Hon. HARVEY RIcE.-The April number Of the
Ohio Educational Monthly, a valuable periodical,
has been received. 1t contains a very fine steel
portrait of Hon. Harvey Rice of this citV, with q
biographical sketch nom which we make one OF
two extracts regarding our able and esteemed
townsman. The writer says:
Mr.. Rice is native of Massachusetts. He was
born June lltb, 1900. In 1924 he graduated from
Williams College; and the same year removed to
c eveland. He came to Ohio stranger, and with
out influential friends here elsewhere to aid his
efforts for advancement. When be landed at Cleve.
land-then "a village six miles from NeWburgh,
where steamboats, took on WOod"-he owned moth
ing but the clothes he wore, and three dollars in his
pocket.
Making no disclosure as to the low state of his
treasury and the rather dull prospect for an imme
diate replenishing Of the same, he took lodgings
at the best public house the town afforded, at the
rate Of two dollars and half per week. At the
expiration Of one week be paid his beard bill
and removed TO q private boarding house, with
but fifty cents left and commenced teaching a
classical school in the old academy on st. Clair
street. About the same time he commenced the
study of law under the direction OF Reuben Wood,
then prominent member of the Cleveland barr and
at the expiration of two years was admitted to
practice, and entered into copartnership with his
former instructor which continued until Mr.. Wood
was elected to the bench.
Briefly then rehesrsiug the public life of Mr.
Rice, at the bar and in the State Assembly, the
writer remarks upon the bill for the reorganization
Of the public schools of the State which was pre-
pared and urged by Mr.. Rice and from which re-
suited our present school system. He was also the
originator Of the bill for the establishment of the
State Reform Farm The sketch closes as fol-
lows:
The eminent services which be has rendered the
State in the promotion of her educational inter
ests will be long and gratefully remembered by
those of his feoW-citzens who properly appreciate
the true objects Of life, and who wish to secure tC
themselves, to their children, aud to the genera
tions which will follow them, the social blessings
which flow from high degree Of refinement, in
teligence and moral virtue.
Mr. Rice is in his 6Oth year; though his appear
ance is that Of a well preserved gentlemen Of som'
SO years He is six feet in bigbt, erect and o
good proportions. He has as fine an eye as VI
have ever seen; and his general personal appear
ance is pleasing. In manner he is true gentle
man,-mOdest and kind, but prompt and decided

CALIFORNIA OVERLAND MAIL.


The Overland Mail coach, with San Fran
cisco dates to March 18th, arrived st this
station late last night.
The general news is Of no special iupOr-
tance.
The Legislative Committee on the proposed
change Of the eastern boundary Of the State
so as to include the Rashoe silver mines, re-
port adversely, on the ground Of lack Of Con-
sttutional power, unless the question is first
submitted to a vote of the people.
Some tne specimens Of copper, amounting
to some 200 pounds, have been brought to
San Francisco from the neighborhOOd Of Crss-
cent City, Del NOrte county. They yield from
25 to 80 per cent. of pure copper.
The Sixth Infantry have been ordered to
Humboldt Bay by General Clarke, on .account,
probably, Of the late massacre Of Indians in
that country.
The latest news from the Carson Valley
silver mines is but a repetition Of former ac-
counts. People were fOeking thither in large
numbers, and preparations were active for
erecting machinery suitable for extracting
silver from the ore. New towns were being
laid out, new mines discovered, and claims
selling at enormous prices. The excitement
throughout California concerning these mines

An earthquake was felt at Carson City on
the 18th, lasting several seronds. It was so
severe that goods were shaken from shelves
IN stores. A general rush was made for the
streets from nearly every house in the town,
and quite panic prevailed. The same shock
was felt in the portion of California nearest
contiguous, extending to Sacramento and dis
turbing the eqdanimity of the Legislature in
session.

lrevious to action on the resolution, Mr..
Nallandlgham stated the reasons for the cali
which grew out manly Of the complaints Of
impositions IN Charleston concerning aceon no.
cations for visitors. He had received numer.
Gus letters on the subject Gentlemep Of
Baltimore, Philadelphia, Richmond, St Louis.

He therefore regarded himself as limited to
the single act Of fixing the time which had

ting further than to say as a matter Of inform
alton that he had received many letters from
distinguished gentlemen from Charleston Of
the Convention party, who assured him that The
hospitahties Of that party would be extended
to the fullest extent Of their ability to accom-.
modate visitors and delegates He was proud
to say that in his opinion nothing need be ex-
Pected from the anti-Convenii0n party as 10
the change. He hoped no effort would be made
to effect one. He did not believe the Com. had
the power TO make any, and If It were so il
would have very deleIeFiOus and Injurious ef.
feet upon the friends Of the Convention in g.

sing the change if not in other States He had
been informed by letters that many Of the ho-
