The Bill for the reduction of the salary
of the County Judge of this county, received
its quietus in the Senate. The original Bill,
as introduced by Mr.. Mentzell, provided
that the salary should be reduced to $1,000
per year; but it was amended, before it
passed the House, increasing the amount to
s., 900. In that condition it passed the
Assembly. When it came up in the Senate,
Hon. Thomas Hardy moved that it be ''in-
definitely postponed" and the motion was
carried. We are glad the Act was defeated.
The County Judges salary is not out of pro-
portion with those of the other officers. and
something besides an anxiety to further the
interests of the taxpayers instigated the
movement. We do not believe Judge Barclay
would object to a reasonable reduction of his
salary. if no partiality were shown in the
matter; but when he alone is singled out as
a proper object for the members of the ''re-
form party to operate upon, the case assumes
a different aspect. The Constitution of this
State expressly provides that the salary of
judicial officers shall be neither increased nor
diminished during the term for which they
have been elected. We are informed that
the Senate Judiciary Committee places lib
eral construction upon this provision of the
Constitution, and hold that, as the County
Judges have been elected for the ensuing
term, and have their certificates in their
pockets, any changes in regard to their sala-
ries would be an infringement of our funda-
mental law. The Judiciary Committee of
the House regards the matter differently.
Be that as it may. before the Legislature
convenes on the Sd of January, the time
during which the salaries could by any means
be reduced. will have passed. Our county
affairs should be conducted upon as an
economical basis as possible; but we
hardly think it would be just or right to re-
duce the salaries of any of the officials during
the term for which they have boon elected.

CHRISTMAS passed off very quietly in Mo-

CHRISTMAS passed off very quietly in Mo-
kelumne Hill. The rain poured down in
torrents all day long, and no one ventured
out unless obliged to do so. We saw
nothing to indicate that it was q holiday,
except huge bowl of egg-nogg which mine
host of the Hotel d'Europe kindly placed at
the disposal of his friends. The day was so
unpleasant and gloomy that it was impossi-
BILE for fellow to get drunk; all the
"spirits" in Christendom wouldn't have
provoked hilarity. We, for one, worked all
day and never once thought 1t was Christmas,
To those who reside in the valleys we fear it
has been a day long to be sorrowfully re-
membered. In all probability Sacramento
and Stockton are inundated, and perhaps
the entire country in the vicinity of those
cities is overlooked. Nothing has been heard
from either place for several days. 1t has
probably been lively Christmas to them il
not merry one.

UNITED STATES SENAToR.-Speaking of
Eugene Casserly, the newly elected U. S.
Senator, the Sacramento Record says:
Eugene Casserly, the man elected by the
Democracy to the United States Senate to
succeed John CONFESS, was to Union men,
by far the least Objectionable candidate
named by the party, who had any chance of
an election, and the one Of all others whom
the out and out secessionists desired to de-
feat. With them his great offense was in
having been Van Buren, Free Soiler in lS4S,
with the additional one of being strong
Roman Catholic. Casserly had more real
ability, however, than any of their men, and
by skillful use of it, managed to compass his
desire. He Is now secure in his triumph and
can afford to laugh at them as we verify
believe he does for we never saw a more
chop-fallen set of men than these same ultras
when his success in caucus was first an
nounced last evening, and it was with very
poor grace that they went into Convention
to-day to confirm the selection. The effect
of this choice is very much the same upon
them as was that of Broderick in days gone
by; they are set aside as mere nonentities or
make weights in the party which they
fancied they were leading and could do as
| they pleased with. We shall see whether
they will find another Gwin, who, BY selling
/ himself. can buy back for them a share of
the spoils, and finally hand over to them the
reins of the party. Our prediction is, that
no such person can be found-not, however,
because there are none of them ready to sell,
for we could point out many who would
jump at the chance, but because, for the wan;
of some one to buy, there Is not likely to be
an opportunity. We assume, therefore, that
the back seats, the very farthest back at that,
are to be permanently occupied by the chiv-
airy until they conclude to start new for
themselves,
