INDISPUTABLE PROOF.The Slander About Mr. Walling Being Connected With the AntiCornish Club. To whom it may concern:—VWithin two days of the meeting of the late Republican County Convention, son or persons Were circulating a report that I had been in some manner connected with the formation of an Anti-Cornish Club in this city. I tried to ascertain who was the author of such a report, but was unable to doso. After my nomination, I took occasion to-speak of the matter, and then-statea that all such reports were infamous lies. I had hoped that a public challenge of that chararacter would have ended the matter, instead of which I learn that such report is still being circulated. In order that the matter may be set at rest I desire to call attention to the following affidavits; and in addition thereto I hereby publicly challenge the production of any proofs, from any reliable source, connecting myself in any manner with any such club, T regret the apparent necessity of appearing in print in relation to this matter, but my position as a nominee ofthe Republican party, seems to demand that I take this course. If no proof can be found contrary ‘to my statements herein contained, supported as they are by the affidavits published herewith, may I not hope that this will be accepted as proof of the falsity of the charge ?

V. W. and L. Co. for trial and to proceed with the trial thereof in due course. The facts, upon which the Court refused to proceed with the trial, were ptesented to the Supreme Court substantially as follows: The petitjoner, Rose, commenced an action against several defendants to recover the possession of a tract of land, plaintiff’s title being a patent from the United States. ‘he defendants answering, an.ong other defenses, set up that the patent was obtained through fraud. This last defense was, on motion, stricken out, on the ground that the patent could not be attacked in that action, and the Court set a day for trial as to the other issues. On the day’ fixed for the trial, the defendants moved a continuance, on the ground that they by location of mining élaims under the laws of the United States; that the patent of the plaintiff had been obtained by fraud, in that the premises being in fact mining ground, were not subjected to being patented to plaintiff, the patent being for agricultural land, and that a suit had been commenced (and was then pending) in the proper Federal Court, by the Attorney General of the United States, for the purpose of having the patent declared fraudulent and set aside. The motion was resisted by plaintiff, who filed counter-affidavits denying the alleged fraudulent acts. The Court granted the motion for a continuance, and made an order continuing the trial of the cause until the further order of the Court, or until the determination of the validity of the patent by the United States Court. This order was made May 29,1884. On the 2d day of June, 1884, the Court refused to set aside this last order, and refused to set the case down for trial, Thereupon the plaintiff (petitioner) made application for the writ of mandate. The Supreme Judges deny the writ saying: Wethink it was competent for the Court to continued the causea reasonable time to abide the determination of the suit in the Federal Court. If the hearing of that cause shall be unreasonably delayed or postponed, the petitioner will be entitled to have her case in the Superior Court proceeded , with; but it does not appear that unreasonable delay has yet occurred.

He was put aboard a train to be conveyed to the Railroad Hospital at Sacramento and died en route. He leaves a wife and two children. Whose Bones? As stated in this paper last week, on. or about the 5th instant, near Columbia Hill, andin the vicinity of Wasson’s ranch, were discovered the bones of the head, arms and legs, also the clothing of a person who from indications must have died about a year-since. As far as known no evidence exists indicating the name of the deceased or from whetice—hecame. He must have been of less than medium stature, wearing about No. 7 stitched calf boots, black felt hat, and a full suit of brown checked wool goods.

A Young Boy Dangerously Shoots Himself While Hinting. Between one and two o’clock Tuesday afternoon, while hanting, Jobn Guecetti, a fifteen year oli boy who lives with his uncle, B. Guscetti of Willow Valley, accidentally shot himself through the upper part of the left arm, and it is feared that the wound may result fatally. He was at the time on the lower part of his uncle’s ranch, four or five hundred feet from the house. Some men working in the vicinity heard the shot, followed by his cries for helpThey went to the lad’s assistance and carried him to the house, Dr. Hunt of thie city and Dr. Jones of Grass were summoned, and upon their arrival found the arm so badly. shattered that it was necessary to amputate it at the shoulder joint. The sufferer stood the operation of disarticulation reinarkably well, and although he isin a precarious condition there is a chance that he will recover, The exact manner in which the shooting occurred is not known to his relatives, but from the appearance of the wound it is probable that the muzzle of the gun was nearly under his arm-pit when the charge exploded. He climbed a fense and ran several yards after being shot, then fell. to the ground where he was found. The Langrishe Engagement. On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of next week, J. S. Langrishe, the popular actor, will appear at the:Theatre in this city supported by a full comedy company. The support has been considerably strengthened since the last engagement played here by the combination.

Miss Forrest joins the troupe to-night as leading lady, They Sent the Proofs. J. L. Holland has been over at Auburn, Placer county, this week, hunting deer in company with his friend, Doc. Wilkinson. Tuesday a good sized box came from them by express, addressed to Archie Nivens and J. M. Buffington, Jr. The confiding and game loving consignees took the package from the express office,-paying the charges with the belief that they were getting enough deer meat at about half a ceuta pound to last them a week. When they opened it they found the ears and hoofs of three deers, accompanied by a document testifying to the effect that the animals to which the trophies once belonged had been killed in two days by the consignors at distances ranging from 200 to 500 yards. Buffington and Nivens have loaded their fowling pieces to the muzzlejwith saltpeter and red peppers and are waiting patiently for J. L.’s return from the hunting field. The Late Mrs. W. W. Deamer. The San Francisco Examiner of Monday says: A death which is surrounded by veculiar touching circumstances is that of Mrs. Deamer, of Berkely, the young wife of W. W.

The trial of Slattery and Rodda, the fistic artiste, for distucbing the peace, attracted a big audience to Justice Blakey’s courtroom Monday evening, and asa number of sporting men and bruisers were put onthe stand to testify what they knew about the matter, there were lots of funny scenes to keep the crowd on the broad grin. Joe Billings, Rodda’s partner who was KWocked down by Slattery for.throwing a cuspidore at the latter, said in the course of his testimony: “Rodda stood just like this. He wasn’tsaying a bloody word. Iwas doing all the gab. I was the one that ought to be knocked.down. Jimmie he wasn’t sayin’ nothing. WhenI hove that spittoon at Slattery, he just turned around and put me tosleep. I*didn’t disturb any peace though. I paid my fine, didn’t I pardner ? [addressing the Judge.] I paid it because I didn’t want my name to get into the newspapers,” A tough-looking witness who said he was just from Marysville, was asked: “Did you come here to fight Rodda ?” “No. I am a teacher of the manly hart of self defense. I don’t believe in fightin’. Fightin’ is bad for the eyes,” The case went to the jury shortly before eleven o’clock. Half an hour after midnight the jury brought in a verdict against both defendants. Yesterday they were fined $25 each. Slattery paid his fine, but Rodda deposited $100 and gave notice of an appeal to the Superior Court. >. Will Leave To-Day. G. E.

A Political Pretender. A correspondent of the Stockton Herald says that Sumner, the carpetbag candidate for Congress from the Second District, has brains, honesty and courage. “If this be 80,” reéplies the San Francisco Daily Exchange, which is independent in politics, “the must have changed considerably since he was a member of the Nevada Legislature. Sumner went to Congress from this State with a great flourish of trumpets, and with the advantage of a Democratic majority in the House. He attempted to ride a hobby, but even ia that, as in everything else, proved to be a nonentity. If windy blather makes a statesman, Sumner is a statesman. Fume and demiagogy are all there in the mar 3 in other words he is a first-class political humbug.” Ee Business. and Pleasure.

To whom it may concern:—VWithin two days of the meeting of the late Republican County Convention, son or persons Were circulating a report that I had been in some manner connected with the formation of an Anti-Cornish Club in this city. I tried to ascertain who was the author of such a report, but was unable to doso.

V. W. and L. Co. for trial and to proceed with the trial thereof in due course. The facts, upon which the Court refused to proceed with the trial, were ptesented to the Supreme Court substantially as follows: The petitjoner, Rose, commenced an action against several defendants to recover the possession of a tract of land, plaintiff’s title being a patent from the United States. ‘he defendants answering, an.ong other defenses, set up that the patent was obtained through fraud. This last defense was, on motion, stricken out, on the ground that the patent could not be attacked in that action, and the Court set a day for trial as to the other issues. On the day’ fixed for the trial, the defendants moved a continuance, on the ground that they by location of mining élaims under the laws of the United States; that the patent of the plaintiff had been obtained by fraud, in that the premises being in fact mining ground, were not subjected to being patented to plaintiff, the patent being for agricultural land, and that a suit had been commenced (and was then pending) in the proper Federal Court, by the Attorney General of the United States, for the purpose of having the patent declared fraudulent and set aside. The motion was resisted by plaintiff, who filed counter-affidavits denying the alleged fraudulent acts. The Court granted the motion for a continuance, and made an order continuing the trial of the cause until the further order of the Court, or until the determination of the validity of the patent by the United States Court. This order was made May 29,1884. On the 2d day of June, 1884, the Court refused to set aside this last order, and refused to set the case down for trial, Thereupon the plaintiff (petitioner) made application for the writ of mandate. The Supreme Judges deny the writ saying: Wethink it was competent for the Court to continued the causea reasonable time to abide the determination of the suit in the Federal Court. If the hearing of that cause shall be unreasonably delayed or postponed, the petitioner will be entitled to have her case in the Superior Court proceeded , with; but it does not appear that unreasonable delay has yet occurred.

A Young Boy Dangerously Shoots Himself While Hinting. Between one and two o’clock Tuesday afternoon, while hanting, Jobn Guecetti, a fifteen year oli boy who lives with his uncle, B. Guscetti of Willow Valley, accidentally shot himself through the upper part of the left arm, and it is feared that the wound may result fatally. He was at the time on the lower part of his uncle’s ranch, four or five hundred feet from the house. Some men working in the vicinity heard the shot, followed by his cries for helpThey went to the lad’s assistance and carried him to the house, Dr. Hunt of thie city and Dr. Jones of Grass were summoned, and upon their arrival found the arm so badly. shattered that it was necessary to amputate it at the shoulder joint. The sufferer stood the operation of disarticulation reinarkably well, and although he isin a precarious condition there is a chance that he will recover, The exact manner in which the shooting occurred is not known to his relatives, but from the appearance of the wound it is probable that the muzzle of the gun was nearly under his arm-pit when the charge exploded. He climbed a fense and ran several yards after being shot, then fell. to the ground where he was found. The Langrishe Engagement. On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of next week, J. S.

Joe Billings, Rodda’s partner who was KWocked down by Slattery for.throwing a cuspidore at the latter, said in the course of his testimony: “Rodda stood just like this. He wasn’tsaying a bloody word. Iwas doing all the gab. I was the one that ought to be knocked.down. Jimmie he wasn’t sayin’ nothing. WhenI hove that spittoon at Slattery, he just turned around and put me tosleep. I*didn’t disturb any peace though. I paid my fine, didn’t I pardner ? [addressing the Judge.] I paid it because I didn’t want my name to get into the newspapers,” A tough-looking witness who said he was just from Marysville, was asked: “Did you come here to fight Rodda ?” “No. I am a teacher of the manly hart of self defense. I don’t believe in fightin’. Fightin’ is bad for the eyes,” The case went to the jury shortly before eleven o’clock. Half an hour after midnight the jury brought in a verdict against both defendants. Yesterday they were fined $25 each. Slattery paid his fine, but Rodda deposited $100 and gave notice of an appeal to the Superior Court. >. Will Leave To-Day. G. E.

Sumner went to Congress from this State with a great flourish of trumpets, and with the advantage of a Democratic majority in the House. He attempted to ride a hobby, but even ia that, as in everything else, proved to be a nonentity. If windy blather makes a statesman, Sumner is a statesman.
