Donelson, OF TENNESSEE. DEATH OF JAMES KING OF WILLIAM The sad intelligence of the death of this fearless champion of reform flashed along the eleetric wires on Tuesday evening, filling every true heart with sorrow, and draping our city in mourning. If the prayers of our citizens could have availed, James King of William would have lived forever, or at least till his bold and ready pen had regenerated the political and social society of the Pacific. Never since the miner first “folded up his tent like the Arab and quietly stole” into the rich placers of Nevada, did such a pall settle down upon the community as when the unbidden news passed from mouth to mouth that the great apostle of principle was no ‘ more. Death could not have chosen a more valued victim from the ranks of the living. The assassin’s hand could have been raised against a thousand others andg their death notes would not have wrung “eed, now a fait acccmpli—sympathy for the the hearts of a State, as the fall of thek unfortunate victim and bis family, and desire ood ¢a¥g for the speedy punishment of the criminal, and one has done.

The whole bedy seemed to be anima. ted with one sentiment —horror of the bloody ? him in whom scemed to be vested the sav-g ing principle to purify and exalt society.@ He it was, who tore the mask from vice and corruption and held them up to the virtuous indignation of men, in all their naked and loathsome deformity.

The gambler for a dollar at the faro table met no heavier condemnation than the gambler for millions at the banking table. He dared to tear the mask from the perjured brow of the lawyer who prostituted his talents and position to let the assassin es cape, and did so as readily and sternly as he de nounced the assassin arraingned for his life.— He tore with impartial hand the gilded gar ments from the form of splendid sin, and the rags from crouching infamy. He dared do right, and execute his high mission, and fo this he is a martyr. Where can we find a per to fill his place? Search ‘through —where a man who like him has of that class who begin to find San Francisco inconvenient as a place of residence. The resolution was unanimously adopted} sand the speaker closed with thanks for the at tention paid him, and was loudly applanded.he meeting then adjourned.

Donelson, OF TENNESSEE. DEATH OF JAMES KING OF WILLIAM The sad intelligence of the death of this fearless champion of reform flashed along the eleetric wires on Tuesday evening, filling every true heart with sorrow, and draping our city in mourning. If the prayers of our citizens could have availed, James King of William would have lived forever, or at least till his bold and ready pen had regenerated the political and social society of the Pacific. Never since the miner first “folded up his tent like the Arab and quietly stole” into the rich placers of Nevada, did such a pall settle down upon the community as when the unbidden news passed from mouth to mouth that the great apostle of principle was no ‘ more. Death could not have chosen a more valued victim from the ranks of the living. The assassin’s hand could have been raised against a thousand others andg their death notes would not have wrung “eed, now a fait acccmpli—sympathy for the the hearts of a State, as the fall of thek unfortunate victim and bis family, and desire ood ¢a¥g for the speedy punishment of the criminal, and one has done.

The gambler for a dollar at the faro table met no heavier condemnation than the gambler for millions at the banking table. He dared to tear the mask from the perjured brow of the lawyer who prostituted his talents and position to let the assassin es cape, and did so as readily and sternly as he de nounced the assassin arraingned for his life.— He tore with impartial hand the gilded gar ments from the form of splendid sin, and the rags from crouching infamy. He dared do right, and execute his high mission, and fo this he is a martyr. Where can we find a per to fill his place?
