On "TARE."-Yesterday afternoon
quite an excitement was created in the
upper ward by the presence Of two Federal
soldiers, who, moved by mean spirit,
were disturbing usually quiet neighbor-
hood by yelling at the top of their voices
and appealing to every one with whom
they met, by hard blows with their
fists, "to sport the Cons'hushn of the
Unin Stase an And Jobn-sn." They were
arrested by the police and carried to the
station-house, where, in an imaginary
charge, they stormed the doors and win
dows, completely demolishing the latter.
They will do pennance for their undue pa
triotism before the Mayor this morning.

E,oorEST AND APPROPRIATE. Among
tho many messages or proclamations by the
Executives of Western States and Terrific
rios setting apart the 9TH of December for
Ttankseiying, tie one by General Thomas
Eroncis Meaeher, Of Montana, strikes us as
the most eloquent of all. 1t appears in the
lost Post. The following is an extract from
it:
INV absence at Fort Benton on official
business prevented me calling, in proper
season and due form, the attention of the
people of Montana to this proclamation. the
dutiful acknowledgements it renders to the
Almighty, the spirit of goodness and the
love of liberty in which it is framed, and the
religious observances it enjoined

not fail to be encouraging in an eminent
degree.
To them the termination of the war, the
return Of peace, the quick revival of indus
try in the bloodiess fields that had so long
been vacant, the awakening in fresh vigor
of all the activities of labor, commerce and
adventure. must bring assurances that times
far more propitious than any they have had
as yet are close at hand.
Rapid increase of their numbers by immi-
ration-the several avenues to the Territory

life abounding, and, in their abundance,

naked arm of the miner in his development
of the wealth of our streams and mountains
the Territory thus springs into greater
consequence, and, at the same time, matur-
ing itself for the responsibilities and honors
of a sovereign State these are among the
signal advantages which it is, trust, no
presumption for me to say, must heneeforth

and wholesome condition of public affairs
that now prevails, and for which the deepest
thankfulness is the richest offerings of pray

A New Motive Power.

Superheated or dry steam has been brough
under control so that it may be used in plac
of wet steam as now used, and that, too, il
such manner as to render it entirely safe
doing away with all chances for ex
plosians that heretofore have been so fata
to life and property, and such terror to th'
traveller.
The inventor, Mr. E. Danford we learn
from an article published in the Sacramento
Union from the Chicago Tribune, is resi-
dent of Geneva, Illinois. At Chicago nc
had fve-horse power engine manufactured
after a model he had himself. CONSTRUCTED.
The test of this new invention proves IL ~
be triumphant success. 1t was triea iof
three days in grinding corn, competing VIII"
fifteen. hores power engine of the latest III.
provement. The relative power and cos' Vi
running the two engines is described IN 'ne
following table:

Pressure per inch. ......llV POUNDS.
Coal consumed per hour........ 33t pounds.
Water evaporated per hour.......... 70 saliohs
Corn ground per hour............- -. u bushels
These figures tell their own story. With
one fourteenth part of the fire surface, thirty,
three per cent. more labor was done by.Dan-
ford's little generator than was accomplished
by fifteen horse locomotive boiler, and that,
too, with one half the consumption of fuel.
A correspondent of the Tribune, competent
to Judge, writes as follows:
1t is perfectly safe. By its use steam ex.
plosions become perfectly impossible. Nc
carelessness or inattention on the part OF
engineers, no defect in the stroke of a pump
or in any part of the machinery can produce
one of those horrible catastrophes which are
weekly and almost daily chronicled in the
papers as hurrying from the world whole
hecatombs of human victims.
The same writer claims that the saving in
weight of machinery, furnaces, &C., includ
ing weight of water in boiler, is three-fourths
less than the present engines; and he thinks
will considerably increase even that wonder
full deduction. 1t is estimated that one large
ocean steamer will save seven hundred ton:
in voyage-enough to pay the expenses.
The lightness of the machinery will in
crease the amount of steam navigation
almost beyond calculation. Streams witt
any water ut all will be navigable for boats
while steam will be substituted for horst
power on all the canals. While the light
ness Of the machinery and its cheapness viii
bring it into more general use, its econom,
in the consumption of water and fuel vii
save to California millions upon millions
annually. The immense importance of thi
invention pals tie mind in its efforts tt
realize it. Those who have not read the article
in question should do so. 1t is in the Z nioI

Custom HOUSE MANAGEMENT Under the
new administration at the Custom House,
there seems to be a principle at work
which has heretofore been a stranger in the
management Of our public Offices, and which
we trust to see generally acknowledged.
Heretofore, under all administrations. it
has been too much the case that the Gus
tom House. and all other Government in
stitutlons, have been managed too much
with a view to assisting a particular po-
litical faction, or aiding certain men in
their ambitious designs. Such being the
case, the public interests have necessarily
suffered-not by the wilful neglect or mis-
management of officials so much as by the
inexorable demands of the pernicious sys-
tenn which treats public officers as mere
engines for politicians and political fac
tions Under the present administration of
the Custom House in this city, we see evil
dences of a much-needed reform being
practiced. The institution is not now being
run for the especial benefit of political
cliques or politicians, but fer the benefit of
the Goyernment-th whole people. A man
is not given position there because of his
ability to manage ward primaries or county
conventions. but because of his capacity to
faithfully serve the Government, and his
dlSposltlon to allow politicians to attend to
their own business. We notice with pleasure
that President johnson is introducing this
principle into all the public Offices through
out the country, and we anticipate much
real good from it. We are thankful that it
has been introduced on this coast, and hope
that hereafter it viii be the rule generally.-
Call
The necessity for reform in the admins
tration Of these departments is startingly
great. We know time when hard hit
ters," ballot box suffers, &c, to con-
siderable number, were on the pay rolls of
the San Francisco Custom House, at salaries
of from 500 to $500, whose only duty was
to call at the Office on pay day and get their
money. Too many departments under the
Government have been so administered. 1t
was a Democratic usage, inaugurated by
that party, now known as copperheads' We
have no doubt but the business of the Gus.
tom House at San Francisco could be proper
ly conducted for about one half what it cost
the Government under Buchanan's admins.

RULES OF THE BALL RooM.-A Professor of
dancing having opened school at Carson
City, publishes a grand flourish in the Car
son Appeal, followed by,a set of rules and
regulations, few of which we publish as
guide to some of our dancing community,
not fully initiated in the terpsichorean ac-
complishments
On entering the ball room, great care
should be taken to prevent the appearance
of awkard bashfulness. Assume a modest
confidence and all will be well.
Gentlemen should not forget that ladies
are to be first cared for. and are entitled in
all cases to your courteous protection. AT
the same time bear in mind that the anxiety
to accommodate and to make all happy, is a
distinguishing mark of a gentleman or lady.
In dancing the performers of both sexes
should endeavor to wear pleasant counten-
ance And whoever is admitted to a com
pany of ladies and gentleman, is supposed to
be, for the time at least, on an equality with
all present, and should be treated with equal
respect.
When a gentleman accompanies a lady to
a bali, he should dance with her first, or of
Ter TO 90 SO anu SuOulu ldhe care budt cho
be provided with partner whenever she
desires to dance.
While dancing, lady should consider
herself engaged to her partner, and therefore
not at liberty to hold Irritation between the
figures with another gentleman.
After dancing, a gentleman should con-
due, his partner to a seat, unless she other
wise desires-a lady should not be unattend-
ed at any time in public assembly.
gentleman should not address lady
until he is properly introduced.
If a lady refused to dance with you, bear
the refusal with becoming grace; and if you
perceive her afterwards with another, seem
not to notice it, for in those matters ladies. are
privileged.
Quadrills should be formed with as little
confusion as possible. Contending for either
heads or sides indicates an irritable, and
quarrelsome disposition, altogether unsuited
for an occasion where all should meet with
kindly feelings.
