Rrv. Isaac D.—From what we learn,
tho following paragraph from the National Intel •
ligenetr will be news to Mr. Colo’s congregation.
We learn that from the kind relations existing
between the pastor and hts people, the change
spokenof is not at all Ukoly to be effeoted :
“ Rot. Isaac Colo, M. D., of Philadelphia, sup
plied tt» pulpit reoentiy ieftvaoant by Itev. Dr.
Teasdab, in theThirteonth-stroct Baptist Churoh.
It is tin hope and tloslro of this church that he
will accept tho oall extended to him to beoome the
pastor <f this church. Dr. Cole is a good preuoher,
and aneffeotive, successful pastor. It was under
his labors that tho new ohuroh edifice of the Fast
Washington Baptist Church was built up. It will
be to thu destitute ohuroh a star of hope if Dr. Colo
shall bioom theire pastor.”

Kussiah&s reconstituted the Bible Sooloty, which
was supendod during his fathor’s roign, making it
a donttion of 25,000 roubles (about $20,000), and
promisng it an annual subscription of 10,000 rou*

The big lump of gold found in Columbia, re
cently, by Mr. Strain, has been molted and run
into a bar, whioh weighs 101 ounces, or 33$ pounds,
and sold for $7,438 50.- - Besides this, Mr. Strain

cord.
A terrible tragedy was enacted at El Monte; Bos
Angeles oounty, on tho Oth September. Hilliard
P. Dorsey, a native of Georgia, where be has rela
tives at present residing, was shot dead by his own
father-in-law, W. IF. Rubotfom: The authorities
of tho locality declare that ltubottom acted justi
fiably, iu self-defence, and his neighbors all side
with bim and his daughter in the dreadful affair,
as Dorsey was a very violent and brutal man.
The most striking proof of the sympathy felt for
the late Vigilance Committee in this city, bv the
people throughout the entire State, was manifested
reeently at Downieville, Sierra oounty. James
Hennessey, one of the men expelled from the city
by tbat'organization, brought suit at Downieville
for damages against eertain mouthers of tho com
mittee. The trial was set for bth September.
The committee, who were represented by able
counsel, were anxious to have tho. oasa settled
without any delay or resort to legal quibbles. It
was found utterly impossible to ompannel a jury.
Out of a venire , of fifty jurors summoned, only
twooouldbe found Who were not “prejudiced”
in favor of the oommittee. Ono or two, Who were
not even citizens at the time, had read of their
acts at home and approved thorn The question
was asked a juror by one of the lawyors, “ If he
thought that tho trial of the jurors just bad would
be a fair expression of the feeling and sympathy
of the people of tho country!” when ho was an
swered, “ Yos, and I believo of the entire State ”
The fudge’wns so thoroughly convinced of the im
possibility of procuring an unbiased jary to try
the case, that ho stated his impression to the
lawyers, that it would bo a wasting of tho time of
tho court to mako any further effort, and' ex
pressed his astonishment at tho unanimity of fool
ing in favor of the Vigilance Committee.
The opinion of some lawyers who wore present
at the trial, and who had been opposod to the
illegal aots of the oommittee, was, that the oppo
sition to the organisation was confined solely to a
few “politicians” and lawyers. There is no de
nying tho fnot that the sympathy for tho commit
tee is as warm and popular to-day as when they
first organized. Opposition to real reform is use
less In California.
On the evening of 15th September, a colored man
named Gas. Ennis, while sitting in bis room at
Coloma, El Dorado county, was shot dead, by a
charge of buokshot. 4

limb amputated until the 14tb, and then died un
der the operation. He was a momber of the Senate

—This question has been decided in the negative
by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania., In .the
ease of Patrick Kelly vs- the Pennsylvania Kail

way company was liable for damages arising from
tbe obstruction of, a public highway at’ a “cross--

stance the plaintiff bad sont his/son, a boy nine
years of age, to town’for tobacco. On reaching,
the tofapike, ho attempted to creep under tho de
fendants oars, whichhad just arrived,,and were
.standing oorossit. The train started,'and his leg
wasooughtin tbe wheel, and 'so injured ,aS to
render amputation necessary. TWjury foundj by,
. their vordiot, that, the defendants were obstruct-’

The Alliance. —The Danites and Repub
licans are openly in concert of notion. At Charles-.

i lican marshal of the day, stated lo Judge Douglas
that he had received a letter from R. B. Carpen
ter, of Chicago, requesting him, Chambers, to an*
nounoe that Carpenter would hold s meeting at
Charleston on *Wedneeday next. Chambers asked
; Douglas if he might* make the announcement at

! he wished he would do so, os it would be another link
!in the proof that tho Dauites'and Republicans are
acting in concert—tho Republican And, Danite

All Swept Away. —Among the many sad
incidents, says the New Orleans Delta % of the pro*
sent epidemio, whioh haveoomo to our knowledge,
and which we hnvo gooerally abstained from pub
lishing, is the following, perhaps unsurpassed in
afflictive interest: A Gorman, who came to this
eity many years Bince, had acquired a large pro*,
perty. and last sprlog he sent over. to “. fader- ,
land 0 and removed to this oity all the members of
his immediate family, in number soiqe seven or
eight—father, mother, brothers, and sisters. Not
long after their arrival the pestilenoe entered Ms
household, and ceased not its work of death until
every one of tho newly arrived relatives were car
ried forth to their graves in a strange land whioh
they had come so far to fill. -
Lonoevity.—On tho morning of Sunday,
tVb 3d instant, there died in East Corinth, Me., a
maiden lady named Ddgerly, whose age, as shown
by the written record, was one hundred and seven
teen years. She was believed to be five years
older than that. The Bangor. Union says: She
perfectly retained her faculties until within tv.o
years, her eyesight being clear enough to enable,
her to thread a needle as readily as any young
person. : She was born oh Cape Cod in 1730, at
whioh time - 'Washington was bat four years old.
At tho Declaration of Independence she was forty
years old, eight year* older than Thomas Jeffer
son, who signed that instrument.— Lowell Adver

i New Hampshire Granite for Queen

Bays : “ A ploce of granite was exhibited at the
Merchants’ Exchange this morning, bearing on
the surface tho exact resemblance of the top part
of a troe or shrub, ail the lines oi the. foliage be*
ing dearly and porfeotly visible lb is supposed
the sprig or branch of a tree accidentally fell into
a orevioe in the rook, whioh afterwards by the
action of the frost dosed up, and in oourse of time
the frceh groen bough became petrified into a
solid rock. The blook of granite was found in
Wolfborough. New Hampshire. It is intended as
a prosent to Queen Viotoria.” v
Kansas Sweets.— They are making sor
ghum sucre in, Kansas. A letter from Leaven
worth says: “I was in the Quaker settlement,
some twelve’ miles from Leavenworth, and saw
them making the Chinese sugar cane molasses.
The gentleman boiliog the molasses told me that
tho juioo only needed rodnoing two-thirdato make
thick inolaesos, full as tbiok as New Orleans or

lons of molasses from seven rods of ground One
man near Leoompton, I understand, would make

fifty cents a gallon. It is ongaged at that prioe. ’ *
