SENATOR Nyx: —The campaign has
‘opened in Nevada, ‘and “they copperheads
shaving been vitalized by the: infusion of a
little Johnsonism, have a full ticket in the .
field: . The election takes place:on the 6th
of November and. will result ,in the triumph. of the entire State Union ticket,
the county ticket may Be defeated by dis@entions in Story. The contest now is for
the Senatorship, and Governor Nye will
undoubtedly bereturned. Little DeLong, .
taking advantage of. the illness of Nye,
and knowing that the only possible way of
defeating the man who towered above-him
in ability and loyalty, as Mount Shasta
above the foothills, would be to destroyhis. réputation; De Long attempted the
work, anda cloud rested upon the Senator’s reptation, for the greatest villain
top destroy the noblest structure.
Little ng, the Yuba county joker, was
“geconded by the copperhead organs of Nevada and California. They all knew of
Nye’s ability and influence in the Senate,
and desired to defeat him. The vindication of Nye has been published and it is
fujl and complete. The shafts intended
for his destruction have returned upon his
enemy, and DeLong has ptoved true to
his California reputation. Before the numerous documents and overwhelming tes‘timony cited by Nye, his baseless charges
are swept away like Autumn leaves before
. he tornado, DeLong charged that ‘Nye
“pocketed $80,000 while Indian Agent of
the Territory. Nye states that only $35,000 was appropriated during his administration, and that the greater part of this
was used in the purchase of goods in New
York and. the payment of freight. Every dollar expended -is accounted for and
a fall settlement is shown with the Governmenit, ‘The charges inrelation to Nye’s
receiving two and a half feet. of ground
from Harrold for securing his release, are
fully disproved. It is sliown that. the deed
in question: was made some months beforé
Harrold’s arrest. The following additional refutation is given. We quote from the
review of the defense by the Enterprise ;
“Nye shows by a statement from Hon. J.
» Neely Johnson that. he-was employed by
“the partners of Harrold to proceed to San
Francisco, for the. purpose of purchasing
Harrold’s interest, ina certain mine for
them ; that he effected the parchase, and
for, that, and previons; services the two
and a half feet of ground were conveyed to .
him. He knew nothing of the conveys .
. @féé until the’ deed was placed in his
hands. Some time after, Harrold comMenced suit for the recovery of the ground,
alleging that no consideration Was exama bone Ima ortagain be called
ae ine Vy ie the people to desuch unjust accuct aaa wever, one cause for
Rrionin be laren business.
ye AT hig charges, Mr. DeLong has
‘not accused me of octupying & doubtful
political position, nor have I been a
in my defense to procure certificates from
Democrats to prove that I was a Union
man.’
Those fantiliar with DeLong’s course in
this State and. Nevada -willsee. the-force
of these remarks. .
He Hep, wis Grur—E. G. Hall, of
Hornitos killed a Chinaman recently,
says the Mariposa Gazette, under very
peculiar circumstances, He heard a noise
inhis hen house and‘-got up and went
there when he met a Chinaman in the
very act of stealing chickens. . In-attempting to seize tlie felow Hall accidentally
got one hand in the Chinaman’s mouth.
With the other he seized hold of his cue,
and twisted it around his neck and hung
on. . The severe biting of his hand caused
Hall to faint. Mrs. Hall, thinking her
husband was gone longer than was necessary, and fearing that something had happened, went to the chicken house, where
she found Hall and the Chinaman on the
ground, The former had fainted and the
latter was choked to death, It required’
considerable of an effort to pry open the
dead Chitiatian’s mouth to relieve Hall’s
hand. This was one of the strangest
deadly encounters we ever heard of.

How ANDY JOHNSON REWARDS SonpT&RS.—In Burlington, Iowa, he has given
the post-office to Thomas French, a very
moderate Republican, over Capt, Halliday
who was wounded and disabled in the
army on the recommendation of Judge
Wilson the Representative from the Burlington District. In Fairfield, Iowa, he
gives the post-office to J. D. Jones a
rampant Copperhead during the war,
instead of Mrs. McAllister the widow ofa
gallant soldier who was recommended by
Mr. Wilson and others.
THe First TELEGRAPH MeEssaar.—
The first public message ever sent by
électric telegraph went from Baltimore to
Washington, dated the 14th June, 1844,
addressed to Silas Wright, of New York,
announcing’ the nomination by the demo‘cratic convention then im session in the
‘former city,of Mr. Polk for the Presidency.
A,.member of Congress was defeated in
Indiana for re-election: im ¢onsequence of
his vote sustaining’ an ‘appropriation of
twenty-five, thousand dollars to aid the
enterprise, on the ground that “a man
who. could be made to believe in such a
humbug was too big a fool to go to’ Congress.”
THe Sap FaLLor a Pusiic MAn.—A
St. Louis re correspondent harates
the following lamentable story: Coming-4
down Chésnut street, St, Louis,one day
last week, I was strnck by the appearance
of an old man past 60, who wore a threadbare coat, shiny with constant’ wear, and
in the deed. As an excuse for the . . whose hat was bruised and seedy. His
@uit, Harrold said he was ‘hard up,” and
had commenced proceedings when he was’
‘drunk, Mr, Nye did not regard his small
“Yaterest as being of much value, the entire
hiine being mortgaged at the rate of about
$2,000 per foot, amd offered to re-convey
to Harrold tlie two-and a half feet; but .
Harrold refusedto accept more than one
foot, and a deed was accordingly made to
him for thatamownt. Mr. Nye denies that
Harrold advanced him money in Sain Fran¢isco or presented him with a watch. He
-ogays Hatrold exchanged watches with him
‘at one time; dnd got rather the best of
him by the friendly transaction. Mr, Nye
ye _establishes the utter falsity of the
atge by producing a letter from Senator
Stewart, admitting that he (Stewart) was
instrumental in effecting the release of
Harrold, and that Nye was not) in the
‘eountry at the time!” The charge of
“eorraption in the use of the purdoning
power and of receiving pay for signing the
bill f for the purchase of the State Prison
grounds, are as fully disproved as the one
ip regard toHarrold., The “arrangement”
_ charged, by DeLong as having been made
‘between Stewart and Nye is disproved by
. wlgtter from the former. His witnesses
“eres ‘well known in Nevada and California,
“and the testimony is overwhelming. «In
-¥onclusion, ‘Nye makes the following home

head was bent towards the earth, and his
walk was a tottering shuffle, the effect of
whisky and old age, He reeled from one
side of the pavement to the other, and at
last brought up against a lamp-post on the
corner, when a young-looking loafer com‘ing along saluted him with, “Holloa, Jim!
Come and take a drink.” The old man’s
eye brightened, and, arm-in-arm, he sauntered along to the nearest groggery with
his companion. Five years ago that old
man was James Green, United States Sen
ator from Missouri, and in the days of the
Kansas and Lecompton matters he was
next to Stephen A. Douglas, the ablest' debater in Congress. But the war broke
out, Mr. Green was sent, to the. rebel Congress, soon lost his property, his position
and his character, and now he isa poor
drunkard, and earns barely a nore of a
living as a calaboose #hyster.

ROMANCE OF THE BATTLE, Ruin: —A
Florence journal says that after the battle
of Custozza a surgeon of the Italian arniy
discovered among the wounded a young
edrporal of bersaglieri still alive, notwithstanding three severe injuries in the neck,
left arm and right leg. "When about to
dress thesewounds the surgeon perceived
that the sufferer was a young woman,who
then declared her name to be Hermina’
. Hanelli, and her age twenty,,, Just, before
the opening ‘ofthe campaign, her brother,
‘who was a bersaglieri, had fallen ill, and . .
returned home to his. family until his recovery. The. sister, whose parents had
previously had some difficulty in preventing her from joining the Garibaldians, took
advantage of that circumstance, and, eutting short her hair, dressed herself in her
brother’s uniform. and joined his regiment,
her resemblance to him ennabling her to
pass unnoticed. Four heurs later her regiment was engaged, and she was wounded
on the field of battle. After the discovery of her sex by the surgeon, she was
taken to Florenee where she died a few
days after. bai
Tuk fortunate Spaniards who become
money. They receive a salary of $50,000,
havea state.carriage furnished them at
. the public expense, three palaces to live in,
and their authority is almost unlimited.—
Of course there are enormous pickings undersuch a system, and Governor Dulce,
who has recently returned to Spain, is reported to have made a million of dollars.
Concha, a former Governor, carried away
$3,000,000, whilst Serrano, who was almost
a bankrept, but.a favorite of the Queen,
was appointed Captain General of Cuba,
for the sole purpose of recuperating his
fortune.
Louris NaPo.Eon is building a $5,000000 opera house in Paris, which will rival,
in extent ard grandeur the. Coliseum. at
Rome. ‘It will cost about $5,000,000, and
will be constructed entirely of stone, brick.
and metal. Nothing combustible will enter into its composition. It will cover, sevenanda half acres and be two hundred
feet in external height. The auditorium,
three thousand persons. Every. box will
have its separate saloon attached, fitted up
like drawing-ooms, end @ carriage way

will be entirely unapproachable in .finishexisting.
