Walkers Pass, says the San joaquin

and from three hundred yards to mile
and a half in breadth, the narrowest
place being at the eastern extremity of the
Pass. The Pass is free from distractions
of all kinds; buggy can be driven thro'
it without difficulty. The mountains rise
on either hand from the Pass to the hight
Of about 1000 feet, but are neither pre-
ciptous nor very rough. They are with
out timber Immediately at the Pass, but
at short distance from the Pass they are
covered with heavy timber, the prevailing
growth being oak and pine. AT the open

From the State Journal.

A Correspondent writing from the Paja-
ro Valley, Santa Cruz county, says;
"Some sections of. the State can boast
of extensive fields of the cereals of mile
or two in extent, hpt | think | hazard
nothing in saying that no part of the
world can boast of a SINGLE field of pota-
toes FIVE MILES long and TWO MILES
WIDE, and this exists in fact at this place.
On the Ranch of Erreinbach, is a single
potato that is estimated to we gh at this
time, seven pounds, the hill in which it is
growing was raised from three potatoes.
It is yet in fourishing condition, and
it is thought it will arrive az full ten
pounds before digging time. L he yield
of potatoes on this valley is enormous,
and hardly to be credited; as an instance
will mention one case of ripe field, of
several acres, large portion of which
produced taoo ,cater pals full to three
hills on an average.
1t is thought by competent Judges and
disinterested farmers, that this valley
alone will produce this year $4,000 tons
of this root. The citizens of the valley
estimate the crop much higher"

SEwERs.-Mr. Lowell has lost no time
in carrying out the terms of his contract
for constructing general system of sew
erage for the city. Disches have been
commenced on Seventh, Fifth. Third, and
other streets, which are to extend south
ward across the principal thoronghfares,
till they reach a main canal to be cut
somewhere in the vicinity Of NJ street,
and thus conduct the water to conven-
lent outlet. Had a plan similar to this
been adopted last fall, much of the mud
and sIop with which we were afflicted
during the winter would have been OBJ
waited; but as the flood was an event that
could not be foreseen, of course the
proper measures to mitigate its evils were

STILL MORE lMPoRTANT-Joaquln Cap
tured and Beheaded-and has body IN the
hands of his Captors 1t has just been re-
ported here that the Company Of Rangers
under Capt. Henry Love met with the
notorious murderer and robber Joaquin,
and six of his equally famous band at
Pancha Pass, and after desperate run-
ming fight Joaquin and one of his gang
were killed, and one taken prisoner
Three managed to make their escape,
several captured. Capt. Love is on his
way down with the head Of Joaquin pre-
served in spirits. None of Loves Ran
gers were seriously injured.
The Rangers, during the engagement,
were commanded by Capt Burns, Glove
not being presently and the other one
killed was known 10y the name of Three
Fingered Jack.''
The Stockton Journal remarks as fol-
lows in relation to the above:-
'It> is remotely intimated that the re-
ported capture and decapitaton of the
bandit Joaquin may he humbug. With
out endorseing the rumor, we may he
allowed 70 say, that the trophy is slow in
making its appearance. Perhaps some
hombre who had the misfortune to be
born a Mexican, has lost his head; but
strange doubts have arisen as to the iden-
tity of the one now on the way to the
capital. AS an item of interest, we may
nace suspicion that is gradually OBJ
tanning converts, to the effect that the man
Dawson, who was shot near this place,
was no less a person than the far famed
outlaw, whose deeds at one time filled
the country with alarm. Many believe
that Joaquin was myth, and that the
monstrous crimes charged upon him, were
the work Of confederation of rascals.
If Dawson's story was true, that he was
associated with large band Of men equal
= desperate as himself, we can credit the
suspicion very easiIy.'

FIRE AT BENIcEA-DEsTRUcTIoN OF A
PART OF THE U. s. BAKRACKs-Loss $l0,-
O0O.-A Benicia correspondent, says the
Sacramento journal, writes to us that
there was q very destructive fire at the
u. s. Barracks, Benicia, on yesterday.
The fire originated from the steve pipe
of the kitchen. 1t took fire between the
ceiling and the weatherboarding, which
was ii very difficult place to get at, and
before they could do any good, the flames
had advanced so far they gave up all
hopes. From that the grass or wild oats
ignited, and came very near burning the
fence and few out houses, but fortunate
ly the whole force turned out and fought
the fire manfulIy, and succeeded in ar
resting its progress. The building con
sumed was one of the finest in the new
Barracks, and was burned to the ground,
together with some few soldiers equip
mentS. The total loss is estimated at
$4,000.
