A Bullion Miner Tries HU Hand as a Butcher. Last evening, shortly after sunset, a rather cool and seemingly unpardonable attempt was made at Bullion, by James Potter, a miner, to vivisect Thomas Donan. It seems that the two men were in a saloon, and Donan, in a friendly way, invited Potter up to the bar to drink. While Donan was standing near the bar Potter approached him, and without any provocation whatever drew a long-bladed pocket-knife and attempted to carve Donan. The latter endeavored to get away from Potter, but before doing so received a severe cut in the left hip, fire inches long by four inches deep, splitting the muscles open so that they looked like raw beef.

His clothing was cut in two or three places, where Potter had evidently attempted to make a deadly thrust. The injured man was brought to Hailey and his wounds dressed hv Drs. Brown and Sweet. He will pro bably recover without sustaining any permanent injury. The above report was obtained from friends of the wounded man.

THE OTHER SIDE. A Times reporter called at the jail this morning and interviewed James Potter, who was brought down and locked up late last evening. Potter's story is substantia'ly as follows: Early last evening I was playing cards in -i saloon at Bullion, when Donan approached me and tried to pick a quairel. I told him to keep away, as I did not want to have any fuss with him. He continued to talk with me, and finally caught hold of mr and we had a little scuffle.

This ended and Donan moved away from me, but came back again after a little. He then showed that he wanted to have a fuss with me, hut I again told him 1 did not want anything to do with him I got up and started for the door, in tending to leave the place, when Donan hit me with something; I don't know what it have been a c.ribbage-board—and knocked me down. He then tried to kick me. It was at this 1 was down and being the cutting occurred. I then left the place, and that is all there is to the matter.

bears an ug'y cut about four inches long oil the left side of the face, which in a measure goes to sub stantiate part of his Potter was taken before Justice Miles for examination, but owing to absence of witnesses, the case was postponed until to-morrow morning.

Portland has a society bearing the title of "Merchants' and Laboring Men's Anti-Coolie Law and Order Association," with subordinate lodges in several of the leading cities of Oregon and Washington Territory.

The Anti Chinese Union, in Columbia, contemplates going a step fur ther in opposition to the ruce of pigtails than has California. At a late meeting in Victoria a resolution was adopted hailing with pleasure the intention of Mr. Orr, the member for Now Westminster district, to introduce at the next session of the provincial legislature a measure to withhold from any and every Chinaman a miner's certificate. This would, if passed into law, take from the Celestials the right to work in the gold fields, where in some districts they threaten soon to outnumber the whites. A writer in the Popular Pulse, of Portland, states that Coolie slaves work for four cents an hour in that city.

Poor show for white labor in that neighborhood. A QUARTER MILLION CHINESE. The San Francisco Call relates that a leading Chinese merchant has furnished a list of the Chinese Six Companies, and the number of Chi nanien in that State belonging to each. This statement was as follows: COMPANY. CHINAMEN.

It is the richest and strongest of the six. Its members are those who come from the south of China. Those belon ing to other companies come from other parts of the Empire." Tin same Chinaman suys there are riumer ous Chinamen in San Frauciseo who have grown rich in fraudulent devices in securing the admission of Chinese During the time of the big flood in California, when the Sacramento valley was almost completely submerged and movable structures of every conceivable kind were being curried down the irresistible current, together with horses, cattle, sheep, hogs, etc.

a Chinaman was seen by some gen tlemen going down the river astride of a log. He Mas hailed by one of them, who asked; "Where you go, John?" The reply was: "Me no saba." The long-tailed, rat-eating heathen seem to be somewhat exercised over the same conundrum, at the present time, all over the coast. An Indorsement. To the Editor of the Times: We are very much gratified at the stand your paper has taken on the Chinese question. I hope your valuable journal will bo instrumental in driving the heathen from Wood River.

We nave a personal interest in this matter. For four years we have sojourned on Wood River, and during that time haye always patronized Chinamen. We have gone the rounds and these pagans won't trust us any more, so you see if they are driven out whoever comes to take their places will not be on to our racket, and we shall have a chance to get in our free wash scheme until we have played all the new laundries. Yours thankfully, Jack and Joe. No Snow at Houston.

In a paper on the Ivstory of the development of coasts, a German geologist, Dr. Fisher, reaches the conclusion that where coasts have been formed by the erosive action of waves and streams, terraces and flat surfaces are the prevailing characteristics, with semicirculnr bays of small radius on terraced coasts and large radius on flat coasts. Where other features exist, they are mainly attributable to subterranean movements and comparatively recent changes in the level of the land, some modifying effects having of course been wrought by the sea. lttmd Open.
