THE MECHANICS' STOKE.' 'm* WE REPRINT THE FOLLOWING REVIEW OF OUR ESTABLISHMENT AND Its Different Departments, From the Annual Business Review of the SACRAMENTO RECORD-UNION," published in their issue of January 1, 1880.

HOW THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY AKD COUNTRY ARE ADVANTAGED. A few Practical Considerations worthy careful perusal and thought. There is scarce a man, woman or child of intelligence in California but has heard of the MECHANICS' STORE, Sacramento (WEINSTOCK LUBIN, proprietors), X and Fourth streets. Its history is phenomenal, but not more so than its methods of business. Its growth has no parallel in the commercial annals of the State. But this growth has been the legitimate result of the strict application of business principles all men should understand and practice. The trade of the house is both wholesale and retail, and is conducted exclusively and unwaveringly upon a CASH BASIS. More than this, "ONE PRICE" is the uniform rule with rich and poor, high and low, friend or a rale as unalterable as the laws of the Medes and Persians. The firm is a direct importer, and recently has so perfected its system that with greater truth than ever it may be said it has almost entirely done away with middlemen, and brought manufacturer and buyer face to face at the counter in Sacramento. Whoever buys at the Mechanics' Store does so on a level with all other buyers and under the assurance that neither favor, affection, patronage or friendship gives one an ad- vantage over the other, and under the guarantee that at this establishment all men are treated alike as purchasers. A child can comprehend the justice, independence and fairness of this system. But in matter of judgment favor is shown, not to one, or a class, but to all. How By placing all buyers upon an exact level, as all goods are plainly marked and unde- viatingly rated, the poorly-posted or ill-judging customer stands exactly in the same relation at the counter of the MECHANICS' STOKE as does the most skilled expert. Whatever either buys he get therefor his moneys worth, for he pays no more in any ca^e than the fairly and lowest possible rated value of the article. It is a manufacturing firm, and makes up Men's and Boys' Underwear, in all lines; Boys' Suits Ladies', Children's and Misses' Cloaks Clothing for the Shop, the Laborer, etc., working up cotton, linen, woolen and mixed roods in large quantities. Its Factory Machines are operated with an engine, and is upon one of the lower- floors of the house. In this Department twenty-four operatives find constant employment, with a Forewoman, Cutter, two Special Workers and two Boys. The MECHANICS' STORE embraces twelve distinct Departmeats, which are noticed separately in this review in the proper sections First, Dry Goods 2, Fancy Goods 3, Men's Furnishing Goods 4, Men's Clothing 5, Boy's Clothing 6, Yankee Notions 7, Hats and Caps 8, Millinery Boots and Shoes; 10, Wholesale Department 11, Country Order Department 12, Manufacturing Department. WHOLESALE DEPARTMENT. The WHOLESALE DEPARTMENT is distinct from all others of the store, em- braces all lines kept in any of the Departments, and is conducted upon the principles hereto- fore set out. The package rates are the same to all wholesale buyers, and respond only to CASH. The capacity of the Department is equal to any demand the trade of the coast can make. Orders are tilled with greatest dispatch, and as faithfully when sent in as if the buyer were present in person. COUNTRY ORDER DEPARTMENT. The COUNTRY ORDER DEPARTMENT is a phenomenal one. It represents a vast business. Between one and two hundred orders are filled daily, and the goods dispatched mainly by mail. The selectors act for the customer, using the same judgment as if buying fur themselves, and being responsible to the proprietors for the slightest deviation from the exercise of the fairest and best judgment in behalf of the intending buyer. DRY GOODS DEPARTMENT At this establishment the Department of DRY GOODS occupies a spacious, admirably- arranged and popularly-located re-room at the corner of Fourth and X streets, which is stocked from Hoor to ceiling, and along the balcony running along one wall, with every variety of DRY GOODS, including Calicoes, Dress Goods. White Goods, Waterproofs, Linings, Felt Skirts, Shawls, Curtains, Domestics, Shirtings, Muslins, Silk, Cotton, Woolen and Mixed Goods of all grades, Blankets, Linens, Cloaks. House Linen, Ribbons, Toilet Supplies, Threads, Buttons, Dress Trimmings, etc. The Country .Order Department sup- plies any Goods of this Department in any quantity. The must distant purchaser is afforded equal advantages with the one at the counter. FANCY GOODS DEPARTMENT. The Second Department is the FANCY GOODS DEPARTMENT comprises Hosiery, Gloves and Ladies' Handwear, Corsets, Laces, Ribbons, Notions, Embroideries, Articles of Personal Adornment, Edging, Combs, Ties, Jewelry, Collars, Caffs, etc. Orders are rilled from abroad for single articles or by the package. MEN'S FURNISHING GOODS AND cl O "S 1 -IK X 3SH" "C 1 ■^JJSJDJKJSSSJEIS t !3?3:O3»'S I YANKEE NOTIONS" is a very comprehensive term. In order, however, to comprehend what Yankee Notions means, a visit should be made to that Department of the MECHANICS' STORE. The Department includes all kinds of Yankee Notions known to this trade, such as Soaps, Stationery, Pocket Goods, Novel Personal Utensils, Brushes, Combs, Pocket Cases a full line of Pocket and other Cutlery, Perfumery, Portemonnaies! Purses, and a variety of like goods far too numerous to be classified now. These and all other goods of the store are forwarded per order to any section in any large or small quantities. HAT AND CAP DEPARTMENT! The Seventh Department of the MECHANICS' STORE is the branch of the estab- lishment devoted to the Hat Trade. It embraces full lines of Men's, Youths', Boys' and Children's Hats and Caps, including all the newest styles as soon as put upon the market, and in endless variety. J Any article or package of articles forwarded in response to order, and selection is made with as much exactness and care in judgment as if the purchaser stood beside the salesman. 33wSXX.XiiZ3Sa'3ES2Cs^S^. To Ladies of Sacramento, and to all those ot the interior of California aud adjacent sections, the Eighth Department of the Mechanics' Store addresses itself. The Department is an important feature of the business. It is stocked with all goods usually found under that head. Employing fashionable milliners and competent assistants, the goods and work are sent out in the best styles. The lines in Hats, Bonnets. .Velvet*, Ribbons, Feathers and Artificial Flowers are complete, and one or many orders are filled with equal dispatch. BOOTS AND SHOES! Of the Twelve Departments of the establishment, one is devoted exclusively to Boots and Shoes. It includes very full lines of Men's, Youths' and Boys' Boots and Shoes, Infants', Misses' and Ladies' Shoes. Slippers, Ties, etc., and full lines of Rubber Foot Wear. There is no fashionable, serviceable and novel article in this line which the department cannot supply. Country orders receive as much attention as if the buyer were present. The above review speaks for itself, and needs no comment on our part. We will content ourselves by simply saying that although in the past we have worked hard for the benefit of patrons and the public, yet for the future we intend to work still harder, and give to all the full benefit of our efforts. To those living in the interior we cheerfully send a Price List and samples free on application. ADDRESS ALL LETT tt 8 Weinstock Lubin, Nos. 460, 402, 404, 406 and 408 X st., Sacramento, Cal. SACRAMENTO, TUESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 20, 1880. PEOPLE'S STORE.- W^'^eyA S3- IXTECRITY IS THE VITAL SPARK OF I'O.II.IIERCIAL LIFE. E.N'EIM'Y IS THE [.If. WHEEL mat BY STEAM,* AXD day because the Lake Merced scheme had conic to the front. The motive of Spring Val ley v. is that they would hai to pay taxes to assist in purchasing a rival water privilege. This bill had not yet i- m explained to his satisfaction. The question wi Who represented San Francisco? The legislative delegation favored the repeal of this Act, while the B .ard of Supervisors of that city thought it best that Lake Merced should be purchased. Ha read the Act proposed to be repealed, and thought it. was an Act- in the interest of the people of San Francisco. The people of San Francisco in their sovereign capacity were the best judges of the value of Lake Merced. The Senate should allow the peo ple of Sail Francisco to vote up.m the proposition as to whether they would pay 41,500,000 for that lake or not. This law had been on the statute books for four years, and the people of San Fran cisco had never before discovered that it was such a bad law. He was in favor of letting the Rogers Act* 1 remain on the statute books. By the repeal of this Act the Legislature would tie the hands of San Francisco in the future and place it at the mercy of Spring Valley. Mr. Dickinson said that he had taken the steps he had in favor of the repeal of the Rogers Act, because public opinion was in favor it, All the legislative representatives on the Republican ticket in San Francisco at the last election pledged themselves, among other thinjs, to the repeal of this Act. lie would undertake to say that in its present form the question never could be submitted to the people of San Francisco. lie read the Act, and snowed that there were two Boards of Commissioners pro vided for.

Mr. Tyler gave notice that he would on to-mor row move to amend Rule No. 2, so as to provide that business shall be taken up each day where it was left off on the preceding Jay. SECOND READING Ol- RILLS. Assembly Bills Nos. 53, 54, 65, and Joint Resolu tion No. 2 'were read a second time. Mr. Anthony moved to amend Assembly Bill No. 55, fixing the pay of members of the Legislature at 48 per day, by striking out $8 and inserting 40. Mr. Anthony— Mr. Speaker, it is well understood by my constituents, though tliev represent a very small port of the State, that it should be the duty of this, the first Legislature under the new Constitution, to make a vigorous effort for the re duction of salaries. We have given to the people certain pledges— at least some us have— t oat we would stand up in favor of retrenchment as well as reform, and it is a fact that cannot be successfully gainsayed, that the great masses in this State, so far as rands meats are concerned, are poor. It is a fact that all over the State there are a vast number of talented, honest, energetic men, who are endowed with every quality necessary to fit a man for public life, who would be glad to perform the duties de volved upon us here in this Legislature for much less than 40 a day. They would be willing to do it for $5 a day. They wou d save mosjay also, by being prudent aud careful in their expenses, and meet all the demands of the people of Sacramento, get good quarters in which to live, and save more money than they could at any other business. In view of these facts, I say, here and now, that when the Constitution says here is a limit beyond which the Legislature shall not go, but as much lens as they choose, that we ought to cut off $2. I say we can well afford to drop off It would not be very much, it is true, but it would amount to con siderable in the aggregate, and if we do not start in soon in the direction of economy, and begin *o cur tail expenses, that we will toon find ourselves in a worse condition financially than we are to-day.- 1 am very much in earnest in regard to this matter, ana if we adopt this amendment it will be the beet day's work we have done. Let us begin the reform at the top; let us commence with ourselves, and then we shall show to the people that we arc sincere in our efforts to secure a more economical adminis tration of the affairs of State. The days of high salaries have passed. Mr. Mayrell— Mi* Speaker, I am in favor of re form. But, sir, there are two kinds of reform, and one is political capital reform. What better thing could monopolies want than to have the pay of members of the Legislature reduced down to noth ing? Why would monopolies want that Why, be cause it would place it beyond the power of any poor man to represent a poor constituency upon this floor. It would be an easy thing to find men who would come here and serve for nothing. They could afford to serve gratuitously. The power that Bent a man here could afford to pay him a good and suf ficient per diem. Talk about eight dollars a day; why, air, I, as a mechanic, within the last eight years in this State, until these hard times have per vaded tin State, have earned eight dollars and ten dollars a day at my irade. lam always in favor of laying i..m tuch wages as his work deserves. Eight dollars a day is not too much for any man. .When ever there has been any attempt made here to cut down the pay of attaches I have opposed it. Why, sir, you take into eon side rati the labor-saving machinery and the prolific soil, any man, if it was not for conceited taxation would make eight dollars a day fur his labor. Then why not pay a represent ative of the people eight dollars a day Ido not think that the gentleman's' constituency wants bio to work for any less. Ido not think they are clam oring for reform with such a vengeance. Why, sir, if a man does his duty to the people it is necessary for him to labor at least three months before he takes his scat in the Legislature. It is necessary for turn to read up and prepare himself. There is a cry of reform that is a sort, of hypoocritical cry, generally styled political molasses to catch flies. Tliis kind of reform I want nothing of. I represent the nobility of labor, and I contend for a just com pensation for labor, and I shall never vote to cur down the pay of a solitary individual who earns his money. Mr. Anthony called for the ayes and noes. (No second.) The Question was put and the amendment lost. Mr. Anthony said he thought his call bad been seconded. The r?:\KKR— Is the call seconded Messrs. May and Levee seconded the call. J Mr. Tylbr— I raise the point of order that the re sult has been announced, and the ayes and noes can not now be demanded. Overruled. Mr. Tvler— Mr. Speaker, before that vote is taken I want to make a few remarks. 1 agree very thor oughly with my friend to the right from San Fran cisco, that there are various kinds of reform. Iho c that 'his Asser.bly will be just as nearly unanimous as it may be upon this question. I say that a man who is tit to occupy a seat upon this floor earns to the people more than $3 a day. And if it was com petent under the new Constitution to put it higher than that, I would be in fa. or of it. I have uodoubt that members upon this floor will vote up this question just exactly in accordance with the estimate that they place upon themselves, and if there is a man upon this floor who thinks his services are not worth 48 a uay The Speaker— gentleman is out of Drifter, It is not in order to allude to the motives which ac tuate any gentleman in voting. Mr. Tyler— This is my expression, that they will be governed by the estimate they put upon them selves, and if they do not think their services arc worth 4S a day then they will vote for putting the services of others at the same price. Now all these people who think their services arc not worth SS a day will vote for the amendment. The Speaker (interrupting)— gentlemimnust c me to order. That language is not parliamentary and it is intimidating the gentlemen who desire to vote. Any man has a right to vote as he sees fit, and no man bass right to impugn in advance tiie motives cf any other gentleman on this flooi. Mr. Tyler— l am not aware that I have impugned the motives of any gentleman on this floor. The Speaker— No member has a right to cost any imputation upon any other member. Mr. Tyler -I most respectfully submit that I have done nothing of the kind. [At this point the Speaker called upon the Record- Union reporter for the words spoken by the gen tleman from Alameda, which were furnished.] The Speaker— gentleman will take his seat. The Chair orders the gentleman to take his seat. Mr.'ITLER— Mr. Speaker The Speaker— The gentleman from Alameda, Mr. Tvler. Hr. Tylsk— Mr. Speaker, I said this: I suppose every member on this floor has the right tops] to every legislator who comes hereafter just exactly as much as he is entitled to receive under the Consti tution, provided it is not more than he thinks bis services are worth. I suppose every gentleman upon this floor, if he believes his own services are not worth more than that will be governed in his action to a certain extent by that estimate. I say that all those who believe the services of legislators who are fit to occupy seats upon this floor arc worth 48 a day will vote down that amendment. Mr. May— Mr. Speaker, I am sincerely in favor of the amendment offered by the gentleman from Santa Cruz, Mr. Anthony, aud it would have pleased me better if he had said 95. 1 would vote for And I want to say now, that when I cast my vote I don't wan" any gentleman to suppose that when] vote for a day I consider my services worth that amount. It baa been my fortune to he a merchant for some years past, and 1 have not been able to make 45 a day. Now there may be gentlemen here- no doubt there are— whose ponderous intellects would be cheap at 4100 A day, but the State is too poor to pay them what they are worth. The ques tion to be decided i**-, what is a fair per diem for members. I might be dear V- the State at 50 cents a day. Another gentleman might be worth 4500 a day. That is not the question. The question to be decided here is, all things considered, what is fair and just to members of the Assembly as well as to the taxpayers of California. Now I shall vote for the 44. a day for members. I think it was a master stroke in the honorable Convention which framed the Constitution to say that while they themselves were drawing 410 a day, the members of the Legis lature should only draw 48. 1 look upon it with feelings of admiration when I turn over the little volume that I carry always in mv pocket, con sulting it until it is well nigh worn out, and every time 1 see that clause where it says nothing herein contained shall be construed to prevent the incoming Legislature from paying us ten dollars a day," and then in another place Fay that the Legislature shall never pass any Act to give themselves more than eight dollars a day. my heart swells in the contemplation of it. lam in favor of going them two dollars better, and say that we will work for six dollars a day, and when their little hill comes in for us to pay, why, I won't do it. Mr. Mclxtoku— Mr. Speaker, I don't believe in this talk about reform and cutting down wages. The last Legislature fixed it at eight dollars a day, and the people are satisfied with the price. I did not conn- here to make political capital. I came here to work for the people. I think it is to the interest of the State 'hat the members should be paid for their labor. Why, sir, I can make more at farming than I can here. lam perfectly willing to go upon the record. I am for eight dollars a day, because that is the price recommended by the State Gran that is little enough. It is harder work here than it is on the ranch.

Laid on the tabic. A number of private bills were passed. Thefjiei ..I order, the bill to prevent cruelty to an imals in transportation, was. called np. Davis of Illinois said that any bill imposing condi tions, upon such an important baseness as the trans portation of livestock to the seaboard was an im portant one, and "hould be scrutinized by the Sen ate before it bee-aim- a law. that the interests of the shipper and owner of live stock should lend sufficient protection from cruelty, hut it was a lamentable fact that abuses had existed and that cuttle bad reached their destination in an unlit condition— unfit to be used (or food. The peo ple could force Congressional legislation, and a bill was accordingly pasted in 1872. question was whether that law was not batter than the proposed una. By the existing law cattle must be unloadad once in every twenty-eight hours for food, water and rest for at least five hours, unless] they are car ried in boats or ears in which 'they .an have food, water and space and opportunity to rest. The bill proposes to take sway the obliga tion that cattle be unloaded except at intervals of sixty boms, if they can obtain i...jd on the cars. This prevents their getting rest, because they .-an not rest on the can, sod be believed rest as neces sary as food and water. To keep animals standing sixty hour, was iTutl. Thurmau spk. at some length against the bill, as it stands, though lie favored its object, and would support it if amended.

A SENSATIONAL STORY. The telegraph yesterday a story of a woman seventy years of age who, in Cincinnati, lived thirty days without food or drink. We are unable to repose any faith in this statement. It is no doubt true that tinder exceptional circumstances persons have in a few cases maintained life without food as long as this, but we do not think there is a case on record where life was maintained thirty days without food and drink. It is or ought to be a well known fact that the lack of food can be endured much longer when water is access ible than when it cannot be obtained. The average period during which a healthy man can live without food or drink ia from eight to ten days, though it has frequently happened that the deprivation of all sustenance for three days has been attended with fatal consequences. Where brain disease is present prolonged fasting is endured more easily, and with less exhaustion, than by sane persons. It is said in the account under discussion that the last words of the dying woman were "Bread! Bread! Bread!" This too we are compelled to set down as imaginative, for we do not believe it possible that, even supposing a woman of seventy able to fast for thirty days, she would be able to speak at the end of that time. The whole story, indeed, bears a suspicious resemblance to the accounts of those "fasting girls" whose impositions have at various times cauted so much useless controversy. Of one of these it has been gravely asserted that she fasted for six or sevenyears, and her friends stoutly maintained that during this time she never once tasted food. A really scientific test of one of these cases was once made, and then the girl did actually die of starvation at the end of nine days. She was ob stinately determined not to confess the truth, which, of course, was that she had taken food secretly and her infatuated parents actually permitted her to kill her self. They wire very properly prosecuted and punished, but for all that there have ever sines been plenty of simple and credu lous folks who were ready to believe in wonderful stories of fasting. Since we under: to teach physiology in the public schools, however, this clas3 of fables ought to be laid en the shell with other relics of barbarism. CABUL. The news from Cabul during the past week has been more indicative of success for the English arms than for some time previously. Despite the gloomy predictions of opponents of tho Government it appears that General Roberts has succeeded in es tablishing himself firmly at Cabal, and that he is in no danger whatever, and well furnished with supplies. The late com bined attacks upon him having failed so conspicuously, the Afghans appear to be realizing that it is useless for them to maintain so unequal a contest. The recent successive disasters sustained .by Russia have doubtless exercised an important influence upon the Afghan leaders, more over. Twice within the past four months have Russian forces been defeated by the Turcomans, and- the inference cer tain to be drawn from these de feats will be that it is not "safe to trust to the alliance or the promises of bo weak a power. The Oriental mind re spects nothing so much as physical force, and it measures all European powers by their military prowess. If the Afghans, therefore, think that Russia has ceased to be a possible deliverer for them, they will be the more willing to cease fighting En eland, though it is very doubtful if it can be at all safe for the British Govern ment to leave the country without garri- Boning its principal strategic points heav ily. Meantime the winter is not over yet, and it remains to be seen whether the sup plies of General Roberts are sufficient to subsist his force until the passes are open again. PROTECTION FOR THE FORESTS. We have observed with satisfaction the j appointment in the Assembly of a Com- mittee on Forestry, and hope the Senate will follow tbi3 good example. The need of legislation for the protection of the for- ests of the State is extremely urgent. The Congressional report upon this subject, j published a year ago, confirmed the giavest apprehensions of those who had been ob serving the rapid destruction of the timber, and demonstrated the imperative demand for protective and remedial measures. The indifference with which Congress and the State Legislatures have hitherto treated '.'.is question is not creditable to the intel ligence of politicians, and is in effect a sharp arraignment of their statesmanship. While legislators are expending all their energies upon partisan schemes and the management tt> ephemeral politics, the for ests of the country are being destroyed at a rate which if maintained must in a few years produce an actual scarcity. This, however, is' the least important con sideration. The rapid removal of the tim ber from the sides of mountain ranges threatens to produce the most serious and irremediable injury to the commonwealth, and this State has more to fear in the near future from the denudation of the Sierra Nevada- than from any other injury be side the flow of mining debris. 'When the mountains are clothed with their natural growth of timber the snows of the winter are retained where they fall, and melting slowly throughout the spring and summer, keep up a steady and moderate supply of water in the rivers and streams. But when the mountain sides are stripped of their forest growth the snows become sub ject to disastrous slides, and melting rap idly because of their greater exposure, pour down their water in swift and sud den freshets, which, rushing into the val leys, produce destructive floods, to be followed by long drought. The greed and blindnesss of man have in many coun tries 'and at different times pursued this reckless policy in regard to timber, and always with the same consequences. In France, in the Tyrol, in Switzerland, in Italy, extensive areas of fertile territory have been converted into sterile deserts in this way. Wherever the destruction of the forest growth on steep acclivities has been permitted, Nature has mercilessly in flicted the penalties she always visits upon those who violate her laws. In France, during the last quarter of a century, the Government has inaugurated vast schemes of what is called reboisement or re wooding, and an elaliorate code of forestry laws have been put in operation for the protection of the timber, and for the re habilitation of the ruined districts. In California a few more years of stolid neglect on this head will undoubtedly produce consequences of the most serious character. It will be useless to attempt to control or regulate the flood waters of our rivers in the valleys so long as the denuda tion of the Sierra is allowed to proceed as in the past. A time must come, if the; present policy is pursued, when the denuda tion will have reached a point at which the operation of natural laws will come into effect. Then the first severe snow-storm will produce avalanches which, sweeping without check down the naked mountain sides, will carry everything they encoun ter before them to destruction. Snowsheds wiil be obliterated. Mills, houses, villages, towns, whatever lies in the path of the slide, will be crushed and overwhelmed. Not improbably the communications will be completely destroyed across the mountains. And the work of the avalanche will be but the beginning of evil. The first mild weather of spring will melt the masses of snow, no longer shielded by woods, and the entire volume will be poured into the river channels, and sent in torrential form down upon the valleys. No levees can withstand the impact of such a flood. They will give way, and destruction will spread broadcast over the Sacramento val. ley. These torrents, too, will, by the force of their descent, strip the neighbor hood of their sources of the soil which could alone renew the forest growth. Their destructive energy exhausted, terrible droughts will ensue. The rivers will become unnavigable by May, the miners will be deprived of water, and every in- dusiry and interest will suffer. There is nothing imaginative in this picture. It is a mere application to California of laws which have been seen in operation a hun- dred times in other parts of the world. This is what is certain to happen if notli- ing is done to preserve our forests, and it may be added that it is certain to happen within the lives of men who are now mid- die-aged. In urging remedial action upon Congress and the State Legislature, there- fore, we are only asking that the State may be protected against calamity the danger of which cannot for a moment be ques tioned. THE EVIDENCE OF ACCOMPLICES. A bill has been introduced in the Assem bly which we believe to be against public policy. It is to amend the Penal Code (Section 1111), and is in the following form "A conviction cannot be had on the testimony of an accomplice, unless he "is corroborated by other evidence, which in itself, and without the aid of testimony "of the accomplice, connects the defend- ant with the commission of the offense; and the corroboration is not sufficient if "it merely shows the commission of the "offense, or the circumstances thereof.' The Code at present provides that a con viction cannot be had on the. testimony of an accomplice, unless he is corroborated by other evidence which tends to connect the defendant with the commission of the offense. The change proposed consists in the omission of the two words, "tends to,", and in thus requiring that the corroborative" evidence shall di rectly and absolutely connect the defend ant with the offense. There are many crimes in which the evidence of an accom plice may be sufficient to secure conviction if the principle of the Code as at present constituted, is observed, but in which the escape of the defendant, however actually guilty, would be almost assured by the change proposed in the law. In the case i of stage robberies, for example, where the identification of defendants by their vic tims was frustrated by the common prac tice of wearing disguises, the evidence of an accomplice might be the only means of securing conviction, but that evidence would be of no validity under the 'new law. The plea for the -change put forward by those who urge it is, we believe, the occasional failures of justice which have heretofore occurred, by which innocent men have been punished. So long, however, as the machinery of justice is human, it will be fallible, and sometimes innocence will suffer. But such instances are far too few to justify a change in the law which is so plainly in the inter est of evil-doers, and which savors so strongly of an attempt on the part of crim inal lawyers to make their professional work easier. The avenues of escape from I justice are already far too numerous, and it cannot be for the public good that they should be multiplied. As,' however, the subject is one upon which all public prose -1 cutors must be valuable witnesses, we sug gest to these officers the propriety of com -1 ing forward and stating their views on the proposed change in the law. PUT IT IN ITS LITTLE BED The Senator from Santa Barbara, who we believe styles himself The Lone One,'' has introduced a rather singular joint res i olution. It instructs and requests our Senators and Representatives in Congress to use their influence to secure the free i coinage of silver, the retirement of National j Bank notes, and the prohibition of the I issue of interest-bearing bonds in time of peace. Senator Chase entertains very peculiar views upon a great variety of question?, but his financial notions are ultra-crotchety. We do not know how they might answer in the peculiar sur roundings of the "Summer Laud," but we are very certain that they are in no respect adapted to the requirements of this i matter-of-fact world. Neither is it any way doubtful that it is incumbent on California, as the champion State of honest finance and hard money, to eschew all fantastic and preposter ous currency vagaries. What Mr. Chase asks is neither more nor less than that our Senators and Representatives should urge the adoption of a single silver standard the endowment of Congress with absolute control of the paper money of the country and the cessation of all efforts to save the people's money by fund ing the public debt at a lower rate of in terest. Now the interests of California, in common with those of the whole coun try, are diametrically opposed to each and all of these propositions, and it would therefore be extremely foolish for the Legislature to make any such proposition to our delegation in Congress. Viewing this joint resolution from the standpoint of uninspired practicality, we are disposed to think that the Committee on Federal Re lations, to which it has been referred, will do well to prepare it for the sleep that knows no waking. STATE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. The annual meeting of the State Agri cultural Society takes place to-day at 2 p. M. At that time there will be elected a President and three Directors, and all an nual and life members will be entitled to vote. It is probable that the membership will take its usual interest in this meeting, which is the initial point for a new year in the history of the Society. In one respect the meeting will be unusual, as it is under stood that there is no contest for the vari ous positions, and that the combined efforts of the friends of the Society are made in harmony in its behalf. In view of the past achievements of the State Society under his administration. M. 1).

COOLING DOWN. Tho Fusionists in Maine appear to be cooling down. They perceive that their cause is hopelessly lust, and just now the indications are that they will withdraw as best they may. But no credit will be due them for this. It must be borne in mind I that they were perfectly willing to take advantage of Garcelon's knavery, and that they were prepared to carry out the swin dle he had originated, to the end. They have manifested no public spirit, no con scientiousness, no honesty, in this whole disgraceful business, and they ought to be j retired into private life amid the contempt I and aversion of all self-respecting men, without distinction of party.

[Special to the I'.kcoed-Lxion. Washington, January 19th.— princi pal interest at the Capitol to-day centered in the President's long-expected list of nomina tions for foreign missions, lor the Governor ship of Utah and Census Supervisors. They had been carefully guarded, and were for the most part a surprise, not only to the general public, but to the greater portion of the Sen ators nod Representatives. It will be noticed that the foreign appointments are all promi nent and experienced officers in the diplo matic or consular service, Lowell being trans ferred to London from Madrid, Foster to St. Petersburg from Mexico, and Morgan to Mexico from Egypt, where he is now Consul- General. General Murray, whose name is sent in as Governor of Utah, entered the Federal army in lHlil as a boy of eighteen, and two years afterwards became Major of the Third Ken tucky Cavalry, then commanded by the heroic Colonel Jackson. Remaining con stantly in the service throughout the war, he rose to the rank of Brigadier-General, and commanded a brigade of cavalry under General Sherman in the "march to the sea." _He was United States Mar shal for Kentucky for several years, under appointment from President Grant, and is now the principal proprietor of the Louisville Commercial, perhaps the lead ing Republican paper of the Southern States. He is personally very handsome, but aside from his soldierly dash and fine presence has not made any particular impression among those who know him in Washington. On the contrary, he appears to be generally con sidered a man of large personal' vanity and small intellectual ability. The President, in making this appointment, has overruled the almost unanimous wish of his Cabinet for Governor Finery's retentioi., and has created great.dissatisfaction among the friends of va rious other candidates to whom he had given great encouragement as recently as last Sat urday. _ -day's nominations for Census Super visors have already elicited many expressions of dissatisfaction on the part of the Demo crats in Congress, who claim that one-half of those appointments should have been Demo cratic. 'On a rough estimate it would appear that the proportion of Democratic names is from one-fourth to one-third of the total number, and there is some talk of making a strong tight in the Senate to obtain a larger proportion but the whole list is, neverthe less, likely to be confirmed. Three of the appointments for California, namely: Lang ley, Hardenberg and Dana, were made on the recommendations of the Republican members of the delegation. Dunn was nominated at the instance of Senator Farley and Represent ative Berry. He is County Clerk of Solano. The Evening Star, editorially noticing the favorable action of the Hon-.-" committee on the bill to restrict Chinese immigration, "The members of Congress from the Pacific States are unanimously in favor of the bill. The question of politics does not enter into their support of this measure, and they un hesitatingly declare that no party can receive an Electoral vote from the States they re-pre sent that opposes the bill. The newspapers of these States, without regard to party, re iterate this declaration, and in view of a Presidential election it is easy to realize how much influence this announcement will have upon Congress. The States of Califor nia, Nevada and Oregon have twelve Electoral votes more than enough iv a tolerably close contest to decide the choice of President. Toe Star is of the opinion that the bill will pass the House, but as the Senators are not so free in expressing them selves upon the pending measures as the Representatives, the editor thinks it next to impossible to predict the fate of the measure in the Senate. He remarks Enough has been developed, however, to show that the old fight over the Chinese question is to be renewed, and that it will wax very warm be fore the fight is over." Intimate persons and friends of Senator Lamar now in Washington consider his con dition worse than it has been reported, and doubt whether he will ever again take an active part in public affairs. Agent I lay worth arrived here today with a delegation of Nevada Indians, consisting of Winuemucca, his son. Chief Natchez, Cap tain Jim and the dashing Sarah Winnemucca. lulled Sdilt-s supreme Court. Washington-, January 19th. Jarrett Richards, of Santa Barbara, Cal., were ad mitted to practice in the Supreme Court to day. The following decision was rendered to day William Trenouth. plaintiff in error, vs. the city and county of San Francisco in error to the Supreme Court of California. This is a controversy as to the title to certain lands in the city of San Francisco which were granted to the city by Act of Congress March 8, 1866, and by the city deeded to de fendants. Trenouth set up a claim to the lands on the ground that his grantors were in possession thereof at the time Ihe Act of lSlili was passed, and that one of them was a pre-emptor under the laws of the United States. This Court sustains the opinion of the District and Supreme Courts below, that Trenouth's grantors, upon his showing, were intruders, who never had bona fide possession of the lands in question that the right of pre emption could not have been acouired by trespass, and that the lands were claimed by the United States under a foreign title of the Pueblo from Mexico, which claim was pending before the tribunals of the United States at the time of the alleged pre-emption. Judgment affirmed with costs. Field deliv ered the opinion. The- Ex oil en of Colored People. Washington, January 19th. The Senate Committee, consisting of Vooihees. Vanc°, Pendleton, Windom and Blair, appointed to investigate the causes of the exodus of col ored people from the Southern States, com menced taking _ testimony to-day. The first witnesses examined were Rev. J. E. Rankin, pastor of the Congregational Church of this city, and Thomas Tullock, Assistant Post master of Washington, both of whom testified that they had no personal knowledge of the causes of the exodus and knew nothing of a widely-scattered circular, to which their names were appended, appealing to the people of the United States tor money to assist the f reedmen in finding a refuge from persecu tion, etc., except that they bad promised to serve as members of a Board of Audit for the Emigrant Society therein referred to. Proposed Public Pari.!. Washington, January 19th.— The House Committee on Public Lands to-day agreed to report favorably to the House and urge the passage of a bill authorizing the President to select from the public lands of the United States, in the State of California, tracts on which are in-owing either the Redwood or "'Big Trees," or both of said timbers, as he may deem proper, not exceeding in the aggre gate two townships of land, to be set apart and dedicated as public parks, for the benefit and enjoyment of the people, said parks to be under the exclusive control of the Secretary of the Interior. -Western Censns Supervisor*.

My Dear Sir 1 regret extremely that the situ ation of affairs in Colorado and New Mexico, and the absence of Sheridan, renders it impossible for me to leave my post of duly for a single day, even for so tempting an occasion. California has almost realized the Creeian fable of Aphrodite, the Uoddess of Love and Beauty, who cams forth a perfect woman from the foam' of the sea. With her majestic harbors and cities, with her gold glittering in the western sunlight, her luxury and extravagance rivaling the oldest cities of the earth, with her fruits and flowers gladdening the eye of tbe most refilled, and with railroads and telegraphs everywhere, California stands forth to-day the envy of mankind. No won der, then, that those who remember her as a poor, subjugated .Mexican province hen bread had to be imported from Chili and Quay mas when tortillas de nuns y Irigo, and earnest, were the best to be had when the traveler from Monterey to Sutter's Fort required tm days for bis journey, and had to carry his own food 00 hi. horse or mule, slept l.v the roadside on bis sad dle blanket, wrapped ill his serapa, and swim all the intervening rivers wonder, 1 repeat, that we, who remember these things, should assemble in New York t bear testimony to the American en ergy which has worked out this errand transforma tion. Therefore, although I cannot be with you in body, 1 beg you will construe me as present in spiiit. Your friend and fellow pioneer. W. T. SIIEUMAN". Vice-Admiral Rowan sent regrets.

Chicago, January 19th.~ The Trihune's Washington special says The California delegation are again becoming restive on the Chinese question, and they say that they will unite upon a measure restricting the emigra tion of Chinese. Secretary Evarts, they say, has had a year to secure the modification of the Chinese treaty, but so far as they can learn he has accomplished nothing. When the last Chinese bill was vetoed the Cali fornia delegation was assured by Mr. Kvarts that the President might have approved the bill hud some of the objectionable features been omitted. A new bill has now been pre pared to meet those objections. -Hill in Operation Rich Mineral Discovery.

Fink charged the Indian Bureau with mismanage ment and inattention to the wants, claims and rightful dues of the Utes, which had led to dissatisfaction and restlessness on their part, rendering them rife fur an outbreak..

He claimed that much of the matter of complaint argued against the Bu reau should be attributed to his predecessors. Delaware Supervisor* of Itcgisirnt ion.

Secretary Sr-hnrz anil the I'll* Question. Washington, January 19th.— Secretary Scliurz said to-day It has never been hrld by the Department of the Interior that it an in dividual member of the Ute nation committed a crime that the whole nation should be held responsible and punished therefor, but under the provisions of the treaty of 1868 if certain offenses are committed by the Utes against the whites tie Ute nation is bound to sur render the offenders, and this fact is fully recognized by Ouray. If a peaceful settle ment can be made with the Utes there is no one in the Department who desires to rive them of their reservation with out allowing them a most liberal com pensation. It is thought by some members -of the Ute delegation, now in this city, that a good many Indians will be willing to settle down in severalty upon agricultural lands on their present res ervation, and yield the balance of the land to the Government, and that those who will not do this will go peaceably to the Uintah res ervation." After some further remarks, the Secretary said "I deem it my duty to do all I can toward settling the present diffi culties without an Indian war, and without lining injustice to any one." Rights of Allen Heirs So Sell Properly. Washington, January 19th.— Supreme Court, in a Virginia case to-day, decided that under the fifth section of the treaty of the United States with Switzerland, ratified No vember 25, 1850, alien heirs have a right to sell the property of deceased and withdraw the proceeds therefrom within such time as the laws of the State where the property is situated may permit. The efficacy of tins treaty has been guaranteed by the Constitu tion, aDd it has therefore become the supreme law of the land. The fact that the State of Virginia has fixed no time within which the property must be sold makes no difference so far as the rights of foreign heirs are con cerned. Until such law shall be passed their right of action cannot be barred by lapse of time, and they are entitled to recover and sell property and to carry away the proceeds.

Sirdar Wait Mahomed, son of the former Ameer, Dost Mahomed, has entered upon his duties as Governor of Cabal and sur rounding districts. He is the best choice General Roberts could make, but he is neither strong of character nor influence. He hopes, doubtless, from the Governorship to rise later to the Ameership, to which lie has long been an aspirant. But the Government's case is in no way bettered by the present appoint ment. General Roberts has been revising fortifi cations and greatly extending his position. Two high hills on the west of the city are being crowned by strung blockhouses, which will partly command the neighboring defiles.

Landes yester day addressed a communication to the Board of Supervisors, thanking them for the cour tesy shown to him and making a number of suggestions. He thinks there are too many text-books in use, and makes some pertinent proofs, stating that at present children are required to purchase and use a text-book on "mental arithmetic" entering the second division of the third grade, though they are usually unable to read the lessons in the book. After completing this book, the child must have "Colburn'a First Lessons," con taining all that is in the first book and as simple as its name indicates. In conjunction with this there must be used Robins, Rudiments," another primary work. Next comes "Robinson's Progressive Practical Arithmetic," containing all that is in the Rudiments and the real subject-matter of the intellectual arithmetic. Then follow higher arithmetic and commercial arith metic, making six text-books, the whole Bub ject-matter of which are contained in either of the three larger works. On geography three books are used, three on grammar, three mi spelling, two on physiology, and two on philosophy. These books are all similar and contain the same information, and one is but a reprint of another to a great extent. This compels the double purchase of the same material under different covers and slightly modified titles and names. He esti mates the real number of text-books really needed as eleven, whereas twenty-five are now required, no estimate of the books of the ad vanced course, or for the object lessons on form, color, size, weight, animals, plants, morals and manners, being considered.

Repairs NEEDED.— present condition of I. street, between Twelfth and Four teenth, is such as to endanger vehicles pass in,- over it. The holes are so deep and close together as to remind a person riding over it of ''Life on the Ocean Wave." Several car riage springs have already been broken from passing upon this street. Attention should also be given to J street, between Eleventh am! Twelfth, where a similar condition is noticed. A few loads of brickbats or coarse gravel car be profitably turned to account in these localities. There is a large amount of travel Upon these streets, and the necessary repairs should at once be made.

Ths lien's Walking Match Begins— thing About it. The men's six-days go-as-you-please began at the Pavilion last night at 10 o'clock, a very good attendance marking the opening of the match. Thirteen men started, and were placarded with large numbers in this order, and by which signs they may be known throughout the race: 1, Charles Sheridan; 2, Chris. F. Mack 3, Henry McXeeve -5, Little Saxe;" 5, George E. Dunn; C, An thony Green 7, French Joe 8, Geo. Daly 9, Harry Wilson 12, Prof." Allen 13, Richard Walsh; 16, W. H. Scott; 17, G. Guerrero. Some account of these men may prove of interest Sheridan, of Irish parentage, is from San Francisco, and is a newsboy who has a stand at the corner of Kearny and Market streets. He dresses in white tights with dark trunks. He i.- 17 years old, weighs about 126 pounds, aud has Tom Collins— the original Tom as hit trainer. Charles F.

He is dressed in white tights and red close-fitting combined trunks and sleeveless jacket. Henry McNeeve is a New York lad who lias appeared, he says, in two walks at the East. His name given heie is an assumed one, and he declines to give the true one. His attire is very plain. He may be known by a peculiarly striped cap he wean. He is but a youth, is vigorous, well built, about 5 feet li}, and weighs some I'M pounds. He is under the training of Richard Barry and B. Laecor. Little Saxe," of Sacramento, is a German who prefers the name given above to his true .me. He wears a dark suit and a blue striped shirt. He is being trained by Joseph and II- ii.-.- Schneider. If he is not crazy now he is in lair way to be, since he insists that lie will make* 1,000 miles in six days, and a mile every seven minutes, and have time to spare. Considerable sport is looked forward to as a result of Saxe's ambition. He is an athletic fellow of about 33, weighs some 145 pounds, and stands 5 feet 4 inches. George E. Dunn, of San Francisco, is of American lineage so far back that no trace of other Hue can be found. He was born in Ohio. He wears a parti-colored cap, white I tights and wears parti-colored cap, white tights and dark colored trunks. Dunn is a favorite, has a eood pedestrian reputation, has made 427 miles in six days, is trained by his wife (ami is not the only husband under similar tiaining) and by Win. Daily.

Anthony Green, of Irish birth, is a well known citizen of Sacramento, has been a Deputy Sheriff and policeman. He is a fa vorite in the match, which is his second.

He has made 402 miles in six day?, though sick half the time. Green wears fleshings and dark trunks. He is trained by George Martin and Wm. Green. i French Joe is of Sacramento, lie makes his first attempt in a walking match. He was in youth a sailor. He is a well-built man of about 5 feet 8 inches, ami weighs some 145 pounds. He worked recently for Charles Coward. He is under the training of C. D, Coward and W. C. Curl. George Daly is one of twins, his other self being so near like him that few can tell them apart, even when his brother is close beside him. Daly is an Oregon youth, and this is bis first match. He is slight, light and short, and is trained by L. W. Lucas. Harry Wilson, of San Francisco, is a na tive of Sacramento. This is his second con test. He is aged 19 years, is 5 feet 8} inches in bight, and weighs 145 pounds. He wears striped short clothes and white body tights. A. D. Thompson is his trainer. Wilson is looked upon as a "goer" and "stayer." W. 11. Scott, of San Francisco, is known as the California pedestrian. In the Lawton- McXeil match he took the third prize. He took a prize in a 75-hours' walk as the best square heel-and-toe walker. In the Cotton match he broke down. In another contest lie took second money. He is a favorite in I the present match. Scott is from Louisville, i N. V.. i- aged 31, is 5 feet 'Jh inches high, weighs 159 pounds, and has a record of 455 miles. A. D. Thompson is his trainer. _ Professor Allen, of Virginia City, is the comical genius ii the track. He goes about on the .sawdust in light underclothing that wrinkles and twists about his legs in very agony as this eccentric chap corkscrews his way about the ellipse. Allen is the comedian. lie is crazy as a June bug, say his best friends, who declare it he don't do something' wonderful in the first forty-eight hours, they I will turn him out in cap and bells and full I folly, and have fun with him. He was the source of much amusement at San Fran cisco. He is nevertheless a goer, and swings and worries his way about the track at a speedy gait. He is wound up for 100 miles in 23 hours, and declares all creation shall not stop him, even if he has to walk backwards, las he sometimes docs. The "Professor" i already dubbed 'Hoe leading coined an" and Little Saxe the "low comedian" of the match. F. Williams ami H. Ramsey are his trainers. Richard Walsh, of Sacramento, is trained by J. A. Santos and G. 11. Santos. He is of Irish extraction, a beginner in six-day walks, a lithe, easy walker, about 35 years old, weighs some 135 pounds, and is about 5 feet '10 inches high. He has been in two 75-hour walks. He is in appearance and walk said jto very strongly resemble O'Leary. Walsh keeps a restaurant on Fourth street, opposite the Postoffice. A. Guerrero is a Californian by birth and lineage. He is known as the "California Cunning Boy." He was in the San Fran cisco match, and was the first one on this coast to run in contest with a horse, in which match Pinafore beat him. He walked in the San Jose ami in the last San Francisco match. He was born in Alviso, is 5 feet 10 inches high, weighs 139 pounds, and has a record of 37-"i miles in five days. A. D. Thompson is his trainer. Scott, Dunn, Green, Guerrero and Mack are at present the chief favorites. The start was a lively one, and the word was given by George Uiggs after Manager Reid had read the rules. Guerrero ran far ahead and made his first mile in 6$ minutes. During the first two hours there was much running and some good time made. The walkers all appear in good form and probably six or seven will last to the end. The match differs from the women's walk in there being a deal more of life and excitement on the track, while the action of the men does not impress one with the ling that there is going to be much suffering. i'jC _ A brass bond furnishes music during the walk hourly records are hung up and are posted at various points. Good order pre vailed last night and the match opened very j promisingly.

Harrison, late County Clerk of this county, and a member of the bar, died about o'clock yesterday morning of inflam mation of the stomach at Bakersfieid, Kern j county, where he was engaged in examining I the county records. Deceased was County j Cierk from 1873 to 1876, and previously a deputy in the office. He was a member of the Sacramento Association of California Pioneers; Washington Lodge, No. 20, F. and A. M.; Sacrameuto Royal Arch Chapter, Xo. 3 of Sacramento Council, No. 1, Royal and Select Masters, and of Sacramento Coin mandery, X... 2, Knights Templar. At a meeting of the bar, held immediately before the adjournment of the Superior Court yesterday, Judge X. Greene Curtis announced the death of Ham C. Harrison, ex-County Clerk, and sail: If your honors pleas-, the solemn intelligence has just reached this city of the death of a member of this bar, Ham C. Harrison, at Bakersfieid, this morning at 'J o'clock. I understand that it is in contem plation to hold a meeting of the bar this morning, as there are a gi eat many members now present. The remains will be brought to this city for interment ami will arrive here perhaps to-morrow. I would suggest that a committee be appointed for the purpose of drafting suitable resolutions and also to at tend the funeral, as I suppose the committee could better attend than the bar at this time. As suggested by brother Dunlap, it would be well perhaps for a meeting of the bar to be called to-morrow morning at 0 or 10 o'clock, so a3 not to interfere with the proceedings of the Court. I will move, therefore, that a committee be appointed by the Court of mem beis of the liar for the purpose of drafting resolutions, to be reported to an adjourned meeting to be held to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock. Mr. Taylor— l suggest that the Court take a recess, and that a meeting of the bar be now held for the purpose of appointing the committee. Judge Denson— Court will take a re cess for a few moments. Mr. Young moved that Judge Clark act as Chairman of the meeting, and the motion was carried. Mr. 1 Junlap moved that fudge Denson act in conjunction with Judge Clark. Carried. Mr. Welly moved that Win J. Davis act as Secretary. Carried. Mr. Dunlap You have heard the an nouncement of the death of Ham C.

[erncut, bt Tr-Laoiuu-H to tub recobd-usios.]

A SIDEWALK LEGISLATURE. AtacsTA, January 19th.— Governor Joseph L. Smith (Fusionist), nt 4 o'clock this afternoon, ad vanced to the gateway of the Capitol, headed by some fifty persons representing themselves as the Legislature, and demanded an entrance. Major Smith was informed that if he would put his request in writing it would be presented to the commaader. Admission was denied, and then the House pro ceeded to transact their business on Ihe sidewalk, there being 8 iv the House and 35 in the Senate. The reading of the records was dispensed with, and without transacting any business of account, the Legislature" adjourned to Union Hall at 10 o'clock to-morrow. The crowd then dispersed. There was great complaint on -he part of the Fusionists, but no serious disturbance occurred. Admission was denied t all parties without any favoritism, but re porters were admitted. JJ-'-i-.-vo NOMINATIONS PAYMENT REFC&ED. The Governor hies just made the following nomi nations XV. A. Luce, Superintendent of School.; Asa M. Wildes, Railroad Commissioner John D. Mynck, State Librarian. The State Treasurer to-day issued an order in structing the subordinate i in his office not to honor any demand for the payment of money from or issued by authority of either of the bodies claiming to be the Legislature of tho State until further ad vised by him. ANOTHER ACCOUNT OK THE SCENE IN FRONT OF THE CAPITOL. Bostox, Januaiy 19th.— The Herald's Augusta special says At 3:40 Wilson, of Orono, a member of the Fusionist House, arrived at the gate, and simultaneously Mayor Nash came down from the State House. Wilson demanded admission, and was refused. "By whose order he asked. "Reorder of Governor Davis," said the Mayor. Governor Davis ordered the State House cleared because no business is being transacted in any of the Departments, neither the Treasury, Secretary of State's office, nor either house of the Legislature.'' But," expostulated Wilson, I have some valu able papers in my desk, which I must have." Mayor Nash— l am sorry, sir, but lam only obey ing the Governors orders in keeping you out. The Fusionist Senator Strickland then came up. Can I go in he asked. No, sir," was the Mayor's reply. 1 ask admission as a member of the Senate of the State of Maine. My name is Strickland, and I can show you my credentials." I am ordered not to admit any one," was Mayor Nash's reply. "By whose orders t" asked Senator Strickland. Governor Davis'," was the response. "If you have any communication to make in writing, I will forward it to the Governor." ".No, sir," said the Senator, I have no commu nication to make. lam satisfied.'' At 3:45 Mr. L'.inson, President of the Fusion Sen ate, and Mr. Talbot, Speaker of the Fusion House, appeared with the Secretary and Clerk of these bodies, and demanded admission. Being refused by the Mayor, they asked entrance as members of the Legislature, only to have it a^-ain denied them. They put the same questions as Sen ator Strickland did, and received similar answers. A few minutes later Governor Smith came up and attempted to pass without asking any questions. lie was stopped by an 1 dicer's arm, when he said I demand admission as Governor." His authority was not recognized, and he was turned back. At this time at least 2,000 persons had gathered at the gate, and the throng swayed to and fro, en deavoring to hear what was going on. A Representative, supposed to bs Knowles of Bradford, who has sat but Dot acted with the Repub lican li use, began a speech, in which he denounced the authorities for refusing bim admission in the strongest terms. Presently a new diversion occurred, and a cheer drew every body's attention to where the tall form of Talbot, Speaker of the Fusionist House, was posted on the fence of th- State House yard. Clerk Gib'os stood at his feet with the record book and sundry papers. Mr. Talbot said, in substance "Since we are not permitted to enter the legislative hall by a usurping and illegal Governor, it becomes my duty to call the House of Representatives to order here. on the nearest possible spot. Gentlemen, to order." The reading of the journal was dispensed with, and an order was offered by Pl.ii-ted of Line In that the House adjourn to meet to-morrow at Union Hall, Augusta. In reading this order, Ta.bot began: "State of Maine, House of Representatives, as near as possi ble," which created a laugh in the crowd. He de clared the order adopted, and the House adjourned accordingly. Lamson, President of the Fusionist Senate, who had also climbed upon the fence, took off bis ha* and said, "Gentlemen of the Senate will please come to order." Plaistcd's order was then taken up and declared adopted in concurrence, and the Lamson Senate ad journed. The members of the Fusionist Legislature then started down State street, followed by the crowd. An indignation meeting was organized in front of the Augusta House, and speeches were made by leading Fusionists. Great excitement prevails. Boston, January 19th.— A Herald Augusta special says All is quiet about the State House this morn ing. The duty of guarding the building is in the hands of Major F. E. Nye, Acting Assistant Adju tant-General, and late of General Chamberlain's staff. The General left for Brunswick on the first train this morning. The force of police is apparently largely increased, and guards placed outside the outer doors. The pastes issued last week are net acknowledged to-day, but persons authorized are granted new ones by Major Nye and others of the staff. Every precaution is taken against the in tcrru, tion of business. The prospect is good for a quiet session of the Republican Legislature. What the afternoon will bring forth is a problem. The Fusionist Governor, Smith, is expected hourly to de" mand admission to the Executive Chamber. CAUCUS OF RSPUBUCANS THE ADJUTAXT GEXERALSHIP. Boston, January 19th. Herald's Augusta special says: A caucus of Republicans was held in the House this morning to see if a change could be made in the nomination fur Adjutant-General. Ma jor J. Gallagher, nominated Saturday, had for his opponent in the caucus then held General George A Beales, IV sion Agent at Portland for some years, and defeated him. Now it is believed by some lead ing Republicans that Gallagher, who is a young man, and has not had Beales* experience, is not so vv-el' fitted to fulfill the important duties of the office as Beales. Therefore a committee was this morning appointed to confer with Gallagher, and get him to resign the nomination, but he would not yield. The committee reported this morning to the caucus, and a reconsideration ofjthe vote of Saturday nominating him was carried, on motion of Eugene Hale, and a ballot for another candidate taken, which resulted in the election of Beales by a vote of at) to S for Gallagher. THE REPUBLIC.*.** LEGISLATURE. Both houses of the Republican Legislature assem bled at 11:30, and after the routine business, ap pointed Sprague as State Printer. The oath of office was administered to Councilors elect Robic, Campbell and Hinckley in joint Con vention. THE FUSIONISTS. The Fusionists will meet at the Coney House this afternoon in caucus, to see if a quorum cannot bs obtained previous to going to the State House. JOINT CONVENTION. The Republican Legislature, in joint convention, unanimously elected Henry B. Cleaves, of Portland, Attorn- -General, the total vote being 105. General George S. Beales, of Portland, elected Adjutant- General, he receiving 85 to 4 for Gallagher. The Republican Legislature adjourned at 1 o'clock to 10 to-morrow morning. ORDERED TO BE REACT AT A MOMENT'S NOTICE. The Herald's Biddeford special says The Bidde for.l Light Infantry received orders this morning to be in readiness to go to Augusta at a moment's no tice. Fifty men volunteered to join tbe company if allowed. This order greatly augmented the interest and excitement here. FEELINGS TESTED— THE FIRST RE?PON3K. Boston, January 19th.— The Journal's Augusta I specials say Governor Smith telegraphed to all the military companies this morning, to test their feel i ings. The purport of the order was that command -1 ing o Soars of companies should report to head- quarters every morning, and if at any time the tele graph lines were cut, to start with their companies for Augusta by rail. One of the first companies to respond was the Montgomery Guard, one of tbe Portland companies, composed of Irish-Americans, who are Democrats. Captain Lynch reports that he recognizes the powers that be. NOT TET IN POSSESSION. The acting Adjutant General has secured pos session of the bills and pay-roll of the armed guard placed over the State House under Black. Secre t try of State Chadbourne tent a communication to the Legislature announcing the fact that the papers of the State have not yet been turned over to him, and the returns of votes are not on file. FUSIONIST CAUCUS. The Fusionists here have held a caucus, and as far as can be ascertained will hold out. The caucus was secret, but not large. They cannot hold all their numbers. Their leaders have started a story that the Judges of the Supreme Court were prom ised an increase of salary for their opinion. STATE SEAL— KEYS DELIVERED UP. An order was passed by the House providing for the purchase of a new seal, should .he State seal not be found. A. J. Andrews, Secretary of the Fusion Senate, and Mark Hardin, messenger of the Governor and Council, have delivered up the keys to their respect ye offices. WILL REMAIN ON THE OUTSIDE. Aiocsta, January loth.— State House will I c closed this afternoon ■gainst the Fusion Legislature. No one will be allowed to enter the legislative halls. It is thought there will be ho trouble. coveknok DAVIS* FIRST NOMINATION. Boston, January The Herald's Augu3ta special says Governor Davis' first nomination was that of Colonel A. XV. Wildes of Skovvhegan for Kail road Commissioner. Colonel Wildes was nominated by Governor Carc;:lon, but the Democratic Council tabled the nomination. The Colonel has held the office for a number of years. DENIAL FROM SPEAKER RANDALL. Washington, January 19th.— Speaker Randall having been asked if he had sent a dispatch to tbe Fusionist Legislature in Maine to stand firm, saying they are the legal body and should not yield their rights, because it was a nutter of national im portai: that the Democrats should have control of the State government of Maine, denies having sent t 6 above mentioned or any other dispatch. THE SECOND FUSION MEETING. Augusta] January loth.— At the Fusion meeting in front of the Augusta House, James L. Lamson made a brief address, relating his grievances, that he was unable to gain admission to the State House, I hough he had as much right there as any other cit izen. He was glad to see the crowd so civil and cir cumspect. John C. Talbot, Speaker of the House, made a brief speech in the snme tone. Darius Alden, of Augusta, also made a few re marks. While there were quite a number of ugly-looking Fusionists in the'erowd, most of them were good-na tured, and joked about the position of affairs. No threats were made, but the Republicans were given to understand in many ways that this would be used against them in the next campaign. The crowd then quietly dispersed. GOVERNOR DAVIS HEARD FROM. Governor Davis, by whose orders the State House was closed against the Fusion Legislature, says he was unwilling that the farce should go on longer. Had they applied as citizens, and not as a legislative body, admissions would have been granted. He should be ashamed to occupy the position of Chief Executive and allow what had justly been termed a fiat Legislature to meet. If we had a Legislature hacked up by the Courts, the people and the mili tary, it was about time the humbug part was done away with He had in- doubt the rank and file cf tie Fusionists are all right, and have honest pur poses, and if let alone by unscrupulous leaders would take their places in ihe Legislature. I SCENES IN.SIIIE THE STATE HOUSE. Boston, January loth. Herald's Augusta special says: The scenes inside the State Home ■taring the afternoon hours were extraordinary. The granite- walled old structure resembled a federal castle waiting an attack. In every passageway, from the subterranean rooms up to the roof, were pjliceraen armed with revolvers. Policemen chal lenged the steps of the exceedingly few persons who had by special favor gained admittance. A double guard protected the Governor's room. The spacious rotunda below swarmed with men, and when any one succeeded in getting past the guards at the gate be was not admitted to the State House without scrutiny fit-in tie vigilant Senators who tended the carefully locked doors. The younger guardsmen on duty did not hesitate to show their revolvers, and were antic ipating a hot contest with the Fusionist forces, whom they believed were abcut to arrive by rail r ad. A special force of 120 or more men was de tailed to stand guard on the balcony fronting State street, Just before the arrival of the Fusion Leg is lature on the sidewalk below, this balcony force was ordered into the ball of the House, where they were drawn up in military order and divided into squares. Gen. Charles Mattucks, of Portland, was in cnmm.ii d of this contingent, and he appointed Major A. Dense n of Portland, his Adjutant. Whin the guard was about to move out to the balcony, General Mnttuck commanded th. to break step, fearing that the measured tread of so many would be heard l.v -.be Fosionlsts on the sidewalk, thirty feet distant so when the men went out they broke step and suc ceeded in making no unnecessary noise. They were all armed with revolvers, and from their elevated point in the lofty balcony could have guarded the steps leading from the State House against a force of 3,000. AFFAIRS QUIETING DOWN. ArorsTt, January 18th.— The Legislature will In vestigate promptly and thoroughly the frauds which have been discovered and the alleged bribery cases. A large number of men who have been in the city during the excitement return borne by to-night's train. The Fusion Governor. Smith, said this even ing that there was a probability that his Government would by recognized by Congress as the only lawful authority. THE STATE HOUSE DEFENSE. ArorsTA, January 19th.— Governor Davis has placed the State House defense in, charge of Major J. E. Nye, who had been General Chamberlain's Assistant Adjutant-General, although Mayor Nash was nominally in command of the police force. THE FUSIONISTS DETERMINED TO KEEP UP THEIR FARCE. L'-J Augusta, January 19th.— Failing to gain admis sion to the State House to-day has seemed to cement the Fusionists. They say that Governor Smith could have had 10,000 men in readiness at a moment's notice, but his counsel for peace has prevailed. The meeting to-night of the Fusionists seemed har monious. They have secured Union Hall, where they will hold their legislative assemblies, beginning to-morrow. The Secretary of State and Governor have secured rooms in the same building. Money enough has 1, 1 11 gur.rnteed to run their Legislature all winter, and pay every man his salary. They say they in tend to appeal to Congress, and will soon have a committee here to investigate matters. Their com mittee will report to-morrow, unanimously declar ing their body to be legal, hut have not determined 0:1 any definite plan of action. The Republicans say such a Legislature cannot hold together a week, but jn the present frame of mind of the Fusionists it is thought had they taken possession of the State House to-day they would have held it until expelled. This evening 2.'.0 pounds of ammunition was found in the office of the Superintendent of Buildings, which has been sort of headquarters for the Fu sionists, besides loaded revolvers. The guard at the State House has been somewhat strengthened. General Bealcs has been duly installed in the djutant-General's office. All is quiet to-ni,-ht, though the Fusionists are very indignant. _':;;;„.„,_.„„., Governor Davis was at his post of duty all day. A meeting of rejoicing Republicans will come off a*. Granite Hall Wednesday. BRIEF REFERENCE. The river marked 14 feet 11 inches. Two cars of immigrants will arrive to-day, and one arrived yesterday.

Meeting or AVorl. Ingram and VVmurn— ■kMfclag Accident nt Oakland. San Francisco, January 19th.— A meet ing of WorUminien and women was held yesterday afternoon in Charter Oak Hall, for the purpose of discus-sing the condition of „he laborers and craftsmen of this city, with a view of devising, if possible, measures for the relief of unemployed and destitute men and women. It appeared from the verbal reports made by representatives of the seve ral Trades Unions and labor organizations who were in attendance, that busiuess was very dull, and the present outlook in San Francisco for laborers and mechanics is cot bright that very many of the last named classes were idle and unable to obtain employ ment at any price. Several expedients for relief, such as the establishment of free soup houses, the formation of a protective society, etc., were suggested, but failed to result in any definite action. William Cross, while out hunting with a friend on Telegraph avenue. Oakland, yester day afternoon, saw what he thought was a wildcat in the bushes, about seventy-five yards off. He borrowed his friend's gun and fired, shooting a child about nine years of age, fatally it is supposed, and also wounding a young lady of about twenty. Cross deliv ered himself up to the authorities, and is now in jail. Tbe O'Brien Exlale Litigation— Answer Filed. San Francisco, January 19th. Defend ants have filed their answer to the action brought by John H. Burke against Flood and Coleman, executors of the O'Brien estate, and the Consolidated Virginia Mining Company, to recover $26,000,000, the value of tailings and working the same. The answer is sworn toby A. W. Havens, Secretary of the Con solidated Virginia Mining Company, and ad mits that the company had means to build mills to reduce its ores; that the tailings are worth only $100,000, and no collusion or fraud has been practiced against the company, nor any concealments, but the Consolidated Virginia Company has been managed for the best interests of its stock holders. Considerable space is devoted to the pending misjoinder and non joinder of the parties defendant and the causes of action, as well as the various sec tions of the Code relating to the statute of limitations, while another action pending is placed in bar Mackey and Fair having pe titioned for a rehearing in the United States Circuit Court of the motion to transfer the case of Burke vs. the Pacific Wood, Lumber and Flume Company, et al., from the State to the Federal Court Judge Sawyer to-day took the same under advisement. Assessment Small-Pox on the China ■steamer. San Francisco, January l.th. Leeds levies an assessment- of 10 cent*? per share.

China and Japan— Matin of the City of l' is abandoning the aggressive and obstructive course pursued by the Envoy when the latter w__ himself in charge. A notification has been issued from the Legation, or dering a strict compliance with the pilotage regula tions of tha Government of Japan, a concession long denied by Sir Harry Parkes. who, it is believed, would never "have granted it if he had remained here. .All foreign Postoflices are now removed from Japan excepting only the French station at Yoko hama. The United States ffices were withdrawn .five years ago, to the mutual satisfaction of the Japanese and Americans. The others were reta'ned till now, with the avowed object of extortingcom pensation from the Japanese authorities. An Adverse Beport— _____ Fire Escape Attempted Suicide Caused _;. Dys* pepsia. San Francisco, January 19th.— Ia the Board of Supervisors to-night the Street Committee reported against the proposed Pennsylvania avenue job, on the ground that 'such improvement was not needed at present, and also that there was a defect in the law providing for carrying out the undertaking. Fire Marshal Durkee and Chief Engineer Scannel, who have been interviewed on the subject, speak in favor of Lane's bill provid ing for fire escapes on buildings, although ob jections were made to bringing the escapes so near to the ground as to enable burglars to conveniently utilize them, and it was consid ered that platforms with a capacity for five persons would be sufficient. jj Frank Horan, aged 27, who has been stopping at the American Exchange for a few weeks past, shot himself in the breast and head in his room this evening. The wounds are probably fatal. Koran attrib uted his act to the tortures of dyspepsia. I \_Hgh*»_y Roll-cry at IVtalaraa.

Virginia, January 19th.— The assault on Thomas Clark, the engineer,' last evening, was by three men, who, after he was down, kicked and stamped on him, inflicting inju ries more serious than those from the blow on the head, and which will prevent him from running his engine for some time. After he was rescued and reached his train, Pete Fitzgerald said, "Tom can't run that engine out to-night." at the same time drawing a pistol. Clark then went back into the pas senger train. No arrests have yet been made. The Mechanics' Union say their or ganization is in no way responsible for the attack. Clark says he never saw the men be fore, and hence the attack could not have been of a personal nature. The only reason he can assign for it is that he does not stand well with the labor associations. The awl stab in Charles Huff is not serious. The weapon struck a rib, glanced and made only a flesh wound an inch and a half deep. Sniride or a Twelve-year-old Hoy— An Itatlnii Tired of Lite. 11l SO, January 19th.
