MAGDALENA BAY.

A correspondent Of the Chronicle.
writing from La Paz, say of the colo
ny ut Magdalena Bay, Lower Califor-
mia
Letters received here from the Mag
dalena colony say the artesian well is
down go feet, and no water vet. The
~colonists are, however, in good spirits
and hopeful. A great majority of the
people are favorable To the colonists.
The office holders, however, exclaim
against this invasion by strangers of
their patria.
This colonization project may prove
a success, but if it does it will disap-
point everybody who is familiar with
that country. A more uninviting re-
gion could scarcely be found, as far as
agricultural advantages are concerned.
The peninsula of Lower California has
one OF the finest climates in the world.
Ross Browne describes it as second to
none, and he has had opportunities for
observation; but for all practical pur-
poses it is a poor country for active
Americans to emigrate to. Outside of
a few valleys along some small streams
the country is seldom visited by rain.
Indeed, in some portions of the coun-
try rain sometimes does not fall for
years. The country is mountainous
and barren-of little value for agricul-
tural or mining purposes. The quartz
mills taken there a few years ago
proved failures, and we are under the
impression That there is not now a sill
yer mine being worked in the country.
The gold mines reported at San Rafael
are somewhat mythical. The colony
is a speculation scheme of Logan, But
Ter and ether Radical politicians, gotten
up on a slender foundation of title
and very uncertain either in extent OIL
durability. The plains bordering or
Magdalena Bay are reputed to resem.
BILE the sagebrush plains of Nevada
and consequently are not the mos
picturesque or inviting fields for newly
arrived emigrants to prospect. They
are dry and dusty, and, unless waite
can be obtained from artesian wells
are profitless. The attempt to procure
water from this source, it seems, ha
' thus Tar proven . failure.

TEE CONTESTED SENATORIAL SEAT.

There was nothing new in this ease
developed yesterday. Several OF the
Senators are absent on leave, and
probably no further action will be had
this week. The Committee OF the
Whole, which had the subject under
consideration on Thursday, reported
the matter back 10 the Senate without
recommendation. The only test ques-
ton from which the sentiment of that
body can be judged arose on Thursday
night, on the motion of Mr.. Hall TO
indefinitely postpone the whole mat
tor. The following was the vote on
this motion.
Ayes-Abrahsm, Bonnifield, Craw-
ford, Eastman, Hall, Hastings, llaz-
lett, Hopkins, Moore, Phelan aud
Shanp-ll.
Noes-Boring, Cleveland, Fox, Haz-
ard, Hill, McBeth, Mccoy, Mills,
Mullen, Small, Spencer and the Presi-
dent-l2.
SO the motion 10 indefinitely post
pone was lost.

RETRIBUTIoS.-The example set by
the Radical Senate of 1858, in its at
tempted impeachment of President

suits in the respective States. Holden

same disaster in Georgia; and now

THE WAR.

The German shells are flying thick

and this above all things is demoraliz-
ing both Government and people. Tn

inflicted by the bombardment is yet
slight, the killing of a number of citi.

THE ENTERPRISE AND sALADIE.


CARSON, Jan. IL, ISL.
STATE REGISTER: IL there ever was
a doubt that there are scavengers in
the literary world, as there are carrion
crows that concentrate the filth of
tropical cities in themselves, the En-
terprise's article of Friday would for
ever dispel it. Like the Enterprise,
Saladin has a morbid taste for abuse
and a strange love of being petted
with adjectives and pricked with the
language of Rominy; but as civilized
nations find grape and canister more
eificacious in war than Chinese stink
pots, so civilized people find that truth
strikes harder blows than sophistry,
and leaves "a more lasting impression
than blackguardism. Unlike the En-
terprise, which is not an admirer of
Saladin, he is an admirer of pre-emi-
hence, even in blackguardism; and in
the same spirit that Lucifcr preferred
reigning in He'll 10 being subject in
Heaven, he looks upon this concen-
trated essence of filth with which the
Enterprise has bcgriined him as the
highest effort of a mind whose whole
bent is toward scurrility.
The Enterprise asks Saladin To strip
his article of twaddle, that he may un-
der>tand il. Let it know that Saladin is
not a scraper of thick skulls, and has
not vet discovered the Philosophers
Stone; but ii he should, he will adj
vertise his ability to infuse brains into
the heads of all who may apply-in
which ease he will be ut the service oil

LEADED.-Thirty 10 forty men are
now lying on the broad of their backs
sick, owing 10 being loaded, caused by
working i'll the mines of this District.
The popularity of the mines here are
that men on an average annot work
over twenty days in any mine or mill
in the District without suffering from
an attack of leading. Whether this is
caused by foul air or like cause we
have not yet ascertained for a certain
ty, but judge that il is owing TO the
peculiar kind of rock or ore which they
work. Miners will have to use the
utmost care in keeping regular in their
habits of all kinds, and when an attack
starts in let them start in with the
doctors advice Immediately. BY OBJ
serving the Unnecessary caution they will

The Legislature transacted but little
business yesterday, the Senate ad-
journing early, and the Assembly
devoting much of the afternoon to a
dry discussion relative to committees
appointing clerks, which was finally
referred to a special committee, to re-
port to-day. Several Senators are
absent on leave, and probably but
little of importance will be done until
next Monday.

TROUBLE IN CHINATOWN.

CARSON STATE REGISTER: The
troubles in Chinadom are likely to be-
come more serious and may probably
turn out disastrous TO tho community.
II appears that those who have been
working for Chong Wing are entirely
devoid of means and grub. and yester-
day, it was really painful to a well-fed
individual, 20 see the poor devils point
to their mouths and bread baskets, in
timating the depleted state of their alb
domiual treasures; some OF them. old
ones. nj ;hIt. shed tears. and others
fairly howled with hunger. \ veal
thy Celestial informed me this MORN
ing that he had given away some four
sacks Of flour and "a lew pounds of
rice. sufficient To keep the gang alive
till Friday. but that this was all he
could do. Furnishing heathens will
do as much or more as the same num-
Der of Christians, when suffering from
the pangS OF hunger, and il seems to
me that unless our citizens DO some
thing for these loo starving creatures.
Il that Immediately. a terrible state
of things may occur II vol can
