PRoDI6Ious PowER "A DIR. @. W.
Gathcart writes to the Spiritual Telegraph,
from Laporte county, Indiana, detailing the
following instance Of power. He says:
"During the last harvest wirlwind blew
off the straw ha, of one of my hands. My
attention was attracted to il, and seated on
reaping machine, | rounded the corner
next 10 hin. The hat was forty rods Of,

hundred feet high. ] called in loud voice,

Spirit bring that man his hat The man
INSTANTLY stopped perfectly still. The hat
whirled around, came back and dropped
precisely in his bands He was so SUR
prised that he did not shut-llis fingers upon
it, when it fell to the ground on his feet,
and be picked it up without moving an
iach from his position, which he had held
immovably from the time / called. The
man was no Spiritualist. | called out with
out reflection, and can only say that ] cid
not SO wautoDly. This curious affair was
witnessed by at least eight sedate witnesses,
but few of whom were crszV Spiritualis;s. .

Southern Trade.

1t has long been the desire of the South
and to this end they have held yearly CON-
mercial conventions to devise ways and
means to secure the consideration so ar
IDENTIFY desired The Savannah Georgian
contains a somewhat novel proposition from
Senator Toomts, contained in letter adj
dressed by him to the convention recently in
session at Savannah. He starts out with
statementof the great importance to the
south of securing her just share of foreign
commerce of the Union which is mainly sup
ported by her industry This, he says, must
be done, and can be done speedily and con
stitutionally. Not by voluntary associa-
ton, which is impossible, but by force OF
legislative enactment. 1t is to be effected
by applying to the Southern states the sys-
TEN of indirect taxation, adopted by the
general government. and carried out by il
so successfully, for revenue purposes.
For though a State is inhibited from lev
yipg duties on imports, she can, as has beer
repeatedly decided by the Supreme Court
tax all imported articles-whtther from
other States or other nations offered fol
sale within her limits. Acting under thi
power, Mr.. Toombs would have Georgia ans
other southern States levy an cd raloren
tax upon all goods, wares and merchandise
offered for sale within their limits othel
than those imported directly from foreigi
countries, This tax should be high enougl
LIST, to prevent all indirect imporations o
foreign goods, and 2nd high enough to rails
sufficient revenue for the wants of the Stat
without the imposition upon the people, 0
any capitation or other direct tax whatever
IfMr Toombs succeeds in excluding al
indirect foreign importions, It must be appa
rent that he could derive no State revenue
by leyyng a tax upon them.

VANDERBILT AND THE ACCESSORY Tran
SIT Co11pANY--It appears, says the New
York Herald, that the Nicaragua Transit
Company is fast approaching its final disso-
luton, and that Commodore Vanderbilt has
been vanquished at last, the Supreme Court
having, ON the Sth instant, made an order
for a receiver of the property and effects of
the Company, and appointed Judge Crowles
as the receiver, who will act once. We are
informed that many of the stockholders make
heavy charges, and entertain gloomy sus-
picions as to the integrity of Fanderbilt's
claims against the Company, AMI are deter
mined to oppose their pay nent until they
shall have been found, after riged examl-
nation, to be just; and it is said that some
of the stockholders feel confident that they
will be able to make it apparent that the
moneys alleged to have been advanced by
him belonged to the Company, and Of which
he was the custodian, having been previous
ly received by him at different times and
from different persons, on account OF the
Transit Company.

REPRESENTATIVES, AND ELECTORS IN
196o.-The Philadelphia Bulletin estimates
that the Representative population in 1860,
throughout the Union, will be about 81 .000,-
600 The number of Representatives being
2s4, the ratio of apportionment will be about
l32, 900, and the Houss will consist of Isl
representatives from free States, and So
from Slave States. by the present appor-
tionment, there are IA from free States,
and 90 from Slave States If the calcula-
lations of the Bulletin are correct, the Pres
idential Electors for 1860, will number 296,
of whom 185 will be from free States, and
l13 from Slave States

Mr.. BUsrER-The Treasurer of Sonoma
county, Mr. Buster, who was recently robbed
of Sl3 900 Of State and County funds, is
strongly suspected fibeing his own robber.
Upon the subject the Napa Reporter says;
1.-The County Treasurer g busting" official,
it is currently reported, went to the Capital
to have his bonds cancelled, which he didn't
do, as far as we can learn. Report also says
that he was paid the apportionment Of the
School Fund due Sonoma county, which he
'bucked off before reaching the locality of
the county safe lie is now in the Santa

Judicial Districts.

Mr.. Burch, Member OF Assembly from
Trinity County, has introduced bill into
the Legislature which proposes to form
new Judicial District out of the Eighth and
Ninth, to be known as the Sixteenth District,
and to be composed of the counties of Butte,
Colusi and Tehama We have not seen
copy of the bill, but learn from our ex-
changes that it provides, ''That the Eighth
Judicial District shall be composed of the
counties of Klamath, Humboldt, and new
county to be created out of Klamath county,
and the Ninth Judicial District, shall be
composed of the counties of Shasta, Siskiyou
and Trinity
This arrangement will deprive Butte of
her old number Nine, continue Judge Dain
gerfeld in the Ninth District, and give
Butte Colusi and Tehama the new number
of sixteen. This change is rendered neces-
sary by the increase of legal business in the
county of Butte, and from the fact that the
Eighth District, as it is now formed, cannot
be accommodated by single Judge, as
there are several months during the year,
when it is impossible to travel from one por
ton of the District to another. By the
change contemplated in Mr.. Burch's Bill,
every facility will be afforded the Judges
of the northern districts to hold their terms
with regularity and promptness, and the
Judges would be accessible, at all times,
from all portions of their respective Dis
tricts, for the issuance of chamber orders,
whenever necessity might require. The
press of the northern counties affected by
the proposed change, are unanimous in sup
port of the measure, as it is absolutely re-
CURED for the interest of the people, and to
carry out the ends of justice by the prompt
administration of the law.
This change would be of great advantage
to the citizens of Butte County, as it would
give the District Court ample time to dis
pose of the business brought before it, which
| is barely the case under present arrange
ments, and would relieve the county and
| luganls OF nueh unnecessary eAPenee'
The general expression in favcr of the meas
ure by the press of the counties interested
] leads to belief that the bill will become a
law. If so, the Sixteenth District, Butte,
Colusi and Tehama) will be called upon to
slect a District Judge in September next.
Although We should unwillingly part with
IL - e
the interests of the northern districts that
such changes should be made as will secure
to each county the prompt and regular ses-
sions of its District Court.

NEVADA TERRIroRY-The editor of the
Stockton Republican has been shown pri-
yate letter from Washington City, in which
it is stated that bill was in preparation for
the formation of a new territory on the east
ern boundary Of California; the eastern
boundary 70 be the dividing ridge of the
mountains to the west of the Great SaIi
Lake. Carson Valley, and all the grazing
valleys north and south Of it, from the Ore
gon line to the Colorado river, of course
will be within the limits Of the new terrific
ry, which is to be named Nevada. The WI
ter states that Senator Douglas was prepar-
ing the bill; when perfected he would pre-
sent it to the California delegation for ap-
proyal. If it should meet their appreciation
there was little doubt of its becoming law

To Corn EsPoNDENTs.-We are constant
ly receiving letters from persons who are
either ashamed of their own names, or else
think an assumed name all that an editor
requires Now these are mistaken no.
tons. If an individual desires to contribute
to newspaper he ought certainly to be will
ling to let the editor know his name, and if
an article is worth publishing, it is worth
6 fathering" We frequently find letters
lying on our table that have been deposited
there by stealth, and signed with meaning
less names that too often show their authors
stupidity, when their real names are en-
tirely withheld. NOMINEES de plume are
frequently a very desirable appendage, as
in the case of the mysterious . Jupius" or
the great '.Waverly," but in ordinary news
paper contributions, -although fictitious
name may sometimes appropriately be placed
at the bottom of article,-yet the writer
should confde his name to the editor, if for
nothing more than to let him know who it
is that seeks to talk to the world through
the medium of his columns.
We are always pleased TO receive contri-
butions,-they often help us along amazing
ly,-yet we feel in duty bound to make it a
rule for future action, not to publish any
communication unless it is accompanied by
the real name of the author. We don't OBJ
.ject to publishing the assumed names of con-
tributors, but we must have their real ones
too We mean this rule to apply to contri-
buttons on any and all subjects; aud to be-
gin, we desire our Spanishtown correspond
ents to send their real names, if they have
any,-that is to say, should they write to us
again, and we hope they willard to any
body and everybody else, we desire to make
known this our invariable rule. No commu-
nicatiOns will hereafter will be published in
the Record unless the editor knows the au-
ther's name

eight o'clock, during the absence of the fam
lily, the house of the family, the house of
James Dalgardano, on Howard street be-
tween Second and Third street, being left in
charge of young girl, a man knocked at

the girl thinking that he was an acquain-
lance of the owner. The man, however, in
quired for different person, and on ques-

WAS no one else in the house, nor in the adj
Joining cottage, he threatened her with death
if she did not disclose what money was on
the premises. She aed in fear, but assis-
lance could not arrive in time to track the

MARYsvILLE RACE COURSE An associ-
otion is being formed, says the California
Express, under the management of Mr.. c.
S Ellis, for the purpose of improving fine
stock and the encouragement of such persons
as have turned their attention to matters of
this nature The establishment designe to
be erected by the association, is to be located
about three miles from Marysville on the
Honcut road, at a place formerly known as
the Buckeye Ranch. The Express learns
from Mr. Ellis, the manager and prime
mover of thfs enterprise, that it is his inten-
ton to have the house, stables and stands,
for the convenience of the track, equal, if
not superior to any in the State. The fest
meeting of the Association will probably
take place about the last week in April,
when purses will be arranged SO as to give
all classes of horses fair chance to contend
for the prizes.
