Semi-Weekly Tidal Wave. T. .». Bl ILER. I * a Editor. Tu< mIii) Morning, Dee. "411. — JL Original matter on every page latest outside. TIYB J At OUI** AGAIN. I'll.. Jacobins have b.u-n banntmg »he brain of the editor of the Idaho World during hi» late ill net«-. Fright ened at the picture of modern dem ocracy their history preneur», he cants about for mean» to drive away the ghost but it " will not down." The well-known characters of their dearest friends are so plainly marked in the little aketche- we gave from rfcott that modern Marat» begin to "see themselves as others see tliem." They see in the character of Holies - pierre the smooth hypocritical Pen dleton, with ht» cold, exaggerated »trains ol oratory, attempting to be guile the ignorant and the vulgar by accommodating his flattery to their passion» and scale of understanding. They see the people listening to this modem Kobespierre, as the lower orders did to his illustrinu- proto type, when, as t ruly tells in-, he ■'twanged out his apostrophes of * Paunrt Pruplt, /'cupfercrfcuctr I "' IVe shall not have to go to Kcott to learn that the purtrait of the elder Pendleton was Imng in all the haunts of vice in France and lhat it was rudely stamped on their hill» of ex change, ot which the greenback por trait« oi this modem Robespierre, »till visible in parts of this country, afford a striking illustration. They see also in Thiers' account of Danton the rough Hampton " whose countenance was that of an ogre on tim «houlders ot a Hercu les." The latter, like the former, occasionally melting to humanity so ss to tie approached with safety,when he would " laugh at the terror his declamation had excited." Then'in Hosseau, Buflbo, tnsqiiieu, D'Alembert, Diderot and a host of the leaders ot the crunade against law and fiovei mneilt may be plainly recognised the Uvt characti'rs of a Keymour, a Blair, a Voorheee, a Vallandigham, etc., who iu the eighteenth century kept out of harm's way their tools and miuioas to the perpe tration ol unheard of cruelties against the Government of their country and the loyal people who supported it. These parallels might be ruu ou until the last Jacobin in Mon am! theraselve», but urged franco ha«! tmind a counterpart in in the Unit«»d modern democracy States, but our space t» unequal to «o elaborate an exposition, beside« have said enough to awaken au interest iu the mallei should the we charge of Jacobin W agaim made against Republican». All we expect to accomplish i* to induce readers to aearcli out these ee how clmracU'i» themselves tinU vilelv they have been altein(ile<l to be imposed upon l>y either an igno rant or wilful Jacobinical pres,. We eannot suppose the Marat» of to-day be ignorant of the resemblance they bear their elder brother, and therefore set the whole thing down to inlciilit'ual deceit. oa an The H'i»rWx readers will observe that the only Argument it has found against our position is abuse of Kir Walter Scolt as a historian, whom to Gulliver, etc. Now it compare grunt that tm lur Napoleon or the French as a nation are con corned, Scott's views are taken with much allowance, but certainly he had no undue bias a" ainsi the Juco bimt who attempted to destroy that Government ; nor has llie World at tempted to show auy discrepancy be tween Scott and oliur historians on the points of owetablance between Jacobins and modern Democrats, but simply essays to divert its lead from the truth by ridicule and invidious comparison. we ers Christina« Incident». — A bcliecr mdtvLiuai commenced lh<* pauui me of j pounding in door» and kicking up at row gen j erally on Christmas morning and wap march» d off by roubtaM*' rdm-Iair for his pains, j Later in the day we obeerved several onmda eoiioctr » iu the r.treels and in ihe principal , R..iwota making violent demonstrations, ; sometimes a few blows were struck ami lu ! gome rases blood drawn, but no serious d un I age done to any one. Noise au»l couluaion was kept up until hde in the night, but upon a survey of the field next morning lo dc»I men and concluded it roust be» "drawn victory. In two or thre. places *<• | found the snow btoody, which iaeapUined by several parties having had ■■ a head " air "an.- nut on them ' while in pursuit of * " . . . pleasure under difficulties. Judge Lynam, . ........ ! who naturally sleeps sound "o nul ta," es , „ „ . 7. . , , ! penally Chr.rftma.-t nights, awoke trera pleas ing dreams in the morning to find a bullet hole through his w indow and one through each of the two .stove pipes ;u his office. The Judge takes judicial knowledge of th^| shooting in such case« and only requires identity as to person« lor proof. These, with an occasional good nalured case of hilarity, were about the incidents that occurred in the atreeU. ant ! ! . We find the following m the Dem ocratic organ of Butte County, CaJi fornia, the (kwcansian. It says : .... . Un Tuesday evening we were nonored by a vielt from Sir. Eugene Semple, Portland, Oregon. He was on his wav to San Francis co to purthane iiiau nal for * Iiretcj»*»news paper, to In* estal»ii-hed at Portland. Mr. j*. is a man of education and a Secrssionist, (ht brst proof that ht is a trut Democrat. * ' Peril apt Eugene* will not thank his »Secession brother tor letting the cat , out of the tmg, so close on the heels of old Beriith's being kicked out of the llernl'l for Secession proclivities. The democracy oi Oregon pretend great devotion to (he Fnion. and even hoist the national banner over their public meetings as they do in Idaho. 1 We were shown into Geo. Guns' concert room the morning after Christmas, where evidences of rough fare, in presence of bullet holes through »he back part of the bar, show M whew the fight had t«*en thickest. The proprietor informs us that the shooting was done, not lor the purpose of murder, but to » intimidate. \ »bot guu m the hands of a j •inber of the household cleared the ring, j however, and parties who left their hats be- t hiud can obtain them by calling on Mr G ana, Afi expedient was ref-f»rted to on Christina« morning by a well-dressed man hand. some, liait dozen who ht whom we did not know, calculated to test human power of endurance in a new find novel way, It combated in sitting down m a horse trough at Brtnkerhoff & Rogers' Stable and enjoying a sound sleep with the body partly tinmen*«!. Whether it was with a view to hardening th«i system in prospect ot a rough Winter or adopted as a sanitary mcas ire we are not advised. 1» Fair. Sheriff of Siskiyou County.
