FOREIGN MINERS LICENSE BILL.-The
bill allowing the mining counties to retain,
for time, the States portion of the revenue
raised from Foreign Miners Licenses, came
up in the Assembly few days ago, and after
a warm debate was passed to engrossment by
vote of 46 to 81.
The vote by which the bill was passed to
engrossment is indicative of its final passage
in the Assembly, and its success there will
almost ensure it's becoming law, as ma.
iority of the Senate are understood to be in
its favor. We hope every representative
from the mining counties will carry out the
wishes Of their constituents by laboriDg ear
nestly for the success of this bill, so yitallv
important to the impoverished mining eoun
ties of the State. Its passage would be no
more than simple act of justice to the
counties that have contributed their richest
treasures to build up the agricultural por-
tions of the State and we call upon the
people of the mining counties to mark the
men who seek to place distractions in the
way of this most righteous measure.

DEAD.-The wife of I. E. Jones, Assem-
blyman from Trinity county, died at Sacra-
mento on the 9th inst. A resolution of
sympathy and coincidence was passed, and
both branches of the Legislature adjourned
over one day, in token of regret for the
departed. Mrs. Jones was most estimable
lady, and the tidings of her untimely death
will be received with profound regret by a
large circle of friends and acquaintance in
Trinity.

COMPLIMENTARY The State Capital Re-
porter, in alluding to this county, expresses
the opinion that Shasta will one day stand in
The front rank of the rich quartz mining
counties of the State. Prof. Whitney, State
Geologist, once expressed the same opinion.
Labor and capital is all that is required to
prove the correctness of the proposition. The
completion of the Pacific Railroad will be a
God.send to the impoverished mining coun.
ties of California, as Eastern capitalists will
then become acquainted with their undevel-
oped resources, and see in their numerous
quartz lodges a source of unbounded wealth.

IMPORTANT Decision. Hon. o. II. Brown
ing, Secretary of the Interior, has decided
that where persons who have settled on the
odd numbered sections of unsurveyed public
lands within railroad reservation prior to
the grant to the railroad company, and failed
to file their g declaratory statements" within
three months from the filing of the map in
the Land Office, as provided by law, they
are barred from obtaining titles from the
United States, as the title vests in the rail
road company when the three months have
expired. After the expiration of the three
months all lands within the limits of the odd
sections must be purchased from the railroad
comnanY owning them.

ENTERPRISE REwARDED.-Last fall the
Parks brothers went up on Arbuckle, and
ser 10 work prospecting for winter claim.
They finally selected a piece of ground,
rlgsed up hydraulic pipe, and set to work
as soon as they obtained water. We under
stand that the enterprise has been abun-
dainty rewarded, and that they have already
taken out large amount of gold dust, and
have realized as high as $40 for one day IS
piping. Persons acquainted with the locali
ties say there is any amount of unoccupied
ground on Watson Gulch, Arbuekle, etc.,
which prospects equally as well as the Parks
claim. and only awaits the coming of enter
prising and industrious miners to yield up
Its treasures of gold.

Tuesday, for the purpose of accepting the
invitation of the Mayor and Common Coun-

GorSe TO WoRK.--The owners of the quartz
ledge on Mccall Gulch, Dog Creek, are
making preparations to commence taking out
rock for shipment below in the spring. The
rock sent below some time ago paid fifty
dollars to the tun, and much richer rock has
be struck since that was taken out. As teams
are constantly passing Dog Creek during the
spring and summer, the owners of the ledge
will have good chance to get their quartz
down to the head of navigation.

The PRESIDENT AND GEN. GRANT-When
General Grant turned over the War Office to
Stanton, johnson accused him of duplicity,
and stated that he had promised to notify
him before doing SO. Grant declares that he
gave johnson to understand that he would
resign the Office whenever Stanton was
reinstated by the Senate, and that he consid
cred it his duty to do so, in accordance with
the requirements of the Tenure of Office Bill.
The President then denied that Grant had SO
notified him, and substantially asserted that
he would place members of the Cabinet on
the stand to prove Grant falsifer. The
latest dispatches state that Seward and Nc
Cullough decline to confirm the Presidents )
version of the affair, and that he threatens to
remove them in consequence

foolishly ascended by the lightning conductor

was dashed to pieces, having fallen from

INDIAN KuLED.--On Thursday night an
Indian called Tom shot and instantly killed
another Indian named Charley Lennon, at
rancheria near town. The shooting was
caused by jealousy, Lennon having taken
too many liberties with Toms squaw, the
widow of the Indian who was hung in this
place somel months ago. Coroner Lynch
held an inquest upon the body, when a yer.
dict was rendered in accordance with these
facts.

STATE PRINTER.-We notice that quite a
number of our Union cotemporaries are adTo-
eating the abolition of the Office of State
Printer. This proposition comes with an ill
grace from Union journals at the present
time, as every one must feel that it would not
have emenated from the same sources had the
Union party elected its candidate for that
position. The proposition, by Union men, to
abolish the Office at this time. sayors very
much of g sour grapes"

ALABAMA.-The vote on the new Constitu.

in the rejection of that instrument. A system

tanning the name of every white man who
voted for the adoption of the Constitution.

Israelites in the United States.

The Hebrew, weekly newspaper publish
ed In San Francisco, devoted, as its nahe
implies, to Jewish literature and religions
interests, furnishes the following highly
interesting data regarding the Israelites ID
the United States:
Though few statistics of the very early
settlement Of the Jews in the United States
exist, we still know that they belong to the
pioneers of this country, driven through
tyranny and oppression from the Old World,
they came here to find home in this New
World. The Puritans were certainly here
long before them, as they arrived as early as
the year 1920; while the first news of the
arrival of Jews in this country, was in the
year 1904 On the 9th of August, 1894, a
ship arrived at Newport, r. l., then one of
the chef sea ports of the Colonies, from the
West Indies. This vessel had on board a
number of Jewish families. These were
principally in humble circumstances, and
settled themselves in the above place. They
soon organized congregation, and called It
Beth Elohim" House Of God). This Con-
gregation numbered sixty persons, and Rev.
Abraham Azenedo was the Rabbi. This was
the first Portuguese Congregation. Since
then the lsraelites have settled themselves

ernment offered those who through monarch
ial oppression, were driven to this country,
an asylum, and granted them privileges not
only to distinguish themselves in business.

right to become citizens, and have a voicesin
the deliberations of free and enlightened
people. In the year 1860 there were IT
synagogues in the United States, of which l3
were in-New York, and since then have in.
creased to 80 in New York and BROOKLYN.
The number of Israelites in New York citv
is estimated at lbs. 900, and in the State of
New York at 90 900. When the census of
1860 was taken, those protesting the Mosaic
Law were proud to say that up to that time
none had been charged with capital offense.
Among the Israelites, 35, 900 are engaged in
business. I 500 in trade, l ,425 in fine arts,
