FROM AURORA, NEv.-A cores
pendent of the Sacramento Union.
writing from Aurora, New, August
9th. gives this Intelligence:
Parties are fitting up the mill in
Castle Peak and are gong to work the
Dunderburg mine. when it is g xpected
they will be more successful than the
previous working and a favorable re-
port made from there, as the mine is
a large n and the rock said to be rich.
Several persons here during the past
two weeks have been bit on the hand
by a fly, apparently the common
house fly, from which the hand has
been much swollen and quite trouble
some. Nothing of the kind has ever
before been known here. And at the
present time several persons are suf-
fering from an influenza aud sore
throat; they a scarcely speak above
a whisper, and yet the weather has
been mild and moderate, with no sud
den change. We have had nothing
like it here before this, and it has been
and is now pretty general.

EAILRoAD TROUBLES. - There is
trouble brewing between the stock
ilSlders of the late California Pacific
Railroad and the Central Pacific, which
'ately became the purchaser of the
former. The Vallejo road prior to the
sale, entered into a contract with one
H.h. Haskell for the grading of a
Sn,stiou of the proposed extension
MOTH from Davisville to Red Bluff for
the SUM OF $4,000. The contractor
has;been left out in the cold by the
abe. ikut does not propose to be entirely
/: hence a threatened suit for
,.amages. This proceeding seems to
,Mye brought ito Light certain other
dissatisfied parties who have COM
menced buzzing about very lively with
-he threat OF legal measures. The San
Francisco papers are rejoicing i'll the
iEtieipations OF rich developments
EsaReeiing the great game Of bluff
2:ayed by these companies prior to
tIe consolidation.

POLITICAL PROSPECTS IN CALI.
EORNIA.

1t is very difficult for a person re-
siding in California to form a very
correct opinion relative &C the result
of the election there next week. Each
party as a matter of course is bound
to keep a bold face to the front and
seem to be confident ever if they are
not. The difficulties ofcourse increase
with the distance from the scene of
the conflict. A recent visit however
to several counties of that State, has
confirmed our individual impressions
~relativ to the prospects. The Democ-
racy are confident Of success, and of
the election of the entire State Demo-
cratic ticket. Ageneral estimate made
in Sacramento last week, after a care
full canvass of the prospects in the
respective counties, resulted in fiyur-
ing up a majority for Haight of 5000
in the State. An impression has been
sought to be inculcated abroad that a
decisive change in the City of San
Francisco would be manifested, suffi-
cient to change the result in the State.
There seems to be no foundation for
the report. Careful and experienced
of San Francisco express
the opinion that Haight will receive
about the same proportion of the Ger
vote that Seymour did in the last
Presidential election, while the French
vote in the city, and throughout the
will be considerably increased.
The municipal nominations Of neither
party have been entirely satisfactory,
and particularly those of the RepubIi-
cans. The division in the Radical
party in the city is wide and exceed
ingly acrimonious, and growing worse
and worse every day. Both parties
claim the city. The Democrats are
sanguine of carrying it from 1000 to
1000 majority: but ifthey succeed in
making a stand off in the city the
racy. The increased Democratic vote
in the Southern counties is likely to
offset the negro vote. Haight is gen
orally popular, though he has individ-
ual enemies who will scratch his name
and vote the balance of the Democratic
Booth may u ahead some
what, but not enough to elect him.
Democratic prospects have on
Frightened during the pas;
month. On the whole the indications
are that the entire Democratic ticket
will win.

Girls, Don't Talk Slang.

Girls. don't slangl If is necessary
that any one in the family should do
that, let it be your big brother,
though | would advise him not to
adopt pigeon English" when there
is an elegant, systematized language
that he can just as well use. But don't
you do it, You have no idea how it
sounds to ears unused or averse to it
to hear young lady, when she is
asked if she will 60 with you to some
place, answer, "not muchl' or, if re.
quested to do something she does
not wish TO hear her say, "can't see
i'll"
Not long ago heard a young miss,
who is educated and accomplished in
speaking ola young man, say that
she intended to "go for himl" and
when her sister asked her assistance
at some work, she answered mot
for Joel"
Now, young ladies of unexception-
able character and really good odu-
cation, fall into this habit, thinking
it shows smartness, to answer back
in slang phrases and they soon slip
fiippantly from their tongues with a
saucy pertness that is neither lady
like nor becoming. 81 bet" or "you
bet may be well enough among men
who are trading horses or land but
the contrast is startling and positiAe-
ly shocking when a young man is
holding the hand of his Iady-love to
her those words issue from her lips.
They seem at once to surround her
with the rougher associations of his
daily life, and bring her down from
the pedestal of her purity, whereon
he had placed her, to his own coarse
level.

reads this, will think the matter over

The Next War.

General Gilmore, in his speech at
the reunion oftho Army of the James,
touched on the "neXt war" as fol-
lows: La our next war the leaders
of our armies will probably have to
come from those who received their
baptism Of fire during our great re-
bellion. 1t is customary saying
among our non-military friends that
there is no danger of another war
during the present century. But
have we the slightest guarantee
Of long peace? Have we not pass
cd one-sixth of our time since the for
nation Of our Government in state
of active warfare, not counting our
Indian wars, Fenian raids, and Or
ange celebrations
At this rate one year Of war is due
now. Who can say what will come
before the present year is long past
and in what state of preparation
would war with u maratime power
find us?
We undoubtedly have, in condition
for almost immediate use, all the es-
sential elements of a powerful mobile
army. Our systems of small arms,
our Remingtons, our Sharps, and our
Springfelds are second in excellence
to none in the world, and tried vet
Grams, willing and eager to use them
in a good cause, can be counted by
the million.
We could, beyond question, in an
emergency, place weIl-equipped
army Of half million men in the
field in month but we would have
no use for such a force against any
probable attack. In what possible
manner, for example, could such an
army contribute to the safety of
New York, Brooklyn, and the Navy
Yard, against the attack of even a
small iron-clad fleet, bent simply on
destruction of value. They wonld
probably be a detriment to the de-
ftns3.
The defense must be by heavy
guns on land and water, and the
question is, have we got the right
kind of guns? In my judgment, we
arc too closely welded to an effete
smooth-bor system, and our respect
cd lawmakers, in the exercise OF
their presumed knowledg Of ordnance
and gunnery, have stopped the pur
chase of even smooth-bore guns
without giving us large rifles in THEN
stead.
We are vastly behind our English
friends, in both the character and the
quality of our heavy ordinances
While | cannot believe that any sup
position battle of Dorking will ever
find its fulfillment upon our shores.
am an advocate of that policy which
while it desires and maintains honor
able peace, makes wise and proper
use Of it by looking well into the fu
ture.

The Law of Filtration.

Tho claw of flirtation," as recent
ly laid down by certain judges, is of
a nature to give pause to the froic-
some and sentimental tendencies of
the time. Chief Justice Parker, of
Massachusetts, announces the opinion
of the Supreme Court of the State,
that an engagement "may be pro-
duced by those circumstances which
usually accompany such connection,
and the Kentucky Court of Appeals
has declared that the immutability of
an engagement may be proved
against a young man or lady "by
showing that he demeaned himself as
if he concurred in or approved the
young woman's promise or Offer 1t
IL not necessary that there should be
an express promise on either side, for
the learned and voluminous Mr.. Chit
ty, in his work on contracts, says an
engagement may be evinced by the
unequivocal conduct of the parties,
and by a general, yet definite recip-
rocal understanding between them,
their friends and relations; evinced
and corroborated by their actions.
This is serious, for it would seem
from the testimony adduced at some
cases lately on trial, that conduct
held to be unequivocal evidence of an
engagement was equivocal indeed.
