nad decared DIVIDEND OF four and not five per cent
had severe effect n on the market this morning
Gslena itself Ell off Il per cent, and the Western
share and general railway market sympathized. It
need hardly be remarked that far as the stock is
concerned, it is worth more under present circum-
stances than it would have been had the company
declared a dividend which had not been fairly
earned or left themselves without any surplus to
meet contipe encies Il is understood that the money
to pay four per cnt is now in bank in this city.
Rock Island sympathized with Galena to the extent
of per cent New York Central declined 4. The
street was full of silly stories about the damage
done by the fire at Buffalo, an accident which,
even leaving insurance out of view could no; well
cost the company twenty thousand dollars. Erie
declined 4; Hudson, 4; Harlem, /; Reading, I;
Michigan Southern, 4; Cleveland and Toledo, {.
Pacific Mail continues steadily to improve; it
closed this morning at ! advance over yesterdays
prices. Pennsylvania Coal and Delaware and
Hudson were shade lower. The transactions in
bank stocks were limited and without change in
prices. In the bond market there was very little
done. La Crosse land grants improved a }; State
and railroad bonds steady but dull at last quo
tations. The market closed a shade stronger, but
became weak and inanimate almost directly after
ward.
At the second board Galena and some other spe-
culative securities advanced shade but there was
very little business done. The closing prices at
Kowalskis after the board were Pacific Mail, 9Os;
New York Central, 95i; Erie, 10; Harlem, ll3;

Between Messr.. Lee and street.

In the Assembly on the 10th, in his speech on
Lees mob-bill, Mr. Street intimated that many
of the veterans of the Democray were in oppo-
stion TO it, and that upon the shoulders of some
of those who most bitterly denounced all op-
posed to it as anti-Democrats, the cloak of De-
mocracy had heretofore sat SO lightly that the
slightest wind of adversely was sufficient to
blow it off. twas this intimation, we presume,
that oceasioned the following remarks, which
we find in the Unions report of the debate of
the 18th on the same bill:
Mr.. Lee--Iask the gentleman from Shasta If
when he looked this way, and talked about
Eew-hedged Democrats, he alluded to me?
Mr. Street. did not use that term The pre-
else language thatI used ON that occasion was,
that had always been Democrat and I ask
ed can the gentleman from Ell Dorado say the
same?
Mr. Lee am informed that the gentleman
has not always been a Democrat, and have
got letter in my desk of which the gentleman
can have the benefit.
Mr. Street, should like to see it,
Mr. Lee have got it here will find it, and
will give it to you.
Mr.. STREE claim that it should be intro
duced here, after what has been said If lei
ter has been received by the gentleman, dispu-
ting my Democracy, demand that the authors
name shall be known
Mr. Lett is from Mr.. Stewart, Prosecuting
Attorney in this city. He says that you was II
member of the Wing party, and that as long as
the Know Nothing order was in existence, you
belonged to the organization, and that you first
joined the Democratic party in support of Mr.
Buchanan.
Mr.. STREET-The man who makes such a re-
mark, declaring it to be true from his own per-
sonal knowledge, utters that which is false
Sensation.
sf Mr.. LEE-Do you refer to me?
Mr. SrREET-You give me your authority
take him.
In the evening session Mr. Lee stated that he
had made mistake in saying that he had
letter from gentleman who disputed Mr. Streets
Democracy. The communication referred to
another person.

THE 100000 FLOUR MILL.-We recently sta
ted thet there was -four mill near San Jose,
which cost at the time of its erection, some years
ago, 100000, mentioning it not so much as an
item of news, as illustrative of the extravagant
notions and lavish expenditure of money at that
day in California. This statement was looked
upon by many of our contemporaries as prepos-
ferrous, some suggesting that one cypher too
many had doubtless been added to the figures.
The following from the San jose Tribune which
ought to know, fully corroborates our statement:
A COSTLY FIGURING MILL-The mill of Mr. J.
Lick, three miles below San Jose, on the Quad
alupe, Santa Clara county, is a remarkable in
stituton in it way. 1t splendid brick struc-
ture, and the frame work of the machinery is of
solid mahogany; the whole internal appearance
is as neat and finished that of first class
steamer. The building and improvements cost
at least S400, ,000.-.S +. Times.

THE UTAH DELEGATE IN CoNGREss-A Wash
ington letter gives this sketch of Mr.. Bernhisel
The delegate is of the most quiet and
pleasant gentlemen in the House In deport-
ment, tone and voice, person and countenance,
he bears striking resemblance to Robert j.
Walker. He is a native of Pennsylvania He
looked haggard and worn after his long journey
over the plains on his first arrival but has since
recruited. Although he has been in the House
for six years, recolect hearing him speak but
once, and that was to protest against anv dis
cussion of the social and domestic institutions
of Utah. His forte is taciturnity. In private
conversation he is fluent and agreeable He is
an industrious man of business, and attends
faithfully to the interests of his constituents He
is rather short of stature His head is nsarly
bald, but iron-gray locks projecting diagonally
from the skull near the ears, upward and for
ward, resembling the horns with which the old
masters used to embellish their portraits of Sa-
tan, who was and is noted as long-headed po-
litican

A Temperance Joke.

Joe Harris was whole-souled merry fellow,
and very fond of glass After living in New
orleans Tor many years, he came to the conclu-
sion OF visiting an old uncle away up in old
Massachusetts, whom he had not seen for many
years. Now there is difference between New
Orleans and Massachusetts in regard to the use
OF ardent spirits, and when Joe arrived there he
found all the people run mad about temperance;
he felt bad, that keeping the spirits down" was
one OF the best ways to make time pass, and
began to feel that he in pickle But on
the morning after his arrival, the old man and
sons being at work. his aunt came TO him and
said;
Joe, you have been living in the south, and
no doubt are in the habit of taking something
TO drink about eleven o'clock Now keen some
for medical purposes but let no one know it,
as my husband wants to be good example
Joe promised, and thinking he would get no
more that day, he took, as he expressed it,
buster After he had walked out to the stable,
who should meet him but his uncle
Well joe said he, 4 expect that you are ac-
customed to drinking something in New Or
leans, but you will find us all temperate here,
and for the sake of my sons, don't let them
know that have any brandy about, but | Just
keep little for my rheumatism; will you take
some :?
Joe signifed his readiness, and took another
horn Then continuing his walk he came to
where the boys were mauling rails. After con-
versing awhile, one of his cousins said:
Joe, expect you would like to have dram,
and as the old folks are down on liquor, we
have some out here TO help us on with the
work

God made me of one color, and you of another !;
but God was partial to you, and made you of
better color. A white man can do ANYTHING,
and make anything Other orators expressed
similar sentiments. All seemed humbly to ad-
init the superiority of the white man, because
he was white and readily submitted to it, since
God willed that it should be so.

pss1 The Paris Charirari pretends to have
New York paper, by its correspondent at Wash

the House during the reading, with his pockets
full of revolvers and that not satisfied with the
reception given to the document he shot at the
clerk, the speaker, and several members of the
opposition; and then on his way home through
the Pennsylvania Avenue, emptied the rest of
the barrels on the passers-by. Chaneari asserts
