unpleasant condition of the streets and the prospect

cause is the necessity of economy, forced upon the

An lMPRovEMEST-It will be a subject for re-
joicing among those interested to know that OH
Monday night last bill passed the City Council
providing for arching over of the gulley running
through the square bounded by Ninth and Tenth
streets west, and and II streets north, known as
the Middleton property. The run which divides
this square transversely empties into the great
Ninth street sewer and thence into the CITY Canal
All the fifth, dirt. ashes, rubbish, and scrapings
of every desert ptiOn that annually accumulate
within reasonable distance Of this spot are carted
there and deposited, and have been for years. to
say nothing of the thousands Of cart loads of dirt
carted to the spot annually by contractors for
grading streets. Yet the gulley is nearer being
filled up than it was ten years ago, aud the reason
why is obvious. The run Is provided with
1oodly sized stream of water constantly and
whenever rain of considerable volume falls it
becomes swollen to sometimes ten times its natural
force and volume, and this extra agitation of the
waters causes the loosely dumped dirt to be swept
away down the gulley, and ii does not find
quiet place thencef0rwaId until 1t reaches the bed
of the City Canal, where 1t forms those ugly bars
So detrimental to canal navigate on and which
cost the Corporation not little annually to have
dredged ont There are other BILE features
about this square, especially in summer, which
are OF an unmentionable character, and have long
been a crying nuisance to the surrounding neigh
borhood These also will be abatetf by the arch
ing Of the run, and people residing there
aboats will, it is to be hoped, have no further
cause for complaint.

Essex in the killing of Mr. c. w. Rabory Of

WASHINGTON ITEMS.

WASHINGTON, April 90.
The Tribune's Washington correspon-
dent telegraphs that it is stated that Ex
Governor Walker has sent a challenge to
Judge Black, and that the Judge declines
its acceptance. The affair origin ated with
the expressions made use of by Judge
Black relating to letter Of the Presidents
He declares that if such letter was in ex-
istence it was forgery.
A caucus OF Republican Senators to day
resulted in an agreement to support the
Nicaraguan treaty, with an amendment
guarding the use of troops by Congression
al legislation. The ratification of the
treaty may be considered a fixed fact.
The question involved in the protest of
the Spanish minister against the capture
of the steamer is as to their legal transfer
from their Spanish owners to Gen. Mira
mon previous to that occurrence.
The amount of money in the treasury
subject to draft is nearly seven millions of
dollars, an increase of the sum on hand
the previous week, of half million.
There is reason to believe that the House
committee on foreign affairs will report a
bill providing for first class mission to
Sardinia. in accordaece with Mr.. BurlIn
gains resolution adopted to-day.
Evidence is to be produced before the
Covode investigating committee with a
view to impeach the testimony which led
to the difficulty between Gov. Walker and
Judge Black.
Ii is said that the members Of the Cabi-
net are perfectly willing that Gov. Walker
shall designate those to whom he referred
as in his opinion shaping the affairs of

fifty people leave San Francisco daily, for
the mines; and the emigration is proper
