WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...NOV. 22, 1884 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. Cholera unabated still rages in Paris and Westward slowly wends its way. Next summer the savants say it will reach the Western Hemisphere. Latest returns indicate the election of Henley, Democrat, for Congress over Carothers in the Second Congressional District by a majority of not far from one hundred and fifty votes. The next Senate of the United States will contain forty-two Republicans and thirty-four Democrats—a Republican gain of two and will constitute a wholesome check upon any unwholesome act of an opposition Executive. State Mineralologist Henry G. Hanks in his annual report announces a great increase in the output of gold and silver for the year ending May 15th, of which the mines of Southern California produced the greater part of the silver. P. T. Barnum, the irrepressible, a few weeks before election declared that if Cleveland should be elected he would sell his property 25 per cent, less than its assessed value. The great showman and advertiser now publishes a card announcing his readiness to keep his word. A feature of the recent convention of cattle men at St Louis was the cowboy band of Fort Dodge, Kansas, twenty men strong, and in full frontier costume. They played several selections during the morning session and elicited great applause. The leader wields, in place of a baton, his silver-mounted six-shooter, nearly a foot long. The speech of Blaine in response to a serenade at his home in Anguista is severely criticised and denounced by the Democratic press as bitter, mischievous and sectional, calculated to stir up bad blood and political strife, while the Republican papers declare it trenchant, incisive and able. THE SENATORIAL STRUGGLE. The distinguished trio of gentlemen who are aspiring for the high and honorable position of U. R. Senator from California have each a strong following of friends and admirers, and the struggle for the prize is going to be a pretty one, as the phrase in. It looks at the present time as if there might be witnessed in the next Legislature one of those deadlocks, when the Senatorial election comes up, that have been not uncommon of late in the Legislatures of other States. It is to be hoped, however, that this will not be the case, as a prolonged and stubborn contest is not conducive to that harmonious feeling which is essential to party discipline and success. Sargent, Ketee and Perkins are the men from whom the choice is to be made. Sargent has political experience, money and the backing of the railroad, whatever that is. The railroad is the bugaboo of our politics. They take, or are said to take, a deep interest in every political fight. They probably do nothing of the kind; but "the railroad" is a very convenient thing to kill off a candidate. It may be accepted as a fact, however, that if the railroad corporations are really in this Senatorial fight, Sargent is the map for whom they will use their influence. Ketee is a man of brains and did noble service for his party at the recent election. He has admirers in plenty, but there are no powerful influences at work for him. He is one of a number of men who never attain the eminence which they are really fitted for—who are constantly outstripped in the race for fame and position by inferior men. The Republican party in California probably never put forward for Governor a better or abler man than Ketee, but the political ill luck which attaches to him defeated his ambition. Ex-Governor Perkins leads in the race, and we are glad of it. Everybody who knows Mr. Perkins likes him, and he has more hearty good wishes from the masses than probably any other public man in California. He is a thorough Californian, takes a personal pride in the advancement of the State and is more directly interested in its prosperity and in the advancement of all its industries than either of his opponents. With Mr. Perkins as a Senator, Southern California would be especially well looked after. As one of the proprietors of the line of steamers which visit every harbor on the coast, he is directly and especially interested University Seed Distribution- Seeds of all kinds named below will be distributed by the College of Agriculture at the University of California to the citation of California. Package to the amount indicated above accompany every application. Beyond this no charge is made. Permitting should give their second and third choices, if the kind first named is all good or say that the enclosed stamps are to be turned after deducting postage on the return letter. The announcement of selections plants to be distributed will be made later. This distribution is made for the purpose ascertaining the adaptation to climate and practical value of the several kinds, in different climates and soils of the State; and persons receiving them are requested to port results, whether success or failure, and if the latter, from what apparent causes. All applications are to be addressed to ProE. W. Hilgard, Berkeley, Alamada Ca., C. The following cereal grains are in one pound packages; postage, 20 cents each. Six-rowed Barley: A very different type from that commonly grown on this corn and we believe that for some localities and uses it is much to be preferred. The range and size of the grains in the head are such as to show six distinct rows, instead of the crowded appearance, which makes our common barley pass as four-rowed. The straw is of only moderate length, strong, and very erect, making it less liable to lodge tha most other varieties. The yield is among the highest that we have recorded in our garden experiments. Last year, while Colorado, we found that this type of barley had been accepted as best suited to that evaded plateau region. Our stock was raised from seed secured in the Brenner collection, imported from Europe, where the grain is also particularly valued for mountain lands. We commend this grain for general trial, and in particular for the northern valleys of the State. Rice, Sprat, or Battle-door Barley: Some respects there is a close resemblance between this variety and the last, as in its upright straw, heads of even hight, and spreading beards. Straw very short; has two rows'of grain in a very short head so that the beards stand in the form of battle-door. The grain is said to swell when cooked, as rice does. The yield is fair, and the hardy plant adapted to mountain re-region—an interesting variety. The speech of Blaine in response to a sermon at his home in Augusta is severely criticised and denounced by the Democratic press as bitter, mischievous and sectional, calculated to stir up bad blood and political strife, while the Republican papers declare it trenchant, incisive and able, as striking the key note under which the party will march to victory four years hence. Thus colored glasses, in a political sense, distort the vision of patriots. M. H. De Young, proprietor of the San Francisco Chronicle, was shot by Adolph Spreckles, son of Claus Spreckles, on Wednesday evening. Three shots were fired; the first struck De Young in the arm, the second hit him in the shoulder, when he fell, and while down a third shot was fired which would have doubtless proved fatal but for a bundle of books which De Young hold in his arms. The attempt at assassination was caused by a conceived greivance against the Chronicle for the publication of an article criticising the action of Claus Spreckles in his management of the Hawaiian Commercial Sugar Company. The wounds are considered serious, but latest accounts announce De Young as resting easy. Young Spreckles was arrested and released on bail. The good reputation of the State demands that the authorities should take rigid and decisive action toward the punishment of the would-be murderers in San Francisco who in the past have easily escaped deserved punishment, and check the shooting career of the Kallochs and their ilk. John Bright in a recent letter says: "The overthrow of the party of protection and monopoly in America may prove to be a great blessing, and when England and America have embraced the policy of free industry, the whole fabric of monopoly throughout the world will totter to its downfall." He further argues that since the adoption of free trade by England the price of food and the hours of labor have diminished, while wages have doubled. He says that although trade in England is momentarily depressed, the depression is far greater in protection countries like Russia, France and America. Lord Dunraven publishes a reply to the letter. Lord Dunraven states, in contradistinction to the statement of Bright, that wages have risen more in America than in England, that the American workingmen are much better off, and that tens of thousands of English artisans are thus attracted to America. Lord Dunraven also states that the trade of Russia, France and America, last seven years, has been rapidly extending, while the trade of England has been declining. Lord Dunraven says the party of protection and monopoly in America have been overthrown, but Bright has supported six-shooter, nearly a foot long. Ex-Governor Perkins leads in the race, and we are glad of it. Everybody who knows Mr. Perkins likes him, and he has more hearty good wishes from the masses than probably any other public man in California. He is a thorough Californian, takes a personal pride in the advancement of the State and is more directly interested in its prosperity and in the advancement of all its industries than either of his opponents. With Mr. Perkins as a Senator, Southern California would be especially well looked after. As one of the proprietors of the line of steamers which visit every harbor on the coast, he is directly and especially interested in the improvement of those harbors, and we believe that one result of his presence in the Senate would be a decided increase in the amount of appropriations for the improvement of the various ports. To bring the matter more directly to our readers, we may cite the harbor of Wilmington, the improvement of which, owing to niggardly appropriations by Congress, has advanced all too slowly to keep pace with the growing demands of this section. If that harbor was what it should be—if the system of lighterage could be dispensed with—one great burden would be taken from importations, and one great item of expense would be saved to merchants, and necessarily to consumers. There is not a man who produces anything which is sent to San Francisco but what contributes his proportion to keep up the costly lighterage, whether his product goes to market by sea or rail; for the freight tariff of the railroad is regulated by the tariff of the steamship company. If ship and wharf could be brought together, freight rates by sea and rail would both come down. For this reason, among a hundred others, we would like to see George C. Perkins elected Senator. He is the manner of man to secure favorable legislation for his constituents. The word "fail" is not in his lexicon. He has the brain to coceive, the will to execute and the persistence and tact to secure. Not a week would pass when Congress was in session without the people of California having evidence that there was one man in Washington who was caring for their interests, and planning and working to advance them. LICENSED GAMBLING The position, the infatuation and the ruin of young January affords a fertile text for moralizing. Upon first thought it would seem that there must be a loose wheel in the mental machinery of a young man who deliberately and continuously follows a course certain to result in disregard to his family and in ruin himself; but when are considered the temptations, on the one hand of sacks of gold coin easy of access, and on the other the seductive enticements of a fraternity embellished with all that constitutes outward make-up of refined gentleman, and a legalized license to pursue and pluck their victims, there arises a sympathy or a sorrow that there should exist a moral sentiment so loose as to permit the existence of gambling hells and their progeny. That Sacramento, the Capital city of California, should license gambling is a disgrace to the State. That grain is also particularly valued for mountain lands. We commend this grain for general trial, and in particular for northern valleys of the State. Rice, Sprat, or Battle-door Barley: Some respects there is a close resemblance between this variety and the last, as in upright straw, heads of even hight, and spreading beards. Straw very short; has two rows of grain in a very short head so that the beards stand in the form of battle-door. The grain is said to swell when cooked, as rice does. The yield is fair, and the hardy plant adapted to mountain regions—an interesting variety. Frick's Barley: An excellent grain of fine brewing grade. Head two-rowed, but more compact and upright than the Chevalier. The plant is also said to be less affected by drought. Scotch Two-rowed Barley: In a series of years this has proved to be a very superior grain, both in yield and quality, as well as not lodging as badly as Chevalier. We have good reports from seed sent out in former years. Imperial Two-rowed: Good, but not as well proved as some others. Carter's Prolific: True to its name, this kind tillers a great deal, and bears a large number of heads of rather light grain. Adapted to the production of feed barley, or to sow for hay. Nepaul, Bald, Spoon, or Pearl Barley: Having no harsh beards, and threshing out clean from the chaff, this is a curiosity to many farmers. As green forage, it is greatly relished by all domestic animals, including poultry. An excellent soiling crop. Hay made from it is the highest priced in this market. The plant is more subject to rust and attacks of aphis than common barley. The soil should be in good heart, and well tilled, and the crop sown the latter part of January, in this section. Blue Barley: Although bearded, this is another of the smooth barleys, which lose their chaff in threshing. The grain is dark blue or purple, and the stem and foliage partake of the same color while growing. Reports from parties receiving seed from us state that hogs are very fond of the green plant, so that it should form good pasture for them. St John's Day Rye: Heavy drooping heads. Broad near the stem and tapering towards the tip. Abundant fine beards. Acknowledged to be one of the best of known ryes. From seed imported from Erfurt, Germany. Seeds of the three following grasses will be sent in 4 oz. packages; send 5 cents in stamps for each. Schrader's brome grass (Bromur Schraderii or uniloides): Valued in Australia as resisting drought, and in Texas as giving good feed in winter and early spring. It is among the first grasses to start, grows vigorously, and matures an abundance of heavy seeds. Its seed stems being two or three feet high, and root leave abundant, it can be used for either hay or pasture. Hungarian brome grass (Bromus innermis): From seed imported by the University from Europe, commended by the Freude's adaptation to dry soils. Our experience indicates that Lord Dunraven publishes a reply to the letter. Lord Dunraven states, in contradistinction to the statement of Bright, that wages have risen more in America than in England, that the American workingmen are much better off, and that tens of thousands of English artisans are thus attracted to America. Lord Dunraven also states that the trade of Russia, France and America, the last seven years, has been rapidly extending, while the trade of England has been declining. Lord Dunraven says the party of protection and monopoly in America have been overthrown, but Bright has supported the Republican party by tongue and pen since 1861, and now, in the first moment of its misfortune and humiliation, has nothing but contemptuous epithets for that party, forgetful that the Democrat of America are as much pledged to protection as the Republicans. CLEVELAND is elected. The Republican National Committee gave up the fight on last Saturday and confessed judgment against them in New York State by about 1200 votes. All hail, President Cleveland. Now that the smoke of battle has cleared away, to use an original phrase, it is well to look upon the bright side of matters political. Since the contest has been decided, Cleveland has received more decided endorsements from Republicans than they dared give him previously. The latest utterance of that kind from a conspicuous man is that of Derman R. Eaton, the head of Civil Service Reform. He said: "Governor Cleveland and the statesmen of his party would oppose any attempt to repeal the Civil Service Act. The President will lead the reform element of his party, and his clear convictions, his high sense of duty, his courage and his strength of character will secure the victory. There is no public man in this country who has a higher sense of the moral obligations of official life, or who is more certain to withstand more partisan and salish appeals than Governor Cleveland. What has Governor Cleveland done in New York to warrant this estimate of him? Buffalo was a city almost as partisan, lawless and as badly governed as Cincinnati. Upon being made Sheriff Mr. Cleveland exhibited these qualities which are being more and more needed and appreciated by the people. They comprehended and appraved his spirit, and he was elegged Mayor by a vote from both parties in that Republican city. His life as mayor was a continuous struggle for honesty and of fidelity in office against jobbers, apallamen, and partisans who had long probed on the city. He magnified the situation, and became known as the veto mayor. His fearless way of dealing with them is shown by the language of his voice." NEW YORK'S VOTE. The Board of State Canvassers met on Wednesday. Errors were found in the returns from several counties which upon investigation were rectified without changing previous figures. Up to Friday noon no material discrepancies had been discovered, and the plurality of Cleveland will undoubtedly be announced by the Board not far from eleven hupdred. The political campaign was pretty lively in New Mexico, judging from the following attack on Judge Prince, made by a Spanish paper published in Santa Fe. "Judge Prince is a diabolical being; he belongs to the Masonic fraternity, in consequence of which he stands excommunicated. Guard yourselves, oh! New Mexicans, from giving your vote to Judge Prince, if you do not wish that the fires of Heaven descend on your heads. Vote, oh! vote for the Hon. Antonio Joseph, who will know how to be grateful for your votes, and who will let no insane stand in the way of his guiding you with firm step to the splendid temple of progress and immortality." There is an old woman in Boston, the widow of a French marshal, who now grinds a hand-organ, the tip of which is decorated with her husband's medals. She is said to speak the present French to be heard in the Huh, and her face resembles an English walnut. Schrader's brome grass (Bromur Schraderii or uniloiles): Valued in Australia as resisting drought, and in Texas as giving good feed in winter and early spring. It is among the first grasses to start, grows vigorously, and matures an abundance of heavy seeds. Its seed stems being two or three feet high, and root leave abundant, it can be used for either hay or pasture. Hungarian brome grass (Bromus inermis): From seed imported by the University from Europe, commen led by the Frenc' adapted to dry soils. Our experience indicates that it will do well here either without rain or with moderate irrigation. Millium multiforum: A perennial millet grass, which has no popular English name that we know of. Seed very fine, and plant of slow development, but strong. If kept down, there is an abundant growth of fine leaves, which resist winter frosts to a remarkable degree. Angola, Panic (Panicum spectabile): Frequently called "evergreen millet." Spreading rapidly by underground root stocks, this grass gives a very large amount of coarse but good forage. In the warmer parts of the State with irrigation, enormous yields are reported. Frogs cut this grass to the surface of the ground, but it grows again as soon as warm weather returns. It should not be planted where permanent grass is not wanted. Pound packages of root-stocks, 20 cents. To those afflicted with "Foxtail" or other undesirable grasses we specially commend a thorough trial of these four varieties, putting them in early, in the hope of amothering the bad ones. Acacia decurrens, the black wattle or tanbark acacia of Australia: The bark of this tree, as grown on the University grounds, contains, as heretofore stated (Bulletin No. 4) over 40 per cent of tannin when in the air-dried condition, while that of the eaks usually amounts to only 10 or 12. The tree is a rapid grower, and is usually stripped in its eighth to tenth year, when 30 to 40 feet high. Does well on heavy as well as on light soils, provided they are deep; is doubtless hardly from Sacramento southward, possibly further north on light soil. The sand is very hard and should be smoked well in warm water until softened, before sowing; otherwise it may be in the ground a year before coming up. Ounce packages, two ounce each.

Half course packages, two cents each. C. H. DWENLLER. Berkeley, Nov. 16, 1824. Explosion at Mejave. While unloading a freight car at the depot in Mojave, last Saturday at 4:20 p.m., one of the truckmen accidentally broke a package of acids, which set fire to the car. As there were no facilities at hand for suppressing the fire, it soon communicated to some powder, when an explosion took place, shattering the car, the side of the depot building, and scattering the fire in every direction and placing it out of control. As it was known the fire would soon communicate with ninety cases of giant powder, every effort was made to get the remaining cars away from the fire before the final explosion would take place. The men succeeded in unlocking and backing a few of the loaded cars up the grade out of the way, when the ninety cases of giant powder exploded with a force of six hundred kegs of ordinary blasting powder, scattering and destroying the depot building, cars and everything in the way. The report was distinctly heard for a distance of twenty-five miles. The people had time to escape, as some fifteen minutes elapsed after the first explosion occurred and it became evident the giant powder would be fired by the flames. The concussion was so great that it brought nearly every one in the place to the ground and broke the windows out of the buildings and the care that were some distance from the explosion. No blame can possibly attach to the company or its employees, as the contents of the package could not possibly be known by the freight hands engaged in unloading the cars. The loss of property in the building, cars and contents is variously estimated at from $10,000 to $25,000.—L. A. Herald. Wonderful Progresz. According to the statistics which are now being collected at Sacramento, the county of Los Angeles has increased in population in the last four years 31,619 souls. No other county in the State increased half as much. Alameda and Sacramento which come next. Morroville Morrowmanship. A Sir Potemberg correspondent, writing to the London Standard, says: "This morning I witnessed a wonderful display of horoscope. It took place in the Petrofsky Park' Host, in the presence of the Grand Duke Nicholas and most of the foreign officers and guests a regiment of Carnack grandmen went through an extraordinary series of exercises, which threw the most daring feats of the circum in the shade. The entire regiment passed in fall gallop, in loose order, with many of the men standing upright in their maddles, others on their hands with legs in the air, many leaping to the ground and then into the middle again at fall speed, some springing over horses' heads and picking up stones from the ground, and yet regaining their seats. While performing these fests all were brandishing their mhres and firing pistols, throwing their carbines into the air and catching them again, and yelling like maniacs. Some men went past in pairs, standing with alog on each other's horse; one wild fellow carried off another, dressed as a woman. The effect of some was absolutely bewildering, not it seemed as if the whole regiment had gone mad. Upon a signal being given, the regiment divided into two parts. One rode off, then halted and made their horses lie down on the ground beside them, waiting as in war, the approach of the enemy. The other section of the regiment then charged down, and in an instant every horse was on his feet, every rider in his middle, and with a wild yell they rode at their supposed enemy. When the maneuvers were over the regiment rode past singing uncommonly well together, a military chorus. Altogether it was a marvelous exhibition of daring horoscope, and one hardly knew whether to admire the docility and metal of the steeds or the skill and courage of the riders. All the foreign officers and guests were no less astonished than delighted." Sensation at a Marriage Ceremony. Str. Louis, November 17th.—Edward Amienas was about to be joined in marriage to Mrs. Laura Carroll at St. Nicholas Church to-day, when a girl of slight figure with streaming hair and weeping eyes entered and said: "Don't marry him; don't marry him, please. He is my husband." The bride fainted and the groom turned pale. The priest looked dumbfounded and the girl continued: "He betrayed me under the girl continued: 'He betrayed me under the regiment rode past singing uncommonly well together.' A military chorus. Altogether it was a marvelous exhibition of daring horoscope, and one hardly knew whether to admire the docility and metal of the steeds or the skill and courage of the riders.

St. Louis, November 17th.—Edward Amienas was about to be joined in marriage to Mrs. Laura Carroll at St. Nicholas Church to-day, when a girl of slight figure with streaming hair and weeping eyes entered and said: "Don't marry him; don't marry him, please. He is my husband." The bride fainted and the groom turned pale. The priest looked dumbfounded and the girl continued: "He betrayed me under the promise of marriage, and only last week he said we should be married at Christmas, and now he is going to take some one else. He is killing me." By this time the bride had revived, and throwing her arms hysterically around the groom cried: "No one can take him away. I'll have him anyhow." Father Schafer would not proceed with the ceremony until he consulted with his superiors. The groom acknowledged the truth of the girl's statement, but it is said that he went before a Justice subsequently married Mrs. Carroll. Virginia de Mattoos is the name of the girl who stopped the ceremony. Hudson River Valley Grapes. New York, Nov. 18.—The enormous grape crop of the Hudson River Valley brings 5 to 7 cents per pound. The present season has been the most remarkable one on record for its unprecedented yield of black grapes. Growers say they have received $600 per acre for Concord, and twice that amount for white and fancy fruit. Next spring the acreage will be very largely increased in Ulster county and elsewhere along the Hudson river. Producers say there is no fear of over-production. The West Shore Railroad has opened scores of new markets in the north and west, and in the Eastern States via Albany and the Hoosac tunnel. In less than ten years the entire Hudson Valley will be one vast vineyard. News of the Week. Robins, full-breasted and fat, are sold in the New York markets for $1 per dozen.

It turns out that an eccentric rich man of Pittsburg made a will several years ago, making the first Democratic President a sort of residuary legatee. By this document Cleveland will come into possession of about $50,000 for the use and behoof of the Democratic party and the perpetuation of democratic principles. The man's name was Alexander McGill, who in 1878 made a will excluding his divorced wife from any share of the property and bequeathing the most of it to his sister during her lifetime and after her death to his aunts and their children and from them to the Democratic President, as above stated. It does not appear that any of the formidable list of legateses is yet deceased. Views of a Tariff Reformer New York, Nov. 17.—J. S. Moore, the well-known writer on tariff, says in the Times this morning. "The defeat of Blame emphatically proclaims to the high tariff oligarchy that the chances of higher duties on foreign commodities died on the 4th of November, and the chances for tariff reform have from that date taken a new and favorable departure. What tariff reform now aims at is to free raw material, largely reduce the taxes on the necessaries of life, and to cause a reduction of 20 to 40 per cent in the tax on certain foreign manufactured goods." He adds: "We advocate a high rate of duty, I should say, the present one, on wine, spirits, tobacco, cigars and perfumery." In Chicago a number of young children started a bonfire and rolled into it a barrel containing rosin and turpentine. The bonfire exploded with tariffs force, very seriously burning six children, five of whom are not expected to survive. The manner and age of the partially injured are: Adam Postle, 10 years; Rennell Foley, 12 years; Denly, 6 years; Eddie Burke, 10 years; Morgan Bank, 5 years.

A body was found drowned at New Haven, Conn., two weeks ago, and was successively identified as that of four different men, all of whom came forward personally to contest the allegation. At Blue Hill, Neb., Sunday, Joe Cook the murderer, was taken from jail and hanged to a derrick. The Sheriff appeared and rescued the prisoner before death ensued. His injuries, however, are probably fatal. Pamela's of the threat makes it impossible for Himan Webster, of Tyringham, Mass., to swallow anything though for the past five weeks his physician have managed by other devices to keep him alive. He is conscious talks freely about his condition and says he has not for some time past had any pangs of bunger or thirst.

A Pittaburg special says: Priscilla Brown, aged sixteen, of Rochester, thirty miles from this city, committed suicide yesterday morning by hanging. The Browns were once wealthy people, and still move in the best social circles. The girl had many admirers but favored Henry Groen. The parents interfered and yesterday morning when the family across, the girl appeared in unusually good spirits and went out in the garden to water her flowers. A few minutes afterwards she was found hanging by a cord to a rafter in the barn. She had tied her feet with a handkerchief, mounted a chair, fastened the cord and kicked the chair from under her.
