No More Democratic Rule,

This State must he hopeleesly Democratic II
the actibn of the present Legislature does not
insure certain triumph to the Republican party
at the next election. The record of this winter
will hang a millstone about the heeks of the
Democracy with which they can no more win
than upon the secession platform of 1861, or the
greenhack and revolutionary announcements OF
1868. There is not single influential journal
in the State but has found it necessary TO de-
nounce in the severest terms some par. of the
Legislative proceedings. The blowing from
the Marysvile appeal state5 matters fairly;
The California Legislature probably keeps a

prudent Democrats that the managers at Sacra-

can press has given the Democratic leaders good
and impartial advice, but partisans are so hun

honesty in the Legislature, that it has been like
throwing pearls before swine. The present
Legislature is evidently sowing the wind, and
the hurricane will come next year.

One of the most profitable branches of com
merce in Japan is the sale of young girls by their
parents, for the purpose of prostitution and it
is OF an every day occurrence to meet in the
streets of Yedo with old women in convoy of
their ugbters--girls from ten TO fourteen years
of age-en route to Yokohoma, where they sell
their children for so many Mexican dollars.
Foreigners frequently become purchasers, as
they have the first offer, on account of their
liberality or they are hound for term of years
to the hrothel keepers of Yoohuawara Who in
turn pay the japanese government their heaviest
tax for the privilege OF conducting the nefarious
trade. Many o: these young girls, fresh from
farmers homes in the mountains, are remarka-
bly, comely, and the beautiful eyes, hair teeth,
lips and brilliant complexion, would be cove
tously regarded by chalk faced girl in the
fashionable circles of American society. A

associating with drunken sailors and soldiers
who haunt these abodes of inquity, not alone
destroys their innocent beauty, and renders them
objects of loathing but in nine cases out of ten,

but certainly is fatal and so they move down

THE LEGAL TENDER DEcIsIoN.-The decision OF
Chief Justice Chase and his Democratic asso-
ciates on the Supreme Rench, upon legal ten
ders, drew a good deal of fire from the press.
The New York Times says of it as follows
The conviction that the opinion of Chief JUS
tice Chase, speaking Cor himself and the Demo
cratic members of the Bench, will not stand as
the final decision of the court, is strengthened
by the very profound consideration that such IA
decision strikes at the power of this great gov
ernment to carry on Il war against insurrection
or rebellion or the heresy of State succession
should the trial ever come again, as come it may
at any future time. And it may be assumed for
granted that the party now in control of the
government with President Grant Mt its head
will not suffer this blow to pass unregarded
The vacancies on the Supreme Bench, will soon
be filled, and as every case appealed to the
court on the point in question has its peculiar
side issues, differing widely, perhaps, from the
Kentucky case now determined, abundant OPP
portunity will, no doubt, be afforded for a re-
view of The present opinion by the full Bench.
