characterization few Of the read
ers of our daily papers, who hurriedly
scan their contents, see what the editor
says Of the general aspect Of affairs, u
over the telegraph dispatches and Con-
gressional reports, look = moment at
the collated items ofnews, just glance
at the varied miscellany attractively
presented for their perusal, and then
see what the ''local' has to report of
current city intelligence-how few of
these have any idea Of the cost, the la
Dor, and the talent which has been re-
quired and employed to present to them
the daily luxury as well as necessity
the newspaper. Were the pains, sacri-
fees, and expenditures of editors and
publishers properly appreciated, there
would be much less disposition to in
dulge in fault-fnding, because this thing
Is not said exactly right, or that thing IS
not said at all. People and patrons
would be inclined to be perfectly con-
tented with what they now get from the
newspaper men, if they only remember
ed how much less the public got, in
that way, thirty or fifty years ago; or if
they could imagine such a thing as q
newspaper not being published hereaf-
ter at all. It only needs the latter sup
position to point out the consequences
thyt would inevitably follow, in every
branch Of trade, manufactures, and gem
eral business; which would indeed par
alyze the whole interests of the country,
and clog the wheels Of Government it.

"LovE FEAsr."-It is said that the
San Francisco Union County Conven-
ton had a " love feast " on Friday eve
ming last. Pixley called the committee
together, for the purpose of having the
time Of keeping the polls open extended.
F. P. Damn said he had been in favor Of
the extension, but it was too late to
make the change. He said that it was
customary, when a prominent member
died, for such bodies to adjourn out Of
respect to his memory. As the CHAIR
man Pixley, had died, If not physically
at least politically, Of the disease known
as too much card, he moved that the
Committee adjourn accordingly. The
motion was seconded, and carried by IA
to 10, and the Committee adjourned in
great confusion. Damn then approached
Pixley rs if to explain, when the latter
told him not to speak to him, as he was
a coward and puppy, and he would whip
him as soon as he was out Of the guber-
Material canvass. In q few seconds half
a dozen fights were going on. Pixley
made a pass at somebody and caromed
on Conroy's mob by mistake. Banning
Of the San Francisco Custom-house,
called John P. Hale Wentworth n liar,
coward, ETC., and plugged Casey. Casey
let out his left hand as a fender, and his
ring, catching in the corner Of Banning's
eye, laid open his cheek. The police at
length arrived in strong force, and, the
room being cleared, the combatauts re-
paired to the surgeons Office and their
homes. At nine o'clock the feast was
over.-Exchange.

MADAM RUMoR AGAIN. - Within the
past day or two the Madam has been out,
and is well-likewise her family, also.
She says q great deal of dissatisfaction
exists among the leaders Of the Saints
of God, the Bishops and "sich," or &C.
count of the fact being promulgated that
Brigham Young Jr. wal ordained Pres
ident Of the Mormon Church here, last
Fall, before his departure for "hold
Hingland," in q quiet and mastery man
ner. Some Of the dignitaries Of that
faith who have worked faithfully in the
Lords vineyard and grown gray in the
service, have no idea Of being shelved
SO uncersmoniously, and protest that
the Presidency Of the Latter Day Saints
shan't be like the I" wooden leg and
run in the blood. Family affairs are
nice things, but when they gobble up all
within reach and sight for the heirs,
somebody or another will thrust their
sorrows out to the confederation of q
heartless and an unsympathising public.
The Madam says this 10 an Ger true
tale, so we give 1t for. what it 10 worth.

Az the delicate optic nerve Of the human

THE SEvEN-THlRrIEs. - There have
been issued by the government $780,
600, 900 Of seven-thirty notes, the first
series Of $500 900 900 dated August Is,
1864, and due August IS, 1867, the Sec
ond series Of a like amount dated June
Is, 1865, and due June Is, 1868, and a
third series Of $3.50, 900, 900 dated July
Is, 1865, and due July Is, 1868. There
have been purchased and funded thus
far $500, 600, 900, leaving $3.50, ooo, 900
still out, of which amount Sloo, o0o, 900
are the 6rst series, due next August,
and the remaining S43o, 0oo, 900 are of
the second and third series. The hold
ers of the first series are rapidly giving
them up, the transfers being more than
a million Of dollar, daily. The Secre-
tary offers either to buy bonds for cash
at 1861, or to give the holders bonds Of
1865 in exchange, adjusting the differ
ence Of interest on both in currency.
The exchange, made on the lst Of May,
would amount to giving, say a $1,000
note, with accrued interest from Feb
ruary Is, worth therefore 81, ol4.ss, for
a 81, 900 gold interest bearing fve-twen-
ty bond, which with the interest from
January is worth Sl,ole.56, and paying
the difference in interest, which is SAFE.
Thus by paying in currency Sls.56 of
gold earned interest will be obtained at
par, and besides a better investment be
secured !; for even with gold as low as
1922, 6 per cent coin interest is better
than I $40, and with gold at present
prices it is worth more than eight per
cent. Holders Of these notes who keep
them till maturity in August have then
the right to demand = bond dated in
1857, and which has therefore two years
longer to run than the bonds o given
in exchange.

WASHINGTON correspondents try hard,
but in vain, to find something in the
explorations Of the judiciary committee.
There is a vigorous search for evidence
Of the sale of pardons by the President
or ,ome Of his attaches, and Governor
Parsons, Of Alabama, has been sum-
moned to testify on this subject. The
appointment Of officers in the South
who could not take the iron-clad oath,
is also to be overhauled and reported
upon, although the facta in the cas" are
notorious and avowed. Mr.. Ashley is
at Washington, but deyotes himself to
Conover, rather than the committee,
and has passed so much time in the cell
of the great perjurer as to provoke the
ridicule Of the Washington papers.

testimony that is wanted, but it would
prove even less valuable than Buffers

TIE President has been much blamed
for the pardon of Kchnstamm, but if
there is any fault in the casethe respon-
sibili.y seems to rest upon others. Tho
pardon was asked for BY Gov. Fenton Of
New York, the Senators and Represen-
tatives from that State, the leading
members Of the New York bar and many
leading merchants; it was shown that
K%ohnssamm has paid back the amount
fraudulently obtained from the Govern
mont, SIS, 900, that he is old, sick, par
TALLY demen,ed, and rapidly failing, and
and it was urged that the four. years i'm
prisoument already suffered is a suff-
Gent eIpia.iou for his ofense. If all
the Presidents pardons can be as fully
justified he will have q clear record in
that matter.

SOLVENT POWER OF MovISe WATER
1t i, a proverb that the falling drops OF
water will hollow out q stone, butexper-
iments lately made in Paris have devel-
oped surprising results. Pure water
wssplaced in a vessel containing feldspar
and rapid motion was given by attach
ing it to the machinery of the Imperial
tobacco mandatory. The result was
that the feldspar was rapidly decom-
posed and the water became alkaline,
both potash and soda being discovered
in it. The result is thought to indicate
. novel aud cheap way to bleach linen.
Salt water had no action on the feldspar
when submitted to this operation, and
. new feld of investigation is opened
by these experiments. Biologists will
draw from it important consequences in
regard to the action of the waves on the
rocks subject to their action.

"CooLIE" is q Chinese ,lGre; and

presently swear it never advocated the
importation of Coolies, we draw atten-
ton to the fact that this morning it does
declare itself in favor Of Coolie impor-
ta.ion. Its declaration that George

cisco primaries because he was anti
"anti-C oolie," is as absurd as it is un-
true-Gorham not being any less OPP
posed to such immigration than are all

talk about the San Francisco primary
develops its position in favor Of Coolie
importation. Now let US see them go
back of it, as they did on negro jurymen.

DEATH OF THE MILITARY BILL.


In our telegraphic columns, to-day, will be seen
dispatch from Washington, announcing the oe-
feat. in the House, OF Senator SHERMANs amend
ment to Mr. STEVENS Bill for the reconstruction OF
the Southern States, by vote OF IS to 9S Ihls'
it is thought will end the reconstruction business
for the present session; fer even If committee
of Conference should be APPOINTED, there is not
sufficient time left for them to agree upon COM
promise, that will be likely to be acceptable TO Dotn
Houses. The consideration Of such compromise
measure in Congress, would again consume much
time, and it is morally impossible, therefore, Tor
Congress to pass any bill, within the next two or
three days; for if not passed by both houses untl
after the expiration of that period, the President
need not return it with without veto, as the law
allows him ten days for the consideration OF any
bill, Sundays not included. We may, therefore,
take for granted, that the members of the Thirty
Ninth Congress will go out Of Office, leaving recon-
struction where they found it. The whole work,
with all it's turbulent agitation will have to be done
over by the Fortieth Congress, that meets on the
18th of March. Or it may be that the question OF
the Presidents impeachment will occupy the first
attention of that body, unless the rumor be
AAASASS~
round the circle, and, "for the sake Of peace" is
ready to fall into the arms of the Radicals.
Why Senator SHERMAN's amendment was de-
feated, it is not easy to say. Most probably be-
cause the definite proviso for ultimate readmis-
sion of the Southern States was altogether
unpalatable to the extreme Radicals, who, there
fore, voted with the Democrats for the defeat Of
the measure. In this there is nothing for us to
regret. True, the constant agitation in which our
affairs have been involved during the past two
years, is very unsatisfactory, and decidedly in
furious to business of every character. But, bad
as it u.s. our present condition is far preferable to
the several schemes and measures that have been
proposed by the late Congress for our government
It may be-we still entertain faint glimmer Of
such hope,-that ere the next Congress can per-
feet reconstruction BILL wiser counsels may pre-
vail, and that the threatened ruin may thus be al
together averted from us.
In another column Of our paper this morning,
will be found the full text Of SHERMANs Bill.
