From Moore's Rural New Yorker.
What's to be Done

Winter has come ana gone, ana
spring is once more upon us. The
winter has been uncommonly mild
and genial for the business of the
farm. Stock has generally wintered
well, and the barns will not be en-
tirely empty when the cattle and
sheep no longer need dry food
Sheep, perhaps, have suffered more
tbs sea on than any other stock,
especially yearlings. Almost every
farmer complains of a greater loss
of this class than is usual, The
cause can probably be found in the
wet, bad season of last year. The
lambs came into the yard thin and
weak, and nave thus suffered badly
on dr. food.
Debts have been slowly paid this
winter and all kinds Of property
have tumbled down. Capital has
accumulated in the great CONNER
cial ccnters, and is laying there idle
because there is no way to use it
safely. AS soon as the farmers
have any thing to sell, and begin
to realize upon it, money will grad
ually get into circulation-the pay
ment of one debt will lead to the
payment Of many more. Economy
and labor will be the order Of the
day, and better times will come
slowly. But after all it will depend
very rnuch upon the farmers. Eve
ny farmer should make up his mind
that he will put his farm to its
utmost capacity of productiveness,
Do not allow it one moments re-
pose. Plant or SOW every impro-
able acre; fill yolr barns and gra-
naries; make up in quantity what
you lack in price. If you can't
grow wheat, or corn, put in some
lax, and grow more OF every avail
able crop than you ever grew be-
fore. Raise more calves and pigs
and lambs, and be prepared to stall
feed a few nice sheep, CT file steers
or oxen Get as much to sell this
coming fall as you possibly can, and
then sell it. Don't wait for high
prices they wn't como back again
for sometime. Sell and take the
money and pay your debts with it.
If you are so fortunate as not to
owe anybody, then lend it to your
neigbbor to enable him to pay of
his pressing debts, and help him to
get another crop.
One of the best crops to put in
this spring will be corn. Plant all
you can, attend to it well, and send
it to market next winter in fat cat
tie, sheep or hogs.
Sell all you Can, buy nothing that
You don't pay down for, and good
times will soon come round.

The instability of the Law.

Is there any other part of the civilized
world where the laws are as transitory as
they are in California? If SO, we pity the
inhabitants of that country. Better far were
the laws of the Medes and Persians, that
knew no change or deviation, than those of
California that were that yesterday, are this
to-day, and will be something else tomorrow
If n law be bad in its effects, people can
shape their course so as to avoid its evil con.
sequences; but there is no such thing AS
guarding against all possible contingencies,
save by "a mastery inactivity" This seems
to be the only chance for our citizens and
when we look at the stagnation of many
branches of business, we cannot but see that
the people understand their doubtful cond-
tion and govern themselves accordingly.
1t is still an open question as to whether
mining claims are subject to attachment for
debt, (unless very recently settled, some of
the District Courts deciding one way, and
some the other It's yet to be directly de-
cided that water bitches are real estate and
necessary to be conveyed by deed, duly re-
corded. If it be so decided how many are
there who have a perfect title to what ditch
stock they have paid their money for? Who
knows where to go to obtain title to LANDS
if he wishes to secure to himself home
stead? Who knows what it is safe to re-
ceive as security for money loaned?
We have been led into this train of tho't
by the recent action of the Supreme Court
in the case of Boggs vs. The Merced Min
ing Company better known as the Fremont
Mariposa case A few weeks ago, they de-
cided that the gold in the soil did not pass
FROM the sovereign power to the grantees of
land under a Mexican grant-when the
mines were not specially conveyed. This
gave to the miners the right under proper
restrictions, to take the gold from the placers
or lodes wherever they were fortunate enough
to find it, even if it were upon confirmed
grant tor which patent had issued. This
decision was hailed with JOY by the mass of
people of the State They pointed with
pride to our highest judicial tribunal, as far
above the hints at corruption that had been
so lavishly bestowed on other bodies where
these titles had heen brought in question.
People who had their all invested in mining,
where there hung over them the dark cloud
of an, at least, suspiciously obtained grant,
breathed more freely, and felt stronger at
tachment for this, their adopted home news
papers had, in complacent leaders, congratu-
lated the people on this inauguratng of a
better order of things, and it seemed for once
that we were to have a settled condition of
affairs, where heretofore all was in doubt.
This feeling of confidence was too pleasant to
last, California would not be California, un-
less all questions were open, offering induce
