ANAHEIM VOL. 7. WEEKLY GAZETTE. Established 1870. SATURDAY... FEBRUARY 24, 1877. Justice Strong is a man of very firm convictions. The look out at Washington is considered Hazy. It has been discovered that the Judges of the Supreme Court are human. 1881. Samuel J. may have to wait Tilden before he is inaugurated. Oliver P. is said to have Morton(e) about him than most Senators—and yet Olivia's son is by some said to be Thur-man. A pound of green copperes, dissolved in a quart of water, is said to be the cheapest and best disinfectant which the present epidemic has caused to be discovered. Ex-CANINE APPREHENDER ROGERS says that, in spite of his counsel's efforts to Look Learned, and a Shower of eloquence enough to break your Hart-man, he was convicted, and contemplates Drowning himself. It is said that truth lies at the bottom of a well. Well-a, does the rule hold good in the case of Louisiana's Governor? Here is a Field for example, but we hope not Dudley discussion. SUNDAY OBSERVANCE. In these days of Skepticism, of Deism, Pan-theism, Materialism, etc., we think the benefits that have resulted from religion and its observances are apt to be overlooked. We do not propose to enter into a learned disquisition upon the question of faith and no faith, nor do we propose to say which may or may not be the true faith. We simply wish to allude, in a curtory manner, to one of the great benefits resulting from religion i.e., the Sunday holiday. As a matter of fact, it is directly due to religion that we are blessed with one day of rest in the week; and every one, from the Banker or Merchant Prince to the day laborer, should rejoice that it is so. In this age of hurry and drive, when the tendency is to treat man and beast like a machine and get all the work practicable out of them in the least possible space of time, the breathing time given to the army of workers, by the observance of Sunday, is indeed a boon. All who have had their noses kept to the grindstone for six successive days know what a glorious feeling one experiences on waking up on Sunday morning and revelling in the consciousness of the fact that rest is the pleasant order of business for one day, at any rate. A happy day, passed in the society of wife and children, for the married man, a hurried visit home or a glorious spooning with the intended, for the single youth, or a happy day on the beach or in the woods, after service, for a jolly party of single and married folks, are among the attractions looked forward to by many. The feeling of intense relief that is experienced from an utter absence of any "task" to be performed is indeed grateful.

It is said that truth lies at the bottom of a well. Well-s, does the rule hold good in the case of Louisiana's Governor? Here is a Field for example, but we hope not Dudley discussion. The Nevada Legislature has passed a bill providing that persons convicted of wife-beating shall be punished by exposure, fastened to a post and bearing on their breast a placard stating the nature of the offense they have committed. It is to be hoped that this law will not be declared unconstitutional, as was the one passed by the last California Legislature, providing for the punishment of wife-beating by a cat-o-nine-tails. The Chinese at home seem to be as averse to the influx of foreigners as the people of this coast are to an influx of Chinese. The Rev. John Butler, a Presbyterian minister, who has travelled extensively in China, says that the hatives generally "do not want us there, nor our commerce, civilization or religion." They earnestly desire the expulsion of all foreigners, and would speedily effect it but for the Government. The Anti-Quackery law, so-called, which was brought into existence by the last State Legislature—"the legislature of many blunders"—proves to be like the majority of measures promulgated by said legislature, unconstitutional and inoperative. The notorious Benjamin F. Josselyn, of San Francisco, who was indicted and tried for violating the law, by practicing medicine without a license, was acquitted by the jury after a deliberation of three quarters of an hour. The Rev. Joseph Cook, who has come into sudden fame as a preacher in Boston, thus touched on New York politics in a sermon: "Eighteen or twenty thousand voters in every municipal election in New York cannot read or write; and they are a make-weight sufficient, in the hands of a few astute and unscrupulous men, to determine the result of any ordinary political contest in that city. Drop out her 20,000 ignorant ballots, and New York city politicians say, could, with no great difficulty, be restored to the control of her industrious and intelligent classes." Mr. Cook's advice is that nobody be allowed to vote who cannot read. Mrs. Janette M. Robinson, of Chicago, says that she has been cured of paralysis in direct answer to prayer, and several of the clergymen of the city vouch for the truth of her story. She was, according to her account, a helpless invalid for seven years. Phyllis were six vein and she steadily and revelling in the consciousness of the fact that rest is the pleasant order of business for one day, at any rate. A happy day, passed in the society of wife and children, for the married man, a hurried visit home or a glorious spooning with the intended, for the single youth, or a happy day on the beach or in the woods, after service, for a jolly party of single and married folks, are among the attractions looked forward to by many. The feeling of intense relief that is experienced from an utter absence of any "task" to be performed is indeed grateful. That the benefit derived from this day of rest is incalculable, we need not say. That it invigorates the body and mind and fits us for the coming week of labor is universally admitted. In the country, whether on a farm or in a rural town, the Sunday day of rest is hailed with delight; a thousand times more welcome is it in large, overcrowded cities. In such cities as New York, Philadelphia, etc., Sunday is the only day on which the hard-worked mass of toilers get an opportunity of leaving the smoky town behind them, and breathing new life and inhaling fresh vitality in green meadows and under spreading trees, to be found only in the country. Let our working people think for a moment of the China-men, toiling along day in and day out, Sunday and week day the year round, knowing no holiday save New Year, and ask themselves how they would like such a course of work. As we said before, the Sunday day of rest is an incalculable benefit to our nation; a boon beyond price, and its observance is due to the efforts of the teachers of religion. Religious bodies fought for Sunday observance; they caused Sunday to be made a national holiday. In every State of the Union it is protected by law, though we believe the protection is unencoded, so strong is the moral influence in favor of its observance. It is due to the efforts of the religious bodies that rich and poor alike enjoy their weekly day of rest, and the thanks of the nation are their just due. If religion had done nothing save this good work alone, it would have done much; for it has conferred a blessing on the human race that will endure forever; a blessing that affects all living under Christian rule, old and young, rich and poor—from the totering grandsire to the pretty toddling little prattler he loves to carve; all are included in this blessing, and a blessing indeed it is. Sceptic and bigot alike are agreed upon the advantages derived from this day of rest, and its continued observance is a question admitting of no doubt. And so, on this quiet Sunday morning, as our readers prepare for their various ways of enjoying their holiday, we ask one and all to thank the good man who in past generations battled for religion and the sanctity of the Sabbath, for through their efforts millions enjoy the privilege of one day's rest in the week. In the article on small-pox, contributed by Dr. D'Assonville, there were some omissions which the following communication will explain: At the medical grower's at w MRS. JANETTE M. ROBINSON, of Chicago, says that she has been cured of paralysis in direct answer to prayer, and several of the clergymen of the city vouch for the truth of her story. She was, according to her account, a helpless invalid for seven years. Physicians were in vain, and she steadily grew worse. Her jaws became fixed by long diause, and she could not speak. One day, when particularly despondent, her physician having told her that she could not recover, she read in her Bible the text, "All things whatsoever ye ask, believing, ye shall receive." She had faith in that Scriptural promise, and she prayed fervently that she might be miraculously cured. Suddenly she was able to move her jaws, and to speak. She got up and walked without difficulty, and has been well ever since. The failure of the American Paper Car Wheel Company was alluded to with much regret by the Iron Age in a recent issue. Speaking of the invention, that good authority said: "We know nothing of the business or financial management of the company, which was probably good, but we do know something of the paper-car wheels made by them, and are extremely sorry they have not been regarded with more favor by our railroad managers. Beneath the heaviest of Pullman palace cars these wheels have shown an extraordinary amount of endurance, while their elastic, or, more properly, cushioned centres have greatly improved the riding of the cars. In the matter of safety they were all that could be desired, since there seem to be few if any accidents that could render them dangerous. Although their first cost is greater than that of a cast iron wheel, yet the expense of running them beneath a car for a series of years is much less, even when interest account is reckoned. Even when the mileage of the cast-iron wheel is between 60,000 and 60,000 miles—a very good figure—still the paper wheel could compete with it on the basis of mileage, and have a decided advantage when the cost of replacing wheels and the delay to cars are taken into account." D'ASSONVILLE Senator Booth made a very neat retort in replying to a rather offensive remark made by Senator Dawes, while discussing the Pacific Railroad bill on Saturday. Dawes insinated against Booth that he (Dawes) had no claim against the railroads and no old scores to pay off. To which Booth replied by remarking that the gentleman from Massachusetts, like Talleyrand, had the faculty of meaning what he did not say and saying what he did not mean. WEEKLY EIM GATE ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA: SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1877. Impeachment of the Canine Apprehender. The High Mucky Mucks held a solemn conclave on Thursday evening. Grave and serious charges had been brought against the newly elected dog catcher, which, if proved true, would cause him to be stripped of his badge of office, and forever barred the rights and privileges of the order. The Judge looked solemn and stern. The prosecuting attorney scowled and picked his white teeth in anticipation of the cruel onslaught to be made upon the fair fame and reputation of the prisoner. The members seated themselves quietly, and anxiously waited for the proceedings. In one corner of the room, closely guarded by the officers, sat the dejected prisoner, holding a nervous, anxious conversation with his counsel and a few trusty friends; around them spread the black gloom of despondency. The charge was read; Mr. Rogers was accused of high crimes and misdemeanor; accused of malfeasance in office, of drunkenness, laziness and general inefficiency. He pleaded "not guilty." Witnesses were called, who held up their left hand and swore that they would tell an amount of truth corresponding to the respect and esteem they held for the order of the Mucky Mucks. They testified to the fact that Rogers was a fraud; that he never caught a dog when he could help it; that he let the dogs loose after he had caught them and then caught the dogs over to get a double fee; that he had no secure place to keep them; that he was too slow to catch them; that he slept the most of the time; that he was drunk all the time; that he did not wear his star; and that he had many things he ought not to do, and left undone those things he ought to do. One witness testified that he was generally middling sober in the abstract and very drunk in the concrete. The attorney for the prosecution summed up: Three Fisher Meblena. Three malicious went sailing out into the world, Out into the world of small event floor. Each thought that her hair was most grasfully curled, And their mothers stood watching them out from the door. For men must work, that women may keep The length of their revels, last ever they weep, And their fond manna be sowling. Three fathers set up by their infants no thank, And they opened their accounts with their hands low down. And they added their bills and their checks on the bank. And read the dread roll of the day's wrecks in town. Though lonely his lot and troubles deep, The pattern paper's not growing. Three bankrupts were posted in marvelous print, In the Morning Gazette, as the panic went down; And their daughters went daily from town to farm, But men must work, yet the woman will weep, And the sooner they're married, the sooner to sleep. And diffily the manners and life sowling. The Lost Steamer "George S. Wright." Doubtless many of our citizens remember the fact of the disappearance of the propeller George S. Wright, on her voyage down the coast from Alaska, three or four years ago, as was supposed by wreck or explosion. Efforts were made to ascertain something about her fate and those on board. Expeditions were sent out and the channels and shores examined, but all in vain; not a vestige of the ship nor of her unfortunate crew and passengers could be obtained. The Indians of the coast knew nothing of her, or pretended not to know. But now the report comes that an Indian belonging to some tribe to the north had reached Victoria, B.C., and reported that fifteen white men and an Indian had reached shore from the lost propeller, and were all brutally murdered by the Indians, and their bodies thrown into the sea. This report of the strange Indian is said to be received with distrust by the people of Victoria, but why is not said. Advertising by "Splurges." Profitable and successful advertising is an art founded upon principles which may be said to constitute a science. Most sagacious businessmen who advertise extensively do not go upon blind irregular impulses, but proceed according to an intelligent and well-considered system which they have deliberately adopted. Such men understand perfectly that one of the most valuable secrets of papitable advertising consists in constantly keeping themselves and their special line of business before the public. The name of the firm its location and the articles or class of articles in which deals must be familiarized to the public eye, and through that to the public mind. It is the constant dripping that makes its impression upon even the hardest rock. To effect this, steady and continuous advertising is far better than occasional splurges, no matter how showy and attractive. It is no doubt true that a big splurge three or four times a year, filling a column or two with display heads and double leaded matter, has its effect. But unless those spasmodic appeals are supplemented and reinforced by small standing advertisements they are in danger of making no lasting impression. In the long run the persistent advertiser whose mume stares, the reader in the face every time he takes up his paper, will accomplish his object much more effectually than his rival who relies upon a splurge every three or six months. This is a principle which needs only to be stated in order to secure recognition by sagacious business men; and almost all men of that class who have succeeded in building up a great business by advertising have acted upon it. S. F. Chronicle. Farmers Will Take Notice. Most of our readers are apprised that there is a national law for the encouragement of tree planting, whilst the fewest number know that California has also offered inducements in the same direction. By an Act passed in At the meeting of Napa County wine growers, at which was passed the memorial amount of truth corresponding to the respect and esteem they held for the order of the Mucky Mucks. They testified to the fact that Rogers was a fraud; that he never caught a dog when he could help it; that he let the dogs loose after he had caught them and then caught the dogs over to get a double fee; that he had no secure place to keep them; that he was too slow to catch them; that he slept the most of the time; that he was drunk all the time; that he did not wear his star; and that he did many things he ought not to do, and left undone those things he ought to do. One witness testified that he was generally middling sober in the abstract and very drunk in the concrete. The attorney for the prosecution summed up the testimony and hurled at the unfortunate dog catter charges and accusations, causing him to turn black with shame and mortification. His counsel made a noble effort to clear his client, but it was of no avail; he could not prove black to be white. The Judge, in stentorian tones, commanded the guilty prisoner to "hold up his head and receive his sentence." The trembling catiff raised his head and the Judge continued: "Mr. Rogers, you have proved yourself to be an inefficient officer, and a disgust to the order. You are, therefore, relieved from your office and expelled from the fraternity. You will deposit your badge of office upon my desk and depart." The Court then adjourned, and slowly and sally the friends of the prisoner filed out of the court-room and sought the nearest saloon to drown their sorrow in the flowing bowl. Mr. Rogers swore and cussed until he was black in the face. He is determined to appeal the case and asserts his ability to prove his character to be, unlike his person, white as the driven snow. George H. Dietzler, President of the Alden Fruit Preserving Company, says that quite a number of new Alden factories will be started this year and several old ones will be enlarged. One is now being built at Riverside, San Bernardino county, and is being fitted up especially for raisin curing. It will have two evaporators of double the capacity of those heretofore built, and with a finishing chamber, will cure about five tons of grapes every 24 hours, of better quality than heretofore produced, as a lower degree of heat will be used and a longer time given to the grapes in the finishing chamber without any additional expense for labor or fuel. He further says that his company has secured several patents for using solar heat in connection with their apparatus, which will save about one-half the fuel now required. This solar heat arrangement is not expensive, and can be applied to the Alden factories already built. We quote the gentleman's words: Our evaporators heretofore built have been too small for raisin curing—the work was too slow; but the factory at Riverside, with two machines, will turn out more raisins, and we hope to produce a better raisin, and prove that superior raisins can be made by artificial heat, and at less cost than by the old methods, with their expensive cement floors. By the latter methods the yield is one pound of raisins from five pounds of grapes, while by the Alden process and perhaps some other artificial heating processes the yield is one pound from three pounds of grapes. With grapes at one cent per pound, the difference is $40 per ton of cured raisins in favor of the Alden process, which is quite a handsome margin of profit. At the meeting of Napa County wine growers, at which was passed the memorial efforts were made to ascertain something about her fate and those on board. Expediitions were sent out and the channels and shores examined, but all in vain; not a vestige of the ship nor of her unfortunate crew and passengers could be obtained.

But now the report comes that an Indian belonging to some tribe to the north had reached Victoria, B.C., and reported that fifteen white men and an Indian had reached shore from the lost propeller, and were all brutally murdered by the Indians, and their bodies thrown into the sea. This report of the strange Indian is said to be received with distrust by the people of Victoria, but why is not said. The report, however, does not differ very much from what might have been anticipated by those who understand the character of those natives along the coast. It is not likely that their natures and characters have materially changed from those of their ancestors. There are some of us who recollected a book published many years ago which gave an account of their attacking and gaining possession of one or more anchored ships in the harbors on the northern coast, and putting most of the crews to death without mercy. This may have been the fate of the crew of the Wright, as told by the Indian. Ropes and Belting from the Entraits of Sheep. Gut belting, a new species of rope, and much stronger, in proportion to thickness than hemp, is being manufactured at North Oakland, from the entrails of sheep. The supply of the material comes from the Oakland Abbatoir also from Butchertown. No such manufacture has been introduced elsewhere in America, but in Europe it has been attempted on a limited scale. The entrails of the sheep are about fifty-five feet in length. After a thorough cleansing they are placed in vats of brine, where they remain several days. They are capable of sustaining at this stage a weight of ten pounds. The gut is then wound on hobbies, from which it is reeled off and twisted in the ordinary manner into rope. If a flat rope is wanted, the gut is woven into plaids of any size, but for round ropes, the sizes vary from one-sixteenth of an inch to one and a half inches in diameter. The strength of a three-quarter inch rope is stated to be equal to a strain of seven tons, and it will last a much longer time than hemp. One of the bolt ropes has been brought into use by the Safe Deposit building. The manufactory will soon be enlarged; already it employs nine hands, and it is expected that the exportation of entraits East, to be converted into violin strings, will cease, to the advantage of California—San Francisco Call. Rules for Measuring Hay. When in long, square stacks: Multiply the length in yards by the width in yards, and that by half the altitude in yards, and divide the product by 15; the quotient will be the number of tons. When taken out of mows or old stacks: Multiply the length of the load in yards by the width in yards, and that by the height in yards, and divide the product by 20; the quotient will give the number of tons. When in windrows: Multiply the length of the windrow in yards by the width in yards, and that by the height in yards, and divide the product by 25; the quotient will be the number of tons in the windrow. When in mow: Multiply the length in yards by the height in yards, and that by the width in yards, and divide the product by 15; the result will show the number of tons in the mow. Efforts were made to ascertain something about her fate and those on board.

We quote from the St. Helena Star: Mr. Krug thought the experiment of smokes worth trying on a general scale throughout the valley. It had been used with effect in a small way and he thought if practised generally it could protect every vineyard in Napa valley from the possibility of harm. Mr. Heymann coincided, Capt. Sayward recalled the time when he “went down to the sea in ships” that it used to be a common sight in Italy and up the Mediterranean to see smoke rising from the vineyards. Thought they used coal tar there burned in small iron vessels. Tar creates a dense smoke, and could doubtless be had very cheap from the gas factories. Mr. Crane proposed the use of the brush from the vines themselves. Have all ready for lighting, and if, at ten o’clock at night, the thermometer was down to 35, frost might be expected. The brush project was overruled, on the ground of lashing up and burning out too quick. Mr. Lowelling thought a better thing was to saturate bundles of straw in the coal tar. Mr. Krug translated an account from a German paper as to the salutary effects of igniting a large number of fires on a cold night. H. C. Bennett, the defaulting Pension Agent, who was recently tried and convicted in the United State Circuit Court, and sentenced to pay $5000 fine, or in default to undergo imprisonment until it was paid, but not exceeding two years, was released yesterday from the San Jose jail and returned to this city last evening. He has not paid his fines, and was confined only 30 days, the Federal law providing that in case a United States Court imposes a fine merely, the presenter can be imprisoned but a month, and then when the time expires, whether he pays his fine or not, he must be released. Thus the sentence of Bennett was in effect $5000 bail or thirty days imprisonment.—S. F. Chrissick. The London Times pitches the condition of the Heathen Chinbe in California, but his condition in England will not be much better considering the recent disgriefful assault in Oxford street on a servant of the recently-arrived Chinese embassy, named Chang Amaon, by a laboring man named John Donovan. When hailed before a magistrate, John said that he attacked the pig-tailed foreigner for fun adding, by way of explanation, that he dislodged all such heathen pagans. We take the following recipes from the Household Department of the Sacramento Record-Union: Snow Cake—One pound flour, one pound of sugar, half a pound of butter, the whites of sixteen eggs, beaten into a stiff froth; flavor with vanilla or rose.

Baked Indian Pudding—Two quarts of milk, one pint of meal; boil the milk and scald the meal with it; mix gradually and thoroughly; sweaten with about one cup of molasses; add two or three eggs if you like, but the pudding will be good without them.

Bake in a battered dish two or three hours. Eat with butter. John Barry, a boy, confessed in the General Sessions, last week, that he had committed a burglary. A lawyer advised him to plead guilty, as the proof against him was clear, and thus get a lighter sentence than he would be apt to receive if he insisted on a trial. Yesterday an alfidavit was presented to Recorder Hackett saying that the boy was innocent, and that he could prove by his father’s testimony that he was at home at the kine of the burglary. On this ground a new trial was asked. The Recorder said: "I will not grant a trial. There is hardly a case in this court in which there is not the grossest perjury. I have never known parents to refuse to commit perjury when it was requisite in the defence of their children. I could bring five hundred men to swear that this boy was out of the city when the burglary was committed. There is never any lack of perjurers when they are wanted."—New York Sua. Ten thousand newly invented horse hammocks have just been placed in store in the transport department of the Royal Dockyard at Woolwich, England. In the transport and transport of horses in war time a mortality of 17 to 20 per cent has hitherto occurred by the animals injuring their heads and getting off their feet during the rolling of the ship. When once a horse gets down under those circumstances, he cannot rise again without aid, and often struggles to death in the rain endeavor to recover his feet. The English hammock consists of a sling fixed under the horse’s body in his stall. The British Government expects to save $5,000 on every hunched horse. MAGAZETTE. YE 24, 1877. BY "Splurges."

Pacific Coast Appointments. Washington, Feb. 18. Gray, the Survenger of the Port of San Francisco, has written to Sargent that, in order to avail himself of a private business offer, he wishes immediately to resign his office. Sargent and Booth have accordingly notified the President, and recommended Paul Morril, formerly of the Sacramento Union, for appointment as Grey's successor. They also recommenced H.J.

A young man in this city remarked, a few days ago, that he had "been brought up on a bottle," and when some of his friends took him home last night and saw him unbutton his shirt collar to get his boots off, they felt certain that he had been brought up on a bottle and had a gin-mill for a wet nurse. A Queensland diver last year succeeded in recovering a box containing $45,000 in gold from a wreck which was haunted by sharks, attracted there by the corpses of the crew. The Colonial Admiralty Court awarded him about $15,000 as salvage, but the owners of the gold appealed against the award as excessive. The Judicial Committee to which the case was referred dismissed the appeal and the daring diver obtained his money. The Rev. Dr. Swing, of Chicago, established his popularity with women by saying: "When woman thus came into the world as a lovable or admirable creature, she came carrying the balance of power, because morals follow sentiment more than they follow philosophy. When we love wo obey, be it infant, or parent, or schoolmaster, or friend. Love secures obedience at once. The providence, therefore, which sent woman into the world to be esteemed and admired, made her to be a great high priest at the altar of goodness. There is little doubt that had not woman passed into political and social bondage in savage times and places, when the brutal had displaced the human; that had women been free all through historic periods, she would have dragged the world along after her to a moral height far above the condition of the present." The following is an extract of a letter written to a friend by Mr. Carlyle: "A good sort of a man is this Darwin, and well meaning, but with little intellect. Ah! it's a sad, a terrible thing to see a whole generation of men and women, professing to be cultivated, looking around in a purplish fashion,and finding no God in this universe. I suppose it is a reaction from the reign of cant and hollow presence, professing to believe what, in fact, they do not believe. And this is what we have got to. All things from frog spawn; the gospel of dirt the order of the day. The older I grow—and I now stand upon the brink of eternity—the more comes back to me the sentence in the cataclysm which I learned when a child,and the fuller and deeper its meaning becomes: 'What is the chief end of man?' To glorify God,and enjoy Him forever.' No goosal of dirt,tending that men have descended from frogs through monkeys,can over set that aside."

Are you sure that you are an honest man? Which you had better settle right now. Don't waste your time with the shell, but get at the meat of the nut as soon as possible. This reminds us of what Mr. Moody said in Chicago: "There is that man who claims to have repented, but who has not paid his board bill yet, though he could have done it. He is defrauding some poor widow, and yet his talks of being a disciple of Christ." That kind of doctine has the ring of common sense in it. To confess a creed is not a proof of your conversion, but to pay your honest debts is very likely to be. Genuine religion is more apt to do than to tell what it does. If your religion makes you upright and downright, you can afford to be satisfied with it; but if it fails to do this, you may safely conclude that you have bought the wrong article. The Lieu Lands Bill Passed by the House. WASHINGTON, Feb. 16. The Bill which passed the House yesterday for the confirmation of the California School Indemnity titles is the measure recently passed by the Senate. Unanimous consent was required to take it from the Speaker's table, and after McFarland, on behalf of the Public Lands Committee, made that motion, Wigginton and Puge displayed great activity and good management in preventing their respective friends in various parts of the House from interposing on objections, any one of which would have prevented action. Laws and other members of the Committee also cooperated earnestly, and stated that the committee had unanimously agreed to recommend the passage of the House bill, identical in terms. A Serimage. SAN DIEGO, February 15. A rather interesting little now occurred here to stay between ex-Senator James McCoy and D. O. McCarley, Eaq., during which blows were given and a shot or two fired. McCarley received a pretty black eye in the snakes. McCoy got off with a sand or two from McCarley's patrol, doing him no harm so far as known. Governor could decide; and he did, decide exactly as he said he would. The explanation probably is that Grover, having no cipher, wrote the dispatch in plain English and handed it to Patrick. The Times editorial takes a similar view, and says that Grover's explanation is only a juggle with words. Proceedings in Congress. WASHINGTON, Feb. 10. House—After the communication from the Commission, conveying the decision of that body in the Louisiana case was read, the presiding officer asked whether there were any objections to the decision. Gibson presented an objection to the decision on the ground that the Commission had refused to receive evidence which had been offered, and had declined that the votes mentioned in certificates one and three should be counted for Hayes and Wholey, such evidence to the contrary notwithstanding. The paper recites at great length the proceedings of the Commission, but the point of it is the rejection of the evidence. It is signed by most of the Democrats of both Houses. The Attempted Assassination. NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 16. This afternoon Weldon was formally arranged in his room, on a charge of assassinating Packard with a deadly weapon, with intent to kill. He plead guilty. Weldon's physician says that he cannot state what will be the result of his injuries. Phillip Ster, the one-legged German peddler, made a statement that he met Weldon and the one-armed man in a saloon between ten and eleven o'clock yesterday morning. Weldon asked him for a pistol and said, "I have particular business with Governor Packard, damn him; I am a hard-shelled Democrat, and I will fix him." This peddler was taken to the room where Packard was confined and they recognized each other. The Republicans are confident that they can prove Weldon's connection with a band of assassins. The Times reports that it has learned from Weldon that, while coming over here in the car, he conceived the idea of killing Packard and thinking that it would be a popular act. Weldon is very clear in his mind, but does not talk coherently, or connectedly, acting much like a man who has been under the influence of strong drugs. He told a policeman this morning that he was worry for what he had done and that he had been drinking poisoned liquor of some kind before he gave to the State House. He used the name of Hutton, that being the name of his friend when he asked discussion to Packard's office. Weldon's wound is not dangerous, although serious.
