Trouble with the Chinese in Australia.

An act was short time since passed i'm
posing an annual resident tax of f4 per head
upon the Chinese residents Of Australia. In
July, the authorities commenced collecting
the first quarterly instalment of the taX' but
found it TO be a far more difficult matter than
they had apprehended In the mining dis
tricts of Landhurst and Castlcmaine, the
Chinese were massed together in great mum
hers and offered firm resistance to the de-
mands of the tax gatherers. In the latter
district. they marched in procession three
thousand strong, and presented a memorial to
the Warden. setting forth that the tax was
oppressive, and not in accordance with the
treaty between England and China. At
Saudhurst, similar demonstration was made,
and public meeting was held after the
English fashion. A petition was adopted
and determination expressed to resist the
tax by every lawful means as unjust and
oppressive. At Beechworth, the demonstra-
tion was much more menacing. Placards
were circulated, warning the Chinese against
paying the tax, and threatening punishment
to those who did. The placards were, of
course, written in Chinese characters, and
created great excitement among the Asiatics.
The united confederacy of the Chinese of the
Obens, Standhurst and Castlemaine districts
issued proclamation calling upon the Chi
nese miners to cease work. and Chinese store
keepers to close their places of business, and
to have no dealings with the Europeans, and
to pay no tax of any kind-any Chinaman
paying a tax was to be fined. 1t was also
reported that another proclamation had of
fered reward of $4,000 to any one who
would kill q certain officer of the Govern
mcnt.
The Melboure Argus, of June 18th, says
that the Chinese appear to be divided among
themselves, the cause of dispute being the
installation of new Josshouse-keepor, a
"third district" man, the one rejected being
from the "fourth district"
The Argus adds that matters appear to be
subsding into something like quietude among
the Chinese recusants; and it is probable
that the majority of them, finding their re-
monstrances Intellectual, will pay the frs
installment of the residence tax, and appeal
to the new Parliament to reduce the amount
of the impost.

The San Juan Island Affair.

Latest advices from Washington state that
the instructions sent to Gen. Harvey, in re-
gard to the San Juan Island affair, will be of
the most temperate and conciiiatory charac'
ter. The New York Herald's Washington
correspondent says:
"The jealousy of Gov Douglas was need
lessly excited. No collision with the Brltish
troops on the subject is apprehended 10y the
Governments The President was secretary
of State " hen the boundary treaty was me-
gotiated under President Polk, and is perfect
ly familiar with all the circumstances attend
ing it. He and Robert j. Walker were the
only members of Mr.. Polk's cabinet who op-
posed the 49th parallel; they adhered to Or
degrees 40 minutes as our just limits. NO
doubt need be entertained that the title to
San Juan will probably be adjusted, as the
President must be perfectly aware oil our
rights, and will ask for nothing more. Inc
long connection of Gov. Douglas with the
Hudson's Bay Company doubtless causes him
TO view the country in that vicinity as unuer
the jurisdiction and protection OF the BRUSH
Government, at least if not actually the pro-
perty of the Company, and his interest may
have rendered him eXcitable and incorporate
in his actions. The cabinet was in session on
the subject, and the tenor Of the Instructions
to Gen. Harney will be of the most temper
ate and coneiiiatory character"
The New York Times Washington CORES
pondent says much annoyance is felt there
both by the English Legation and the SecFe-
tary of State, at the recent news from San
Juan. The relations of the two Govern
ments having lately become most cordial and
friendly, it is hoped that the good sense oi
both powers may prevent any serious mis-
chief in the premises.
The Bulletins Washington correspondent
says that from what is ascertained there II
seems that Cen Harney has no direct or Ger
tain instructions to seize San Juan Island, anc
the impression is that he will be ordered t'
withdraw our troops, and whatever end Is t(
ensue will be accomplished by peaceful nego
| tiation

INDIANS CAPrURED.-We learn from the
Red Bluff Beacon, that Commissary S. d..
Johns succeeded, with detachment of vol
unleers, week before last, in surrounding and
capturing all the Indians that belonged to
the tribes known as the Con.Cows, Kimshews
and the Tigers, on the head waters of Feath
er river and the West Branch, and arrived
with them on Sunday the I'd inst, at Tehama
en- route for the Meudocino Reservation. The
Indians numbered two hundred and eighteen,
exclusive Of children.

MINING IN TIE KERN RIVER DIsrRIor.-A
correspondent of the Tulare Record, writing
fro m Keysville, Buena Vista county, says
that everything there is in a most wretchedy
collapsed state. and adds:
However, we still have hope and energy,
and with these we may yet find ourselves at
some future time hourishing and prosperous.
Many of the quartz veins which have paid
well heretofore, are not now being worked
and those that are, are worked on a limited
scale, hence our gloom and want of prosper
ity. This arises in great measure from the
want of capital, and the heavy expense in
cured in getting out the rock, now that many
of the best veins have been worked to a great
depth-and it requires more time and labor
to obtain even c.half the amount of rock
that it formerly did.

SANTA CLARA AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY w e
clip the following from the San Jose Tele-
graph. 1t speaks well for Sunta Clara coun.
ty:
During the last spring the society pur.
chased about seVenty-siX acres of land about
a mile and half from San Jose, on the Ala
media, which cost Sc, l42, and which sum was
made up by subscription among our citizens
and have been actively engaged, for months
past, in making all necessary improvements
upon it for holding there the County Fair on
the Sth of October.
Two artesan wells have been bored on the
ground, affording an abundant supply of wa
ter for stock on exhibition and other uses.
The grounds are enclosed by most substan-
tial beard fence, eight feet high. The prin-
cipal entrance will be on the Alameda, where
two fancy structures are being erected one
on each side Of the entrance.
Much expense and labor have been be.
slowed on the race track, which is a mile in
length and circular, and so leveled and pull
verized as to make is smooth. The Judges
stand will be one hundred feet long and
twenty Two feet wide, with seats so elevated
rearwards as to afford an unobstructed view
to the persons occupying them.
The stables are numerous and commodious
and a great number of stalls, rooted and in
proper condition for the reception of stock
are being built and will be completed before
the fair opens
In all the arrangements made by the mana
gers, we observe "A comprehensive and liberia
spirit displayed and determination to make
the fair ground of the Santa Clara Valley
Agricultural Society far superior to any OF
the Pacific coast, and equal to the best in til,
Union, and we cannot but feel surprised Al
the great amount of labor performed since
the society undertook it, and the complete
ners of the work
We learn that the Society, since its organi
zation, has expended about the sum of SIP
600, and that it will take S7OO more thar
they have got subscribed, to complete tn,

AN ExAMPLE.-The example of the young
man Burns who has been arrested for en-
bezzling the funds of Langton d Co., of this
city, to so large an amount, should be a warn
ing to a good many (far too many,) young
men in Marysville, who are posting the same
road which, unfortunately for all his pros
poets in life, he took. He first became in
volved by gambling. Strivingto recover his
losses. he became still more deeply involved.
Finally he began to use money belonging to
his employers. Unable to repay it, he con-
cluded that discovery was inevitable and dis
grace certain, and, feeling that all was lost,
he stole large additional amount to that
which he had already squandered, and en-
deavored to make his escape to the Atlantic
States. The sequel is known. He was ar
rested, made full confession Of his guilt, and
must of course be sentenced to the pcniten-
tiary. What Executive clemency may dc
for him remains to be seen. AT any rate, he
is disgraced young man.
We repeat that this example should be a
warning to a good many young men in this
city. They imagine that it is very smart to
gamble 1t is a very fine thing to "bucll at
the tiger" They spend all the money they
can make betting at faro, in some by-hole or
other which has escaped the eye of the police.
These youths are on the sure road to ruin.
The most of them are dependent upon small
salary for their support. Some of them have
mothers and sisters whom they are under
obligations to maintain. They are amply
able to do it, by prudence and economy, but
if they "buck at the tiger" they will sooner
or later be penniless. Then comes the huge
temptation to poach upon the drawer of the
employer. A first sin sets on foot a second
and ere he is aware of it, the lately homes
and high minded young man is a thief and {
felon. Let such be warned in time
