that our friends and patrons may get q
glimpse Of how our paper stands among its
leading cotemporaries:
The PLACER HERALp OF the 23d inst. makes its
appearance in an entire new dress from center to
circumference. The editor says "In Difference
10 the long years and faithful services OF the pa
per in the cause OF truth, justice and good gov
ernment, and its unaterable and Interchangeable
devotion to the best interests of the people of
Placer county we have deemed it proper not to
change its DID, familiar countenance shape or
proportions, but to send it on its nine hundred
and thirtysecond visit to its patrons with clean
face, and new dress from head to foot" The
HERALD is a live newspaper in the local interests
OF its section, an unwavering and powerful advo-
cate OF true Democratic doctrines, and deserves
success.-Eranner.
The PLACER HERALD came to US Saturday in a
new dress. The paper presented fine typo

ment the HERALD has long BEEN noted as one OF
the ablest papers in the State, A weekly issut
OF it always contains matter enough, looking at
the sense OF the matter, to set up half dozen
daily papers Of the common kind. The HERALD
Is Democratic, and is honest straightforward and
independent in its Democracy, attacking wrong
and dishonesty in its own party, as quickly and
as vigorously as that Of its political opponents.
In regard to the rights and the interests of the
general public, it is perfectly fearless and always
able. The HERALD is one of the best local papers
IN the State, and as q representative Of foothill
interests it is unsurpassed. The editor and pro-
prietor is Joseph walkup, a gentleman well
known In California as one who has filed high
positions, and who has done so without his name
having ever been mentioned in connection with
dishonest transaction, and whose public and
private fame is entirely untarnishcd Grass Val

COMMERCE BETWEEN THE STArEs.-The
Sacramento Union is alarmed about the
Texas cattle disease. and SAYS:

Sacramento Union is alarmed about the
Texas cattle disease, and says:
"Last winte. the Legislature was importuned
to pass law which would at least quarantine
cattle coming from Texas until it could be seen
whether they were diseased Or not. Then the
evil consequences OF the I'M pnrtGtion OF diseased
stock from that country to Illinois sud Indiana,
where 1t was communicated to thousands Of the
native stock along the line of the railway. was
edge Of the fact that droves Of this stock wer,
being driven via Arizona to this State"
The Union editor should have rccollected
that laws were passed in Illinois and Iowa
to prohibit Texas cattle from coming into or
passing through those States, and that these
laws were subsequently, declared unconstitu-
tioual and void by the courts. on the ground
that this was commerce between the States,
and that Congress only had power to legis-
late on the subject. This decision was cor
rect, as the Constitution of the United States
declares: " That Congress shall have power
to regulate commerce with foreign nations,
and among the several States, and with the
Indian tribes" Under this power the Legis-
lature had no right to legislate on the ques-
ton, and the Union should correct the false
impression sent abroad, both for the credit of
its own intelligence and to do justice to the
Legislature. If our recollection serves us
right, the Union was bitterly opposed to
bill to quarantine Chinese which was before
the last Legislature; but then, that was Chi
nese, and this is Texas cattle, and some
Texas men probably come with them.

A BIRD sToRY.HlA pretty incident is
related of canary bird by correspond

happened to light upon the mantle-shelf

new discovery of the most profound in
terest. He gazed long and curiously at
himself, and thought he had found a
mate. Going back to his cage he select

in his bill as an Offering to the stranger.
In vain the canary exerted himself to
make his new-found friend partake, and
becoming weary of that tried another
tack. Stepping back few inches from
the glass, he poured forth his sweetest
notes, pausing now and then for a reply.
None came and moody and disguised he
flew back to his perch, hanging his head
in shame and silence for the rest of the
day and although the door was repeat
