The expenses of the present special session of the State Legislature amount to about $2000 per day. What good?
The oldest Odd Fellow is dead again. His name this time is Gen. John Groesbeck, and he died in San Diego on Friday of last week, aged 83 years. He joined the order in 1822.
The Sheriff of Franklin county, Pa., has appointed his daughter as deputy. Fancy the feelings of the poor fellow when Deputy Ada lays her fair hand on his shoulder and says: "I have an attachment for you!"
G. W. Coffin has been elected Mayor of Santa Barbara. It has been said that the town has been dead for a long time, and now it is to be inferred that decomposition has set in.
At San Diego on Sunday last a young man was bitten by a rattlesnake and died from its effects. This is the second case of death from rattlesnake bite in that county. From the number of arrests for selling whisky to Indians we would suppose the antitote to be more plentiful.
A condensation of the testimony in the Sarah Althea Hill-Sharon case by the editor of the Police Gazette would make a valuable addition to the anti-Anthony Comstock literature of the day. Queer stuff is sometimes used in the manufacture of United States Senators.

SARCASTIC SOUTHERNERS.
The Cincinnati riot gave to the sarcastic Virginians an opportunity to "get in their work." John M. Sherman, whose committee is now investigating the Danville election riots and the alleged intimidation of negro voters, received from Richmond, Va., the following dispatch:
It is suggested here that the Richmond Blues and the detachment of Howitzers who quelled the Danville riot aid in suppressing the riot in your State. Upon proper application, Gov. Cameron might order them out.
In Congress, also, a little execuable sarcasm was indulged in. Nicola of Georgia introduced a resolution saying that for several days Cincinnati has been menaced by a mob of vigilance committees and Ku Klux organizations which have subverted the law of the land and disturbed public tranquility in repeated efforts to lynch certain persons confined in jail at Cincinnati charged with cringing, resulting in the loss of many lives and the destruction of much property, and requesting the Sherman committee of the Senate to inquire into the circumstances connected with the outrages, and report by bill or otherwise. No action was taken on the resolution, and none was expected. It merely served to emphasize the fact that had men, or criminally impulsive men, are to be found in the North as well as in the South—though the causes which furnish the excuse for a riot are essentially different in those two sections. Southern mobs do not resort to violence because juries fail to convict criminals; Northern mobs do not seek to influence voters by the shotgun method. Yet one mob is as bad as another.

Ed. GAZETTE—My time since, is rather limited, but sending you a few lines, for recollection of my short stay very-lively. I saw myself that the spirit of tarry to enter into the menners.

Roswell P. Powder of New York is a candidate for the Democratic nomination for President. If he is a self-constituted aspirant his bump of fellow esteem must comprise the greater part of his brain. If the Democratic party wants him it would be considerably difficult to locate its brain. If the people want him we are greatly mistaken.
The frequent cases of poisoning from the effects of eating canned goods has caused a bill to be introduced in the New York Legislature which if passed, will compel canneries to put the date of canning on the package. Thus the consumer will know whether he is purchasing fresh goods and the list of poisoning cases will diminish.
If the Legislature will pass a bill compelling assessors to value railroad property in the same way that they value the property of individuals, and another bill compelling corporations to pay their taxes under the same penalties as individuals, they will have accomplished all the legislation that is needed. And if business and not insurance their object, they can adjourn in a week.
The advocates of woman suffrage in Iowa have been set back two years. Two years ago they secured from the Legislature the submission of a constitutional amendment conferring the elective franchise upon women. It had then to be approved by the present Legislature. The Senate, by 26 to 24, did approve it three weeks ago, but now comes the House and rejects it by 50 to 45. So the reformers must begin anew.
The comments of certain Eastern papers upon the recent shock of earthquake felt by a few residents of San Francisco, seem to us the sublimity of ignorance or the perversion of facts. We, who have experienced the unpleasantness of thunder storms in the States, and are familiar with the "horrors" of the California earthquake, unanimously vote for a hundred of the latter boiled down into one as preferable to ten minutes of an ordinary thunder storm. More people cast of the Rockies are killed by lightning yearly than from the effects of earthquakes in California during the last century.

At Altoona, Pa., Mrs. L. U. Beach, wife of a prominent physician, was discovered in her room with her head almost severed from her body. The circumstances are so suspicious that the doctor has been arrested. It is said he has admitted to a member of the teamy that he committed the deed. Two large knives and a cleaver used for amputating purposes were found beside the victim.
The Postmaster General has received a dispatch stating that from and after the 15th mat., the Central Pacific Railway Company will run a fast mail train from Ogden west, covering the distance between Ogden and San Francisco in thirty-nine hours. This will complete the fast mail service between New York and San Francisco and save twenty-four hours between these points.
An effort has been made every year, and is appurgently stronger this year than ever, to repeal the law abolishing "double taxation" in Massachusetts, which was passed three or four years ago. Prior to that time a man who owned a $5,000 house and owed $3,000 upon it on a mortgage, was taxed upon the full value; and the man who held the mortgage was taxed for the amount represented by the mortgage.

What! Shall it be said that the base Japanese can beat Southern California vegetable growers? Or that their newspapers can exaggerate more than—than Los Angeles papers? Perish the thought! Therefore it is commanded that some one in this vicinity shall forthwith proceed to raise a turnip that shall eclipse the one described in the following paragraph, taken from a Japan paper:
It is a common saying among Japanese vegetable growers that one rabbit (daikon) grown at Miyashige, Owari, takes two men to carry it, and that two Satsuma turnips make a load for one pony. This sounds somewhat "tall," but so far as the Satsuma turnip is concerned the statement is little, if at all, exaggerated. One of these monster vegetables was presented to the Emperor the other day by the Shimadzu family. It measured over six feet in girth. The curious thing about these enormous turnips is that they are generally sound to the core, and that, when skillfully boiled or steamed, they are an exceedingly delicate and palatable aliment.
Superstitious Sarah.
San Francisco, April 7. In the Sharon divorce case, to-day George Gillard, employed at the Masonic cemetery, testified relative to Miss Hill having placed a package of Sharon's undergarments in a newly made grave. He said in the spring of 1883, Miss Hill, accompanied by Miss Brackett, called at the cemetery. Miss Hill said she had just had her fortune told, and in obedience to commands wanted to place a package in a newly made grave. She said the package contained flowers and rose leaves. The witness, who was personally acquainted with Miss Brackett, granted her request. Miss Hill went down a ladder into the grave and placed the package under the coffin shell. She insisted on witness accepting a silver dollar, saying if need not take it the charm wouldn't work. Witness said he was present when the package was exhumed. It was the same that had been put there by Miss Hill. Cross examination failed to disturb his testimony.

They All Know How.
A writer in the Portland, Me., Press says that he took a spider from his web, put him on a chip, and set him afloat on the quiet waters of the pond. "He walked all about the sides of the bark, surveying the situation very carefully, and when the fact that he was really afloat and about a yard from shore seemed to be fully comprehended, he projected for the nearest point of land. This point fairly settled upon, he immediately began to cast a web for it. He threw it as far as possible in the air and with the wind. It soon reached the shore and made fast to the spires of grass. Then he turned himself about and in true sailor fashion began to hand in hand over hand on his cable. Carefully he drew upon it until his bark began to move toward the shore. As it moved the faster, the faster he drew upon it, to keep his hawser taut, and from touching the water. Very soon he reached the shore, and quickly leaping to terra firma, he sped his way homeward. Thinking, then, that he might be a special expert, and an exception in that line of boatmanship to the rest of his companions, I tried several of them, and they all came to shore in a like manner."
Michael Young, 40 years old in Berkeley, was retired day evening, when he east bound emigrant train wheels, and his remains track over a space of fifty Coroner's wagon arrived, was informed that a maners had possessed him beef, which the unfortunate in his arm before the sword was found to be covered and gore.

Viticultural Suggestions.
St. Helena, April 6, 1884.
Ed. Gazette—My time, after 12 days absence, is rather limited, but I must not delay sending you a few lines, for the pleasure of the recollection of my short stay in Anaheim is still very lively. I saw enough to persuade myself that the spirit of progress will not tarry to enter into the midst of your vintners. The most intelligent of them are quietly substituting noble varieties of vines for the old-fashioned ones, that, however well responding in quantity of yield, will be followed by better ones that in your fertile region will not disappoint in that respect also. Examples, such as I have been told are given in your county, of hundreds of acres set out by one man with the commonest of vines we possess, should not be followed. Too soon the imprudent proprietor of such heresy will have to suffer the consequences. In the run of competition, and the future reserves us a fearful one in low qualities of grape juice, he will be the powerful grower whose wines will be sought after for their superior conditions, and it will be a pity if the small proprietor has to be in the same boat with the rich man whose vineyards produce third-grade wines or even second-grade ones.
The small crops of the last few years have created a state of things in the wine market that is altogether in favor of the grower. But without sharing the opinion of those fearful of an over-production in general, matters will have quite distinct an aspect when any amount of low-grade juice will fill California cellars. Let your readers be forewarned. He who would disguise the truth is not a public spirited friend. Looking around you, into all the counties, can you be blind to the fact that there is union of action, where there are viticultural clubs, there people take naturally to find out what is best suited to guard against the day of heavy production from new plantations that are being created everywhere. We have properly only the broad American continent for the consumption of our produce. To compete with the old world we must not make ourselves illusions, for the chief requirement, quality—the second, maturity in our wines, are a matter of time to fulfill. If enthusiastic writers point to the market in France where needs exist and will exist, chiefly of red wines, we must consider how we can meet the exaction of qualities such

Although exhorted to go without purse or scrip, they have all engaged transportation in palace cars.
The cable bridge which connected the Cliff House at San Francisco, with a rock 300 feet distant, was accidentally overturned Sunday afternoon. Some fifty were on it at the time.

Nine persons, including some young children, were seriously injured, some having their legs and ribs broken. Up to the present time it is not thought that any of their injuries are fatal.
