VERY PECULIAR CASE OF HvpRorHoBIA.-The
Detriot Free Press of July 9th, has the following;
Sixteen wears ago last Wednesday James Bay
then resident of Pontias, was bitten by rabid
dog but experienced no serious effects from the
bite until one year from the day which he was
bitten. He then felt some symptoms of the terrible
disease, which soon developed into a most fright
ful attack. For six weeks he was raving maniac,
and all hone of his recovery was abandoned; but
an iron constitution. and skillful nursing. brought
him out from the shadow OF death, and be rallied,
the disease finally passing off. He persued the
even tenor of his way until the second anniversary
when he was again attacked, but with less severity
than the first occasion. The 26th day of June
in each succeeding year has been the occasion OF
a hydrophobia fit the last of which attacked him
one week ago yesterday. at Sandwich. where he
employed as brickmaker. The usual symp-
toms were felt during the early part OF the day,
and Bay requested some of his friends to tie him,
in order to prevent personal injury. Being fright
ened BY his personal appearance they refused To do
So and he continued at his work all day and until
midnight his usual time for quitting. Going to
naighboring barn, he tried to sleep off the dreaded
attack. After while his companions heard
noise in he barn, and fearing that it was as Bay
had declared went to his aid. An appalling sight
greeted them. The poor victim was foaming at
the mouth biting at varlo1s objects, and to all ap-
pearances suffering the most horrible agony, As
soon as he caught sight of them. with eyes glowing
like freballs and uttering an unearthly yell, he
made a rush for them. The party at once retreat
ed, leaving Bay alone in the gloomy hayloft.
wrought up to the highest pitch of maniacel frenzy
ard battling with an enemy that no mortal man
can subdue. In one of his covulsions he lifted a
portion of the roof completely off, which evident
ly exhausted him, as nothing more heard; and
when his friends finally ventured to look after him,
he found INA sound sleep. He was at once Sc
cure and taken TO q safe place where he was kept
for several hours: and when he awoke nearly all
traces of the previous nights awful experience had
disappeared. and with the exception of the eX-
haustion produced by his great sufierings, was as
well as usual.

"FARgwgLL. BROTHER CRAWFORD. General

"FARgwgLL. BROTHER CRAWFORD. General
Bidwell having declined his candidacy for the Gu
bernatorial honors, resigned his Brigadership,
given his military clothes to a Digger, and been
baptised into the Church, he is no longer public
property. There are some ungenerous enough to
fancy that the General having gobbled up all the
good land of the State, and cheated the people as
far as they would stand, is now trying Ito cheat
the devil out of his DUE This seems to us some
what ungenerous. II those who fancy thus were
Christian gentlemen, their sympathies would be
given to the Church instead Of old Belzebnb. As
for ourselves part with Gen. Bidwell, with whom
we have had occasion to differ upon principles of
zneun ct teun with the kindliest feelings and high
est esteem for his possession in an eminent degree

hell is said to be paved. Good bye, John" P"

PgofosED AxEspNRSrs TO IHE CoSs1rrurIoS.
The late Legislature Of the State of California pro-

PgofosED AXESDxESTs TO TIE CONSTITUTION.
The late Legislature Of the State of California pro
posed several amendments to the Constitution OF
the State. which will come before the people at the
approaching election for adoption rejection. Up
to the present time, but little or attention has
been paid to them. and it is probable that their
adoption by the people viii not be questioned
They appear to commend themselves to public IA
vor, and will not probably. meet with opposition
from any source. They are as follows:
Section three of article six is amended so as to
require the Justices Of the Supreme Court to be
chosen at the gener elections, instead of holding
special Judicial elections for that purpose; each
Justice of the Supreme Court is to hold his Office
for ten years, with one to be elected every two
years.
Section five of article six, divides the State into
sixteen Judicial Districts and reqnires the Judges
thereof to be chosen at the General State Elections
who are to hold their Offices for six years, they
now do.
Section seven of articl>sx is amended so as TO
require the County Judges to be chosen at the
general election and hold their Offices as at presen;
for four years; it also makes q separate and dis
tnct Office of the Probate Judgeship who is also
to be elected for the term of four years.
Section one of article nine is an ended so that
the State Superintendent shall be chosen at the
general election and hold his Office for the term of
four years.
The design of these amendments is to abolish the
separate Judicial elections now held in October,
after the general State elections in September.
The experiment of a separate Judicial election is
generally conceded to be failure, as they are new
ertheess controlled by State Conventions, and by
the result of the general elections. The purity of
the judiciary depends quite as much upon the pub
lie virtue OF the people it does upon special cleo
tions. These amendments do away with the sepa-
rate judicial election and unite it with the general
election. As doing away with much useless trou-
bic and public expense, they commend themselves
to the favorable consideration of the people
The follow ing amendments also submitted 10
the people:
No person shall be qualified allowed to vote
at any election for public officers in this State, un
less he shall have paid such poll tax as may have
been levied upon him by authority of law, and be-
come payable during the year next preceding such
electon such poll tax TO be fixed by Act of the
Legislature, and not to be less than two nor more
than five dollars per annun per capi Ia
SECTION %. The Legislature shall have n9
power TO make an appropriation of money for any
purpose whatever for longer period than two
y ears.

BENlro JUAREz. THE PRESIDENT of MExIco.-
