We learn that the citizens of Benecia
have determined as a last resort to mako
an application to the Supreme Court for
an Injunction to prevent the removal Of
the Capital from their city to Sacramento.
One of the points upon which the appli-
cation is to be based is stated to be 40
follows: According to all parliamentary
usage, bill which has once been voted
down in a legislative body cannot again
be introduced, the same session, if obJec-
tion be made, except by two thirds vote.
At the commencement Of the present ses-
sion the Senate refused to concur in tho
Assembly bill for the removal of the Cap
itaI, by a vote of 10 to Is. The bill passed
during the present week is exactly similar
in it's provisions to the preceding one, and
at the time of its introduction in the Sem
ate, it is alleged that objection was made
by one Of the San Francisco delegation,
although that objection was not noticed
by the Chair, and consequently not record
ed on the journal. Ifan injunction should
be sued out and granted on these grounds,
it will revive the much disputed question
of the right of the Supreme Court to 90
behind legislation and investigate whether
bill has been legally passed through all
its different stages or not, and decide ac-
cordngly. The Benecians have held
several meetings on the subject.

coying children, generally boys from seven
to twelve years of age, practised in this
city BY promises they are induced to 60

sell into the mines, or to ranch where
they are set at work. A few weeks since,
gentleman whose boy had been for some
time missing, succeeded in finding him on
a ranch in Contra Costa county, where tho
boy said he was restrained of his liberty.
In our columns to-day will be found an
advertisement from gentleman who has
recently lost boy. The boy has been
missing some weeks, and a few days he
fore his disappearance, he told his father
that he had been accosted in the street by
man who told him elf he would 90 with
him he would make gentleman Of him."
A boy in the same neighborhood has been
missing for about two months. A severe
punishment should be meted out to some
of these men if they can be found.-.a!to.
