It is remembered that a couple of miners commencing sinklog a shaft in Main street nearly in front of the South Yuba Oanal Company’s office, then the great business point of them, but only received for answer, that there was “no law egainet digging in the streets,’ and they were going to dig, “Then I'll make a law,” said the citizen, and walking into bie store he brought out a revolver, and a precedent was established then and there, that mipere could not dig up the streets of Nevada. e About this time (it is of little importance the exact date) Nevada electof one Ezekial Dougherty. “Uncle Zeke” has left onthe memory of men geveral of his remarkeble sayinge, one or two of which we will relate. A fellow was examined before Uncle Zeke, charged with horse stealing. Several witnesses were sworn who testified againet the prisoner quite. strongly. It looked like a plain case.

On another occasion, under like circumstences, in a criminal case, the, evidence was all in, the prosecation had spoken and Unele Zeke was fatigued.

On one c0casion a young lawyer had given him an excoriation in coart. When the Oourt adjourned the Oounty Olerk, sitting by the stove with Judge B——— at a botel, rem way, that “oouncel was rather severe came and swept every thing before it, ip owlog to rivalry of streets. ; Broad arked in a symphatbizing . . “. went on the »arpath and wanted to and after filling upon the vile stuff that she manbtain some way or another, whip some one very badly, In iseu‘ing her challenge she prefaced it by rulings of the “Justice did not suit Frank, end stating in the face of the Court, he said in his peculiar drawl, . . *Your Honor’s a fool,” but suddenly . ; he‘apologized with, “your Honor, I take that back, for in the language 0! a celebrated poet, the trath shouldn't be spoken at all times!’ On another oocasionFrank was earnéstly endeavoring to make the same Coart comprehend some proposition of daw, and warming up worked himeelf to the Justice’s desk, aud picking up e lew bok he emphasized his sentence by pounding said book furiously upon the desk. ‘The Oourt, with great seriousness and an air of injured dignity, interrupted: “Mr. Dunv, you muen’t pound my desk so!” “I will pound your desk,” drawled Frank ; “you're an old man, but yon can send some of your big boys for eatisfaction !” and Frank went on making a tilt-hammer the law volume.
