WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...JAN. 24, 1855 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. The people of this country will highly approve of the selection as the place to which the Mormon can Jose is to be directed—of a Mexican Territory inhabited by "terrible Indians who have never been subdued." When the Mexican Government thinks of this attempt to single barbarians does not yet appear. Truzna is a grim satisfaction in kicking your enemy down stairs, but the recollection of the thing is apt to be tempered with regret when a verdict for damages is the result. Ten years ago, R. C. Lucas kicked George Thuston down stairs at Grand Rapids, Mich., and he has just recovered $10,000 for the indignity. Truly an expensive kick. The bill introduced in the legislature prohibiting fishing for shad and salmon on Sunday will be received with loud expressions of disapprobation. But it should be remembered that there is as good fish in the seas as shad and salmon. The slippery smelt and the finny flounder may be hooked on the seventh day without a violation of the statutes of the State of California. The annual report of the Department of Agriculture is now in press, and makes the record of the corn production of 1884 1,795,000,000 bushels; of wheat nearly 513,000,000; and of oats, 583,000,000. These aggregates are the largest ever recorded. The rate of yield is 25.8 bushels of corn; wheat, 13; oats, 27.40. These are the figures of permanent record. In the case of poisoning from drinking alleged California port wine, which was reported in New York last week, will have the effect of exposing the makers of spurious wine, the sufferings of the poisoned individual will not have been in vain. The telegraphic statement that the New York dealers in genuine California wine are averse to naming the firms they have reason to suspect them. We believe that Washington where his company has large interests, will not be neglected, and that he will seek to lay the excitement caused by his election by working energetically to advance the material interests of the State he represents. (San Francisco Chronicle) Whatever impression has election may cause abrupt, it is a fact understood by every one conversant with the politics of the State that the sentiment of the people is overwhelmingly against monopolies. In no sense does this action of the majority of the publicans in the Legislature correctly represent the people who sent them to that body. They have simply taken advantage of the circumstance that, in an election in which the overshadowing idea was to give the electoral vote of the State to Blaine, their attitude on the important question of monopoly or anti-monopoly was not closely scrutinized. It is a question for the future to determine what result the election of the President of the Central Pacific Railroad to United States Senate by the Republican California will have on the fortunes of this party in this State. Leland Stanford is man of unquestioned ability. When filled the office of Governor of California performed its duties to the satisfaction of the people. He is generally regarded by classics of citizens as the only man in coterie who manages the affairs of the great railroad monopoly of this coast with our servative instincts, and he has been credited on divers occasions with viability, if carried out, would benefit patrons of the railroad. How much of it is mere rumor we are not in a position know; but when such a man as the proprietor of the leading Democratic anti-monopolar paper of San Francisco declares openly that he would have confidence in the integrity and general fairness of Stanford as a legalitor, the impression must have some foundation in fact. However this may be, it is certain that upon Governor Stanford's conduct as a Senator will hinge the prospects of the Republican party in 1886. If the assurances given by his friends are warranted, and Stanford promptly commences to carry out effect some of the numerous plans he is to have projected to provide the people of the State with needed/public improvement hostility will be largely disarmed and These aggregates are the largest ever recorded. The rate of yield is 25.8 bushels of corn; wheat, 13; oats, 27.40. These are the figures of permanent record. In the case of poisoning from drinking alleged California port wine, which was reported in New York last week, will have the effect of exposing the makers of spurious wine, the sufferings of the poisoned individual will not have been in vain. The telegraphic statement that the New York dealers in genuine California wine are averse to naming the firms they have reason to suspect are dealing in adulterated wines is a most inexplicable circumstance. A cablegram says the week has been full of proofs of an extraordinary advance everywhere, but especially in England, of the most radical notions on the social question. The general hunger is ready to take command, demanding great legislative and social changes. In France the evil is more apparent, and no less than 300,000 people are out of employment in that country. In Germany Bismarck acknowledges that the present duration of working hours leaves the mechanic a slave, and the Chancellor asks, in despair, for some one to propose a remedy. Finally, the Pall Mall Gazette sums up the whole sentiment of Europe when it suggests to Bismarck that he should summon together an international conference for the discussion of means for meeting the social difficulties in all the countries of Europe. The recognized reputation of the California State Senate as a religious body of negative quality is seemingly sustained at the present session. The proceedings on Monday last when the election of a chaplain came up were characterized by a levity and disregard of the efficacy of petition for divorce especially noticeable. Sandwiched with worldly matters, the selection of a chaplain was made from numerous applicants whose chief recommendation was neodiness. Rev J. J. L. Trefren of Vallejo was elected with supplementary resolutions restricting his prayers in length to two and one-half minutes in time, and his compensation fixed "upon a gradating scale—that is, the longer the howl the less the pay." Prevalence of Poison A New York paper has these two items in one issue: "Dr. Edson stopped the sale of 92 chests of alleged tea which R. M. Montgomery was to auction off yesterday at 106 Wall street. The samples on which he based his action, he said, were leaves of shrubs colored with scopatone and Prussian blue." "A young milliner with a discolored face, and showing other symptoms of ill health, called on Dr. Edson on Tuesday and showed him a number of pheasants' heads, such as ornament women's bonnets, which are colored with arsenic. She said she and several of her fellow millers had been poisoned while handling the ornaments, as they must be stepped in hot water before they can be used, and the emblem is in the display."

The Chairman announced that Stanford had received a majority of the votes cast and is therefore the caucus nominee, and the caucus immediately adjourned. Senator-elect Stanford is a typical Californian—a sagacious, able and industrious gentleman. He is benevolent in an unostentative way, and gives freely of his great wealth to deserving charities. He is personally a man of winning ways and pleasing manners, and courteous to everyone with whom he has dealings. He will exert great influence in the Senate, and his large interests in this State will be a spur to his efforts for legislation favorable to it. The wonder is that a man of his wealth cares to assume the responsibilities and toil which belongs to the Senatorial office when filled as it ought to be, and as it probably will be by Senator Stanford. The State is to be congratulated that it has in the Senate a man who cares so much for its welfare, and who has the ability and the influence necessary to forward its interests. Senator-elect Stanford is one of the magnates of the Central Pacific and Southern Pacific railroad corporations, with which the people of this State are more or less at war. In the matter of rates there is a standing and irreconcilable difference of opinion between the railway managers and the people, while in the general conduct of the road and its relations to the general government there always has been and always will be opposite opinions held by the railroad men and by the public. These differences of opinion must be reconciled and adjusted as far as practicable by the different State legislatures and by Congress. In the Congress which is now in session various bills are being considered which relate directly to the management of railroad corporations and the correction of alleged abuses therein. Bills of that character have come up before every session of Congress for ten years past, and will continue to be brought forward for consideration at every future session for twice ten years. California has, or fancies it has, more grievances against the railroad corporations than any other State. And yet, through its duly elected representatives, its elects to the tribunal from which all lawful relief must come, the very gentleman against whom they complain. The defendant-in the case is made a judge of the case. From these thoughts, conjured up by the election of this distinguished gentleman referred to, the thoughtful reader can probably decide whether it was a wise thing to elect Mr. Stanford, and whether the Republican party in this State will gain or lose by their choosing this able and influential citizen to represent California in the Senate of the United States. There will be those so short-sighted as estimate the selection of Governor Stanley as a railroad triumph. Nothing can be interpreted from the truth. On the contrary, it may be interpreted if at all in the light local issues, as a nearer approach to harmony between producing and transportation interests essential to the very existence of each. The years of experience of Mr. Stanford as a producer and transport fit him in the broadest sense to judge of necessities of each, and to contribute to final adjustment of relations which would never have existed had narrow counsels prevailed, and appeal narrow prejudices been made due to political preferment. It would be interesting to judge of the citizens of Forma to think that for a moment they have contemplated this subject in connection with the possible election of Governor Stanford to the Senatorial office. [San Francisco Bulletin] On the questions which are pending tween the railroad corporations and General Government, which must, in seek solution in the body to which it is posed to translate the ex-Governer, it is likely that he can or would act the depart part of defendant, or plaintiff, as they may be, and judge. We imagine that after with so assured a place in history, we not allow himself to be placed in an equal attitude, and that at the close of a remarkable, and in many respects brilliant career. It is certain at this point that should enter the Senate that his career be closely watched. The presumption that time will be against him. But as and fearless man, if his policy be strained need have no fear of the scrutiny that will apply. If he should fail in any of theseicular states, it will be a long time before the Republican party regains power in Forma. The fate of the party is, be of alleged tea which R. M. Montgomery was to auction off yesterday at 106 Wall street. The samples on which he based his action, he said, were leaves of shrubs colored with soapstone and Prussian blue. "A young milliner with a discolored face, and showing other symptoms of ill health, called on Dr. Edson on Tuesday and showed him a number of pheasant's heads, such as ornament women's bonnets, which are colored with arsenic. She said she and several of her fellow milliners had been poisoned while handling the ornaments, as they must be stepped in hot water before they can be used, and the arsenic is thus dissolved. The complainant appealed to Dr. Edson not so much to have him put a stop to the poisoning, as to have him collect evidence which would enable her to obtain damages against her employer." Fatal Fire KANKAKEE, Ill., Jan. 19. — The South Infirmary of Illinois Eastern Hospital for the insane was burned this morning at 4:30. The fire originated in the furnace room and had got a good headway before it was discovered. The woodwork of the building being pine it burned very rapidly. The building was occupied by 45 patients and one night watchman. Seventeen patients are missing. Thirteen bodies have been recovered. All the patients were infirmed. The bedridden were rescued first but those able to assist themselves did not realize the danger, and many of them perished. The attendant lost all their effects and many had a narrow escape. One of them had to tie bedclothes together and let himself down from a top window. The building was a new one and cost $78,000, but was not yet provided with water works. Sixteen of the inmates were burned to death. Senatorial Elections The Indiana Legislature has elected Voorhees (Democrat) as U. S. Senator. Pennsylvania has elected J. D. Cameron (Republican) as Senator. Florida sends W. Call (Democrat) to the Senate. New York has done well in choosing William M. Evarts (Republican) as Senator, Connecticut elects as Senator O. H. Platt (Republican.) Utah has elected Ex-Secretary Telles in the Senate. Mr. Van Kirk (Democrat) has been re-elected by the Minnesota Legislature. Press Comments. [Los Angeles Express] The choice of our legislators is a good one. Governor Stanford is a man of pre-eminent ability, of exalted character, and of such colossal wealth as makes him superior to all petty considerations of expediency and personal emolument. We believe that in the Senate he will be actuated solely by a severe sense of obligation and trust. So far Los Angeles is concerned, it owes much to the enterprise and partiality of Governor Stanford. Any one who knows anything about the matter knows that the city would never have been what it is to-day but for the lengthening of the Southern Pacific Railway, of which Governor Stanford is the President and controlling spirit, and establishing its main line out of its direct course so as to take it through Los Angeles. Cities can no more afford to forget favors than can individuals; and therefore if any city in the State has reason to feel satisfied with the choice of Governor Stanford, it is this city. We do not look for the disastrous results to the Republican party from this choice which we hear in some quarters. [Los Angeles Herald] This election is a challenge to the whole people of the United States, and it cannot fail to direct attention anew to the commanding power of corporations. The Democratic party for years has asserted, and with great plenibility—indeed, with indisputable evidences of the fact—that the Republican party is the party of corporations and monopolies, and the election of Stanford determines the question in the affirmative on to California at least. Meanwhile, we think we may assume that in all matters outside of transportation the new Senator will be a suitable friend to all approximations intended to benefit this State, and that he will be a powerful father in society. Klagenfurt, the capital of the province in Southern Anatolia, was by an avalanche on Sunday, which waved several buildings and killed twenty-tans. Many others were injured and resisted homeless. All efforts to rescue were futile. A later despairMany residents of the place are minors it is believed they are bound and now in addition to the twenty-known to be killed. The city still are starting themselves vigorously to train the four of the missing persons thousand men are diving through to recover the bodies of the dead man in the impoundment. We believe that Washington, company has large interests, will elect, and that he will seek to abolition caused by his election by energetically to advance the matters of the State he represents. For impression his election may create it is a fact understood by every man with the politics of the State treatment of the people in over-against monopolies. In no sense section of the majority of the Rea's the Legislature correctly represent people who sent them to that body. Simply taken advantage of the vice that, in an election in which shadowing idea was to give the votes of the State to Blaine, their important question of morally-monopoly was not closely questioned for the future to determine the election of the President Central Pacific Railroad to the States Senate by the Republicans of will have on the fortunes of the State. Leland Stanford is a conquested ability. When he office of Governor of California he its duties to the satisfaction of He is generally regarded by all citizens as the only man in the city manages the affairs of the great monopoly of this coast with instincts, and he has been action divers occasions with views carried out, would benefit the railroad. How much of thisamor we are not in a position to when such a man as the proprietor leading Democratic anti-monopoly San Francisco declares openly that have confidence in the integrity fairness of Stanford as a legislature impression must have some foundament. Or this may be, it is certain that Governor Stanford's conduct as a Senatorange the prospects of the Republi-cin 1886. If the assurances given friends are warranted, and Mr. promptly commences to carry into one of the numerous plans he is said projected to provide the people of with needed public improvements, will be largely disarmed and he The Legislature Among the measures introduced in the Legislature are the following: Prohibiting the use of explosive substances in fishing or plating deleterious matter in water. Making it a felony to either sell or give away opinions for smoking purposes. To repeal an Act providing for the organization of agricultural associations and for the control of the same by the State. To provide for licensing shows and games in counties outside of city and township limits. To amend an Act to protect apprentices, and requiring the Superior Court to hear their complaints. Providing for the appointment of a standing committee of seven on immigration. A bill, the object of which is to secure better county roads, by requiring all repairs thereto to be done by contract, instead of by direction of the roadmasters, as at present. Under the present system one man has, in many instances, from thirty to forty miles of road under his supervision, and it is impossible for him to give the necessary attention to such an extent of road. The bill contemplates the division of the roads of each county into sections of eight, ten or twelve miles each, and to have the repairing in these separate sections done by contract. The bill introduced by Assemblyman Davis of Sacramento, relative to a State detective force, provides for the appointment of a State detective force, consisting of a chief and five subordinate detectives. The chief is to be appointed by the Governor, and the subordinates are to be selected by the chief. The State is to be divided into five districts, to each of which a detective will be assigned. No appointment is to be made on account of politics, and no removals are to be made except for cause, and after a hearing. The members of the force are to have the police powers of Sheriffs and Constables throughout the State, and their whole time is to be devoted to the detection of crime. The chief is to receive a salary of $2,400, and each of the subordinates $1,500 annually, and they are not permitted to receive rewards. To repeal those sections of the Civil Code which legalize as marriages such relations as existed between William Sharon and Sarah Althea Hill, retaining the sections that require due solemnization of the marriage cer- Income is checked, the election may be by the congressive plan. This is called to be San Francisco's only election from less rule. Regulating two heights of divides forces in cities and towns. Urging upon Congress the passage of a law allowing homestead settlers $600 sums of land when the same does not enlarge more than 90 acres of arable soil. The committee to whom it had been referred recommended the passage of the bill to secure the wages of persons employed as laborers on thrashing machines. To prevent the spreading offruit-tree pests and fruit-tree diseases. A Mechanics' Lion bill, providing that in all cases the owner shall retain sufficient funds in his hands to pay laborers and material in full. Pacific Coast News Ex-Senator NeSmith of Oregon is pronounced to be hopeless insane. Sonora oranges sell at $20 per 100 pounds in Tucson. There are 1379 patients in the Napa Insane Asylum. The largest number ever confined in the institution at one time was 1390. The Mormon Temple at Salt Lake City will yet require more than four years for its completion, and will cost $3,000,000. Scarlet fever is reported prevailing among children, and terribly fatal, at Carbon, Wy, two or three children's funerals occurring daily. Henry Edgerton of Sacramento, the messenger appointed to carry the electoral vote of California to Washington, receives $757.76 mileage. Charles Moore took a large dose of corrosive aniline by mistake, at Harry Cavil's place, near Modesto, last Friday. Immediate remedies were used with apparently good effect. C. W. Mills died last Saturday evening, at Tucscara, Nevada, from the effect of a hypodermic injection of morphine, administered at his own request, by a morphine fiend of that place. William Sharkey, postmaster at Oroville, has been suspended by a postal agent for alleged shortage in accounts to the amount of $1,200. Sam Titua, of Biggs, has been put in charge of the office by Sharkey's bondsmen. John P. Greesley, a section hand employed by the Central Pacific Railroad Company since 1869, was run over and killed while asleep in Livermore tunnel Friday. The three-year-old son of Frank Oliver, constable at Hailey, I. T., died from the effects of a dose of laudanum, administered in mistake for paregorie. Last Friday a little daughter of George Birch of Bennington, Utah was shot through head and instantly killed by the accidental discharge of a gun in the hands of San Francisco declares openly that have confidence in the integrity of Fairness of Stanford as a legislative depression must have some foundation. This may be, it is certain that Governor Stanford's conduct as a Senatorange the prospects of the Republican in 1886. If the assurances given to friends are warranted, and Mr. promptly commences to carry into effect of the numerous plans he is said projected to provide the people of with needed public improvements, will be largely disarmed and he come as popular in public as he is in life.

To amend Section 1881 of the Code of Civil Procedure, relating to relations which disqualify persons from being witnesses in certain cases.

A bill authorizing the Boards of Supervisors of the various counties of this State, or such of them as consider it necessary or expedient so do, to cause to be annually levied and collected, at the same time and in the same manner as State and county taxes are levied and collected, a tax not exceeding three cents on each one hundred dollars of taxable property of their respective counties, for the purpose of providing a fund for the assistance of such deserving residents or inhabitants of their counties as are, in the judgment of the Board, in needy or destitute circumstances.

By Mr. Edwards, of Los Angeles—Providing for the establishment of a State Asylum for the Insane in Southern California, and an appropriation of $200,000 for that purpose. Mr. Reddy in the Senate and Mr. Weaver in the Assembly introduced the following measures, which were prepared according to the Irrigation Convention's views: Providing for the discovery and adjudication of the origin, extent and nature of all appropriations, diversions and utilizations of water for agricultural purposes and other beneficial uses made in the State of California, under California or national statutes, or in pursuance of local custom or usage, and of all claims of rights based upon appropriations, diversions, etc.; to provide for the recording friend of that place.

A young man named Chas. Kacey was accidentally shot through the body, and mortally wounded, while hunting on the Musculatic ranch, in company with four companions, one of whom was unfortunate enough to fire the fatal shot. C. T. Cooper, a colored barber, was recently married at Portland, Or., to Miss Lucy Burnell, a white woman, who is possessed of some means in California. As mixed marriages are forbidden by law in Oregon, serious complications are likely to grow out of the affair involving the person who performed the ceremony and the witness who swore that Miss Burnell was a colored woman. H. T. Hewitt, the Postmaster at San Jacinto, San Diego county, was arrested by a Deputy United States Marshal last week and taken to Los Angeles for examination upon a charge of tampering with registered matter arriving at his office in the mail. The parties who made the complaint against Hewitt think they have a dead thing on securing a conviction, while Hewitt's friends denounce the whole thing a "put-up job" to deprive him of the postoffice. It may be valuable to some of our vineyardists to know that a herd of three hundred young turkeys kept a large vineyard in Preso county clear of bugs and worms during the past season, while in neighboring vineyards not so protected the worms and bugs almost destroyed the crop. And the turkeys were in fine order for Thanksgiving, and being exceedingly fat brought a snug price, that fully paid for the expense of herding them in the vineyard. After the election of Cleveland had become known positively, R. H. Magill raised a flag over his dwelling in Alameda, by way of showing his joy at the Democratic victory. Though but a piece of banting similar to that used a great deal during the campaign, many persons believed it to be a rebel flag, and a crowd of persons went to the house to take it down. Mr. Magill has now procured the arrest of thirteen of the young men prominent in the raid. The matter has caused a deal of excitement in the city of Alameda. News of the Week.
