The order was communicated to the

CoRN Al D Hoos.-From carefully con

II has been ascertained that one bushel o.

Taking this result as basis, the follow

farmers would do well to lay by for con-
venient reference. That
When corn costs l24c. per bushel, pork
costs / Ac. per pound. :,
When corn costs tic. pei bushel, pork
costs &c. per pound.

costs Sc. per pound.
When corn costs 33c. per bushel, pork
costs 4c. per pound.
When corn costs SOC. per bushel, FORK
costs &c. per pound.
The following statements show what
the farmer realizes for his ccrn when sold
in the form Of pork
When pork sells for &c. per pound, it
brings 25c. per bushel in corn.
When pork sells for &c. per pound, 1t

RoNDo IN YREKA-The Yreka Union
says, The town authorities have passed an
ordinance, levying a tax Of five dollars per
night on all games of hazard within the
corporation limits. Instead of decreasing,
it seems to increase the number of Rondo
games. The saloons are nightly crowded,
and the rattle of change is as spirited as in
40 and so, when monte, faro and other
games were practiced. The new ordinance
Is bringing a fine revenue into the treasury,
which is being devoted by the board, Except
tho first 500, which was appropriated to the
fire department,) to dietary the expense of
enclosing the cemetery Rondo is now the
attraction night and day, Sundays included,
and the continual dollar in the bank who'll
tap iti-roll, rondo or culo.' is heard in all
the billiard saloons
Since it is generally conceded that rondo
dealing is no violation of law, and therefore
cannot be suppressed, would not the nstitu.
ton of town tax be a wholesome enactment

Legislating for the Miners.

Thus far into the bowels of the land"
have the miners of California marched
without impediment," and untrammelled
save by the natural obstacles which have
lain in their way. 1t would seem best to
leave well enough alone. The miners are
now by far the most independent of all la
borers, and why not let them remain so -
Why agitate the policy of legal enactments
foi people who are now in more apparent
prosperity and enjoying more freedom of ac-
ton for the accomplishment Of beneficial re-
suits than any class of men on earth' What
besides evil is to result from it
These questions are suggested to US by
the perusal of various projects which have
lately been mooted for legislative action
having for their end and aim the better reg
ulation of the mines. The Placer Herald ad-
vocates the passage of a law for the regula-
tiun of quartz mining, and other writer's
have complained that the Legislatures have
passed the miners interests by unheeded
and uncared for. Regarding the present
system of mining regulations as by far the
best ever conceived of concerning quartz
mines and all others, we rejoice that the
Legislatures have never deigned to notice
the miners. and believe we are reiterating
the sentiments of every thinking miner in
saying, we hope that our future law makers
may ever pay them as little attention The
moment that legislation for the miner com
mences. that moment he will begin descent
from his present high estate. We had far
better dispense with legislators than elect
them to act for class so we'll able to act
beneficially to themselves as are the miners.

SENTENCED iro BE BRANDED.-The New
York Commercial Advertiser, of Sept. 10Th
says:
The United States Attorney General has
under consideration the case of Charles
Crowell, ordinary seaman, who for striking,
disobeying, and treating with contempt his
superior officers, was sentenced by q court
martial lately convened in New York, TO
three years imprisonment in the penitentia
ry of the District of Columbia, to be depriv.
ed of his pay, and 10 be marked with the let
ter D on his right hip. The specific question
addressed to the Attorney General by the
Secretary of the Navy was as to the legality
of the sentence The Attorney General hold
that there is nothing illegal in it, and it is,
therefore, to be carried out in every parti.
cular. Although the punishment is severe,
it is considered that Crowell's offense was of
such character that it could not be lightly
passed over without sesious injury to one of
the most vital elements in naval discipline,
