Blaine’s stand on the Chinese and silver
questions—matters in which tho people
of this state take a special interest—ac­
counts in part for his strength tn this

son for Blaine's popularity here, as eve­
ry wliero else is tho conviction among
tho workers that he is a friend of labor.
The tariff, which protects the American
industry’ against ruinous European com­
petition, has in him its most brilliant
defender. Yet Mr. Blaine in his cham­
pionship of protection simply speaks for
his partv. In Ids moments of great ar­
dor he lias not outstripped tho republi­

free trade theory. The prevailing senti­
ment in California among all classes ia
favorable to protection.

Jefferson Davis attacks General Sher­

too late. He had all the opportunity he
wanted to attack Sherman twenty-one
years ago, when William Tecumseh was

failed to attack at that, time to any pur­
pose and had to run away, and was
caught ineffectively disguised in a wo­
man’s petticoat, ami was finally spared

tried to destroy. Nothing that this un­
hung traitor can say at this late day is
of any particular consequence to aqy

the case is accepted, what is to be
thought of the intelligence of a man who

that such idiots ought to be subjected to

About a year ago the receiver of taxes

Capt. Carrol is decidedly unfortunate.
It lias been but a lew years since the
Great Republic, which was under bis
command, was lost at the mouth of the
Columbia. Of late lie has been in charge
of the steamer Ancon, plying between
San Francisco and Victoria.
On the
evening of September 13th the Ancon
was under full speed and when neat
Gustoven point, near the entrance to
Glacier Bay, stiueka rock and stove a
hole ill the foie part of the vessel, fifteen
feet in breadth. There was a heavy sea
on at the time and the situation was per­
ilous, but under the assuianeeof Cap­
tain Carroll, the passengers b shaved
well.
The waler put out the fires at 11
;>. til., but by 12 midnight the flood tide
floated the vessel off the rock. All sail
was hoisted «nd the vessel beached.
Here the passengers remained for four­
teen days, living on the upper deck, as
the lower deck was submerged. In the
meantime Captain Carroll sent a steam
launch to Kill:-,.moo, eighty miles distant
and from thence tile tidings were sent to
Sitka. The II. 8. steamer l’inta came to
the assistance of the shipwrecked pas­
sengers. The 1’inta could not accoinmo-
I ite the passengers when she arrived
on the scene, and returned to Juneau,
where word was left for the Idaho. Tl.e
Idaho took the passengers to Sitka and
from there to Victor! i. The Ancon was
patched up and floated on the 2d of Oc­
tober, and taken to Douglas Island
where she will be repaired un I taken to
San Francisco. The passengers passed
the fourteen days detention in hunting,
fishing, and whist playing. Tho fact
that the hold of the Ancon was tilled
with empty barrels prevented lrcr from
sinking.
No lives were lost, but Mrs.
Alex Whidden, of Philadelphia, aged 75
years, was made seriously ill, and sub­
sequently was stricken with paralysis.
She is now so ill that her life is dispair-
ed of.
