If we should add to the 1869 list, the expense
of Legislature extra printing, and miscelane-
nous items, which were paid in 1868, for the
Legislative session of that year, the difference in
favor of S68 for economy would be nearly hall
a million, and will be probably upwards of a
million over the year ending June 80, 1870.
In contrast with this vast amount of expendi-
tures the total expenditures of the State of Wis
consn with larger population, and large ex-
tent of new country, amounted last year to
$500, ,8l9, IA and $l57 600 of this for inter
est bonds, being about one-ith of what
it costs California to run the State government.

Weavervile. Among other amusing incidents,
one of our Weaverville merchants attempted to
fill a bottle with a hole in the bottom for a Gus
toner The joke Immediately leaked out and a
crowd being on hand awaiting the result of his
experiment, all hands were invited into the back
room. Some fun was also produced by several
persons being tempted by the looks of neat
package which lay on the sidewalk into picking
it up. At Junction City teamster, who came
to town that day, was Immediately summoned on
a petty jury. After the juror had been in court
about fifteen minutes the magistrate arose and
said I" 1t is the order of this honorable court
that all the fools 60 home" The teamster wan

In attempting to turn around he discovered that
the hind wheels had been placed in front and
the fore wheels were where the other two ought
TO be. This part of the joke had been played
while the vctmsed whpster was in attendance
on the court. 1t was unanimously voted dry
time the Ieamster treated as his part of the joke.

STATE LIRRAIAN just before the Republicans
came into power in California, William c. STRAIT
ton was elected State Librarian by board of
Democratic trustees For several successive
terms of the Legislature afterwards, efforts were
made to renore him by extreme partisans but
never succeeded, aGd in March, 1866 Stratton
was reelected under a law which declares that
the Librarian f'shall hold his office for the term
of four years, unless sooner removed by con-
sent of all the trustees" On the 10Th of January
last, anticipating removal at the hands of Il Dem
ocratic board OF trustees, to be appointed under
a special act of the present Legislature, Mr..
Stratton resigned, and William Nicely johnson, a
Democrat, was elected as his successor, presum-
ably for the full term of four years. This selec-
ton was heartily approved by men of both par
ties, and so far the Republican trustees were
concerned was meant entirely in Kindness to IA
gentleman who has peculiar claims on public
sympathy. But the new trustees have just re-
moved Johnson in obedience to some caucus
resolve, assuming that he was elected only to
temporarily fill a vacancy, although there is no
warrant in the law for any such Interpretation.
Johnson was elected as Stratton was, for four
years, and could only be removed by consent of
all the trustees, whereas portion only of the
board has taken the responsibility of electing a
Librarian over his head. To the cruelty of re-
johnson, is added the meanness of a quibbling
pretense that the board was proceeding to an
original election The whole business is one of
the shabbiest exhibitions we have ever known OF
party private intrigue.-San Fran Bulletin.
