Richards of Grass Valley, brother to the deceased, being the complaining witness, Justice Sowden admitted the lady to bail in the sum of $6,000 with her mother and sister-in-law as sureties, but committed Dassonville to jail. Dassonville refuses to make any statement further than to say that the trial will show he was not guilty of attempting,to, blackmail Richards, and that any accusations as to his wife participating in the assault are entirely false. The impression left after a conversation with him is that if he gave Richards the beating he fe+1s that he was fully justified in doing it because the latter had trespassed or attempted to trespass upon his dom estie rights.

The organizations marched to Pine Grove cemetery, and there bedecked with flowers the graves of their honoreddead, Then they returned to the city and disbanded. There had been a good turnout of members of the societies, and as they were all uniformed and fairly drilled bodies the procession 1 ade a fine appearance. The Mexican Veterans and most. of the secret societies sent committees to decorate the graves of their dead, and citizens generally performed a like duty for friends and relatives who had gone before. Although there was an unusual scarcity of flowers this year in gardens about town, the supply being far short of the demand, the cemeteries presented a beautiful appearance with their floral offerings. Most of the streets along the line of mirch were deep with dust, and progress along them was extremely disagreeable for the men in the ranks who were choked, blinded and stained by the clouds of pulverized soil that filled their noses, mouths, eyes and ears, and found its insidious way down 4th stirs our hearts anew with patriot-. wounded soldier.

And Christmas new-born King. Today an interest peculiarly its own with its embodied principles demand our attention: our duty tothe memory of our nation’s dead. We have been called to the Necrop-, olises, ‘ where sleep, in their last long sleep, the heroes whose tramp once shook the land, on which we walk as with determined step they marched to battle or to death for independence and liberty. . Today we have not visited these silent cities to bury our dead soldiers—that has been done by other ‘hands—but to. ‘bring our choicest flowers rare, and strew them on each little mound,’ as we trod, lightly trod, remembering that where we were and where we stood was hallowed ground, and let our hearts throb above the sacred spots of pulseless sleep with gratitudé anew, and as we call to mind the noble acts of sacrifice in which our soldiers gave their lives to baptize the land we love with . brave and noble” blood. Soldiers! Did I speak the word soldiers? Word of mighty significance! Term of valor, chivalry, noble, daring, fearless courage, protection, strength. To be a good and true soldier is no ignoble thing. ’Tig nosmall achievement in this short and fleeting life of ours. To stand amid a storm of leaden drops that fall between thunder peals of cannon and lightning flash of musketry for the protection of innocence, altars, tires, liberty, is a great and ~ noble thing. ket him think carefully before he Speaks who would ‘say, .it is not se. This did those heroic ones whose graves today we deck with fragrance and with beauty—emblems of our tender regard. Soldiers! The sound of that one word thrills me through and through. From the first dawn of remembered intelligence, and the first sounds of prattling tongue, it has been thus. I love to speak that word. I imagine I can feel as must have felt that ancient Grecian who recounted his emotions the night the Romans landed on his shore and he saw the breast of her that had nourished him, trampled beneath the fout of the charging war-horse, and beheld the bleeding, mangled body of his father thrown amid the burning timbers of his dwelling. Methinks I can see the flashing fire of his eye as telling his comrades how one night his grardsire, an old man, was telling of Marathaon, and how in ‘ancient times a little band of Spartans in the defile of a mountain had withstood a whole ariny, he said: ‘I did not know then what war was, but my cheeks burned—I knew not why. I clasped the knees of that venerable man till my motker, parting the hair from off my forehead, bade me go-to rest and their necks and up their legs. Those streets should have been sprinkled on the morning of the parade, and the city authorities would.not have been accused of extravagance or abnormally developed regard for public comfort had they done it. THE EVENING EXERCISES, The Theater was the scene of alarge gathering. of people in the evening. The floral and other decorations of the stage and auditorium were very beautiful, the Ladies of the Grand Army and the Native Daughters of Laurel Parlor having displayed their taste in the urrangement thereof. Post Commandant Walling presided. He made some excellent opening remarks. Rev. Wm. Angwin of the-Methodist Church was Chaplain. The music consisted of selections by Mountain Division Band and some well-rendered choruses under the direction of Prof. Muller, Owing to the illness of Mrs, Chapman, she: was unable to appear, and Captain Little recited a poem in her stead. The address by Rev. R. H. Sink of Grass Valley was an admirable effort and delivered with fine effect. Following is quite a fuli synopsis of it, reported for the Transcript: THE ADDREBS, Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: Tonight I come not here to amuse or to elicit cheers. These are but transient meteors on the midnight sky of life, brilliant for an instant, then gone in darkness, making the gloom more gloomy by the quick contrast, Neither am I here to recount merely the deeds of brave men who on their warships or bloody field, beneath the flag_we love, fought for the sustainance of our independence and the freedom of shackled limbs. Let those who would know. these things turn and read the pages ofthe shelfworn volumes in their homes. Another duty presses upon me, andsit is with feelings of profound gratitude I address myself to its discharge. It is, our duties of the present day to the memory of heroes of our wars. Ethical prineiples are our duties. Principles that have been projected, struggled for, lost or sustained from the most instructive and useful part of the histories of our world. Ea-h of our memorial days hasan interest peculiar to itself because of the principles it inculcates or should inculcate. The New Year bursts upon us with new lie, fresh yigor, inspiring and -thrilling us with newimpulses for a fresh existence. The next month brings us to the day when each lover of this country bows with revere nce over the cradle of the infant Washington, ‘first in war, first in ‘peace and first in the hearts of .his countrymen,’’ The first of May brings the blooming Queen garlanded with flowers, with her soft hands_te break the icy arms of winter that have locked the world in cold embrace, and strew the DeHaven’s Dyspepsia Destroyer will cure sick headache, / land with emblems of love. July the think no more of ‘the old tales and ‘cruel wars.’”” Among the words that ‘endear to me my calling, my life’s ser. vice, I am glad to find the title—soldier. oe indeed must be that heart which cannot beat; cold that heart that cannot fire with phraseless gratitude for the tender remembrance, as to perpetuate the memory of the fallen heroes of our Union. We garland the many graves in the silent cities of our land, and set the flag of the country. they loved and bought with valiant blood above their sleeping dust. We who live to-day owe the memory of those sleeping soldiers much. You. and I aré living: in the-consequeices of their noble, heroic, selfsacrificing acts. God forbid I should fai; to speak those words that may help to perpetuate their memory to the end of time, and instil in the mind of coming generations the inspiring thought : “The memory of him who falls ina just and righteous cause is blessed.’’ I tremble to think what might be the fate for us and otuers, had not those brave heroes fotight that oppression should be driven from our land; that the clanking chains should be breken from shackled, patient, helpless feet; that happy families be not separated, and no more sold like fatted beasts, as the sound of the hammer fell upon the ‘auction block, sending a wave of terror to tender hearts, ringing in anxious ears the knell of doom; had not stout hearts broken the clasp of love-locked arms about their neck and pushed back with firm but loving hand the clinging form of weeping wife, child or other loved one, and left, with the taste of briny tears of grief still fresh upon affection’s lip, the home of ienderést association and most sacred scenes to march at tune of fife and drum to the field of sanguine courage, there to fight or die for the heritage you and I possess. The duty of the hour is ‘not a mere recital of these deeds of valor, but to fix for permanent abode in your hearts a deep and true gratitude for the acts of those brave hands that counted not the cost of life too much of an offering to wrest from beneath the-paw of leonine arrogance the downtrodden strugglers, and break the teeth of savage slavery piercing bleeding hearts. “The duty of the hour.is to fix a consciousness of a debt—of deep gratitude in the heart for priceless liberty. And; let no one think home was not as dear to them as us. They were one with us, Their desires were like ours; their attachments as strong, their love as deep.

Living in the consequences of their noble deeds it is . ours to perpetuate and make intense these consequences and hand to posterity unsullied and unviolated the liberty, through their heroic acts, our heritage. Liberty! But what is liberty? Is. it. unrestrained liberty for all? Is it unlimited freedom for any one? Isit the unrestrained sentiments of any one heart? Assuredly not; yet ed to give the word. There is, there can be no true liberty without straint, however paradoxical it may reseem. Unlimited individual liberty is oppression and tyranny; it is anarchy and Esauisur; every man’s hand against every other man’s, and every other’s hand against him. True liberty is the unrestrained freedom of the best and the subjugation of everything that tends not to this glorious end. It would be well for us did we ruminate this thought until it becomes part of our very life. Let me repeat it. True liberty is the unrestrained freedom of the best and the subjugation of everything that: tends not to this glorious end. It is alone such a liberty that can preserve the blood-bought commonwealth. You and I may differ as to what is best at times. Then we should remember that so long as there are honest differences, there should be a proper restriction upon our acts in such regard, till determination has been made, lest. we be mistaken and wrong another. Liberty is our usufruct, not absolute possession. Again, there should be incorporated in Our ideas of liberty the Apostolic injunction, ‘None of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself;’*and’again, ‘“‘We are members one of another.’”’ For this truth our soldiers fought, for this they died. Letit be understood to all who land upon our shores that righteous laws must be obeyed, and unholy acts will be punished. Let no idea get to foreign lands that this country is the place for anarchy, riot, debauchery, crime; -where we are lapsing into barbarism, but where we are climbing surely to noblest freedom. Let the act of Benedict Arnold and such as he be held up for scorn till a sentiment shall be created that shall quake the heart with fear that dare entertain a thought of treason to the noblest and the best. Our liberty cost too dear to be given into the hands of any evily disposed—too dear to be lost in the survival of any custom or act that will degrade. Paralyzed be the tongue that dare utter a thought which, put in action, would tear the eye of true; liberty from its socket or her arm from effective usefulness and thus dishonor the men we today remember. Patriotism is manifested in other deeds than those of sanguine war. heart-throbs take the place of tramping feet as we zealously guard the gift of departed men; ‘Then, with a slight change, can we sing the immortal lines of Key, written in the excitement of the moment he saw the stars and stripes still floating in the breeze above the smoke at Baltimore; ‘‘Ah, the star-spangled banner! Forever she’ll wave. O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.” pent e Siete has Nee The Tidings Did Kt. Mr. Bourne, in his letter published in another column, says he had contemplated getting hold of and opening other mines in Grass Valley district, but that an item in the Tidings of last week Tuesday has caused him to abandon the idea of extending his operations. This only goes to show the influence for evil exerted by that masterly sheet. It was born under unfortunate circumstances and it has been unfortunate ever since. It always manages to get the wrong foot in the right place. It isa sort of Calamity Jane in journalism. ce eesti The Children's Query. ‘Memorial Day is-a-national holiday. Throughout the Union business was generally suspended for at least'a portion of the day and public offices were closed.

I wish them all success. Very sincerely yours, W. B. Bourn. In substance, the gentleman was thinking about increasing-the extent of his operations, but was somewhat staggered when he figured up the cost of doing so; and he was knocked clear out when he read the anti-monopoly, anti-bulldosing article in the Tidings. Undoubtedly he had been counting largely in his original planning on the additional trade he would receive at his store and meat market by employing an additicnal number of men; but learning that public -sentiment at Grass Valley is practically unanimous against one man or set of men running the town, he wisely concluded to ‘‘let well enough alone.” The significant part of his letter is this: Our employes in trading with us are helping us out. Isit not natural they should? I think we have endeavored tohelp them, And itis also natural that I-should feel more kindly towards men who are disposed to help me—but that their.positions depend upon their trade is utterly false. Thus he virtually says he is entitled to the trade of the men he employs. This, according to bis doctrine, Clinch & Co. expect and have a right-to demand, { + 7O@e-High Prices Must Go. : Hyman .

Dassonville refuses to make any statement further than to say that the trial will show he was not guilty of attempting,to, blackmail Richards, and that any accusations as to his wife participating in the assault are entirely false.

The organizations marched to Pine Grove cemetery, and there bedecked with flowers the graves of their honoreddead, Then they returned to the city and disbanded. There had been a good turnout of members of the societies, and as they were all uniformed and fairly drilled bodies the procession 1 ade a fine appearance. The Mexican Veterans and most. of the secret societies sent committees to decorate the graves of their dead, and citizens generally performed a like duty for friends and relatives who had gone before. Although there was an unusual scarcity of flowers this year in gardens about town, the supply being far short of the demand, the cemeteries presented a beautiful appearance with their floral offerings.

We have been called to the Necrop-, olises, ‘ where sleep, in their last long sleep, the heroes whose tramp once shook the land, on which we walk as with determined step they marched to battle or to death for independence and liberty. . Today we have not visited these silent cities to bury our dead soldiers—that has been done by other ‘hands—but to. ‘bring our choicest flowers rare, and strew them on each little mound,’ as we trod, lightly trod, remembering that where we were and where we stood was hallowed ground, and let our hearts throb above the sacred spots of pulseless sleep with gratitudé anew, and as we call to mind the noble acts of sacrifice in which our soldiers gave their lives to baptize the land we love with . brave and noble” blood. Soldiers! Did I speak the word soldiers? Word of mighty significance! Term of valor, chivalry, noble, daring, fearless courage, protection, strength. To be a good and true soldier is no ignoble thing. ’Tig nosmall achievement in this short and fleeting life of ours. To stand amid a storm of leaden drops that fall between thunder peals of cannon and lightning flash of musketry for the protection of innocence, altars, tires, liberty, is a great and ~ noble thing. ket him think carefully before he Speaks who would ‘say, .it is not se. This did those heroic ones whose graves today we deck with fragrance and with beauty—emblems of our tender regard. Soldiers! The sound of that one word thrills me through and through. From the first dawn of remembered intelligence, and the first sounds of prattling tongue, it has been thus. I love to speak that word. I imagine I can feel as must have felt that ancient Grecian who recounted his emotions the night the Romans landed on his shore and he saw the breast of her that had nourished him, trampled beneath the fout of the charging war-horse, and beheld the bleeding, mangled body of his father thrown amid the burning timbers of his dwelling. Methinks I can see the flashing fire of his eye as telling his comrades how one night his grardsire, an old man, was telling of Marathaon, and how in ‘ancient times a little band of Spartans in the defile of a mountain had withstood a whole ariny, he said: ‘I did not know then what war was, but my cheeks burned—I knew not why. I clasped the knees of that venerable man till my motker, parting the hair from off my forehead, bade me go-to rest and their necks and up their legs. Those streets should have been sprinkled on the morning of the parade, and the city authorities would.not have been accused of extravagance or abnormally developed regard for public comfort had they done it. THE EVENING EXERCISES, The Theater was the scene of alarge gathering. of people in the evening. The floral and other decorations of the stage and auditorium were very beautiful, the Ladies of the Grand Army and the Native Daughters of Laurel Parlor having displayed their taste in the urrangement thereof. Post Commandant Walling presided. He made some excellent opening remarks. Rev. Wm. Angwin of the-Methodist Church was Chaplain. The music consisted of selections by Mountain Division Band and some well-rendered choruses under the direction of Prof. Muller, Owing to the illness of Mrs, Chapman, she: was unable to appear, and Captain Little recited a poem in her stead. The address by Rev. R. H. Sink of Grass Valley was an admirable effort and delivered with fine effect. Following is quite a fuli synopsis of it, reported for the Transcript: THE ADDREBS, Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: Tonight I come not here to amuse or to elicit cheers. These are but transient meteors on the midnight sky of life, brilliant for an instant, then gone in darkness, making the gloom more gloomy by the quick contrast, Neither am I here to recount merely the deeds of brave men who on their warships or bloody field, beneath the flag_we love, fought for the sustainance of our independence and the freedom of shackled limbs. Let those who would know. these things turn and read the pages ofthe shelfworn volumes in their homes. Another duty presses upon me, andsit is with feelings of profound gratitude I address myself to its discharge. It is, our duties of the present day to the memory of heroes of our wars. Ethical prineiples are our duties. Principles that have been projected, struggled for, lost or sustained from the most instructive and useful part of the histories of our world. Ea-h of our memorial days hasan interest peculiar to itself because of the principles it inculcates or should inculcate. The New Year bursts upon us with new lie, fresh yigor, inspiring and -thrilling us with newimpulses for a fresh existence. The next month brings us to the day when each lover of this country bows with revere nce over the cradle of the infant Washington, ‘first in war, first in ‘peace and first in the hearts of .his countrymen,’’ The first of May brings the blooming Queen garlanded with flowers, with her soft hands_te break the icy arms of winter that have locked the world in cold embrace, and strew the DeHaven’s Dyspepsia Destroyer will cure sick headache, / land with emblems of love. July the think no more of ‘the old tales and ‘cruel wars.’”” Among the words that ‘endear to me my calling, my life’s ser. vice, I am glad to find the title—soldier. oe indeed must be that heart which cannot beat; cold that heart that cannot fire with phraseless gratitude for the tender remembrance, as to perpetuate the memory of the fallen heroes of our Union. We garland the many graves in the silent cities of our land, and set the flag of the country. they loved and bought with valiant blood above their sleeping dust. We who live to-day owe the memory of those sleeping soldiers much. You. and I aré living: in the-consequeices of their noble, heroic, selfsacrificing acts. God forbid I should fai; to speak those words that may help to perpetuate their memory to the end of time, and instil in the mind of coming generations the inspiring thought : “The memory of him who falls ina just and righteous cause is blessed.’’ I tremble to think what might be the fate for us and otuers, had not those brave heroes fotight that oppression should be driven from our land; that the clanking chains should be breken from shackled, patient, helpless feet; that happy families be not separated, and no more sold like fatted beasts, as the sound of the hammer fell upon the ‘auction block, sending a wave of terror to tender hearts, ringing in anxious ears the knell of doom; had not stout hearts broken the clasp of love-locked arms about their neck and pushed back with firm but loving hand the clinging form of weeping wife, child or other loved one, and left, with the taste of briny tears of grief still fresh upon affection’s lip, the home of ienderést association and most sacred scenes to march at tune of fife and drum to the field of sanguine courage, there to fight or die for the heritage you and I possess. The duty of the hour is ‘not a mere recital of these deeds of valor, but to fix for permanent abode in your hearts a deep and true gratitude for the acts of those brave hands that counted not the cost of life too much of an offering to wrest from beneath the-paw of leonine arrogance the downtrodden strugglers, and break the teeth of savage slavery piercing bleeding hearts. “The duty of the hour.is to fix a consciousness of a debt—of deep gratitude in the heart for priceless liberty. And; let no one think home was not as dear to them as us. They were one with us, Their desires were like ours; their attachments as strong, their love as deep.

Living in the consequences of their noble deeds it is . ours to perpetuate and make intense these consequences and hand to posterity unsullied and unviolated the liberty, through their heroic acts, our heritage. Liberty! But what is liberty? Is. it. unrestrained liberty for all? Is it unlimited freedom for any one? Isit the unrestrained sentiments of any one heart? Assuredly not; yet ed to give the word. There is, there can be no true liberty without straint, however paradoxical it may reseem. Unlimited individual liberty is oppression and tyranny; it is anarchy and Esauisur; every man’s hand against every other man’s, and every other’s hand against him. True liberty is the unrestrained freedom of the best and the subjugation of everything that tends not to this glorious end. It would be well for us did we ruminate this thought until it becomes part of our very life. Let me repeat it. True liberty is the unrestrained freedom of the best and the subjugation of everything that: tends not to this glorious end. It is alone such a liberty that can preserve the blood-bought commonwealth. You and I may differ as to what is best at times. Then we should remember that so long as there are honest differences, there should be a proper restriction upon our acts in such regard, till determination has been made, lest. we be mistaken and wrong another. Liberty is our usufruct, not absolute possession. Again, there should be incorporated in Our ideas of liberty the Apostolic injunction, ‘None of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself;’*and’again, ‘“‘We are members one of another.’”’ For this truth our soldiers fought, for this they died. Letit be understood to all who land upon our shores that righteous laws must be obeyed, and unholy acts will be punished. Let no idea get to foreign lands that this country is the place for anarchy, riot, debauchery, crime; -where we are lapsing into barbarism, but where we are climbing surely to noblest freedom. Let the act of Benedict Arnold and such as he be held up for scorn till a sentiment shall be created that shall quake the heart with fear that dare entertain a thought of treason to the noblest and the best. Our liberty cost too dear to be given into the hands of any evily disposed—too dear to be lost in the survival of any custom or act that will degrade. Paralyzed be the tongue that dare utter a thought which, put in action, would tear the eye of true; liberty from its socket or her arm from effective usefulness and thus dishonor the men we today remember. Patriotism is manifested in other deeds than those of sanguine war. heart-throbs take the place of tramping feet as we zealously guard the gift of departed men; ‘Then, with a slight change, can we sing the immortal lines of Key, written in the excitement of the moment he saw the stars and stripes still floating in the breeze above the smoke at Baltimore; ‘‘Ah, the star-spangled banner! Forever she’ll wave. O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.” pent e Siete has Nee The Tidings Did Kt. Mr. Bourne, in his letter published in another column, says he had contemplated getting hold of and opening other mines in Grass Valley district, but that an item in the Tidings of last week Tuesday has caused him to abandon the idea of extending his operations. This only goes to show the influence for evil exerted by that masterly sheet. It was born under unfortunate circumstances and it has been unfortunate ever since. It always manages to get the wrong foot in the right place. It isa sort of Calamity Jane in journalism. ce eesti The Children's Query. ‘Memorial Day is-a-national holiday.

Is it not natural.-they should? for I think we have endeavored to help them. And it is also natural that [ should feel more kindly towards men who are disposed to help me—but that their positions bas upon their trade is utterly false.

I wish them all success. Very sincerely yours, W. B. Bourn. In substance, the gentleman was thinking about increasing-the extent of his operations, but was somewhat staggered when he figured up the cost of doing so; and he was knocked clear out when he read the anti-monopoly, anti-bulldosing article in the Tidings. Undoubtedly he had been counting largely in his original planning on the additional trade he would receive at his store and meat market by employing an additicnal number of men; but learning that public -sentiment at Grass Valley is practically unanimous against one man or set of men running the town, he wisely concluded to ‘‘let well enough alone.” The significant part of his letter is this: Our employes in trading with us are helping us out. Isit not natural they should? I think we have endeavored tohelp them, And itis also natural that I-should feel more kindly towards men who are disposed to help me—but that their.positions depend upon their trade is utterly false. Thus he virtually says he is entitled to the trade of the men he employs. This, according to bis doctrine, Clinch & Co. expect and have a right-to demand, { + 7O@e-High Prices Must Go. : Hyman .
