OATHS OF THE LABORERS’ UNION. : The oath of initiation, according to an officer of the society, runs thus: «T do solemnly swear that I will keep the secrets of the order. I further swear that I will assist any brotier . jp, need or distress as far as I am able. J farther swear that I will aid in executing the laws ofthe United ‘ States of America, so help ma God.” ‘mes states that it, was the laws of the kabor Unicon that-were sworn. to _ be exectted faithfully. The elect of the Cougeihof Nine took this eastiron oath: eDegearbelts God Almighty that I will carry out and obey all the orders of the Council of Nine, whatever they may be. If I do not do so my life is forfeited and.may be surely taken, as I may be pat to death by this Council of Nine.” A. M. AMES MAKES VOLUNTARY CONFESSION, He has been in the employ of the Sierra Flume Company, at Chico, until this affair happened, and states that he kept Mr. Hooper, his employer, fully informed of what took place at the secret meetings. He _ charges upon. the Laborers’ Union a conspiracy to murder white men and Chinese, and to destroy their property, The orgunization had its secret signs and passwords, Its object was assassination and violence, ‘The Caucasians, who joined it, were the most violent, Ames declared that he endeavored to prevgnt violence, but. was unsuccessful. phate Uehara Hampton Interviewed. Weshingtop, March 29th.—Goverpor Hampton said to the IJnterOcean correspondent that he had great confidence in the President; be liked Governor Obamberlain personally, and believed him an honest man, but thought himself fainly elected. Hewas firmly supparted now by the more intelligent colored people. All he'wants is that Chamberlain be placed on the same footing as himself by having the military withdrawn. He desiresand can make no compromise, Chamberlain wus already losing many pérsonal advocates, Who were tired of office witheut honor or pay, . Chamberlain and his friends assert that Hampton wants the troops withdrawn to give the Rifle clubsa chance to take the . State House and seize the archives. Hampton charges the press agents with misrepresenting him in_ his Southern speeches, made while en route here. The fact ishe madea blunder, and the Democrats have been training him against a repetition of it, causing bim to repudiate his words, Itispretty certain, cn the whole, that Hampton has received assurance that he will be practically cA Mell Loess LENSE Ses See eee Daily Branserip “As patient as Job,”’ and ‘‘As poor as Job’s off ox,’’ are sayings familJob ‘was a mative of the land of Uz.

The Lord asked Satan “where he came from, and Satan. replied that he had beea walking up and down the earth. The Lord then asked Satan if he -knew Job was the best man on earth? man, and intimated that most any man would bea good fellow if he had everything fixed as comfortably as the Lord had fixed it for Job. He said-if the Lord would touch ‘Job’s him to his face. Lhe Lord told Satan Job was in his power, and he Lmight-try the-experiment. So Satan went forth, and one. day when Job’s sons were feasting, the had messengers sent to Job to. inform on all his oxenand asses and tuken ‘them away, and had slain all his servants; that the fire of God from heaven ‘had: burned up all his sheep and his servants; that the Chaldeans hed fallen upon the camels and carried them away; that a great wind from the wilderness had come and smote the four corners ‘of Job’s house, sothat it fell and killed all] _ the young men., As soon as Job heard all thése things he shaved his head and fell down on the ground, and worshipped, and said blessed be The next day when the sons of God came to present themselves to the Lord; Satan also came along with them, and was again asked by the Lord, where he came from. Satan said he had been walking up and down the earth again. The Lordthen asked Satan what. he thought about Job now? His property had all been taken away, from him and _ yet he still held fast his integrity. Satan-said Job stood the loss of his property firstrate, but if the Lord would send some kind of physical suffering to Job he would not be #0 patient. So the Lord told Satan to go ahead and persecute Job, and see what would be the consequence. Satan went out from the presence of the Lord and smote Job with boils from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.Now, a man of the present day: is not.very resigned and patient when he has-even one boil, and we would naturally-expect that being covered with them from head to foot he would be so cross and ugly that no onecould live in the house with him. We always had the impression that Job took the matter philosophically, and complained not a. word. It appears, however, by reading the book of Job, that-he had more or less human nature in him and complained just the same as men of the present day would. He opened his mouth and cursed his day, and he wanted his night cursed also. He wished he had died before he was born, and he longed for death. His friend, Eliphaz, the ‘Temanite, reproved him for bis cursings and told him that after instructing the many, and strengthening the weak hands by counseling them to be patient and resigned to the Lord, it was not manly, as soon as trouble come upon him to fuint and betroubled. Eliphaz insisted that God only punished those who were guilty. He urged Job_to commit his cause to God, and trust in him, That these afflictions were for his good, ete. And Bildad, the Shuhite, also tried to persuade Job that God was just in his dealings with men; tbat the wicked were always miserable and the: righteous were happy. But Job insisted that his life was miserable, and he was tired of it. He expostulated with God because of his afflictions, aud beseeched hinr to let him have ‘a little comfort before he died. He told God that he knew he was ‘not wicked, and complained because he tormentedhim. Zophar, the Naamanite, another friend of Job’s reproved him for his selfi it away and let not wickedness dwell > = & k whiesi i a3 : ie seemed eee wh a glia FAST NR SR AAT ST ings for each one of them. One day: him that the Sabeans had fallen up. eousness, and vanity, and counseled him, if he had any sin, to -put we in his tabernacle, Job’s friends all asserted that the wicked are punished in this world,, but Job insisted that they were not all punishéd, atid after every complaint against the justice® of God, declared his faith in him. After several reproofs by his friends, Job was reptoved by God for bis presumption. God ariswered him out of the whirlwind, and told him to gird up his loins like a man, and tell whether he would disannul his judgment, and condemn him? Job then humbled himself before God, and repented in dust and ashes, Then God kindled his wrath against Job’s friend Eliphaz and his two friends, because they had comforted Job with the doctrine that God punished the wicked, and ordered them to take seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to Job and offer up. themselves_a _barnt “offering. He. said Job should pray. for them and he would accept. So they did as Lord gave Job twice as many oxen, . camels, she asses, and other proper. ty as he had before he got the boils. . He had fourteen“ thousand sheep iboxen instead of five -hundred, and a thousand she asses instead of five hundred. Where the Lord-got the extra stock, Job does not say. And when Job’s friends came tp see him, he gave everyoue of thems piece of money; and everyone of them an earring of gold. Job lived after this a hundred and forty years, and saw four generations of his children. “So Job died, being old, and full of day.”’ How long Job’s boils tasted bim, we do not kuow, for Job does not teilus. But we think it wasa good speculation for him. The Sacramento Bee has been guessing. Hear it: : “The Grass Valley Union (Dem.) warmly recommends the editor of the Nevada Transcripr (Rep.) as a very proper mun to be the Republican candidate for State Senator. The TRaNscuret. man recommends his Grass Valley comtemporary as a fit erson for the Democratic candidacy. Nove all this sounds very sweet, nice and magnaniious to tininitiated ontsidets. But there are bushels of humbug at the bottom. Each wants the other fellow put up as a candidate so that he will have a good chance to gofor his scalp, and lie about bim like a forty-horse power Ananias, and say everything possible that is mean and dirty about his rival. Each is seeking an opportup. ity for sweet and safe revenge. The Bee editor has lived near Burns’ slough so léng that his system is full of bileand he thinks all editors are as bilious es bimself. .

The Lord asked Satan “where he came from, and Satan. replied that he had beea walking up and down the earth. The Lord then asked Satan if he -knew Job was the best man on earth? man, and intimated that most any man would bea good fellow if he had everything fixed as comfortably as the Lord had fixed it for Job.. He said-if the Lord would touch ‘Job’s him to his face. Lhe Lord told Satan Job was in his power, and he Lmight-try the-experiment. So Satan went forth, and one. day when Job’s sons were feasting, the had messengers sent to Job to. inform on all his oxenand asses and tuken ‘them away, and had slain all his servants; that the fire of God from heaven ‘had: burned up all his sheep and his servants; that the Chaldeans hed fallen upon the camels and carried them away; that a great wind from the wilderness had come and smote the four corners ‘of Job’s house, sothat it fell and killed all] _ the young men., As soon as Job heard all thése things he shaved his head and fell down on the ground, and worshipped, and said blessed be The next day when the sons of God came to present themselves to the Lord; Satan also came along with them, and was again asked by the Lord, where he came from. Satan said he had been walking up and down the earth again. The Lordthen asked Satan what. he thought about Job now? His property had all been taken away, from him and _ yet he still held fast his integrity. Satan-said Job stood the loss of his property firstrate, but if the Lord would send some kind of physical suffering to Job he would not be #0 patient. So the Lord told Satan to go ahead and persecute Job, and see what would be the consequence. Satan went out from the presence of the Lord and smote Job with boils from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.Now, a man of the present day: is not.very resigned and patient when he has-even one boil, and we would naturally-expect that being covered with them from head to foot he would be so cross and ugly that no onecould live in the house with him. We always had the impression that Job took the matter philosophically, and complained not a. word. It appears, however, by reading the book of Job, that-he had more or less human nature in him and complained just the same as men of the present day would. He opened his mouth and cursed his day, and he wanted his night cursed also. He wished he had died before he was born, and he longed for death. His friend, Eliphaz, the ‘Temanite, reproved him for bis cursings and told him that after instructing the many, and strengthening the weak hands by counseling them to be patient and resigned to the Lord, it was not manly, as soon as trouble come upon him to fuint and betroubled. Eliphaz insisted that God only punished those who were guilty. He urged Job_to commit his cause to God, and trust in him, That these afflictions were for his good, ete. And Bildad, the Shuhite, also tried to persuade Job that God was just in his dealings with men; tbat the wicked were always miserable and the: righteous were happy. But Job insisted that his life was miserable, and he was tired of it. He expostulated with God because of his afflictions, aud beseeched hinr to let him have ‘a little comfort before he died. He told God that he knew he was ‘not wicked, and complained because he tormentedhim. Zophar, the Naamanite, another friend of Job’s reproved him for his selfi it away and let not wickedness dwell > = & k whiesi i a3 : ie seemed eee wh a glia FAST NR SR AAT ST ings for each one of them. One day: him that the Sabeans had fallen up. eousness, and vanity, and counseled him, if he had any sin, to -put we in his tabernacle, Job’s friends all asserted that the wicked are punished in this world,, but Job insisted that they were not all punishéd, atid after every complaint against the justice® of God, declared his faith in him. After several reproofs by his friends, Job was reptoved by God for bis presumption. God ariswered him out of the whirlwind, and told him to gird up his loins like a man, and tell whether he would disannul his judgment, and condemn him? Job then humbled himself before God, and repented in dust and ashes, Then God kindled his wrath against Job’s friend Eliphaz and his two friends, because they had comforted Job with the doctrine that God punished the wicked, and ordered them to take seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to Job and offer up. themselves_a _barnt “offering. He. said Job should pray. for them and he would accept. So they did as Lord gave Job twice as many oxen, . camels, she asses, and other proper. ty as he had before he got the boils. . He had fourteen“ thousand sheep iboxen instead of five -hundred, and a thousand she asses instead of five hundred. Where the Lord-got the extra stock, Job does not say. And when Job’s friends came tp see him, he gave everyoue of thems piece of money; and everyone of them an earring of gold. Job lived after this a hundred and forty years, and saw four generations of his children. “So Job died, being old, and full of day.”’ How long Job’s boils tasted bim, we do not kuow, for Job does not teilus. But we think it wasa good speculation for him. The Sacramento Bee has been guessing. Hear it: : “The Grass Valley Union (Dem.) warmly recommends the editor of the Nevada Transcripr (Rep.) as a very proper mun to be the Republican candidate for State Senator. The TRaNscuret. man recommends his Grass Valley comtemporary as a fit erson for the Democratic candidacy. Nove all this sounds very sweet, nice and magnaniious to tininitiated ontsidets. But there are bushels of humbug at the bottom.
