RAIN.-At last We have been furnished
an abundant supply of rain. All the
bitches, in this vici nifty, at least, have
been filled with water and miners through
out this section of the country are improv-
ing their time We have not the means
of ascertaining the amount of rain which
fell here, but we have had storm ofthree
days duration, portion of which time
the rain fell in torrents. We have faith
that we shall have much more rain during
the month, believing, as we do, that the
habits of the weather are governed by the
same laws that regulate the habits of the
''fast boys" who, when they get bent a
certain way, cannot, or will not, change
their point of compass for at least month
let the compass point towards labor or a
"spree," which way it will. So if our
theory Of the laws governing the weather
be correct, we shall have plenty of water
during the month of April. In the Ian
guage of authors not unknown to fame (the
conclusion is intended for days when
the sun don't shine, and the wind is in the
east) "look out for rain about these days"

OFFICE SEEKS THE MAN.-One of our
prominent frst-class citizens was called
upon a few mornings since by two gentle
men who rendered him his choice of any
of these four offices which they held in the
palms of their hands-County Treasurer,
District Attorney, State Senator, or Rep
resentative to Congress. The hour at
which the gentlemen called was nine o.
clock, and the frst-class citizen was found
in bed. Ito their regret these gentlemen
learned that first-class citizens always lie
in bed at that hour of the morning) The
two callers regret to state that their pres
ence and generous offer were spurned, and
so office seeks this man in vain.

pm. When the steamer Sonora arrived
at San Francisco last Saturday, and the
news was being telegraphed here, pla-
card was posted at the telegraph Office to
the effect that the news relative to Great
Britain and the United States was very
menacing. The sensation produced was
considerable, and rumor had it that war
had been declared between the two coun-
tries, and that a fleet had been sent to
lombard San Francisco. One gentleman,
not so mereurial as the majority, thought
there was very little danger if a fleet had
been sent to lombard San Francisco, as
there were enough adroit thieves in that
city to steal the whole fleet within a week
after its arrival

FIGHT AMONG THE CHINESE. The
Chinese residents of this place had grand
fight last Sunday. The quarrel, VIC be-

wounded. The whole party was arrested

night, and on Monday they were brought
before Justice Niles, who fined eight of
them thirty dollars each, and three of them
were committed to await trial. The

BRurAL AND CowARDLY ASSAULT

Last week, Wm H. Werth, accompanied
by ex-Alderman Maynard and two other
men named Logan and Smith, called at
the San Francisco Evening Journal Office,
and inquired for Mr.. Kingsburry, one of
the editors of that paper. On his going
to the door, and after it was asccrtained
that he was the author of an article enti-
tied "Chivalry," Werth, standing behind
Kingsbury, struck him on the head with
heavy cane, telling him to the ground
The blows were then repeated to the num-
Der of seven. Mr.. Washburn, another of
the editors of that paper, undertook to
interfere, but pistol was drawn on him
as warning not to interfere. Police Of
fcers at last arrested the assailants. The
article entitled "Chivalry," commented
upon card of Werth, who, it seems, has
been recently acquitted of the charge of
murder in Tuolmne county, and who, af
ter his acquittal, published the card allu-
ded to, in which he denounces the majori-
ty of Tuolmne county as "abolitionists and
fanatics from the North" He further
denounced them as men who would sell
the virtue of their sisters for the money it
would bring, and who, if their own char
acters were assailed, would sue for DANA
ges, and fatten on the money they could
get. So the Ecening Journal wrote the
article on "Chivalry," in which that in
stitution is characterized as fastening a
"moral fungus upon the State"
The case was brought before Mayor
Van Ness, and Werth pleaded guilty of
assault and battery. The severe punish
ment which the Mayor has seen fit to in
Aict upon Werth, is detailed in the annex
ed statement from the To,cn Talk of Tues
day last:
THE WERru AssAuLT-To the sur
prise of everybody, Mayor Van Ness yes
terday discharged Mr.. Werth from further
arrest under the complaint for the assault
upon Mr.. Kingsbury. This was the more
astonishing as his Honor had refused to
discharge him in the first instance, when
desired to do so by the prosecution, and
yet still more SO, from the fact that de-
fendant had plead guilty to the charge of
assault and battery We do not under
stand this matter at all, but it looks as
though our worthy Mayor was trying to
dodge the question of determining the mer-
its of the case. The only reason any one
protends to give for this unlocked for ac-
ton, is that the grand jury were about to
examine into the case. But this does not
tally with his Honor's previous practice,
for we have known him in repeated in
stances refuse to discharge prisoner or
release him under a warrant, unless he
would voluntarily allow the case to go be-
fore the grand jury, and give security for
his appearance to answer their finding. -
In any point of view, we think his Honor
has placed himself in a position which he
will have frequent occasion to repent here
after.
A few more such severe sentences as
this will cause breaches of the peace to
become very rare, without doubt.

TIE PACIFIC MAIL STEAMSHIP COMPANY
1t has long been our opinion that this company
was mercenary one, organized for the pur
pose of making money, and circumstance
has lately transpired which confirms that opin
ion. The circumstance to which we have al
luded is this. That company refuses to carry
one-half of the California delegates to the
Democratic Nstioual Convention free II
seems that C K. Garrison offered to carry
one half offhem over the Nicaragua line free,
if the Pacific Mail Steamship Co., would carry
the Sfher half on the same terms. This has
brought out the virtueus Indignation Of the
"Globe" which pitches into that company as
follows
sit is well known that the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company has been accustomed to
give free tickets to any persons who were un-
derstOod to have an influence with Congress
and the Executive, and it has been very gen
orally presumed that the motive in the case
was not so much an overfowing generosity
and irresponsible philanthropy, as a shrewd
calculation upon the aid they might receive in
procuring their annual stipend of S7750,00C
from the U. S. Treasury. Members of Con
gress, Senators and Judges have been begged
not TO trouble the refined and exquisite feelings
of the Agents of the Company by rendering
compensation for their passage
Has the p. NJ. S. Co. no patriotism Ev
identity, it has none. What, then, will become
of sour great and glorious country, which ha:
been governed almost exclusively for half {
century by the Democracy ?" Surely, it is il
danger. What, too, will become of the grea
Dead-Head party? Surely, that is in danger
too.

WORTH KNowING.-One pound of
green copperas (costs Z cents) dis
solved in one quart of water, and
poured down a privy, will enectually
concentrate and destroy the foulest
smells, For water closets on board
ships and steamboats,, about hotels and
other places, there is nothing so nice
to clean and purify those places, as
simply green copperas dissolved; and
for sick rooms it may be placed under
the bed in anything that will hold
water, and thus render a hospital, or
any other place Of sickness, free from
unpleasant smell. In butchers stalls,
fish markets, slaughter houses, sinks,
and wherever there are putrid and OF.
fensive gasses, dissolve copperas and
sprinkle it about, and in few days
| the bad smell will pass away. If a
cat, rat or mouse die about the house,
it is sure to drive away the offensive
smell. = z -

A Dream.

I had dream, a sweet, wild dream
1 Idreamed 1 was thy bride;
And every pulse thrilled wild with hope
And rapture, love and pride.
My hand was fondly clasped in thine,
My heart to thine was pressed;
l felt that thou alone was mine,
And with the thought was blest.
And then cur spirits pinions soft.
Wing softly twined with wing
SCARED on the golden clouds aloft,
Where blooms celestial spring.
We aoated on amid the spheres,
Z Unfettered, swift, and free;
And wild delirium thrilled my soul,
While soaring thus with thee!
Still on we passed mid the pale stars.
Twin-spirits true and kind
The crimson folds of evenings skies
Z. We left-oh, far behind;
And there amid those glorious orbs
Our souls were welded, love-
Then as one lofty, giftedssoul
We entered heaven above.
