RICE SToLEy.-On Thursday night Of last
week, Goo pounds of rice were stolen from the
wagon of Mr. Powell, at his residence 10 this
place. The wagon had been driven to a shed,
and supposed to have been securely covered.
After considerable search. the officers, on
Sunday evening, found some five sacks of the
stolen rice in the cellar of a China wash house
on Montgomery street. Charley the pre-
prietor of the "washee." and about half a
dozen other Chinaman. were arrested and tried
before Justice Dick. Charley was, by jury
OF twelve, found guilty. This John will no
doubt pay the fine, as be numbers one of the
big Chinese business men. Our Jail has almost
constantly a supply of Celestals, and they are
of that class that would rather take quarters
in cell and receive free grub from the county
than take hold of rocker to make an honest
living. They should be fed exclusively on
boiled rice.

CHINESE New 7EAs.-The inhabitants Of
Chinatown ushered in their New Year, on
Tuesday night and "Wednesday morning, by
the usual amount of hideous noises, combining
the explosion of fre-crackers, the clashing Of
gongs, and other musical instruments. in a
concordance of sweet sounds" most soothing
to the nerves of outside barbarians The
Chinese New Year dates from the accession
OF the present emperor, whose title is 'Holy
Son of Heaven, sole Governor of the earth,
and Great Father Of his people" His is a
most numerous family, consisting of more than
three hundred million members. The empire
is very ancient, and is said By the Chinese TO
have existed forty-one thousand years before
the Christian era. The Ta-tsing or Tartar
dynasty, founded in 1914 is yet in power.
Peking. the present capital of the empire, has
population of 100000. Whatever may
be the actual antiquity of the Chinese
nation, 10 doubt seems now to exist that they
very early knew the art of printing, the com
position of gunpowder, and the properties
of the magnetic compass, which have been
considered By the European nations three
of the most important discoveries of modern
times. Gunpowder they did not formerly use
in firearms, but for fireworks, of which they
are extremely fond, and with which they have
amused themselves from very remote date
They were also the first inventors of two very
remarkable manufactures silk and porcelain,
in which they yet excel. The Chinese are, to
certain degree, well educated, but revengeful,
timid, vain, and deeeitful. Polygamy is per-
mitted, and the condition of females wretched
in the extreme. Poor parents are permitted
to drown their female children, and this is done
without remorse-so saith the historian.

WooLES FAcroRIEs-The following, from
the Chicago Republican, illustrates the benefits
to be derived from wooden factories, and is q
broad hint to some one that good investment
of this kiud can be made in Orovile, as the
wool clip of Butte county would keep mill
running constantly. This is how they work ::
Over at Burlington, Wisconsin, they have
got smart little wooden mill, which employs
some twenty operatives or more. and turns oct
l20 yards of cloth daily. 1t is thriving, and
its owners are about to make extensive addi
tions to their machinery. At the Falls of ST.
Anthosy, there is another woolen mill, which
makes 500 yards Of cloth day, and q new one
is soon to begin running. The business Of
making cloth there is profitable to those
engaged in it; but it is also profitable TO all
the farmers in the neighborhood. In the first
place, it gives them home market for their
wool; in fact, much OF it is manufactured for
them on shares at these mills. Next. they get
better prices for pork. beef poultry, butter,
eggs and vegetables. which they sell TO the
operatives of the factories. Ard they not only
get better prices but they are relieved from all
charges for transportation and commissions.
Instead Of being able TO sell nothing but wheat
or corn, and seeing lis value swallowed up by
the enormous charges upon those bulky articles
on their way to New York or Liverpool. they
DOW raise less grain and more of the perishabe
products of the garden, the poultry yard and
the dairy, snd sell them at their own door. for
good prices, ard without any charges at ali.
