WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY... JAN. 31, 1855 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. LAND STANFORD was formally elected United States Senator by the Legislature on Wednesday. The vote stood: Stanford, 78; Heselt, 27; Parley, 2; and Searles, 1; The reward of 200,000 francs ($500,000) offered by the French Government for an efficient remedy for phylloxera has been claimed by J. A. Bauer of this State. His remedy is quicksilver applied to the roots of vines. His remedy has been widely tried in Napa and Sonoma counties, and pronounced efficacious. It is no trick at all to make wine without grapes or bricks without straw, but adulteration is getting beyond such common deceptions. Samples of what was reported to be buckwheat flour having been submitted to the Secretary of the New York State Board of Health, that official was unable to find a particle of buckwheat in them. A crank called Montague R. Leverson has served notice upon Congress that he will contest the seat of Markham and Felton, Congressmen elect from the Fifth and Sixth districts, on the ground that there is no Fifth and Sixth district. The very ridiculous Leverson has had his case thrown out of Court in San Francisco and only pursues the subject to get a little cheap notoriety. The spasmodic warfare between competing Eastern roads is raging savagely. The Pennsylvania Railroad has cut rates to such an extent that it is issuing immigrant tickets to San Francisco for $38. This unprecedentedly low rate will probably induce a large immigration. The belligerent spirit has also engrafted itself upon the Transatlantic Steamship Companies, and the result is that an immigrant can now get from Bremen to Portland, Oregon, for $48. More Emergency Mills. Since compiling the digest of irrigation bills, published on the first page, we have received the two following which were introduced in the Assembly by Mr. Edwards: AN ACT TO DECLARE THE TITLE TO WAVERS IN RIVERS, STREAMS, LAKES AND POWDER, AND THE RIGHT TO ITS USE. SECTION 1. The waters of all rivers, streams, lakes and ponds are the common property of the people of the State, and are forever inalienable. SEC. 2. Water rising upon lands in private ownership is the property of the owner of such lands until allowed to escape by natural flow beyond such lands, when it becomes the common property of the people of the State. SEC. 3. Water developed in tunnels and wells is the property of the person first developing it, and may be controlled and disposed of as other property, but not wastefully, until suffered to escape, when it becomes the common property of the people of the State. SEC. 4. When water developed in a tunnel ceases to flow after the opening of another tunnel in the vicinity, in which a similar flow of water is developed, the presumption is that the water belongs to the first tunnel, but this presumption may be rebutted by sufficient proof. SEC. 5. Water falling in rain and snow is the property of the person upon whose lands it falls, and may be retained thereon by dams, reservoirs, or other devices, and may be disposed of as other property until it escapes by natural flow from such lands, when it becomes the common property of the people of the State. SEC. 6. The waters hereby declared to be the common property of the people of the State are devoted to the sustaining of life, to domestic and sanitary uses, and to the watering of stock, which shall always be preferred uses. SEC. 7. In the arid and agricultural portions of the State, subject to the preferred uses declared in the preceding section, all lands susceptible of irrigation from the waters therein mentioned are entitled to such waters for irrigation to the full requirement of the soil for agricultural purposes. Those parts of the State are declared to be arid, The Dynamite Quarter: An explosion of dynamite in London on last Saturday nearly wrecked the Tower and the House of Commons. Stormy persons were injured more or less seriously and the damage to property is estimated at one hundred thousand pounds sterling. All England is excited over the cottage, and it is, of course, ascribed to Fenland; but the crime is also laid to the Bedalists who infest the metropolis. However that may be, it was the most successful courage of the kind ever perpetrated, and the inability of the police to get any clue to the offenders makes the people of the harassed city almost panic-stricken. Upon the receipt of the news, Senate Bayard introduced the following resolution: Revolved. That the Senate of the United States has heard with indignation and profound sorrow of the attempt to destroy the House of Parliament and other public buildings in London and to imperil the lives of innocent and unsuspecting persons, and hereby express its horror and detention of such monstrosus crimes against civilization. The consideration of the resolution was postponed until Monday, to enable the Senate to receive further information upon the matter, and it was brought up again on that day and passed by a vote of 63 to 1. The Senator voting against the resolution was Riddleberger of Virginia. He said that there was an open state of war between certain of the Irish race and England. The resolution which was before the Senate expressed the indignation of the Senate at the blowing up of certain buildings in which the laws of England were made, laws which guaranteed liberty to the subjects of Great Britain. That reason was not sufficient for Mr. Riddleberger. "We could not," he said, "be expected to approve all methods of the Irish people, but while we were ourselves preparing and experimenting with dynamite to blow vessels out of water and to drown people in the ocean, it scarcely becomes us to say that people who did not constitute a government and could not make a proclamation of war, should not use the same implements of war we would use under the same circumstances. Put any of us in a country where we could not make a proclamation of war, should we not use the same instruments of war that we would use under the same circumstances? Put any of us in a The spasmodic warfare between competing Eastern roads is raging savagely. The Pennsylvania Railroad has cut rates to such an extent that it is issuing immigrant tickets to San Francisco for $38. This unprecedentedly low rate will probably induce a large immigration. The belligerent spirit has also engrafted itself upon the Transatlantic Steamship Companies, and the result is that an immigrant can now get from Bremen to Portland, Oregon, for $49. The talk is going all over London that port wine is a cure for the gout. It was thought formerly that port had a good deal to do with the production of that disease. Port, however, has long been out of vogue, and a gent still goes on merrily, it is natural enough to think that there was some error in the scription of a cause. Why the old alleged cause should now be prescribed as a cure is not clear, unless it is felt that the wronged wine needs righting, and those engaged in its production have been made to suffer long enough. Dr. Zintgraff's African Expedition carried with it one of the most remarkable of American inventions—the phonograph. The German explorers wished to make a thorough study of every country and tribe through which they should pass, and decided that the dialects must be accurately sampled. Upon their return to the European settlements they may be expected to contribute to the scientific museums at Bonn an interesting assortment of phonograms of the barbarous tongues and dialects of the Dark Continent. The preacher and the school teacher are peculiarly situated. The former can from his pulpit utter whatever sentiments and opinions he pleases, and a due regard for the place prevents any demonstration of disproval of his utterances on the part of the audience. The teacher can also say what he pleases, and the urchin perforce withholds criticism for fear of the switch. But the episode in a Washington church, detailed in another column, shows that the time-honored custom of non-protest has been broken. Mrs. Stanton and Miss Anthony gave the preacher a piece of their minds. It is quite amusing to read the criticism of Inspector Byrnes, the chief of the New York detectives, upon the failure of the London detectives to discover the authors of the dynamite crimes. If what we read about the New York detectives is true, Mr. Byrnes had better ponder over the much quoted quotation about the beam in your own eye and the mote in the eye of somebody else. Whenever it shall come to pass that the New York detectives discover the autopsies of the crimes perpetrated daily in that city, it will be time enough for their chief to criticize the police of other places. The list of crimes perpetrated in New York during late years, and which have baffled the skill of the detectives of that city, is a very long plea of the State. Sec. 6. The waters hereby declared to be the common property of the people of the State are devoted to the sustaining of life, to domestic and sanitary uses, and to the watering of stock, which shall always be preferred uses. Sec. 7. In the arid and agricultural portions of the State, subject to the preferred uses declared in the preceding section, all lands susceptible of irrigation from the waters therein mentioned are entitled to such waters for irrigation to the full requirement of the soil for agricultural purposes. Those parts of the State are declared to be arid, within the intent of this section, in which the increase of the agricultural products of the soil will compensate for the cost of construction and maintenance of the necessary means of artificial irrigation. Sec. 8. The owner of lands watered by the natural overflow of a stream has a right, by ditches constructed so as to prevent waste in the channels above, to sufficient water for the reasonable irrigation of such lands during the times of such natural overflow. Sec. 9. Where the waters of a source or series of sources of supply are not sufficient for the reasonable irrigation of all the lands to which such waters may be brought, those first in the actual enjoyment shall have a preferred right to the extent of such use, by works so constructed as to prevent unnecessary waste. But no person has a right to a wasteful use of water, either in its carriage or application to the soil. Sec. 10. It is unlawful for any person or corporation, to the injury or deprivation of another, to divert or carry through any ditch, pipe, or flume, any water in excess of the necessary requirements of the lands under cultivation and depending upon the use of such waters: Any person making such unlawful diversion shall be liable for all resulting damages at the suit of any person injured, and may be enjoined from continuing such diversion. Sec. 11. The common waters of the people of the State shall be subject to distribution for use and consumption, to meet the necessary and reasonable requirements of the people, in the following order of priority: First—To municipal corporations, for the purpose of supplying cities and towns with pure water for domestic, sanitary, municipal and urban purposes. Second—To private corporations formed to meet an actual want for the same purposes. Third—To works constructed and owned by irrigating districts for the common irrigation of all the lands susceptible of irrigation within the district, and to works constructed and owned by private persons and corporations for the purpose, in whole or in part, of distributing and supplying water for irrigating the lands of others. Sec. 12. The use of waters for mills and other mechanical purposes is not affected by this Act, when such use can be made without material diminution or defilement. Sec. 13. The provisions of this Act do not apply to ditches constructed and used for mining; but no ditch shall hereafter be constructed for mining purposes which shall diminish the volumes of water required for acclimation of the State. Mr. Riddleberger. We could not, he said, "be expected to approve all methods of Irish people, but while we were ourselves preparing and experimenting with dynamite to blow vessels out of water and to drown people in the ocean, it scarcely becomes us to say that people who did not constitute a government and could not make a proclamation of war, should not use the same implements of war we would use under the same circumstances. Put any of us in a country where we could not make a proclamation of war, should we not use the same instruments of war that we would use under the same circumstances? Put any of us in a country where we could not exercise the God-given right of owning a foot of land, even though earned with the sweat of our faces, and then see what methods we would employ. He did not mean to justify the method, but he would not vote for any resolution that might be distorted into an expression of sympathy or even of common fellowship with a country that knows nothing but cruelty and gives none of her subjects the right to exercise liberty that we on this side of the Atlantic believed to belong to every people. A short time ago the Houses of Congress had heard of a judicial opinion rendered "over yonder" punishing some Irishmen, in which the Judge violated every principle of the common law, every principle of the bill of rights, every principle of the Magna Charta, every principle of the constitution, in determining questions of fact for the jury. Had any expressions of indignation been heard in the Senate? No. If an English Judge having Irishmen on trial before him, could say to them jury, "these are the facts," without eliciting any expression of indignation on the part of the United States Senate he (Riddleberger) must beg to be excused from expressing sympathy for the blowing up of the building in which the laws were made that were administered by such Judges. We are so neutral here, he continued, that some Senators think we ought not to dig a ditch (alluding to the Nicaragua canal) without their consent of England; so neutral that we could not give an opinion about anything regarding England except an adverse opinion about poor struggling Ireland. Although Ireland's natural increase, Riddlerberger continued, had been equal to that of England there were not, by two millions as many inhabitants in Ireland today as there were twenty years ago. Such was the result o' oppression. Any resolution that might be passed here would be construed as a resolution of sympathy and fellowship with this government of cruelty and tyranny. The resolution before the Senate he regarded as mere expression of sympathy with this British government and he would not vote for it. The Scene of the Explosion. The Tower of London is situated on east side of the Thames, and it derives its name from "White Tower" from fact that William the Conqueror finished work which was originally begun by Julius Caesar. It was as far back as 1078 when William took task in hand, and it was not completed until 1098. At that era she White The Orange Markot [Sacramento Record-Union.] "Oranges, sweet oranges, ten cents a dozen," can be heard from the retail huckster daily in every street in this city. But a few years ago this delicious citrus fruit was to be found only at fruit stands, and was considered cheap at ten cents each, or three for a quarter of a dollar. During the past few years, however, orange groves have sprung up all over the State, from San Diego to Shasta, until the fruit has almost become a drug on the market. The wholesale dealers of this city within the past few weeks have been receiving large shipments from Los Angeles and Riverside; in fact the invoices are so large and numerous that there is a prompt of the market becoming glutted. In conversation with a reporter yesterday one of the largest commission merchants in this city, and one who has been in the business for many years, said he had no fears of overproduction. A few years ago the oranges sold in this market, and in fact throughout central and northern California, were an insignificant and high-priced fruit. The consequence was that few people cared for them, families did not purchase them for table use, and where cases are now sold in this section single oranges were not sold them. This may look like an exaggeration, but three wholesale houses in this city have within the past five days sold 7,000 cases. The price per case ranges from $125 to $4. The naval is a large, seedless, sweet orange, and just now demands the highest price. Some three years ago oranges sold at 78 cents per box in this market, with information from the southern counties the dealers here are of the belief that this crop will be so abundant that good oranges will be sold this season as low as $1 a case. The crop of Yuba, Placer, Butte and Sacramento counties this year was largely in excess of any former year, and had quite an influence on prevailing local prices. AN ACT CONCERNING COMMON CARRIERS OF WATER, AND TO DEFINE THEIR DUTIES. SECTION 1. All owners of ditches, canals, or other structures made or used wholly or partially for the purpose of conveying, supplying or distributing water for use upon the lands of others for irrigation, are hereby declared to be common carriers of water. SEC. 2. Common carriers of water must, upon payment or tender of the legal or usual price therefor, deliver to every person applying therefor for irrigation in proportion to his customary and reasonable use or necessity, without discrimination or preference in price or otherwise to one person over another, subject, however, to reasonable rules as to time or order of delivery. SEC. 3. Whenever, from scarcity or otherwise, a common carrier is unable to deliver water to all applicants to the full amount of their customary use, it shall nevertheless be the duty of such carriers to make a proportionate delivery, without discrimination in favor of any, to all persons in similar circumstances usually receiving water by means of its ditches or other works, that all may be served alike, and share equally the common scarcity. SEC. 4. Common carriers of water may require water rates to be paid in advance, but if not so paid and water be supplied upon request, any amount unpaid shall become a lien upon the land upon which the water was used or delivered for use. SEC. 5. The rates or compensation to be collected by any common carrier of water shall be fixed annually by the Board of Supervisors, etc. The latest novel production of Maine prohibition was a Walda county grand jury, who investigated himself from serving in twenty-four liquor cases by getting so drunk he had to be returned from the courtroom by the Sheriff. The Tower of London is situated on the east side of the Thames, and it derives its name of "White Tower" from the fact that William the Conqueror finished the work which was originally begun by Julius Cassius. It was as far back as 1078 when William took the task in hand, and it was not completed until 1098. At that era the White Tower loomed up supremely and took the place of the towers of the city, which included some of the walls which were washed away by an overflow of the Thames. The tower now known as the White Tower was frequently used by Henry III, as a residence. It occupies an area of thirteen acres and is surrounded by a most which was constructed in 1190 and which has built behind it a double row of buildings, or other towers and fortifications. To better explain the place, the "Walda of London," by Augustus F. C. Harvey quoted from. Speaking of the White Tower, he says: "There is a glorious view from the leads on the summit of the White Tower Greenwich is visible on a fine day. It here that King John imprisoned the bestful Mand, daughter of Fitzwalter of Hard Castle. The tower vanilla were na pricen." Descending the stairs there could be seen the remains of old staircases built years before; also holes in which it is said the rock was upon which Anne Ankong was tortured visible in the floor of the vanilla. In building Guy Fawkes was imprisoned his companions, and it is related of him after thirty minutes during which he tortured, he confessed. The walls of prison are covered with inscriptions and various prisoners." The sights usually shown to visitors the armer and regalia of centuries Twelve smaller towers encircle the larger White Tower. There is one lower, the trance to which is known as the bloody Amending the stairway, rooms full of cars and great reminiscences will be On the wall of a small chamber on the floor is an inscription made by the High House, who was an active partisan of Queen of Saints. Another room on the floor is exhibited on one whose wife murdered Buckinghamshire killed on this way in prison. The Old National Highway was also maintained the same even when it was closed. DYNAMIC CHANGE A dynamic in London on nearly wrecked the Tower and Hammerham. Nathan parmesan of him seriously and the property is estimated at one hundred pounds sterling. All had over the outrage, and it attributed to Fenians; but the to the Socialists who infest However that may be, it successful outrage of the kind, and the inability of the clue to the offenders makes the harassed city almost panic.

He said that open state of way between Irish race and England. The wish before the Senate exhagination of the Senate at the certain buildings in which the land were made, laws whicherty to the subjects of Great reason was not sufficient for anger. "We could not," he added to approve all methods of, but while we were ourselves experimenting with dynamite out of water and to drown ocean, it scarcely becomes us to see who did not constitute a proof could not make a proclamation should not use the same war we would use under theances. Put any of us in a we could not make a proclamation should we not use the same war that we would use under instances? Put any of us in a INVESTIGATING THE Irrigation System. Hon. Alfred Deakin, Member of the Parliament of Victoria, Australia, who is Commissioner of Public Works for the colony of Victoria, is in San Francisco in company with John Lamout Dow, M. P., and one of the editors of the Melbourne Leader. They came here to investigate the irrigation problem in this country. Mr. Dow says that this problem is the most difficult of any with which the Australian colonies have to contend. Last summer the losses of the sheep and cattle owners from severe and long-continued droughts were unprecedented. Numerous owners of 100,000 sheep found their flocks reduced to 20,000, and some as low as 10,000. The Governments of several of the colonies have determined to take vigorous measures to provide against a recurrence of these disasters. In these measures the Government of Victoria has taken an active lead.

Dr. Patten, President of the Howard University, presched a sermon in the Congregational church in this city to-day on "Woman and Skepticism," in the course of which he spoke of the Woman Suffrage Convention held here recently, and expressed the opinion that when women are given too much liberty they branch off into skepticism and immorality. He said, among other things, that the lives of such women as George Eliot, Madame Roland and Harriet Martineau exemplified the truth of this assertion, and he referred to Victoria Woodhull as a representative of the woman suffrage movement. Among his audience were Miss Susan B. Anthony and Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and, on the conclusion of the service, they walked to the platform and upbrained Dr. Patten for his utterances. Miss Anthony said to him that if his mother were living she would take him across her knee and spank him; but Mrs. Stanton interrupted her and said: "On the contrary, let me congratulate Dr. Patten. I've been trying for years to make women understand that the worst enemies they have are in the pulpit, and now he has illustrated it beyond question." Without giving Dr. Patten time to reply, the women hastily left the church. To-night Rev. Olympia Brown replied to Dr. Patten from the pulpit of the Universalist church. A Fruit Pest Bill. The bill introduced by Senator Whitney to prevent the spreading of fruit and fruit-tree pests and diseases and to provide for their extirpation requires that orchardists shall disinfect their trees when infected prior to sale, and that boxes in which fruit contend. Last summer the losses of the sheep and cattle-owners from severe and long-continued droughts were unprecedented. Numerous owners of 100,000 sheep found their flocks reduced to 20,000, and some as low as 10,000. The Governments of several of the colonies have determined to take vigorous measures to provide against a recurrence of these disasters. In these measures the Government of Victoria has taken an active lead. The Legislature of Victoria has from time to time, authorized the construction of large public works for the conservation and distribution of water to the inhabitants of different districts, and large sums of public money have been advanced by way of loans to the local governing bodies and water-works trusts to aid in the construction of such works. So far, however, all irrigation schemes have been based upon plans borrowed from India and carried out by engineers imported from that country. "The light thrown upon the subject, however, by my investigations on my previous visit to this country, has convinced our Government that in order to insure the greatest measure of success future works must be modeled upon the American system, especially as carried out in Southern California." The gentlemen will make a tour throughout California, portions of Mexico, Utah and Colorado. The interior of the Washington Monument is to be lighted under a contract with the Edison Company, with 125 electric lights, the uppermost of which will be nearly 550 feet in the air, and the highest in the world.

Violation of either of these provisions is a misdemeanor. In addition orchardists are required to gather fruit infested with insects once a week from their orchards and destroy it, and it is made the duty of fruit inspectors to condemn fruit imported from other States, also boxes and packages, when infected, and have the proper disinfection performed. All trees and fruit shipped is required to bear the name of the producer, and any person shipping trees or fruit from localities quarantined by the State Board of Horticulture, is guilty of a misdemeanor. It is made the duty of the Board of Horticulture to enforce the law, and orchardists, nurserymen and fruit dealers are required to disinfect their possessions within twenty-four hours after being notified by the proper officers that the same must be done. The bill is very stringent in all its provisions. Honey Producers Against the Spandish Trendy: SYRACUSE, Jan. 22—At the annual session of the Northwestern Bookkeepers' Association to-day resolutions were passed, after sharp discussion, asking the United States Senate to strike out of the Spanish-American treaty the article admitting Cuban honey into this country free from duty. The resolutions declare that many persons have been induced to engage in the bee business by the present duty of two cents a pound, or 20 cents a gallon, on imported honey; that Cuba has the highest honey-producing flora in the world, and will, even under the existing tariff, become a furnitable rival. For the Benefit of White-Honey WASHINGTON, Jan. 21—Henry introduced in the House to day a bill to provide that wine growers be allowed to ten years ago, while allowing the ten of yeasts.
