WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...FEERUARY 3, 1877. S. F. Allac Ben Truman is either smart or lucky. He wins another fight—captures the Los Angeles postoffice for a brother-in-law. It is the opinion of a New York lawyer that his profession contains more mean men than any other four professions, and he is going to become an editor. Junius Henri Browne says that handsome men are not the most likely to fascinate women. Mr. Browne's experience is singularly corroborative of our own. During the sickness of Prof. E. S. Carr, the Superintendent of Public Instruction, his wife, who is Deputy Superintendant, performs the important and onerous duties of the office in a highly satisfactory manner. A couple of "free lovers" have married in Boston by signing a contract, promising that they will try to control each other only by advice or persuasion; that they are equal partners; that neither church nor state has any right to interfere in their affairs; and that when they cease loving each other they will cancel the contract, if they desire. A bill is pending in the Nevada Legislature to provide, in the discretion of the magistrate, for cutting convict's hair to a uniform length, but the proposition hangs fire, on account of doubts of the working and judicial fate of the San Francisco law to the same effect. As in California, so in Nevada, the purpose of the law is to deprive Chinamen of their queues, when finally confined in a prison under sentence, and so deter their countrymen from committing crime for fear of losing their own characteristic queno. MANSFIELD Island, in Lake Erie, has been bought by a man who intends to stock it with black cats and kill their progeny for THE OUTLOOK. When we reviewed the achievements of the past year a month ago, the outlook for the coming season was overcast by the heavy cloud of doubt. The prevailing feeling was one of despair, and evidence was piled up mountain high to prove beyond doubt that a dry year was inevitable. We ventured to suggest at that time that all hope was not gone; that Jupiter Plavius might still give us a call—a call as welcome as unexpected by many. Such has been the case, and the rejoicing is as general as was the doubting. Our despondency has changed to joy, and as each successive grateful shower fell; so in corresponding ratio did the spirits of the farmers raise. In truth, this rejoicing is well timed and has a solid foundation, for the change effected in our prospects by the rainfall is great. A month ago, the prospect was decidedly blue; now, everything is colour de rose, or in other words, hunky. From every side come pouring in joyous news. Sheep, a few weeks ago, were worthless; last evening a sheep-man remarked in our hearing, "sheep are worth more than money now." The feed is sprouting bravely and all danger of scarcity for stock is past. Our farmers are also in great glee. Their land was generally in just the right shape to receive the supply of rain nature furnished, and pulture furnished, the supply in just the right manner. All apprehensions of a short crop are well nigh allayed, and the outlook is bright once more. A Western farmer made a tour of this district a few days ago, and on his return to Anaheim, said he had seen crops springing up around us that would be a credit to any district in the world, and further stated that he believed there was land right around Anaheim that had no equal in America for producing power and facility of cultivation. So we look cheerfully to seeing our beautiful valley once more tooming with plenty. Wool, and wheat, and corn, and barley, and fruit, and wine, and—but why go on? what is there not in our midst that human can wish for? At this writing every kind of produce has a fair start; the indications are that we shall be blessed with still more rain ere the Clerk REFLECTIONS ON THE MISE HILL. The Compromise Bill has houses by large majorities and dealt has signed it, it is now not profess to be constitutionally more than we are partisan people know that the opinions we are talking questions are, so far as I moderate. We believe that honest, true conviction of the American people when wure is practical, sensible and stitutional as any measure would meet the emergency. Compromise Bill was designed that the decision of the Confermer cheerfully endorsed by Convention, and that it will be produced good. It will allay se political rancor; it will promote peace, vitalize commerce National credit. And last, all, it will furnish to the wovine vining proof of the stability institutions and of the ability free people to adjust their pieces without a suicidal appeal. The duties of the Commissariatly pacific in their nature to overrule and set aside their theories, the prejudice and of violent partizanship, and moderately and firmly spectacle presented of them while laboring under the grievous most remarkable political history of our country, admirable self-control and patiently awaiting the action representatives, is without partisan speeches made in gestive of civil war, have one responsive voice has cope in answer to them. In the integrity, wisdom patriotism of Congress has been left entirely in its action; no violent defluence members pro or con- MANSFIELD Island, in Lake Erie, has been bought by a man who intends to stock it with black cats, and kill their progeny for their fur. He will feed them at first on fish caught off the shore by men who will live on the island; but after the enterprise is well started he will utilize the meat of the slaughtered cats as food for the living cats. We also read that a Georgian is making an extensive business of raising dogs, tanning their hides, and selling the leather for glove making and other purposes. CAPT. JAMES B. EADS, who is about to receive an installment of $500,000 for his work of opening the month of the Mississippi, is in his fifty-seventh year, and a native of Lawrenceburg, Ind. At a very early age he evinced a strong taste for machinery, and at eleven constructed without any instruction a miniature engine that worked perfectly with steam. He has struggled upward to the possession of a large private fortune, excellent health and thoroughly American taste, passing such grades as apple peddler, clerk, Mississippi wrecker, proprietor of the first glass blowing establishment in the West, and builder of twenty-seven iron-clad gun and mortar boats. AMERICAN Colonels in the service of the Khodive of Egypt receive as pay $230 per month, with allowances for quarters and duty in the provinces. Contracts are made for five years, with the right of renewal on the part of the Government. Traveling expenses from the United States are paid, and in case of an honorable discharge, the return expenses, with six months full pay, are granted. If an officer is compelled to resign on account of the climate, he receives two months pay mileage home. In case of death from ordinary causes, the widow or family receives one year's full pay; but if an officer is killed in battle, or is wounded so that death ensues, his widow receives a pension equal to half his pay, which is continued until her death' or remarriage, when it is divided among the children until the boys become of age and the girls marry. An oath of fidelity is exacted, and all American officers are obliged to renounce the protection of our diplomatic agents and trust to the Egyptian tribunals. THE Mark Lane Express, the organ of the British corn trade, says that farming as a business is certainly at as low an ebb as any other production can be, and that those farmers will be fortunate who do not find themselves at the end of the agricultural crop springing up around us that would be a credit to any district in the world, and further stated that he believed there was land right around Anaheim that had no equal in America for producing power and facility of cultivation. So we look cheerfully to seeing our beautiful valley once more towing with plenty. Wool, and wheat, and corn, and barley, and fruit, and wine, and—but why go on? what is there not in our midst that human can wish for? At this writing every kind of produce has a fair start; the indications are that we shall be blessed with still more rain ere the Clerk of the Weather closes his office for the season, and we confidently look forward to a season of unalloyed prosperity. And while we hug ourselves in our joy we can also look abroad and gather more comfort from what we see there. Everywhere are indications of a revival in trade. Throughout New England and the Eastern and Middle States a more brisk state of business is visible. The markets are assuming a healthier tone, and renewed activity is the rule. The National credit is steadily improving; the credit of America is second only to that of England itself in the London money market, and equals her's in other Continental money centres. Gold is steadily declining—and the question of specie payments likely to be soon practically settled without legislation through the genuine merit and wealth of the country. The admirable temper shown by the people in the Presidential muddle has done much to produce this result. It has reawakened the confidence of capitalists and loosed the hoarded millions that have so long lain idle and which will now soon be in active circulation, again restoring health to the body of the nation and scattering benefits throughout the length and breadth of the land. Need we point out the benefits California, the producer, will derive from the increased activity in trade? Need we suggest that active trade means employed labor and active demand for produce of all kinds? Employment to the masses meaning demand for all kinds of produce, which again signifies increased remuneration and quick returns to the producer, boiled down means prosperity to California in general and Southern California in particular. So we welcome our prospects with pleasure for our outlook is bright, and we congratulate our subscribers and readers that they are residents of so favored a land—a land literally flowing with milk and honey—the honey of our mountains and the milk of our rich valleys. The Carlist chieftain, Jergon, who was recently executed at Pampeluna, in Spain, is said to have been guilty of at least twenty murders. Jergon's career of crime began in January, 1873, with an unprovoked crime. In April of the same year, on the 10th day, he stabbed, for the last of blood, a lame old man, named Pedro Muneta, in the neighborhood of Murieta. The old man was a harmless cripple. On the same day, his hand reeking with blood, he met a man named Juan Mamá and killed him at once throwing him crops springing up around us that would be a credit to any district in the world, and further stated that he believed there was land right around Anaheim that had no equal in America for producing power and facility of cultivation.

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| | The Mark Lane Express, the organ of the British corn trade, says that farming as a business is certainly at as low an ebb as any other production can be, and that those farmers will be fortunate who do not find themselves at the end of the agricultural year poorer than at the beginning, as too many of them did last year. There are two alternatives—reduction of price of labor or reduction of rent. That rent will come down unless farming business improves there can be no doubt. But even now land only pays from 2½ to three per cent. on its value. This problem will have to be solved pretty soon. The situation grows more serious for all parties. Farms are being thrown up all over the country, and there is a loud and general outcry of the extent to which tenants are sacrificed to the sporting mania of their landlords. The English Laborer says there are plenty of farms on which the damage done by ground game is nearly equal to the whole labor bill. The gilded youth of to-day had better make the most of their battles this season, for it does not look as if they would have a great many more. Col. W. W. Hollister, of Santa Barbara, who in our opinion has gone clean daft on the Chinese labor question, has published the following card in the Santa Barbara Press, which we reprint as being something unique: GLENN ANNIE, Jan. 25, 1877. I have written what you consider a hard letter on labor. I am right and you are wrong, as events will prove. In view of the hard times and apprehended harder times, and with a hope of doing something to lessen them, I hereby make this proposition to all who are owing me and whose notes of indebtedness I hold: I will deduct twenty-five per cent. of the interest due for all payments made to me from this date until the first day of May next ensuing. It is notorious that I have loaned money for the last ten years at a less rate of interest than any other man known in Southern California. The motives prompting me to this I leave to your judgment, trusting to your generous appreciation of my efforts to aid in building up the country. Give us lower-priced labor, a lessened cost of living follows, and capital meets you on this lower plan. W. W. Hollister. Clerical Joke—Our dispatches yesterday morning included an item announcing the death at Buffalo, New York, of Rev. Dr. Lord, a Presbyterian clergyman, noted for his talent and eccentricity. It is reported of him by a Sacramento correspondent of the Record-Union that, the friends of his allianced having objected to his union with her, he and the lady concluded to wed without their permission. When her absence from home was noted there was found addressed to her relatives a note from her chosen husband which explained matters briefly as follows: "The Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord." REFLECTIONS ON THE COMPRO-MISE BILL. The Compromise Bill has passed both Houses by large majorities and as the President has signed it, it is now a law. We do not profess to be constitutional lawyers any more than we are partisan politians, and we know that the opinions we express on political questions are, so far as lies in our power, moderate. We believe that we express the honest, true conviction of the great bulk of the American people when we say the measure is practical, sensible and as nearly constitutional as any measure could be that would meet the emergency for which this Compromise Bill was designed. We believe that the decision of the Commission will be cheerfully endorsed by Congress and the Nation, and that it will be productive of unqualified good. It will allay sectional strife and political rancor; it will promote the interests of peace, vitalize commerce, and improve the National credit. And last, but greatest of all, it will furnish to the world a most convincing proof of the stability of Republican institutions and of the ability of a great and free people to adjust their political differences without a suicidal appeal to arms. The duties of the Commission are essentially pacific in their nature. It is designed to overrule and set aside the doctrines and theories, the prejudice and unsuperpulousness of violent partizanism, and to act calmly, moderately and firmly. We believe the spectacle presented of the American people while laboring under the great excitement of the most remarkable political contest in the history of our country, still acting with admirable self-control and moderation, and patiently awaiting the action of their chosen representatives, is without parallel. Violent partisan speeches made in the House, suggestive of civil war, have fallen dead. Not one responsive voice has come from the people in answer to them. Perfect confidence in the integrity, wisdom, moderation and patriotism of Congress has been the rule Congress has been left entirely untramiled, in its action; no violent demonstrations, to influence members pro or con, have been made; MUSCAT vs. MISSION. While advocating the establishment of an Alden drisr in Anaheim, we repeatedly urged upon vineyardists the desirability of setting out or grafting a better class vine to replace the Mission. The proper time for grafting and setting out vines is rapidly approaching, and we renew our advice in such season that vineyardists may have ample opportunity to study the matter over and see whether it is not to their advantage to follow the lead already set them by some of our most astute wine growers. We are heartily in favor of seeing the cultivation of the Mission grape entirely suspended in our district and that vine replaced by the Muscator some other grape its equal in value. And we advocate the adoption of this course because we are convinced it will be of direct benefit to the vineyardists, and so indirectly to our community. Briefly stated, the position is this: The Mission grape is an inferior article to the Muscat in every sense of the word; inferior as a fruit for table use, as a fruit for curing and as a fruit for wine making. It occupies just as much space and time in cultivation, and yields less fruit. And last, but most important of all, the Mission grape is only worth half the price that the Muscat will bring, and is by comparison a drug in the market. These facts are admitted by everyone and yet so difficult is it to get any set of men out of a beaten track that a large area is under cultivation in our district producing Mission grapes when it might as well be set out in Muscats. It is to induce those gentlemen to benefit themselves, that we call their attention to the facts in connection with viniculture, since we hope it is only from a lack of knowledge that they err. Wine made from Muscat grapes is immeasurably superior to that made from the Mission, and as a natural consequence commands a correspondingly better price and readier sale. For curing purposes, there is no comparison between the two. Driers eagerly accept the Muscatus offered them, while they look askant at the inferior Mission grape. As a table fruit, the same relative positions are maintained. But we wish to call particular attention to the advantages to be derived from vinegar for dripping or curving those who come many miles, as formerly from sickness, misfortune, want of work, etc., run short of means until have to beg—but not willingly, as I readily believe, for nearly all that I have met are ready and anxious to work. Some of the tales they tell are pitiful. The truest help we can render them, it seemed more after satisfying hunger, is to put them into way of helping themselves. It is work and not merely food gratitiously bestowed that gives them the independence they crave. Let us act on the principle that charity begins at home and with our own race. Cannot the ladies, as a part of the programme, organize a labor bureau or something of the sort, for the purpose of giving our own race work, wherever it is possible, instead of to a Mongolian? January 31st, 1877. The Majave and Independence Road. Some time ago we advertised to the fact that a project had been formed to build a railway from Mojave to Independence. Detailed examination revealed the commercial merits of the plan, and stock was largely taken in by our citizens at the start. Further inquiry showed the project to be a very money-making one, and all the stock was at once subscribed and an organization effected. Mr J. E. Hollenbeck was elected President of the Company, Mr M. J. Newmark, Vice-President, Mr M. S. Patrick, President of the Commercial Bank, Secretary. Having thus procured the pecuniary guarantee for the construction of the road, the next thing was to interview the magnates of the Southern Pacific Railway, to ascertain what terms could be made regarding freights, etc. The Messrs. Colton and Crocker, on being approached, immediately announced their approbation of the project, said they would build the road themselves. They would not only build the road, but they would extend it into Southern Utah, where there were a number of excellent coal mines. They regarded the project as an eligible one in every respect; and just so soon as the large force at work pushing the Southern Pacific from Indian Wells to Yuma should be through with that job, they intended to wheel them around and put them on the hundred miles which separate Mojave from Independence. They were ready to build, they said, long before Senator Jones or anybody else would be. We are thus warranted in looking for very considerable railroad activity in this section shortly. A railroad project is hardly outlined before capitalists stand ready to catch it up and carry it to completion. the most remarkable political contest in the history of our country, still acting with admirable self-control and moderation, and patiently awaiting the action of their chosen representatives, is without parallel. Violent partisan speeches made in the House, suggestive of civil war, have fallen dead. Not one responsive voice has come from the people in answer to them. Perfect confidence in the integrity, wisdom, moderation and patriotism of Congress has been the rule. Congress has been left entirely untrammined in its action; no violent demonstrations, to influence members pro or con, have been made; all over the land serenity and moderation have prevailed. A lesson may be learned from this, that it is tantalizing in its simplicity—a lesson so clear that any one may master it, and yet so forebable as to command the respect and attention of all. It is simply this: That the American people are again united; that sectional strife and hatred engender by the late war are to be henceforward forever barred from entering into our political contests, and woe be to him who attempts to resuscitate them for party purposes. In the action of Congress in this affair, and the endorsement the people accord it, violent partisans may read their notice to quit; may learn that they must change their line of action or prepare to vacate their seats in Congress. The defeat of Logan in Illinois is the first warning, and other examples may soon be expected. This state of feeling is an earnest that in future the Nation may look forward to sessions devoted to real legislation and pure statesmanship. That instead of Congress occupying itself with making buncombe speeches about evils which exist only in the imagination, we may expect real civil service reform and purity in politics. The Republican party will in all probability be once more guided and controlled by more conservative men—men worthy to be classed with Sumner and Chase, with Lincoln and Seward. The Democracy will be held up to their promises of reform should they be the successful party, and they must apply themselves rigorously to the task before them, if they would merit or receive the public confidence. As to the constitutionality of the measure, we can only say that, where one-half of the great lawyers say the Compromise Bill is constitutional and the other half that it is not, we will not pretend to decide. We know it is expedient, and as such welcome it. We do not believe in the divine right of the constitution any more than we believe in the divine right of kings. To say that the constitution is inviolable is nonsense. In a Republic the will of the people is the best constitution, and to set up the constitution against their will is, so to speak, the most unconstitutional measure of all. To oppose the will of the people with the constitution is equivalent to setting up the will of a king against the will of the people. We do not for one moment believe that either the framers of the constitution or the people who endorse it ever contemplated that it should be used as a weapon whose wish to oppose the most remarkable political contest in the history of our country, still acting with admirable self-control and moderation, and patiently awaiting the action of their chosen representatives, is without parallel.

In The Idaho Legislature,a man regarded as an attempt To prevent opeations of cattle thieves,a bill has Mayfair, the new London weekly, thus contrasts Gladstone with Disraeli: "Lord Beaconfield has abandoned the festooned chains, the resplendent waistcoats and the variegated coats which he was in times past wont to flaunt an astonished sun. But he is scrupulously neat in his dress, and at times sports the festive boquet. He has small, white, plump hands, which are a great comfort to him at critical epochs, when the political sky is overcast, and Mr. Jenkins is denouncing him from the corner seat below the gangway opposite. Then the Premier feasts his eyes on the white plumpness of his hands, turning them over tenderly from side to side, and feels that all is not lost yet. Mr. Gladstone has long, brown nervous hands as befits a woodman, and he aggravates their unlovliness of form by wearing wrinkled gloves a size and a half too large. The right honorable gentleman would certainly admire the beauty of the human hand if displayed in statuary or painting, or possibly, though this conjecture is advanced with diffidence, by a woman. But a hand at the end of the arm of a man is for Mr. Gladstone simply a piece of machinery to do work with, to fall trees, or to hold the pen that produces pamphlets. Mr. H. D. Barrows, of Los Angeles, is a gentleman possessed of a large fund of common sense, and has the additional gift of being able to put his thoughts on paper in a manner so clear that he who runs may read. The following extremely practical article, published in the Express of Wednesday, is from the pen of Mr. Barrows: Editors' Express:—Will the gentle ladies, who in the goodness of their hearts are trying to organize relief for destitution in our community, regard a practical suggestion from one who wishes them God-speed in their work of mercy? Are they not daily appealed to by their own Cancasian race for work, for bread, for something to eat, for the sake of the good Lord—while hundreds of well-fed, and well-paid Mongolian heathens find a constant employment in our midst—even in our very homes? Is there a family in this town that is not called upon every day to feed the poor, who would gladly do any kind of work if they could get it, for even their board? Which of all our Christian hearted families that daily gives bread and welcome to the needy cannot go a step further—even at the cost of some self-denial—and let one of their own race fill a Chinaman's place? Is it creditable to our civilization that so many of our own race and blood are compelled to beg for bread, whilst an alien race is permitted to narp the places they would gladly, and in time, might acceptably fill? We talk about the "tramp nuisance"—is it not in reality, "Chinese nuisance"? Is not the latter largely the cause of the former? My suggestion to the ladies—to all who are charitably inclined that way—is, not merely to give bread to the worthy, who are in want—they do that already; but to give them something to do—even if they have to remand a slick, well-fed Mongolian back to the hospitable care of the company that owns him! It is a terrible thing to have to tramp and beg. Many of us who came to California in early times, have had some experience in that line. But in those times, before the Chinese blight had settled on the land, we felt, if we had health, in a sense independent, because there were so many avocations open to Americans. Now, so many are filled by Chinamen. We invite immigration of our own countrymen? Of bill has been introduced which provides that butchers shall keep a daily record of all the cattle daily slaughtered by them; the names of the parties from whom they bought, and that all persons slaughtering cattle shall keep the hides ready for inspection, without mutilation, for thirty days. Early American advertisements were often curious. Here is one in 1808: "Much Wantel—a neat, well behaved female, to do kitchen work in a small family at Charles-town, near Boston. She may pray and sing hymns, but not over the fish kettle, may go to meeting, but not to believe in the divinity of Elias Smith; nor belong to the whining congregation of midnight worshippers. Enquire at the Repertory office, near Boston." The race of Irish wolf dogs is believed to be now extinct. The last genuine specimens of these magnificent animals were in 1806 possessed by De Quincy's friend, the late Marquis of Sligo, who owned hundreds of thousands of acres in the wild, storm-beaten county of Mayo. They were to the old arms of Ireland what the lion and unicorn are to England; supporters; wearing collars with the mottoe, "Gentle when stroked, fierce when provoked." Philadelphia Times: Bob Blaine, the brother of J. G., is to take the place of Peck, the ousted Chief Clerk of the Patent Office. The appointment may have some significance as a straw. Peek was an appointee of Duell, the late Commissioner, who was Conkling's man. After the Cincinnati Convention, Bob Blaine, who held a clerical position under the Senate, was dismissed by Chief Clerk Gorham, who is Conkling's man. Now the brother of Blaine who was ousted by Conkling's man is elevated by Zach Chandler into the seat left vacant by the ousted Conkling man. A meeting of prominent bankers and merchants was held at the Clearing House in New York last Friday to support the movement for arranging a settlement between defaulting Southern States and their creditors. William Cullen Bryant presided. Resolutions were adopted deploring the existing condition of the defaulting States, expressing sympathy with them, recognizing the impossibility of a full liquidation of their indebtedness, and recommending a committee of disinterested arbitrators between the States and bondholders; the arbiters being five bankers—George S. Coe, J. D. Vermilye, B. Sherman, B. B. Carneges and Enoch Pratt, with power to add to the number. A woman with a bees' nest in her hair would probably be a lively spectacle; but Joaquin Miller tries, in the Independent, to make such a thing romantic, as follows: If all the world a garden were, And women were but horses; And men were bees than housed there Through all the summer hours; Oh! I would hum the garden through, For honey; till I came to you. Then I should have within your hair, Is sun and gold together; And I should hide in glory there, Through all the changeful weather. BY TELEGRAPH. San Francisco News. SAN FRANCISCO, January 30. William Jameson, about six years of age, son of George Jameson, saloon keeper at the corner of Brannan and First streets, died about ten o'clock last night from the effects of an accident received a few hours previously. He had been flying his kite from the top of a shed in the rear of his father's place of business when he fell a distance of 16 feet through an open skylight and sustained a fracture of his skull and other injuries. Admitted to Supreme Court WASHINGTON, January 30. R. M. Widney, of Los Angeles, was today admitted as a Counselor of the Supreme Court, as was also C. H. Hempstead, of Salt Lake. Gathering at Washington. NEW YORK, January 28. The Horald's Washington special says that great crowds are gathering in Washington to witness the counting of the electoral vote. The hotels are full and every train brings accessions to the throng of sight-seers. Many will doubtless wait over until the inauguration ceremony in March, so that the capital bids fair to present a lively aspect during the coming month. Betting on Hayes. NEW YORK, January 30. The Tribune's Washington dispatch says that betting men are now offering heavy odds that the election of Hayes will be announced by the Commission. One bet was made of $500 against $200; another bet, with odds of 2 to 1, was given up to the Hayes party, the Tilden man paying one-half of his stakes to be let off. Tilden Conferring with his Friends. NEW YORK, January 30. The Times says that Tilden, O'Connor, Pelton, and Richard Schell had a conference to-day at the Astor House. Several others, lawyers and politicians, were also present, including Gen. Fremont. The result, if any, is unknown. Justice Davis Declines. WASHINGTON-JAN. 30. Associate Justice Davis, as soon as the bill passed both Houses constituting the Electoral vote Commission, notified his associates and other friends that in the event of his being offered the fifth place in the Judicial branch of the Commission, that such a job. Another remarkable set of this jurist was to hold his chambers in the city of Newark, pretending to hold them in Texas, where his Judicial District is. This was done in order to accomplish the dishonorable transfer of the transcontinental railroad. For this act Bradley should have been impeached. We should add here that previous to his appointment to the Bench of the Supreme Court he had been a railroad lawyer, and employed by the Camden & Amboy Company. Yet he was no stranger to Cal. Tom Scott. His skill in drawing legislative bills whose provisions would bear construction two or more ways was highly esteemed by his employers. It is also worthy of recollection that he was first President of the New Jersey Mutual Life Insurance Company, which has just gone up in disastrous explosion. It is not surprising that the Republicans should think the chances of Hayes's election very much improved by the selection of Bradley. He is the man who is to make the President, and from his decision there appears to be no escape; except by the united concurrence and almost impossible action of both Houses of Congress. Joe Bradley our President makes! To this complex we have come at last. The Times continues its hostility to the Electoral Bill. Suicide. LINCOLN, Jan. 31 Herr Barth, the German explorer engaged in surveying the Portuguese possessions in Africa for the government of Portugal, committed suicide in Loanda, while delirious with fever. Herr Moher, another German explorer who belonged to the expedition which was searching for the resources of the Congo river, is dead. A Start'in g Statement. WASHINGTON, Feb. I. The Committee on Powers, etc., to-day recalled Maddux, who read an explanation of his refusal to respond to the question yesterday. His refusal was because of his disinclination to commit a breach of faith. He asked for delay so that Governor Wells might make a full statement; but as the Governor did not do an, the witness was now ready to answer, and said: Before Governor Wells wrote the letter to him, he had had a conversation with the Governor in regard to the political situation and the difficulties with the Returning Board. The Governor proposed that the witness should go to Washington and explain the situation. He concluded he would write a general letter to witness, as confidential, and he also wrote another letter to a friend in Washington. When witness arrived at Wells's office next morning, one letter was finished, and he was writing the other. Witness brought away the letter to him. The other was New York, January 30. The Times says that Tilden, O'Connor, Pelton, and Richard Schell had a conference to-day at the Astor House. Several others, lawyers and politicians, were also present, including Gen. Fremont. The result, if any, is unknown. Justice Davis Declines. Washington-Jan. 30. Associate Justice Davis, as soon as the bill passed both Houses constituting the Electoral vote Commission, notified his associates and other friends that in the event of his being offered the fifth place in the Judicial branch of the Commission, that under no circumstances would he allow his name to be used in this connection. He considers it indiscalable after being elected Senator, to take a position which might be open to criticism, and refuses absolutely to reconsider his decision. The four members of the Supreme Court required by the Electoral Act to serve upon the Judicial branch of the Commission, was this afternoon each furnished with a certified copy of the Act by the Secretary of State. They will to-morrow meet and select the fifth Associate, in accordance with its provisions. San Francisco Markets. San Francisco, Jan. 31.

Financial men here scout the story that twenty millions or any large sum has been transferred from here to New York, to operate in Western Union or any other stock. They say that money was never more plentiful here than at present. The Cashier of the Bank of California says that D. O. Mills is in New York on business for the bank, and states positively that he has no connection with any such pool nor has any other person associated with that bank. Henry, the brother of James Keane, denies that his brother has any connection with the movement or has had six millions or a tenth of that amount transferred to New York. He characterizes the story, so far as he is concerned, as sheer nonsense. Piper Will Contest. San Francisco, Jan. 30. Congressman Piper, of this district, has written a letter to Horace Davis, Congressman-elect, stating his intention of contesting the election, on the ground that Davis received 9,000 fraudulent votes, the votes having been cast once on certificates of enrollment and in the names of voters not entered on the Great Register.

The Kansas Senatorial Election. Topeka Jan. 31. Senator Harvey withdraw from the Senatorial canvas at the last ballot yesterday. The ballot resulted: Plumb, 57; Osborne 41; He asked for delay so that Governor Wells might make a full statement; but as the Governor did not do so, the witness was now ready to answer, and said: Before Governor Wells wrote the letter to him, he had had a conversation with the Governor in regard to the political situation and the difficulties with the Returning Board. The Governor proposed that the witness should go to Washington and explain the situation. He concluded he would write a general letter to witness, as confidential, and he also wrote another letter to a friend in Washington. When witness arrived at Wells's office next morning, one letter was finished, and he was writing the other. Witness brought away the letter to him. The other was sealed and addressed to Senator West, but had never been delivered. Governor Wells said his life was in danger, as he had a very difficult job on hand, and did not see how he could get through with it. Wells stated that he would like to serve his party by making the return in favor of Hayes, but would not take the risk unless paid for it. The majority was much too heavy for him to handle, and he didn't know where to commence to throw out. He said that probably he would throw out the vote of New Orleans on the ground, as the witness thought he meant, of necessity. He asked him to go to Washington to see influential men and obtain protection for him; also, to see if he could not get the required money to satisfy him. Wells said he ought to have $1,000,000. Witness showed to the President and Secretary Cameron the two letters addressed to him by Governor Wells. He told the Secretary that Governor Wells wanted money, but the Secretary declined to have anything to do with the matter. The money Governor Wells required was to protect him. The programme was that the vacancy in the Returning Board should be filled and that Governor Wells should resign in anger on that account. Witness did not know that there was any special arrangement between him and Gov. Wells about the details, but witness was required to submit a plan which would be acceptable. Witness having been interrogated relative to the telegram sent to Gov. Wells under the assumed name of C.M. Calvert, said it was understood between him and Governor Wells that if the Representatives at Washington failed to agree, then the witness was to use his own judgment in the negotiation and to give the returns as they were made in New Orleans, and that he should then commence second negotiations. The word "hold" in the telegram to Gov. Wells signified he was to hold the returns in such situation as to make them available at will. The first negotiation failed. Gov. Wells stated to witness that he wanted for himself and Anderson at least $200,000 apiece, and a smaller sum for the darkeys or negroes of the Returning Board. When witness returned to New Orleans he had a conversation with Wells about the failure of the negotiations. Witness received a dispatch from Colonel Pickett, saying the negotiations had failed when Governor Wells suggested to witness to endeavor to make some arrangements with the Democrats. Witness made an effort in that direction, but did not succeed. The idea of witness, from what Gov. Wells said, that he would throw the votes to the bestadvantage in order to produce a certain result, which depend on circumstances. Report on the Florida Election. Washington Jan. 31. The Committee on the Florida election reported to night. They say it is difficult to conceive of a more wanton attempt to defeat the will of the people and impose on the State and country, officers who are not their choice than is here presented. The fact has been judicially ascertained that the persona named upon the face of the returns as having... President Grant thanked. HARTMORD, Jan. 31. The House, on motion of a Democratic member, adopted unanimously a resolution tendering the thanks of the general assembly to the President for his approval of the electoral bill, and cordially endorsing his message.

The New York "Sun" on Bradley the Fifth Commissioner. NEW YORK, Jan. 31. The following are extracts from a remarkable article in the Sun: It is remarkable that the New York Senator who, on discussing this bill, devoted so much of his argument to the danger which would result from entrusting the vast power of deciding the election of President to one man, the President of the Senate, did not perceive his inconsistency in entrusting the same, as this bill virtually does, to one man—the fifth Judge. To guard against the imaginary evil, a great positive mistake has been committed. The Supreme Court has been degraded; the Senate and the House have abashed themselves; usages, as time-honored as that which forbids the third term, have been disregarded; one man power has been dangerously exalted; the Constitution has received a stab. Safety, peace and honor lay in the beaten track. Brave men and statesmen should not have frightened from it by a shadow. In another editorial the Sun says: So the fifth of the Electoral arbitrators is to be Judge Eradley, of New Jersey, Davis having for personal reasons, refused to serve. Bradley is a thoroughgoing Republican, and his appointment makes eight Republicans and seven Democrats in the Board. His antecedents are interesting. Bradley was appointed to the Supreme Court by Grant for the well understood purpose of reversing the previous decision of the court against the constitutionality of the Legal Tender act. In that case he did what was expected of him; but this neither indoanded to his glory nor to that of the President who selected him for endeavor to make some arrangement with the Democrata. Witness made an effort in that direction, but did not succeed. The idea of witness, from what Gov. Wells said, that he would throw the votes to the best advantage in order to produce a certain result, which would depend on circumstances. Report on the Florida Election. WASHINGTON, Jan. 21. The Committee on the Florida election reported to-night. They say that it is difficult to conceive of a more wanton attempt to defeat the will of the people and impose on the State and country, officers who are not their choice than is here presented. The fact has been Judicially ascertained that the person named upon the face of the returns as having received the highest number of votes were elected, and the Committee submit that, in order to ascertain who were chosen Presidential electors, the House has only to look upon the face of the record and figures which determine that result. The Committee are of the opinion that the fact has been judicially determined that the Hayes electors did not receive a majority of the votes cast at the election, and in this is involved a denial of their right to cast their votes as Presidential electors, and no determination other than that which has been made by the Supreme court of Florida, is required to show that the act of these electors in casting their votes for President and Vice-President is illegal and void. All papers before the Canvassing Board, applying to them, and all the statutes of Florida will give 90 majority for Tilden and Hendricks beyond dispute. The South Carolina Muddle. COLUMBIA, S.C., Feb. I. Gov. Hampton having granted a pardon to Armiza Roaborough, a colored prisoner in the jail at Chester county; and the sheriff refusing to release the prisoner on the ground that Hampton was not the Governor of the State, Judge J. T. Backey issued a writ of habeas corpus on the petition of the prisoner, and yesterday the case was argued. Judge Mackey deided Hampton to be the legal Governor. The Sheriff's counsel promptly appealed to the Supreme Court. Postal Changes. WASHINGTON, Feb. I. The postal service between San Jose and New Almaden has been increased to a tri-weekly, commencing February 15. The Department has also ordered the re-establishment of mail service by the Coast route between Los Angeles and San Francisco, but makes it tri-weekly instead of daily as formerly. The service by railroad is continued. The postmaster at Kingston, Presno county, having resigned, and no recommendations for any successor being at hand, the office is in danger of being discontinued for want of an applicant. The salary is $200 per annum.
