Fate oF Maxturian.—Poor Maxitnilian is gone and the kings and prin-:
ces. of Europe mourn over his death.—
The fiat of justice demanded that royal
blood’ should be shed by democratic
hands and that decree has been executed. The world expresses much horror
that this life has been taken, but we
are inclined to the opinion that much
of the feeling grows out of the fact that
* Maximilian was of a royal house and
not any beliefthat he was unjustly punished. The crowned monarchs of Europe, who believe in the “divine right
of kings,” are of course horrified that
the deeds. of one of. the line should be
punished, but we are confident that no
one who believes in the divine right of
the people can question the justice of
this execution. Let us suppose that a
foreign prince should land with an army upon the shores of the United
States; that he should march upon
Washington and seize our capital;
that he should then issue.a decree declaring himself Emperor and denounc" ing all who oppose his authority as traitors worthy of death. Now suppose
the people should resist and that their
best officers, taken prisoners in war,
should be shot down in accordance with
the decree of the foreign usurper. All
‘would unite in pronouncing such a man
& murderer worthy of death, and if taken, in accordance with the law of tations and that of self preservation he
would be executed. This is exactly
what Maximilian did in Mexico. He
invaded the country without a shadow
of right; levied forced loans; pro¢laimed
himself Emperor, and murdered in cold
blood the Liberal generals taken prisoners by him. For these crimes his
life has been taken and the justness of
the punishment cannot be questioned.
Had he been'some ambitious American,
in whose veins no royal blood flowed,
he would have been denounced as a fillibuster and the world would have pronounced him worthy of death. Why
_ should a man whose only claims are
that he was born of a family which
poor dupes .call royal, be entitled to
immunity from punishment on that account? .The ragged robes of royalty
should not be allowed to shield the life
of the “usurper and murderer. Maxiimilian wis more worthy of death than
the ignorant robber who takes the life
of the.victim forhisgold.
Asa question of policy it may have
been best that the life of the usurper
should be spared, but this we doubt.—
-His fate will bean example to ambicome. The monarchs of Europe have
publics with jealous eye, and the wealth
of these countries have excited their
avarice. No sooner was the United
States-involved in civil war than the
effort to establish a monarchy in Mexico was made.
long remain a warning against all future attempts. Besides,, the Mexican
patriots whose brothers and fellows
fell by his hand,have the satisfaction of
knowing that their deaths are avenged. .
Maximilian still cldimed to be the
rightful monarch of Mexico,and though
driven from his throne by force, the
Liberals had no assurance that his
friends would not again bring trouble
upon the country. Many unworthy
Mexicans had united with him who had
{nothing to liope for from the Liberals,
and they would eagerly have embraced
) another opportunity to make. trouble.
While we may question the policy of
his execution, we do not think any
American will-deny the justness of it.
Nor on 1T.—Speaking of the Convention movement to reorganize the
Union ticket, the Stars and Stripes says
of Placer county: “Not one member. of
our present, or of any former Central
Committee of the Union or Republican
parties ; not one candidate on the Union
county ticket, nor a single recognized
leader or influential member of the
Union party of Placer county, either
favors or countenances the insane and
semi-copperhead movement.”
That paper says further: “The Union press of Nevada county, including
the Transcript, Gazette and Meadow
Lake Sun, have given unequivocal expression to their opposition, while the
leading Union men of that county, Mr.
Sargent, David Belden, E. W. Roberts, Judges McFarland and Niles, and
others of like standing and influence,
discountenance the disorganizing movement and urge undivided support of
the ticket as it is is now constituted.”
You can bet your life on that proposition, and if any Nevada county man
should go into the Sacramento Convention, he will go without a constituency
to represent, unless it be copperhead.
Even the Union men of Nevada county
who dislike some of the nominations
for State offices, believe ‘the proposed
movement to be ill-timed and ill-tempered, and will not be drawn inté any
opposition movement.

TURNED uP Misstnc.—Edward Sherlock, who was stabbed by Anna Bowen, ’
was arrested in bed on two warrants
from Justice Byrne’s Court, says the
National, one on a charge of assault
and battery and the other of malicious
mischief. He offered to giye bail for
able to get out of bed and move around,
Bail was readily obtained and the bonds
teady, except the signing, when officer
Allison went to find the accused, and
found him not. The wounded man had
disappeared. “He was vanished, lost
and gone.” He may have felt warranted
in leaving, after he saw Judge Byrne’s
missives demanding the pleasure of his
company at his éarliest convenience.
Conjecture is afoot to guess where he
went, and whether he was spirited
away or locomoted at his own option.
THE Bee pitched into the State Central Committee for not adopting a stringent test at the primaries, and now it
gives the San Francisco Convention
fits for making a strict test. Somebody
hurt the Bee at the State Convention,
and it is buzzing and attempting to
sting in every direction.
Ar the Paris Exposition there is a
French Hatters’ department, where
they make a hat out of “whole cloth”
in ten minutes. George Smith, of Red
Mountain, says that there used to be a
saloon in his precinct where a brick
could be manufactured and put into a
hat in ten seconds and two motions, So
says the Gold Hill News, _
BriegHaM YounG gave a ball on the
Fourth, to which invitations were extended ‘‘irrespective of party, ‘politics,
creed or condition.”
