Yesterday afternoon, just as we were "making up tbe form" pre paratory to going to press, we were waited upon by a deputy,' and Informed that a suit for libel bad been entered against us before ur friend, Justice R. C. Beveridge, of Rousevllle, at tbe instance of one MoCal- mont, who tbloks bis honor wounded, by a polios report which appeared in tbe Record of lbs 16tb, In regard to a soandalous affair Ja wblsh a woman of tbe town and other parties figured. We immediately secured the services of out legal friends, Meatr'a, J. II. Smith and W. W. Johnston, and accom panied by Messrs. N H. Payoa and James Adams, proceeded to Rousevllle, and enter d bail In tbo sum or 400 for an appear nuoe at court, those gentlemen becoming our security. We oeed hardly add that tbe Whole affair was witnessed by at least fifty of our citizens, who unite in prononuelog it ono of tbe moat scandalous and obscene affairs that ever came beneath their notice, and bad the polloe been present at the time tbs'partUta thereto would all have been arJ utl 1 1 ,1 I L. . . . ... - iww iihi iiuuvu iu iuv iocK-up ior aa turblng tbe peace.

We bave repeatedly stated that politics a not our rorte, but when an old friend comes along, like Mr. K.

V The following is from the Sao Francisco Cotammercial Herald: There can be little doubt that another Important Interest is in fair way to be added to those already promloeut in California. We allude espec ially to tbe pioduction of native petroleum an article which, within fifteen years, has become a leading export, valued in 1S70 at something over $31,000,000. We are not only paying large sums annually for tbe use of this material uoder various names, but are purchasing heavily for export of various countries waebedby tbe Paoific, and Ibis, too, when it was known that extensive de posits existed in California at localities within easy reach of navigation The Learning Petroleum Company, recently or ganized in this oity, has fairly commenced operations, with results wbiob augur abuod ant success. Tbe crude oil is found io the mountains of tbo San Francisco District, tbirty-flve miles west from Los Angeles, from wbioh point there Is railroad communi cation of twenty-one mils s with tbe port ol San Pedo. Tbe cost of transportation from tbo mines ia 2 centa tbe gallon, and the coat for refloioij.2 cents the gallon for small qaantitles, and for large lots. Up to tbe present time several shipments of'crude oil bave been received in this city, aggre gating some hundreds of barrels, which found immediate purchase at remunerative rate. Tbe Gas Companies are prepared to tako and nee not less than 1.000 barrels per day, and. tbe district owned by tbe company is sufficiently exteosive and prolific to war raat the delivery of that, or even greater amount so soon aa the reauraite caultalan be -obtained to furnish Writable works. These shipments have, so far, been tbe pro ducts of natural springs from wbicb tbe o',l was dipped by buckets; bat when a system of scientific operations shall have been in troduced, tbe yield will be vastly augment ed. It i tbe opinion ot capable ; gen tinmen wbo bave carefully examined the mines, tbat tbey are of sufficient eapaoity to furnish nearly all tbe oil required for consumption on Ibis coAC Tbe employment of petro leum, and tbe various preparatlona made from it, ia becoming very general through out the world, superseding candles, wbale palm, and other til's for illuminating as well as lubricating purposes and generating steam, while superiority as an antiseptic is frankly acknowledged by the medical fauo lty. The attention of capita 'ists and scien tific men once fairly enl'.stsd in tbe devel opment of this Important addition to our natural resources may, and probably will result in making California the market ofj supply for China, Japan, Australia, Russia, and tbe Pacific Oceanloa,. as well .-as the westers coasts of Mexico, Central and South America. We are persuaded tbat native petroleum exlats here in great ebondapces, requiring only capital and energy to redjder It an important element of our cpm,meKe..i i Mr. E. G. Crawford, of Franklin, was in tswnthls lownbo. Mr. C. is candidate foc-.re-'nomlnstioo for the office of County Protbonatory, on tbe Republican ticket. He appears sanguine ot success.

WE STILL LIVE, MOVE, AND HAVE OUR BEING 1 AND PROPOSE TO "FIGIIT IT OUT" TO THE BITTER END ! Yesterday, Mister McCnlmont, who it ap peals took offense at remarks made by this paper In regard to a disgraseful affair, wblcb we republish below, brought suit against us before Esquire Beveridge, at Rousevllle, for libel. We needj hardly add that the disgraceful affair was witnessed by nearly fifty of our best citizens, wbo unite in upholding tbe Record, and together with all our busioess men, wi.l sustain us in a suit to test tbe question as to whether oewepepers bave a right to make mention of, and soek to suppress outrages against the publlo mo rata In the meantime, the Re cord still continues to live, although "ye editor" is sued for libel, is threatened with a thrashing about three times a week on an average, and we take pleasure In informing Mister McCaltnont, that we "don't scare for a cent." We shall be "on deck" at tbe time the case comes off, and rich develop ments maybe expected. All "the boys'' and some of "tbe gals" will be around to 'take a band in." Here is, tbe libel article in question : About two o'clock his morning, while honest peacefil citizens were wrapt in siniu bera, suddenly their arose a ''yell of anguish, as of demons just let loose from pandenion ium carousing midnight revel." Our report er, startled from his sweet dreams of inno cence, hastily donned bia clothing and made a break for tbe street, supposing of couise tbaf something of fearful import bad occurred, and was already rejoicing in tbe prospect of a 0rst-class sensation item. The first aououV tbtt greetid bis ear, was a stream of vulgarity and black guard lans guage that would put to ebamo the most abandoned, emanating from tbe mouth of a woman, wbo waa standing in tbe window ol a certain law office, in the second story or tbe brick bank building. Tbe noiso ceased for a few moments and was thru resumed by the woman, mingled wlti-oaths and vile .language- front oue or two men who were in the room, and finally resulted in a general breakdown aud collapse of the f urniture awl stove at the bands of tbe iolurlated woman, who it seems had been locked in tbe room by the men, and waa striving to get out. Subsequently tbe door waa opened and tbe frail woman let loose, and peace restored. A word further. Tbe woman in question la a well koowV loose character, bad ouou for all common purposes, but what can bo said In palliation of tbe tbiufts in human form who .thus outrage all manner of decen cy and tbe'feeliogs of respectable people, by indulging In midnight broils and crousals like tbat enacted Ul night, tbo details of which are too digustlng for a bare recital even. We would advise tbem to crawl into some convenient mud or post bole and pull It in after them. We shall be compiled to give tne names ol tnese men in run in case another suoh disgraceful affair comes uoder our notioc.
