempt made to steal his
seven-year-old boy. The attempt was
frustrated. Then came an anonymous let
ter saying: ''You were in time last night.
The next time you will be too late"
Hilton then yielded to Mrs. Stewards
views of the case, and negotiations were re.
opened. At last the sum of $50, 900 was
fixed upon, the thieves insisting upon get
ting the money in hand before the delivery
of the body. The place selected for the
delivery was a small bare hill in Wes-
chester county, commanding the approach
es from every side. The directions to
Judge Hilton ran virtually thus: We will
be there at 4 O'Clock Sunday morning with
the body. You send one man, unarmed,
on foot, with $50, 900 for US. When he has
given us the money we will leave him in
possession of the body. The programme
was carried out. The money was paid and
the body recovered. While the negotia-
tions were pending the villains proved
their identity by sending to Judge Hilton
a piece of paper exactly the size and shape
Of a piece of zigzag cloth they cut from
the lining of the coffin they had left be-
hind them in Stewards vault.

The Wine Outlook.

The growth of the yiticulural in
tcrcSt in this state, although slow at
present will. as the newly planted vines
mature, be so rapid thata serious qucs-
tion arises now MS to whether 4 market
will be found for our wine at the end
Of ten years. This continent will
certainly not afford n sufficient mar
kct, burt Europe will it is hoped, open
up trade which in the long run will
far exceed the present demand for
wheat. The demand for wine in Eu-
rope is as certain as the demand for
bread. And if the nome product can
not supply the amount required itmust
be imported. The state of affairs now
existing in France may be taken rs Il
proof that the pure white wine of
California will have no difficulty in
finding Il European market, On the
subject of adultcratiOn and the manu-
facture Of spurious wines in France,
the LoRd0H T,mcS says
"Out of 5000 samples analy2cd, 27g
were found to be good, 99l paSsablc,
and l,13l bad, while in the first five
months of the present year 1860 sam
pies were analyZcd, out of which 372
were good, 6S3 passablc, and Sl4 bad,
l3j of these latter being pronounced
decidedly injurious.
A liquid is largely sold as wine
which is manufactured of water,
vinegar and logwood, with Il tenth part
of common wine from the south of
France to cover the fraud Not only
is wine faisilied by adding cider, sugar,
molassGs, tartaric, acGtic, or fannie
acids, sulphuric acid, lime, alum, bit
ter almonds, leaves Of the cherry-lau-
rel, etc, but 1t is largely manufactured
without the slightest pretense of being
associated with the grape. The result
of the fermentation of the juice of the
grape is initiated by means of fer
mentation with water of sugared sub
stances, such rs syrup of fecula, dried
fruits and raw sugar, or of juniper
berries, coriander seeds and fresh rye
bread. After fermentation the liquor
is rackcd off, and if it is not sufficiently
colored, an infusion of red beet or myr-
tic berries is added. In order to cor
rect the ascidity, some makers are un-
scrupulous enough to use litharge,
thus aflording to the drinkers the prob
able chance of an attack of collie. ="

cause to doubt that the pure wines of
California will find aready sale at reas-
enable prices?-Sdn Francisco Duty

Facts About American Newspapers.

New daily newspapers were cstab-
lished in the United States last year at
the rate OF one new newspaper every
three days. lhe increase OF 3lS daily
newspapers carried the total for the
United states and territories up to l.
las. During the same period the num-
ber OF periodicals OF all sorts, daily,
scmi-weekly, weekly, monthly and
quarterly, grew from ll,lSG to 1861.
About iiye-sevenths of all the period
icalS published in the country are
weekly papers. The number of month
lies exceeds the number of dailics by
nearly three hundred.
These figures are derived from the
latest edition Of the .imcricm NcwS-
