Catching il.

Bayard Taylor is catching 1t from ultra
Protestant sheets, because he has had the
manliness to declare that the secular rule of
the Pope of Rome is no despotism, but on
the contrary, mild and beneicent He says
the government is one Of the most cconomi-
cal in Europe, the salaries Of the highest
state officers do not exceed $4,000 year, the
whole civil list costs about $4,000, and the
system Of public schools is most admirable.
Taxes are light; free hospitals for the sick
poor are provided, and the aged and suffering
are well cared for
This, we must admit, is rather poor pic
ture of jesPotsm. The only answer to make
to such showing is to dispute the truth Of
the facts set forth. But Mr. Taylor has been
at Rome and he knows what he is talking
about, Those who dispute his word may
have been there and may not. But, we will
take Mr.. Taylor's word in preference.
There is great deal of prejudice in the
Protestant world against Romish rule and
Romish institutions in general, whether civil
or religious. We do not undertake to be
champion upon the other side, but we have
gotten bravely over taking boyish preiudi
ces or old grannifed perversions of history
as a guide for our judgments of religious
sects and denominations We respect a sin
cere man, of any church, persuasion or sect,
and We despise the petty measurement of
whole classes of people by the standard of
old, musty prejudices inherited from the
grand daddies and grand mammes of the
past. 1t is time to look at things as they ere,
and net ns we think they are or have been
taught to believe that they are Truth is
truth, no matter of whom it is spoken, and if
the government of the Papal States is not a
despotism, and Bayard Taylor says, from his
own personal observation, that it is not, in
| the name OF all common sense where is the
use of attacking him as though he were a
newly risen monster of crime and iniquity
We have actually seen men rave and al
most froth at the mouth, because they were
told that there had been Catholic martyrs to
religion as well as Protestant, and that Prot
estant governments and hierachies had heap
ed upon Catholic relgionists untold oppres-
sions, tyrannies and cruelties, because of
their peculiar faith and tenets. Ifmen can
not bear history and cannot acknowledge
truth where they find it, they would do well
to stop their ears and gouge out their eyes,
for those appurtenances are of no use to
them.

S1KwoRM EGGs.-Mons Maynard a French
breeder of silkworms, is now in San Francis
co, says the Herald, awaiting the arrival of
large quantity of eggs from China, and
they are expected at any moment. Last
year, Mr. j. b. Cadet, of a house in Lyons,
and DR.. Carlo Orio, of an Italian firm, came
to San Francisco and imported for their res
pective establishments, large quantities of
silkworm eggs from China. Some idea may
be found of the numbers of the eggs thus
transported across two oceans, with their
tributary seas, and one continent, with por-
tions of another, from the following data,
taken from the Phare: Each ounce, of Troy
weight, contains 10000 eggs Mr.. Maynard
is expecting to receive 1900 pounds, compris-
ing s64,00o,o0o of eggs. The eggs cost 20
francs pound in China, and in Lombardy,
before the epidemic broke out, were worth
so francs pound; Of course they are much
dearer now. These 1900 pounds Of eggs,
should they succeed, and every precaution
has been taken TO insure success, will yield
2,SS0,00O pounds of eocoons, worth two
francs the pound, or $1,000 francs France
yearly consumes the product of 900 pounds
of silkworm eggs, and Lombardy exhausts as
much as 100000 pounds of eggs; by which
it will be seen that the. 1900 pounds expected
by Mr.. Maynard are comparatively nothing
to the demand. We can see no reason why
! the merchants of San Francisco should not
engage in business that offers such lucra-
tive returns. If French and Italian mer-
chants can afford to come here for the pur-
pose of importing silkworm eggs from China
we who are already on the spot can surely
afford to do likewise"

California Wines and Foreign Wines.

sort of controversy is now going on in
the newspapers, respecting the virtues of
California wine. The Mercantile Gazette,
San Francisco, has, we believed, taken the
ground that California wines have been so
far, of an inferior qnality, hasing the asser-
tion upon the fact that, in late shipment of
wine to the States by two well known firms
in San Francisco, they were invoieed ut 75
cents a gallon, and therefore could not have
been a superior article. TLis statement and
conclusion has brought forth a reply from
Kohler and Frohling, producers of and dealers
in wine at San Francisco. They say that the
demand for California wines proves their su-
periority. They commenced the business of
dealing in native wines six years ago, at
which time they had but few hundred gal.
Ions. Now they produce more than 100, 900
per annum, and find a market for the whole
quantity. The inferiority of such native
wines as have given bad reputation to CAL
ifornia wine in general, is owing to the genu
inc article having been "doctored up" and
tampered with. There are so many internal
scamps in the liquor selling business that you
cannot tell when you are getting good ar
ticle or a bad, until, after inhibition, you
find by the ominous sensations in your head
and the rueful state of your Intervals, that
you have been victmized.
AS to the quality of the unaduterated Cal
ifornia wines, it is our opinion that al they
need is age. This they will have, in due
time, provided the producers have the good
sense, as they doubtless will, to always keep
back supply from every vintage, instead of
throwing it all out into the market Be this
as it may, there is no mistake that wine.
making is largely and rapidly upon the in
crease in the State. 1t will reach in less than
three years four or FIVE millions of gallons
per annum. 1t is engaging the attention of
the grape growers of this region, and Mr.
Covillaud, of this city, has now on hand, of
his own manufacture, what we think is the
pcry best wine yet produced in this State
Not SO much has been said about it as of
other brands and it is not celebrated, but it
is our opinion that Mr.. Covillauds wines, of
a few yirtages past, will yet take the palm
from all of eotemporaneous production.

Reply to the Express.

EDToR DEMocRAT:-ln speaking of the in-
now releved) your correspondent did not
set ont to give reasons "peighty' or otherwise
why the present fire limits should not be
abolished, except so far as the assertion of
well known fact, which cannot be denied,
might influence those who entertain a loose
notion that people who erect substantial
brick buildings upon the faith Of a city ordi-
nance may be rightfully deprived of the Sc
curity thus offered and accepted The Ex-
press man ought to know that one good rea-
sonis better than two or three shallow ones
which have no better foundation thana mere
notion. OF the latter character may be
classed the "weighty" reasons that people
could endure wooden cottages because they
endure lumber yards, when the fact is that
the lumber yards were used as such Jgore the
passage of the ordinance, and thus stood as
fair warning to all who desired to build. OF
the same charter is the assertion that proper
ty would enhance in value, as matter oi
course, where Improvements are made
Everybody but the Express man knows that
a wooden town is not as valuable as q brick
town, and that the contiguity of a wooden
building di0,iniShcS the value of brick one
and increases the rate of insurance about
fifty per cent.
The fact of the existence of many vacant
! I, l hat
they would have been occupied if their
owners had been permitted to erect wooden,
for the "sagacious" editor viii find the same
state of things if he will step eighty feet out
side of the protected district The editor
doubts" whether property owners would
offer serious objections to the repeal of the
ordinance, and he has "no doubt" that, if
put to vote in the district, the majority in
favor of its repeal would be overwhelming
From this state of indubitable doubt, Louns
man hopes the editor will safely emerge, with
the knowledge that even editorial assertion,
with regard to matters which are purely hy-
pothetical, Proce nothing. But as everybody
can make assertions, Lounsman now makes
one, which is this: Marysville enjoys the
reputation, at home and abroad, of being the
best built town in the State, which is due
exclusively to the ordinance excluding frame
buildings from a certain district. AS the
Aldermen have. however. purged themselves
of one insane act with reference to the Fire
Department, it is hardly probable that they
will encourage a general eonhagration be-
cause their good friend of the Express desires
them to do so. LoUNsMAN.

TIE Corn CRoP OF YUBA CoUNTY-Yuba
county, says the Cal. Farmer, has been very
successful in growing corn the present year
upon the bottom lands; some fine crops have
been recently harvested. c. Low, Esq, of
Low Brothers, bankers, has made large clears
ings of land opposite Marysville, upon the
banks of the river, upon which large crops
have been harvested the present year. From
l60 acres of corn the average was GO bushels
of very superior Yellow Dent" corn; from
one lot of 10 acres, two tons of oats were
harvested early, then the land was prepared
and planted with corn in June and so bush
els per acre harvested.
The Low" tract comprises from 500 to
600 acres of very rich land, now being
cleared wholly; only one third is already
cleared Mr.. Low has also grown upon this
lrnd Jerusalem artichokes" for swine feed
of which we have seen samples Mr. Low
thinks this root will yield 500 bushels to the
acre, Upon this land are fine flock of
sheep, herd of cattle and q fine lot of
swine.
J. Wescoatt, Esq, above the city, near the
"Covilaud Ranch" has had very splendid
crop of corn, and will harvest the present
year one hundred and fifty tons of very fine
corn. Several other parties have grown
corn successfully the present year Mr.. NJ
Whalen, J. c. Fall, c. Ii. Hedges, c. Covil-
laud, and several others whose names we have

Death of a Printer.

As the warm sun, of yesterday was setting
behind the Buttes, and the approaching twi>
light was mellowing the sky, there was a
gathering Of sad faces around the bier of one
whom the assemblage had known in the
bright as well as the dark days of life lie
was printer aud 10y printers was he laid in
the tomb, aided by other good friends who
had known and respected him. Brief were
the words of the venerated minister who
pronounced the last, solemn rites over the
poor heap of dust that lay before him. Then
the carriages rolled away, and the Sexton
was left, in the dim twilight, to perform his
accustomed duty.
Oscar 0. Ball was the name Of the depart
ed. He was horn in Alabama, became first
rate printer, and migrated to this country in
1851 helped to establish the Mountain Echo,
a sprightly newspaper, at Downieville, in
1852; afterwards was one of proprietors Of
the California Express, and subsequently, pub
lished the Daily Inquirer in Marysville, i'm
which business he was engaged until
he sold out his material to the office of the
Daily News, which afterwards, in conjunc-
tion with the type and material of the Marys-
willie Herald, became the DAILY NATIONAL
DEMOCRAT. He died in the 9lst year of his
age, and such is the brief history of one
whose lot, we hope, is that of the happy
ones on "the other shore"
