New CALIFORNIA OCEAN STpAM T,N

New CALIFORNIA OCEAN STEAM LINE
am able to state upon positive authorize
that w. Ii. Aspinwnll has gone to Eurona
in part to purchase steamers to put on tho
line between New York and Aspinwall in
the California trade. Before he left this
city he had determined definitely to purchase
certain two vessels-aready constructed
for. tie purpose Indicated, and was satisfied
that he could procure them and start them
on their voyage across the Atlantic at sne,
cifi"aly named dates which cannot vet ba
stated. I think, however, that YOU will
hear of the first arrival for the new line at
very early day. The question arises "WHl
Mr.. Aspnwall provide for the establishment
of a through line to California in competition
with the present line Ella Panama." 1t is
difficult to see how he can do otherwise, for
under the terms of their contract with Van.
derbilt, the Pacific Mail Steamship COMPANY
cannot connect with and carry passengers
and and freight for any other than the Van,
derbilt line on the Atlantic side at least for
two years to come. OF course it is not to
be presumed that so shrewed steamship
operator as Mr.. Aspinwall has overlooked
this fact, or Is failing to provide necessary
means 70 a steamer connection on the Pal
cifc end Of the route. The arrangements if
any, which are taking to secure such throuob
connection, necessarily have much interest
to Californians, for competition is what wa
need as a means of obtaining proper freight
and transportation facilities on the route be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific States.

as specified, and on last Sunday they opened
the returns If any one is to be rea0arded
with future punishment for that sin, of

ISJNNorIoNs.-On Monday last, an order
was issued from the Court of District Judge
McKune, at the instance of j. p. Robinson,
to enjoin the Board of Supervisors of Sac
ramento county, from subscribing for or
issuing bonds in payment for stock in the
Central Pacific r.. r. Co. On Wednesday
the Board of Supervisors of Placer were
enjoined to the same effect, by an order
from the Court of Judge Myres, on the
application of Chas. H. Mitchell.
There are grave doubts as to the consti-
tutionality of the acts under which the
counties of Placer and Sacramento have
voted stock to the above named Railroad
Company, and to test their validity these
suits have been brought.
If the people of these counties are to be
taxed twenty years for the benefit of Com
pany who large number of tax PAYERS do
not believe is intended to be Continental
Railway, it is better that all should know
that it is under the auth ority of the CONSTR
tuition of the State. than there should be
doubts upon the subject.
If the Company honestly believe these
laws are constitutional, they should be will
ling and glad to have the Courts pass upon
them, as the delay caused cannot seriously
effect them, and it i'll becomes them, through
their hired organs, to impugn the motives OF
the gentlemen who have initiated these pro-
ceedings.

Tyy- The s +. Bulletin of Thursday

Ty- The S. F. Bulletin of Thursday,
makes some rich disclosures of the opera
tons on election day, of certain gentle
man who was working for "Rairoad Yes" in
that city. The gentleman was prominent
camphene dealer, and the brother of another
gentleman who was understood to be spending
considerable money to carry the Railroad
proposition. The camphene man visited
the polls in number of wards, and found
the b'hoys very dry and very anxious tor
"Yes" tickets. AT each place he dispensed
money and tickets with liberal hand both
of which the bhoys took, and then ungen-
erously went and voted and worked for Rail
road No.
The evidence of considerable money
being spent to carry the proposition, dis
gusted many prominent Republicans, and
caused them 10 vote "No." According to
the Sac Unions mode of reasoning these
gentlemen are secessionists.
1t will strike the reader as passing strange,
that measures that were to aid in building
Pacific Railroad, should require the spend
inc of the large amount OF money that was
used in the counties of Sacramento, Placer
and San Francisco, to make them accepta-
bic to the people. 1t is currently reported
and believed that many thousands of dollars
was expended by the Company in these
counties for eIectioneering purposes

For the latter office, DR.. Sheldon the Citi-
zen candidate, was elected 10y upwards of
200 votes. The proposition to subscribe
S4OO 900 stock to the Western Pacific r.
r. and 100000 to the Central Pacific R.
r. was carried by about 1000 votes.
