Ex-Msyor Wood and nearly all the members of
the Common Council of 1857 have been indicted
for violating the provisions Of the charter in voting
to lease certain lots of grounds to the Roman Cath
olic Orphan Asylum. The point Of the charge is
that the Common Council voted lease without
limit Of time, when the charter fOrbds such lease
for more than ten years at time. In consequence
of the slovenly manner Of calling the yeas and nays
in the Board Of Councilmen, large number of the
members are set down as voting yea" when they
were not present at al, or, if there, had not the
least idea Of the business on hand. The bill was
smugged through this Board, during an exciting
contest on the Cleaning contract, no chance
being given for debate; and only when it reached
the Board of Aldermen did its real character be-.
come apparent. There it was discovered to be an
electioneering dodge to get the Roman Catholic
vote for Mayor Wood, who had just been renomiuat
ed. The lease has never been executed, it having
been declared unlawful by the Supreme Court
and tie Controller refusing to sign the papers.

New YORK, April 2l.-Carracas papers of
March 3lst are received. The overthrow of
Monagas is complete, but his fate was not
yet decided. Some persons were clamoring
for banishment, others for his execution.
Placards ere posted in the streets rehearsing
the crimes of the fallen tyIant. One of these
gives list of the robberies perpetraled under
the Monagas rule, amounting to $l7 ,250, 900
of which $6,250,000 were taken BY the two
Monagases. 1t is stated that the American
Minister advised Monngas before his fall to
declare Caracas in state of siege. and him
self Dictator. The Dutch, Spanish, French,
and English ministers also endeavored to pre-
vent his fall. 1t was thought that the whole
diplomatic corps would receive congo flom the

WASHINGTON, April 2l.-The report of the

in detail the way in which the contract sys-
TEN operates in that particular branch of the
service. The committee say that the printers
to the thirty third aud thirty fourth Congress
each let his contract to other parties, reserving
to themselves large per centage for doing
nothing These per centages amount, at pres
ent, to $50, 900 per month. A similar state
of facts exists with regard to the contracts for
binding. That for the thirty fourth Congress
was contracted for at twenty-five per cent.
less than former prices. The contractor sold
his contract for twenty two pei cent. on the
gross amount, and the sub contractor re-let to
third party, who agreed to do the work and
pay him one-hat of the profits, after deduct
ing the twenty per cent, to the original con-
tractor.
The committee, with a view to end the
present abuses, propose to establish bureau
for the execution of printing, binding, en-
craving, &C., the Office of superintendent to
be abolished. They are satisfied that by this
method, the work can be done at saving OF
thirty to fifty per cent.

MINING IN CALIFoRNIA.-It appears that
the present mining season promises rich re-
turns TO the miners. The Sonora Democrat
speaks Of the discovery of a vein of quartz
of great richness near Tuttletown. Pieces of
quartz were taken out, that contained one
half gold. The Placer Courier of March 4th, ,
speaking Of the tunnels in that vicinity says
the Dardanelles claim yielded sixty ounces
out OF twelve pans of earth, one pan contain
ing fifteen ounces.-1he Gore claim yields
weekly about five hundred ounces, and the
Washington claim, same county, paid its own
ers in one week $4,000 New and rich dig
gings have been discovered on the Sacramento
river, in the neighborhood of the Soda
Springs, by man who found nugget worth
$50. Eight hundred dollars were taken out
OF the Pleasant Valley quartz mill, two days
running, says the Plaeerville Democrat. The
vein is large. easily worked, and promises to
be one of the richest in the state. At Neva-
da company realized $4,000 in eight days
work. We find the following in the Sonora
Democrat, March goth
Another rich deposit was found in the Ital.
ian quartz claim last Monday. One piece of
quartz was taken out supposed to contain
fifty ounces of gold. Out of two pans of
rotten quartz and dirt, thew realized $4,000.
We could not learn how large an amount was
realized during this week, but presume it
must be quite large. The richness of the
Cardlneil claim seems to be on the increase
During the last week they have taken out
more gold than at any time previous. At
this claim, during the week, they are taking
out large quantities Of ore. that seems to be
more than half gold. From present indica.
tons this claim will Guido the great Carson
Creek lode for Its richness. rich quartz
vein was discovered on Monday, at the head
OF Chile Gulch, near Algerine Camp. 1t
