A Coon EXAMPLE FOR TRIyITY.-Hurrah for
Shasta county and her new public buildings. We
see by the Courier that at the late session Of the
Board of Supervisors the brick building known
as Loag's Block below the Empire Hotel, was
purchased for the sum of $4,000. The papers
were executed and the transfer made at once.
Now the county has convenient Offices and place
where records may be safely kept, something
which was very much needed.
The same necessity is felt in this county. The
uncoutb ediiee on the hill known as the Court
House, is getting sbaky-in fact always was. 1t
will burn down or blow down one of these days,
and the records be mutilated or destroyed. We
are told that Hocker's elegant building at the
head of Main street, can be purchased for less
money than it cost 1t is much more suitable
building for county purposes than the Shasta one
just what is needcd-and we think Trinity
would do well to follow the example of Shasta

thus forcby illustrated the record of that State
"On this continent, Massachusetts established
the first school, Incorporated the first academy,
and endowed the first university. She set up the
first printing press, printed the first book, and
published the first newspaper. She launched the
first ship, killed the first whale, and made the
fiFst discoveries in the Pacific and South seas
She dgged the first canal, and built the first rail-
road, coined the first money and unfurled the
first national banner. She fired the first gun,
shed the first Blood and gained the first victory
in the war of the revolution. She drew the first
lightning from heaven, performed the first pain
less operation in surgery, and invented the mag

the discipline OF idiots And now, in the latter
days, she came first to the relief OF the CAPITOL
