FAMED above about balance the depsrsres Of the 18th
and 18th.
The raising season has been protracted many weeks
beyond the usual period this AZ Panama, and
has caused additional mortality but now that yellow
fever has been developed there it viii very probably
become epidemic, and is a sorrowfu addition to the
curses Of that portion ofDyew Granada
The last arrival from the Nicaragua route the Brother
Jonathan, with very heavy passenger list, brought
p,s, rnige
craft the Independence is still out with the Newiork
passengers Of Jan % and had left Acapulco on the
10Th Feb being eighteen days from that port ordinarily
run by other steamers in from and half to ten
days. This vessel and the s. s. Lewis might answer
very well for eighter but to get passengers as far as
San Juan del Sud and then place them on either OF
these vessels under the implied contract that they are
sea Steamers as that term is usually recognized, is
one Of the peculiar customs practised by the Wander
bilt line and here in California where people do not
ALWAYS seek Legislative Halls 20 enact laws in rather
subject those vessels to the chance of coming within
the rigorous clauses OF Scu'iiHR act 1t is asking
rather too much after exacing the highest rates of
charges to expect that human nature Qots of in Cal
fornia will quietly and Christ like cit down under the
arerayaton OF sickness and needless mortality mainly
attributable to gross neglect 1t is dangerous test at
least and exhibits the Nicaragua Company ia the cha
racter of bold expermenters, that's all The s. ;.
Lewis goes out to morrow having been thoroughly
oyerhauled and new and enlarged screw attached
but have no confidence in her powers or fitness for
that route We shall see.
The Monumental City sailed on the 18th inst, for
Melbourne and Sidney.N 5. w. The New-orleans to
follow the SIN prox where they viii do good bus
mess coasters, The Independence and 5. s. Lewis
should follow with dispatch
The people wish 20 use the Nicaragua route but its
business must be done up altogether more hOnoraby
The Tehuanepec is wanted sadly, until tie desdera
tum, the National Railroad, s completed. Only start
IT, and we will travel long distance to reach its West
ern terminus rather than enrust ourselves and friends
10 any other route We getting anxious for it's
compistion that we cannot wait five years and when
we have an act authorizing lie construction will do
share TO limit il half that period if possible Five
hundred thousand men stand idle, with their hands in
their pockets who take a deep interest in its speedy
completion and who viii exhibit all their zeal forone
dollar per day. Hurry up Congress, and let them go
TO work, az many as possible.
The Land Commission dies natural death on the
Cd March not a soon. if all the claims
which they have confirmed or would confirm, are to
stand.
The talest Legislative tinkerng goes on under full
head of steam in this our California. But the most n
dcuous farce connected with L Is that the sessions are
opened by prayer To be consistent and in keeping it
Is rather strongly Inferred that members generally,
would prefer the orson of the toddy stick 1t is fair
presumption that they would coincdei the opinion that
the latter congenal to their nervous systems.
There is too much law and too much law-msking but
some men cannot get employ in any other way, and
"nursed job" is sometimes better than none. fthere
is State in the Union in which legislation is sdroty
managed for the qualification Of private spleen ven
seance or for personal aggrsndizement let's have the
name-do. But every thing is Loco-FOco. Is Is so
strong it fairly smes-very unpleasant
more timely point for the introduction of the fol-
lowing paragraphs from Tie H,rad could not be Sc
iected, Some of "our friends would possibly find
niggers very profitable.
