Tho Chicago Tribune says that on the SOth
OF July. certain promiaent capitalists OF that
city and New York met at the Sherman House,
and decided to purchase Of the visitacion Land
Company,a California corporation. 2 certain
tract Of land lying just south Of the City OF
San Francisco, for the sum Of $20O0:00a in
gold. For the raising Of that sum, the shares
were numbered at City, at q valuation OF $40, :
900 each. Acommitsee was appointed at this
meeting to VISIT these lands, and make re-
port upon them. The tract which itispro-
posed to purchase Is known as the Vlsitaoion
Branch, and comprises SITS acres. 1t is situa-
ted Just south Of San Franoisco. in the only
direction in which the city can grow. 1t is
proposed by the parties who contemplate pur-
chasing this property to set to work at once
and improve it-cutting it up into parks,
bouleyards, drives; AMI business and resi-
dence sites.
-Ope Of the lodges Of those engaged in
pushing spurious paper money is to mt out 3
bllnd in rIeparation for future operations. The
makers leave some apparent defect that may
beeasily removed. The def,ct boiLg thorough
ly advertised becomes point OF reference, and
when seen the bill is OF course refused. But
new issue is at once put upon the market with
the particular defect remedied, and on refer
ence. if found oil right, the note is taken as
genuine. Thus. in tho case Of ths appearance
Of the counterfeit ten dollar greenbacks now
on the market, tho public we're notified OF the
imperfect dots opposite the figures 40" on
each end OF the note. and the want OF period
after the letter E" in SpinDer's name. These
have been corrected, as they could readily be,
by making the required dots with pen. The
lotes now offered are perfect in these respects.
md the defects now supplied having been made
. test Of genulneness, no doubt materially aid
their circulation.
"A correspondent, speaking Of the celebrl-
ties at Salatogs, says: standing in front Of
the Union, surrounded by the crowd, who look
like pismies alongside Of them, are the Hon.
John Morrissey and John C. Heenan. They
are standing within few feet OF each other,
taking with some turfmen, while hundreds are
attentively observing them, many OF whom are
passing remarks regarding their physique,
Two heavy weights Of their magnitude, who
have stood face to face and battled for the
mastery. in what other admirers term tho
manly art are sed)m met with. Morrissey.

gladiator, heayS head, thick neck, broad shoul-
