COTTON GROWING IN MEXIco.-From the
Mazatlan Times. of March 18th, we gather the
following information concerning tho culture Of
cotton in Mexico In previous notices of cotton.
growing enterprises in this State, no mention has
been made Of the crop Of Messrs. Koch e. Echea.
garay. The cotton grown by these gentlemen 10
pronounced by competent judges to be the best
in the State. Two trains Of the raw material
have been received at Howell e. Co.'s Factory,
near this city, from which the first piece OF do.
nestle has been made. The land on which
Messrs K. & E. raised their crop is on the Rosario
river. These gentlemen are now preparing land
on the same stream sufficient TO plant 20 fanegas
Of seed, which, judging by the yield Of last years
crop, ought TO produce 10000 arrObas Of cotton.
There are great many persons whose attention
will be directed to the cotton culture this year.
The cotton factory lately erected in the east end
of this city by Messrs. Howell & Co. has been
turning out "manta" during the whole Of this
week. The owners Of the factory have already
sale for all the manta they can make, and have
contracted for sufficient amount Of the raw ma
terisl to keep their factory in operation without
interruption. As before stated in this paper,
HowelFs factory is l04x36 feet In dimensions and
runs ten looms ground was first broken for the
erection Of this factory on the I'd of September.
A great deal Of cotton is being received at this
port from the Culiaean district, and even Duran
20 is seeking market in Mazatlan for the cotton
grown In that State: two trains Of il arrived here
few days ago. The first bale Of cotton ever
baled in this State, according to the most ap-
proved style was sent into this port from Geo.
Pen. Johnston e. Co.'S plantation last Saturday
week, to be shipped by the Oregon, but the
wagon which brought 1t "failed TO connect" with
the steamer, and so il must remain over for the
present A bale or two of the raw material sent
to California as a sample Of what can be pro-
duced in this State would do much towards
directing the attention of capitalists to the sub
iect 1888. .-. VIA. .. .... ... .."

DRAWING 1T STRONG.

The following beautiful tribute to the
brawling, raving shouters for JEFF. Davis,
and the more willy and more dangerous
aiiers and abettors of treason in our midst,
is from Beriah Browns Press of Thurs
day. We would like to make a few COM
ments on the article, but we cannot do the
subject justice. Hear the sneaking Yam
kee sycophant:
"In this connection we would say, that proba
bly, q majority of the Democratic party of this
State are citizens of Southern birth; theiT kin
dred and friends are the public enemy by the laws
of war; their native homes are invaded and desc
lated, and their brothers, fathers, end sons are
daily falling victims 10 the fraterna strife. Men
thus connected by the ties Of home and blood,
would be less than human il they did not kcenly
sympathizs with the suffering Of their own kind,
and did not srdently pray for peace. II is dia-
bolical sentiment which would deny the RICH. of
human sympathy to the condemned criminal; il
IS devilsh TO mock at, deride, OF condemn the
sympathy and affection of those bound together
BY family ties and guilty of no crime but that Of
asserting and defending their right 20 selfgovern
ment 1t is but natural that men thus sorely tried
between public duty and private affection, should
Sionally, under the most irritating provoeation
but there are no citizens who more conscienticusly
fulfil all their obligations to the Constitution and
the laws, or who more earnestly desire the resto-
ration Of the Union il was and the Constitution
as il is Those who talk or act otherwise, We
know, do not represent the almost unanimous
sentiment OF the Democrats of Southern birth.
Between Northern Democrats and Southern
Democrats, common citizens Of California, there
is no difference in sentiment or interest, and he
who seeks to create difference is no friend to
either or TO the common cause
1t occurs to US that these Southern
Democrats, whose sympathies with the
butchers of Fort Pillow and Plymouth are
so powerful and so natural" have no
business to be running at large inside the
Federal lines. They are self-confessed
alien enemies of the Government, and self
preservation on the part of the Govern
ment demands that they should be either
banished or kept under close surveillance.
As to those Northern Democrats, between
whom and the Southern rebels there is
no difference in sentiment or interest"
they are confessed traitors, and should suf-
fer the punishment of such. That's the
way it looks to a man on the outside.

TELEGRAPHIc ENTERPRISES N PROGRESS
The United States Telegraph Company have
constructed, during the past year, nearly TWO
thousand miles Of telegraph, and during the pre-
sent season intend TO erect more than four thou
sand miles more Their lines are now in opera
ton from this city to Albany Buffalo, Cleveland,
Chicago and Milwaukee. And, by way Of Phila-
deiphia, 70 Pittsburg and Cleveland. Within a
few weeks their lines will reach to Cincinnati,
and during the Summer will be extended to Lou
isyille (Ky.), and ST. Louis. Preparations are
now being made to construct a line to the gold
mines of Colorado, Salt Lake City and San Fran.
CISCO A portion Of this line will be completed
during the Summer. A new company has been
organized in Canada, called the Provincial Tele-
graph Company, with which the United States
Company will connect at Suspension Bridge and
at Montreal. One of the most important features
of this enterprise is its probable connection with
n line TO Europe to which the attention of the
public has not been called This line is from the
coast of Labrador via Greenland Iceland and the
Farce Isles, to the north shore Of Scotland The
longest distance from shore to shore Is less than
Ave hundred miles-a less distance than cables
are now successfully working in the Mediterra-
mean Colonel T. p. Shaffner explored the route
in 1860 and again, with the aid Of the British
Government, in 1861, and found no obstacles to
prevent his success. He reports that large
amount of subscription has been obtained In Eu-
rope. The United States Telegraph Company
have informed Col Shaffner that they will fur
nish him with the amount he requires to COM

with Colonel Shaffner's ocean line either at Que

ANOTHER BLowHARD GAGGED.

Some evenings since, at so-called
Democratic meeting in San Francisco,
there was general blowing off of rebel
steam; and pot-valiant orators, of the Be-
riah Brown school of politics, ranted and
snorted about "the liberty of speech" and
the liberty of the press" talked about
military despotisms" and "Bastiles;"
and defied the Abolition Government in
a manner most brave and gallant to hear
Chief among these Bombastes Furiosos,
was one Chapman, worn-out old polit-
cal hack, all of the olden time. He defed
Lipcoh's miniuns and blue-coated hire
ings" to capture him. He raved valiantly
about what he would do, if the aforesaid
hirelngs attempted to arrest him for sedi-
tious conversation. They would shave
to take his dead body" In fact, he would
"raise particular hell" Now, it so hap
pened that there were none of those shire
linss" present, and talk was consequently
cheap. Some one of Chips admirers,
however, was mean enough to elbow the
gait" on him, and 10! and behold, the
" blue-coated minions" proceeded the said
Chapman to incontinendy gobble. Tell it
not in Gath-the courage of Chapman, the
man-eater; Chapman, the destroyer Of Pro-
vost-Marshals, weakened on the turn,
oozed from his fingers like Bob Acres of
old. They took the body of Chapman
not dead, for they scorned to hurt him,
and he was too big coward to kill him
seE-they took the living, breathing, and
perfectly quiescent body, and rammed
the same into gloomy Alcatraz. We pre-
sumo the next news will be that he has,
meekly in appearance, but with a black
and lying heart, taken lip oath of allie
glance, and been liberated. Let US hear
from Beriah on the subject.

of Suffer county informed us few days ago
that he had one thousand acres of wheat, and
very little of 1t would even be worth cutting for
hay. All along the Feather river bottoms. the
crops have dried up, and amount to very little
Some of these ranches have failed for two years,
and the owners are quite discouraged. farmer
of Butte county informed us yesterday that he
had large fields of grain, but ne should not cut
them even for hay. His neighbors. with few ex-
ceptions, are in the same streak of bad luck. One
or two of them have already made applications
in insolvency,
