THE INTER OCEAN has from the beginning been
the defender of home Institutions a1d American
ideas 1t is the ed0ocate OF equal rights for all be-
fore the law, of protection to American labor and
of the idea that America is for Ar1ercans--n
essary Americans by birth, but true citizens of the
Republic. It believes in the West and Western
men, holds to the idee tll6t the future seat Of
pire VIII be in the Mississippi Valley, and is bold
and aggressive in its opposition to the Unhoy sli-
ance between the money changers Of New York
City and the States lately in rebellion.
THE INTER OCEAN is earnestly IN favor Of the
Republican party because it believes the principles
OF that party correct, and that, honestly car
red out, they will best protect the rights and ad-
vance the interests OF the whole people It is not
however q blind follower, but IS always ready to
denounce Republican wrong doing, either in high
or low places.
THE INTER OCEAN has always maintained that
the Nation is under obligation to tne soldiers OF
the late war who jeCpardzsd their ivoS TO protect
it from armed treason, which it can never repay,
and, consequently, has advocated the establish
rnent Of Soldiers Homes and tho enactment o.
such pension laws as would leave no disabled vet

Another cave.

The Eureka Standard says: In
the Angus mine at Taylor, White
Pine county, wonderful cave was
discovered the fore part of this
week. 1t goes down about perpen-
dicularly and is of great size. The
side formation is peculiar, yet it is
reported that it is ore, and of such
character that it will yield high as
says. The new find has not been
prospected as yet, accordingly its
dimensions and the true nature of
the ore beneath it's lorications of
stalactites and stalagmites cannot
be definitely stated. If the depth
is of the extent reported the dis
covery will save the company quite
an item in the matter of expenses
in sinking.

sale of Goods.

When vender sells goods Of a
specified quality, but not in exist
ence or ascertained, and undertakes
to ship them to a distant buyer,
when made or ascertained, and de
livers them to the carrier for the
purchaser, the latter is not bound
to accept them without examina-
ton. The mere delivery of the
goods by the vender to the carrier
does not necessarily bind the ven
dee to accept them. On their ar
rival he has the right to inspect
them to ascertain whether they
conform to the contract, and the
right to inspect implies the right
to reject them if they are not Of
the quality required by the con-
tract. Pope ct al. vs.. Allis, de-

A Brutal Captain.

BosToN, April 1O.-The mutiny
which resulted in the burning of
the Boston ship Frank n, Thayer
in the South Atlantic Ocean in
January, will be recalled as one of
the bloodiest tragedies Of recent
history Seven of the crew of the
ship reached this city yesterday
from St. Helena. Their names are
VIM, St. Clair of San Francisco,
August Kaefer of Germany, John
kinman and Robert Sanborn of
Sweden. Louis Arson, Ii. Wilson
and G. Henderson of Norway. They
state that Captain Clarke and
Mate Holmes were very abusive
and that was the undoubted cause
of the mutlny. 1t was common
thing to hear the noise of beating
aud clubbing Of sailors in the night
and this accounts for no notice be-
ing taken of the mutiny IN which
two men only were concerned until
they had secured possession Of the
ship which they held for more
than twenty-four hours. The two
Manila men who committed the
murders were frequently beaten
and it was the outrageous tyranny
inflicted on Thorn which led to the
mutiny. Ike men gave detailed
accounts of their brutal treatment
and also story of the mutiny sim
liar to that which has already been
printed,

The Chicago Inter-Ocean says:
The public is gradually beginning
to believe that the railroad lines
doing business between the Missouri
river and California are parties to
monster scheme for advertising
and booming the land of plenty in
the West. The present rates are so
low that the railroads lose heavily
on every train they run, but the
opinion prevails that general
movement has been organized for
the opening up for better business
facilities with California, for the
increase of traffic and the inspec-
ton of the State and its products
by Eastern capitalists and sight
seers. California fruit and wine
and other products which have
found their way to Eastern markets
are coming in very beautifully and
at low cost. and the fact that
California it-growers are holding
fairs in Eastern cities. is also a
noteworthy one. Rates are SO low
that people who never before could
secure a passage from here to San
Francisco can now 90 there and
back for almost nothing.
