New York Dry Goods Market.
NFw YORK. December 3

Business is extremely dull, as trade
are occupied in taking stock, and cOnse-
qucntly there is scarcely enough doing
to warrant any alteration in prices.
Certain styles of bTeached muslins, like
Langdon, are, however, marked &c per
yard: the Namaske blcached has also
risen to l5c, and 40 inch brown to same
price. All brown and bleached muslins,
in fact, are held very firmly. Prints
steady and in limited request at l24a

has been characterized by a Heating ru-
NOR of numerous failures, but we are
happy to state they are all mostly
groundlcss with the exception of those
already mentioned.

THE Oakland Transcript, speaking

THE Oakland Transcript, speaking ol
the immigration movement, suggests thar
the best way to promo tie immigration is to
reduce taxation throughout the State to the
lowest possible figure. The Transcript
says:
A law which will compel the SPECTATORS
who are holding large tracts of land to sell
them at reasonable prices would be a great
er gain to the immigrant than any bounty
which it is practicable for the State tn give
him, while low taxation, which would en-
hance the general prosperity, woull offer
greater inducements to come to Cali ofn'a
than the offer of special premiums, with
their corrollary of high taxation. We
wish to see the Legislature encourage
immigration, but in le.stim ta and sen
sibie manner, and that is By reducing
taxation and breaking up land mouopiy s.
far as it is in Its power.

SH HASTA COURIER:

sUNJUsT IMPRISONMENT There Is one
thing which the Legislature ought to d'
if within its power. There is a miserable
lack somewhere i'll our laws, or in the
practice of our Courts under them. Undel
the present law and practice, innocei
parties may be charged with crime, arres
ed, thrown into jail, AID there kept ~
confinement for year or more "'tbon'
trial, until it shall please somebody to have
the papers properly prepared, the party
brought up for trial, and the farce or trag
edy ended. Worse than this, perhaps Is
the fact that, just about the time that a
Grand Jury adjourns, person may be
arrested Oh suspicion of crime or mlsde-
meanor, and be held in durance vile until
the summoning, meeting, deliberations,
decisions and adjournment of the Grand
Jury, and even then Gnd that his case has
not been acted unon. In such cases, and
indeed when indicted, from the time of his
arrest to the time Of his trial. two, three Or
four months may elapse. A man, for hav-
ing accidentally seen a fight, may be
arrested. thrust into Jail, and if stranger
in the city, and therefore unable to give
bail, may be kept there as witness until
the offending party shall have been brought
to trial And for this he has no remedy,
and can obta no redress, and no pay.
Much of this of which we complain, is the
result of that ridiculous, cumbersome star
chamber institution called G-and Jury
and much also is due to the non perform
ance of their duties by some Of our officers.
If any of it result from an insuficiency of
Courts, why, create more and supply the
necessity. The Legislature may and should
do something to correct these glaring evils.
