AUSTRIAN REFoRMs.---A Paris correspon'
dent says: The Emperor Of Austria, with
the fate of the King Of Naples before him,
has determined to profit by the lesson, a nd
has at last published decree granting con-
st!tutional reforms to his entire Empire.
The proud Hapsburg is no longer the arbi-
trary sovereign of his millions of subjects,
The Diets of the different provinces have a
voice in the administration Of affairs and
Hungary is accorded many of her ancient
rights. For Venice nothing has been
done.

MINING AT SAN JuAN.-We fnd the follow
ing mining items in the Hydraulic Press OF
this morning:
A large number Of mining claims have
changed owners within the past few weeks at
Ais Mace. and others are changing hands daily
Some mining interests have been sold at what
in certain localities, would be thought enor-
nous prices; whilst here, among our miners'
who are acquainted with the soil and Its value'
they are esteemed merely nominal. =,
K short time since, Moore x Redshaw soid
their "Mud Cut" ground for $23,OOO.. Inc
Knickerbocker Company were the purchasers.
The same gentlemen sold other interests to the
NJ. G. Canal and Water Company for about
50 600. The Messrs. Belcher, Of Marysvllle'
also sold to the water company their interest III
the same ground for several thousand dollars.
Occasionally, from indirect, yet reliable sour
ces. we obtain information of the amount oil
| gold taken out by the various companies, not
Withstanding their studied efforts at conceal
ment We are enabled to state, that at their
last clean up, the Eureka Company, after eight
days and half run, took out $5,oOO. Inc
Britannia Company took out, after an elght
days' run, little rising of $4,000. The Met.
ropolitan Company, after a run of eight days,
took out S4 600. Messrs. Moore & Readshaw
took out $4,000 il eight days run; and the

WALLACE MONUMENTAL friend hos hand
ed US a small pamphlet giving sketch OF
the movement for erecting monument to
William Wallace, the patriot hero OF Scot
land, together with a list Of the principal
contributors and promoters, and llnely
executed steel engraving of the Monument.
Among the contributions, we notice the
sum of $500 from Grass alley, California,
which we presume was contributed by the
Wallace Monument Association, organized
In this county some years ago. The monu-
ment is to be placed on the "Abbey Craig"
which overlooks the field ofStirling Bridge,
where Wallace obtained his greatest victory
on the llth of September, 1907. To COM
plete the monument according to the plan
adopted, the sum of $35, 900 is required, OF
which $4,000 has been subscribed and is
now at the disposal of the Committee, In
order to raise the additional $4,000, the
committee now make on appeal to the de-
scendGnts of the men who bled with Wal
lace and we're led by Bruce-Scottisb pa;ri-
OTIS both at home and abroad-aa appeal
which will no doubt be responded to'

STATE FINANcEs.-Th Sacramento Union
OF the 9Th inst, estimates the receipts OF
the general fund into the State Treasury,
to the first of March next, at $685. The
current expenditures are estimated at $780,
500, which would leave deficit Of over
$4,000. The settlement Of the State Prls-
on question, at cost Of $275,0OO, is the
chief cause of the present impoverished
condition of the general fund, and 1t is DIFF
flcult to devise plan for liquldating the
obligations accruing, without an increase
OF the rate of taxation, or the opening Of
some new sources Of revenue. The interest
and sinking fund, on the first OF January
next, will be sufficient to pay the $l33,O0O
interest then due, and leave upwards Of
100000 with which to redeem the out
standing State bonds.

The rates formerly paid was twenty cents

mense advantage to the miners.

THE San Francisco authorities, says the Call,
have opened a crusade against houses of i'll
fame, the first movement having been made by
the late Grand Jury, which has indicted some
two dozen or more houses Of unquestionable
character. The object appears to be TO compel
the inmates Of the bagnios to practice the arts
heretofore been doing, and to force them 20
withdraw the trappings OF their vicious practi-
ces from the general gaze.
