The Assessors Receipts.

The Grass Valley National calls our at
teution to a case OF '.oflcial corruption" in
which IL il charged that Capt. Henderson
the DEPUTY asssssor, sold poll tax receipt
that was not signed by the Auditor. We
heard this care mentioned s'ne Tour or
ave months ago. and have been Informed
that the matter has been before two grand
iuries and unless the affair was satisfactor'-
ly explained we presume the offending depn'
~ would have been presenteti.--Nsuada

We suppose ths, Brennan made the above
statement to the Democrat.
The subject has never been Investigated
b. any grand jury, nor has Il been before
them. except ia the following manner: On
the last day Of the session Of the last grand
Jury bu. one. letter was received stating
tbe fact charged by US. The Sheriff vas i'm
ulediately dispatched TO Snow Tent to pro-
cure witnesses, but was unable to CO 80 be-
fore the adjournment Of the grand jury. who
accordingly voted to refer The matter to their
successors-,he last grand jnry. When this
body met. the written receipt copied by US
for tue last weeks National, was not before
them and 1t was aFccriained thst reces-
sary witnes, was then out OF the county
Accordingly tse matter was never considered
by them. and the Democrats presumption
''tha, the offending deputy would have been
presented unless tie affair was satisfactorily
explained" falls TO the ground. The Demo-
Gratis attempt to shirk the responsibility
from The principal to the offending deputy"
does not aid the matter. No ore will believe
that Capt. Henderson acted without the As
SCISSORS sanction in such violation OF official
duty. As we stated in oor last issue, the
instance cited ty us was not solitary one.
Has the Democrat any more explanations to
offer on this subject. II not. We venture the

MORMON LOVE SoNG.--The Valley

into possession OF the following lines,
addressed by a Mormon lover to his new
flame, who seems slightly reluctant to
be made number sixteen in his little
family. They will be pronounced al
most equal to James Gordon Benefits
pathetic lines addressed to Mary Ann :
Say, Susan. wilt thou come with me,
in sweet community to live? OF heart
and hand, and home to thee, a sixteenth
part II freely give.
OF all the love that swells my breast,
of all the honor Of my name; Of worldly
wealth by me possessed, sixteenth por-
tion thou shalt claim.
Nay. tell me not too many share the
blessings that l offer thee. Thou'lt find
but fifteen others there-a household
happy-gay and free.
a moderate household may say; my
neighbor has as many more. and Broth
er Brigham Ger the way luxuriates in
forty four.
l promise thee life of ease, and for
ttyself let thee choose such duties as
thy fancy please; Susan, canst thou still
refuse?
Sophronia cooks and sweeps the floors
and Hepzibah makes up the beds; Jemi-
ma answers all the doors. and Prudence
combs the children heads.
The household duties all devolve on
each according to her lot; but from such
labors Ill absolve my susan, if she likes
them not.
Into thy hands such tasks as take
dignity will lconsisn II. let thee black
my boots, or make the sock and shirt
department thine.
I'll give thee whatsoc'er thou wilt-so
it be but a sixteenth part; 'twould be
the deepest depth OF guilt to slight the
rest who share my heart,
Then wilt thou not thy friction yield
to make up my domestic bliss, Say yes
and let urjoy be sealed with JUS, the
sixteenth Of kiss.

Horses VS. Oxen.

Which is the most profitable team for
the farmer. horses or oxen? The ques-
tion has been variously debated. but we
have seen no better statement of both
sides Of the case than that given by
Thayer, in his Principle Of Agriculture.
He lin substanceJ says:
Horses are capab BILE Of all kinds Of
farm labor, they adapt themselves to ey.
cry road and degree of temperatures
When hcrses are kept, there is no ocea-
sion to select their particular kind Of
labor; they may be employed in any "a
Dor and be attached to any vehicle OF
implement of the farm.
Horses perform all kinds Of work ex.
peditiously as we'll as continually, thus
keeping those who labor with them
more fully employed than is the case in
working with oxen.
Horses. though less steady at heavy
draushts than oxen, have the advantage
# spirited, rapid motion, enabling them
to overcome all obstacles Of short dura-
ton and such as would frequently stop
oxen.
Oxen on the contrary. can perform
may kinds Of farm labor equally as we'll
Is the horse. and when well fed are ca.
pabIe ofenduring near'y as much fatigue.
Many persons consider them better than
horses io- plowins.
Oxen are kept much less extensively
their first cost is far below that of
horse-the;r harness is also much less
costly, and their food of cheaper char.
ecter.
Oxen, when we'll fed and not over.
worked. frequently increase in value.
thus almost paving the interest on their
original cost; horses, on the contrary de.
crease in value with ags, and finally be-
come dad loss to the owners.
Oxen are less liable to accidents and
disease. and produce greater amount
Of valuable manure than horses.
Another writer goes into lensthen.
ed comparison Of the cost of the same
work when executed by oxen or horses.
and states the ratio of the first to the
las, named as 50 100 to l0-giving
almost one-tourth advantage in the use
Of horses. This we think altogether too
arge-and that the economy in either
case depends upon the work. and the
plentitulness or scarcity of approp rate
tocd and work on the farm.

is too frequently considered degrading.
Even where the mother, in obedience to
the traditions of her youth, condescends
