hundred years hence there will doubtless be more

That the Census should be well and thor
oughly taken in California. during 1860,
many and grave reasons direct. The re-
turns will determine for the period Of ten
years thereafter, the number and weight Of
this states representation in the National
Legislature.
The remote situation of California in re-
lation TO the other States. her numerous and
urgent wants, as well as her peculiar and
varied interests. render the largest attaina-
BILE number of representatives a matter OF
the greatest importance.
The compensation for taking the Census is
under general law, suited TO other locali-
ties than this region and is so small as to
be insufficient TO provide even support in
this State for the deputy or agent taking
the samo. In order, therefore, to secure a
proper taking of the Census it behoves the
Legislature Of California TO make an appro-
priation from its own treasury, of not less
than 1000, for the payment of the census
takers We should not await Congressional
action to aid us. We look in vain for any
special aid in the matter. and among the
earliest acts of the approaching Legislature
should be one to further this object. Let US
see who will set the ball in motion.

sill Another Hond.

There is proposition on foot fo- the con-
struction Of still another wagon road over
the Sierra Nevada. via Bear Valley. This
road. we understand, follows the old Emil
grant Road from Steep Hollow and Little
York TO Bear Valley and some little distance
beyond. when II bears off to the left and in
tersects the Eureka road at Jackson's Ranch.
1t Is said by those who are acquainted with
this route. that ii is perfectly practicable and
can be made a better road than the one via
Placerville for $1,000. after the Yuba turn
pike shall have been completed. on the 9TH
side of the divide The direction from Sac
ramento to Virginia City, by this route, with
the exception Of short curve on the other
side Of the summit, is almost a direct line,

Err than the Placsrville route II is also

route. but not so practicable. The latter
il. at least, forty miles shorter than the
Placervile route, while, with the projected
improvements, the same team that is re-
quired to haul thirty hundred over that
road can, with greater facility, haul forty
fire hundred over the Nevada and Eureka
road.
The discoveries Of valuable mines along
the eastern slope Of the Sierras seems to be
attracting great attention to the passes over
the Sierras, and this once formidable barrier
to communication between the Sacramento
Valley and the Great Salt Lake Basin, Is
fast dwindling away to comparative insig-
nifcance before the persevering explorations
of the mountain pioneers.
But few years will elapse before good,
practicable roads will be opened, at compar-
atively short intervals, all along these noun
tains, from the borders Of Mexico to Oregon.
Formidable, indeed, must be those barriers,
which American enterprise will not scale to
reach the coveted treasure, which is now at
tracing 50 many thousands to the Eastern
slope OF the Sierra Nevadas.

PoIueioricai Wonders.

\ few days since, while on visit to Sta
pies gardens, we were shown a cluster of
three apples growing on little switch,
about four feet high. and averaging half an
inch i'm diameter. the result of September
blooms. The largest apple was four inches
in circumference. the next in size three, and
the smallest two and half They appear
thrifty, the leaves on the tree are green. and
the apples are striving hard to make some
thing Of themselves. A Siberian crab.apule
tree has brought TO maturity second crop
Of fruit, specimen of which we saw.
There is an unhrokep vitality in this coun-
try hardly known elsewhere. 1t seems to
have an eternal succession of springs and
autumns. Production, growth aud matara-
tion is the law, and the bosom OF the Pacific
slope ever stirs with . 2 life. Every
thing here. in the botanic way goes on in
double quick time As much is done ir one
year in California. as in the Atlantic states
in two. Here the trees OF the Orchards
grow vigorously nine months Of the year,
while in the Atlantic states they grow only
about half that time. How pleasant TO
laugh in the distance at the icy shackles OF
winter, and rejoice in the ever glaring life
Of interminable spring If outsiders knew
what was good for themselves. they would
crowd this country full of people in less

The Grcn, Pass over the sierra Nevada.

During the last eight years, the people OF
OF California have been laboring under the
delusion that the best pass over the Sierra
Nevada. was the one known as the Carson
trail. The discovery Of valuable mines on
the Eastern slope of the mountains has ava
kened the adventurous in every part of CAL
iforua, and every practicable pass has, in
consequence, been explored.
With those whose travels and opportuni-
ties enable a comparison of routes, the opin-
ion is universal that the Eureka and Truckee
pass is greatly superior to any other. In its
natural condition, even, uniInproyed by the
expenditure Of n single dolla. or q days la
Dor. for the passage Of Wagons, and much
more so for the passage of horsemen and foot
men, it is pre- ferable to the Plaeerville
ronte, in making which the people OF Placer
willie and FL Dorado counties have paid over
$4,000. In one year from this time, the
fact will be generally known and acknowi-
edged that the Pass from and through Ne
pada County is indeed the ONLY ONE north
Of the TejOn Pass tchich may, toifh safety
and convenience be hGreied, DURING ALL
SEASONS AND IN ANT WEATHER.
The great wagon road, over the noun
tains, concerning which the Sacramento
Union has contained thousand and one ed
itorials, proves, on comparison, humbug
and imposition. In every essential partcu-
lar, constituting good road, the Truckee
Eureka route is the better.
So manifest is this fact TO those who have
seen aud travelled over both routes, that we
may safely predict the construction OF the
Pacific Railroad through Grass Valley. Ne
vada and Eureka, via Truckee. To choose
any other route, after seeing this last named
would be an absurdity If not an insanity
The extension Of the Sacramento Railroad
10 the new town Of Lincoln. only about twen-
ty miles from this place, adds stronger prob
ability to this choice Of routes. Let the peo-
ple Of Nevada county awake to their inter
est. Let them arise, like a strong man. and
with resolution and good judgment proceed
TO the task of opening and repairing thi;
route. A meeting will be held at Nevada,
this euening, Dec. Sd, to take steps in fur
therence of this object. A large attendance
and CORDIAL cooperation Of citizens, it is ho
ped will be witnessed on the occasion.

ographieal advantages in favor Of the for
mer which are elsewhere alluded to.
We would call the especial atlention OF
the Sacramento Union to the above facts as
that paper seems, thus far. TO have almost
entirely ignored the possibility of any com
munication over the mountains through
this county. We here give the figures.
which speak for themselves. Ifany errors
can be pointed out We shall most cheerfully
make corrections.
The citizens Of this county are becoming
fully awakened to the Importance Of their
position, and no effort will be spared to Sc
cure the early construction, not only of the
contemplated mountain road. but alsoa rail-
road connecting the Sacramento Valley Rail-
road with the heart Of this county, 20 which
there are, at least, three practicable routes.

with most extraordinary success. In San
Francisco and Sacramento there appears to
be no diminution in the number OF persons
who throng their place of meeting and come
up to take the pledge" This move has
evidently developed al idea which touches
the heart aud satisfies the reason Of all who

Fatal Accident.

On The morning of Wednesday last. RAN
dali Mcdonnell, while at the bottom Of an
inclined shaft, worked By double cars, was
crushed by the decent of the loaded one, so
that he died in few minutes.
IT is supposed that the accident happened
in this wise: The laden car was drawn
strongly up to the stop" at the head of
the shaft, where, when it reached, the hook
loosened from the elasticity of the rope 10
which it was attached, aud before the car
man, above could seize it, the mass car and
all, rushed down tbe track, 200 feet, produc-
ing the melancholy result above mentioned.

The OBJ b-crvatory---Whcrc sbsuId it he {,

At the expense and under the direction of
the United States agents, an Observatory
is to be constructed in this State. OF course
it is most probably TO he located in the wrong
place-that is. at San Francisco, where the
fogs will, or do obscure the heavens twelve
out Of every twenty -four hours. and where
the Professors and gentlemen Of ease attach
ed and employed, may live on oysters. tur-
tie soup and the dainties of the sea.board.
Instead Of selecting such a location we
suggest that the Observatory be erected on
one Of the loftiest mountains Of the Sierra
Nevada, around which. throughout the year,
floats an atmosphere Of chrystal clearness.
through which every star CLEANS with un-
wonted brightness, from whence the rising
sun, each morning, can be greeted IN hour
earlier than by the denizens Of the city, and
all the fckle phases and various glimpses of
the moon be seen without cloud to con-
ceal them.
Nevada County will afford several beauti-
ful sites for such an Institution, and ne
hope the proposed selection will be careful
ly considered.
