News of the Week.
The news of the past week will be found
in to-day's paper. The Veto and Nebras-
ka bill are now the important, topics in Con.
gress. From the votes that have already
been had in the House OF Representatives
it would appear that the Nebraska bill is
likely to pass by a respectable majori,y, but
perhaps without the Clayton amendmen,
to the Senate bill. This amendment pro
hibited foreigners from voting in the terri
torics-a thing that has not heretofore been
done.
The prospects are now rather flatterine
|
for muss between Spain and the United
States.
very destructive steambo at explosion
occurred, April Is, on San Pablo Bay
California. 1t is supposed that upward:
OF 50 lives were lost by this terrible dis
aster. The boat was total wreck.
The excitement in Congress on the Ne
| braska question is intense. The llous,
remained in session from Thursday I'll
Friday afternoon, (at which time our dates
close. without adjournment. The ohjec
OF the opponents OF the bill seems TO be t'
prevent direct vote on the question by
parliamentary tactcs-by moving adjourn
ments, calls OF the House and other ques
tons until to-day (Tuesday. when. if w
understand the position Of affairs. ano,he
bill has been made the special order Of th'
day. We have not yet learned the resul
of these movements.
There is no news yet OF the City o
Glasgow. She has now been out abou
IS days. All hopes Of her safety are ex
tinguished.

THE COMING CRoPs.-From an exami.
nation Of the papers from most of the
agricultural States, in relation 10 the pros
pect OF the coming Wheat crop, i! appears
very fair for an abundant harvest-in-
deed, more so than usual at this season
Of the year. That the present spring is a
backward one. none will deny; but the
grain appears to have win,ered better than
usual, and the Wheat has suffered, no
more from what is termed "winter kill
ed" than in former seasons. However
a trying time has yet to be passed through
and should the present wet weather bs
succeeded by an excessively dry spell
the fly may yet play havoc with its pros
poets. s.-PiuS6urgh Post. 4t

a The HIGH PRICE. OF PAPER.--We must confess
we are astonished beyond description, either in
prose or poetry, at the high price of paper being
still maintained. We should have thought that
the numberless dispatches and interminable aa-
tograph letters which have been flying back
wards and forwards between St. Petersburg and
Berlin, and the endless diplomatic notes that
have been exchanged between Austria and those
States, would have lowered the value of waste
paper SO considerably as to have lessened the
value of paper at least half. There can
have been 10 want of materials for making pa
per, when we think of the extensive correspond
ence that has been going ON for months in reln-
ton to this still unanswered " Eastern quee-;
tion.'' What has become of all this correspond
ence As for its value, it cannot be Of ths.
slightest worth to any one, excepting to buttsr
men and trunkmakers; and it is high time that
the notes and letters, being completely suoh
dead letters, we're sold. What has become, also,
of all the Emperor Of Russia's 7" ultimatums" ~
In waste paper alone they would be a small
fortune to the holder of them Whoever is the
lucky proprietor should come forward and throw
them into the scales of public competition.

SCENERY OF THE COAST OF THE BLACK SEA.
forbear giving way to descriptions that could
say nothing of the glorious natural spectacles
which the coast, beheld from out at sea, afforded
in luxurious abundance The foaming breakers,
the rocky banks, the impenetrable woods, losing
themselves, in endless distance; the ranges Of
hills, with their many tints and leafy crowns;
and behind them all the great mountain chain,
with its incessantly shifting play of colors.
Here, unless a perfectly serene day, such as
April seldom offers, secures o clear and steady
view, all is continual change. A dense mist,
concealing all things, is often drawn before the
peering eye; and vainly does the batfied sense
then seek for q relieving point of vision until
a sun glance rends the ashen veil, and a shining
beam, like a golden magic; wand, charms into
sight world Of beauty; and wood, hill and
glacier are cleaning in new splendor around

New WAY TO PAY POSTAGE, "A young
gentleman, having occasion to write letter
to friend in the country, sent it to the office by
a German lad in bis employ. Having no post.
age stamp. he gave him three cents to pay the
postage Yesterday the gentleman received q
reply 10 his letter. and in it his friend requested
that when he wrote again, if he had no stamps,
10 send the letter without pre- paying, as he had
no idea of paying fifteen cents postage on three
coppers. The truth was that the lad, on his
way to the office, had slipped the cents into the
envelope and dropped it into the box.

"Sacramen to Democrat"

By a reference to our advertising columns,
the reader will find the prospectus of the
"Sacramento Democrat" to be published
daily in Sacramento, on and after to-day, by
Vincent E. Geiger, Esq. Mr.. G. is well known
to the reading portion of the community, as
the founder of the Sacramento State Journal.
That paper, after passing from Mr.. Geiger's
hands became the tool of the Broderick fac
ton, and left the democracy of Sacramento
without paper to represent their views. Mr..
G. again steps forward to fill the void. and
will, we doubt not, receive the hearty sup
port of the Democracy of Sacramento and of
the State. The democracy of Butte will fur
nish their quota of material aid'' to sustain
democratic paper at the Capitol. Who
will start a democratic paper in Marysville! /!
That is too important point in California to
be left without democratic paper Where
are all the enterprising typos of California,
that they do not improve that opening'
