Dispatches received in this city from
London state that peace congress will
assemble at Vienna on Saturday. They
consider the war virtually ended. 1t Is
but proper to state that the above infor-
nation is conveyed in a private cable
dispatch to a gentleman of this city, and
not through any official source.

1t is stated that NJ. Berthemy, the
French Minister here, who held his ap-
pointment under the Empire, has received
notification from the Provisional Govern
ment at Paris that he is no longer 10 exer-
else the functions of Ambassador from
France to this Government, and that his
successor will be appointed at once by
the Provisional Government. Berthemy
was an ardent admiIer of the late En-
peror, though not violent Imperialisf.
He has not made his appearance at the
State Department since the surrender of
MCMahon.

The Balances.

It is understood that neither Acting
Secretary Richardson, Solicitor Barfeld,
nor any of the prominent lawyers of the
Treasury Department, so far as heard
from, agree with Comptroller Taylor in
the construction he has placed upon the
sections of the act of Congress relating to
unexpended balances appropriated for
public buildings, bnt concur in the opin-
ion of acting Attorney General Talbot.
The controversy is likely to bring up the
question what constitutes proper judicial
construction of Congressional enactments,
and will probably settle the existing mis-
understanding.

STAND BY PIxLEY.-A lecture has Late
" been delivered in San Francisco by
Frank Pixley, who has long been pro-
minent leader in the Republican ranks, on
the Chinese problem, which has occasloned
much comment from the opposition press
1t is argued that he is about to desert his
party and ally his political destiny with
the Democracy because he has spoken his
sentiments on the problem, the solution OF
which is engaging the attention OF the
people of California. There is nothing In
MIR. Pixley's lecture, which we have care
fully read. to indicate that he is about to
proye recreant to his former political views
He has only done what other Republicans
should do in declaring against the encour-
agement of Mongolian immigration by the
granting of further subsidies to Chinese
steamers, and the consequent increase of
facilities Of communication between this
country and the Celestial Empire Let
the Republican party of this coast set them
selves right upon the record, and prepare
vigorously to oppose any change or innova-
ton which would 50 certainly result IN its
disintegration. Say to the party in the
East, let us, who are more nearly concerned,
manage the question, and presume not to
say that we are incompetent to pass upon
matter which so nearly concerns our
temporal salvation Vallejo Record.

INTERNAL REyENCE.-Some wag whe
has become disguised with the operations
of the Internal Revenue laws gets of the
following, which was sent to our District
Deputy Assessor Those who turn their
paper collars as we'll as the boot backs will
please take notice:
"The latest decisions of the Commission
er Of Internal Rrvenue cover the following
points: Parties using paper collars must
use them from their original package; that
is, from the box in which they have been
purchased and three-cen revenue stamp
must be attached to each one when put on.
When the collar becomes soiled, and Is
turned with the clean side out it must
receive another three-cent stamp, and must
also be conspicuously stamped with the
word 'sturned" Boxes when emptied
cannot be used a second time, but must be
DESTROYED in the room where emptied, and
the Assessor furnished with certificate of
the fact. If thrown out of the window,
or carried out in the ccal scvtIle or washtub,
such boxes will be subject to export duty
Boot blacks are required to use their black
ing just as they find it when the box is
opened, adding nothing to it whatever.
The act of splitting in the box and smear
ing the contents with the brush constitutes
the boot-back a mixer, or rectiier, or
manufacturer of backing, and he must
pay the ordinary manufacturers license
Each boot BACKED, for which the sum Of
five cents Is paid by the wearer, must re-
ceive at the expense of the bootblack, a
four-and- -three-quarter-cent stamp. Any
farmer who kills a hog, cuts and packs the
separate parts, will pay tax as manatac-
turer, and must take cut lisencc for the
same; and if he clarifies the lard, must
take out rectifers license
