We take the following extracts from Mr..

gcnccrAdlted Feb. 18th:
For the last few weeks the papers from The
interior have been filled with accounts of hume.
rous murders and robberes, committed by
Mexican bandit, named "Joaduin," who is said
to be the chief of band of desperndoes OF sixty
or seventy, who have infested Calaveras county
Tor several months. They rob and murder in
the most. open and cruel manner, and their lsst
exploit Was The atReking OF Chinese eaihp, kill

large sum OF money-stated ia the papers al

A coat of mail and is therefore bullet proof
Great efforts have been made TO capture him and
the Governor has offered a reward Of ST. 900
for his apprehension. Thus far, however, he
has eluded pursuit and is yet at large. The re.
suit will probably be, that before many DAYS
elapse, his lieless body will become an apperdape

A correspondent of the Hei aid Of this CITY.

ting statistics concerning the Sandwich Islands.

Of necessity be ''annexed' TO the conrederacv
From census lately taken, it appears tile total
pnpu alton OF the islands is 80 GAL, OF whom,
rs S54 are natives, and the remainder foreigners

contained population OF 100000; since which
period has dwnded down TO lis present in.
considerable number. In 1886 the enllfe pop,,.
lLtiun was 0S,579; so that in The last seventeen
years it has diminished nearly Is 600. Las.

were only ,478, and from these indications il i,

con aims about 5000 inhabitants, Of whom 500
are Foreigners. 1t is the Chief rendezvous Tor
''whalers" in the Pacific, and is place Of con.
siderable trade. The mortality amongst the
population is not imputable TO the climate.
/ (which is healthy and delicious but to certain
loathsome diseases with which almost the whole
native population is infected. .....,t
The sickness on the Panama steamers recsnt.
ly, has been truly appalling, On the Golden
Gate on her last voyage, there were % deaths,
and on the Winfield Scott about 40, chiefly from
yelow-tever. When it is remembered that
these vessels were at sea only about II DAYS, i.
is not difficult TO comprehend how very distre,
sing must have been the condition of even those
passengers who were not sick. The VOYAGE to
California, on the crowded steamers, through a
tropical climate, is indeed a serious and some
times most perilous undertaking. Asaeene-
raj thing, the voyage around Cape Horn in a
clipper ship, is much to be preferred, especially
for families. -'.T ~.
