Some ouo then proposed that wo should go for White; and without moro ado a dart was made by tho wholo of us for White’s cabin. wns lying on the floor dead, with his neck broken. For Hono«t Temperance People. , Honest temperance people will read with interest tbe following from the Springfield Union. I t is a more frank arid open statement than is ordinarily made : Two years ago among tho snloOn pas- sengers on board diF {lie Cunnrd linors was a.gdld digger, wlio seomed fond of telling that he had made his pile, und that he was going to England to enjoy it He wa?a tall, wellbuilt, good-look- ing man, a little nnder forty, and; not withstanding certain peculiarities of manner, and speepb, lie was, on the wkade, popular. To some, perhaps, his money, which he spent lavishly, was a recommendation; but inany were cer- tainly attached to him by his ingenious, wartu-kenrtod disposition. Ho told ns —for he made ho secret of tho fact—- that he was worth a hundred thousand dollars. * A SCARE nr CAMP. “Tho party now resolved to give chase to tho anaconda, nnd I wvs able to join them. The serpent had been badly wounded, so that it was easy to follow the bloody trail. I t led straigh t to W h ite s cabin. Oq entering we found the anaconda nearly dead, and it was soon dispatched. 1“ On examining tbo cabin we fonnd under tbe floor a great bole which was covered over with boards. Tbis exca- vation had not only -beon the k i r of the snake, but the receptacle of the 'plun- der which had boen taken by White from the monster’s unfortunate vict- ims. , ..v<':_ *• I am paid for my work by Demo- cratic money, and I am doing what 1 am hired and paid for—trying to hart the Republican party all lean.” Thiri was tho substance of a statement made by an alleged ‘‘tempprfinco advocate\' not a thousand mfles from Springfield* not many days age, when he was asked why be was talking anti Republican inj stead of practical temperance. People will vcry_80on learn how much credence to give to that sort of so-called“ tem-i poranco advocate” who are trying to break down the only political party that has evor dono anything for tem- perance. We found him in, and soon dragged him out. I never saw abject terror moro plainly depicted cn a man’s faco. He was absolutely mute with fear, aud in answer to our charge he bad not a word lo say ia his own defense. Then we searched him, and found a watch- cbain and sevoral other small articles that wero known to have belonged to the expressman. ‘ By this timo there was a big crowd about us, for work wns over, nnd tho men c.uno flocking in from all direc- tions. Then thero was a call ou evory side for a judgo and jury. Tbo trial was a short ono, and barely an hour aft- er he had boon dragged from bis cabin Whito wns hanging from tbo bough of n tall pino that grew on tho edgo of tho canon. • INSU RANCE AGENCY . ,4‘; cm‘ .41, T H E NEW FIRM OF F ALL KINDS OF INSURANCE W H I l ’ t E N MORSE & HA.YES, , Too idle to work, nnd too cowardly and mcak to rob by himself, tho man whom we had lynched had trained this foil accomplice to do bis murderous work.
