Work for the Legislature.


Several important subjects will engage the
attention of the Legislature this winter, the
first in order being the Senatorial election.
For the dispatch of the subsequent business
of the session, and regard for the pockets of
the tax payers, it is earnestly to be hoped
this may occupy but little time, but be dis
posed of at the earliest possible moment
The people have made up their minds as to
who they want, and if their wish is carried
out promptly, that question will be disposed
of in few days after the meeting.
Following this is the State Prison business,
that almost every one is anxious to see ad
iusted in manner to save the State from
from the clutches of the harpies who hold
the contract, and have its management again
returned to the State uthorities-the only
trustees so far, entitled to praise f,r a hu-
name and economical administration.
The time has also arrived when definite
of Capitol building at Sacramento the
place almost unanimously conceded to be
the permanent Capital of the State. We
cannot see that anything is to be gained by
delay; the present prosperous condition Of
the States finances will certainly admit of
the commencement of the work now as well
as several years hence.
The San Francisco bone of contention.
the Bulkhead scheme will ain be brought
up and engage large share of attention.
We consider it Tut a question of time when
Bukhead bill will pass; to whose care the
work shall be intrusted, seems the most di fiji
cult to decide.
Another magnificent scheme, much petted
in some quarters is, loauing the aid of. the
sist in building a Pacific Railroad from San
Francisco to the Eastern boundary Of the
State. This scheme may be regarded with
suspicion; we are anxious, however, to see
in what shape it will be presented.
An overlooking State Treasury is sugges-
tive of a reduction in the State tax, which
we think, this yearFcan safely be conceded by
the Legislature.
There will be plenty of other work of
general or local character; and on the whole
there appears to be every probability of a
three months session.

Waking Up.

Nevada county possesses an enterprlsng
population Of miners, who are not slow in
looking after good diggings when they are
to be had; and from the accounts we have
seen tl,ara-~-~ mary, CT more Nevada
county men owning or working in the new
mines of the Washoe country, than from
any other county in this State And the
favorable accounts sent on brought home by
these men, are awakening the people Of Ne
vala to the importance of a direct connec-
ton with The new mines, by good wagon
roads. They are sanguine of the rapid de-
veopment of a rich mining regi.n, teening
with an industrious population, and the
growth of a carrying trade and travel worth
liberal outlay of money to secure; and
therefore they propose to obtain it 10y con
structing good road right through the heart
of their county to the diggings. 1t has
been ascertained, without doubt, that the
line of travel from the mines to Sacramento,
through Nevada county, would be shorter
and better than the present circultous route
by Carson City and Placervile, and public
call has been made 10y large number of
prominent citizens, for meeting to adopt
immediate measures for carrying forward the
necessary work. We like the spirit exhibit
ed, and hope they will not stop short of sue
cess in an enterprise so intimately connected
with the prosperity of their county.
Nevada is not alone in having a favorable
route to the new diggings; Placer county
can advance q good claim in that respect;
and could our people be urged to action, we
might, at any early day, have direct commu-
nication with the new mines, over road Sc
cond to none now built CT in contemplation
The benefits to be derived are certainly worth
the effort to obtain, and we again submit the
question, SIS it not time action was taken!'

but hope it will see the propriety, through
the remainder Of the Senatorial contest, o.
rejecting communications containing vindic
tive and uutruthful assaults upon Gov. Wei
Ter, similar to the etfusion of "Specrator" in
the columns of that journal few weeks
since.

Democratic Committee of Placer County.

The PREVAILING SENTIMENT From every
part of the State an expression is heard in
favor Of Gov. Weller for the L. S. Senate.
From mountain and valley it is the same.
Everywhere outside of certain small political
circles, the Democracy are for Weller. The
people are making known at home their
preference, TO their repre- sentatives deter
mining that TO be the place where the popu-
lar will shall be ascerlained instead of at
the Capital, where a few gentlemen will I'M
dertake to inform representatives more
fully as to the will of their constituents than
the constituents could themselves.
If the sentiment of the party is regarded,
Mr.. Weller will have large majority over
all opponents.
The SKIES ARE CLEAR.-Atter more than
three weeks Of wet and cloudy weather,
the skies have again become clear; but
whether for more than a day, admits of
doubt. We will wait little before Offering
an opinion. Two or three weeks of clear
weather now would be Of general benefit-to
the farmers, for blowing and seeding; to
teamsters and merchants in getting stock of
goods and provisions to the mountains; to
builders, to push forward their partly built
houses; to miners, to put their claims i'll
good order; and to out door occupations
generally. Yes, little season Of dryness
is very much desired, and everybody is no.
ping that it may come.

- A DoLoRors But GRAPHIC VIEW OF HUMAN
2 'AFFAIRs-A correspondent of the Hlseon-
sia cAicf thus sums up the characteristics Of
human existance:
All confidence il lost betw cen man and

thing. Shrewd business managers are cheat
ing God in their professions, and the devil
mustard, and coffee of chickory. Young
Hyson is raised in the COW pasture, and
Young America in the dram shop Pure
wines are made of poor whisky, and Haranas
of herbs, Rascality has become a virtue,
ana rot eu. t'.rnel 70 vinegar. Legislatures
are marked AZ mer, hants mark goods, and
the peoples funds absorbed by /" charitable
purposes. D 'rsis. .-4 81! s.ssera = D..
Governors are knocked OF for $50, 900 !;
legislatures from $4,000 to $4,000. Rail-
roak stock is down below zero. Caucuses
are "packed," and young men electioneer-
ing on the Sabbath. Fairbanks scales have
taken to swiddling, and old rats selling
their tails 10 spike cannon. Jewsharps are
palmed off as harps of a thousand strings,
and Democrats as |" genuine Republicans y
sperrits of just men made perfect. Sausages
are adulterated, and tempting links seem to
wag in the most dogged manner. Our ter
ritory, as well as our crinoline, is definitely
expanding. In fine, there are none truth
full save horse,jockeys; none patriotic save
politicians; none talented but those who
make on change Of a grocery corner, and
cheat out of the needy what they give to
the Lord. .+

MIR. Bushanan's Expenses at the
White House.
WAsHINGrOY. April

WAsHIyGToy, April 20.
Much has been said of the large expenses
connected with the White House, and the
cost OF keeping up the dignity of the Presi-
dents position. There never was a greater
mistake Mr.. Buchanan must save at least
$4,000 year from his salary, as will be
readily seen by comparison with his more
recent predecessors, most of whom retired
with very comfortable provision. Mr.. Tyler
is believed to have carried away $50, 900 or
$4,000 Mr.. Polk took home q much lar
ger sum. Mr. Fillmore, who served some
thing over two years and a half, was quite
up to the mark of Mr.. Tyler; and Mr..
Pierce, who lived more hospitality and gen.
erously than either of those named, saved
about 100000. All these Presidents incur
red some expenses from which Mr. Buchanan
is entirely exempt. The White House is
now heated and lighted entirely at the pub
tic charge. \ large kitchen garden is cul
tivated, which furnishes all the vegetables
required, and more. A fine greenhouse
has been added, which is found both useful
and ornamental. Just before the inaugura-
ton Of Mr. Buchanan, the private secretary
of the President was made salaried office,
with $4,000 per annuni and clerkship at
IL. VINO Wds pTeFl-
ously paid out of the Presidents private
purse, was also salaried at $1,000, and mes
sengers were added, to reduce the outlay
for servants.
The only serious cost now incurred is for
the official dinners during the sessions of
Congress, and il is well known that Mr. Bu-
chanan has been prudent beyond example
in this respect His ordinary household
consists of three or four persons and the
servants, and there are fifty gentlemen in
the city who maintain more style snd spend
more money without any appearance of ex-
travagance. Mr.. Buchanan has always been
careful manager, and now finds plenty of
time to examine his market book, amid all
the cares of state and the pressing demands
fer office. 1t ia not surprising, in this view,
that he should lie willing to try second
term.

By- A Baptist Society in one of New
England villages, have purchased one of the
patent cast steel bells made by Naylor,
vickers & Co.. Sheffield, England. These
bells are new thing in this country, but
have been in use for several years in Eng
land and other parts of Europe. They are
said to have very pure and melodious tone,
peculiar to steel, and in many respects to be
superior to the bells in general use. This
bell weighs l,500 pounds, and is equal TO
one of 5000 pounds of bronze or American
composition. The cost of the bell was $500,
or about one-third less than others of SINH
lar dimensions and power.
