The Tribunal OF the Seine has March III delivered
Judgment in the case OF the latest claimants to the
inheritance OF Jean Thierry, tho French adveaturer
OF the seventeenth century.
For 2i6 years this mysterious property, usually va
lued ut 20 900 900 francs has continued to dazzle the
tmagInatIonS Of bis fanciea descendants Inerry
made his will Ill 1864, ut which time the bulk or his
large fortune was deposited in the Bank OF Venice
Alter his death swindlers by the aid of forged
documents succeeded IN obtaining payment OF the
interest Tor many years, until at last the French gov
ernment lnterfered and induced the bank TO refuse
further advances until The rigntful heir had
been ascertalned. Between 1905 and 1897 no less
than 364 claims were successiveiy put in ana
registered. In The latter year Venice 1e into the
hands OF the French and the Thierry inheritance
was swept into the Treasury by order OF General
Bonaparte. During the present century actions have
been brought from time to time before the French
ana Austrian courts by people who alleged their de-
scent from Jean Thlerry, but without any definite
result In the present. case the tribunal has directed
thai there Is not sufficient proof OF the alleged

In conclusion, VIC wish to say to the merchants and freighters of California, that, unless they lower prices Of goods and freight, they will lose the entire trade of two-tbirds Of the people Of this Territory. And, 1t seems to us, that they can do these things and still make decent profits. IL cannot be, that San Francisco wishes it to go abroad To the world that people living within
 less than 900 miles of her receive their supplies from anot ther city, nearly 5000 miles from them, at cost of twenty or thirty per cent cheaper than they can from San Francisco that, too, when the land carriage from San Francisco 10 Prescott, by one route, is i60 miles. and by another, q little over 200 miles, while the same, on the route hence to New York, is fully $50 milesl We know tha, great dls dlscss--:s~-~,-.~~.- the roads but not enough to justify the difference in ibe price of freight This being known, we look for San Francisco and other towns south of her, to wake up and give th- matter their serious attention. We want to develop the resources of this Territory, but cannot do it, while having to pay s20,O0 (gold) per cwt for California flour, 5000 per hundred, for bacon, 5000 per hun dred for sugar, and equally high prices for other things, and we know we need not pay such enormous prices if our merchants will trade with New York and have their purchases brought here by Kansas Pacific railroad, 10 Carson, thence, by wagons, to Prescott. Win the basi- ness men of san Francisco think of, and act upon, these facts! We hope so

Proposed Railroad to Prescott,

The Los Angeles (California) Daily Ns.s:. Of recent date, has the following on the above sub jeet
 General Phineas Banning, now in this city has in contemplation the formation Of a company to build railroad from Lo. Angeles v.s San Der nardlno, San Gorgouio Pass. the Morongo Pass and Williams Fork or Fort Mohaye, to Prescott Arizona which would follow in the main, the route Of the projected 35th parallel road.
 Hope the General will be successful in form ing company that will build the proposed road speedily. If not, the trade of Central and Eastern Arizona will sooa be lost to California, not that our people prefer to go East for their goods, but that 1t is to their interest to do so If California wishes to secure the trade of the largest aud best portion of Arizona, now Is the time t0 do 1t.

care. The principle laid down is that the woman shall have equal rights, but 1t does not attach to her property legal liabilities that ought to go with those rights. For instance, the property of wife stands in the tax list in the name of the husband, and he must pay the taxes, while she takes the income. The wife will not be liable to use dollar for common support. It is claimed that this is provided for by the section providing that the wife shall, be liablefor debts expressly contracted for. If family wanted barrel of flour, there might be dispute as to whether the wife or husband should order it, as the property of the one that gave the order. This bill properly goes with another reported from the same committee. repeating that part of the divorce law allowing seperation for con- duct permanently destroying the happiness of the marriage relation, The bill provides for suits between husbands and wives, and would be productive of much unhappiness. Some features of the bill he would adopt but other sections ought to be cut out.
 MT. Olmstead moved an indefinite post. ponement of the bill. He would be recre. ant to his own wife if he voted to give rights to others she could not enjoy.
 Mir. Eaton said the bill had been eharac, terized as almost infamous, and he should suppose some of the opponents were afraid of domestic difficulties at home. He moved to table, and said that if gentlemen in op. position were not satisfied and willing tc let the bill pass without consuming SC much time, he would move to indefinitely postpone.
 The bill was tabled.
