Roseville Correspondence.

RoSEvILLE, March l4th 1870.
Editor Heraid:- Roseville is still improving
very rapidly, and taking the fine farming lands
that surround us on every side in conjunction
with its being the junction OF the two greatest
Railroads in the State, its improvements must
necessarily be not only great, but permanent.
Messrs. Boutwell, 4 Dunlap are, l understand,
preparing to shear their large flock of sheep,
nine thousand in number, they have an increase
oc about six thousand lambs this year. Can
this be beat in the stock raising line in Placer
county.
Mr.. Neff opens his large and commodious ho-
tel on the 18th Of the present month, and we un.
stand will give large ball on the 18th, at which
all the lovers of the enjoyment may "trip it on
the light fantastic" in the giddy mazes of the
Terpsichorean dance. Upon MIR. Neff's opening
his house our old friend and host Judge Thomas
will retire from the business.
Mr.. Editor, wish to say few words about
the Railroad question. We are all against the
report Of Mr.. Romer, and hope with you that we
may get the ayes and noes, SO rs TO see who are
who, for we expect some day TO have another
election, and we hope to be able to distinguish
the good IRON the bad. We had hored that our
legislators would profit by the example set be-
fore them by corrupt Congress- and try mt least
to act honest. 1t is bad enough for Radicals to
steal the public money, and grant away the pub
lie property, without Democrats coming down
to level with the dirty mongrels. "A word to
the wise is sufficient" CITIZEN

Providence, we recognize a disastrous atiliction
and a void that cannot easi y be Glcd.

of his many virtues. commend his exemplary
moral walk in lc and with deep emotion mourn
his loss. in kindness we remember bis youthful
family and distant relatives mingle our sorroys
with theirs and condole with them in their sad

buttons he sent to his relatives in the East and

Legislative Proceedings.

The Senate on the 10th inst, concurred
in all but two of the House amendments
to the bill relating to the supreme court
TIE bill to establish an insurance depart
ment was discussed until adjournment.
The House was chiefly occupied yester-
day with the Senate bill for the assessment
of taxes on licenses The bill was fin
ally ordered to its third reading.
The Senate having recalled from the
House of Delegates the joint resolution
for recess of the General Assembly,
amended the same yesterday so as to fix
Monday, the 4th Of July, as the day for
adjournment, and the first of October as
the day for assembling. In this form the
resolution was agaiu passed. The amend
ments of the House to the bill for the
assessment of taxes on LICENSES were con-
Cured in.
The House, on the 18th. passed both
tax bills and a number Of improvements
and local bills. The House receded from
certain amendments to the Supreme Court
bill, in which the Senate refused to coD-
cur Hhe billtherefo goes to the Gov
ernor.
The Senate vas not. in session Saturday
The House passed a number of bills,
among them the Senante bill to incorpor-
ate the James River Bridge company.

Statistics.

3 1he occurrence Of the period for taking
the census brings with st the usual dis
cussion of its utility. The unrefecting
and ignorant regard the denial enumera-
ton as meddlesome proceeding on the
part Of the General Government profitable
only to the marshals and others employed
in the task of compilation. Intelligent
persons, however, generally recognize the
Importance of the eeasas, and await with
interest the official announcement of its
results. Statistics are the basis of calcu-
lation on all subjects affecting the com
mon welfare of the people, and without
them we are left to the uncertainties OF
conjecture. In Virginia there seems to
be less appreciation of statistical inforna-
ton than in some Of the otbcr States.
Under the constitution of 1850 the E4egis-
laturo was reqAlzad to provide for .cea-
sus every fifth gear after the nationi cen
sus, but nc asst was ever passed for that
purpose, though the subject was repeat
edly brought to the attention of the Leg
islature. In the present constitution TART.
4, section 15) it provided that "tAere
may be established in the Office of the
Secretary Of State bureau of statistics,
ETC., under such regulations as may be
prescribed by law" The trainers of the
constitution must have had some compre.
hension of the value of statistics; other
wise, this section would not have been in
corporated in the constitution. But it is
not probable that the Legislature will. at
this time establish the contemplated 4Bu-
reau," important as the result would be
in certain aspects. In England, through
the agency of such bureau, the psblicists,
farmers, merchants aud others are farnish-
ed with valuable information as to the
average and yield of various crops. number
of live stock raised each year, ETC. We
believe that similar information ystemat-
aeally compiled here, by official agen-
cies, would be advantageous to all inter
ests, and that its value would far exceed
fhe expense Of it compilation.

North Carolina.

The Raleigh Sentinel, referring to the
Governors call for the military, says there
is neither necessity nor excuse for the pro-
ceedlng. There has not been crime
coRlssGitted which the civil officers could
not detect and bring ie justice just as
we'll as the military Bat the evil is that
judicial officers will not do their duty
they SHIELD the guilty.
The Sent'zel adds:
The truth is, the suppression of crime
and the execution Of the law arc not the
motives faS this organization of military
force In the State. These may be made
the pretext, but the real object is to have
an armed force at command to overawe
the people and control the elections in
August. This was foresbadowed in the
passage of the military bill, the sending
of troops, without orders of the War De-
partment, by General Candy, to be qua
tered Oh the people of Orange and Ala
nanc, and by the highly-co ofed procla-
nation Of the Governor and the false
statements of the Standard editorials for
'the last few months-all working up to
the same predetermined purpose of per-
petuating Radical rule in the State at all
hazzards and at any cost.
Under that Law the Governor issues his
order for organizing, armipg and uni
forming State troops and detailing min
ute men, We are not aware But the
proximate expenses to the people of the
State, We can form some idea.
Three regiments Of 500 men each are
1900 men rank a1d file. We suppose
that each suit of uniform, including hat,
coat and pants, will cost $40. Then we
have S54 900 to start with! Where is
your lawful authority for this appropra-
ton of the peoples money, Governor
But this does not cover all expenses, by q
long odds; and we ventura the assertion
that, independent of the oppression and
mischief designed to be effected by this
grand military movement, the project will
cost the tax payers of the State at least
one hundred thousand dotlars
And all this to prevent free election
in the State and continue the Radicals IN
power. Ireamen of North Carolina thinl,
of it.
