the State than any which has occurred since
the period of the gold discovery. 1t was dis
tinctly felt go far has heard from throughout
range OF country mostly mountainous, OF
about ESQ miles in diamater, and embracing z
both sides Of the Sierra Nevada. The shock
seemed to pass from East to West, with three
distinct vibration, and decrease in violence
as IL moved westward. Judging from its 10,
cal effects the center Of disturbance would
seem to have bean centrally, or to the
cas- tward Of the Sierra Nevada Mountains
The shock was not felt in San Francisco

STATE INDEBTEDNESS.

By the annual report Of the State Trsa-
surer. u appears there exists certain equitA-
bic claims against the State, amounting to
The sum OF $l63.0eo for which no provision
thas ever bsen made, and is now being virtu-
ally repudiatsd. Some legislation certainly
should be had, whsraby these claims would
b placed upon the same basis as the civil
funded debt Of the State. Bill was in
trsducsd into the Senate last year by Sena-
tor Burton Of this county whereby the State
could have paid this Indebtedness on terms
psrfsetely satisfactory to the holders and at
che same time made most excellent inan-
eisl operation. this bill failed, by a majority
Of one only and would have passed, had IL
not have been fer certain constitutional OBJ
jsctions upon the part Of Senators, which
objections have surely been brushed away
BY the opinion Of the Attorney General, in
answer to . resolution of the Senate now in
sessisn.
Ne hspe the present Legislature, will
take some prompt action in this matter. It
has through bad snagenent, been suffered
to lay too loag already. The odiun attached
to terepudiation Of any just debt is the same
no matter how small the amount, and It GER
taIaly looks like suicidal policy to pay near
ly foar millions Of dsllars Of equitable in
debtedness las has been done by our st ate)
and thea allow claim of sl63OOO eac and
every individual portion Of which is as just
. debt - asy which has been paid, to stand
10 oil iateats and purpsses,-rspudiated.

WoSr YoU" DRY UP !n-Some six weeks
since, under the immediate excitement of a
most terrible infiiction Of the evil complain
ed OF, we '-perpetrated" somewhat severe
item upon the practice of fcarrying babies to
Church and to the Theater &c-and denoun-
ced the practi ce as a Z" crying evil" Since
that time eve ry woman in town who has n
baby. or ever expects to have Que, has been
bitter in denunciation OF us. and we have
been cal led by the aforesaid women, all sorts
Of hard and crooked names. Moreover our
editorial confrerees have also been saying
hard things about US for speaking unkin Of
the babies, and perpetrating jokes at out ex-
pense. The last that We have noticed, is as
follows -
The editor OF the Grass Valley National,
hopes that the nuisance Of crying babies may
be abated We will bet our sombrero that II
the nnisaacs had been atated when be was a
gosling. the National would have had some
other nans at its head as editor.
Partly out OF respect to our cotsmp mporary,
who has perpetrated go psor joke, and
partly because we have forgotten where we
did get the item from, we suppress the name
OF the paper. and "in conclusion would beg
our cotempraerlss, to dry up" on that
