THERE ARE BEAUTIFUL DREAMS.

THERE ARE BEAUTIFUL DREAMS.
There are beautiful dreams of the spirit-Iife,
That comes TO the stricken heart
Like zephyrs that fit DER the waters of strife,
To bid the wild tumult depart.
There's beautiful hour like the hush Of the sea
As il dies on its wave ess shore,
When the tempests Of earth have ceased to he.
And life's little time-voyage is DER.
There's beautiful thought as vast az life,
As II sweeps DER ages to come;
IL gathers the flowers of infinite worlds
To garland its spirit home.
There's music, such as heaven alone can know,
Though it's key note is learn'd on the earth:
And myriad worlds its echo shall throw,
Still back TO the place OF its dirth.
There's a love and power, a grasp of mind
That spirit alone may know;
That throw all the riddles of schools behind,
Where the tides of eternity flow.

AN ATTEMPT TO FIRE THE Town. =
Early yesterday morning fire was discov-
cred in a small clubhouse, in the rear
of Frisbie's Saloon, in which was guam
tity of camphene and other inhammable
material. When dis covered it was burn
ing quantity of paper lying around can
of camphene, and in few moments more,
nothing could have saved large portion
of the city from destruction. The flames
had made but little progress and were cas-
lily subdued. As no matches have ever
been kept in the building, and no fire had
been about the premises for several hours
previous, it is thought to be the work of an
incendiary.

- An INSULT TO THE NATIVE CALIFoRNIAss.-
The native Californians about Los Angeles are
very indignant, and justly so, at an insult to
them in the Act to Suppress Vagrancy, pass
ed by the last Legislature. The Act authori
yes the officers of the law to arrest and punish
as vagrants all persons known as "greasers,
of mixed Spanish and Indian blood, without
any visible occupation. Phraseology is dis
grace to the Legislature which adopted it. and
to the whole State, The word "greaser" is an
insulting nickname, and is never used by a
gentleman" unless in joke. 1t is word
applied by the vulgar in insult to any person
of Spanish blood; and the, very Specification
and use of the word being an insult, we do not
understand how the Legislature could have
adopted it, Besides, we do not know that va
grancy is any worse in persons Of Spanish
blood than in those of American, and there
was no necessity at all for making such an in
vidious and insulting distinction. We trust
that the next Legislature will wipe the thing
from the statute book Cal. Chronicle.
If our recollection is correct there is no
such word as "greaser" in the vagrant act pass
ed by the last Legislature. In the bill intro
duced by Senator Norman the word occurred.
but it was stricken out prior to the passage Of
the act:

Saloon, Monday night, in which VIM. Kenne-

the ball missing him, passed through the feshy
part of the leg of police officer Cole, and slight
ly cut the toe of bystander. The parties
were arrested and examined before the Record
er yesterday, when Kennedy was fined eighty
dollars and costs, Or forty days in the County
prison. and O'Neil thirty dollars and costs, or
ten days in prison. The Court reprimanded
the parties severely for discharging fire arms
in crowded room. The parties convicted,
are young men of fine appearance, but who
have become connected with low associates
and until the discontinuance of the Arcade as
"a gambling saloon, were attaches of the es-
