PREMoNITIoN-The San Jose Mercury
has the following in relation to the late
railroad disaster:
A young man from this county, relates
that he was in the car where the greatest
fatality occurred, few moments before
the collision. Ills seat was next to that
ofan elderly gentleman who was a stran-
ger to him Tie old gentleman arose
suddenly and said that there was great
peril in that car, and passed quick'yto the
rear. Tne young ulan spoken of could
see no reason for this step. but neverthe-
less thought there might be some cause
for it, and quietly followed, taking seat
in next to the last car. lie was barely
seated when the,craeh came Innumera-
BILE instances Of similar character are on
record. 1t is hardly an evidence OF wis
dom, ia this age Of narvels, to pronounce
as ''all bosh" whatever VIC can not under
stand, or that docs not accord with our
individual experience.

many generations. We at last freed
the blacks, but we have again, our
selves, become the slaves, the abject
slaves Of handful Of 1nonopolists.
Now, O Greeley, sahib, these senti-
ments, which faithfully record, are
so opposite to your sublime political
economy, that j am puzzled how to
reconcile them. All I truly know
and can answer for is, that Arytichund
will not get the handsome American
made bronze chandeliers.
With the greatest respect,
Yours alIniringly,

blistering air hangs mohonlegs and

The Los Angeles Star says: Cattle
from Texas are now arriving on our bor-
ders in fine condition. although great loss
is sustained by the difficulties Of the jour
ney. We understand the GiIa country
is very rough travelling for large droycs
Of cattle, the animals scattering widely,
and it being very difficult to collect heul
after rest. A baud of cattle which late-
" arrived from Tex lost nearly one
half the number on the road. To the
losses arising from this cause MAJ, per.
haps, be attributed the prevalence Of the
rumor that Texas cattle are arriving in
California in diseased condition. There
is no truth whatever in such rumors.

Too MUcn TuRKEY.-Friend Jerry
is a good natured, civil.fellow, who attends
TO his business aud provides well FOR his
family, but has one little failing, in this,
when he goes to his home in the suburbs
at night he is usually more or less under
the influence Of contrabaud fluids. One
night, little after dark, he started for
home with nice turkey, safely done up
in strong wrapping paper, under his
arm. Jerry found the load from the
station to his pretty cottage, some half a
milo distant, uncomnonly rough that
night. He several times stumbled and
fell over all SORTS of distractions in the
path. Each time he fell he dropped his
turkey, but contrived to pick it up again.
On entering his house, he stealied him-
self as we'll as he was able, and said to
his wife, Here, wifey, I've got 'leyen
turkies for you. Eleven turkies, Jerry?
what do you mean, there's only one?
There must be 'leven turkies' wifey, for
| fell down 'leycn times, aud every time
| found a turkey. There must be 'leveu
turkies.
