Mexican Infant-buriaI.

A singular custom prevails among the Mex
lean people, many of whom live in this portion
Of California, which may not be uninteresting
at least TO our distant readers, who have
never been witnesses to the strange, semi-bar-
barous customs of these descendants of the
Aztecs When young child dies, after bap-
tism, it is believed by them that its spirit is
preserved from punishment, and notwithstand-
ing the parents and immediate relatives of the
child regret its loss with lamentations and
tears, preparations are made for treating the
occasion as one of rejoicing and gayety. The
body is dressed in fancy -colored clothing and
gay ribbons, and ornamented with jewelry and
flowers. The coffin is ornamented with the
brightest coored trimmings Musicians are
employed, who play necessarily until the body
is inferred After the necessary time has
elapsed, the funeral procession passes to the
grave, each person carrying lighted candle,
ornamented with fancy colored ribbon. The
covered and looking as in life, is borne on the
shoulders of four men, preceded by four
young girls; following the corpse, the musicians,
who continue playing The remainder of the
procession follow, without order. On arriving
at the grave, the body is divested of the jew
elry and ornaments, quantity of lime scat
tered over it, the coffin lid secured, and the
body committed TO its last resting place The
reason for this procedure, is the belief that
the child's death should be reoced at, mas
much as it is, by non-intercoursc with the
world, void of sn and that through baptism
its pathway is smoothed to heaven. Cases,
however, occur, where baptism has been neg
lected, and the gloom and sorrow consequent
upon death among Americans, were appar-
ent.

New ARRANGEMEST.-The Agency Of the
steamship line which heretofore was vested in
Messrs. Forbes & Babcock, has been divided.
and we now have representatives of the Pacific
Mail Line to Panama, and the United States
Mail Line to and from Aspinwall and New
York. Messrs. Forbes & Babcock retain their
agency at their oldlocation for the Pacific line,
while Mr.. w. N. Thompson, the agent for the
Atlantic Line, has his Office in the same build.
ing on Leidesdorf street. The advantages Of
this arrangement are manifold. Each line will
hereafter be compelled to bear the onus Of
blame as il occurs. Passengers can select their
berths on the Atlantic steamers, and the delay
and bother of checking tickets on the Isthmus
obvated This arrangement went into effect
with the steamer Of the 9Th; Messrs Forbes
& Babcock selling tickets TO Aspinwall, Mr..
Thompson from Aspinwall to New York. The
affairs of both houses being thus kept separate,
as far as the passenger traffic is concerned,
will work advantageousy to both the compan-
les and the travellers.

DITcH MEErNG.-The ditch meeting, last
Saturday, was attended, we are pleased
to state, by much larger number of persons
than the previous one, and disposition was
shown to take greater interest in the project
From the report read by the chairman of the
committee of nine, appointed at the previous
meeting, it appeared that the committee was
too large to satisfactorily carry out the objects
for which they were appointed, and they
were therefore discharged, and committee
of three, consisting of Messrs. B. Pitt, L. G.
Morton, and J. Y. Jones, were appointed, with
instructions to make, if necessary, collections
for the purpose of defraying the expense of a
new survey of route for the ditch. Some
very appropriate and forcible remarks were
made by the President, DIR. II. S. Brockway,
and E. G. Morton, Esq. The meeting ad-
journed at 8 o'clock, to re-assemble at the
call of the committee.
Mariposa Democrat., 1858-02-11

ELECTION IN KANsAs.-We find in the Press,
Of Philadelphia, says the Sacramento Journal,
a copy of an act submitting the Lecompton
Constitution to a vote of the people, which was
to have taken place on the 9th ult This act
was passed by Territorial Legislature convened
by acting Gov. Stanton, but whether it was
carried into effect by Gen. Denver, we have no
means of knowing The act was approved
December 18th, 1857. 1t submits three pro-
positions--one to vote for the Constitution
with slavery, another for the Constitution
without slavery, and a third to reject the Con-
stitution.
We are in some doubt whether this act was
subsequently repealed or whether such cleo
ton was actually held, and at the same time,
an election for State officers, &C., under the
Lecompton Constitution; the next mail, how.
ever, will clear the matter up. In either
event, we have no doubt that the result will
be the satisfactory settlement Of the question,
greatly to the relief Of politicians who have
feared the disruption of the party.

ELEVATED MARINE DEPosIT.-Mr. Isaac Gil
mani, who has lately returned from visit to
Tulare County, has presented us with most
singular curiosity. 1t is a cluster of petrfied
real saltwater clans, found by him on the ex-
treme summit of one of the highest peaks of
spur Of the mountains between the Coast
Range and Tulare Lake, at an elevation, the
finder thinks, of not less than two thousand
feet above the level of the Lake. Acres of
ground in the vicinity where this cluster was
picked up, is covered with the same remarka-
BILE deposit all transformed into rock. Food
for reflection.

INDEFINITELY PosTPoNED.-On the I'd inst.
says the Sacramento State Journal, the Gray
resolutions, relating to Kansas matters, were
taken from the table and indefinitely postpon-
ed by vote of ifty.fve to eight. This was
rebuke for the impcrtinent interference Of
Black Republican in matters wherein he had
no honest concern, sufficiently pointed. We
are well pleased at this action Of the Democra.
cy in the Assembly, as it shows that they will
not permit denagogues to distract their at
tention from the duty they owe to their con-
stituency.
Mariposa Democrat., 1858-02-11

CALIFORNIA STATE PRIsoN.-The following
summary of n part of the report of the Legis-
lative committee, appointed to investigate the
affairs of the State Prison, from the State
Journal, will serve to convey some idea of
the manner in which the internal economy OF
the institution is managed, as seen by tho
Commttee On January 9th, when the COM
mittee arrived, one hundred and twenty of the
prisoners were found barefoot, and some with
pieces Of gunny-bags or blankets for shoes I;
none had socks. The next day, however, sew.
eral had new shoes. Mr.. McCauley told the
Committee the prisoners had hid their shoes,
to look as badly as possible, but the Commit
tee did not succeed in discovering the hiding
place Of the shoeless The clothing is too
scant for winter; most of it is the remains of
what they had on when they came n--so tat
tered and filthy that the veriest beggar would
appear like richly clad Partisan gentleman
in comparison with them. "Shclfs," two feet
wide, straw mattrass, and one coarse, shag.
gy blanket constitute the sleeping arrange.
ments. Many of these blankets are torn in
fragments Prisoners have to sleep with their
working clothes on, and they having no change
of clothes, the whole is a mass of dirty filthy
rags, with the lice crawling over them in great
plenty. "Death would apparently be pleas
urable relief to many of these convicts." In
the long room, 146 feet by "a feet, arc turned
loose, like animals in corral, to sleep each
night, three hundred convicts, from the boy of
fifteen to the old hardened convict; the bed
ding is the same as before described, and
more lousy Three females are in this room.

TmEATRE-The Graves Dramatic Troupe
performed at this place Thursday evening last,
to crowded house. The performance con-
sisted Of Bulwer's beautiful play of the Lady
of Lyons" songs, dancing, and the farce Of
" Loan of Lover The performance was
very creditablc throughout. Mile Duret, as
" Claude " sustained the high reputation years
ago acquired by her in her professon-her
excellent reading pleasantly reminding us Of
the many hours we have listened in wrapt at
tention to her successful efforts in times past,
in other climes. She was well supported
by the rest of the company.

ARREsTED.-Miller Bartlett, who was lately
arrested for the murder of Harvey Wilkinson,
on the Stanisaus river, was re-arrested in this
place, on Saturday last, at the instance of his
bail at Stockton. He was taken back to that
city.
The Calaveras Chronicle, in speaking of this
individual, and his examination upon the
charge of killing Wilkinson, says: 1t is the
opinion of every person, that Bartlett was
guilty, but there being no witness to prove his
guilt, the jury could not do otherwise than
dismiss the case.
Mariposa Democrat., 1858-02-11

CuRIoUs.-There is little stream which
emptics into Shasta Valley, about twenty miles
west of the Great Butte, says the Grass Valley
Telegraph, which possesses the singular prop
erty of encrusting everything which falls into
its waters with complete coat of stone.-
Flowers, leaves, grass, pine buds, and things
of that sort, will become completely enameled
in the course of week or so, retaining in the
process their natural form.

OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBArH.-A large
number of the citizens of Nevada met at the
Methodist Church, Sunday evening, Jan. 31st,

STATE CoNTRoLLER.-Gov. Weller has ap-
pointed and the Senate unanimously coEfrm-
ed the Hon. A. r. Meloney, of Contra Costa,
as Controller of State, in place of S. II. Brooks,
Esq, withdrawn. The Controllorshp was Of
