led beneath Table Rock to Terminal alton
Point, and which those who desire to 60
under the sheet of falling water travers-
ed in oil cloth suits, has fallen away, and
there is now no means of getting to the
point ifit exists. One can walk about a
yard under the cataract, but no further
foothold is afforded. Ere long, doubt
less now that the stratum of soft rock
below has fallen and been pounded to
clay, the upper mass will fall, and then

CALIFORNIA PoPULATIoN.-The State
Register for 1859 gives the entire popu-
lation of this State at $4,000; of this
number, 3S,6S7 are Chinese 65.OOO In
dians, and 1000 are negroes; leaving a
white population of 432,313 This pop
ulation entities us to four Congressman;
we can't have them, however, until after
the United States CELSIUS Of 1860, when,
perhaps, our population will entitle us to
more. After that census there will be
material change in the county and
district representation in our State Leg
islature, which will give this county
more than double its present representa-
ton, and to which we have been emil
tied, virtually ever since 1856.

Phil. MooRE.-This gentleman is
beaten for Speaker. He is in bad luck
and perhaps the State also. If the sue
cessful gentleman is better qualified for
the Speakership than Phil. we haven't
the shadow of regret at the result, tho
county pride could induce US to wish
Nevada had produced a man for the AS
sembiy superior in every respect to the
lucky fellow from Placer. Stratton may
be the most accomplished Speaker in
the world for aught We. know. His
friends claim for him sterling qualities.
1t is to be hoped he has them, for the
sake oflegislation. His opening address
is not bad. In fact we don't recoilect,
just at this moment, the Introductory OF
one of his predecessors that sounded
poorly. From which circumstance We
conclude the salutatory of Speaker is
no indication of what he will do, and re-
ally amounts to very insignificant sum.
The proof of the man is to be seen in the
con.truction of his committees, his
promptness and impartiality. What
sort of man occupies the Speakers
chair will be learned by experience
the dear teacher ofthe State.

LEGlsLATIvE.-Nothing was done in
the Legislature up to Tuesday night but
to elect permanent officers, and com
mence the annual squabble over chap
lain. The Governors Message was
probably delivered yesterday. The
Secretary of the Senate and Clerk of
the House proceeded to read the same.
After mumbling over few lines, some
smart cuss OIL the floor of each house,
moved to suspend the further reading,
and print more copies than will be read.
in English, Spanish, German, French,
&c. AT about the same time each mem
Der will have lot of the printed copies
laid on his tablc-one of which we hope
to get day. Yesterday the President
of the Senate might be able to announce
his committees. One half the house
pver which he presides he is we'll ac-
quainted with-it holds over from las
year. The other half he can make him
self tolerably familiar with in three days
enough SO as to make judiciouS selec-
ton for committees.
The Assembly being comp posed of
eighty members, nearly all new men.
Mr.. Speaker Stratton is pretty good
judge of mankind if he makes their ac-
qua;ntance and arranges them commit
tee-wise by next. Monday. Standing
committees should be carefully made up.
Time ought to be taken to do the work
well. The Legislature may be expected
to get under way sometime next week.
AS the Senate is composed of men of
some experience in legislative bodies,
and as it is smaller and less unwieldy
than the Assembly, it will probably dcs
patch busin ess more rapidly. get ahead,
or its daily sessions will be brief. The
character of the present Legislature will
develop itself shortly.
