The trestle-work is very high insome places, and it must have seemed hazardous to one who,hud never undertaken it, He had a little liquor aboard at thetime. He had nearly reached the middle when the train was heard a-short distance bebind. he had neither time to come. backward-nor forward, and te—lie along the rail wa® exceedingly dangerous. Dismay overcame some who saw his dangerous situation, but he remained perfectly quiet untilthe train had nearly reached him, when unexpected to all he stooped down held on to and hung there by his hands, whilethe train came booming along, and passed over him.— When his partnersaw the outcome he was greatly elated, and yelled that the d——d fool dangling in the air had ought to drop, Enugles regained his feet when the train passed over, aud crossed in safety to the other side, ' action, and one which very few would wish to attempt. ——s. : Tweep’s Retorn.—A Washington ‘*The appropriation made at the last session of Congress for bringing home from foreign couniries persons charged with, crimes, and expenses _ineidental thereto, was ouly $5000; but it will be unnecessary to expend any of this sum to bring Tweed and Haunt from ‘Spain, as the -United Statés steamer Franklin bad been ordered home from the European squadron just previous to_their arrest, and not having sailed when tbe information of the arrest was received by the State Department, ahe was ordered to proceed to Vigo and take them on board, by the.Acting Secretary of the Navy, at the request of the Secretary of State. Had no Government vessel been under orders to return to the United States, it would have keen necessary to send officers for Tweed and his.companion, and some expense, as wellas delay, would . . have been incurred in having them wane home. > bE Going to Fill Up. We understand that the Central Pacific Railroad’ Company has about concluded to make a fill at Long Ravine, where their bridge crosses the same, about one mile this side of Colfax. ‘The Nevada County Narrow Gauge Railroad crosses under that Long Ravine bridge, and if the Céntral Company makes a fill of the ravine instead of constructing an iron bridge; the Narrow Gauge Company will have to build an extensive archway. The Central is compelled by law to construct an iron bridge or to make a fillat the place mentioned.—G@, V.Union, Joun Goons, of Virginia, was awarded a seat in this Congress by a strict Democratic vote. In the course of the debate the friendship of Goode td the Union was avouched. . Goode is renominated. His Repulican opponent is 8. B. Segar, -who was loyal to the Union. Of his opponent Goode, in a speech just delivered, suid: ‘‘Can you cast your vote for the man who satin Congress in 1861, and voted men and. money to sid in preserving the Union?” _ Tus President of France is wel paid, for in addition to several palaces rent free, and a large retinue of servants, he receives a Salary of $126,000 per annum. ‘and orignal assemblage. ‘there under such a disguise. ing-along the railroad. near Secret . across the footpath, he concluded to-+ ‘too openly for success this time. It was an extraordinary . _ Phe Bogus Boys in Blue. Judging from the reports which ‘havereached us the bogus Convention . of Boys in Blué held at Indianapolis yesterday must have been a: quaint If half the stories are true a more miscellaneous collection of rowdies ragmuffins was never got together. Thefe Were exConfederates, Baltimore plug-uglies Chicago .roughs, Kentucky swashbucklers, and in fact an assortment of the dungerous classes difficult to match, And how they must. have stared and grinned to find themselves Fancy the ruffians who resisted the draft,and those who fired upon the Union . troops in Baltimore, ‘meeting togethLer as Boys in Blue, and calling them=} selves soldiers: apd sailors. They jan those of his opponebt, Ose man is ready to believe Tilton’s explariation — a clergyman, who tells this story: ‘I was journeying with a younger brother of my flock, with whom I occupied. a section in a sleeping ear. -In the night I quit my couch to refresh myself at the gooler. Having done so, I returned to what I conceived tobe my section, and, observing that my com—had moved over to the outside of tne berth, I shook bim by the shoulder with gentle force, rem: arking, , ip the words of a secular song, Bs ommy make room for your uncle.’ To my ineffable surprise and horror, the ened was one of the opposite sex. She shrieked aloud and in anotber second I had bounded into my own berth, and was appsrenuly ‘snoring the Snore of the just.” : = said a candidate speaking to a crowd of the respective chances of bimself ‘7 can REPUBLICAN panion—as I took the sleeper to be . sleeper-wbom I had so rudely awak. f MEETINGS! -Procue Record: **Never . sated g who murdered poor Colonel O° Brien in New York, ‘and sacked and burned the Colored Orphan Asylum, and mobbed negro women and children, . and were all called ‘‘my dear fellow “citizens” by loyal Guvernor Seymour. And how queer it must have felt to be marchitg to the martial airs which are familiar to the genuine ._Boys in Blue—they, who never kept time before to any . more respectable tune than the ‘Rogues, March.”’ It seems that they were not sent to Indianapolis for mere amusement, either. They are to remain there until the election. The roughs who went from Chicago all had free passes, marked ‘‘Good for ten days,’’ and doubtless procured with a portion of one of Uncle Samuel’s ‘bar’ls of money.” will have a good timé in the stationhouses and jails of Indianapolis, and that when the.time comes for them to go home they will return sudder, if not wiser, men. The game hasbeen played a little It was a bold move, and under other circumstances might perhaps have succeeded; but the real Boys in Blue muster pretty strong in Indian just at present, and from all the i:dications they are not disposed to put up with any nonsense,—Record-Union: Gov. TrpEen’s War record seems to suit then! exactly down . South, In urging him upon the Democrats there, the Petersburg Jndewand Appeal tells the following anecdote: “In 1864, just after the battle of the Wilderness, a party of gentlemen were assembled in a room at Willard’s and in the course of an animated conversation one of them used the following language: ‘Gentlemen, the mistake we made was. that we did not turn McClellan with his fine army on Washington and clean out the wholething,’ meaning the Administration of Mr. Lincoln, He who gave utterance to this patriotic remark was Samuel J; ‘filden, for which in fature ages he will ever be held in respect and veneration by the patriots of the couutry.”’ Wuart has the. Democratic House of Representatives accomplished? It hes accomplished the return of the following-pamed prominent gentlemen to the Republican party: Géneral Banks, Representative Seelyee, ‘Senator Booth, Carl Shurz, Senator . Fenton, Dewitt C. Littlejohn, Chauncey M. Depew, Stanley Mathews, General Cox of Ohio, General Tuttlé, of Iowa, and thousands of others of equal influence. q Rorsrsrrorp B. Hares is a pat‘menced, Rutherford B. Hayes said, “I would rather go inte this war and be killed in the course of it than live through it and have taken no part init.’’ Compare that with Mr. Tilden’s refusal to sigu the call for tbe Union meeting in New York. All the Democratic snakes, with their forked and poisonous tongues stuck out, have not found in the reputation of Gov. Hayes a crevice in which to deposit the poison of their malignity. Imagine a man so pure that the Democratic party cannot lie about him!—Ingersoll’s speech at the Cooper Institute. Tue Paymaster of the Consolidated Virginia and California mines, ou Wednesday, paid out $94,463 as @ month’s wages to employees; $84,000 of which was paid out in $20 gold pieces. ee, Tuer Hayes Tuvincibles of Marysville visited Oroville one night this week with torches and banners .— They made the finest display of tbe campaign.
