Alta California Telegraph Com
I1AnY.

ms company was organized Septem-
ber 1st, 1852, and incorporated Septem-
ber LIST, 1853, with a capital stock Of
seventy thousand dollars, divided into 700
shares of one hundred dollars each, the
period of incorporation to be PERPETUAL.
Said line to commence at Sacramento City
and terminate at Nevada, passitig through
Mormon Island, Diamond Springs; Pla-
cerville, Coloma, Auburn and Grass VAL
ley. The officers of the company re-
Guired by the articles of association are
President, Secretary, Treasurer and eight
Directors.
The work of constructing the line was
commenced in the fall of 80, and pro-
secuted until the rainy season commenced,
when, owing to the great quantity Of rain
which fell, the work was necessarily sus-
pended, and could not be resumed until
June '53. In consequence of this suspen-
sion of the work, the public very natural
ly came to the conclusion that the enter
prise had "fallen through" and that the
line would not be completed. 1t was
therefore thought best under these un-
favorable circumstances to omit calling on
the people for more subscriptions until
the line was completed, or at least until
the work had SO far progressed as to con-
vince the public that it would be COM
peted. Accordingly, the money necesS
sary to complete the line was obtained
by other means in order to avoid ftirthet
delay.
he line is now fully completed and in
successful operation, and it is hoped that
the citizens of this place will at least do
their share in aid of such public enter
prise.
The receipts of the line, during the
short time it has been in operation, prove
conclusvely, that the most sanguine ex-
pectatlons of those interested will be fully
realized. The question, whether the tele-
graph lines will pay, remains no longer
doubtful one. All those who are familiar
with telegraphing in the States, know full
well that telegraph lines universally pay
well there, and it there is country on
earth where they will pay it is California.
The following estimate has been carefully
prepared, founded on actual data:

W. Here is one of Tennyson's exquisit
title lyrics. 1t is worthy of his pen, an,
'nly Tennyson could have written it.
Sit down, sad soul and count
The moments flying;
Come, tell the sweet amount
That's lost by signing.
How many smiles!-a score!
Then laugh and count no more.
For day is dying!
Lie down, sad soul, and weep
And no more measure
The fight of Time, nor weep
The loss of leisure;
But here, by this lone stream,
Lie down with US and dream
Of starry treasure!
We dream: do thot1 the same,
We love forever;
We laugh, yet few we shame,
The gentle
Stay then, till sorrow dies
Then hope and happy skies!
And thine forever

then ! acelcomed about glass of it," The
unexpected verb wholly upset the gravity
of the court, jury, and miscellaneous peo-

recovering their equanimity by his further
testimony, that the man who bought the
brandy drank of it himself till hs "wss

LAND AGENcY.--We invite attention to the
card Of Messrs Olivier, Stone II Folsom, who
have lately opened d general land agency in
the Court House. These gentlemen have op-
portunlties which few possess for the prOsecu-
ton OF their business. Mr.. Olivier is the Re
gister Of Deeds for Ramsey County. and is of
course familiar with the records; Mr.. Stone,
Judge Of Probate and general land matters,
whilst Mr.. Folsom is Surveyor and has, in this
capacity. acquired acquaintance with most Of
the surveyed lands in the Territory. In addi-
ton to these advantages, the firm has the to
lent, integrity, and industry requisite to insure
success. We visited their Office, a day or two
since, and were much interested in examining
their collection of maps, p ats abstracts, &c,
which have been completed with great care OK
pense. and labor, and are invaluable for the
purpose of reference in the examination of the
location and titles of land. Such industry de-
serves succcss.-DemOcrat.
In the absence of anything We could write
touching the ability and capacity Of this firm
more proper and to the point than the above,
we copy it, and endorse what our neighbor says
in its fullest purport. We also owe the gentle
men of this new firm an apology for failing to
call attention to their card last week.
