THTEvIsn RoDENTs-STRAN NOE
"RoBBERY" OF MONEY BY RATs.-A
few days ago. says th9 /. Liverpool
(Enghnd) Courier, Mr.. Astloy,
hairdresser, of Cateaton street,
Manchester, placed sum of,mpq-
oy, amountingitp 927, betweoni,t tho
beam and he'infteRs Of, his col lar
for safety. The money sonsisted,of
four G5 notes, five sovereigns, and
four half sovcreigns, and Mr.. As
tloy's reason for depositing it in
what he considered perfectly safe
place was that he expected gen.
tlcman to call upon him on the fol-
lowing day fer tho payment Of a
bill. Tie gentleman did not call,
however; .untiltwo days had elapsed,
and whcM, he did call, Mr.. Ashley
procccdcd.to the Gel Jar. to fetch the
money. Ho. was very i much sur
prised on discovering that the mon
cy was gone. After Illuminating for
some time in the cellar, Mr.. Astloy
came up stairs, his countcnance
being so altered that his nearest
relation would scarcely have repog-
niNed him, and taking his friend
outside. Informed him ofhis soriop'
loss. He'aftcrward went to the do
tective office and reported the rob-
berry to Inspector Henderson, who
visited Mr.. Astley's, premises and
questioned his employees, upon
whom suspicion fell. Before l6av-
ing the cellar Inspector Henderson
inquired whether there were any
rats about tho place, and on being
told that they we're very numerous,
ho expressed his belief that tho rats
had pcrpotratcd the robbcry--a be-
lief which was subsequently found
to be woll founded for, on q strict
search being made, fOrtythrcc frag-
ments of the notes were found scat
tered akvnt the raftcrs Of the cellar,
and ono halfsovcrcign was found
upon tho beam about halt q yard
from tie spot where Mr.. Ashley had
placed the money. Further search
was,made for the remainder Of the
gold, but no more Of it was to be
foFnd. Inspector Henderson, though
we'll acquainted with the where
sbouts of the thieves, confosses his
inability TO bring them to the bar
ofjustiee.

So you see the immediate available fund
is annually $3.50, ,000, without one dollar
from the sale Of any Of the public lands,
or. from special taxation, to build school
houses Sc. The scholastic population that
csp attend these public free schools will
moi exceed at present more than 100, 900,
which will give per annum, to pay the tuition
of each scholastic inhabitant 81, ,33s
which, at one dollar per scholar per
month will pay the tuition of all the scho-
lsstic inhabitants Of the state for little
more than the time Of attendance required
by law. But it is safe to assume that out
Of I5O, 900 thousand, scholastic inhabitants
Of this state, one third or $4,000, will At
tend private schools and not the Public
Free Schools. So the fund becomes great
er to those that do attend the public free
schools, and will send them TO school lit
tie over six months in each and every year,
and all this, too, without one dollar from
the Public School lands or special ia IA ion

the Property Holders Il shasta Ceanty that
10 accordance With the requiem. nts ~ la~ be Ia.
entered upon the performances of BIS ofcial dutirs
for the current year lie would call particular at
tentou to the following section Of the Revenue
Law:
IF any person shall willfully make, or give,
under oath or affirmation, false list Of his. or her
their taxable property. or false list OF taxable
property under his her, their control, such per-
son shall be deemed gnilty of perjury, and upon
conviction thereof shall be punished therefor, as
is by law provided for the punishment OF perjury
and any property willfully concealed, removed,
ransferred or misrepresented by the owner or any
agent thereof to evade taxation, shall upon dis
covery be assessed at ten times the amount OF tax
for that year, which would otherwise have been
assessed upon it and fifty per cent of the amount
OF such additional tax when collected shall be paid
to the person or PERSONS who shall furnish the
per centage for collection, shall be paid into the
Treasury, for the benefit of the Common School
Fund of the State"
If Tax Payers were to have a list of their pro-
perty prepared, ready to be sworn to, as the law
directs, by the time of my reaching them, they
would thereby perhaps save themselves much an
novance as we'll as facilitate my work.

GERMAN POLITICS.

The German citizens Of San francisco
have met in convention and placed their
platform of political procedure befo g the
people Of the State. We admire the in
dependence of this portion of our adopted
citizens, and hope they may use their
power to correct the many evils which
have crept into the body Of polite. We
give below their admirable resolves, and
commend them to consideration OF the
democracy who have made theF test 40
opposition to the radical measures of Con-
gress. The "new departure" however.
knock this opposition "out oftime." Here
sae the rssolutions1:-
Section 1. Sanctioning and indorsing
all reconstruction laws passed by Congress.
Sec. 2. Giving the franchise to all per-
sons who forfeited the same by being en-
gagged in the late rebellion.
Sec 8. Unqualified preservation of
religious liberty.
Sec. A. Payment of the National debt
as per contract, so that the burden be divid-
ed between this and future generation.
Sec S. That it is the duty OF the State
to give ample education, and, if necessary,
to enforce the same, all children, exclud-
ing all religious teachings. To encourages
cosmopolitan schools, and not to disburss
any money of the School Fund for religi-
GUS purposes.
Sec 6. Adequate laws prohibiting the
| importation of coolies.
Sec. {. Strict economy in the division OF
public lands, SO that only real settlers
shall enjoy the benefits thereof ard not
railroad companies and other spectators.
Sec 8. A reasonable and proportionate
tariff
Sec. 9. Abolishing all unnecessary. and
expensive commissions.
Sec. 10. That the public morals are
not elevated or dignifed by temperance Oh
Sunday laws, but by the proper education
of our children.
The report of the Committee after con
siderable debate was unanimously adopted
