Eddy got into it for the purpose of descending, and another man was in the act of doing so, when the cable parted and precipitated the deceased down the shaft to the five handred foot -level, where he was found, an unrecognizable mass of flesh and bones. One leg was found at the bottom of the shaft on the 800 foot level. From the same source we obtain the following: John Haffock, who lives some five miles below Colfax, started home last Friday evening. Waren about one mile from that town he was thrown from his horse and had his left leg broken just above t ankle, and lay in the road all night in the storm. He was found yesterday morning, about 8 o'clock, by a butcher, and taken to Colfax, where he now lies in a critical condition, Bars the last issue of the.

The appearance jof Mr. Field in a capacity which everyone thought he understood, was regarded as an evidence of ingratitude on the part of a candidate who needed all the friends he had, and the wounded vanity of self-respect of some really ablemen, produced a lukewarmness that has had its share inthe disastrous result.
