the average profit over all expenses exceed

many good farmers, that manure is more
profitably applied to corn than to any other
crop. An excellent farmer in this neigh
borhood thinks the cheapest way to raise
corn is on clover sod lie let's the e.cloyer
grow as long as possible in the spring and
then turns it under just before planting the
corn. The clover furnishes manure, and he
says the worms also feed on it and seldom
injurc the corn. A handful of plaster scat,
tered on the hill before the first hoeing is
generally considered profitable in this Sec

Hoes vs.. Docs" What dog lives upon
will keep hog" If anybody doubts the
truth Of the saving. let him kill his useless
dog, and put pig in the pen and give it the
dogs allowance. He will find in few
months that he has fine, fat porker, fit to be
eaten--a use the dog could not be possibly
applied to by any Christian man. There are
too many. II they had all been killed year
ago, there might be 200 pounds of good lat
pork in the country, to balance against every
dog SO set aside. which would be no incon,
siderable item IN the present scarcity Of sup
plies. Dogs are nuisance, and should be
taxed. While every farmer keeps his dog,
sheep stand poor chance 10 get through the

torn throats. The increase Of the dog pop
ulation accounts for The scarcity Of sheep!

WAR IN EURopE.-The storm has burst at
last, and Europe is the scene of more excite
ment than it has known since the days of
Bonaparte. The Southern Overland Mail
which reached San Jose on the 9Th inst,
brought dates from Vienna to May lst. The
reports say that the Austrian and French
troops were crowding into Italy, and that
there had already been an engagement be-
tween the Austrians and Sardinians at Buffa-
lora, resulting in considerable loss to the for
mer, though the latter had subsequently re-
tired. The Austrians had cut the telegraph
lines to Switzerland and seized on several
Sandman vessels on Lake Maggiore.- The
Emperor Napoleon was expected to join the
French army in Italy, on the Sd of May.
Several of his generals had preceded him.
England, Prussia and Russia were arming.
though it is not known what course Eng
land will pursue. She is represented as hay-

and her citizens at large, of course, sympa-

MURDER At MONEYS FLAT.-A yo ung man
BY the name of Moore, a Cherokee, was
killed at MONEYS Flat on Tuesday last by
an old man named Oague, who owns a ranch
at Deer Creek The circumstances of the
homicide, as related to us, are us follows
Moore and Oague had for some time dispu-
ted the ownership to some ground upon
which, within the formers enclosure, was q
spring. From this spring Oague proposed to
lead water in pipes to his own premises, but
was told by Moore that he would not be al
lowed to do so, as the spring was not his
property and did not furnish water enough
for two anyway. Oague proceeded, howev-
er, on Tuesday, to lay his pipe, which Moore
picked up and threw aside. An alteration
ensued when Moore pushed the old man who
became enraged, closed upon and stabbed
him several times. A bystandcr by the name
of Davis separated them, whereupon Oague
drew pistol and discharged it at Moore,
wounding him so that he died ina few hours.
Oague and Davis are both under arrest tho
Davis is thought to have interfered only
through good motives.

CAMprosv1LLE.-We were glad to observe

CAMPTosvILLE.--We were glad to observe,
on the occasion of recent visit to our ele-
waited neighbor, oa the other ridge, that it
wore very lively aspect. The traders ap-
peared to be doing considerable business,
and their stores were well supplied with
goods. The mines Immediately about town
are not yielding largely at present, but close
ly adjoining diggings are paying well, and
altogether there is tolerably large popula-
tion that contributes directly to maintain the
place and keep up its consequence. As
among the best evidences of prosperity and
contentment, we noticed with pleasure Sc
veral pretty cottages, porched and trellissed,
and surrounded by fruit trees, vines and
flowers. Camptonville supports good
school, Clergyman, lodges of Odd Fell
lows and Masons, and a Chapter of Royal
Arch Masons. 1t literally patronizes the
newspaper press of its own and adjoining
counties, besides purchasing large numbers
of Sacramento, San Francisco and Eastern
journals. The road leading from Campton-
vile to Freeman's Crossing and thence to
North San Juan is one of the best in the
State-good buggy driving on a trottfrg
grade nearly the entire distance of eight
miles.

Masonic FUNERAL.-On Friday, the 3rd of
June, Smith Baldwin was suddenly killed
at Galena Hill, near Camptonyille, by the
caving of bank in his mining claim. He
was about thirty-eight years Of age, and a
native of Newark, N. J. Before going to
Galena Hill, Mr.. Smith resided for several
years at French Corral, where his excellent
character made for him many friends, who
now speak of him in terms of warmest
praise. He was an esteemed member Of the
Masonic fraternity, and at the time of his
death, in afiiliation with Manzanita Lodge of
North San Juan. The brethren of Gravel
Range Lodge, No. SO, at Camptonville, un-
der the direction of their Master, W. Elwell,
very kindly charged themselves with the sad
duty of nterring his remains, which were
surrendered into their hands by his two bro
thers. On Sunday, the 5th inst, large
audience from Camptonville, Galena and
Young's Hill and North San Juan, assembled
in the school house at Galena Hill, where
religious services were performed and an i'm
pressive sermon delivered over the remains
by the Rev. Mr.. Seymour. A procession was
then formed, headed by about fifty Masons,
clad in the regalia of Blue Lodge and Chap
ter, who were followed by numerous con-
course Of ladies and others, and the body
was slowly borne to its last resting place.
This was an elevated knoll, tree crowned
and bushy, blooming with wild flowers, and
overlooking the blue ranges that lay piled
along the horizon in every direction. There
amid mossy-trunked, pyramidal cedars and
waving pines, which sighed a requiem while
they whispered of the ocean that emblems
eternity to man, all that was mortal of Smith
Baldwin was laid away in earth forever.
While the beautiful ceremonies of Masonry
were performed, the two afflicted relatives
stood by the grave the brothers of the mys-
tic tie circled about it, singing their funeral
hymn and dropping upon the coffin sprigs Of
evergreen-emblems of deathless remem-
brance and of immortality. Then, after
few touching words of farewell spoken by
the Master of Gravel Range Lodge and
benediction from the pastor, the grave was
closed, the dead was hid, and the living
went back to the world.

and Messrs Lyman & Co. had with difficulty
