An Ancient california Giant.

A letter from Rio Bravo Ranch, Kern
county, says The traces of a gaint
have recently been discovered in the
town of Bakersfield, sixteen miles be-
low here, on the old banks Of the Kern
river. The sexton employed to sink a
grave found large skeleton about four
feet from the surface, the head pointing
east. and with the bones he struck a
package of eleven large arrow-heads
and spear-heads, wrought from flints Of
various colors; they we're nicely covered
with a waxy substance and opened un-
soiled, not wasted by time. The bones

A correspondent, writing IRON Peoria,
H., gives the following acc, 1unt oil the
scale dpon which farming IS a. one at the
West:
"The farm of NJ. L. Sullivan, LH Burr
Oak, near Chatsworth, Livingston ,eounl-
", Illinois, IS not only a big, but a'lVeli-
managed and profitable enterprise. 7 ne
farm is eight miles square, containing
10, ,960 acres-64 sections, Government
survey. Il is subdiWded into thirty-two
farms OF 1850 acres each. Each farm
has captain and a first and second
all under control Of com
its evner, and Bngadier
General J. NJ. Miner. There are 5000
acres under the ploWs, over l000e Of
which is in corn this season, which looks
finely. This required 1000 bushels Of
corn for seed this year. The remainder

There are two hundred and fifty miles
of hedge fence, besides other fences;
one hundred and fifty miles of ditch for
draining wet land; two hundred men
and four hundred work-horses and mules
are used on this farm. There is emf
ployed, also, one surveyor, two book
keepers, -four blacksrniths and eight, car
penters. An accurate account is kept
with each farm, and with each man,
horse and mule-horses and mules being
all named or numbered, and charged
with amount paid for them and their
food, and credited with their labor.
There is no more regular or systematic
set of books kept in any banking or
manufacturing establishment in the
country than Mr.. Sulliyan's. 4, ..es.
, The whole Of this land was entered
from Government about twenty years
since by its present owner at 81 25 per
acre. The farm at this time, with the
improvements made upon it and per-
sonal property connected with it, is worth
about $2,000000; so you see we have a
millionaire in Central Illinois in the per-
son of sturdy farmer, who shows what

nobility granted by the Emperor, which
nowadays are not what they were of old
in lGermany--tokens of the personal
favor Of the Sovereign--but which are, at
present in reality granted in the name,
and for the sake, of the Empire The
Reichstag, therefore, wants such titles
to be supported by means which secure
future family independence, and that q
practice should prevail which would com
pei future Emperors to make an ex-
tremely sparing use oftheir power of
granting titles Of nobility. As the EN-
peror can confer a title but no wealth,
and the Reichstag wealth but no title,
the practice of adding wealth to title is
evidently the gentlest way to make titles
Of nobility of modern creation what
they ought to be. ~ iaswt

d In Washington, recently, Mr.. G. Gau-
tier, doing business on Pennsylvania
avenue, borrowed from friend flags
and other articles of display with which
to decorate his place Of business in
honor of the Pope's anniversary. By
oversight, and unknown to that gentle
man, among the flags was one of the
old Confederate stripe. The young
ladies, daughters and relatives Of Mr..

the house, and with other flags flung to

The Berlin correspondent of the Lon

There is a rumor that Count MoItke
has expressed his resolution to Emperor
William to decline the present of a mil
lion of thalers, which it is intended by
the Federal Council and the majority of
the Reichstag TO bestow upon him. He
has declared himself quite satisfied with
the title of Count, not so much for his
own sake as for that Of his family, his
nephew having been made heir to the
title. l easr
As for the money, the smallness Of
his personal wants-he is fond only Of a
very inexpensive luxury, maps-ren-
dered it altogether superiluous TO him,
and he did not think that his nephew
had a claim to reward out Of the
pockets Of the nation. reproduce this
gossip with due reserve, and would not
do SO had it not become quite general

put Bismarck somewhat into fix. He,
too, is said originally to have intended
