TIE JAPANESE IN CALIFORNIA.
Ten md Mulberry Cultivation.

From the California Mountain Democrat, Oct. 81
1t Will he recollecLed that Herr Schnell, who had
been for u long time resident oil Japan, came TO
Ell Dorado county some time IN June or July last
and made purchase OF some lands at Gold HILL for
the purpose OF establishing Japanese colony, TO be
conducted upon the cooperative labor system, aud
for the direct purpose or engaging in the culture OF
trees, and the manufacture OF silk. On
recent visit TO the colony we had the pleasure OF
an interview with Herr Schnell, from whom
we learned the designs OF the colony, ana were
permitted to make personal inspection OF
the results Of the experiments already made. We
assured that the prospect OF the entire success
OF his scheme was fully equal TO his most sangulne
expectations. The tea SEEDS. although planted at
the most unreasonable part OF the year, gave evil
dence' Of thrifty growth and OF vigorous health.
1t seems that large number OF seeds planted failed
germinate. but this 1t was discovered was owing
to the imperectiOn or the seeds, by reason or the
failure OF the persons from whom the SEEDS were
ordered to furnish sufficient quantity OF new and
fresh seeds and which had not been Inspected until
after their arrival in California, and when 1t was too
late to remedy the oversight for the present season.
unfavorable season for planting the terminating
seeds were quite numerous and new plants were
daily making their appearance.
There are q large number or mulberry trees that
are perfectly healthy IN appearance, ana we were
informed by Schnel that the Indications in the
highest degree favorable to ultimate perfection or
growth; that the soil and climate seemed TO be wei
adapted to the culture OF the mulberry and the
health and vigor OF the silkworm Many OF the
guisn are now giving signs Of renewed life and
strength and there appears to be scarcely shadow
OF the complete success OF the experiment, III this
department, at least.
